ASTIXAI.S THAT DISPLAY GREAT
IJTSTIaTCT AID SAOACITT.
Tha Rapidity With Which the Horse. In
New York Knglntt il.nsr MavrThe
Force fllahlt and KkHt Kdurntlnn.
According to report, and tlioro is a
great deal of fact ut tho bottom of it,
quino intelligence lias reached its
highest development in t he fire depart
ment horse of to-day. Even the lag,
tag and bobtail nagi of the depart
ment which have not displayed any
peculiar genius, are every day called
upon to display how thoroughly tho
equine intelligence can be educated.
Perhaps there are few people that
chance upon a conflagration and see
the engines come tearing along at a
moment's space after the alarm is sei.t
out who pause to consider how rap d
has been the passage from the engine
house and how instantaneous must
have been the work of harnessing and
equipping. But a little reMection re
veals that the system which inables
the wires that flash word of the lire to
bring to the scene 'of it almost with
telegraphic quickness the heavy fire
flghting appliances ana the force to
operate them, must bo siigularly
effective and rapid. A visit to any
engine-house will a-sure one that time
is there valued as it is nowhere else.
Everything that ingenuity or science
can devise to maka tho work of de
parture Immediate ha3 been made of
avail.
The engine stands ready for the
road. So does the tender. The horses
are in their stall;. Tho men are loung
ing about or sleeping. J5ut strike the
alarm and in a twinkling all are at
their posts, fly a curioiu contrivance
the hammer that strikes the warning
gong sets in operation a system of
cords and levers that unfasten the
horses. The men come down from
their sleeping or sitting-rooms, not by
Btairways, but b,y a pole to the lower
floor. They are all ready in a twink
ling. And what of the horses? They
generally outstrip the bipeds in re
sponding to the call. The hammer
which releases them and strikes the
gong sends them an alarm they nt
once interpret. Standing or lying
they are out at once and beside the
engine pole. There is no harnessing,
no adjusting of belly bands and squeez
ing of collars and fastening of reins.
The new "swing" harness used in
the department is a complete caparison,
which is suspended by an ingenious
apparatus above the spot where the
horses take their places. Close the
open collar with a snap, pull a ropo
which lifts the suspending appar
atus and they are equipped and ready
for the road. The door swings open,
every man is in his place and away
goes the engine. Clockwork is slow
compared with the handling of an en
gine at the sound of the alarm. It
seems to be by electricity that every
thing is done. And in this lightning
drill the dum') brute excels. A fire
laddie may laj or a mishap may occur
to some one. But the engine horse is
always at his post. Equine intelligence
does not stop at the capacity to com
prehend what is to be done when the
gong strikes. Numbers of instances
are vouched for by members of the force
where the number of gong beats be
came famiUar to the animal, and they
were able to locate the direction of the
tire as well as the men. Some of these
reports doubtless partake largely of
the fictitious, but the exploits of Chief
Eli Bates' horse which have found
their way into print are strongly cor
roborative. As the story goes, the
, chief's animal an old-timer that has
borne him to many a scene of confla
grationwas hitched to his wagon and
standing in front of the lire headquar
ters one night over a year ago, when
an alarm was rung. The big gong in
the lower hall rolled off 2-2-5 two
hundred and twenty-five which indi
cated the alar. n box at the corner of
Stanton and Attorney streets. Tho
old fire horse pricked up his ears at the
sound, waited for the last thump of
the hammer and then started off like a
flash. There was a clear way for him
down Mercer street, but the animal
seemed to know just where he was
bound, and, quickly turning at Prince
Btreet, he made straight f ir the Bow
ery. This reached he faced neither up
nor down, but cut across it diagonally
to Stanton Btreet, and was bound cast
ward to the exact lxality of the lire
when a four-horse sleigh dashed into
the unoccupied wagon and smashed it
t) pieces. The chief 's horse wiw unin
jured, and, feeling himself relieved f
tho Avorsted vehicle, he ttopped hU
career and turning about calmly waited
till some of the bypassers took charge
of him and led him biivk. Chance mav
have dictated his course, it is true, but
if so it was a most peculiar coinci
dence. It require good horse: t do tho
work of the d'partment, and tractable
ones, too. Xo hack can w ell 1 e ex
posed to drag the heavy machines
over the rough pavement at a very
rapid pace, and only ai animal that
readily responds to the v';. and rein
can dear the curbs abruptly and tread
the way through a liiao of engines
and a labyrinth of hoe. Many of the
horses fail under the vir -, but there
lire some that seem t improve with it
and to acquire stren rth a d sp -cd a-
f. me passes. When the new "awing "
harness came into use m.tiiy of the
l.orses refused to work i:i them. On
of them, a grear. powerful beasi, ha 1
to be transferred f.om one engiue to
another where the new harness was
not introduced, as he stubbornly re
volted against budging an inch in it.
Of course much depends on the drivers
in conquering the rebellious instincts
of Buch animals, and the fire depart
ment is happily supplied with sonic
excellent ones. Their work is onerous
and dangerous, too. At sudden turu
hook and ladder carriages and engines
have been overturned, and expert
handlers of the ribbons say that, as
Uiu machines are so top-heavy ao.l
have tho bulk of the weight bhiin'i
tiio greatest nicety must bo exerelsp.t
in rounding tho curbs. St nipped a.s
they are to their spats, tie drivers can
not well be thrown l'r.itn tien, but
they encounter gr.ive peril in a hun

The Whj " in Vegetable Cookery.
Why should beans never l! put
into cold water to soak, as is often re
CJinmende.1? Because all the nutri
tious portion of tho beau is extracted
by the process. They should be wa-hed
in warm water, then in cold, bo tied
liosely in a clotii, be put into biting
water, with a sp lonfut of drippingand
a little salt in it, and be kept boiling
for four hours. Tiiey are then excil
lent if served with gravy, and not with
melted butter. They serve as garnish
around roast mutton or beef, and are
excellent e.iting Fervel whole or at a
puree. To make the latter, when the
beans are done thiow them instantly
into celd water, when the skins will
slip off. Bub the leans through a
colander, and mix n lump of butter
with them. A little stock, or milk,
or cream is excellent mixed in.
AVhy should plenty of fast boiling
water be used in boiling vegetables,
potatoes excepted? Because the
greater tho body of boiling water the
heat. If only a little water be used,
the whole affair soon cools, and the
vegetables become tough, so much so
that no length of time in boiling them
will render them otherwise. Broccoli
sprouts in April, if properly cooked by
boiling them for eight minutes in
boiling water, will bo tender as mar
row; but, if not properly done, hours
will not cook them.
Why should onions be always cut in
round and very thin rings? Because
tho fiber is thus cut across, and in so
cutting them, whether for frying or
for making sauce, they are rendered
very tender when cooked. With tur
nips and carrots it is just the same ;
neither of the three should be split or
cut in any other way.
Why should paisley never bo boiled
with "toda only boiling water and
salt? Because parsley, liaving no oil
in it, would be spoiled with soda and
all flavor would be extracted. All
parsley should be picked free from the
stem, be put into plenty of boiling
water with salt and in summer be
boiled only one minute, and in winter
two minutes, and be strained and
chopped on the back of a plate. If
only a little water is used in boiling it,
the water becomes brown, and the
parsley tough and ill flavored.
Why should vinegar for pickling
with never be boiled? Because boil
ing takes all the strength from it.
AVhatever vegetables are to bo pickled
should first be made soft with boiling
water strong with salt and then be
well drained and the vinegar poured
over.
Why should two ounces of salt and
a bit of washing soda always be put
in the water to boil greens in? Be
cause the salt crisps the greens and
flavors them, and the soda extracts the
oil, which is greatly injurious to the
digestion. Germuntown Telegraph.
How Gold Rings Are Made.
A Syracuse (N. Y.) Herald reporter
has been watching tho process of
making plain gold rings at a factory
in that city. After describing how bars
of gold were obtained from a handful
of otd rings, chains and watch cases,
all thrown into a crucible the size of a
coffee-pot, he continues : The bars
seen wer i nine and fifteen inches long.
A bar fifteen inches long, about two
inches wide and three-sixteenths of an
inch thick, was worth $1,000. It would
make 300 four-pennyweight rings. A
dozen processes and twenty minutes
of time are required to change tho bar
into merchantable ring.. A pair of
shears, invented by Mr. Iloweth, the
proprietor of the factory, cuts the bar
into strips. By the turn of a wheel
one, two or three times the guillotine
like blade of the shears chops the bar
into slices one, two or three-sixteenths
of an inch wide. A rolling machine
presses out the strips and makes them
rlat or grooved. Each strip is then
put under the blowpipe and annealed.
The oxide of copper corns to the
surface and is put into a pickle of
sulphuric acid. The bit of gold is
stamped with its quality and the name
of the matter and is put through a
machine that bencis it to the shape of
a ring, the same machine making a
ring of any size. The ends are soldered
with tin alloy of inferior fineness to
the quality of tho ring. "Many
people imagine," said Mr. Iloweth,
"that rings are run in a mold because
they can't see where they are guide rjd.
Tho ring spins through the turning
lathe s, is rounded and pared and pol
ished, first with tripoli and then with
steel filings and rouge. One handful
of old jewelry has turned into fifteen
shining rings. They are now ready
for the market and matrimony."
The waste of gold is surprising. A
pine floor laid in a gold worker's shop
in ten years bee anes worth $150 per
foot. Mr. Iloweth once bought for
less than $50 some sweeping that gave
1208 worth of t;old. A tub in his cel
lar, into which is blown the dust from
a polishing lathe, a3iuniukitej fifty
dollars a year Nothing is destroyed,
1 ruin the coke which heats the cruci
ble to the t iwel on which the workman
wipes his hands.
Almost daily Mr. Iloweth puts into
the melting-pot rings' that have tho
named of lovers and sweethearts.
Women bring plated family "heir
looms" and when nitric acid has
shown their worthbssness accuse the
tester of not knowing pure gold when
he sees it. A workman in Mr. Howeth's
shop carried off on the tip of his moist
ened linger thirty dollars of filings in
a few weeks. Workmen sometimes
oil their hair and then run their fingers
through it, leaving a depo.-it of gold
particles which they afterward Mash
uu'.

The moral nmt lonl responsibility of jm
rents, in tho cure of their children is. f r
(nnntely, nttrnctiiitf the cerious nttention of
tlio better portion of the entire country. The
nmny instonre of chiht-beiilina, oppression
nnd other forms of cruelty which linve come
to liijht, (lemnnil ttnit something be done;
nnd it i erntifyitiK to l.n jw Hint thn people
nre becominif thoroughly n roused. Whether
the cruelty be in the form of physic il vio
lence or physical neglect mutters not tho
prirvciplo in both enscs is tho same. The ninn
or vnmnn who neglects his or heron health
may be pnriloneit, as tho continences full
npon tho individual alone; but the parent or
Kiinrilian who permits the inroads of disease
upon the inuot eat ones dependent upon him
for protection, is criminally liable in the
siirht of (io;l, however he niny appear in the
eyes of men. There nre, however, parents
that intend to care for their children, hut,
who through curelo'sness or the urgency nf
other dut.es, permit, them to become the in
nocent victims of disease. Such parents
niny be guilt less of intentional wrong, but
the disastrous result npon their children nro
just 88 urea.
These nro truths which must be manifest
to every worthy parent and especially in a
vicinity whore the unknown ellects of the nt
mosphere, the water nnd the general ten
dency to malaria nre so great. There nre
many families in this locality who have been
called npon to mourn untimely losses, even
when the greatost euro was exercised; but
the experience of one only w ill bo given: U
is that of the late W. O. Thomas. The chil
dren were nil most promisirjr, but for some
unexplained reason their heHiih and strength
seemed to gradually lessen until their friends
feared they were the victims of consump
tion, vino by one they sickened nnd died,
until three had departed nnd two of the sur
viving brothers wore also taken ill. Their
names were Hennon and Kdward. llormon,
however, seemed the stronger of the two:
and while his younger brother was confine I
to the house constantly, nnd to his bed mncli
of the time, Hermon was ablo to be about,
but in so weak a condition t lint ho had no de
sire to play. Eddie's symptoms were terri
ble. Ho found dilliculty in retaining food
upon his stomach: was restless and irritable,
and out of his head frequently. At
vnrions times three different physicians
visited him; nnd each one told his
friends he could not live. He liually got so
low that death was only oonsiderod n matter
of a few days. At thn critical time his
elder brothers, aroused ahnost to the pitch of
denperntion by the three deaths thnt had so
recently occurred, nnd the other one staring
them in the face, resolved to take the case
into their own hands. They accordingly
did so, and securod n remedy that was then
being universally used, and began giving it
to him. Its effect ut tirst. was slight, but any
improvement was considered n good symp
tom. By degrees his strength returned; ho
was ablo to eat withu relish, then walkabout
the house; and finally ho regained complete
healih and strength. The boy was nil re
joiced over his recovery that, accompanied
by the editor of this paper, ho went before
Justice Charles K. Miller and made oath to
the facts of his sickness as above rwlated,
nnd that he was restored to perfect healt h by
the use of Warner's Safe Kidney nnd Liver
Cnre. Now, Edward Thomas' parents,
while they lived, undoubtedly, provided
faithfully for the wnnts of all thoir children;
and jet theseeds of disenso had taken deep
root. Their care in one direction had been,
counteracted by unknown carelessness in
another. There love was sincere, but wholly
misdirected. They should have known
that children are just as liable to kidney
nud liver diseases Ra grown up peo
ple : and that the fatality of Uright's disease
of the kidneys is just as great among little
children as with adults. This is a serious
subject. Hereditary traits : tho after conse
quences of measles and scarlet fover, diph
theria and the passing troubles which so
easily become chronic, all demand the
greatest care and caution. No c ise of cholera
infantum, measles, scarletina, or diphtheria
was ever virulent while tho child's kidneys
and liver were hefllthy. It would simply bo
nn impossibility. . These important orgnns.
of the body aro just forming within tho
child nnd growing with its growth ; and they
can bo trained to strength and health a
readily ns the little mind can be trained tu
truth and uprightness.
The importiuico of carefully watching the
slightest troubles of the child, and especially
those affecting the kidneys and liver, cannot
be too strongly emphasized. Children re
spond so readily to the proper remedies and
are so sensitive to disease, Unit it in a nia to
deprive them of one at the risk of incurring
the other. By a judicious treatment thetm
essential organs can be developed so that n
strong constitution, nble to resist the rtroitds
of disease through coming years, shall be
the result-

Costly Tapestries.
The municipal authorities of Paris
own tapestries reckoned to be worth
$507,623. Unfortunately many of
them are in a deplorable condition.
Some have lost their borders, which is
greatly to be regretted, for the signa
ture of the artists to whom they are
due, the date of their manufacture,
the place where made, were commonly
in the borders. Others have been so
often used as hangings that they are
rent in many places. The municipal
authorities intend to have them photo
graphed (cost 1,522) and mended
(cost 110,370) by Leger, the famous
tapestry mender. When mended they
will be hung in a room of the new
Hotel de Ville, all except five, which
came from St. Gervais church. These
five were made in the Louvre; the
designs were by Lesueur, l'hilippe de
Champagne and Sebastian Bourdon;
the tapestry was made by the most
celebrated makers of the early part of
the seventeenth century; they are the
only tapestries in the world of which
no second copy was made. They are
to be hung in M usee t.'arnavidet, the

Cutting the Gortllan Knot." t
"The Gordinn Knot" is a phrase re
ferring to one of the celebrated Gre
cian myths. The name is derived
from that of Gordius. a legendiary
king of l'hrygia, and tho father of tha
Midas who was fabled to turn every
thing he touched Into gold. It is re
lated of Gordius that ho was originally
a peasant, until one day it chanced
that while plowing an eagle alighted
upon his yoke of oxen and stood there
until evening. Determined to unravel
the meaning of this sign he went to
consult the soothsayers of Telmessus,
and was informed that his family
should become great. A prophetess
whom he met at this time became his
wife. When their son Midas had
grown to manhood the country was
rent with civil dissensions, and an
oracle declared that a car would bring
the country u new king, and with him
the end of their disturbance While
they wero deliberating Gordius, with
his wife and son, unexpectedly ap
peared, riding in a rude wagon, the
yoke of which was fastened to the pole
by a complicated mass of cordage.
Gordius, being hailed as king, at once
consecrated the yoke of his team to
Jupiter, in the Acropolis of Gordium.
An oracle now declared that whoever
should untie its artfully made knot
would become master of Asia. It Is
said that Alexander the Great, in his
march toward l'crsia, ascended to the
citadel, amid tho eager expectation
both of the Macedonians and the in
habitants of Asia Minor, and to have
fulfilled the prophecy by cutting the
famous Gordianknot asunder with his
sword.

" PurliiR tho past six or seven years 1 nave been se

any part of my housework. I have had alsoaflut
teriiiK of the heart, and was terribly distressed for
breath. I was very miserable, and completely worn
out and discouraged; I had no ambition to under
take to do anything, and barely siimcient stiviitith
to render existence desirable, having failed to find
any relief from the doctor's prescriptions. At this
