Some Good Scotch Stories,
At a dinner last night at the White
friars Club, writes a London corres
pondent, I met Sir Daniel Maonee, the
veteran President of the Scottish Acad
emy, and the Secretary of that famous
institution, Mr. Brodie. a well known
sculptor. They are in Loudon just now
to represent Scottish art Jit the Royal
Academy. Sir Daniel i Terr like the
portrait of his great countryman, Sir
Walter Scott. A square headed, white
haired man, with an Intellect iial, genial,
wiuuiug face. He srtak with suffi
cient accent to make his English musi
cal w ith the northern burr, and like all
the artistic and cultured Scotchmen 1
l:nve ever met, he is full of auecdotes.
After dinner, in a suug corner, we
' were talking about the -Scottish Sab
bath. "The Secretary of the Acad-
ruiy," remarked Sir Daniel, "said rather
a good thing to me. I did not get his
notice of varnishing day until Satur
day, and as I had to lie here by Monday
. I had to break the Sabbath. I was just
hauling him over the coals for it when
he answered uie: "You need not have
broken the Sabbath; if you had started
on Saturday night you'd have been
travelling in England on Sunday."
The point is a trille subtle, but it is good
satire ami I leave it where it is. "I
met a iiiglilander." said Sir Daniel,
"who had settled the question of Sab
bath breaking at a very fine point. I
was Ashing on a Scotch loch with a
party. Among our provision was a
ham. On Sunday I asked the inn
keeper to cut it in two, one-half for boil
ing to carry with us. the other for gril
ling to eat indoors. Jamie produced a
knife, but then bethought himself that
a knife would not cut through the bone.
"Have you not got a saw?" "Ay," he
replied, "but dinna you ken it's the
Sabbath? I would na like to use a saw
on the Sabbath !"
Mr. Brodie is a capital story teller,
acting his incidents with force and ac
tion. I had narrated to him the anec
dote of the little snake with which the
American barkeeper frightened certain
heavy tojers by suggestions of delirium
tremens, when Brodie was reminded of
a hard drinker in his own parish over
the border: "I knew the fellow right
well. One day he came to me gasping
and begging me to lend him my gun.
What for?' 'Oil lend me the gun !' he
exclaimed widly, and clutched at the
weapon. 'What d'ye want man ? you're
suffering from drink. You don't want
to commit suicide?' Xae,' he said,
but I'm vera lad and I want to gie
mvsel an an fu fright.' " I found that
Brodie and mylf were old friends of
Mr. Snerrill, member of Parliament
for Worcester City, and Ed w a rd Wilson
a great railway engineer, all Scotch- !
men, all story tellers. I was a neigh-
bor of Wiln's once. He had Mr.

"What d'ye think of that mon, Petter?"
he asked. "He's sent me one of their

"Your naiut-r" I said, inquiringly.
"My name, yes he's writ 'Edward

Then he roared with laughter, "which
I take to be a dom'd insult it's as good
as to say I'm as big a leear as Karon

American Fruit ia 1-lttrope.
Euroje is now taking a surprising
qiiautity of American fruit. The pur
chases have amounted to over $2,500,
uou worth since last June, compared
with $00,000 in the same period the
year before. Dried apples figure largely
in this movement; this country has ex
ported over 12,0Kl,000 pounds of them
since last June, compared with 522,000
pounds the previous year. This new
addition to the trade of the United
States isduetoan invention, which has
occupied itself of late with improved
methods for drying and preserving for
transporting fruit. The greatest progress
has been made in the way of dryers.
Within year some notable inventions
in this line have been perfected, which
are a great acquisition to the resources
of the country. The fruit dryer bids
fair hereafter to be as much of a neces
sity to every farming commuuity as
the cider mill and the cheese factory.

Profitable Stock Breeding. It Is
an undeniable fact that one of the great
est element! of success In stock breed
ing.lies in careful and judicious feed inc.
We often publish statements of enor
mous weights attained at a given age,
by cattle, bogs ana other kinds of farm
stock, as an Illustration of the superU
ority or good blood over scrub stock;
but we should never lose eight of the
fact that these very satisfactory results
are attained only by men who have good
stock and by no others. Good blood is
unquestionably essential as a founda
tion; but unless this be supplemented
by care, attention, and generous feeding
on the part of the breeder, the result is
anything but satisfactory, no matter
how excellent the stock may be in point
of breeding. This is especially true of
many ot our improved breeds of domes
tic animals. They are usually the pro
duct or many generations of caret ul
selection and generous feeding, very
greatly removed from the original type.
and wholly unused to shifting for them
selves; nence, u they or tnelr produce
tie subjected to neglect, put upon scanty
fare, and exposed to cold, chilly rains.
and driving, piercing snow-storms, it
cannot be expected that they will thrive
equally as well as when under gener
ous feeding and proper shelter.
It is high lime that farmers generally
should understand that it does not pay
to keep more stock on the farm than can
be well fed and well cared for. One
cow well fed and properly protected
from Inclement weather, will give more
milk during the winter months than
three of the half-starved, half-frozen
animals so often found upon the prem
ises of even "well-to-do" farmers. A
half-dozen well bred pigs, pushed from
the time they are a week old, will make
more pounds of pork, and bring more
per pound at nine months old, than the
same number of rooters, kept half
starved until they are eighteen months
old, and then fattened lor the market.
A grade of thoroughbred steers well fed
from birth up to two years old, will
weigh more at that age than one kept
in a half-starved condition, up to the
same age, can ever be made to weigh,
no matter how long he may be kept.
These are facts which the experience
of every intelligent farmer will sub
stantiate, and it is strange that they are
not more generally recognized.
Xothing is more certain and no fact
in rural economy has been more com
pletely demonstrated by experience,
than that it pays to keep good stock and
to keep it well. The verv best attain
able blood is to be desired, and must be
used if the most profitable results are to
be reached; but, to use a very expres
sive phrase, the best of breeds are won
derfully improved by the use of the big
corn-crib and warm barn cross a cross
that must be constantly resorted to by
all who would make stock raising pro
fitable, and in default of which the best
of breeds will rapidly deteriorate.

A Legend about 1 oflee.
Theie is a legend about coffee a le
gend in which a pious Mussulman is
the hero. The Mussulman used to get
sleepy during his devotions, and so he
prayed to Mohammed, who came to his
aid. Mohammed sent him for advice
to a goatherd, who took a hint from his
goats. He observed that when thete
animals ate the berries of a particular
tree they got frisky and excited
bounded about all the niirht. in fact.
The Mussulman took this hint, ate the
coffee berries, slept less, and no doubt
prayed better. That was the legend.
That coffee, however, was sold in the
streets of Cairo toward the end of the
sixteenth century is not a matter of
legend, but history. In fact, it was
not only sold, but it was forbidden to
be sold. An Arabian historian recounts
that in the year 1533 a cafe was attacked
by the authorities, and the customers
who were fouud on the spot hurried off
to prison, from which they were not
liberated till they had each received
seventeen strokes with a stick, for the
encouragement of others! And, in
fact, this raid served the purpose so ex
cellently that five and twenty years af
terward the town of Cairo could boast
of more than 2,000 shops where cf.flee
might be bought.

whose opposition they first bate and revile.

der rolls axe almost aa hard as iron, but
are used in preference' to iron because,
while they will oreserve their round
ness, truth, fend smoothness, they pos
sess a certain amount ot elasticity, ana
are therefore lees liable to d striata
from the strain due to any foreign sub
stance' MMine through them. Tbe
method of fixing the paper to the rolls
is as follows: Disks of thin common
brown paper, of a diameter large
enoneh to turn no to the reonired dia
meter of roll and with a hole in tbr
center of each larn enough for them
to pass freely over the roller shaft, are
first cut ont; then a number of similar
disks, with the central hole made about
four or six inches larger, are made. 1 n
putting tliese disks noon the roll shaft-
four having the smaller holes are pat
on, and then one with the large hole.
the object being to insure that the
paper shall press together at and to
wards the outer diameter of the roll.
and not bind so tightly towards the
center; thus the outer part ot the roll
is sure to be the most compact, and
tuerelore the most durable.
To avoid bending the roll shaft by
reason of any nnevenness in the thick
ness of one side of the sheet of paper
from winch the disks are cut. every
other disk is turned halfway around
when placed upon the shaft. When the
shaft is tilled with these disks, it is
placed under a verv powerful hydrau
lic press, giving a pressure of about WOO
tons, which compresses the disks solid
together without the aid of glue or
other adhesive substance. The disks
are allowed to stand nntil tbey are
compressed sufficiently to give room
for additional disks, which are added
in the same manner as before, the
whole being again compressed. This
process is continued nntil the intended
length of the roller is filled with com
pound paper, when the latter is
fastened as follows: Upon each end of
the roll shaft a recess is turned, and a
fiange, made in two halves, is bored,
smaller than the recess referred to bv
the amount allowed for shrinkage. The
outer diameter of the flange is then
turned, larger than the recess cut in
the iron disks or flanges forming the
end ot the roll by the amount allowed
for shrinkage; which dange is made
slightly smaller in diameter than the
intended size of the paper roll. The
two half flanges are put in place upon
the recess in the shaft, and the end
flange or disk is shrunk on over the di
ameter of the two half flanges, thus
nrmly locking the whole to the shaft
through the medium of the recesses on
the stiatt. Ibis locking device is
placed on one end of the roll beforethe
paper disks are compressed and while
the roll is in the hydraulic press, the
flanges or disks at the other end are
shrunk on. This plan is the one gen
erally adopted in this country, that
employed in England being considered
deficient in that it gives the paper op
portunity to expand 3 8 iucn in the
locking process. The rolls are then
turned up in the lathe with a front
tool for iron, the speed being but little
greater than that employed to turn iron
of equal diameter. The finishing is
done by an emery wheel, the same as
lor an iron roll.
The IHi ina BelLM. Tosselli states
that he has been making experiments
with his submarine vessel, or "marine
mole, as he calls it. He is struck with
the correspondence of many of the
phenomena to those observed in bal
looning, and considers that it is at the
bottom of tue sea that the problem of
atrial navigation will be solved. In a
liquid mass which is still, the machine
moves quite well in obedience to the
screw propeilor, which is driven by the
hand. Bat if the vessel meets a cur
rent, it is vain to think of contending
with it. Another difficulty, as in bal
loons, is in orientation. Once a balloon
has got to some distance from the
earth, it becomes impossible to tell the
direction in which it is going. The
needle is useless. And. similarly, in
the "marine mole." when it is only
0.3tf of an inch under the surface, and
nothing is seen in motion but the fish,
the compass is found of no nse. To go
to a certain point, an artificial meridi
an has to be arranged outside. M.
Tosselii remarks, too. on the great dis
tinctness with which sounds are heard.
At a depth of 110 feet, the screw of a
steamer, passing about WW yards ofl
sounded in the (liermetrically closed)
mole as if directly overhead. The con
trivance of M. Tosselii, affording as it
does a novel opportunity of observa
tion, may furnish some instructive data
in physics.

Sis Strobi. The following shows
the cause of sun stroke and what Is best
to be done In such a case: :
. It is claimed -that It occurs from, pr
is Indicated by . a cessation of perspira
tion. The moment a man at work In
the hot son ceases to sweat he is Jn
danger of sunstroke, and should at once
quit work and supply the deficient
moisture of the skin with water. This
is Indispensable to the reduction ofthe
accumulated heat of the body. Water
is the resource when the body Is sub
jected to an Inordinate temperature.
After too long a draught upon the
system perspiration falls, and, nothing
ill then avert sunstroke but the timely
use of water to the surface. A man
may work long in a hot sun or labor or
sleep in a heated room with Impunity,
provided he keeps hU skin and clothing
wet with water.
Of course the first thing to do after a
sun stroke is to remove the person to a
cool place and call a physician. Before
he comes, or If he is not attainable, it is
best to commence au application of cold
water a douche from the height of
three or four feet is most recommended
to be applied over the wholy body,

the cow, we do not greatly wonder at
this. But It is not by her good looks
that the cow attracts, so much as by
her usefulness. 1 he cow is principally
employed in the manufacture of milk
which is not so good a drink as lager,
though it tastes belter in tea and coffee,
The cow eats grass. It this peculiarity
she differs from the tiger; but she is
like the sheep, aud also like Xebuchad
nezzar. Sometimes the cow gives swill-
milk, and then Mr. Bergh fines the man
who owns her, and the man goes off
and takes It out of the cow with
broomstick. A favorite pastime of the
cow is jumping over the moon. This
little eccentricity of the cow has been
celebrated in prose and verse. Pari

Athenaus, iu the Diepuosophi-ts, re
fers to the flute made of the leg bone of

Thebans, aud states that the flute ele

the Phoenicians. Flutes among th
classic Greeks were also made of asses'
bones, w hich are said to be remarkably
solid. I hey are supposed to have a
fullness of tone highly suggestive ol
the inflated style of their original pro
prietor. Dr. Bchliemanu, in his exca
vation's at Ilissalirk, discovered a beau
tifully ornamented flute of bone. The
flutes of the Araucanians were made of
the arms and leg bones of prisoners
offered in sacrifice. The Caribs used
human bones, but now use the bones of
the jaguar. Their flute had three holes,

Wallace also noticed a whistle made of
a deer's skull. The Brazilian flageo
lets are of bone ; an average one has
two bones, twelve inches long and
three-eighths inch bore, united by
twine neatly wound and worked. On
the back of the lower part are finger
holes. The whistle is formed by a cone
of resinous cement beneath the mouth
orifice, the ridge of cement rising to the
centre of the tube. The Kafir whistles
are of bone and ivory, and are blown in
the manner of blowing a key, while
holding the instrument against the
lower lip. The flute of the Maories is
made from a human thigh-bone, that of
a slain enemy preferred. Two ancient
Peruvian pipes of bone had five flnger
holes each, and one of human bone had
four finger-holes.

publisher, we are glad to welcome a publication
which, unawerred by aelf-iutereet. attempta to
deal Justly with all parties. Correct iu forma
tion in regard to the character and circuianon
of the numerous publications of this country is
difficult to obtain, bnt with superior advantages
and earnest labor Mr. Pettengul baa produced
a book that will be found of great assistance U,
advertisers and all who need such information
in the oroaecntion of their busineaa. It has
now been nearly thirty years since Mr. Petten
mll ba?an business aa an advertising agent lie
u tlis ninneerof the business. The press of
the country was a small interest compared with
what it now is, and there waa very little sys
tematic advertising being done. It was Mr.
Pettengill'a idea to bring about an understand
ing between the business men of the country
and the publishers: to show the advertiser
that legitimate newspaper advertising waa the
cheapest and bast way of bringmg his wares
before the public ; and the publisher, that in
all proper wava he should regard the interests
of the advertiser. He thus aided both, and
placed both underobluration. How successful
Mr. Pettengul was is best shown by the im
mense business establishment he has built up.
and the high esteem in which he is held both
by advertisers and punusnera tne country over.
Hince be entered into the business a great many
rivals have come into the field. Many have
failed, involving both publishers and advertisers
in their disaster. Others, with youth, energy.
and capital, have succeeded in establishing a
more or leaf prosperous easiness ; out in me
esteem and confidence of both advertiser and
publisher no one has ever rivaled the firm of
which Mr. Pettengill is the head. His name is
a synonym for fair dealing and rectitude, and
rta straightforward business course is the more
marked in contrast with the methods of some
who asuire to outstrip him in business.
The shyster and schemer in advertising, aa
in everything else, must have h.s day. but
eventually the advertiser will find him out, and
bia lists and worthless schemes, which are
three-fourths aranta' profits, will be neglected.
and bis occunation gone. Thete may be less
immediate gain in the old-fa-hioned, straight
forward way of doing business, but, in the long
run. it will pay the largest profits. We trust
that pur voung men beginning in the adver
tising business will observe the great sorress
of Mr. Pettengill. and. imitating bis methods,
lav the foundation on which to build a business
at onoe profitable, permanent, and honorable.

j xnf to check stock gamb-
linz in the least, nor have we any desire
to Interfere with any man's ngns w
his money, but there are, It seems w
us, a few points upon which we may all
agree: . '
The man of family has no right to put
the comfort and support of his little
ones on a margin in the stock market.
Stocks that are half bought belong to
to captalists.
A dollar in the store is worth two In
the stock market.
ETery may own the controlling in
terest in a home; very few can control
mines.
Shares in a homestead always pay di
vidends. ' -
Xo man can win unless another lose.
When one covetous man gets rich, one
hundred get poor. It to always best to
be slow a sure, and let well enough
alone.
