    A GLASS FACTORY.
How the Glass is Melted, Rolled
and Blown.
Liability of the Workmen to
Burns and Blisters.
Entoring a glass factory, the first ob
ject which attracts attention is the
great central furnaces in which the
glass is melted. The most unobservant
person will have noticed that ordinary
glass presents itself in three aspects—
brown,green and stainless white or flint
glass. The former tints aro due to the
presenco of iron- oxide in the sand,
which is one of tho priucipal ingredi
ents. When colorless glass is desired
the iron has to be eliminated, or the
color masked by suitable means, and it
is a noteworthy fact that a proportion
of iron in the sand too small to be in
dicated by the most delicate assay will
impart a distinct hue to glass. Diflar
ent metallic oxides impart different
hues; thus tin or arsenic will render
the product white and opaque; gold
will givo a ruby red; copper, in tho
form of black oxide with a little iron
ore, will yield an emerald green prod"
uct; cobalt-oxido a blue; manganese a
purple; oxide of uranium a yellow, and
so on.
It follows that where colorless glass is
desirod the greatest caro has to be
taken to insure the use of sand in
which the metallic oxides referred to
aro distinguished by their absence.
The furnace takes up quite a large
part of the room in a glass factory, and
is circular in form, to enable the opera
tors to approach the pots from all sides.
As these melting pots are of large size
(seme aro 55 inches in diameter) and
have to withstand continuously a heat
which will easily melt iron or steel, it
follows that they have to be made of
well-kneaded, tempered and annealed
fire-clay. There is a glorious uncer
tainty about the life of a melting pot.
It may givo way and break up in eight
hours or it may last for months. Iu
any case the sides wear through and get
thin, in tho lapse of time, from the ab
sorption of the clay into the vitrified
molten mass within. Just so long as a
good pot can be patched up and forti
fied it is kept in use, but when a pot
has to bo removed, no matter under
what circumstances, it moans a hot,
hard day's work for all hands. The
first thing is to dislodge the broken
fragments of the pot, or the whole affair
bodily if not broken, by battering-ram
blows directed with a gigantic crowbar
into tho interior of a furnace heated
like unto that into which Shadrach,
Meshech and Abednego were cast in tho
days of old. When the work is com
pleted the new pot, already annealed
and heated to whiteness, has to be
placed in position, and as the pot and
contents may weigh many hundred
pounds, the ordeal is necessarily a severe
one. Burns and blisters are every day
occurrences in a glass factory.
It is a busy scene, this interior of a
glass factory in full blast. About a
hundred hands, men and boys in nearly
equal proportions, are employed. First
au operator sticks the end of a long
iron tube into a glowing white hole
and draws tho instrument forth with a
glistening gelatinous looking mass at
the end. He rolls this mass actively
for a few moments on a flat slab called
a ''marver." The marver is placed in
a slightly inclined position on a wooden
slab, and the rolling of the glass on
the surface, easy as it looks, is quito au
art.
While the glass is still in tho soft,
pasty condition, the operator blows it
nlightly and guides the lump into the
interior of a mold closed by a treadle,
blowing it all tho timo. Tho trans
formation is almost instantaneous, and
■when the pressure ou the treadle is re
leased the tube is withdrawn, with a
"full-blown'' bottle at the end of it.
As already remarked, this bottle mould
is an American invention, and the sav
ing in tho case of cheap goods is very
groat. The bottles are annealed—a
process of re-heating and gradual cool
ing—and finished off at tho necks, etc.,
by manipulation at the "glory-holes"
smaller furnaces.
In another part of the factory the
visitor witnessed the making of carboys,
or the huge jars employed to hold acids
and 1 quors in bulk, the final shape in
this instanca also being given by press
ure in a suitable mold. Tho carboy,
before being taken to the annealing
furnace, if detached from the blowing
rod by a dexterous flip on the neck with
a stream of water, which cuts off tho
carboy as cleanly as if a knife or a file
•were used. A similar expertness is ex
hibited by a neighboring workman, who,
before expanding the "gathering" of
molten glass into a carboy, examines it
critically to detect iaws and impuritie 3
undiscerniblo to an ordinary eye. Those
flaws are picked out with a hot iron
tool, just as a coou would extract a
plum or cherry-stone from a mass of
dough.— San FrancUco ChronicU.
Superstitions of the Hindoos.
The Hindoos are early risers. In the
warm season—extending from April to
October—they sleep either upon the
housetop or in the courtyard, or in the
veranda if rain should be threatening,
and are usually up at 6 o'clock or ear
lier in the morning. In the cold
weather, when they slesp within doors,
they rise late, but are out before 7.
Rising in the morning, when but half
awake, the Hindoo repeats tho name of
Rama several times. Happening to
yawn, he immediately fillips his thumb
and middle finger, though ho does not
know why. Ho prepares for his morn
ing toilet. He plucks a twig from tbe
bitter Neem tree, breaks off a span
length of it, crushes one end between
his teeth and extemporizes a tooth
brush. Ho next draws water fr om tho
well in the yard with an iron
bucket, and prepares to wash his hands
and face. This is quickly done. 110
then throws on an extra garment, the
thickness and texture depending on the
season and weather, lights his hooka,
takes a few pulls with his ouphonious
hubblo-bubble, and is ready togo out.
With a passing "Rama, Rama," to
friend or acquaintance, and a neighbor
ly gossip by the way, ho repairs to his
place of business. Whilo going he
will sedulously avoid those signs and
•sounds which may augur ill for tho day.
Should one sneeze, or should he hear
the cawing of a crow or tho cry of a
kite, or should he meet an old man or
one blind or lame, or see a cat cross his
path, he would be greatly distressed as
to the day before him. On tho other
hand, if a fox crosses his path, if he
hears a gong or shell summoning him to
worship, or if he meots a Brahmin with
his head uncovered, ho would rejoice,
hailing it as auspicious. Somo aro so
superstitious that if any evil portent oc
curs on the way they return home, have
a smoke or chew a betel leaf, and pro
ceed afresh.
Otters Tobogganing.
On the north bank of Trout Run, two
miles from Blakesley, Pcun., a steep
knoll rises from tho edge of a deep
pool. The spot is a great resort for
otters in winter, and Samuel Price, who
hss watched them on many a bright
moonlight night when the temperaturo
was several degrees below zero, tells
about how tho furry follows frolic
there. If tho pool happens to be
frozen over the otters gnaw and dig a
hole in the ice at the foot of the knoll.
Then, one after another, they all plungo
into the pool, get their fur full of water
and skip up tho hill. The water drips
off on the way, and freezes as soon as
it strikes the ground or snow, and in a
little while tho playful otters havo a
regular toboggan slide as slippery as
ico on a steep hillside can be. When
the slide is completed each otter takes
it) turn at sliding down the knoll
"kerplunk" into the pool, and they
keep up the sport until daylight, catch
ing a trout now and then and eating it on
the bank. One night last winter Mr.
Prico trapped a full-grown otter at the
slide. He has it yet, but he has not
been able to tamo it very much. —New
York Tribuna.
A Singular Discovery.
A singular discovery has boon mad»
on tho Fiji Islands. A disease had
caused much havoc on a banana planta
tion, part of which was on a flut near
tho seashore. The sea swept into this
section, remaining about an hour. All
tho plants were killed as fnr as the
standing stems were concerned, but vig
orous young shoots came up freely from
the roots, and were not only quito free
from disease, but soon began to bear
much larger bunches of fruit than the
older plants ever did. Tho planters
took the hint and experimented upon a
number of badly diseased plants which
tho sea had not reached. They cut
down the plants, and, having stirred
the ground about them, poured from
one to four buckets of sea water over
each. Tho rosult was that, while the
parent stems withered, vigorous young
shoots came freely away without a sign
of disease.
Cologne Cathedral.
This superb edifico holds the first
rank among German cathedrals, and is
one of the most magnificent buildings
in tho world. It was, according to
the common belief, begun in 12-18, and
progressed slowly till the sixteenth
century, when work upon it was for a
timo abandoned. It fell raoro and
more into decay until Frederick Will
iam IV. began its restoration. It was
consecrated 600 years after its founda
tion. Work upon this edifico has been
vigorously prosecuted within the last
few years, and it is now completed.
Externally, its double range of stu
pendous flying buttresses, and the in
tervening piers bristling with a forest
of purpled pinnacles, strike tho be
holder with awe and astonishment.

Troubles spring from idlenoss, and
grievous toils from needloss ease. Many

Changing the Color of Birds.
The following is from the proceed
ings of tho Berlin Physiological soci
ety: Starting with the observed fact
that canaries fed with cayenne pepper
acquire a ruddy plumage, Dr. Sauer
mann has based upon it a scientitic in
vestigation of canaries, fowls, pigeons
and other birds. From these ho ob
tained tho following results: Feeding
with pepper only produces au effect
when given to young birds bforo they
moult; the color of the older birds can
not be affected. Moisture facilitates
the change of color to a ruddy hue,
which is again discharged under the
influence of suuliglit and cold. A por
tion of the constituents of cayenne
pepper is quite inactive, as, for instanco,
piperin and several extractives; simi
larly, the red coloring matter alone of
the pepper has no effect on tho color of
the feathers. It is rather the triolein,
which occurs in tho popper in tar;;»s
quantities, together with the character
istic pigment, which brings about tho
change of color by holding the red pig
meui of tho pepper in solution.
Glycerine may be u ed inst ad of trio
lein to bring about the same result.
Tho samo statement holds good with
regard to the feeding of birds with ani
line colors. The red pigment of the
pepper is also stored in tho egg yolk as
well as in tho feathers. The first ap
pearance of tho pigment in tho yolk
may bo observed as a colored ring four
days after the beginning of the feeding
with tho pigment dissolved in fat.
After a further two days'feeding tho
wliolo yolk is colored.

THE FASTEST TIME ON RECORD,
In the direction of the neareit drug-store, is not too fait for a person to make
who is troubled with any of the Myriad forms of dUeue resulting; from a torpid
or deranred liver and its attendant impure blood, and is, therefore, iu need of
that world-famed and only guaranteed blood-purifier and liver invigorator known
as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Every form of Scrofulous, Skin and
Scalp Disease, Xczema, Erysipelas, Salt-rheum, Tetter, scaly, crusty, itching,
burning and tormenting forms ef skin disease, are cured by this wonderful
remedy as if by magic. Sold by druggists, under a positive guarantee of benefit
or cure, or money refunded. All ScroAilous afections. as Fever-sores. White
Swellings, Hip-joint Disease, Old Sorei and Ulcers, yield to its wonderful cura
tive properties. It promptly conquers Indigestion and Dyspepsia. It is a con- '
centrated vegetable fluid extract. Dose small and pleasant to taste. Contains
no alcohol, don't inebriate or manufacture topers; is free from syrup or sugar,
and, therefore, don't sour or ferment in the stomach, interfering with digestion ;
as peculiar in its wonderful curative effects as in its composition. There is no
other medicine at all like it, either in composition or elect. Therefore, don't be
fooled into accepting something instead, said to be " just as good." If substitutes
are "just as good," why don't their vendors guarantee them to do what they are
rccommendea to, or refund money paid for them, as we do with all who buy
"Golden Medical Discovery?" For the very good reason that such a plan of
sale would bankrupt the manufacturers of any but an extraordinary remedy like
the " Discovery." To purify the blood, invigorate the liver, promote digestion,
and build up both flesh and strength, it is unequaled, whether for adults or
children. WORLD'S DISPENSARY MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, Proprietors, No. 663
