The atmosphero on the English Channel was recently rarefied to such a doreo that ob ccts between thirty and forty miles from Dover and Folkestone could clearly be distinguished with the naked eye. Tests of various kinds of coal have shown that only coko is a sulliciently good electric conductor to be used as an earth collection for lightning rods. Specimens of anthracite and bituminous coal nnd char, oal were mostly lacking in conductivity. A natural soap well has been discovered near ItutTalo np, Dakota. The snap is skimni'il from a boiling spring and hardens by exposure to the air. It is a mixture of borax, alkali ami oil. Tim Ualit' is excellent, itml the supply is believed to bu inexhaustible. A remarkable strip of the now South American railroad, from llucnos Ayrcs to the Andes, is probably th longest Ur gent In the world, extending 'J il miles without n curve. It is further notablo ns having no bridgii iu the entire dis tance, nnd no cut or fill exceeding about a yard in depth or height. A new method of weather prediction lias been discovered by a French phy sicist. Ho has observe 1 that the scintil lations of stars increaso before many storms, indicating disturbance of the upper a'mosphcro hours b fore the meteorological instruments show any change. The fiercer the storm, the more is tho btrcngth of the scintillations I increased. Eighteen years ago, when the air brake wus, it required eighteen seconds to apply it toa train 2uui) feet long. Four years later tho tinjo was reduced to four seconds. Kecent experiments with tho air-brake on freight trains idiow that it can bo applied to every car in a train of that length running nt the rate of forty miles uu hour, and that this train can be stopped within M)C feet, or one-fourth its own length, and all this without any serious jostling. AY hen tho first electric telegraph wsi established tho speed of transmission was from four to five words a minuto with tho live ncoulo instruments; in 14 V the avcrago rate for newspaper messnges was seventeen words a minuto; the pres ent pace of tho electric telegraph ho tween London uud Dublin, where the Wheutstone instrument is employed, reaches 4it:i words; and thus what was regarded as miraculous sixty years ago lias multiplied a hundred fold in half a century. rrlmltiro "Woman's Island."

Imagine a small sandy beach, with a rocky coast on either side. Man grove ami tocoiktiut trees grow to the water's edne, except where broken by tiny Vlcarings, surrounding the patni leaf hut of some lonely tislu-riiiau. We approached tho neaie-t clearing, and found a sun dried lud an s pint ted under an arbor thati bed witli palm, busily re. paiiingnn old net, while hiswifiund half grown boys were weaving new ones from -isal hemp. It was intensely hot, and millions uf Kind flics ma Iu life in tolerable. The family wo had raided i haritiinly gave us a hammock to rest in, a leaf of palm with w hich to defend ourselves, n fresh-picked cocoauut and a drink of tepid water from the near-by spring. Thus refreshed, we lay at ease and looked about us. Near the shore were immense Hocks of seabirds perched on thu Piles of u turtle inclo'sure, and over head hovered a (loud of snow-white ibises. All nlong tho beach were strewn the rotting carcasses of turtles, covered with swarms of Hies. Turtle catching is quito a business here. Three kinds abound in these waters tho Cahiiumo, whose eggs serve for loud, and which is useful besides only lor its oil; the Tortugu, of which tho meat as well a the cgifs are eaten, which also produces oil, and whose shell is worth twenty-tivo cents per pound, aud the Kare. whose shells sell for $t per lHiund. The airy casu of our host was hung inside with a miscellaneous collection of old nets, sails aud other ad juncts of his profession. I nder tho cave were ranged a row of oil jars and bundle of turtlu shell tied up ready for shipment to the markets of C'ntii peche and l'rogresso. From the rafters depended strings of turtles' eggs and other parts that servo for food aud oil, some of thorn yet warm nnd quivering, the sight, as well n the smell, being by no means conducive to cultivating a taste for the delicacy.

I iineid butter has under gone certain chemical changes and can not be rc-dorcd to its normal state. There is a tiermnn inMliod of preparing "strong" butter so that it can be used in cuokinir, but once rancid, or even in the edge thereof, it Is past table iiie.

In making pickles, use. none but the best vinegar. Iloil in n porcelain kettl never in metal. Dickies should be ex amined cvory month, and soft pieces re moved. If theie is much tendency to soften, it is advisable to strain otf thf vinegar; add to each gallon a cupful ol sugar and boil it, aud return to the pu-klo jar whilo hot. The occasional addition of a little sugar keeps picklci good and improves them. Spices in tiicklcs should be used whole, slightly iruiscd, but preferably not ground; il ground, they should be tied up in thin muslin bags. Most pickles, if well made, improve by age, the sharpness ol tho vinegar passing oil ami the tlavort of tho spices blending pleasantly to gether, (linger is the mo wholesom spice for pickles, clones the strongest, mace, allspice and cinnamon the mor delicate, and of course less of the strong est should be used. Never put pickles in anything thut has held any kind ol grease, and never let them freeze, ltefore putting them in vincgnr after scald in?. tticy should le cold and perfectly dry. A lump of alum tho si.e of a small nutmeg, to a gallon of cucumbers, dissolved and added to the vinegar when scalding the pickles the first time, renders them crip nnd tender, but too much is injurious.
