No matter in what portion of the world he may be, the true son of the Emerald Isle will honor St. Patrick's Day. While it reminds him of the dark cloud which has so long hovered over his native land, it also brings many pleasant recollections, and recollectiAr>c rvf o AT>oiH?Mor oc tr\ rrvoVo V?ic heart leap with emotion as they well up in the storehouse of memory. He goes back in imagination to the days of his childhood innocence when with glowing life and spirits he climbed the mountain sides or bathed in the broad streams and lakes whose rippling waters purl along the grassy banks. Blessed with robust health and too young to understand the unfortunate condition of his country, he roamed the green fields as happy as the larks that flitted over them. He remembers also as he grew to manhood \ the winsome lass, whose cheeks were like the bloom of the rose; whose eyes were like tbe azure skies in June, and "whose voice was sweeter than all other melodies of earth. No after joys can equal those which were his when hand in hand he first walked with her who was destined to share with him the joys and woes of life. When he nsed to say: Och, Kittie, I love ye, an' faith I can't mend it, Yer lips air so rosy yer eyes air so blue; With i smile that's so roguish?the saints ' all defend it!

The steel and iron men of the country and all the rolling mill and furnace me; also, are interested in the newest rival tnatural gas as a saver of fugL It was ; modest little exhibition that was given ii Chester, Pa., the other day, but it prove* pretty conclusively that where natura gas is not, pulverized coal is snre to b ere long. J. G. HcCauley, of California for that is the discoverer's name, .claim to have found a process by which 50 pe: cent, of the coal now used in furnace; and rolling mills Trill be saved, and stee and iron greatly improved in the puddling process. McCauley is one of the latest addition to the array of genius collected by Erastu: "Wiman, the Staten Island millionaire The Catifornian hunted around a gooc while in search of a man of means wh< would appreciate his invention. He coulc have had all the capital he wanted severa years ago, but no "wasn't able to gePcoa pulverized fine enough to spray into ?< furnace, and McCauley's process consist in spraying coal that is pulverized into ai impalpable powder into a cumbustioi chamber attached to the furnace. The combustion that takes place is perfect, and it is instantaneous, and all the gases are absorbed, so that none of the sulphm (Tot.o inf/% t.tiA rrfYn loccono ifc volnA a? is now the case. That's all there is to the new process, hut it does the work, provided the coal is powdered so fine thai you can blow it around as you can the smallest particles of dust. It was at this stage of the- proceedings that McCauley met "Wiman. The mar from the Pacific coast explained his process to the Staten Islander. The lattei said he would test it, because he had a maehmfi "hft pnt from twn Wismmsir farmers that -would grind tie coal out oi sight if necessary. Two young Wisconsin farmers were plowing when they saw a cyclone come along safely out of theii way, and tear a town up. They noticed how the two currents of air, moving in opposite directions, knocked houses, barns and paving stones into smithereens. The thought struck one of them that if that principle could be applied in machinery, it would make the biggest grind in the world. So the young men, whose name was Kaymonci, ana wno were brothers, went to Chicago and invented a machine that they called the cyclone pulverizer. Wixnan met the Raymonds rmd they were his, and so was their machine. The Staten Islander has a fortune in the pulverizer, which has yet to meet a material it can. not reduce to powder, I am told, and the "RAvmnnrts wprfl nairt n. frvrfcnnft hv Wimcn for their discovery. So McCauley and- Wiman formed a combination. Wiman's machine pulverized the coal and McCauley tested his process at the big Chester worts. It was a success beyond doubt, and had it been put into operation before natural gas was discovered, it would have had a clear monopoly of the field. It isn't a free pufE to say that pulverized coal sprayed into a furnace unquestionably saves the manufacturer hundreds of dollars a day. The big furnace men at Chester and out in a* \jui\j aaj 2>v, auu ou uu an uuc ^Uilb lu tie manufacturing realm who were present at the Chester exhibition. Outside of the natural gas localities pulverized coal is going to be the fuelof the future. McCauley and Wiman are even bold enough to say that they will confront natural gas right in Pittsburg with sprayed coal. The conflict ought to be an interesting one.

' ., "* ] One Kind of Reading. g I Arid how few persons who can devote J but an hour or half an hour a day tc J reading and study, take due thought as a I to how they can make the most of theii oj little leisure. They read in a desultory a ! wav whatever comes to hand, and thini a that if they had more time for book; :1 they would" soon become much better " informed. But the half hour a day, iJ e used in the wisest manner, would make ' a vast difference in one's mental growth ? as the years glide by. s An incident occurs to me that well ii2 lustrates this. A pretty maiden-haii j fern, growing in a flower-pot, was given to a young girl, hopelessly 511 with 3 spinal disease. It proved thing oJ s Kaonfrr nf inPThnnct.ihlfl interest . as the delicate, gracefnl fronds came up, one bj one, and slowly uncurled. There was a little pot beside the fern and under its spreading fronds, in which grew an aloe. By-and-by the sick girl noticed in the little pot some tiny ferns, scarce an inch high, quite unlike the maiden-hair. Whence came they? Hei j interest was aroused. She was no ; botanist, but she wanted to learn some ( thiDg about ferns. She could use hei > eves for reading but five minutes at - a : time, and not more than twice a day. 5 A book on ferns came to her, and an> other, and another. Friends, knowing - her interest in ferns, brought them to 1 her fresh and green from the woods, o? ) sent her pressed specimens of rare varieties gathered in distant lands. 5 Sometimes a visitor would read to her [ from one of her precious books, but . only for four or five minutes. "1 cant not remember more at a time," she L. would say, "and you have, read enough : for me to think about for a long time." i It is now some years since the maidi en-hair fern was given to her, and she has become an authority as to the species and culture of ferns, and is an enthusiast in regard to them. It is true that she has become educated in one direction only, and is not particularly well-informed in other respects. But ia it not a great gain that she should talk about her ferns and 'their wonderful method of reproduction, awakening her listeners' imprest and teaching them many things worth remembering, rather than to dwell chiefly on her pains and . privations? It is many years'since she was able to step out of doors, but when von are with her vou do not think of 1 her as an invalid, so interested and in teresting is she. The growth of eryptogamous plants ' would not be a matter of absorbing in terest to all persons, but the habit of reading thoughtfully and carefully what we read, and of retaining it in i' memory, is a great factor of mental growth.?Boston Transcript.

LITTLE GIRLS TAKING DANCING LESSONS FOR THE STAGE. A Peep J>to tlie Big Bare Boom 'Where the Classes Meet for Practice?Professor and Pupils?Art of Smiling?Mo ments of Rest. i By some accident or another, we will . suppose, M. and Mme. Pipelet have decided . that their little Adete shall become a dancer, and so the little dear is brought to Mme. Theodore, the professor of the i opera, who examines her and passes her on to the doctor, who in turn examines and pronounces her to be fit or unfit for the profession. The verdict being favorI ftVlA 1-S + tl.rv J-~ ctuic, jLxuue AUUC ucauciuiwaiu uciuii^s i*J the opera; she is now aged 7 or 8 years, and if she works Itard she will become a passable dansertse in about ten or twelve years. The first stage is the little girls' class, la classe des . petites. Winter and s&mmer, day after , day, every morning at 10 o'clock, Mme. , Theodore awaits her pupils, who come , accompanied by their mothers, each one I rArrrinc a little hs/r that, fwntnvna t> tboti. " lar Noah's ark fall of miscellaneous objects necessary for the studies or the ' happiness of a pnpil of the petite classe, ' such as stockings, dancing shoeg* a box of 1 potfdre de rlz, a comb, abntton hook, some bread, a bottle of wine and water, some cold veal, hard boiled ezes. sardines. apples and what not. ! In the twinkling of an eye the little : ones nndress, put on their workira costume, and come rushing up staire pell mell into the class room, bouadingvjound the professor and kissing her. A BIG BABE ROOM. L<ec ns icos at tne room, it is a large, , bare room, with bars fixed parallel to the | walls on three sides and a sloping floor, to accustom the pupil to the sloping stage of the theatre. Along the free wall are benches, and two cane seated chairs ae1 commodate the professor and her assist ant, who plays a fiddle or sometimes a sort of harmonium. The girls, of whom the oldest is perhaps 13, wear low necked corsages leaving their arms bare, white muslin skirts, broad sashes of bine or red ribbon, pink tights and gray canvas shoes. They-are a lean, scraggy Jot, not lovely to look npou individually, but full of good humor and vivacity. ? ' AIIat^o o tr/vs T\1oAoe!>I cries the professor, and the girls ran to the bars, and the fiddle gives the word of command, j =.t as the bugle calls direct the soldier. There is no melody, but simply a series of andante, allegro, pizzicato and trill movements, each followed by a tremolo, so that to the untutored ear the sounds suggest the confusion of the timing of an orchestra. Brit the dancers understand that sach and such notes indicate such and such a posture at the bar, Vsv V/OyJ ?r, 4-"U ~ wiuuu uiuou w nciu oo iuu^ uo tut; jjiufessor keeps up the tremolo; other notes followed by a tremolo indicate another posture. And at every moment during the lesson the professor intersperses her remarks with the words: "Souriez! Souriez! Mais sotrriez done!" (Smile! "Won't you smile?)' For in the midst of the most difficult and torturing dislocations the ballet girl must smile, and the art of smiling has to be learned just like a step or a developpe. After half an hour of these general exercises at the bar there comes a rest, and the little girls begin once more to chatter and flatter, while the professor lays the dust by watering the floor in geometrical interlacements. Then follows the adage, or second part of the lesson, which consists of an ensemble and composed steps. The dancers take place in the middle of the room in rows; Mme. Theodore holds tip ner ssircs ana inaicaces tne step, ana the little ones begin to bound, whirl, pirouette, form groups by twos, and smile in unison, while the fiddle scrapes queer tunes and the professor cries in strange terms: "Ballonne, fondu, assemblez, soutenez, souriez. Mais souriez done!" Always that smile! AL At intervals there are moments of rescn but the zealous pupils do pot rest; they run to the bar and work their knees and i GENERAL SEWS XOTEH.

Women who have done housework a long fame are in some instances troubled by enlargement of the joints of the fingers and bands. This trouble is brought on by the exposure of the hands to the extremes of temperature, and especially by putting them in hot and cold water, and letting cord air come in contact with them after Laving had them in water. This may be avoided in several ways which I will mention. A handled dish-mop can be used for all but the very worst dishes, and the hands hardly be wet. Another ofj these mops can he profitable utilized in cleaning lamp c'nim- aeys. With a self-wringing mop a floor can be washed without wetting the hands; a model housekeeper of my acquaintance uses one, and says that with but half the labor it Is as effective as a common mop. A pair of mittens should be kept expressly for wear when hanging out clothes; they are best knit.'but two thicknesses of old flannel make quite serviceable ones. Another pair ox milieus saoiuu uw jtcpo xuj. guiruuui wear, for making beds in cold rooms, or any work which chills the hands and can be done in mittens. Wearing an old pair of thick gloves, or better yjt, loose mittens made from an old rubber blanket, when blacking stoves, does away with the necessity of washing the hands after the operation. A little whisk broom is useful in cleaning windows; the glass can be washed and rinsed with it, and for the corners it is especially nice. *? ?- :~ mtt vua fa JXL ruusiug uubucs a SUOA U>U v\S UVU w press the suds from the articles in the tub and lift them to the surface, where only the tips of the fingers need he used in* feeding them to the wringer. Apples or vegetables to be pared in winter should be brought from, .the cellar in season to allow of their surfaces being warmed before being handled. Clothes taken from the line in cold weather should either be handled in mittens or allowed to stand awhile in a warm room before being folded or sprinkled; for the latter operation warm water should be used. A tin box with, a perforated cover, such as pepper and spice are sold in, makes a good sprinkler. It may be thought tao mnch trouble to do work in this way, and doubtless it will take more time at first; but it will be found after a fair trial to be in reality superior to the old method.
