(Jo n' Home To-day.
My business on the jury's done?tho quibblin, j
all is through?
I've watohe l the lawyers right anil left, anil I
* ? given my vrnliot true;
I stuck so Ions; unto my chair, I thought I [
would grow in;
And if 1 do not know myself, they'll get me J
there ag'in ;
But now the court's adjourned for good, and ,
I have got my pay,
I'm loose at last, ami, thank the Lord, I'm I
going home to-day.
I've somehow felt uneasy li':e, since the first j
day I came down :
It is a:i awkward game to j.lay the gentleman j
in town;
And this 'ere Sunday suit of Giiuo on Sunday I
rightly sets ;
But when I wear the slutT a week, it someiiow
galls and frets..
IM rather wear my homespun rig of pepper,
salt, and gray?
I'll have it oft in half a jiff when 1 got home
to-day.
Tho mornin' that I fame away wo had a little
bout;
I coolly took my h.U nnd left before tho showwas
out.
For what I said was naught whereat she ought
to take offense,
And she was always ijuiek at words and ready
4o commence ;
But then she's first one to give up when she
has had her say;
And she will moot me with a kiss when I go
home to-day.
I have no doubt my wife looked out, as well
as any one?
As well as any woman could?to see that things
was done;
For though Melinda, when I'm there, won't
set her foot outdoors,
She's very careful, when I'm gone, to tend to
all tho chores;
But nothing prospers liulf so well when I go
o.T to stay,
And 1 will put things Into snapc when I get
home t-- day.
My little buy?I'll give 'cm leave to match
li- him, if they can;
It's fun to see him strut about, and try to be
a man ;
The gumcst, cheeriest little chap you'll ever i
want to see '
And then they laugh, because I think the child
rest. Ill LI; s lllr.
The little rogue ' lie goes for mo like robbers
for their prey;
He'll turn ivy pockets inside out when get
honu '-day.
My little girl--I can't contrive how it should j
happen thus?
That God should piel: that sweet bouquet and j
tling it down to us !
My wife, j-.lic says that han'sorae face will
some clay make a stir ;
And then I laugh, because she thinks the
child resembles her.
She'll meet me half way down the iiiil, and j
kiss me any way ;
And light my heart up with her smiles when
I go iioHie to-day.
If there's a heaven upon the earth, a fellow I
knows it when
He's been away from home a week, and then I
gets home again;
If there's a heaven above the earth, there
often, I'll be bound,
Some homesick fellow meets his folks, and j
hugs 'em ail around.
But lot my creed be right or wrong, or oe 11 as ;
it may,
My heaven is just aliend of me?I'm going |
home to-day.

DOLLY'S PARACHUTE.
I
i
"P-a-r par?a-c-li-u-i-o. Uncle Harry,
what's that ? a pftraeliute V"
"A big word for a little girl's tongne,
Dollie. Come, let me see if it l'as
twisted it crooked V"
My six-year-old niece gravely put
forth the desired organ, and I as gravely
- pronounced it sound and straight.
"But 1 want to know, Uncle Harry,"
she persisted.
So I took the young lady on my lap,
and explained, us well as I could, the
mysteries of tho parachute; and the
beau'itnl brown eyes grew bright with
wonder at the new ideas tuns preseniea j
to her inquiring mind.
My story finished, Miss Dollie sat
awhile on ray knee in deep thought;
and then she pot down, and trotted off
with a preoccupied, business-like air.
~ "* I loved a good cigar iu those days?I
do now for the master of that?and sitting
smoking on the portico, with tho ;
sweet summer breezes dancing around
me, ami the woodland songsters filling
the air with music, I forgot Dollie?
though I had promised to keep an eye
on her?until suddenly startled by a
series of screams aud outcries proceed
ing from the garden, a sure indication
that the mi?chievt>n< little monkey had
got into some sort of tvouble, as usually
happened on an average twice a day,
at least.
I threw away my beloved cigar, and
rushed out to the scene of the turmoil,
my sister closely following ; but neither
of us, I must confess, were prepared for
the sight that met our view.
. There was a tall grape-arbor in the |
garden, composed of several upright j
po^,ts conn* cted by long slats, nailed *
longitudinally, a:.d projecting a foot or
more beyond the uprightsat either end. j
There were fifteen of these slats, a foot
apart, and on the end of one of the up- '

knees
SfflKSraP^Tl, Dollie!" I cried out, my !
RKo full of laughter.
And then I clambered rapidly up the [
arbor, and plucked the terrified child ;
from her elevated, impromptu swing, j
'- landing her safnly on the ground.
"Dollie," said her mother, severely, j
' haven't I forbidden?"
"It's all Uncle Harry's fault, so it is!" I
sobbed Dollie, in doleful accents. "He j
said a person could jump off a high ,
place, and come down easy, if they had j
a pamohute, bo I thought I'd try, and I j
got his?"
"Mme!" I cried out; "I have none,you
li'th* goose I"
"You has, Uncle Harry; you take it j
out to keep the sun off when you go to j
draw pictures and to paint."
"Oh," said I, "I see; you mean my
artist's umbrella, little lady 1 That is j
not a parachute at all."
"It's not an umbrella!" cried Dollie, '
indipuantly. "It's big, and strong, and }
heavy, and you pnt it in a pipe, and j
stick it in the ground. I got it, and
first I got on the fence and jumped :
down, arid I bumped so hard it most j
took the breilout of me. Then I mem- j
bered U;:cle Harry said the air must 1
get under it ; and so I climbed up the '
?-- arbor and jumped off, and?and I didn't !
go at all. Just look at my hoopskiit, \
mamma?it sail Undo Harry's fault?j
jnst look!"
Mamma did look, so did the muchabused
ULcle, and both fell into fresh
convulsions of luughter.
It was the fashion in those days for
the little feminities, as veil as the big
ones, to wear stiff, ratt n hoopskirts.
Dollie had been very pro .d of hers?the
first of its kiud to her?and now, alas,
having served as a hook to suspend its
owner in mid-air, it pres^n'ed a woebegoue
appearance?rattans twisted and
broken, and trailing behind in a decided
peak.
Altogether, it was too much for my
gravity, and I lay down on th-i grass to
laugh at my ease, while my f-ister carried
off tho much-offended Dollio to
restore order to her dilapidated clothing.
It was some time before I recovered
sufficiently to go to the rescue of my
impromptu parachute, which, meanwhile,
was reposing quietly in a blackberry
busb.
The next day was like many of its
predecessors?warm and beautiful?almost
too beautiful, in fact, for we were
getting tired <>f 'he hot sun and cloudless
sky, and felt thnt we could heartily
join in the cry of the druoping jdants
for clouds and rain.
We had had three weeks of oppressively
hot, dry weather, but to day was
considerably cooler; there was a brisk
breez#1, and a few floating, fleecy clouds
gave some hope that a change of weather
was at last approaching.
"Lon," j-aid I, to mv sifter, as we
stood on the porch together afterbreakfast,really
look* as if it might rain
some time, aud.pt rhaps I had better
not postpone my sketch any longer. I'll
go now ; and while I caddie Fleet, and
get my portfolio and Dollie's parachute
ready, do you put me up some lunch,
like the dear, good sister vou are. I
ohoil act be bauk before niglit."
Lfr- ^ . dT > ' -V
Ami thus it happpneil that an hoi
later found me riding over the brot
prairie that lay on one side of thebea
tit a I lake near wincn my sister nweit.
There was a little town there, the b
ginning of one of those Western trim
formation scenes where the wihlerne
becomes a city as by the stroke of
wand.
The lake, as I have said, was a bea
tiful thing to look upon; its shor
were bold and abrupt, in some plne<
rocky, and more like r. precipice tlu
the banks of a peaceful sheet of wate:
on the side opposite the town, fro
which point I desired to make n
sketch, a rank, dense growth of virg
forest extended to the very verge of tl
lake, forming a sharp contrast to tl
scantily-wooded prairie that stretclu
fur away behind it, and in fact, c
every side, leaving the lake and tl
narrow belt of forest encircling it lil
an oasis in the desert.
It was a long ride around to iiie poii
I had iti view, but finally I arrived tlier
and with a gentle sigh of satisfaction,
tied Fleet to a tree, and settled myse
to the pleasant task of transferring '
paper, as best I might, some faint lik
ness of the beautiful scenery.
I was an artist, not only by natm
lint liv nvnf?\<isinn. find T hild come fro
my fur-away home not only to visit n
sister ami hor husband, but to can
back with me materials for an ambit iot
landscape painting that was to appei
on the walls of tlio Academy of Fir
Arts.
In a fit of laziness, induced by tl
oppressive heat, I had put off my wot
until now, and found myself nearingtl
end of my \isit without having take
one stej) toward the chief object of n
journey.
Now, therefore, finding myself at la:
on the spot I had selected for my gran
sketch, 1 fell to work iu all eagernes
absorbed utterly, as was my wont, f
that 1 soon became oblivious of ever
thing, save my task.
I forgot poor, patient Fleet, waitin
for his dinner; I forgot my own lunch
1 forgot that the hours were ereepin
on?until at last I returned to eart
sufficiently to rail at the heavy to:
which had latterly been settling dow
mw ilin 1-ilco nhxnnrinfr mv view.
Next, 1 became alive to the fact tbi
Fleet, my favorite horse and my pe
was snorting loudly and pawing th
ground in a v?*av that plainly ind
cated something amiss with him.
"Well, it is time to start for home,
thought I, as I roso and stretched m
cramped limbs. "The fog is shut tin
out the view. Whew! some one :
burning brushwood hereabouts; m
nose snifts it, my eyes weep at it."
I turned my face away from the lak<
and, good heavens! fog, brush woodneither
of these harmless things was :
that had gradually darkened the atmo;
phere, and was causing my eyes an
nose to sting snd smart. No wonde
that pooi Fleet snorted and pawed th
ground, wild with impatience and fear.
The forest was on lire?on fire in th
most alarming sense of the word !
It was not a slow, languishing fin
creeping along the ground at a model
ate rate, but a fierce roaring army c
fiery demons, leaping and dancing, an
rushing onward with almost lightnin
speed.
I shall never forget the feeling c
horror and despair that overwhelm e
me, as the imminent danger of m
position was thus suddenly revealed t
me. I actually believe the hairs on m;
head rose up and stood on end; certainl
they felt as if they did, in the firs
shock of surprise.
But that was over in a moment, an<
collecting my scattered senses I took ii
the whole situation at one rapid glance
In front of me a bold, precipitou
bank, totally impassable on account o
dense undergrowth, even if it had no
been so steep; the glistening waters oi
the lake far below; to the right, to th
left, behind me, one unbroken semi-cir
cle of tlame?fierce, crackling, roariui
?leaping over the dry, parched under
brush, with a speed that even my ileet
footed Arabian could not hope to equal
And if he could, what would it matter
since the fierce flames imprisoned m
on three sides, and a precipice on th
fourth ?
With a sinking heart I strained m;
eyes to discover some loophole of escape
some break in the advancing wall of lire
and an ejaculation of thanksgiving burs
from my parched lips, as, far away oi
the left, I saw a little, dark spot in th
line of flame, and remembered that jus
there a beautiful spring bubbled up ii
the middle of the forest, making a poo
small and shallow, yet all-sullicient ti
preserve my life, could I reach it befor
the army of fiery demons should flanl
it, and stretch an impassable barrie
between me and this, my one hope o
safety.
In one second I was on my horse'
back, anil fleeing at a break-neck pact
toward that blessed spot of refuge?ai
oasis, verily, in that desert of lire. I
was fully half a mile distant, and thong]
my fleet-footed animal, seemingly iuj
bued with a full knowledge of all tha
depended on his speed, flew over th
ground as even he had never done bt
fore, I soon saw that tlie race was a de*
perute one, wull-mgh hopeless."
The hungry outcry and roar of th
flames, as they leaped and danced am
waltzed among the dry brush and tree
?vet ever da-lied forward on their im
sistable course?maddened my poo
horse with i'ear, and drowned my voic
as I strove to soothe him.
On and on he rushed, his eyes aliuos
starting from their sockets, the foai
flying from iiis mouth, and flecking h;
sides with great white patches ; seldoi
horse spurned the earth as did my poo;
frightened Fleet, during that awful rac
with the demons of lire!
But it was all in vain !
Before we could reach that one litt]
rift in the great, red wall, it was close
up ; and then the unbroken tide of lii
seemed to dash onward with even grea
er speed then before.
There was only one thing left for m
to do?to gain a few moments' respit*
in which to make my (jeace, as best
might, with my God ; and I thanke
Him then that His hand had alwa}
been my guide and support, so that
had not that overpowering horror (
death that otherwise must have oj
pressed mo.
There was one little spot as yet ui
touched by the llaiues, though the
were momentarily closing in upon if
and thither I fled, riding to its utte
li'nnrc T flicmmmtrwl.
uiunt IIUU'.J V. 1. v J. V?4.v,^v^
Then I looked about me once more, i
a last dying eflbrt of hope, it was f
hard to resign myself to meet so liorr
ble a death. 13?*hind me, to the righ
to the left, that terrible wall of fire, i
front, the lake, calm, beautiful, clear s
a mirror, glistening in the sunlight, t\\
hundred feet below me ; and then loo)
iug down, close at my feet, I saw that
stood on a projecting point of the clil
overlooking a tangled mass of unde
brush at least one hundred feet belo
me.
The tire would be checked on i
rocky shelf- -Imiw that at aglsmce ; bu
alas ) there was plenty of fuel to feed
up to the very utmost edge, and its nu
career would be stopped too late tosa^
m<* ; for there was no spot of refuge '
which I could ih.-e until its fury shou
have passed.
Already I felt its scorching brea!
on ray cheeks as I stood waiting, wil
my hand resting on my poor, tremblir
horse; and suddenly, as he whinnit
piteously, the thought came to me th
lie, at least, need not suffer so painful
death as stared his master in the lace.
I always carried a pistol, and now
j drew it out, and nerving my shakir
j hand, raised it to his beautiful quive
] ing ear, but I lowered it again as fi
the first time, I noticed that my clum:
i artists's umbrella still swung from i
| accustomed place from a ring in the sa
I die. It had so happened that the sp
: in which I had been sketching, win
j hi mmed in by my liery foe, was so co
and shady that the umbrella was n
needed; so I did not remove it from t]
saddle.
When I drew the trigger, Fleet won
fall, it might be, upon it; he might n
live a moment or two, yet even for th
short time I did not choose that t;
strong, heavy, steel ribs should have tl
chance of adding to his pain.
I detached it from the saddle; ai
| even as 1 did so the sudden memory
little Dollie's experiment that momii
j ?ah, how far away it seemed!?forc<
a smile to my dry lips; and then follow^
a thought, swift and startling as
' lightning flash.
A parachute, Dollie called it; a:
; why not use it as such now in my di
! extremity? It was very strong ai
j stout. I had some twine in r
! poeket, with which to secure the ends'
j the ribs to the handle, so that it co j
?ot turn wrong side out.
With the resistance it would offer
my descent, I felt sure that it was qu:
possible to load in the middle of t
ir sostruq mjq} ;jnq snouos qjoot oa qiim

a- and scratches, or perhaps a broken TI
limb ; ami surely these were liglit evils for
e- in comparison with being burned to atari
s- death. very
ss With eager fingers I knotted the twine der
a | to the steel ribs, and secured the former
I to the base of the handle. Ai
n_ | The flames 'were almost upon mo by grcn
this time; so, with 0110 long-drawn the
es breath, I raised my pistol once more, crop
tn and, with one quick, nervous jerk, sent year
r; a bullet into the brain of mv petted pen<
m' steed. * peo]
1V Then, as he gave one wild shriek, and of 1
iu fell lifeless at my feet, I seized the um- field
le brelhi?Dollie's parachute?and leaped wit!:
ie ciT the rock. app<
At the outset I fell so rapidly that I pani
)n almost lost my breath, but in a second As i
ie I could feel that my descent was checked, bryc

Doubtless there was not more than field

U How Marbles are Made. sa^6'
Marbles are named from the Latin
t i word " marmor," by which similar play- '
o things were known to the bovs of Koine i ^Qn
? two thousand years ago. Some mar- j
bles are made of potter's clay and [ mi
? baked in an oven just as earthenware is {
v baked, but most of them are made of:
a hard kind of stone found in Suxony, ; |mrv
iy Germany. Marbles are manufactured ; CQng
v there iu great number and sen* to all j
parts of the world, even to China, for j (i^ {
j the use of the Chinese children. The |
Z stone is broken up with a hammer into j
it 4ittle square pieces, which are then j
5. ground round in a mill. The mill has j ^
,] | a fixed slab of stone, with its surface i anj*
!r I full of little grooves or furrows. Above j creas
? I this a flat block of oak wook, of the i fl-r .
samo size as the .--tone, is made to turn *' TQ
round rapidly, and wliilo turning little j 1
streams of water run in the grooves and ce
j( keep the mill from getting too hot. j cro^'
Z About one hundred of the square pieces I
,f of stone are put into the grooves at J /
j once and in a few minutes are made j ((
,r round and polished by tlio wooden i ProsJ
b bio k. jin?r
, China and white marble also are used :
to make the round rollers which have j 1
1 delighted the hearts of the boys of all j q
v nations for hundreds of years. Marbles j ^
? thus made are known to tho boys as ; 61 j01
- "Chinas" or "alleys." Heal China ones ' sa?j?
\ are made of poceiain clay and baked j | ,?
L like China ware or other pottery. Some i
, of them have a pearly glaze and some j ... C
are painted in various colors, which will ; bl 'f?

? A Mexican Wake. Ian(^
3 A recent issue of tbo San Antonio .ese

j in this city last evening at the residence mul
of Fraucisco Ramos, a Mexican, on ?anc'
t Losoyo street, adjoining the San An- .fara
e tonio ice factory. A child eight months JPS'
of age died yesterday morning, and tbe w 0
parents did not weep but rejoiced over Prec?
tbe loss. They loved their little one, 8evei
e yet rejoiced because it was taken away ?
in its purity of infancy to join the ; u"ae
s angel hosts uj) yonder. They were | ^ ,?
glad that they bad been thus made in ! e ^

A Taste of Maine Kirch. j
The traveler and camper-out in Maine, i ^
unless he penetrates its more northern |
portion, has less reason to remember it l
as a pine-tree State than a birch-treo;
State. The white-pine forests have j j
melted away like snow in the spring and j
gone down stream, leaving only patches
here and there in the more remote and ;
inaccessible parts. The portion of the
State I saw, the Valley of the Kenebec
and the woods about Moxie lake, had ,
been shorn of its piue timber more than
forty year3 before, and is now covered !
with a thick growth of spruce and cedar,
and various deciduous trees. Bui the
birch abounds. Indeed, when the pine !
goes out the birch comes in; the race of j (
men succeeds the race of giants. This ; i
trco has great stay-at-home virtues. Let f
the somber, aspiring, mysterious pine
go; the birch has humble cverv-day uses.
In Maine the paper or canoe birch is
turned to more account than any other j |
tree. Uncle Nathan, our guide, said it j i
was made especially for the camper out; i !
yes, and for the woodmen and frontiers- i J
men generally. It is a magazine, a fur- ' \
nishing store setup in the wilderness, ' i
whose goods are free to every comer, js
The whole equipments of the camp lies ; 1
folded in it, and comes forth at the beck ;
of the woodman's ax ; tent, waterproof j <
roof, boat, camp utensil?, baskets, cups, (
plates, spoons, napkins, table cloths, j
paper for letters or your journal, torches, >
Candles, kindling wood and fuel. The
cauoe-birch yields yon its vestments j
with the utmost liberality. Ask for its I
coat and it gives you its waistcoat also, i
Its bark seems wrapped about it layer j
upon layer, and comes uff with great |
ease. We saw many rude structures |
and cabins shingled and sided with it, j
and haystacks capped with it. Near
a maple sugar camp there was i
a large pile of birch bark sap- ,
buckets ? each bucket made of a
piece of bark about a yard square,
folded up as tho tinman foids up a sheet j
of tin to make a square vessel, the cor- j
ner bent around against tho sides and
held by ?i wooden pin. When, one day, ]
we were overtaken by a shower in traveling
through the woods, our guide
quickly stripped large sheets of the
bark from a near tree, and wo had each
a perfect umbrella as by magic. When
the rain was over, and wo moved on, I
wrapped mine about mo like a large 1
leather apron, and it shielded my clothes
from the wet bushes. When we carno to
a spring Uncle Nathan would have a ,
birch-bark cup ready before any of us

and I think water never tastes so sweet I
as from one of these bark cups. It is ex- '
j actly the thing. It just fits the mouth.and |
it seems to give new virtues to the water. !
j It makes mo thirsty now when I think
! of it. In our camp at Moxie we made a !

! and tho butter in this box, covered with i
some leafy boughs, I think improved in j
; flavor day by day. Maine butter needs j
| something to mollify and sweeten it a <
j little, and I think birch-bark will do it. j
; In camp Uncle Nathan often drank lii&i
tea and coffee from a bark cup; tho '
china closet in the birch tree was al- I
ways handy, and our vulgar tinware was
generally a good deal mixed, and the j
j kitchen-maid not at all particular about
j dishwashing. Wo all tried tho oatmeal
i with the ruaple syrup in one of these i
i dishes, and tho stewed mountain cran- j
j berries, using a birch-bark spoon, and
never found sorvice better. Uncle
Nathan declared he could hoil potatoes
in a bark kettle, and I did not doubt
! him. Instead of sending our soiled
i napkins and table spreads to tho wash,

/' ' ' ;/ v Restlng-Place
of TVilkes Booth.
The Washington correspondent of the
Buffalo Commercial writes: It was only
ifter some patient inquiry that I could
iscertain the facts, which are inter, sting
and, as far as I know, are yet un--'
published. Booth, the murderer of
Abraham Lincoln, died, as will be ronembere
<, in a barn in Maryland, from
i wound received from the musket of
Boston Corbett. The body was brought
to Washington, and, after having been
identified by the court-martial before
ivhich his fi Jlow conspirators were tried,
ivas dissected by the surgeon-general
)f the army. The brain and heart and
iome other parts of the body were prejerved
in alcohol and are now on exhibition
in the medical museum of the
mrgeon-general's office. The building
in which the assassination occurred was
Ford's theater. The government con- |
[iscated it, but afterward Fonl was paid
its full value, and it has since been used
is the headquarters of the medical corps
Df the army. The brain and heart of
Booth are in jars, standing in a case
that is situated very near the actual
scene of the assassination. After the
surgeon had done with Booth's body it
svas buried in a grave in the arsenal
grounds. Only half a dozen persons
knew the exact spot, which was unmarked.
In 1807 Edwin Booth, the
ictor, sent ]\Ir. Weaver, the sexton of
Christ church, Baltimore, to Washington,
with the request that the remains
of his brother might be taken up and
removed to the family burial place.
Aiter some .1 !.\y, the request was granted
by President Johnson, who was
finally appealed to, and Mr. Weaver
took the body to the cemetery in Baltimore,
and buried it beside the elder
Booth and others of the family. The
removal was conducted with great secrecy
and was concealed from Secretary
Stanton, who had refused to give his
consent.
?
Hair,
Not less than ninety per cent, of the
women and five per cent, of the men in
this country wear more or less false
hair. This enormous consumption of
the artificial and natural product suggests
the fact, fearful but true, that nine
women out of. every ten about the
street, iu the church, or on ine cars,
charming or ugly to a line, have on a
wig or a weft, a bandeau or a prepared
net, bangs or waves, arranged at the
hairdresser's.
Some people think that blondes never
grow gray-headed. The fact is, onethir
d of white shreds may be mingled
with such hair, and few will notice it.
The same proportion of blonde-headed
people turn gray as those with any
other colored hair.
The proportion of people who dye
their hair is also surprising. Some
twenty per cent, are said to do this. Of
course, the greater proportion of this
class are often, though not always, a
sign of a life of trouble.
The dresser is more than often
amused by requests from the country
for "cold water frizzes." These, of
cours e, comprise an article which will
curl easily by application of water and
are easily supplied. Curly hair has
been t he fashion for a year or more.
Of the two, human hair is the most
called for. "Hair-raising" is a sort cf
industry in Europe. The peasa.it girls,
who are much in the open air, get their
heads cropped once a year, and thus
furnish a portion of the supply. They
are satis fied with a stipend so small
that an American women would scorn
to touch six times its value. Of the
material imported France supplies Half
the trade and England and Germany
livide the rest. The raw material finds
its way hero in great quantities, and is
made up on this side of the water. The
business is young yet in this country.?

I wish to add my testimony as to the
merits of St. Jacobs Oil as a cure for |
rheumatism. One bottle has cured me ;
of this troublesome disease, which gave !
me a great deal of bother for a long 1

cured. TLis statement is unsolicited j

It appears, says Dr. C. 0. Cech, that j
some wholesale dealers in the north of i
Russia have each season to dispose of
more than half a million of bad eggs
laid by hens. These eggs he divides
into seven classes, according to the
stage of decomposition. From some of
;hem he proposes to extract the so-called
3gg oil, which may be used in the
manufacture of soaps, and he also sug- I
jests that eggs unfit for human food !
may be found of advantage in making I
irtilicial manures.
