JiuttorwortU, In Youth' b Companion. A FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION. THEIR FIRST PACKAGE OF SHOOTINC CRACKERS. match to set pieoes, steel arid iron filings for produoing tho bright starry coruHcationH, chemicals to givo to the stars their wondrous hues of red, green, whito and bine, and othor harmless materials. Searcely less intarosting was it to watoh the nimble fingers as they filled the lloman candles. Into ono of theso strdng oases were put the layers, infthe following order: Composition, a pipcli of gunpowder, a star; and so on until tho case Was quite filled, the composi tion and gunpowder furnishing ro spccti76ly the nocessary combustion and propeller fox' the variously col ored stafS. The Roman candle not only shino* by herself, "a thing of sweetness and of light,'* but fills an important part in pieces like The Devil Among Tailors, Chinese trees, etc. Altogether a dainty modepi crai tore, quite unlike her more noisy, frisky kindred. Letters, figure/, in fact, all designs for set pieces are made by means of hundreds, yes, thousands of lances connected by a quick mstdh, andlhe making of these requires many nimble finger*,. A Unce is a. small tube abont the size of a squib, filled with ?pemi taoiw [tkan flr? ' p? Mat of actaal gun - InHtanoo, that ono wants tho head of Goorgo Wftfthington to appear i'.i tho heavens outlined by a brilliant hand of light. A scale of tho proportions of his face i? first mario from a pic ture. A largo frame is then lixiil on tho floor, and in tho centre of this frame with a bit of crayon in drawn on tho floor; according to tho nealo, a very much enlarged picture, usually measuring at least thirly inches from forehead to chin. A girl then takes a piece of rattan and bends it to tho ex act form of tho crayon outline. This is fastened to tho frame, and upon this rattan outline lancoft are j?l noo?l very close together, and arc connected by the quick match. Naturally, for this sort of work, and for all finishing oft* pro cesses, girla are preferred on account of tho superior flexibility of their fin gers and their general deftness. Among tho most fascinating fire works are always tho rockets and the beautifully flolntillattng complicated wheels which give such charm to set pieces. There will bo this year an in finitely now and beautiful variety of both theso devices. Rockets, display ing a swarm of xuagio dragon-like^' Ser pents with vermilion hued bodies, rockets bursting forth into a broad sproad of liquid gold with streams of glittering radiancy lighting up pretty parachutes, willow tree rockets, dia mond chain rook els-? rocket s without end. Then tho number and variety of wheels] "Whoelft with a brilliant outer ring encircling an inaido ring of rod or green, contra revolving wlmols with pota of Jiro in variegated colors, colored double triangle wheels, etc. Tho motive power of these delightful displays is simply duo to tho rapid evolution of gas. Ono has but to light tho fuso in order to produco gas with HnOioiont rapidity to press against tho air and thus impel tho picco forward in its course. Tho wheel is used as a motive power in Homp very funny act pieces. I was shown tho skeleton of a donkey out lined by tho lanoes and quick match in tho manner which I have described. Attached to it was a wheel which when sot in motion by alighting, acted upon tho legs of tho donkey in a most lively and vivacious manner. July 4 at (lunliiH's. "T like what tho Declaration of In dependence says," began Mr. Junius, buttering another biscuit, "about all men being created equal and" - "Weil, there, Julius Junius," cried his wife, staying tho'teapot in the air, "if that isn't jus? liko you to begin on 1110 in that way when I've luul tho hardest day in tho world with cannons going oft'overywhoro and making noise enough to almost paraly/.o one's tOnguo and 1110 having to put up pro servos over a hot firo just as if a legal holiday novor was in tho world and you oft' with a lot of your low men that I supposo are what, you moan by being created 'equal drinking all sorts of things that aro bad for tho blood /rind mine heated over tho preserving ket tle till it breaks out all over my faco I mean of eourso my blood and not the kettle and you think it smart now to sit there using twico as much butter as you ought to 011 those frosh biscuits and tho prico getting higher every day but a lot you oaro so long as 1 have tq^. ohurn it and twitting us woTnon with being inferior to jnon but wo scorn tho insinuation as you'll vory soon ftiul out whon we got tho ballot and show you protty quiok who's inferior and who ain't but for goodness gracious sako Julius Juhius don't, sit thoro in that aggravating way of yours saying nothing positively just like a deaf and dumb man who used to work for father 011 -tho farm that his unclo Isaao gave him I mean that father's Unclo Isaao ga<vo him and not the deaf and dumb man for of course .anybody s own unclo wouldn't go arouh'd giving away valuablo (tide-hill farms to deaf and dumb men that they never saw much loss spoko to and tell 1110 what it is you liko so much about what your old Declaration of Indopondonoo say a. " As Mrs. Junius whistled for brakes at tho blind orossing her husband slowly folded his napkin. "It was so long ago,'%fcJsaid, softly, "that I havo forgotten what I wAs (tliinking about."
