Some ex " perimental test made with it in the t e presence of the commissioners are thus 1 e described In The Boston Traveler: The o merit of this new testing machino is Its I great power united with its mathemat. I Ih ical accuracy. A live lch bar of Iron r was pulled apart, and the strain regis t Lered in doing it was 722,000 a pounds. To attest its initute exact a ness, a horse hair was next submitted e to the strali, and it yielded to a regis I tered force of two pounds. Again, a - pine block of four inches thickness and t two f:et in length was taken and press - ed into a board of two Inches thickness. : Then to ascertain its riefinement of a curacy, a hen's egg was taken and lin s c'osed in plaster of Paris, with two s small holes at each end, and, the press- * ure being applied, the contents were forced out o0 these small apertures att at strain of thirty-two pouids, and such e Is the comand over the action of the t t machine that the pressure was stopped I In an instant, and tle yolk ceased to be t I expelled, and the shell of the remain- t . lug sunbackan. A nut was also cracked C I b)y the lach ine without crushing the ' kernel. No such nicety of regulated ' pressure, comnbined wita such an enhor 1mous rango of power and absolutely I exact registration of the exerted, has t i ever before been attained. 'T'n cost of c the machine to the Government, under i the contract, is $31,000, ht, Mr. Emery ; has expenided over $100,000 ini perfect - ug it. A Powerful Spectroscope.-A new spec- i troscope of renarkalble power 1hats just I been brought' to the notice of the '1 French Academy by M. Thollon. Its I chief 1eaturi' is the use of sulphide of i carbon prisms, which are closed later- e illy, not by plates with parallel faces, It but by. prisms having curved sides g mleetiug at an angle. Two of these t compound prisms are used in the spec- t troscope, and in this way an enormous t dllspelsii Is out.ainted; with a ma1gni lying power of fifteen to twenty times, t the 1pecturu has a length of fifteen m1etres. This ilstrument shoul throw s consilerable light on the structure of t the spectrutm, antd M. TholIon hag all-h ready noticed sone interesting facts.

CISTCRN AND FILTER.-Pure watet ? or domestic use is of great importanoe: .n most wells the water Is more or less mpregnated with lime, or other min tral or earthly aubstance, so that It lot so pure its rain water. Wells are >ften sat deep that it is hard drawing he water. For family use I recon nend the cistern. Most places where t well can be dug, and where it is not andy so as to cave, a cistern can be )lastered with cement without walling vith brick or stone. When I built my ouse, four years ago, I dug my cistern ack of the house befobre I built the ummner kitchen, so as to have it in the itchen. The filterer is a small cistern, ne or two feet from the other cistern, vith a tile for a spout in connect them. l'ho end of this pipe in the filterer is nclosed by a small circular brick wall, r a double wall of two Inches each, rith a s pace of two inch"s between, vnich is filled with pulverized charcoal. t 'he surface of this liltering wall Is I carcely a square yard, and that, part of I lie rouf dscharging into the cistern is wenty-four feet by forty. Yet it is s 'ly the most violent thunder shower q hat gives more than enough water to ass readily through the filterer. The iaiin cistern is six feet in dianeter and -, wenty-four feet deep. This gives us uol water all summer-as cool as well n rater. We draw with it chain putmp, a rhich keeps the air and water circu- t tted, so that it is pure. I prefer to c ave the Illrerer outside the main cis- 1 'rn, and being shallow, it is easily p leaned. Both cisterns are covered 1 rithi a brick arch. In the cistern of a ix feet in diameter, the arch is started rith a grove cut in the earth for the i Ejtt,Omi of thle ar'ch. Theli eartht holds it ailuielntly from where the cistern is I lastered. The arch rises threofeet, it avnig three feet of earth over it. In o 'nomas's book, " Farm Impleinents.'' lotind the following'rule for measur- a tg cisterns: Five feet in diameter, itch foot in depth will contain four v id two-t,hirds barrels of thirty-two allons; six feet in diameter, six and iree-fourths; seven feet, nine and one velftlh barrels; eight feet, nearly velve barrels. - - - 0 WHAT TO EAT.-Iln at lecture before f to Workingmen's Lyceum. Dr. Seguin c poke as follows of food: An ordinary i leal is generally composed of five in- a redients--anninal or nitrogeneous food, n tarchy or sweet food, watery vegeta- t los, beverages and condiments. 'This o mod, when digested, is taken into the it i"stem by blood vessels. For persons, i nid uspeclally for workingmen, in this limate, enteitt are the most easily di estod, and at the same time are the lost nourishing fooat. Tripe is the h itsiest and pork the hardost to diaest. q Lmong vegetables, rice and boiled cal- b age are the extremes. Anything that 4 I fried in fat is extremely lndigestibl .

Mr. Wm. J. Andrew., of Columbia, Tenn., writes the following: Me2are, Ntusma'ran& Co., New York: GatTe--For upward of 20 years I have been afficted with the Piles. When I first took them they were blind and very painful. For about ten years they continued as blind then commenced bleeding. The hemorrhoids eon tinued to increase until I was losing at every stool fully a gill of blood, and frequently, while standing at my desk,tho blood would run down into my boots. I have had these hem orrhoids to last for several hours. In the meantime, like a drowning man. I was grasp ing at everything, trying to find relief. On one occasion I had them cauterized, which, after intense suffering for over a month, effected temporary relief, for a short time only however. About ten months since, while at stool. my eye foil on an advertisement headed In lrr,o letters, ''Pies," "Send 2 cent stamp and get cirolar." I did so and received a few "Plan llunt Facts" in reply, after reading which. I concluded it was such plain common sense that I would give "Anakesie" a trial. I did so and the roe At was, that aft. r a few days use, the bleedin.t ceased and I have not suffered a moment's pain since. it is said that "a fellow feeling makes one wondrous kind." RPo. knowing quite a number of friends who Were suffering like myself. I distributed quite number of them, and from every one re oeived a favorabio report.
