rich man may have a closet in whie
the harness may hang safely from feti

the avorage horse owner will have hi
pegs behind the team, because he ca

if the prevalent odors Injturiously aflee

it is no place for the horse. A barre

t- A WonderfAt Testing Mfachiae.-The
is great machine designed by Mr. Albert
inery, for the United States Commis
e sion for testing iron and steel which
i. has been in process of construction for
g three years past at Watertown (Mass.)
k Arsenal, Is now completed. 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

Lt During the campaign in Egypt, some
t. sailors in harbor took it into their heads 1

r How to get there wvas, however, a mat
ter of difficulty, but Not too great (or a

miumade to fly directly over the pillar. A1
two-Inch rope was thein tied to one

y affixed By this rope one of the sea

DOMESTIC.
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.

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

itsiest and pork the hardost to diaest. q

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

"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."

Were suffering like myself. I distributed quite
number of them, and from every one re
oeived a favorabio report. I would not to

would say : "Give Anakesas a trial and you
will no longer be a sufferer."

Pistole and Prayers.
Some time ago a Deputy Sheriff' and
three other citizens of Rvath Counity,
Texas were charged with a warrant
for the arrest of Rusk Holloway,
and reached the house in the midst
of a prayer-meeting. Rusk Hollo
way refused to surrender his arms,
and in a moment the officers were sur
rounded by enemies. Rusk common cod
shooting, and Robertson fell dying af
ter escaping from the house. The light
now amounted to a regular battle. 'T'he
voice of prayer was hushed in the whiz
of bullets and the bang, bang, bang of
guns and pistols. In the meantime the
smoke of gun-powder and the groans of
the wounded and dying ascended to
gether. Keith and Ross, in the nildst
of a shower of bullets, ran quickly
around the opposite side o the house.
Just as he reached a small tree Ross lel,
pierced by a ball. But with 'his six
ahooter still In his hand the doomed vie
tim rose to his knees, clung to the tree
with one band and tried to shoot with
the other. At this moment old man
llolloway and h is daugh ter appeared oi
the scene of carnage, and hastening to
where Ross lay clinging to the tree de
manded the stirrnnder of his six-shooter
Ross replied that he might have it pro
vided he would let him take out the one
remaining cartridge. IHoloiway and his
datughter, the -eyes of the girl flaming
and her long hair floating on the south
wind, which blew away the smoke of
the fight, then seized the pisiol of the
woulned man, and by main force
wrenched it from his hands, enfeebled
as they were through loss of blood.
The old man then like it veritable flend
placed the niuzzle of Ross' own pistol
against the side of the wounded man
andl fired. Ross with a gro-in fell over
deond, lisa mulrderer cooly exteinding his
1:feless body on the groundl, all be
