Thus far soapstone is proving itself an
excellent substitute for fire bricks. It
stands very high temperatures and it does
not glaze, arid it has several other desira-
ble properties which render it very use~
ful in the house and in the foundry, [but
costs vastly more than fire brick and so
does not come into general use.
From the report of OonsulnFrisbie it
appears that the mnufacture in France
of fine champagne requires great care and
skill from the picking of the grapes until
the product is sent to market At least
two years is requisite to make good
champagne. '
Good shellac varnish is made as fol-
lows: Take of very pale shellac five
pounds, mastic one ounce, and alcohol
five or six pints, and dissolve in the cold
to prevent the evaporation of the alcohol,
stirring the mixture meanwhile. This is
a good varnish for furniture, and it is
much employed in France by cabinet
makers. -
An artificial leather, says the Engineer-
ing, mixed with five to ten per cent. of
siuew and pressed into sheets like ordi-
nory leather card board, has been recently
made in Germany. Both materials are

but the following rates give some idea
about the duties attending the introduc-

steam engine, without boiler, pays a duty
of six francs per 100 kilogr mes of its
weight; engines for agric ral pur-
poses, 'five francs; steam boilers, eight
francs; tubular boilers, twelve francs;
gasbmeters, uncovered boilers, of cast or

inthis country are logwood and fustic
from the West Indies, lime from the
shores of the Pacific, and the bar and
cam woods from Africa. The woods
mentioned, with the exception of fustic,
which is yellow, are red, but of various
shades. The sapponia wood, which is a.
delicate pink, comes from the East Indies.
The cost of the woods in the rough are,
"according to the Providence Jouma, 'as
follows : Logwood, from $20 to $25 a ton ;

The Western Machinist gives the follow-
figures concerning belts, that may be of
interest: “The horse power of a belt
equals its velocity in feet per minute,
multiplied by the Width, the sum divided
by 1,000 ; for instance, l-inch single belt,
moving at 1,000 feet per minute, equals .
l-horse power; 3 Deuble belts, about 700 '
feet per minute per one inch wide, give '
I-horse power. For double belts of great .
length over large ’pulleys, allow about
500 feet per minute per one inch of width
for each horse power. Power should be
communicated through the lower running
side of a belt ; the upper side to carry the
slack. The average breaking weight of a
leather belt one inchwide and three-six-
teentlls inch thick is computed at 530
pounds; that of a three-ply rubber, 000
pounds. The strength of a belbincreases'
' directly as,itsfwidth; The coeffiicientlof
. safety for a laced belt is one-sixteenth'bf
its breaking. weight for leather; one-
eighth of its breaking weight for rubber.
It is evident, from the correspondence
of the Science News, that a considerable
number of persons believe that when di-
rect sunlight falls upon flame, combus-
tion is less active, and will ultimately be
arrested by it. The view is, however,
erroneous, as has been proved by care-
fully conducted experiments. A" candle
need so as to burn at a uniform rate,
‘ t. delicate bilances, shows no

allude. Precise] the same
umber of grains of the solid material are
- .. Lin"
changed in and out of sunlightin a given ‘
time. When we kindle a wood or coal
fire upon the hearth, it appears to the
eye that the flame is less intense if. sun-
light comes in through the uncurtained
window and rests upon the ignited. fuel ;,
but this appearance is delusive. We need
shade to observe clearly the process of
combustion, especiallyowhen the flame is'
largely composed bf burning hydrogen
or ‘carbonic oxide. A pure hydrogen
flame is invisible in sunlight, and even
_ light carburetted gases are indistinctly
seen by daylight. No one need fear that
sunshine will put out fire.

the fact that marble clocks, vases, um-

the pretext of a purchase, and occasion-

"‘ What becomes of all the geesnbacks
their few years of usefulness f" is a free
quent inquiry. A bank-note has its life
just the same as all other things useful.
What an interesting story the travels of
a greenback from the moment it leaves
the press until it returns to the macera-
tiug machine would make! The average
life of a bank-note is about three years,
perhaps a little longer. . After serving its
purpose as currency it is metamorphosed
into rabbits, birds and other figures.
The process of the destruction of the
notes is an interesting one. The readers
will often see inthe daily papers 0 para-
graph something like this: “National
bank-notes received for redemption to.
day, five hundred thousand dollars.”
The next day these notes we carried to
the bureau of Engraving and Printing
and‘placed in a machine containing large
knives, which ‘ tip the notes into frag-
ments. Theo ”on is conducted un-

the men who run the machine. They are
compelled toremain in the room until
each separate note is destroyed They
must account in detail afterward to the
Redemption Bureau for each note; and
should one become lost or mislaid, and
afterward find its: way into circulation,
the result would be the immediate dis-
chargeof the threemen who daily have
in their custody from $500,000 to 82.000.-
, 000, or- $3,000,000 worth of notes and
bonds. The shreds are reduced, to
pulp, and then by a patented process
this mass is molded into figures of
birds and‘ animals, and sold as memen-
toss to visitors. Oftentimes it will hap-

posed of what was once $100, 000, 000
worth of money. '

_ AOlever Trick. . _
A neat way of obtaining money under
false pretenses was carried out on a train
at Stamford the other day. A boy was
just about to be put off by the conductor
because he could not pay his fare any fur-
ther. A generous man came along who
heard his story to the eflect that he was
going to see his dying mother, and was so
moved by the pitiful situation, that he
declared the boy should have his fare paid
and something more. He started a collec-
tion by giving $5, and the sum- of $18.30
was raised and handed over to the boy to
pay his fare and make his mother com-
fortable when he arrived home. The gen-
erous man was the boy’s father, and the
plan was contrived before they left New
York. ‘ .

ing. The-process of coating iron plates
with tin was-first invented in Bohemia,
or Silesia, in the forepart of the seven-
teenth'century; but, like everything else
in those times,- the process was very
crude. The iron plates at that time were
produced by hammering, and of course
vaned' much in thickness, and seldom
exceeded six or eight inches in width
and. length; these plates were heated,
dippedin water, mixed with wood-ash,
“1,911,901!!!“ by scrubbing them by
handwith sand, covered with a greasy
substance and. dipped into molten tin.
.4 On'account of the uneven surface of the
ircnplatns, a heavy coating of tin—from
,flfieen to twenty-pounds per hundred
pounds of iron—was necessary to pro-
duce a bright appearance The plates
that were made in those times were very
costly. and-were mostly worked into cui-
noses for warriors, ornaments for church
steeples, and occasionally into vessels for
familyuse; but the latter were so ex-
pensive that a piece would be keptas a
