The Forum: 1t 1s frankly to be ad- mitted that for ordinary work enormous instruments are not advantagzeous; those of moderate aimensions will do far more eusily and rapidly the work of which they wre capabie. It would be poor econ- omy to shoot squirrels with fitteen inch cannon, Observers with smaller instru- ments, if they have sharp eyes, and use them faithfully, ean always tind enough to do, and can do it well.” But the great telescope has two advantages which sare decisive. In the first place, it collects more n‘flu. and so makes 1t possible to use higher maguifying powers, and thus virtnally to draw nearer to the object studied than we can with a smaller one; and, in the next place, in_consequence of what is known “diffraction,” the image of & luminous point made by a large lens is smaller and sharper than that made by a small one. The smaller the telescope the lurger are the so-called urious di of the stars,so that in the case of a close double star,for tance, where our nine-ineh telescope shows only an ovaldisk, the twenty-three inch shows two fine distinetly separated points. It1s true that the atmospheric disturbances, which always prevails to ¢ Lr:umr or less extent, very seriously af- t the “secing’’ with large instruments. ‘The “power of the prince of the air," which is to an astronomer the very type of the ‘‘total depravity of inanimate things."” on nine clear nights out of ten deprives a great telescope of much of its just superority, so that on an ordinary night a good observer with an averture of twelve or fitteen inches can make out all that ean be seen with twenty-four or thirty inches at the same time. And yel the writer has continually veritied in his xperience the obseryation of Mr. Clark, who said: “You can always see with a large telescope every- thing shown by a smaller oue—a little better 1f the seeing is bad; immen: better if it is good." But when a really good night comes, as once in a while it does, then to a Frent tolescope heaven opens, new worlds appear, new forms and fentures are discovered, old illusions are dissipated and observations and measurements before beyond the reach of human skill become possible, easy, and accurate, In fact, the reasonableness of wanting still larger telescopes is identi- cally the same as that of wanting a tele- scope at all. Of course, it is impossible to predict what discoveries will be made with the great Lick telescope when it is erected on its mountain of privilege— very likely none; 1t 18 not possible now to €0 out at night, as some seem to think, and pick up discoveries, as one would ather lowers in a forest. But we may e sure of this, that it will collect data, which will remove many old difficulties, will clear up doubts, will actually ad- vance our knowledge and, what is more important, will prepare the way and hew the steps for still higher climbing towurd the stars. — - Sore fashionable ladies are not satis- fied with ready-made fans, but must have them made to order; they are, how- ever, satisfied with Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup at 25 cents and take it regularly. - i Water as a Medicine. Harper's for October: Ordinary drink- ing water, taken in large quantities, acts as a solvent and a diruetic, and also increases the perspiration if the tempers tu of the air be high. Taken in the quantity of one or two quarts at a time, the diluent effect of water is often sufli- cient to eliminate an excess ot alcohol from the blood, as after taking too much wine. Another eftect of large draughts of water is to make the pulse slower, and to diminish slightly the normal tempera- ture of the budy. Increase of weight has been claimed as a result of systematic water-drinking on retiring for the night. The latest re- searches do not bear ont this conclusion, Water thus taken will prevent any actual loss of weight, but 1t is not shown that it will do anything more, With the addi- tion of a_moderate stimulant, howev it has often decidedly fattening effect. Swallowed as hot as it ean be borne, pure water, has lately come into some vogue as an efficient remedy for dyspep- tic and rheumatic ailments, and for re- duemg the obesity consequent upon idle habits and overeating. It is not yet shown that these effects are caused by the hot water. 1 have scen cases in which this treatment, conjoined with a diet al- most exclusively composed of lean meat and stale bread, has been followed by a great red on of the mvalid's weight; but thi result seemed to me due to the withholding of supera- bundant food from the patient, and not to any positive vittue in the hot water itself. " In dyspepsia the hot-water treat- ment sometimes succeeds for the same reason. Nuture, if given a chance, has a good deal to nthe cure of the ail- ments that result from misuse of the digestive organs, But this treatment has the double advautage of giving the dis- turbed stomach comparative vest, and of gently stimulating ‘it to the digestive duties that it cannot wholly forego, un- 1 the pationt 1s to be sustained by ith alone. Of the internal use of mincral waters this is not the occasion to spenk. - A perfect specilic—Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy. R A Scorplon Omelctte.

APHRAETTA, Ga.,, Sent. 21.-—( Antry is lying at the home of his Samuel A, Antry, at the point of death, His forehead i shed in, his nose is smashed into a jelly and his eyes are pro- truding. Calyin met this mistoriune while trying to play the role of ghost. Samuel A.

The young lady herself was perplexed by the atten- tions of the two brothers, and did not know how to express her preference for either. For the past two weeks the pro- tracted services have been held in Olear Spring church, to which all the partics belong. The young lady was escorted home every night by the brother who first reached her.

Rovert could not run and leave the girl on the road, so he picked a good sized rock, sharp and jagged, and let it fly with unerring aim, A scream of ain from the ghost told that it was uman. Robert ran up to it and dis- covered it was his own brother whom he had so severely punished. The girl was taken home in one wagon in hysteries, and Calyin was taken to the home of his father, bleeding and unconscious, and Robert is just now the hero of the neigh borhood for tackling such a formidable ghost.

A NEW FRANOESOA. (Written by Lily Cury Tyner.) A sudden, terrible silence and darkness fell upon the world of joy and beauty as <he read the letter. Not that she grew pale or uttered any word of discontent. She read slowly, with a vague smile upon her lips and her head just bowed a trifle as if 10 mute submission to any fate that should happen to rise up for her. The room was filled with this same silence— filled to overflowing, The sunset glow which had seemed to her so peaceful, 8o racious, 8o poetic, had vanished and in ts stead a great shadow ocum- bered the walls. Yet the place was no less a lovely place; a deep room filled with all that one can dream of luxury. a room where art made all har- monious from velvet-hidden floor to pmnted ceiling. Flowers distilled their bloom from the lace-draped width of window enclosure; more flowers bloomed in the hothouse. Oceans of flowers, All the flowers she might have longed for in the old days when she trod the city pave- ments in her poverty, hungering, ~thirst- ing, aye, even suffering for other things than flowers, and cheaper. As she read the letter this thought came to her with the others, which were a myriad. No;there wis nothing now any more; nothing but silence and shadow since that letter's coming—that letter from her husband, She let it fall upon her lap at last and dropped her hands upon it. Then one might have seen her face more clearly— lifted, with the sume vague smile, a dark, pale face with a certain irregularity of features which made it only the more fascinating, and ripe, small mouth and eyes like depths of sea. He was coming home. Her husband was coming home. The husband she searcely knew. Coming perhaps to-mor- row, purhn‘u to-might. And Paul® What of Paul? Would he go away? Would he never come again? How could she live without Paul? And yet—her husbnnd was coming home. The husband who had taken her from all her troubles, all her poverty, all her wretchedness; lifted her to his estate, and left her—to her fate. S had ‘been a wife how long? She had to pause and count the time;a husbandless wife, wife only in name and privilege. How strange to think of the pust three years! Of all the intervening time sinee that swarthy, bearded, elderly face had first looked upon her and . straigtway brought relief. “*Poor child!" " She could never forget the words, though the swarthy, elderly face loomed only like a vague shadow. “‘Poor child!

Glassware can be regarded both asa nececessity and a luxury, the latter from the beauty of the material composing the article and the artistic work bestowed it. The impression prevails to a ble sive glass. ware, like exp porcelain, will not break so readily as the cheaper grades, but this is a delusion.. There is no real motive for the purchuse of the expensive article except the gratification of a taste for luxury. The United States possesses ull the natural ad- vantages that are possessed by the liuropean countries for the manufac- ture of glass, and in the use of natural gas it has one important factor nos pos- sessed abroad. The cleanliness of gas and cheapness and the ease with which it is managed certainly give to the glass nufacturers of Piltsburg and thau inity an advantage not possessed in O On the other hand, Europe has its exceedingly cheap labor, it has the talent of families devoted to the artistic productions of glass for geaerations, and 1t has its art schools, greater in number and superior in teaching to those of the United State: For these ahead of th sons Europe is a long way States in ingenuity ot design, , patterns and de tion. Gless from earliest historie ages has been a favorite medium for the expr auty. The fluid char- acter of the original substance permits it 1o be moulded to an infinite variety of forms, and the most delicate shades of coloring may be infused through its crys- clearness so as to adapt it to the lux- urious uses of the table. The highest development of art is in the production of cameo glass. Evidences of this art in its perfection are very ancient, and even in the beginning of the christian era very beautiful and expensive articles of glass were in use. At that time also &luss in its common forms was a cheap articie. At 50 B, C. a cup and saucer of glass could be boughtat Rome for money cquivalent to our cent. [Illusteating the other extreme, it 1s historically nar- rated that the Kmperor Nero paid a sum equivalent to ,000 for two cups of moderate dimensions. Window gluss did not appear until the third century of the Christian era, and it did not come into general use until the fiftcenth cen- tury. In 1661 only the principal cham- ber’s of the king's palace in Engiand had window glass. Egzypt offers the earli positive ovi- dences of gl ng. Glass bottles containing red wines are said to be rep- resented on the monuments of the fourth dynasty, more than 4,000 years ago, and in the tombs of avery early period the process of glass blowing is represented in an unmistakable manner. In the time of the Roman Emperor Hadrian, among the chief industrial occupations of the inbabitants of Alexandria is mentioned lowing; and during the reign of Aurclian, in the third century, glass formed a part of the showing it was then an article of manu facture 1n Egypt. The delicate coloring of glass, that adds =0 much to its beauty, was known in ancient times. These colors are produced by a mixture with metals; for stance, blue is pro- duced by cobalt, green by copper, and rose or ruby hy gold. The great site of the manufacture of glass in the middle ages was Nenice, and 1ts articles of manufacture were exported® all over the world, The glass trade of ¢ as been - superseded by England and Germany. Silicon, of which there is 90 per cent. in good ' glass sand, is tho principal in- nt in gluss. Lead enters invo the superior qualities of glass, giving it clearness and brilliancy, and the musi- cal ring of a glass article only comes from bad glass.
