" dd MM THE DISPOSITION TO LABOR. Be Mmdt with your work. Don't grumble and growl at it nor frown upon it. Ia all pro. liability you will have to apend more of your waking hours with it than with anything else. If ynu are at odds with it, it will he apt to pmve a surly companion. Meet it with a amil. ing cuuntenance, and it will smile back at you. Let your blows on anvil or bench be heaity, but not spiteful; a slap on the luck, not a blow 111 the face. Clasp hammer or saw aa though ynu were shaking hands with a friend, not sav agely as though it were the throat of an adver aary. Then the sounds that they give baok will be as music and laughter, and not the angry vuice of acrimonious retort. Be jn-oud of your work, not ashamed of it, or it will be pretty sure to have reason to be ashamed of you. Treat it with respeot and con aideratiun, aa though worthy of your very best attentions and effort, and it will repay you by winning respect and consideration for you. It will speak to your praise in every good quality you have imparted to it, and win the nottoe and good will of those who are seeking good work men, and are willing to pay for quality. He mutter of your work. Don 't let it master you. iSume fond weak mothers let their children go dirty, because they don't like to have their faces washed, and it takes a little firmneaa and trouble to bring them to terms. Don't let some unsightly detail mar your whole job, just be cause it takes some time and paiua to bring sume crnss.graioed piece of timber or iron to just the proper appearance and ahape. Sueh a defect will thrust itself into notioe, aa though it said to the beholder, "Look here! he could not bring me into subjection." Rather by pains taking aud perseverauce and care let every de tail, as it stands perfect and complete, say, "I am what my master made me, and that ia the very best that could be made out of me." Gold Vii:i 1, i r,.-.;,,.. . l..:.j , 1 -,umvD,ujj lucuiiauimi ojicration is the manufacture of gold wire for what is known as gold lace. The refiner flrat lic,.res a soiui rou ol silver about an inob in thickness; he beats this rod, appliea upon the surface a sheet of gold leaf, burnishes thu down and so on, until the gold ia about one hundredth part the thicknesa of the lilver. The Nd u then subjected to a train of prooesaea which bnnga it down to the state of fine wire, when it ia passed through holes in a steel plate lesiening sup by step in diameter. The gold never deserts the silver, but adheres closely to it, and shares all ita mutationi; it ia one-hun-dredth part the thickneas of the silver at the beginning, and it maintains the aame ratio to the end. As to the thinness to which the gold coated rod of silver can be brought, the limit depend, upon the delicacy of human skill.
