The price of commercial borax lias
flatly decreased during the past three
Jars. It can be bought now for half
at it coat in 1882. Then the market
Hi
t
e was eleven cents a pound, and at
tie present time it is five and a half
ients a pound. This falling off in
prices ha continued notwithstanding
the imposition of a tariff which virtually
prohibits tlio importation of borax and
borucio acid. It has lcen due, there
fore, to the consumption not keeping
f up with the supply. The production of
borax on the l'acitic coast, which is the
only part of this country where it is
found, lias been steadily very large.
Last year four thousand five hundred
tons were extracted by the various
niming companies in this Statu and
Nevada. Its use has Jiot grown more
limited, but it has not kept puce with
the production. It is employed in
welding, glazing, pottery and "cleans
ing. The iron trade consumes Hie
largest quantity of borax, and with the
increase of that industry the business
of borax-mining will be beneliled.
New uses are being found for this min
eral. At first it was thought lit onlv
for iron-workers and blacksmiths It
detersive qualities were revealed after
ward. The manufacture of glazed
iron and earthenware was begun
after other virtues were discovered in
borax, and now it is employed in
packing meats in Chicago. Notwith
standing the supply from Italy, large
quantities of borax are exported to En
rope from the Pacific coast. Last
week seven hundred and seventy-five
thousand pounds were shipped from
this port to Liverpool. Some of the
London illustrated papers contained

The supply on this coast is practical

MIDDLE AGE FEASTS.
A Time When Forks Were Unknown a
Everybody Vsed the Same Napkin. I
The more wo study the history ol I
middle ages, tho more we are stru
by the immense amount of eating th
indulged in; not artistic, epicure
eating either, but a brutal eonsumpti
of gross viands. One of the grands .
most famous banquets merit oned in
Ital an history was that given in the
l'ala.zo dell' Aren.a rit Milano, on the
loth of June, 1308, on the occasion of
the marriage of Lionel Planlagenet,
Duke of Ch'iarenza, and son of Edward
III. of England, to Violante Visconti,
daughter of Galeazzo II. and of Ulanche
of Savov. his wife.
The intervals between the courses,
which in this instance, were eighteen
in number, were very long, and each
interval was tilled up by amusements
of various kinds. Usually jesters and
buffoons were introduced, but at th's
grand wedding no vulgar fun whs ad
missible, and the old chronicle which
records the various courses adds that
each courso was followed by its ap
propriate diversion. Thus, after the
two stewed sows and two roast stur
geons, a procession of pages filed
through the banquet hall, leading
superb hunting dogs ornamented with
velvet collars, to which were attached
copper chains and silken lashes.
Spoons and forks were noticeable by
their absence, the jeweled fingers of
the guests shone with grease and were
scented with garlic as they plunged
their hands into the dishes, tore the
viands apart and tossed the fragments
which remained under the table. It
was not in vain that the sealchi, or
carvers, continually went about the
tables bearing bowls o? "odoriferous

nf thp individual napkin, bv-tho-bve,
was then unknown, nor were people
in the least fastidious as to soiling their
hands. Monsignor Delia Casa, in ;iw
famous "Galatea," earnestly recom
mends the lords and ladias of his time
not to "grease their hands too much

hand in the dish is quite unnecessary,"

On the other hand, the Reverend
San Pier Damiano inveighed against
the use of the fork, declaring it to be a
"d abolical piece of luxury;" and he
, severely censured the Dagaressa Teo
daro Selvo for extravagance and self-
indulgence, because, in order to avoid
soiling her fingers, she used a golden

IN WINDSOR CASTLE.
Ofllclal Faroes Acted by tin yuren. Sup
ported by Her Minuter.
The Queen of Kngland's finest resi
dence is Windsor Castle. In fact, in
telligent Londoner often said to me
that lluckingliain I'alaco was a misera
ble old rat-trap, not tit for Victoria and
her family to live in, while thoy were
as ready to declare that Wiudsor Castle
was the finest royal palace in (ho world.
The Queen spends a large portion of
the year at Windsor, and there she
transacts a largo proportion of that
formal yet mainly rather amusing use
less court business, the details of which
are daily paraded in the the Court Jour
nal. Those matters are mostly quite
familiar to averago readers, yet ouo or
two curious illustrations of the point
in hand are too singular to bo om.tted.
Here, for ins'ance, is the Court Cir
cular for a day in early spring. In it
this item: -The Sheriff of Lancashire,
at a private audience which the Queen
gave tho Chancellor of the Duchy of
Lancaster, was pricked by the Queen.
Tho Sheriffs for England and Wales
were pricked by her Majesty at the
council on Thursday last, tho Ath hut.,
and not after it, as stated ia tho Court
Circular for that date.
Now what does all this mean? The
explanation is simply this: Every year
the Judges of Assizes make return to
the Queen of three persons for every
county in England, from which sho is
to select one to serve as Sheriff of each
county.
When these names, written upon a
sheet of paper, are presented to the
Queen, sho takes in her fingers a pin
aud sticks it t'irougli 0110 of them, be
ing thus supposed to indicatoher choice
to make jut selection.

Tho forms gone through at the palace
when a address of the Queen is to be
presented to Parliament are peculiar.
The Ministry the Prime Minister pro
pares the speeoli, and then the Cabinet
liiaKos a stately ana most iormai jour
ney to Windsor for the purpose of read
ing tho document to her Majesty., After
it has been read in her presence it is
supposed to become her speech from
the throne. tsoston Commercial uune-

THE OYSTER.
Mow the Creature IJullds IU Shell Some
lllralvtilnr Intelligence.
In buildiug its shell the oyster starts
with tho hinge end, at tho spot known
to conchologists as the umbo. A small
plate or single scale now represents
each valve, and that is the first sea
son's growth. The next season a new
growth or plate shoots out from under
neath the first one. just as the shingles
do. The oystermen call these laps or
plates "shoots," and they claim that
the number of shoots indicate the years
of the oyster. They certainly do con
tain a record of the seasons. Hut there
is often great difficulty in differentiat
ing these shoots. I he record is often
obliterated ia places by tho growth of
the para-ites, which build their shells
or tubes upou tho oyster. I have
likened these shoots to shingles. Now,
at the gable of the house these shingles
may be seen edgewise. So on the ono
sido of an oyster shell is a series of
lines. This is the edgewise view of the
shoots or season growths. Another
factor is this purple spot, or scar, in the
interior of the shell It is the place of
attachment of the abductor muscle. Its
first place of attachment was close up
to the hinge. Had it staid there until
the shell lial become adult how diffi
cult would be the task of putting the
valves together, the leverage to be over
come would be so great; for he must
bear in mind the fact that at the hinge
end the valves are held by this black
ligament, which is la life elastic, swell
ing when the shell opens and being
compressed when the animal draws
the valves together. So with every
rear's growth or elongation of
the shell the mollusk moves the
place of attachment of the muscle
onward, that is an advance further
from the hinge. As it doss so
it covers up with white nacre all the
scars that are back of the one i:i actual
use as the point of the attachment of
the muscle, inis you can prove Dy
eating off with nitric acid this covering,
and thus exposing the whole iife series
of scars or attachments. Cleveland
