Resistance of Woods to Strain.
Professor U. H. Thurston, of the Stevens
Institute of Technology, couimunlcnteg to
the Journal of the Franklin Institute n descrip
tion of an apparatus devised by him for deter
mining the torsional resistance of materials,
and also the result obtained by submitting
specimens of different woods to experiment.
By mechanism the force producing torsion is
transmitted through tho test-piece, and mores
a pencil which traces upon paper a curve, the
ordiuates of which are proportional to the tor
sional moment, while its abscissas represent
the amount of torsion to which the specimen
has been subjected, thus indicating the relative
stiffness, strength, and resilience of tho mater
ial experimented upon very perfectly. The
test-pieces were se en-eighths of an inch in
thickness at tho middle or smallest part.
Some of tho conclusions drawn from the re
mits am as follows: White pino jields quite
rapidly as the torsiouul moment increases.
The maximum strength of the test-piece was
15 foot-pounds, and it was twisted complete
ly off at a total anglo of torsion of 1309. The
substanco is thus shown to havo little resili
ence. Yellow pine has much greater strength,
stiffness and resilicnco. The sap-wood is
equally stiff with tho heart-wood, but sooner
passes Its limit of elasticity. Spruce is less
tiff than white piuo even, but possesses
greater strength and resilience, its moment of
reslstunco reaching 18 foot-pounds and twist
ing through a total uugle of torsion of 2003.
Ash seems to be weaker and less tough than is
Ronerally supposed. Its most striking pecu
liarity is its very rapid loss of strength after
passing its limit of elasticity. Spanish mahog
any is very stiff and strong. It is deficient in
toughness nnd resilience, losing its power of
resistance very rapidly after passing tho limit
of elasticity. White oak has less torsional
strength than cither good mahogany, locust, or
hickory, but is remarkable for its wonderful
toughuiBS. It pusses its limit of elasticity at
15, but loses its resisting power very slowly.
The latter rcmnius unimpaired to a torsion of
70, and jields completely at 233'. Mill
Wrights aro evidently correct in holding this
wood in high esteem for strength, toughness,
and power of resisting heavy shocks and
strains.

A correspondent of The Fhld, au English jour
nal, relates his experience in keeping fruits and
vegetables in an ice-house. Ilosajs: "I lay
them upon cotton, in tin boxes (biscuit boxes
will do) without any packing about them, shut
down tho lid, and set tho boxes on tho ice, not
buried in it. Peaches I havo kept quite n
month in this way after they were dead ripe,
and nectarines six weeks. I pluco them in
shallow tin boxes, putting a piecu of cotton be
tween the fruits, but otherwise leaving them uu
coverci1. After they havo bicn long on the Ice
thoy should not be brought out loug before they
are used, us they do not keep loug afterwards
without showiug specks. Teudtr-lleslieil mol
ons, thatwill not keepa week in the fruit room in
summer, will keep three or four weeks in the
ico-houso. Cucumbers will keep a very long
time, and I have known tho autumn and winter
supplies great y prolonged by storiug them
away in boxes in the samo way as fruit. French
beans should be packtd in bundles and sit on
their ends in boxes. I am sure those who try
tho plan ouco will resort to it again,"
Knamkl ron Corrhn Cookino Vkssma. To
enamel the iubide of Conner cooking vessels in
which acid fruit aud vegetables aro cooked, and
thus prevent the formation of tho so-called
"vtrdigris, tun following method is recom
mended: Twelvo parts of white fluor mmr,
twelve parts unburnt gypsum, and one part
borax are finely nowdcreu. intlmatelv mixed,
and fused iu a crucible. Tho fused nmss is
then poured out, and after cooling is rubbed up
to a paste. The copper vessel is to bo coated
inside with this preparation, applied by nuaus
of a brush, and tho vessel placed in a moder
ately warm place, so that the coating may dry
uniformly; after which it is subjected to a
gradually increasing heat, till ut length tho
preparation fuses. On cooling, tho csel is
found to be protected internally by a white,
opaquo enamel, adhering very llrniiy to the
copper, not chipplug off by ordinary Knocking
and rubbing, and impervious to cgctable acids.
Economical So nth. As cheap perfumes aro
ofttu required to 1111 little fancy bottles, such
as are sold at tho bazaurs, toy-shops, arcades
aud other places, the following rtcipes for thtlr
manufacture will be found of service:
1. Spirits of wine, ouopiut; essence of ber
gauiot, one ounce.
2. Spirits of wine, ouopiut; otto of santal,
ono ounce.
3. Spirits of wine, ono pint; otto of French
lavender, half ounce; otto of borgatuot, half
ounce; otto of clous, ouo dram.
1. Spirits of wine, one pint; otto of lemon
grass, three-fourths ouuco; essence of lemons,
half emnco.
0. Spirits of wine, ono pint; otto of petit
graiu, quarter ounce; otto of oraugo peel, half

and Country Otnlltmnn, by a correspondent,
who Mgus herself "Daisy Kyi bright:" Xnil

a large uttio or wood-house chamber not iu use.
Then paint it over with a thick coat of Unset d
oil and burnt umber. Let it dry inthoinughl;
add a coat of good vuruisli. Let that dry for a
wetk or two, and it can be scrubbed and washed
with milk and water like an oil-cloth. Paint
it on the wrong side-, and uail it down iloscly,
for it nerd not betaken up for many j ears.
As the varnish and paint wear off, renew them,
aud thus it will last four times as long as com
mon oil-cloth. K " II "chooses, he cm orna
ment it with a border of scarlet, green or
blue lines.
Vakmsh ron Liuils. Never varnish a label
for acid bottles, but use parulliue instead The
only thing necessary is to brush tho parufilne
on as hot as possible, so as to get a thin, even
coating. It looks as well as aruuh, and
stands a great deal better. It hums a gnat
ileal of trouble in BUing aud varnishing, and
rive minutes after the bottle has been brushed
it is ready for use. Instead of sealing the tops
of bottles sample bottlesof bleaching powder,
uml for other purposes it is very convenient
to have a small porcelain dish with parulliue
always ready, which cm bo placed upon u
lamp, and, as soon as warm, dip the top of the
bottle in it, which gives as good a fcealinewax,
or better, uud causes very much less trouble.

Twenty Rules tor Health.
1. Remember, tho Author of tho laws which
covern the human body is the author of the
Ten Commandments.
2. Infidelity to the laws established that
maukiud should be healthy aud happy is the
greatest sin of the present generation,
3. Bo cheerful, trustful of others, and faith
ful to ) our own best conception of duty. Never
brood over troubles that you have, and be sure
you never borrow any.
4. Ue much iu tho suulight, and prefer light
colored clothiug.
5. Drones must die. Exercise liberally aud
live. lie out-doors all you can while the sun
shines.
0. Ureathe pure air. Live with open win
dows, and tho wiudows of heaven will bo more
likely to open for jon.
7. Pray with a pure hoart aud a clean skin.
Uathe often.
8. Avoid stimulation by spirits of all kinds,
strong coffee and tea, opium and tobacco.
9. Keep tho head cool, feet and heart warm,
hopes heavenward, and finger nails clean.
10. Eat only three times daily, and never be
tween meals not a nut or an apple. Drink
nothing while eating.
11. Ouo hearty moal of meat per day is suffi
cient. Tho other two should be spare.
12. Avoid late, hearty suppers, pork, spices
and pepper, rich pastry, and imperfectly cooked
tonus.
13. Wheat, oat and barley meal, with beans,
peas, lean meats, fish and wild gatuo aro the
best articles of food.
1 1. Fruits aro cooling to the blood, and speci
ally adapted to warm weather.
1G. Eat slowly, masticate your food well, and
rat nothing for three hours before retiring.
10. Let the time spent at tablo bo happy.
Encourage pleasant, choerful conversation;
joke, but do not argue, Host a half-hour alter
every hearty meal.
17. Sleep eight hours of each day.
18. Drain, bone and muscle aro built of dif
ferent material, aud tho brain-worker should
have food different from the muscle-worker.
He is not thoroughly educated who cannot se
lect food adapted to his needs.
19. Avoid corsets, aud suspend no article of
clothing from the waist. Protect every part of
tho body from chill and exposure.
20. Study hjgiouo, attend health lectures
and read health literature. As you are igno
rant or intelligent in physiology will your hab
its be wise or otherwise.
Artificial Fibrinc as Food.
Pertinent to tho BUbject recently discussed
iu tho article entitled " Chemical Pood for Men
and Animals," wo find in tho liritish Medical
Journil a communication from Dr. John Good
man upon artificial fibrino, as food, iu which
ho strongly recomnuinU it as a diet for sick
persons, and gives tho following directions for
its manufacture and use: "As a member of the
British Medical Association, and in tho com
mon iuterests of humanity, I havo pleasure in
calling attention to my discovery of this new
elletctio substanco. So far as I have employed
it, it promises fair to be Invaluable iu medical
practice, especially iu cases of feeble nliuienta
tlon and deficient nutrition, aud second to
none iu those rases where rejection of food
forms a prominent feature, or where tho appe
tite, and digestlvo powers aro reduced to a mini
mum. As fibrinous material, it is of course
highly nutritious, and eminently adapted to all
cases where there isaelcflciency of fibrlnoiu the
blood. It is. perhaps, unparalleled in its duali
ties of lightness and digestibility, aud is, more
over, a great delicacy. In many urgent cases
of rejection of food, etc., it not only remains
where an egg otherwiso cooked would not be
tolerated, but its presence in the stomach has
been found to creato a feoling of want rather
than of superfluity, and to promoto rather than
decrease tho appetito for food.
"The production of this substance is within
tho reach of every sick room, aud is effected
with great facility. It is formed by exposing
albuminous material to tho operation or influ
ence of cold water, for n given period; and on
account of its great plenteousness we employ
tho ordinary hen's e'gg for its production. hen
tho shell is broken ami removed, and its con
tents aro immersed in cold water for twelve
hours or so, they are found to undergo acheml-co-molecular
change, and to bt coico solid aud
insoluble. This change is indicated by the
assumption, by tho transparent white of the
e'gg, oi an oimipio ami snowy wiuto appear
ance, which far surpasses that of au ordinary
boiled egg. The product, and the fluid in
which it is Immersed, must now bo submitted
to tho action of heat to the boiling point, when
tho fibrino will bo ready for use."
About Clothing.
Tho underclothing wo mean its deepest
strata iu Imninllate contiguity to ttio lioilj
has quite as much to elo with a pe rsou's com
fort, health and good looks, uud consequently
with his or her success iu life, as the outsidi
nnnarel. publio onlnion to the contrary not
withstanding. It is pertinent, here as else-
where, to looK uuue.itn tue suriaco tu lurm our
judgement of the individual.
Cloudiness wo take for granted, "l'oul
linen," and healthy skin are iiicoinpatlbles.
Palstaff himself, whose stomach was not eusllv
turned, could not abide the "rank com poll nil
of villainous smells," which he buffered m the
buck-bisket.
The first quality demanded in the articles
which come uoxt the skin is, that they bo soft
and comlortable. They must not Irritate, nor
bo chilly or lusting, fu out mii.d, ono of
tho most dreadful p nances of convent life is
that mentioned by Victor Hugo iu Ut Jiw
ahlts. He sajs that the nuns of a certain order
aro obliged to clotho themselves in harsh
woolen cloth next the skin. The Irritation is
so distressing that they aro not unfrt queutl)
thro aii by it into a fever, and break out iu au
eruption from head to foot.
The amount of clothiug should be carofull)
adjusted to the temperature. When too scant),
the skiu is chilled uud is liable to crack; when
too abundant, the excessive warmth may cause
au eruption and itchiness.
Cotton, liueii, wool uud silk are the prevail
ing materials employed. Of these cotton is
the cheapest and commonest. It is a good
conductor of heut, aud is the best adapted of
any of them for warm climates and the hot
seuson. Its fibers, however, are courser and
rougher thau thoseof line n,and there are persons
so beusltive to this slight difference that they
cannot wear it. Such must have recourse to
linen.
For cold weather, wool or silk is preferable.
Doth these have one objection. That is, that
on the slightest friction they disturb tho elec
tricity of the skiu, cause a determination of
blood" to the surface, and sometimes lead to
cutaneous eruptions. This holds good, more
particularly agaiust silk, which, in polut of
texture, is much more agreeable than even the
finest wool, and is also a worse couductor of
heat. The latter is an advantage iu winter.
Health or Ciuldbkn A Fkw Bulks. Both
over-feeding and under-feeding produce scrofula
and consumption.
The spoiled aud petted child is injured both
in health and temper.
Avoid seasoned dishes, fried and salted
meats, pastry, uncooked vegetables, unripe
fruits, wines nnd rich cakes.
Insist on thorough chowlng, or mastication.
Never tempt the appetite when dlsiucllued.
Vary the food from day to day, but avoid
variety at oue meal.
Aulunl food should be tender, aud eaten
with a little salt, vegetables, and bread.
Take care that the child's food is well cooked.
Olve no new bread.
Sweetmeats aud confections aro only to b
giveu to childron iu a very sparing manner, if
given at all. Never pamper or reward with
eatables.
AnocT CitiLPnKV. Dress children warmly,
woo'en tlanncl next their person during the
wholo year. By every consideration, protect
the extremities well. It is au iguoraut barba
rism that allows n child to have bare arms, legs
and feet, even in summer. The circulation
should be invited to tho extremities; warmth
eloes that; cold repels it. It is at the hands
and feet we begin to dlo. Those who have
cold hauds and feet are uover well. Plenty of
warmth, plenty of substantial food and ripe
fruits, and plenty of joyous out-door exercise,
would save millions of children annually.
Isouowino Tok-Nail. In bad cases the fol
lowing courso is recommeuded tn surgeons aud
others: It a small, thin, flat pleco of silver
plate bo bout at oue edge iuto a slight deep
groove, and, after the toe has been poulticed
tweuty-four hours, slipped beneath the enlge of
tho nail, so as to protect the flesh from its pres
sure, and the rest of the thin plate bent round
tho side aud frout of tho toe, be ing kept iu po
sition with a small portiou of resin plaster
passed round tho toe, a speedy and almost
painless euro will take place, and the patient,
after the first day, has tho additional advantage
of being able to walk.
Plants in Booms. The reason why plants
fade so soon, is because duo atttentlon is not
mid to them. The moro supplying with water
(snot sufficient. The leaves should bo kept
perfectly clean. "If as much washing were
bestowed, iu Loudon," says Dr. Lindley, "upon
a pot-plant as upon a lap-dog, tho ono would
remalu in as good condition as the other. The
reasons are obvious. Plants breathe by their
leaves; sud if their surface is clogged by dirt
of whatever kind, their breathing is imped on
or prevented. Plants perspire by the ir haves;
ami dirt prevents their perspiration. Plants
feed by their leaves; and dirt prevents their
feeding. So that breathing, perspiration, and
food, are fatally interrupted by the accumula
tion of foreign matter upon leaves. Lot any
one, after reading this, cast au eye upon the
state of plants iu sitting-rooms, or well-kept
pr enhouses; let him draw a white haudker
shlof over tho surface of such plants, or a
I ill re of smooth white leather, if fio desires to
;now how far they are from being as clean as
their nature roquirrs."
How tukt Cook Bkans it Maink. I wish
sonio of your readers who stew beans would
try tho following receipt for baking them. This
is tho way the down-east lumbermen conk
them, who eat them twice a day for four or five
months each year: Take ono quart of beans;
first soak, if pen beans, until they aro swelled
full; it will tako ovor night certain; If yellow
eves, pir-boll until the skins crack open when
blown au with tho breath; drain off tho water,
put about two-thirds of tho beans iu the pot;
put in about ono nnd one-half jvounds of salt
fat pork, then the rest of tho beans; bako not
less than twelve hours, first covering the beans
with hot water.
Theso aro genuino Yankee pork and beans.
The way they are cooked in tho woods is this:
A hole is dug at tho font of the tire, filled with
hot coils, the beau pot put in, filled around
with coals aud covered with hot ashes, where
it remains from 3 p. m. until breakfast the fol
lowing morning about fourteen or fifteen
hours. There aro probably moro beans eaten
In Maine than In tho whole State of New York.
Sew l'ork World.
DinrtrnoNs ron Caiipkts. Carpels should bo
taken up uud shaken thoroughly, if iu constant
use, as often as three or four tunes in a iar,
us the dirt that collects underneath them wears
them out very fast. Straw kept under carpets
will make them wear lunch longer, as the dirt
will sift through, aud keen it from grinding
out. Carpets should be taken up us olten as
oucu n year, even if not much used, as the ro is
danger of moths getting into them. If there
is any appearance of mollis in carpets whin
they are taken up, sprinkle tobaoco or black
pepper on the lloor bi fore the carpets are put
down, and let it remain after tiioy are laid
down. When tho dust is well shaken out of
carpots, if the r urn any grease spots on them,
