So too of these, from a technical jwint of
view, seem retrogreas tonal. It luw been
found that the rich color effects in glass
in the middle ages are largely due to the
imperfections in the material Its lack
cf homogeneousneas, iut unequal thick
nesa, and uneven surfaces contribute
kirgelr to its beauty. The modem pro
duct is too uniform to 1 brilliant: it
transmits the light w ith too great regu
larity. Intentional iniierfections are,
therefore, introduced Into the process;
and the products, in consequence, are
much more satisfactory to the artist.
Thia work of individualizing the product
has now been so far systematized that
several special brands of art glass are
recognized in the markets.
Tho so called antiuue glass, in both
white and colors, is made precisely like
me ordinary sheet window glass, except
that the surface of the glass is made full
of minute blow holes, which produce
almost an aventiirine effect, and add
greatly to its brilliancy. In the cathe
dral glass the surface ia rendered wavy
and uneven, so that the transmtasion of
light shall be correspondingly irregular.
In the flash glass ordinary sheets are
covered with a thin plating of colored
glass, a process which permits a very
delicate color tone, and materially do
crs the expense, where a costly glass,
euch aa ruby, is needed to give the color,

A suggestive tact connected with the
new army register is that it shows no
fewer than ninety -six first lieutenants on
the active list who liave service in the
civil war U) their credit. The rank and
pay of a lirst lieutenant are not an enor
mous remuneration for the length and
value of the service which some of these
ollieers have rendered. The retired list
shows also thirty-eight lirst lieutenants
who have seen war service, and while the
causes of retirement have been various,
yet they include some compulsory retire
ments for age. Oniy a year or two ago
occurred the retirement of a lirst lieuten

ono of tho guests, who was familiar
with Chinese fare, hint the nature of
tho dish, and I preferred to l so im

that No. 9 was too rich for mo, and
walled for tho next course, which
looked quite templing. I took a piece
of white meat, when my Chinese host
remarked: "Why you no go down in

that there must lie some delicacy
"down iwlow," and, after a blind flsh
with my chop sticks, got a grip on

looked suspicious. I had decided
not to tackle It. even before

next course was the best of the din

I will not vouch for the correctness ol
the name of No. 14. but It looked sus
picious, und my friend assured mo that
it was genuine dog, but, as 1 was not
very old. and had not yet acquired the
vices of experienced dogs, he thought
I might oat it But I was afraid the

But scorched turtle was first class and
received a fair share of our attention.
Eighteen was fairly good, but slight
ly tough. Probably an old drako was
tho victim. I now made fair progress
till 1 got to 21, when I remembered
my experience with the entire cltickon,
and. therefore, did not investigate the
dish. We at last got to 28, which
looked nuissy and hard to go. But
28 was in the nature of a surprise.
Tho biscuits seemed well mode, but
when a fellow got to the center he was
fairly ready to yell and call for lee. In
the center of each is a small piece ol
strong pepper, and an unsuspecting
foreigner generally manages to get the
full benefit of this morsel. Tho host
