It was at Paohuca, Mexico, that the patio system of separating sil- ver had its origin. This system is still followed extensively at the sil- ver mines‘throu‘ghout Mexico. The ore is crushed and worked down to a. state of puddle. It is then spread out to a, depth of two or three feet :over the paved floor of the court- yard, or patio. To this mass sul- phate of copper is added in powder, labout fifteen pounds of sulphate to 3,000 pounds of puddle. This is ftrodden into the puddle by horses. g‘Several gangs of old, worn-out ihonses or mules, about twelve in a :gang, are seen in various parts of the patio, being driven round in Circles to tread in the sulphate. 1 On the next day 6 per cent. of common salt is added and in two 'more days 100 per cent. of pure ,quicksilver, or as much as the assay Lof the ore shows. is required. This mass is then trodden up by horses for fifteen days. It is then Wheeled to a, large tank through which pass- es 3. rapid stream of water. This iwashes away the clay, leaving the silver and quicksilver. This besi- duu'm is poured into coneâ€"shaped canvas bags through which most of the quicksilver runs out, and what remains with the silver is passed off with the vapor by means of heated retorts. None of the quicksilver is test, and even the vapor is brought (by cold water to its original state and used again and again. The quicksilver soon rots the hoofs of‘ the horses and the mules, but the Mexicans themselves do not seem to be much the worse for it, even though they wade around in the puddle for days at a, time.

It was because La, Belle Ferrou- niere had a. burn exactly in the middle of her forehead that she wore over the cicatrix the charming jewel held by a. fine thread that is called a Ferronniere to this day. In the reign of Henry II. some princesses who suffered from goitre hid the blemish beneath their highâ€" flut-ed ruff-s and disguised the crookâ€" edness of their shoulders under the puffed sleeve. Formerly, under the Empire, or when there was a king on the throne of France, the sov‘ereign’s wishes had a distinct influence on the tendency of fashion. The court liked to copy the smallest detail or whim of his majesty or of the prin- cesses who surrounded him. For example, trains owe their origin to the fact that the daughters of Louis IX. had abnormally large feet. Anne of Austria, were short sleeves because of her beautiful arms; Louis XIV. brought the Wig into fashion because; he was afflicted with a wen on his head.

There was no reference to tea, as is often supposed, nor was the word the result of a. stuttering attempt at the word “total”; for Turner was not a. stammerer. He was a, ready coiner of words upon any emergency, and often p-erpetreted what .inen Irishman would be callâ€" ed “bull-s.” In one of his impasâ€" sioned addresses on temperance, he said: “We will 'go with our taxes on our sheuvldere and plow up the great deep; and then the ship of temperance shall sail garllantly over the land.” “Oh, yes, but I don’t recommend it.” Out-side of Preston, probably not one person in a. thousand knows how the word “teetotal” came into popular use. It was, ‘to all intents and purposes, deliberately invented by “Dicky” Turner, who, at a meeting held in the Old Cockpit, declaimed vehemently against the arguments of the moderate drinkâ€" ers, and insisted upon bot/31 absti- nence. "I’ll have nowt to doe wi’ this moderation botheretion pledge,” he said. “I’ll be reet down out-an’out tee-tee-toml for ever and ever.” No death is more certain than the end that comes to every offender treated by Putnam’s Corn Extractor.
