MAKING PORCELAIN. The Most Exciting and Romantic Trade In the World. The maker of porcelain and pottery has decidedly the most exciting and rotrade in the world. The great factories of Sevres and Dresden, were founded by Bernard Palissy. This man invented white enamel, but it took him sixteen years to make the invention-sixteen years of hunger, misery and persecution, which

culminated in the episode, used in. H. A. Jones' play of "The Middleman," wherein Palissy maintained his furnace fire by burning all the furniture in his house and finally opened the furnace door to find within the glaze which he had sought throughout the best years of his life. Bottgher invented hard porcelain. He was an alchemist, and one day, chancing to discover that his powdered wig was unusually heavy, he inquired the cause and found that the weight was due to the kaolin with which the wig was powdered. This kaolin was the substance for lack of which Bottinvestigations had for years failed. When Elers opened a porcelain fac tory at Burslem he employed none but the most stupid and illiterate workmen, so that his secret processes might not become known. But Samuel Astbury resolved to learn the Elers method, and, affecting ignorance and stupidity, he got a place in the factory, mastered all of Elers' secrets and eventually opened a plant of his own, wherein he duplicatin every detail the work of Elers. Exchange. A Worm That Chews Iron. Some years ago the engineers emon the railway at Hagan, in Germany, were puzzled by accidents which always occurred at the same place. The government sent a com mission to the spot. It was not, how ever, until six months had elapsed that the surface of the rails appeared to be corroded as if by acid to the extent of over a hundred yards. The rail was taken up and broken, when it was found to be literally honeycombed by a thin, threadlike gray worm. The worm was about two centimeters in length and about the size of a sma knitting needle. On the head are two little sacs, or glands, filled with a most powerful corrosive secretion, which is ejected every ten minutes when the insect is lying undisturbed. This liquid when squirted upon iron renders that metal soft and spongy and of the color of rust, when it is easily and greedily eaten by the little insect.-London EnVelocity of Meteorites. It is no wonder that stones which fall from the regions of space are fired by the impact when they strike our atmosAstronomers estimate that they fall with a velocity of at least 60,000 yards per second. This extraordinary speed is best understood by comparing it with a ball from a modern cannon, which never travels with a speed greatthan 600 yards per second. Still In the Nobility.
