A Blue Glass Experiment.

Mr. IJlimley read about blue-glass until lie became converted to the doeirine. Having a hoy baby about, three months old, who lias been somewhat puny and lias given evidence of weak lungs, he had one window of his house paned with blue-gtass, and exposed him to the sun’s rays for an hour or two for several da} s. The baby was left under the blue window for three hours, at the conclusion ot which lime he got tip and went down stairs, declaring that lie'had enough of that “dog-goned foolishness.” He threw his off foot into Mr. dimity's stomach, and knocked the lower portion ol Mrs. diinloy’s chin off with his right ii>L As. Mr. Biiinley lay under the w.ashstntid* trying to decide whether lie had been struck by lightniiig or was in th« Ashtabula disaster, young Biiinley set. up such a yell that a neighbor next door, tviio has been howling for war ever since the Bth of November, went down into bis eeWnr and hid under an. empty flour barrel, under the impression that, a general insurrection had broken out. As soon as Mr. dimlev recovered sufficiently, lie procured a hammer aup smashed every pane of blue-glass he could find. They now keep young Biiinley gagged and chained to. an anvil, — id.
