NEW IMPROVED PATENT EIGHT-FLARCE FIRE-PROOF SAFE.

o-— T¥XHE only Kight-Flarge "Safe in the world, and containing more improvements than ANY

SAFE made, such as ;

lst. THE PATENT INSIDE POLT WORK, which is placing the bolt work with the whole of the filling (six inches) between it and the outside, that is, as far from the fire and thief as it can be.

2and. THE PATENT HINGED CAP—the back plate of the door being on hinges, enabling the owner, by turning a thumbscrew, to have easy access to the lock and boit- work. He can thus easily change the lock, clean, oil, and keep the bolt-work in good order.

8rd. IRON INSIUVE LINING, stronger than wood, and which retains the moisture in the filling for an indcfinite time. Wood is thicker and weaker, and alter a few years absorbs the moisture and “requires filling over again.”

4th, FOUR-WHKEL COMBINATION LOCKS, the simplest, strongest, most efficient and easiest to change of any in use.

5th. SOLID ANGLE IRON FRONTS, BACKS AND CORNERS, which prevents warping or injury to safe from faliing, or falling walls or timbers.

6th, EIGHT FLANGES—the most important improvement ever made in fire-proof safes, providing eight laps, thus preventing the passage ot heat, it having to pss over twelve inches, no injury arises {rom this source, as in other safes containing one, two or three flanges.

THESE SAFES have stood the test of years, and the greatest fires cn this continent, and have the CHAMPION REC ORD im the Boston, Chicago and Haverh ili Fires.

ADAM BEDE.

CHAPTER L.

THE YORKSHOP.

the Egyptian sorcerer undertakes to reveal to any chance comer far-reaching visions of the past. This is what I undertake to do for you, reader. With this drop of ink at the end of my pen Iwill show you the roomy workshop of Mr. Jonathan Burge, carpenter and builder, in the village of Havyslope, as it appeared on the eighteenth of June, in the year of .our Lord 1799.

The afternoon sun was warm on the five workmen there, busy upon dors end win- dow-frames and wainscoting. A scent of pine wood from a tent-like pile of planks outside the open door mingled itself with the scent of the elder-bushes which were spreading their summer snow close to the open window opposite ; the slanting sun- beams shone through the transparent ehav- ings that tlew before the steady plaie, and lit up the tine grain of the oak panneling which stood propped against the wall. Oa a heap of those soft shavings a rongh gray shepherd-dog had made himself a pleasant bed, and was lying with his nose between his fore-paws, occasionally wrinkling his brows to cast a glance at the tallest of the five workmen, who was carving a shield in the centre of a wooden mantlepiece. [t was to this workman that the strong bary- tone belonged which was heard above the sound of plane and hammer, singing,

** Awake my soul and with the sun The daily stage of duty run ; Shake off dull sloth .

Here scme measurenent was to be taken which required more concentrated atten- tion, and the sonorous voice subsided intoa low whistle; but it presently broke out again with renewed vigor,

‘* Let all thy converse be sincere,

Thy conscience as the noonday clear.”

Such a voice could only come from a broad

chest, and the broad broad chest belonged

to a large-boned, muscular man, nearly six

feet high, with a back so flat and a head so

well poised that when he drew himself up

to take a more distant survey of his work

he had the air of a suldier standing at ease.

The sleeve rolied up above the elbow

showed an arm that was Ikely to wit: the

prize for feats of strength; yet the long,

supple hand, with its. broad finger tips,

looked ready for works of skill In his tell

stalwartness Adam Bede was a S:xon, and

justified his name ; but the jet-black hai,

made the more noticeable by its contrast

with the light paper cap, and the keen

glance of the dark eyes tliat shone from

under strongly-marked, prominent. and

mobile eyebrows, indicated a mixture of

Celtic bieod. The face was large and

roighly hewn, and when in repose had no | other beauty then such as belongs to an; expression of good-humored, honest mtelli-

gence.

{t is clear at a glance that the next work-

man is Adam’s brother. He is nearly as | tall; he has the same type of features, the; same hue of hair and complexion; but the | strength of the family likeness seems only

to render conspicuous the remarkable dif-

fercnce of expression both in form and face.

Seth’s broad shoulders have a slight stoop;

his eyes are gray; his eyebrows have less prominence and more repose than his bro-

ther’s; and his glance, instead of being

keen, is confiding and benignant. He has thrown off his paper cap, and you see that his hair is not thick and wavy, allowing you to discern the exact contour of a coronal arch that predominates very decidedly over the brow.

The idle tramps always felt sure they could get a copper froin Seth, chey scarcely ever spoke to Adam.

The concert of the tools and Adain’s voice was at last broken by Seth, who, lifting the door at which he had been work- ing intently, placed it against the wall, and sald

‘There ! anyhow.’

The workmen all looked up; Jim Salt, a burly red-haired man, known as Sandy Jim, paused from his planing, and Adam said to Seth, with a sharp glance of surprise ;

‘What! dost think thee’st finished the door ?’

‘Ay, sure,’ said Seth, with answering surprise, ‘ what's awanting to’t ?

A loud roar of laughter from the other three workmen made Seth look round con- fusedly. Adam did not join in the laugh- ter, but there was a slight smile on his face as he said, in a gentler tone than before :

‘ Why, thee’st forgot the panels.’

The laughter burst out afresh as Seth clapped his hands to his head, and colored over brow and crown.

* Hooray | shouted a small, lithe fellow, called Wiry Ben, running forward and seiz- ing the door. ‘ We'll hang up th’ door at farend o’ th’ shop an’ write on’t, ‘Seth Bede, the Methody, his work.’ Here, Jim, lend’s hould o’ th’ red-pot.’

‘Nonsense |’ said Adam. ‘ Let it alone, Ben Cranage. You'll maphap be making such a slip yourself some day; you'll laugh o’ th’ other side of your mouth then.’

‘Catch me atit, Adam. I'll be a good while afore my head’s full o’ th’ Methudies,’ said Ben,

‘ Nay, but it’s often full o drink, and that’s worse.’

Ben, however, had now got the ‘ red-pot’

I've finished my door to-day,

his inscription; making, by way of prelimi- nary, an imaginary S in the air. ‘Let it alone, will you” Adam called

Ben, and seizing his right sh -uloer. italone, Gr Ill shake the soul out o’ your body.’

Ben shook in Adam’s iron grasp, but, like # plucky small man as he was, |e didn’t mean to give in. With his left itand he ‘snatched the brush from his powerless ri. hr, and made a movemen! a: if he would per- form the feat of writing with his left. In a moment Adam turned him round, seized

his other shtdulder, anid, tushfity hun alJng,

Wirth asingie drop of ink for a mirror, |

pinned him against the wall, Bat now Ss th spoke

‘Let be, Addy, let be. Ben will he joking. Why, he’s i’ the right to laugh at

me. Tecanna help laughing at myself.’

‘I shan’t loose him till he promises to let the door alone,’ said Ad»m.

‘Come, Ben, lad,’ said Seth, ina per suasive tone, ‘don’t let's have a quarrel aboutit. Y¥.u know Adam will have his way. You mays well try to turn a wagon ina narrow jane. Say you'll leave the door

alone, and make an ena on’s,’ | ‘1 hbinna frighted at Adam,’ said Ben, ‘but I donna mind sayin’ as I')] let alone at /yare askin’, Seth.’

| ‘Come, that’s wise of you, Ben,’ said Adam, laughing and relaxing his grasp. but Wiry Ben, having had the worst in the

|

| ;

They all returned to their work now ; bodily contest, was bent on retrieving that humiliation by a success in sarcasm.

‘Which was ye thinkin’ on, Seth,’ he

| began—‘ the pretty parson’s face or her sar- ;munt when ye forgot the panel

‘Come and hear her, Ben,’ sald Seth, good-humoredly ; ‘ she’s going to preach on ihe Green to-night ; happen ye'd get some- thing to think on yourself then, instead o’ those wicked songa ye’re so fond oa. Ye might get religion, and that ’nd be the best day’s earnings ye ever made.’

‘All i? good time for that, Seth ; I'll think about that when I’m a-gain’ to settle i’ life ; bachelors doesn’t want such heavy earnin’s. Happen L shall do the coortin and the religion both together as ye do, Seth ; but ye wouldna ha me get converted an’ chop in atween ye an’ the preity preacher, an’ carry her aff ?

‘No fear o’ that, Ben ; she’s neither for you nor for me to win, Idoubt. Only yeu come and hear her, and you won't speok lightly on her again.’

‘Well, ’m half amind t’ ha’ a lock at her to-ninght, if there isn’t good company at the Holly Bush Whbat'll she tek tor her text / Happen ye can tell me, Seth, if so be as IT shonldna come up i’ time for't Will’t be ‘What comes ye out for to see? A prophetess? Yea, I say unto yon, and more than a prophetess—a uncommon pretty youpg woman.’

‘Come, Ben,’ said Adam, rather sternly, ‘yon let the words o’ the Bible alone ; you're going tou far pow,’

Camphor is made in Japan in this way : After a tree is felled to the earth itis cut up into chips, which are laid in a tub or a Jarge iron pot partially filled with water and placed over a slow tire, Through holes in the bottom of the tub steam slowly rises, and heating the chips generates oi} and camphor. Of course, the tnd with the chips has a_ closely fitting cover. From this cover a bawhoo ripe leads to a suecession of other tubes with bamboo conneetions, and the Jast of these tubes is divided into two compart- ments, one above the other, the dividing floor being perforated with small holes to al- low the water and oil to pass to the lower compartment. The upper compartment is supplied with a straw layer, whieh catches and holds the camphor in crystal in deposit as it passes through the cooling process. The camphor is then separated from the straw, packed in wooden tubs and is ready for market, The oil is used by the navives for illuminating and other purposes.
