HOWION <L IS GOT.
In the 'Dopper Cliff Mine, near
Sudbury,'Ontario, it is said, more
nickel is being produced than the
entire market of the world calla for,
at current prices.

As fest as the .nickel end copper -
bearing rack is 'hoisted out It is
broken up and (piled upon long beds,
or ricks, of pine -wood, to be `mein•
ed, or roasted, for the purpose of
driving out the •eulphus which it
contains.
The roasting ,process is of the
nature of lime -kilning, or charcoal
burning. Each ;great bed of ore
requires from one to two menthe to
roast.
When roasted, the rock goes to
the principal smelter, a powerful
blast furnace, "jacketed"—in min-
ing phrase—with running water, to
enable it to sustain the great heat
requisite to reduce the crude, obdur-
ate mio.eral to fluidity.
The dross of the molten mass is
first allowed to flow off, and after-
ward the nearly pure nickel and.
copper, blended together in an al-
loy, called the "mat,'" or matte, is
drawn off at the base of the furnace
vat into barrow-pots'
and wheeled
away, still liquid and fiery hot, to
cool in the yard of the smelter.
The mat contains about seventy per
cent. of nickel, the remaining thirty
per cent. being mainly copper. '
When cool, the conical pot -loaves
of mat can easily be cracked in
pieces by means of heavy hammers.
The fragments are then packed in
parcels and shipped to Swansea in
Wales and to Germany, whore the
two constituent metals are separat-
ed and refined by secret processes
which are very jealously guarded by
the manufacturers.
do jealously is the secret kept
that no one in A,merioa has yet been.
able to learn the process, although
one young metallurgist spent three
years in Swansea, working as a
common laborer in the refining fac-
tories, in order to procure it.
At present there are produced
daily at the Copper Cliff Mine about
ninety pot•loavee of mitt, each
weighing near four hundred and
fifty pounds, an output which yields
an aggregate of more than four
thousand tons of nickel a year.
KEEP A SORAP-BOOK.

There is a gentleman tiro has
kept scrap -books since ho was eight
years old. He is now forty and
has been arranging them in vol-
umes, with an index in the back of
each one. You would hardly think
flint the earlier would be of much
use to him, but they are. He ofteu
amneee himselfas he reads them ;
for he sees how little he knew when
he was small, and also finds a little
that he still thinks valuable. Be-
sides, his children are n1n0h inter-
ested to see what their father had
collected and pasted in books. The
r useful older he grows too more l the u
books become.
He can go to his hooks and in a
very few minutes get 'information

the civil war, the Crimean war, the
Italian war, the overtk:row of Louis
Napoleon, and many other things,

papers at the time the event happen-
ed.
His scrap -book often contains
many funny things, which provoke
a smile and often a merry laugh as
be reads them to his family in the
long winter evening. The children
would rather hear him road from
his scrap -books than from the new-

The objection against making lead

Jerome Bolvin went the other day
to cut some timber, into some pine
wood,, where the previous evening
lie had heard several times the,
omin,m, growling 01 a bear. For
getting all this, ire walked on in
peace, with no other weapon bat his
axe, with which he now and again
blazed a mark on the trees ou hie
way. All at once he heard a long,
loudrowl. • This ' at first
g didn't
alarm him, and he cintinued on his
way, but the bear coming nearer, as
evidenced by the cracking of the
brush, he decided to return. Before
he had got many steps au enormous
elle bear appeared in his path, aboat
ten paces from him, rushing upou
him, and extending its claws and
horrible fang+. Flight was impos-
sible ; he did not know what to do,
but made, up hie mind to fight for
life. The bear continued to advance,
and just as the elaw struck him
Bolvin let out with his axe for dear
life. When the shook hail passed
away he looped around and was glad
to see that his oppoueut was down,
sufferiug from au apparently mortal
wound. Jost as he raised his ase
to despatch his foe elm uttered a
plaintiff cry, rind before theoaxe could
be let down Bolvin founjl himself
attacked by two young cabs. The
odds were great, but the courage of
despair added to his strength, and
he eventually, after a desperate
etruggleonanaged to overpower his
assailants. Then he despatched the
mother, and proceeded, as fast as his
wounds. would allow him, to his
home. A. doctor was speedily sum
monad and gave him relief, but it
is feared that, as Bolvin has only
recently recovered from a long ill
nese, his wounds may prove fatal.
