That is what I used to believe, before I
knew what it was to be a woman; I don’t
believe it now, I wish I did, for then I
could prophesy a happy, sudden end to
the trials and tribulations of more than
one brave little body I know.
I would say this: “Never mind little

B«sk aad Job Work, of all kinds,
PROMPTLY AND NEATLY EXECUTED
AT THIS OFFICE.
The Eskimo aad His Religion.
The religion of the Eskimo is, of all
enrioua systems of theology, the most
eurioua. Nevertheless they are not poly
theists, demonworshippers, nor even idol-
etors, in the common acceptation of that
term. They believe in one supremo dei
ty, whom they call Toongarsoon; likewise
• devil, who is one of the feminine gen
der, bnt whoso proper name (if she has
one) I could never ascertain. Their god
is supposed to reside iu a handsome stone
dwelling, situated somewhere in the sea.
His occupation, according to their no
tion, is a very benevolent one; for he is
said to keep large herds of seals, sea
horses, etc., for the purpose of provid
ing entertainment for the souls of good
men, which are transported immediately
after death to the apartments assigned to
them in tho marine palace where his god-
ship resides. A large apartment of this
place is said to be fitted up with cooking
apparatus, on the most extensive scale;
pots and kettles of snch dimensions that
walruses, sea unicorns, seals, etc., in
large numbers are boiled or baked there
in every day, to furnish a perpetual ban
quet for the happy spirits of deceased
Esquimaux hunters, or such of them as
behaved themselves with tolerable pro
priety while in the flesh. Hence it will
appear that the Esquimaux heaven con
sists of a never ending feast of fat things,
an eternity of well cooked walrus meat
and seal’s blubber.
The devil (a female one, remember) is
supposed to be an unworthy sister of the
divine, Toongarsoon. She resides at
some distance from her brother’s palace,
on an island, where game of all kinds is
very scarce; where she takes charge of
deceased sinners, who, under her domes
tic management, fare worse, if possible,
than some of the inmates of some of the
cheap boarding houses in New York. In
fact, these delinquent spirits suffer the
pangs of starvation, and their cries and
shrieks of agony are often heard above
the howling of the Arctic gales and the
angry war of the mountain torrents.—
Prof. So un tag'h Narrative, etc,
Scenes Along the XVile.
We have been long away from Cairo,
with its busy streets and scenes so like
to those of tho “Arabian Nights,” and now
for weeks have been sailing along the
strange river Nile.
How I should like to have you all with
me—and what a fleet it would be! We
should need such a number of Giabbeahs
(pleasure-boasts) as never sailed on this
river before, and I think tho Arab child
ren. in their amazement, would forget
their constitutional cry of “backsheesh,"
with which they ever salute the trave
ler.
There are many scenes on the river-
bank that would attract your attention
and fill you with surprise. All day, but
more especially morning and evening,
long files of women, in their dark blue
robes, come to the river's brink to fill
the largo ballast jars, so called from the
village where they are made. After
little gossip and merry laughter, they
help one another to raise the vessel to
the top of the head, where it is placed on
a hollow pad, and so they go back to their
homes, up hill and down, perhaps a disv
tance of half-a-mile or more, without ever
touching the jar with their hands. It is
a feat which surprises the traveler, and
ean only be accomplished by daily prac
tice.
Here and there may be seen a buffalo,
black, ugly iu appearance, apparently
sullen and surly, but in reality gentle
and obedient ta the naked little boy on
his back.
Sometimes, in the warm afternoon, I
sit and watch the water-fowl and listen
to their varied cries ; huge pelicans flap
juug their immense wings fur overhead ;
graceful cranes stalking over the fiats ;
herons, storks, and tho whole race of
ducks in myraids, swarming on every
sand-bank ; and, very rarely, the beautiful
red flamingo, which we have to observe
through the double glass, as it is too shy
to come near our boat.
Occasionally we see camels looming in
the background, growling bideonsly as
they are forced to kneel to receive their
burdens.
It was a 6trange sight—that of a vast
number of workmen, as we saw them go
ing to their labor on the railroad which
is being built from Cairo up the Nile.
Each man had a palm-leaf basket, into
which he scraped up the dirt with his
hands, and then poising it on his
earned it to its place of destination. It
is said that somebody once imported
some wheel barrows for the benefit of
these poor fellows ; but, some timo after,
coming to see how the new improvement
worked, he fonnd them filling toe wheel
barrows and putting upon their beads,
where they carried them jnst as they did
the backets, I don’t say this is true, bnt
it does show the lack of keen wit in these
people, and the way they cling to old cus
toms ; and I believe if somebody should
give one of them a wheel-barrow, he
would use it in just that senseless way.
From U A letter from' Egypt” by Sarah
Ksables Hunt, in St. Nicholas for Octo-
you can
just turn coward—break your heart on
the sly and go straight to glory.”
But suppose I should dare say this to
the pale-faced, over worked wife and
mother around the corner? Why, she
would drive me out of tho house * for a
pussy cat! Old care may knock awav
with all his might; at every blow of his
hammer the gold of her heart will give
out a full true ring. That woman's back
may break—I am pretty sure it will some
day—but her heart, never! It is as sweet
and sound at the core as the sweetest and
soundest of rosyscheeked apples!
I know another woman, a widow and
childless.
She stands alone, a watcher over
graves. God has broken her tendrils and
felled her oak; and yet the loving kindness
of this lonely woman makes many a bar
ren life burst into blossom and bloom
like Aaron's almond rod; her hands are
fairly fragrant with golden deeds.
The shadows of her graves fall heavy,
very, very heavy, across her path some
times; but if she sits in the shadow, she
sings of the sunlight, and do you think
her heart is broken* If so, blessed be the
pieces! The smallest is more precious
than the crown jewel of a qneen.
Fool a woman in love, and before you
get half thiough making a pocket memo
randum of the sighs she sighed, and tho
tears she shed over the loss of your pre
cious self, you will hear her singing and
chirping away in a snug little nest with
a tenderer and more constant mate than
you could ever have been to her.
Take away health and give her sick
noss; she will say, “God’s will bo done,”
and bear it so sweetly and so patiently
that her sick bed becomes the magnet
that draws her family closer together and
makes her room the brightest in the
house—the room where tho children
come with their playthings, and the older
ones with their vexations and doubts.
She gives a smile and a tendor glance of
approval to one, a cheery bit of advice or
a soothing word to another, and her
heart to all.
Take away riches and give her poverty;
she will accept it with a gracious cour
tesy—look up in your face with hersweet
soft eyes, and say, “never mind, dear; if
we can’t get a whole loaf, wo can be hap
py on a half’—step out of her silk dress
and look altogether so bewitchingly sweet
and simple and hopeful in her cotton
print and house-keeper's apron, that you
are ready to declare she was cut out—
from the crown of her bright, quick little
head to the sole of her springy little foot
—for a poor man's wife.
Hunt her down with tho blood bounds
of slander, envy, malic and all unchari
tableness, and when you think they have
caught her, and stop your ears to shut
ont the death cry, she turns at bay, draws
up her slender figure to its full* height,
and faces the whole pack with such a de
liciously darling little laugh that you
shout bravo! in spite of yourself.
No, no, a woman’s heart was not made
to bo broken. It was made to bear not
break; to take love and to give it; to com
fort and to be comforted, to warm, to
brighten and to bless. To bo as tendor
as the coo of a dove—as fresh and breezy
as the wild rose of May, and as pure and
clear as the dew drop that sparkles on
it
Of course there are a kind, wearing the
long rippling robes of a woman, who lan
guish and faint, and would break a dozen
hearts (if they had room in their narrow,
selfish little bosoms to carry so many).
And another kind who have no hearts to
break. But these are not women—they
are only females; or amatuer women at
best. Believe me, there is nothing God
has made that is good and true, so hard to
break as the gentle, faithful heart of a
womanly woman; unless it be the big,
staunch heart of a manly man.—N. O.

Xavier Proulx, a gentleman now in the
prime of life, came from his home in
Canada, twenty-eight years ago, with oniy
his two hands, his honest heart and in
dustrious frugal habits as stock in trade,
to seek his fortune among the people of meet., but am io cultivate, and uod^ILIZ^
A>ew J^ngland. He let himself as a com- c *• and 4, and »old in parcekufoaeBcrc
mon farm hand to Judge Lewis Dexter,
of Lime Rock, R. I. By close applica
tion to his business, by making himself
indispensable to his employer, he gradu
ally received more responsible positions
aad better pay. until he found himself at
the head of one of the most valuable
farms in the State, at an annual salary of
a thousand dollars. He saved his earn
ings and invested them where they would
yield a fair interest. He never hired a
horse and carnage in his life, and never
left his employer when his presence was
needed at the farm.
Last year tho Judge decided to sell his
place, and wished Mr. Proulx to bo the
purchaser. A fifteen thousand dollar
farm is quite a purchase for a farm laborer
to make, but Mr. Proulx found he had
already accumulated sufficient with which
to make the purchase and pay the cash
down for the whole, besides stocking and
equipping it in the best manner. He had
previously purchased a small farm of
some 150 acres, which, with this pur
chase, gives him an estate of about a
square mile.
On the Judge’s farm are valuable and
expensive orchards, from which will be
sold the present year 300 bushels of pears
of the best varieties, and over 1000 bush
els of choice apples.
Mr. Pronlx places a high estimate on
the value of a good education for his sons
and daughters, and has given them liber
al advantages in this direction, by send
ing them to the best schools in his adopt
ed State and in Canada. One of his
sons is now rewarding him for his efforts,
by joining in the management of the
home farm, in which he takes a deep in
terest
Examples like the above are worthy of
imitation, and the lesson taught may be

If the eating of that unblest apple
brought death into the world and all
our woes, surely among tho last, and by
no means the least of them, may be clas
sed the worries Eve inflicted on her hap
less daughters when, woaving her fig
leaf garland, she became tho inventor of
dress.
It cannot be denied that to all women
of the present day, save to those wide
extremes of the feminine social scale,
those who can afford to pay unlimited
prices, and those who caro nothing for
clothes at all save as means of warmth
and shelter, the question of dress has
become an exceedingly worrying and per
plexing one. The extreme elaboration
prescribed by the prevailing mode, the
variety of styles, the fact that a separate
toilet is required for almost every differ
ent occasion, combine to render our gar
ments a burden and a brother.
Let us go back to a period no further
distant than twenty years, and let U6
learn through what chanco our wardrobes
passed in altering from solidity to
show, from comfort to stylishness. In
those not very far off days, ladies wore
plain, heavy silks, with perfectly untrim
med skirts and corsages a basques, the
latter simply bordered with lace, or pas
sementerie, or fringe. A rich black silk,
thus made, was a handsome street cos
tume as well as indoor dress, only roquii
ing the addition of a silk mantle or lace
shawl in the spring, or a velvet cloak or
India shawl in winter, to fit it for prome
node uses. Lighter and thinner silks, as
well as the more delicate tissues worn in
summer, had toree flounces, put on
straight around the skirt, and edged eith
er with a light fringe or ribbon, or with
the edge simply pinked. Evening dres
ses, of course, presented a variety in the
way of trimmings and materials, but a
young girl was considered to be elegantly
attired in a three-flounced glace silk,
while her mother was richly arrayed in a
heavy moire antique, the sleeves and top
of the low-necked corsage bordered with
costly laces, and the skirt perfectly plain.
Contrast snch dresses with the toilets
nowadays—the contrasting colors, the
masses of trimmings, the flounces and
ruffles, box-plaited, gathered, rose-quilled,
reversed, the bows and ends, the over
skirts and underskirts, and trains, all
costing weeks of time, unending labor,
and hundreds of dollars.—The Galaxy
for October.
Snnday night a Detroit policeman,
passing a certain house about ten o’clock,
saw a man drop from a window, and
heard smothered cries inside. He seized
toe man for a burglar, but soon found
that he had the owner of the house in his
dutches. “Well," said the officer, “it
looks suspicious to see you drop out of a
window that way.” “\*ell," replied the
man, heaving a sigh, “when the old wo
man gets her dander np, I ain’t partieu-

•P
Chinese Domestic life,
They have a large screen before the
door-way, which gives privacy sufficiently
for their need. The window sashes are
closed either by a sort of jalousie or tl i t
matting. They do not surround their
domesticities with the same mystery and
secret precautions with which we envel
op these proceedings in Europe. Human
nature, they argue, has to sleep, and here
is the mat upon which it stretches itself.
Why conceal it ? It also wants to eat,
and it satisfies its appetite no matter how
many eyes are gazing. Tell a Chinese
cook yon are hungry, and he will imme
diately fetch his fire, his cooking utensils,
his provisions, and cook under your very
i ose. He has no idea of concealing his
operations in some far-away back region,
yclept kitchen. He squats down any
where, makes a fire on or in anything ;
a basin, dish, pan, or pot—there' is no
limit to his invention. He will cook in
the middle of the street, or in the centre
of his guests in a restaurant. Upon one
occasion, when on board a junk, I obser
ved a man cooking his own and his
neighbor's food for days together in a
tub, and an earthenware sancer containing
the charcoal. Wonderfnl creatures they
are, these despised Chinese, with a deft
ness of finger and ingenuity and patience
unsurpassed by any nation under the
sun!—Temple- Bar.

The question ia almost daily asked, “What

they remove the cause of disease, and the
patient recovers his health. They are tha
great blood purifier and a life-giving prin

Of the system. Never before in the history
of the world has a medicine been com
