A curious story comes from Moscow.
A clever end beautiful girl had an in*

her hands on the occasion of her mar

marry a man whom she could not en
dure, and she had no money to take her
self out of the reach of his attentions.
So she sent for an old beggar man, to
whom she had occasionally given a few
cents, and offered him three hundred
roubles if he would stand up for the
man iage ceremony with her ana straight
way leave the town and never let her

His best time comes to him after sunset,
for he is expected to serenade, and he
does so. He does not sing, he blows the

generally makes it of two pieces of cedar,
hollowed out, and glued at the edges. It
is sometimes improved bj a snake-skin

by other ornamentation. It has from
three to seven finger-holes, generally four,

Although the bride was very young,

number of tiny tails, the ends of which
peeped forth from under the chagat of
lolacd white linen she wore on her head.
Nothing can cxce;d the ugliness or un-

merely a square piece of muslm or cotton
folded cornerwise, and tightly fastened
with a pin or tiny brooch under the chin,
with two ends ban ring down the back,
and the remaining two falling over the

in its place by tho arms. Her volumi

A Cheyenne Courtship.
The Cheyenne tribe of Indians has a
bloody record of wars with other tribes
and of collisions with United States
troops. Its remnants are now gathered
upon a large reservation in the western
part of Indian Territory. They are-a
large, athletic, well-formed race, and are
mentally superior to most other plains
Indians. A good icason for their superi-
.ority is to be found in the more carnally
\aided morality of their women.

requires the concurrent action of differ
ent nervous centers. A disturbance < *
their harmonious co-operation at out
throws ns off our balance, producing the
sensation above indicated.
One form of vertigo— a very persistenl
form—is doe to irritation of certain
nerves within the most chamber of

it from all other forms.
Another form connects itself mainly
with the eye. Of this kind is the fecl-l
ing of giddiness which some people have
when, being on a train at rot, another
train slowly passing deceives them into
the idea that it is their own train whichl
had begun to move. The giddiness oc

true sensations become confused

Under'petticoats of soft crepe, corded
zephyr and silk are trimmed with edel
weiss and machine-made Valenciennes
lace. They are exceedingly light in
weight.
A pointed puff, extending from the
top of the sleeve to the elbow, is made
of the laco or embroidery with which
the dress is trimmed. This style of
trimming sleeves is only applicable to
rich dresses.
Last year’s leaf-shaped basques at tho
backs of bodices of woolen material are
still in favor. When these are used the
bodice is trimmed with velvet or moire
antique, and two points of this fall below
the leaf points of the woclen material.
The plush combined with the new
cambrics, despite its silky appearance, is
made of cotton, and for the skirts and
acce sorics of a dress its widj stripes are
most effective iu lieu of the plain mate
rial which is supplied for the bodice and
drapery.
Summer dressing in the country is
charming this year, because delicate tints
in cotton and white wools are so much
used. It is a real pleasure to 6ee the re
turn to the straight simple skirt, because
it is such a comfort to the tired and a
welcome relief from the weight and bur
densome character of the “costume.”

Solvers of ? nperscrlptions.
The clerks in the dead letter office
show marvellous skill—an ingenuity that
is sometimes almost inspiration—i
ciphering the ignorant superscriptions
from across the sea. What would the
reader make of this on the back of a
letter:
“Me Maria Peratala
nura Fa Kamlin Ka
ute takkata ter murt
amerikaa.”
The lady to whom it was allotted read
it over to herself till well nigh distracted
and finally settled on “Mrs. Maria Pera-
tola, Nora, Hamlin county, Dakota.”
And it was duly delivered.
The word “azzilitorno’* passed through
ie alembic crimes ont “TTaz.letnn ” while
the alembic comes out “Hazleton,” while
Pitzkonty S X Ajowa.” reappears on a
clean envelope as “Essex, Page county,
Iowa.”
And here is one calculated to drive the
reconstructor into a lunatic asylum: “Gi

macaroni.
“When did you first commence eating
snakes!” asked the reporter.
“In 1858 I wa; in California among
the Indians. They ate snake j, generally
black and rattle snake >. I once tasted a
piece of the latter, which they had
cooked. I found it had a delicate flavor,
but I did not then like the idea of eating
snakes. This repugnance, I found was
only an idea, there being no reason for
it. I camj home to Franklin County,
Kentucky, in 1859. While at home I
went out in a clearing, near my father 1
house, and saw an old Irish hermit, who
had resided there many years, kill a black
laan Pok jas Amenika.”
Ought an immortal mind to tackle such
a superscription? It did, and from the
chaos came the clear designation:
“John Ahola,
Ashtabula Harbor,
Ohio.”
A letter addressed to “Churhvat jova* ,
is forwarded by these gifted epistolary |
detectives to “What Cheer, Iowa,” and j
“Wait Kolud Namerikkaa” is at once
dispatched to “White Cloud, Michigan.”
To make a successful superscription
solver must require the linguistic attain
ments of a Mczzofanti, the musical ear of
a phonograph, the cunning of a Vidocq,
the intelligence of a Supreme Court judge
and the patience of an angel.
Orators In Congress.
We may not have the equals of Pat
rick Henry, Samuel Adams, John Rut
ledge, Webster, Clay, Calhoun or Pren
tiss, but as a whole the congressional
orator of to-day is far superior to that of
the new or distant past. Verbatim re
porting has proved a great injury to con-
snake. Ho started to his cabin with it,
dragging it behind him. He laid it out
on a plank, cut off the head and threw
the body in a bed of hot ashes to skin it.
I asked him what he was going to do.
He said he was g ring to eat it; that it was
fine food, and invited me to sup with him.
I complied with his request. After skin
ning it he laid it in salt and water for a
while. He then fried it in butter and
lard, and it wai really delicious. The
more I i K ~ the more I wanted. Since
that tim't /I have had a weakness for
snake meat, especially black snakes. I
am afraid of the meat of rattlesnakes. I
often give a half dollar for a good sized
black snake, which I cook myself. Every
year I manage to get some. Since I have
been in Lexington I have not been
fortunate enough to indulge my taste as
often as I would like. Good, nice, fat
black snakes are scarce in old settled
counties like this, and I have to get them
from other places. An old mau who
lives in one of the mountain counties,
and is a trapper and hunter, and also
appreciates the delicacy, often sends me
bla:-k snake oil, which I use to fry dough
nuts in.”
At this juncture the speaker opened
little handbag, which he is in the habit
of carrying all the time, and from it took
a doughnut, fried in snake oil. Break
ing it in two, he ate half with great
gusto, proffering the other half to y—
reporter.
'‘Not any, thanks.” replied the
porter to his pressing invitation to
“try it.”

The Divisions of Time.
The natural divisions of time are the
year and the day. The week is arbitrary,
being probably derived from cons'dera-
ti.ms first suggested by the first chapter
of Gene-K The month, though origin
ally intended to be the time from one new
moon to the next, has, of necessity, de
parted from this idea, in order to make
an even number in the year. The decade
and the century are purely artificial, de
duced from oar system of numbering.
Bat the day and the year, the one de
rived from the reappearance of light and
darkness, the other measuring the round
of the seasons, are universally adopted
units of time, suggesting themselves
alike to cultured and savage, and which
we ran not think will ever be superseded.
The year is the time «f the revolution
of the earth around the sun. Its measure
is most easily obtained by the reappear
ance of the sun at the same alt tude in
the sky. Every <ms knows that it is
higher in summer than in winter. If
the circle of the earth’s equator were
extended right out from the centre of
the earth into the sky, it would cut ont
a circle there which is called the celestial
equator. Now, the sun crosses this line
in the spring northward, arriving at its'
greatest altitude in the middle of sum?
mer; thence it descends, crossing the
line southward iu the fall, and reaching
its lowest point in midwinter. The
ancients, by measuring the length of the
■’.adow cast by a vertical stick on differ-
ber value, and conducts herself with, ent days of the year, arrive 1 at
- propriety, according to the estab-
jed customs of her tribe. She is owned
oy her father, and ho may sell her in mar
riage without her consent, but she is not
without a remedy. Once wedded, she is
the property of her husband, and is
bound to all the slavishly obedient
drudgery of squaw life. The warrior,
however, who unwisely bays her against
her will, does so at a risk of losing all he
paid for her, as the Cheyenne law or di
vorce is peculiar, and provides important
limitations of her bondage. More com-
jnooly she is permitted to choose for her
self, and is apt to do so with an intelli
gent reference to questions of comforts,
supplies, and social standing.

prlsingly correct results as to the lcng.h
of the year. In 450 n. c., Democritus
asserted the year to be SG5£ days long,
which is within about eleven minutes of
the troth. Another ingenious device for
the same purpose was that of the Egyp
tian astronomers, who set up a wheel
parallel to the plane of the equator.
When the sun was in this plane, the
shadow of the sunward ride of the wheel
would bo exactly intercepted by the
other, and the interval between two such
occurrences would measure the year.
Owing to the fact that the sun does not
cross the celestial equator in the same
place each year, this year which measures
the seasons is a few minutes shorter than

gressional oratory. In the olden time
the Senators and Representatives would
listen to those who were speaking with
the attention of assemblages of trained
critics. When verbatim reports of the
debates were made and printed, those
congressional listeners were no longer to
be found. A senator or representative
who has carefully prepared himself
would, as he commenced his speech, see
his audience engaged in every other way
than listening to his accents. Some
would be in groups chatting, others
would be reading newspapers or books,
and the rest inditing epistles or directing
public documents to tH&ir constituents.
It would be difficult for him to say what
he had intended, were there not another
stimulus by which his tongue and his
patience were rendered inexhaustible—
the reflection that although his words
were failing lifeless upon the ears of his
ostensible audience they would be read
by attentive constituents at home. It is
to them that speeches in Congress have
been addressed* since the introduction of
verbatim reporting. Congressmen who
were noted for their eloquence upon the
home stump have floundered through
written plattitudes at the Capitol, often
prepared for them by some journalist for
a stated compensation.
The first written speech read in the
United States Senate was by Hon. Isaac
Hill, of-New Hampshire, a firm supporter
of General Jackson. When about half

his discourse and stopped, evidently em

An Extraordinary Harder.
A murder has just been committed at
Fontchristiann, near Brianconn, tele
graph our Paris correspondent, under
very extraordinary circumstances. Two
sisters, named Marie and Catherine
Ollagnier, aged 45 and 47 respectively,
lived together at that place. They were
in comfortable circumstances and were
most attached to each other. Much of
their time was devoted to religious exer
cises and good works, and they were es
teemed far and wide. It seems that
the Lord had appeared to her
in the night and had asked her to sac
rifice her as a proof of her devotion.
Marie Ollagnier saw nothing strange
this, and consented to be offered up as
victim. Accordingly, on the following
piece of bread under his aim ana a hand
ful of olives in his pocket. In Southern
Italy no meal is made without olives.
The olive merchants pass regularly at
supper time through the poorer quarters
of the city. It is the Spanish habit to
eat olives at the end of a meal, but not
too many. Three or fo ir arc usually
thought enough, or if they are very good
onejuay eat a dozen. An Italian author
recommends the perserving of Spanish
olives—that is, of those grown on Italian
soil—but .prefers those called' Paint
Francis, which is common at Ascoli,
where it attains the size of a walnut. It
is, however, generally agreed among
S urmets that the smaller olives arc best
: catipg. The manner of treatment has,
nevertheless, perhaps, something to do
with the coarse quality of the Spanish
olive when found in the peninsula.
Olives are preserved in Italy, as else
where, in weak lye or brine.. They are
also bruised, stuffed in the Bordeaux
manner or dried. In eastern countries,
whence the olive came, the fruit forms
still an important article of diet.—San
Francisco Chronicle.
