Not only is our bride thus turned
into a drudge, often unmercifully
overworked, but from the day sue
gives up her cliiidliood to the day of
her death—it may be for sixty years—
she is secluded, and sees nothing of
the world outside the walls of her fam
ily inclosure. It should always, there
fore, be borne in mind, when trying
to realize Indian female life, what a
very' important thing the domestic
economy is to a woman; how largely
the petty a Hairs of the household
loom upon her horizon. Her happi
ness or misery, indeed, entirely nepend
on the manner in which the a Iran's ol

sidering that the female mind has for
centuries been mainly directed to tins

The Cemeteries of China.
But as soon as China was reached
the silent cities of the dead came again
to the fore, with greater prominence
than over. One stands on the walls
of Canton, near the Five Storied Pa
goda, and sees the hills to tlio north
all covered with graves. It is the same
near any Chinese city. The living
sailors Not Often Overworked.
Perhaps here it would be well to say
a few words about sailors and contrar
diet some of the romance and false
sentiment that is connected with them
by people and writers who know abso
lutely nothing about them. We had
anSextraordinaril.y fine crew, which I
studied closely all the way, and came
to this conclusion; First, that Jack is
not really vicious at heart, but at the
same time lie is a {Perfect child and
easily influenced by any character of
strong will that he conies in contact
with, so that one man who so desires
can spoil and make discontented a
whole crew, no matter how well they
mav be treated by the oilicers. 13ec-
ou.d, they are so much like children
that they even have to be told when
to go to bed and when to get up. The
least little thing will upset them, and
1 have known of a whole crew coming
forward crying and complaining be
cause the cook had spoiled their soup.
Third, that they do not have to work
as hard, and that as a rule they are
much better sed than the class of com
mon laborers.
It is all nonsense to imagine that a
sailor is an overworked man, for he is
not. Jack’s day is divided into watches
of four hours each, four on and four
off. Nor does this mean that they are
ail, especially in pleasant weather,
obliged to keep awake during the
hours at night when on watch, only
that they must be dressed and around.
They generally have one or two men,
chosen by lot, who keep awake and
instantly arouse the others if any order
is given. Then they’ are so trained by’
! habit that they wake up instantly
| whenever an order is given, and then
! go to sleep the minute it is executed.
| Of course, in stormy weather this is
i different, but in storms—and I have
seen some pretty severe ones, includ
ing a cyclone in the Pacific—there is
not nearly so much to do as one would
imagine.—Samuel F. Farrar in Chi

I heard a D.D. F. F. V. say in a ser
mon, “It does seem like the Lord has
some great and gracious purpose to
fulfill in,” etc. And a few minutes
thereafter, “I expect that this is the j
proper interpretation of this passage.”
There are people, on the other hand, j
who, born and brought up in the shadow j
of Yale, roll the phrase; “I want that!
you should,” like a savory and insoluble j
morsel under their tongues, and not a
few, who, as Mr. Howells’ Minister Sowell
regrets, will—albeit they are Harvard \
graduates—say, to the close of well spent
lives, “I don’t know as.”
People—this final count is written with
groanings unutterable—who, with the
best intentions conceivable (benevolent
and syntaxieal). never let slip an oppor
tunity of using the pronoun “they” when
the antecedent noun is in the singular
numlier. “If a person thinks they can
do that.” “If anybody has lost any
thing, they can apply at the desk.” “I
was talking with someone the other day,
and they said,” etc., etc.
None of tlio phrases cited as foibles of
speech'trench upon the debatable ground 1
of language. One and all, they are
glaring defects, flaws in gems which
lessen their value irretrievably. The
critical inspector instantly discounts the
intelligence or conscientiousness of him
who tenders them.
That those who are guilty of lapses of
this sort know better, does not exculpate
them or relieve the listener who respects
his noble vernacular too truly to condone
the unseemly familiarities that approxi
mate insult. When the delinquents are
those who assume to instruct others, the
foible liecomes guilt.

Poorer people stick their dead in shal
low graves, on which a small tablet of
wood or stone is put. In some dis
tricts of Quang-tung, near the head
waters of the Pe-Kiang river, the
cemeteries consist of big jars set j
in niches of the rocky cliff of the
Mac-ling mountains. As you pass
along the foot trails you see the steep
rocks above thickly studded with these
big car them jars, in each of which is
a human body in a sitting position.
In the rich alluvial plains, where no |
uncultivable hills are available for
burying the dead, a graveyard re
sembles much a white ant village in
Africa. The graves are sugar loaf
mounds, thickly clustered together.
While John Chinaman pays great re
spect to the dead, he takes care that
they do not appropriate much ground
that is of value to the living. The
cemetery of a Chinese village among
the rich rice fields covers little ground
in proportion to the number of graves.
It seemed to me that bodies must havo
been placed ono on top of another or ;
stood upright, so thick were the taperr
ing mounds.—Thomas Stevens in Chi
cago Tribune.
Reaching to Remote Antiquity.
A few weeks since we alluded to the
very interesting discovery of several
thousand small tablets used by the
Babylonian school children about
4,000 years ago. A more important
study has recently been made among
the ruins of an ancient city in upper
Egypt, on the banks of the Nile. This
discovery consists of a large number
of tablets which gives us what cer
tainly seems to be an authentic history
of Egypt, or of some parts of it, from
a date much earlier than that at which
its present authenticated history be- ' wheat,
gins, and which indicate an active f 1,r
correspondence between the most re
mote nations of the civilized cast at
least 1,200 years before the Exodus,
a discovery which leads Professor
Sayce, the distinguished English ar
chaeologist, to express the opinion Yhat
there may yet be similar “finds” in
Palestine.
Are There Unknown Senses?
Sound is the sensation produced on
us when the vibrations of tlio air strike
on the drum of our ear. When they
are few, the sound is deep; as they in
crease in number it becomes shriller
and shriller, but when they reach
forty thousand in a second they cease
to be audible. Light is the effect pro
duced on us when waves of light
strike on the eye. When four hun
dred millions of millions of vibrations
of ether strike the retina in a second,
they produce red, and' as the number
increases the color passes into orange,
then yellow, green, blue and violet.
But between forty thousand vibrations
in a second and four hundred millions
of millions we have no organ of sense
capable of receiving the impression.
Yet between these limits any number
of sensations may exist. We have
five senses, and sometimes fancy that
uo others are possible. But it is ob
vious that we can not measure the in
finite by our own narrow limitations.
Moreover, looking at the question
from the other side, we find in animals
complex organs of sense, richly sup
plied with nerves, but the function of
which we are as vet powerless to ex
plain. There may be fifty other senses
as different from ours as sound is from
sio-fit, and even within the boundaries
of our own senses there may be end
less sounds which we cannot hear and
colors aS-different as red from green
of which we have no conception.
These and a thousand other questions
remain for solution. Tito familial'
world which surrounds us may be a
totally different place to other ani
mals. To them it may be full of music
which we cannot hear, of color which
we cannot sec, of sensations which we
cannot conceive.—Sir John Luboock
in Popular Science Monthly.
The Treatment of Sleeplessness.
Recipes for sleeplessness continue to [
present themselves. A correspondent of j
The Lancet has found the following to be
an effectual remedy in his own case:
After taking a deep inspiration he holds
his breath till discomfort is felt, then re
peats the process a second and a third
time. As a rule this is enough to pro
cure sleep. A slight degree of asphyxia
is thus relied on as a soporific agent, but
the theoretical correctness of this method
is somewhat open to question. Cer
tainly there ia proof to show that the
daily expenditure of oxygen is most act
ive during the waking period, and that
nightly sleep appears to coincide with a
period of deficient tissue oxygenation.
It is at least as probable, however, that
other influences are associated with the
production and timely recurrence of sleep
besides that just referred to. This plan,
moreover, however effectual aiid bene
ficial in the case of its author, is not
without its disadvantages. The tendency
of deficient oxygenation is to increase
blood pressure and slow the heart’s ac
tion. With a normal organ, as an occa
sional occurrence, this might not be of
much consequence. If, however, the i
impeded heart should also be enfeebled by ’•
disease, the experiment might be re
peated once too often.
Another combatant in the struggle
with insomnia lays down a series of
rules, for tlio most part very sensible, to
which lie pins his faith. Considering
that the chief causes of sleeplessness are
worrv and the want of a due amount of
exercise and fresh air, he advises his fel
low sufferers to observe the ordinary
rules of hygiene relating to such matters,
to take food and drink in moderation
and to avoid of an evening the use of
tea, coffee and tobacco. In dealing with
severe nervous irritation from mental or
physical work, he has found a daily rest
an almost essential prelude to sleep at
night. Thus he treats of sleeplessness
rather as a tendency requiring constitu
tional remedies than a symptom of mer
brain excitation. There is much to be said
for his theory and means of treatment.—

a suit of sackcloth, with a rope girdle
about the waist. On the head is worn

umbrella, and made of basket work.
This hides tho whole upper jiortion of the
body, and for further protection against
obtrusion the mourner carries a large fan
before his face. It was in this disguise that
the Jesuits were enabled to enter the
country and carry on their worlx They

not expected to do any work, but at
stated times lie has duties to perform at
his ancestor’s tomb. All this is very
hard for some to bear, as tho whole re

thus be exhausted. In the case of useful

Rev. J. F. Clymer, Auburn, N. Y.,

insufficiently nourished. “Their bones

Various Hints Concerning Diet.
Children, especially young girls, are
rarely properly dieted. There is almost
universally a repugnance to meat and a
hysterical liking for sweets or acids, that
is unhealthy. When nerves cry for food,
they are given a stone, and rebel in con
sequence. A plentiful supply of meat
should be eaten at least once daily, and
this at breakfast, when the body needs
bolstering for tho day’s work, and when
the digestive tract is empty. Taken- then,
with moderate exercise, such food is
promptly assimilated and goes where it
does most good, directly into the blood.
I-heartily approve of late suppers, and
am convinced that the . human animal,
like others, sleeps best upon a stomach
filled with light, digestible food. Of
course there are idiosyncrasies; there are
many kinds of people, and the kind of
food proper for one would not suit
another; yet there need be no departure
from tho rule. An elderly lady came to
me not long ago and said that it was no
manner of use; she could not sleep if she
ate anything before she went to bed.
“What had you for supper last night,
madam?” I asked.
“Oatmeal porridge, doctor.”
“Well, vou could not have had any
thing better calculated to keep you
awake. In the first place, oatmeal, no
matter how prepared, is devoid of nutri
tion to any one save the very strongest
and hardest working of men It de

foreign substance. Do not touch it

lamb chop, with a bit of toast. ’
And the change was all she needed to
make her sleep peaceful.—William F.
Hutchinson, M. D., in American Maga

The Recall of the Hawks.
The recall was interesting and forms
one of the most wonderful features in
hawking. It was achieved by the' fal
coner calling out several times with a
loud, far reaching cry, “coomabee! coom-
abee!”an evident corruption of “come
(or coome) my bird.” The falconers
voice at once arrested attention as being,
from long practice, what authorities de
clare it ought to be, “full, clear and loud
if not “tremulous;” whence he was des
ignated ns “the sonorous falconer.”
These qualities were more than once re
quired that day when the hawk flev,
afar; but Peter’s voice never failed to
reach her and secure her return.
The cry varied with different men and
in different places, being with some a
long drawn “ho! ho!” and with others
“hoo! ha-ha-ha!” all, however, being
known as the “hollowing” of the fal
coner. In this first encounter the recall
was quite successful, for, in spite of her
disappointment and hovering watchfully
for the reappearance of the lost quarry,
the hawk at ouce obediently returned to
falconer’s wrist. She was then

Getting Something for Nothing.
It is always impossible to get some- i
tiling for nothing honestly. It is al
ways impossible to give something for
nothing beneficently. This is as true
in other realms as in the commercial, j
It is violated by other methods than
those of the gambler. The man who
gives a dime or a dollar to a beggar
for nothing does nothing to alleviate
poverty. Ho increases it. This is the
lesson * which the laggard brained
world lias been so long in learning.
But vie have learned it at lasL This
lazv hind of charity, is not charity at
all' This careless benevolence is not
benevolence at all. He who makes
the lx?ggar earn the dime or the dollar,
before or after, by service first ren
dered or by industry to be awakened
and set in motion, docs a charity. But
he who gives and neither demands a
compensating energy before nor
arouses a compensating energy after
gives nothing. He has only helped a
man to violate the universal and inex
orable moral law against all effort,
however disguiesd, to get something
ij: nothing. —Chg^-jaaa Ucscm

bugaboos do not appear in the dure

at cross roads, or in gloomy woods;
they arc everywhere. Every man has
his own ghost, every place has its pe
