she is implicity to obey. and who teaches
her what she is to do to please her husband
-what dishes he likes best and how to cook
them. If the mother-in-law is kind. she
will let the girl gohonie occasionally to visit
her mother.
Of her husband she sees little or nothing.
She is of no more account to him than a
little cat or dog would be. There is seldom
or never any love between them ; and no
matter how cruelly she may be Witt‘tl. she
can never complain to her husband of any-
thing his mother may do. for he \vould
never take his wife‘s part. Her husband
sends to her daily the portion of food that
is to be cooked for her. himself and the chil-
dren. “'hen it'is prepared she plscoe it on

A LADY‘S TRAKN.
As a large audience was coming out of n
theatro the other evening a considerable
commotion was noticed in one part of the
crowded throng. There appeared a break
in the otherwise cloacly tilled space. and
men were to be seen holding tlieinsv-lvt‘l
back from this opening. and exerting all
their powers to avoid being pushed into it
by the surging multitude behind and on
both sides of them. Hats were knocked ofl
in the crush. well polished boots. and the
come they inclosed. were trodden upon;
here and there a choice bit of profanity
floatedfrom the stuggling man and was
waftcd away into space. In short. there
was a general scene of confusion and dis-
turbance. “'hat had happened .’ Had a

“ l have just received the only mongoose.
that have ever come to America. and I
muldn‘t sell them for $1.000 apiece." said
hlr. lssaosensshe led the wayto a pen
about four feet square. in which two little
animals were moving about briskly. Ir.
lsoaosen is a destroyer of vermin by profes-
on, and an enthusiast by nature.
“ Look at them." he exclaimed as he to.-
ed a bit of meat into the pen. They are the
inveterate enemy of the rat. They kill foxee
and beasts of all sorts and eat snakes. They
attack all animals in the some way. They
spring upon their prey and eat into the back
of the neck and then up the head. and 8°
on until the animal is entirely consumed.
Nothing can shake them off. They eat rate
entirely up in marvelously short order.
Everything is «lei—bones. flesh. hair and
tail. A rst will fly from a mongooeerwith
the wildcat terror. but it is‘ uselerl. The
mongoose always catches it.“
The piece of meat that Mr. lsascaen had
thrown into the pen was coined by one C!
the moongvxises. The animal was a trifle
larger than a rat. and was covered with
brown hair about it)" an inch’long. Sir or
seven stripes of white hair run about its
ho ly. and its face was black. Its little eyes
twinkled brightly. The tail was short. The

paws with its sharp nine. and. with a rapid
motion of the jaws. ate a hole into the meat
until half its head was embedded. Then it
ibrubtly withdrew its head. thrust its claws
into the hole it had made. and tore the beef
again. Again it began to eat and in a mo-
ment more it had torn the chunk of beef in
