That was a cautious old tramp who,
upon being asked whether he would

“Charles," said Mrs. Spendall, “I

the. mistress, thinking that he would

SODIE FADIO'US OLD MAIDS.
Look at the list. Elizabeth of Eng-
land, one of the most illustrious of
modern sovereigns. Her rule over
Great Britain certainly comprised the
most brilliant literary age of the English
speaking people. Her political acumen
was certamly put to as severe a test as
that of any other ruler the world ever
saw. Maria Edgeworth was an old
maid. It .was this woman's writings
that first suggested the thought of writ-
ing similarly to Sir Walter Scott. Her
brain might well be called the mother
of the Waverley novels. Jane Porter
lived and died an old maid. The
children of her busy brain were “ Thad-
deus of Warsaw” and the “Scottish
Chiefs," which have moved the hearts of
millions with excitement and tears. J o-
anna Baillie. poet and playwriter, was
“one of ‘em." Florence Nightingale,
most gracious lady, heroine of Inkerman
and Balaklava hospitals, has to the
present written Miss before her name.
The man who should marry her might
well crave to take the name of Night
ingale. Sister Dora, the brave spirit of
English pest-houses, whose story is as a
helpful evangel, was the bride of the
world’s sorrow only. And then what
names could the writer and the reader
add of those whom the great world may
not know, but we know, and the little
world of the village, the church, the
family know, and prize beyond all
worlds. .
BULWER’S FOLLY.
“Junius” was a noble folly. It is
inconceivable how a man of such versa-
tile and profound genius as Edward
Lytton Bulwer could have written this
unfortunate play. It is yet more inex-
plicable that a pact and a man of letters
so distinguished as Owen Meredith, a
man whose critiml standard of intelli-
gence is so lofty and exacting, could be
induced, even by the fervor of filian
piety, to consent to its exhumation.
It is, indeed, at home that every man
must be known by those who would
make a just estimate either of his virtuc
orfelicity.

law to the effect that bicyclists must stop
riding whenever they. approach within
one hundred yards of a team, and after
dismounting remain standing until the
main has passed. This law may be a good

should be amended so as to compel the

' industry in California.
tion of mustard has become quite an,
About
hunde tons a year are now produced.
The mustard plant, flourishes most in
the Salinas valley, Alameda Countyin
the southern part of the State. There
are two varieties—brown and yellow.
The former growawild, while the latter
is cultivated.‘ The brown mustard seed
is growing more scarce every year.
because as it luxuriates on good wheat
lands the farmers pluck the weeds from
their growing wheat. The mixture of
mustard with wheat makes the wheat
rank and destroys its sale. So, while
the wheat farmer declares war on til-.2
small mustard seed he is enhancing its
value. Formerly the brown mustard
seed was worth only two cents per
pOund; now that it is scarce it sells at
three and a half cents, and will likely
advance in proportion to its scarcity.
Formerly the yellow mustard seed was
dearer, but new it is cheaper, because
more abundant. The yellow variety is
imported from England and from Hol-
land. The brown seed is imported from
Italy. .
The yellow mustard fields of the
Salinas valley are very beautiful, and
smell rank, not only to heaven, but also
to every passer-by who inhalers the
heavily~laden breezes. The plant grows
to a height of two or three feet within a
month. It is cultivated mainly by
Chinese. During the first nine months
of last year about two hundred and fifty
thousand pounds were shipped from
San Francisco, and nearly fifty thousand
pounds were shipped from interior
points. The bulk of the shipments are
sent East by rail, but large shipments
are also made by steamers and sailing
vessels around the Horn. There isa
brisk demand for mustard in’Eastern
markets. Mustard is on the free list.
Before the civil war there was a duty on
it, but it was repealed under the pre-
tence that mustard was a medical quality,
necessary for plasters to weak backs.
The mustard merchants in California
want the duty restored to protect a
Pacific Coast industry. /
Mustard was formerly used as amedi-
cine; it was not known to the table
until 1720. The seed had been pre-
viously pounded in a mortar, and in
that crude state separated from the
integuments and prepared for use. In
England, at the period referred to, it_
occurred to a woman named Clements
that mustard could be used for other
purposes than blistering. She ground
the seed in a mill and treated it in the
same way that flour is treated. Her
mustard was, in consequence, very
superior, and being approved by George
11., speedily came into general use.
Mrs. Clements kept her secret for a
considerable time, though a woman,
and acquired a large fortune. In the
countries of the for East mustard is.
extensively cultivated. Half an acre is
considered a good sized farm.

FOREIGN LIFE A'i‘ “'ASIIINGTON.
O v.1

.—
It is a curious thing that the capital
of the United States should be more
like a foreign city than any other town
in this country. It is a great place for
people who have lived in Europe for a
good many years, to setup their house«
holds. It is a kind of brake which gent-
ly lets them down from the intoxication
of European life to the dead level of an
American commercial city. This class
of returned tourists make up much of
the winter population of Washington—-
and being as a rule both rich and idle.
they add much to its charm. Nowhere
on this continent is there so'much leis-
ure as here. , Everything like work
begins at 9’o'clock and ends at 4. Then,
unlike other great cities, the workers do
not have to traverse the whole length
and breadth of the town to get to their
homes. The public workshops are all
central—it is not far from any man’s
work to his home. The shorter hours of
work which prevail in foreign cities are
a continual marvel of the American.
The idea of a man of business making
his first appearance at his ofice at 10
'o’clock‘in the morning, then taking a
'big slice off at noon—just the most
valuable part of the working day—and
,then quitting about the time the Ameri-
can gets fairly warmed up in his work,
is certainly very surprising. But it
here and finds that after 4 o'clock all the
town is at leisure. It is true that the
higher officials have longer working
hours and the Cabinet ofiicers are driv-
en to death if they mind their business,
but the average worker does his eight
hours work and then leaves off, with
two hours of daylight before him even
in winter.
Then for that fraction of the world
known as “ society," the hours are fixed
and invariable, and this, too, conduces
to the economy of time. One is in no
danger of having a whole day, from
noon to twilight, monopolized by a
string of inconsequential visitors. No-
body visits before 2, and nobody versed
in Washington society before 3, and at
5fit is all over. All ofiicial houses and
nearly all private ones have a day for
receiving. so that each individual has
six days in‘which to labor and do all
that he or she has to do. It is a wonder
that this easy well-ordered life charms
people to Washington, and getting
them there keeps them.
TH E ‘llLlNGO.
A curious instance of the invasion of
seen in the history of the mango in
Jamacia. In 1782 specimens of the
cinpamon, jack-fruit and mango were
sent to the botanic garden of the island.
There the cinnamon was carefully
'fostered;but proved to be difficult of
culture in the island; while the mango,
which was neglected, became asjcommon
in eleven years as the prange, speeding
over lowlands and mountains, from the
sea level to five thousand feet elevation.
'On the abolition of slavery, immense
tracts of land, especially cofi‘ee planta-
tions, relapsed intoa state of nature.
The mango, being a favotite fruit with
the blacks, its stones were flung every-
where giving rise to groves along the
roadside, and along the settlements;
and the fruits of these again rolling
down hill gave rise to forests in the
valleys. The cfi'ect of this spread of
the mango has been to cover hundreds
of thousands of acres, and to ameliorate
ilie climate of what were dry and barren
districts by producing moisture and
shade, and by retaining" the rainfalls
[that had previously evaporated; all this ,
besides afi‘ording food for several months
ill the year to both negrocs and horses.

F03 A sick room, the sand bag is in-
valuable. Get some clean, fine sand;
dry it thoroughly in a kettle on the
stove. Make a bag about eight inches
square, of flannel, fill it with the dry
sand; sew the opening carefully to-
gether and cover the bag with cotton or
linen. This will prevent thesand from
sifting out, and will also enable you to
heat the bag quickly by placing it in
the oven or even on top the stove. After
once using this you will never again
attempt to warm the feet or hands of a
sick person with a bottle of hot water or
a brick. The sand holds the heat a
long time, and the bag can he tucked
up to the back without hurting the in-
valid. It is a. good plan to make two or
threeof the bags and keep them on
hand, ready for use at any time when
needed.
Tim some of milk is caused by the
change of the sugar of milk in lactic
acid under the influence of the caseine,
or cheesy matter which the milk con-
tains. Boiling, however, deprives case-
ine of the power of converting sugar of
milk into lactic acid. Now, if milk can
be-put into bottles which, after. being
well' corked, are placed in a pan with
cold water, and gradually raising to the
boiling-point, and, after being allowed
to cool, be taken out and kept in new]
place, the milk will “keep perfectly for
mere than half a year. If the milk be
exposed to the air after boiling, the
caseine gradually recovers its power of
converting sugar into lactic acid. In
this one the boiling has to be repeated
every day or every second day, and
milk may thus be kept fresh for two
months or more. If access of air be
prevented, only one boiling, or, rather,
heating to the boiling point, is required.
The action of caseine in producing
lactic acid maybe rendered very slow
by a reduction of temperature. If milk
be kept at alow temperature—approach
ing freezing point, for instance—it will
,not turn sour for several days.

now THE SALMON JUMPS.
Professor A. Landmark, chief director
of the Norwegian Fisheries, has pub-
lished some interesting particulars of
his studies of the capability of salmon
-to jump water-falls. Heis of Opinion
that the jump dep'ends as much on the
height of the fall as on the currents
below it. 1' If there be a deep pool right
under the fall, where the water is com-
paratively quiet, a salmon may jump
sixteen feetperpendicularly, but such
jumps are rare, and he can only state
with Certainty that it has taken place at
the Hellefos, in. the Drama River, at
Haugsend, where two great masts have
been placed across the river for the study
of 'the habits of the salmon, so that
exact measurements may be efi‘ected.
The height of the water in the river, of
course, varies, but it is as a rule, when
the salmon is running up stream sixteen
feet below these masts. The distance
between the two is three and one-half
feet, and the professor states that he
has seen salmon jump from the river
below across both masts. As another
example of high jumping, he mentions
some, instances of Carratunk waterfall,
— Reumbec, in North “America, where
jumps of twelve feet have been recorded.
Prof. Landmark ‘ further states that
when a salmon jumps a fall nearly per-
pendicular in shape, it is sometimes
able to remain in the fall, even if the
jump is a foot or two short of the actual
height. This, he maintains, has been
proved by an qverwhelming quantity of
evidence. The fish may then be seen
to stand for a minute or two a foot or
so below the edge of the fall, inthe' same
spbt, in a trembling motion, when
"with a smart twitch of the tail the
rest of the fall is cleared. But only
fish which strike the fall straight
with the snout are able to remain in
the falling mass of water; if _it is
struck obliquely, the fish is carried
back into the stream below. This Prof.
Landmark believes to be the explana-
tion of salmon passing falls with a clear
descent of sixteen feet. The professor
believes that this is the extreme jump a
salmon is capable of, and points out -
that, of course, not all are capable of
performing this feat

“beautiful enough for the purpose when
the pictures were first handed to him,
but on being pressed shrugged his
shoulders and went to work. General
Meigs’s son, a pretty golden-haired boy,
does duty as a cherubim, also, in ‘com-
pany with a little girl. a daughter of
Mr. Walter, at one :time architect of
the Capitol.
Itis said that the face of Jcfi‘ Davis
himself appears conspicuously in the
frescoing in the canopy above the
rotunda, but in a character not compli-
mentary. Brumidi always claimed,
however, that the likeness was ,not
intentional. In this great allegorical
piece five figures representing Discord
are being driven from the scene by the
angry goddess. One of these figures,
whether by accident or intent, has the
face of Davis, and the others are consi-
dered fair likenesses of General Robert
E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, Alexander
Stephens and Calhoun, Architect
Clark thinks these likenesses are purely
accidental, or the resemblances are only
fancied. The one of General Lee. for
instance, he said to the Star reporter,
was put there when Lee was remembered
as a dapper man with no beard. Yet it
was a very fair likeness of the bearded
man who surrendered to Grant. Bru-
midi had no means of knowing that he
had let his beard grow.
Two likenesses that are known to have
been put into this grand allegory inten-
tionally are those of Mr. Walter, the
architect, and Robert Morris, the great
Secretary of the Treasury. Mr. Morris
is the figure representing the merchant.
Brumidi first placed thahead of General
Meigs upon this figure, but that gentle-
man requested that it be taken out,
11inch against the wishes of the artist,
who wanted to do this honor to his kind
patron. He finally agreed, however, to
substitute the head of Robert Morris,
who was considered to have done more
than any other man of his day for the
commerce of the country. The figures
of Franklin, Morse and Fulton were
used to personify science and invention,
and it is not unlikely that the artisi
costing about for Discord in about the
. yam-196?. should strike upon the great
secessionists, and that the likenesseLiIL
that. case. are as real as in the others.

:
The researches of modern philologistl
have proved, by the study of languages
and their roots, that most of the nations
of modern Europe have descended from
the same‘ Aryan parents of‘the inhabi-
tants of the Indian peninsula. Climate,
in the course of time, has so modified
them as apparently to produce different
races. . For such a change to take place,
geological lapses of time are wrtainly
required. Our earliest records, dating
back several thousand years, show these
races, such as they are now, quite as
distinct. In these days the Aryan races
of Europe cannot rear their children in
the climate of India, where their Hindu
relatives thrive and propagate their spe-
cies. In Palestine and Egypt the bibli-
cal records, those of the Pharaohs, and
those of Nineveh and Babylon, show
these regions to have been inhabited,
several thousand years ago, by nations
and tribes presenting precisely the
same race characteristics as those that
now inhabit them. During the histori-
cal period, the races of Europe have in
vain endeavored to colonize the valley
of the Nile, but they have not been able
Lto propagate their species, and have
died away, leaving the valley of the Nile
to its ancient inhabitants. Their chil-
dren cannot withstand the heat of sum-
mer. On the northeastern shore of AI-
rica, the Algeria of the present history
presents the same record. The Romans
and the Visigoths occupied its plains for
centuries, continually recuiting their
colonies from the mother countries; and
yet, except in the mountains, all trace
of their presence has disappeared. They
could not rear their children so as to
occupy the land of the Arabs. What
lengthened periods of time must have
elapsed to so profoundly modify races
deriving their orgin from a common
percentage, that they can no longer live
and propagate their species in the same
climates.

DOG TOWNS.
The prairie dogd‘s a burrowing ani-
mal, and the spot on which it congreo
gates is literally hOney-combed with its
tunnels. There is, however, a kind of
order observed in the " dog town,” as
, these warrens are popularly called, for
:the animals always leave certain roads
' or streets in which no burrow is made.
The affairs of the community seem to be
regulated by a single leader, called the
big dog, who sits before the entrance of
_ his burrow and issues his orders from
thence to the community. In front of
every burrow a small_heap of earth is
raised, which is made from the excav-
ated soil, and which is generally em-
ployed as aseat for the occupant of the
burrow.- As long as no danger is ap-
prehended, the little animals are all in
lively motion, sitting upon their
mounds or hurrying from one tunnel
to another, as eagerly as if they were
transacting the most important busi-
ness. Suddenly a sharp'yelp is heard,
and the peaceful scene is in a moment
transformed into a whirl of indistin-
guishable confusion. Quick barks re<
sound on every side, the air is filled
with a dust-cloud, in the midst of which
is indistinctly seen an intermingled
mass of flourishing legs and whisking
tails, and in a moment the populous
“ town " is deserted. Not a dog is vis-
ible, and the whole spot is apparently
untenanted. But in a few minutes
a pair Of black eyes are seen gleaming
at the entrance of some burrow, a set of
glistering teeth next shine through the
dusky recess, and in a few minutes first
' one and then another prairie dog iss-i-n
from his retreat, until the whole emi-
munity is again in lively action. .
ACCIDENTAL POISONING.
-—
Says an exchange: "If you have
swallowed poison, whether laudanum,
arsenic, or other poisonous drug, put a
tablespoonful of ground mustard ins
glass of ‘ water. cold or. warm, stir and
swallow quickly. Instantaneously the
contents of the stomach will be thrown
up, not allowing the poisonous sub-
stance time to be absorbed and taken
into the blood. As soon as vomiting
‘ ceases, swallow the white of one or two
eggs, for the purpose of antagonizing
any small portion of the poison which
may have been left behind. Let the
reader remember the principle, which
is to get the poison out of you as quickly
as possible.
“There are other things which will
also serve as a speedy emetic, but the
advantage of mustard is, it is always at
hand, it acts instantaneously without
any other medical efi‘ects. The use of a
white of an egg is, although it does not
nullify all poisons, it antagonizes a larger
number than any other agent so readily
attainable. But having taken the
mustard or egg. send for a physician ;
these are advised in order to save time,
asthe' delay of twenty minutes often
causes deat " ‘
