Women in Cities.

The Nav York correspondent Of the
Troy Times writes:
One of the powerful features insepara-
BILE from metropolitan life is the degraua-
ton of women. | do not refer mere 10
anything of vicious nature, out Simply
to the result of extreme poverty woman
here suffers from dire want much more
than man, because his strength ana gen
eral resources are superior. You see the
most pitiable women here, because the sex
is forced to unfeminine employment. Some
might be amused by the taclle exercise ct
the SHOOK or sickle with which tins
class cut fodder for their cows and goats,
since they do it with great rapldity;;
have seen this in the vacant uptown lots,
where, if labor was worth anything, the
stock of weeds thus gathered ought to be
worth 500 a ton. Coming down town
lately | saw n woman carrying coal from
the sidewalk upstairs in pals. She had
been lucky enough TO get load OF this ar
ticle, and was thus storing it in her room
/ in the tenement house. You see women
carving baskets of peaches. or drawing
hand carts, and in other ways engaged in
very severe toll 1t is, OF course, better
than idleness or CRIME, but at the same
time il is not a pleasant sight. As con-
trast with this wretched degradation,
, may mention statement made TO me by a
! dealer in fashions that there are five hun
dred women in this city each of whom

The Australian Mode.

The natives III some parts OF Australia
practice very economical method of
conducting courtships, that saves all the
expense of operas, balls, rides, good
clothes, as well as presents of sets of
jewelry, and whole libraries of novels
bound in blue and gold If young
warrior meets in his travels through
the bush girl that strikes his fancy,
he Immediately strikes her head with
his war club, and before she has time to
recover from the effects of the blow, he
carries her off in triumph. Sometimes,
several young wife hunters secrete them
selves near some travelled path, and
strike down such fair maidens as pass
along. At other times they enter huts
and lay out such girls as seem to be the
best housekeepers. The favorite and
most satisfactory way of selecting wives
is accomplished in this wise : Several
romantic youths, each armed with a
spear and knife, start out and travel
round the country, seeking whom they
may wed. Coming up to where party
is encamped, they examine the features
of the maidens as they lie sleeping, and
when each has made his selection. he
twists his spear in her hair, and either
pins her to the earth or drags her to
some retired spot, where, with a knife
drawn across her throat, she promises
to love, honor and obey till her husband
gets tired of her. This completes the
simple and pleasant marriage ceremony.
Sweet-hearts won in this way make ex-
cellent wives. The English have tried
to break up this custom, but have not
succeeded. The only way it can be
done, in our opinion, is to introduce the
style of hair worn in this country II
would be amusing to see one of these
braves running off with an armful Of
iute stuck to his spear, and the owner

Summer Diet for Infants.

Overlooking does more harm than
anything else; nurse a baby of month
old or two every two or three hours
nurse a baby of six months and over
five times in twenty-four hours, and no
more. Is b. ga t1H
When baby gets thirsty in the mean
time. give it a drink of water or barley
water. In very hot weather, mix a tea
spoonful of whisky and a trlmbler full
of water mo sugar..
Boil a teaspoonful of powdered bar
ley grind it on the coffee grinder) and
gill of water with salt for fifteen min
utes. Strain it and mix it with half as
much boiled milk and piece. of loaf
sugar. Give it luke-warm, through a
nursing bottle.
Keep the bottle and mouth-piece in
water when not in use.
Give babies of five or six months half
barley-water and half-boiled milk, with
salt and loaf-sugar.
Give older babies more milk in pro-
portion.
When babies are very costive, take
oatmeal instead of barley, but be sure to
cook and strain it.
When your breast milk is half enough
for the infant, aalternate with bread and
food.
In hot summer weather, dip small
piece of itn aper into the food be-
fore feeding. / the blue paper turns
red, add pinch of baking soda to the
food.
Babies of six months may have beef
tea or beef soup once day by itself or
mixed with other food.
Babies of ten or twelve months may
have a crust of bread and piece of rare
beefsteak to suck.
No child under two years ought to
eat from your table.
The. summer complaint comes from
over-feeding and hot and foul air.
Keep doors and windows open. Wash
your children at least twice a day.
Ten times are not too many in the hot
season.
When babies throw off and purge,
give them nothing to eat for four or six
hours, but all the cold air you can
After that, you may give few drops OF
whisky in teaspoonful of ice-watel
every five or ten minutes, but no more
until the doctor comes. When there is
vomiting and purging give no milk.
Give no laudanum, no paregoric, nc
soothing sirup, no teas.-Neao Yorl
