The Airless Moon,

Among theillusionss swept away by mod
ern science was the pleasant fancy that
the moon was habitable globe like the
earth, its surface diversified with seas.
lakes, continents and islands, and varied
forms of vegetation. Theologians and
sordnts gravely discussed the probabili-
ties of its being inhabited by race of
sentient beings, with forms and faculties
like our own, and even propounded
schemes for opening communication
with them, in case they existed One
of these was tn construct on the broad
highlands of Asia a series of geometrical
figures on scale so gigantic rs to be
visible from our planetary neighboa, on
the supposition that the moon people
would recognize the object, and imme-
diately construct similar figures in re-
ply Extravagant and absurd as it may
appear in the light of modern knowl-
edge, the establishment of this Terres-
trial and Lunar Signal Service Bureau
was treated as a feasible scheme, al
though practical difficulties which so
often keep men from making fools of
themselves, stood in the way of actual
experiment but the discussion was kept
up at intervals, until it was discovered
that if there were people in the moon
they must be able to live without
breathing, or eating, or drinking. Then
it ceased
There can be no life without air.
Beautiful to the eye of the distant OBJ
server, the moon is sepulchral orb-a
world of death and silence. No vegeta-
ton clothes its vast plains of stony desc
lation, traversed by monstrous crevasses,
broken by enormous peaks that rise like
gigantic tombstones into space: no
lovely forms of clouds float in the black
ness of its sky. There daytime is only
night lighted by rayless sun. There is
no rosy dawn in the morning, and no
twilight in the evening. The nights are
pitch-dark. In daytime the solar beams
are lost against the Jagged ridges, the
sharp points of the rocks, or the steep
sides of profound abysses, and the eye
sees only grotesque shapes relieved
against fantastic shadows black as ink,
with none of that pleasant graduation
and diffusion of light, none of the subtle
blending of light and shadow, which
make the charm of terrestrial land
scape. A faint conception of the hor-
rors of a lunar day may be formed from
an illustration representing landscape
taken in the moon in the center of the
mountainous region of Aristarchus.
There is no color, nothing but dead
white and black. The rocks reflect
passively the light OF the sun; the craters
and abysses remain wrapped in shade !;
fantastic peaks rise like phantoms in a
glacial cemetery the stars appear like
spots in the blackness of space. The
moon is dead world she has no at

Drinking TO Excess.

Five-sixths of an animal body is made
up of water. A man weighing two hun
bred may be dried into mummy not
weighing over about sixteen pounds, in
Guiding bones of the skeleton. Water
therefore, is largely employed in giving
form, fexibility and beautiful lines.
Enough is taken in with the food to
meet all demands of the system. The
precise quantity, and indeed quality, is
regulated by a sense of thirst. But that
vital sentinel may be corrupted by ex-
cessive indulgence. When simple water
is taken, a morbid thirst never follows.
If, however, stimulating fluids are swal-
lowed, morbid craving may be gener-
ated, which, if not restrained, may be-
come an unsatisfied passion, to the posi-
tive injury of organs on the regular
functions of which sound health depends.
There is danger in indulging in artificial
drinks. Nature distils over in the stom-
ach by her own chemical processes
separating the water from them, which
is used for legitimate purposes, but re-
;ects all the rest, throwing it out of the
body through the kidneys and skin.
BY working the renal apparatus beyond
normal gauge, to carry off offending
elements, they fall into disease beyond
the resources of medicine. This ex-
plains prodigious advance of Bright S
disease--that is, degeneration and loss
of ability in those organs to do what
they must accomplish for stability in
health. None of the lower animals have
kidney disease, because they never drink
to excess or burden the stomach with
compound beverages.

A Race Dying Out.

From the amount of talk about Indian
matters i'll Congress the American of av-
erage information would naturally as
sumo that the United States had upon
its hands a copper-colored population of
at least half Million and the same
American would be at first greatly in
clined to doubt the statement that, set
ting aside the so-called civilized tribes,
there are less than 20, 900 Indians within
the limits of our entire country. In
1860 the number of the "uncivilized !"
was set down at A, OBJ. AT the present
time, according to the Commissioners
report there are but Is, 800. Should
this frightful ratio of decrease continue,
the beginning of the next century will
see this portion of the aboriginal race of
North America swept from the face of
the earth. The uncivilized tribes,
which go to make up the figures quoted,
include parts of the well-known Shaw
nees, Delawares, Wyandottes, Senecas,
Comanches, Sacs and Foxes, Pottawat-
tonnes, Miamis, Kaws and Osages, with
few New Mexico Apaches, and rem
nants of other tribes once rich and pow
erful in Pennsylvania and New York,
but now almost extinct. These tribes,
numbering 1S, 523 souls, are WORTH not
including their land, $3,172, 40S. They
cultivate 1896 acres, and produced in
1871 total of 1872, 900 bushels of grain,
or about 8 bushels to each man, woman
and child. They have AZ, 100 horses,
cattle and sheep, worth 81 ,69l 900, and
they raise yearly 1000 tons of hay, worth
500, 1000. Eight of the tribes have we'll
regulated schools, sixteen in number,
employing in 1871 thirty-four teachers,
and imparting instruction to 654 chill
dren Mt a cost of $40, 700 for the year.
In 1871, beside the grain yield, the In
dian Territory produced $4,000 worth
of raw cotton. In view of these facts,
the extraordinary rate of mortality APP
parent is fairly unaccountable. 1t can
not be referred TO the change in the
mode of living, for the mortality is
greatest among that portion which has
refused to adopt the manners and GUS
toms of civilization. One thing is
plainly evident, and that is, that the
race is doomed, and that nothing can
save it from early extinction.

Directions How to Carve.

The following from an agricultural
paper will help many otherwise intelli-
ent people who lack all skill and are al
ways embarrassed when asked to carve
To carve fowls, which should always be
laid with the breast uppermost, place the
fork III the breast, and take off the wings
and legs without turning the fowl; then
cut the merry thought, cut slices from
the breast, cut out the collar bone, cut
off the side pieces, and then cut the car
cass in two. Divide the joints in the
legs of turkey In carving sirloin
cut thin slices from the side next to you
(it must be on the dish with the tender
loin underneath), then turn it. Help the
guest to both kinds. In carving leg of
mutton or ham begin by cutting across
the middle of the bone Cut tongue
across and not lengthwise, and held
from the middle part. Carve fore
quarter of lamb by separating the shout
der from the ribs, and then divide the
ribs. Help each one to piece of kid
ney and it's fat Carve pork and mutton
in the same way. To carve a fillet of
veal, begin at the top and help to the
stuffing with each slice. In breast of
veal separate the brest and brisket, and
then cut up, asking which part is pre-
ferred. In carving pig it is customary
to divide it and take off the head before
it comes to the table, as to many per-
sons the head is revolving. Cut off the
ribs and divide them. In carving
vension, make deep incision down the
bone to let out the juice, and turn the
broad end towards you, cutting deep and
in thin slices. Warm plates are very
necessary with venison and mutton, and
in winter are very desirable for all kinds
of meats

Dry Method of Cleaning SOiled Fabrics.

Great progress has been made of late
years in the method of cleaning soiled
articles of dress, by removing tar,
grease, ETC., from wool and other raw
material, this, as it appears, being ac-
complished best by the so-called dry
method rather than by the use of
watery solution of soap or other aka
line substance. This originally con-
sisted in subjecting the articles in n
proper apparatus to immersion in ben
zine, gasoline, bisulphide of carbon,
etc., with continued rotation of the APP
paratus. More recently, however, it has
been ascertained that the vapor of these
substances, caused by distillation, is
more efficient than the liquid substances
themselves, the articles thus treated be-
ing much more rapidly penetrated, and
more thoroughly, than in the old way.
The articles are placed upon grating
over the liquid, the vapor from which
permeates them completely as it is car
ried over into the reservoir, where 1T Is
condensed and collected. In this form
it contains grease in solution, which
NAV be removed by q second distilla-
ton. while the hydro-carbon is obtained
in n form for further use.-Hd,Ter's
Magazine for March.
