Careless Marrying.

The Providence Journal refers to the
careless facility with which clergymen
often perform the marriage ceremony
for any man who comes with woman
on his arm and fee in his hand, and
thinks it was mistake to repeal the old
law which required the publication OF
the banns of marriage. An exception
to the custom to which it alludes is the
following:
This matter is brought to our notice
by the very proper conduct of a clergy
man of this city, who was waited upon
last week by two candidates for matri-
moniaL felicity, and, in the course Of the
inquiries which he deemed it proper to
make of them, he readily discovered that
the man was decidedly under the inhu-
ence of strong liquor, and he told him
that he would not marry him. Why
not?" stammered the expectant bride
groom. Because you are drunk; come
here sober, and will decide whether /
will marry you or not; but in your pres
ent condition you are not fit to enter
into so solemn an engagement. The
man refused to leave till the ceremony
was performed; but he found that the
minister belonged to the church militant,
and made hasty retreat, with boot
close behind him. Doubtless he found
somebody to marry him.

MedimvaI Superstition,

The increased longevity Of later times
is less owing to improved therapeutics
than improved hygiene. DR.. Lyon Play
fair seys, in late paper read at Glasgow:
When the Egyptian, Greek, and Roman
civilizations expired, with their baths
and divine maxims about ablutions and
publications, dirt reigned for a thousand
years. Not,a man or woman in Europe
ever took a bath; hence the spotted
plaques, the black deaths, the sweating
sicknesses, the dancing manias, new
ing manias, and biting msnias that raw
aged the people, and cut off, in the mid
die ages, one-fourth of the entire popu-
lation. Religion came to the aid of dirt
the more filthy saint was, the more
sanity. he was considered. Some of the
hermits never changedAheir clothes and
only combed their hair once year. st.
Anthony never washed his feet, and St.
Thomas a Becket's under garments
acquired an additional sanctity from the
yernin they contained. Nervous dis
eases. the result of superstition, we're
frequent and often attributed to demons.

Habits Of the Iarnsshopner.

Professor Humiston of Worthington
Minnesota, described to the Tribune"
correspondent the grasshoppers mode
of depositing her eggs in the soil, sub
ject which he has had excellent oppor-
tunity for studying this year. The tail
Of the female locust consists Of hard,
bony, cone-shaped substance, capable
of being thrust into the ground from
one half of an inch to an inch in depth.
Just above this, on the body Of the in
sect, and attached to it, is the egg cell.
The grasshopper is able to push its con-
ical tail down into the ground and leave
it there, with the cell containing the
eggs. The warm sun in the spring
causes the eggs to hatch, and the field
is covered with millions of young grass
hoppers, not as large as kernel of
wheat, Just when the tender shoots of
grain begin to show themselves above
the ground. The damage they do is
immense, for they remain long time in
one spot, and work upon the young
shoots. Perhaps the best mode of treat
ment is "back-setting" or ploughing the
field, and thus turning the surface soil,
with its store of eggs, several inches
under. This prevents Matching, and
though not a complete remedy, is very
useful. - GALAXY tor December.

pointed out by other authorities, DR..
Lawson shows that the largest number
of deaths from this class of diseases
takes place either in the early morning,
when powers of life are at their lowest,
or in the afternoon, when acute disease
is most active. The occurrence OF these
definite daily variations in the hourly
death rate is shown, in the case of
chronic diseases, to be dependent on
recurring variations in the energies of
organic life; and in the case Of acute
diseases the cause is ascribed either to
the existence of a Well-marked daily ex'
treme of bodily depression, or a daily
maximum intensity of acute disease.

PICKING OUT THE PRETTY ONES.
A New York Manager Selecting HIS
Black Crook Troupe from among
Four Hundred Poor Girls.
From the New York Sun. Nov. III


From the New York Sun. Nov. III
In the green room of the grand opera
house at 10 o'clock yesterday morning,
seated on the chairs and sofas and lean
ing against the walls, were over four
hundred beautiful girls. An advertise
ment in yesterdays Sun for 1900 more
comely young maidens for the new
Black Crook" had called this assem-
blage together bright and early, each
would-be fairy hoping for lucrative
station in the line of beauty. As they
filed past the manager one by one, each
had some special qualification. One
had been on the stage in Niblo's Thea
ter, and would like to go on again, if
she could get place in the front line,
"but you known couldn't afford TO take
back seat-not me-" Another would
take hand" she said, "if she could
get enough pay to keep her little sister.
A faded little old woman, in a suit OF
faded black, hobbled up to the window
and begged for place in one Of the back
rows. A saucy little mink with flashy
red scarf was all there, all there was OF
her-if they wanted her they could have
her." And they did want her, for she
was beautiful. Next letter Of recon-
mendation from San Francisco troupe
was raised up to the window by a mite OF
body, with jaunty parasol on her arm
and a satchel in her hand. A pretty
miss of thirteen, neatly dressed, with a
pink in each cheek, was tenderly taken
into the office, where she might not be
iostled by the crowd. Then followed a
dozen or so of the fair to middling,"
one or two extra superGne," and a long
file of the common.places, the astnte
manager meanwhile taking his choice
and making his selections with the skill
of an old stager.
At last the green.room was empty
the sylphs had disappeared and the
manager sat in his furnished Office to en-
Joy a good cigar.
"How did you manage to collect so
many girls who wish to go on the stageY
asked the reporter. :. ,
"Oh, that was easily dole, replied
the manager; -four lines in this morn
ings Snn did it. l have answered 42O
applicants, a little over 100 applicants
for each line of advertising. would
have been glad to give them all work,
but too many you'd crowd the dressing
rooms"

show. Where do you find your artistes
who do the singing and the dancing2'
I'VE make special contracts with
them. Some of the best operatic talent
in America will be presented in the new
Black Crook" To a good dancer we
pay $35 a week. The singers get more.
To these girls who have not been on the
stage we pay $40 week"

Father and son lived close by each
other in ona of the towns in this vicinity.
The old man has big barn, and last
spring the young une bought all the fan
cy fowl he could lay hands on and quar-
tered them in his fathers barn. He
sold not an egg of the multitude LARA,
but had them all hatched, except what
were added, and the number of chick
ems, was like the grasshoppers west of
Mississippi. They ate up the beans, un-
til nothing but stalks were left; they ate
up the currants, and every green thing
about the two houses except the grass
and the onions. The old gentleman
had trees of nice pears, but the chick
ems got up in the morning earlier than
he, so that he has had hardly taste of
them. Even his apples have suffered
ssFerely, and his neighhorS have won

Of the town The old man put in a
hslfdozen new cellar windows week

else which he ought not to do, the driver
has simply to pull the cord, choke the

From the Jewish Times
From Temesvar, Hungary, comes the
report thgt sn entire sect, formerly Chris
tians, has determined to embrace Juda'
ism. The Sabbatarians haVp thus far
confessed Christianity, believing in the
Messiash;p Of Jesus of Nazareth, but
celebrated the Jeyish Sabbath as
the Lords day. They also observed
other prescripts found in the old
dispensation. They abstained from
eating the meat of animals designated
as unclean, and commemorated the Day
of Atonement. They had to carry on
the practice of ceremonies that are Jew
ish in great secrecy, in order to escape
persecution. They now propose to be.
come fully identified with Judaism. A
delegation representing one congrega-
ton of thirty-four families has arrived
at Temesvar to ask admission TO the
Jewish fold and to obtain the means to
build synagogues, purchase Torah rolls,
and to establish such institutions as are
deemed requisite 10 carry out their OBJ
iect fully. The Ssbbatarans are agri.
