day, with request that all licenses be revoked.
About 1900 places are licensed. The Commissioners
answered that they now had control Of the saloons

licenses were abolished. The ladies advanced
moral arguments and the interview was very affect.

Taste In Dress.

Far from being of the opinion of
Catharine of Aragon. that dressing
time is wasting time" the woman, we
are apt to think, who has not some
natural taste in dress, some love of
novelty, some delight in the cOmbina-
tions of colOrs, is deficient in sense of
the beautiful. As a work of art we'll
dressed woman is study. That love
of dress is natural, and that it has some
advantages, is so plain as to be scarcely
worth recording. 1t does not follow
that it should engross every other taste;
it is only the coQuette's heart which, as
Addison describes it, is stuffed with "a
flame -cOlOred hOOd.n From the days OF
Anne BOleyn, who varied her dress
every day, and who wore a small ker-
chief over her round neck to conceal a
mark thereon, and a falling sleeve TO
hide her dOubly-tipped little finger.
dress has had its place in the heart OF
an EnglishwOman. And it Is well that
it should be SO, for the dOwdy, be she
Young or be she old, is sure to hear OF
il from her husband, if she has not
already done so from brothers and
fancy cousins. Indifference, and conse :
auent inattentiOn. to dress often shows
pedantry, elf-righteousness, or indO-
fence; and, whilst extOlled by the 'uncO
guder as virtue, may be noted as a
defect. Every woman should habitually
make the best of herself. We dress 0uI
rooms with flowers and make our tables
gorgeous with silver, glass, and china
should our wives be less attractive
than all around themf Among the
rich and great the love of dress pro,
notes taste, and fosters ingenuity and
industry.

Spirits for Grief Stricken.

A very amusing application for the
privilege of opening a saloon, or pub
iic-house as it is called in England
was made in the ancient city of York
recently. A publican, presumably a
sinner, applied to the authorities for a
license to open such place near the
cemetery. There was, he explained, at
present no place for the persons to go
for a stimulent when depressed by
grief at the gravesides of their friends.
In making his application he was
backed by the lodge-keeper and, singu-
larly enough, the chaplain. The lat
ters motive must have been pure phil
anthropy. The former had tinge of
thrift in it. cat present." he said,
"these depressed persons come to my
lodge, and have to give them my own
brandy for 1 should be fined if l sold
it to them" The logic of this is unan-
swerable. If brandy is a necessity at a
funeral, there ought to be some means
of supplying it without loss to poor
lodge-keeper. But the theory for sub
stitnting ardent for departed spirits as
means of consolation always to be ap-
pealed to did not seem properly estab-
iished and the license was refused,

Against all chambermaids of whatso-
ever age or nationality, | launch the
curse of Batchelordom
Because
They always pat the pillows at the
burner, SO that while you read and
smoke before sleeping (as is the ancient
and honored custom of batchelors), you
have to hold your book aloft, in an un-
comfortable position, to keep the light
from dazzling your eyes.
If they cannot get the light in an un-
comfortable position any other way,
they move the bed.
II you pull your trunk out six inches
from the wall, so that the lid will stay
up when they open it, they always
shove that trunk back again. They do
it on purpose.
They also put your boots into inac-
cessible places. They chiefly enjoy
depositing them as far under the bed
as the wall will permit. 1t is because
this compels you to get down in an IN
dignified attitude and make wild sweeps
for them in the dark with the bootjack,
and swear.
They always put the match box in
some other place. They hunt up a new
place for it every day, and put bottle
or Other perishable glass thing, where
the box stood before. This is to cause
you to break that glass thing, cropping
about in the dark, and get yourself into
trouble.
They are forever moving the furni-
ture. When you come in, in the night,
you can calculate on finding the bureau
where the wardrobe was in the morn
ing. And when you come in at mid
night, or thereabout, you will fall over
the rocking chair. and you will proceed
toward the window and set down in the
slop tub. This will disgust you. They
like that.
No matter where you put anything,
they won't let it stay there. They will
take it and move it the first chance they
get.
They always save up the old scraps
of printed rubbish you throw on the
floor, and stack them up carefully on
the table, and then start the fire with
your valuable manuscripts.
And they use more hair oil than any
six men.
They keep always coming to make
your bed before you get up, thus de-
stroying your rest and inhicting agony
upon you, but after you get mp they
don't come any more till the next day.

miscellany.
A Wedding Necessity.

wedding ceremony nova days that
cannot aspire to notice in the newspa.
pers is clearly not what it ought to be.
A woman's happiness depends Sc
much upon what people say of her that
If she cannot be talked about she firmly
resolves there's no use of getting mar
ried.
Since Mrs. Grundy quilted the Gar
den of Eden she has been pacing about
the world making the misery or happi-
ness of millions.
She has not even yet reached her eli
macteric, although she has chained the
world of fashion to her triumph car
and compelled journalism to initiate
her example.
1t is therefore the initial condition of
welded bliss that the bride shall not
blush unseen, or how she looked and
what she wore pass unnoticed.
1t is better to read the statement that
she carried off forty-seven pairs of
stockings on her bridal tour, than to
escape all mention whatsoever.
Brides whose beauty and whose trous-
seaux are not duly gazetted /; can be
easily recognized by the way they
''slosh" things around at the breakfast
table next morning.
The mildest OF blue eyes or the soft
est and tenderest of brown, ones will
"spit fire" under such circumstances
without fear of exhausting the fuel.
There, is likewise the temptation for
a bride thus offended to upset the cof-
fee, set her sleeve in the butter, find
fault with the cooking, wish she were
back home again, threaten to cry a lit
tie, and finally to resent the sympathy
of the bridegroom as an indignity.
Considerations like these must neces-
sarily influence young men about to
marry.
If they have no acquaintance with
newspaper men the sooner they do have
the better it will be for them.
Newspaper men are not to be sub
orned upon a slight acquaintance. even
by the most seductive and subtle of ex-
pectant bridegrooms.
1t takes time to compass the favor OF
a irst-class wedding notice, and as that
is to the honeymoon what sauce is to
the goose, the path of duty is as plain
as the penalty for refusing to follow it
is certain.

C0W.Tress.

Among various kinds of trees which
are celebrated for their utility, not the
least valuable are those which yield a
milky Juice that does not solidify, and
may be used as nutritious article of
food. Trees of this kind bear the gen
eral name of cow-trees. OF the differ
ent varieties of these species. the best
known and most useful is the "Brosi-
mum GdlactOdendron." This tree Is
usually more than hundred feet high,
and is found in abundance on the sea-
coast of Venezuela. The milk OF this
tree is obtained from the sugar maple
trees. Its taste very much resembles
that of sweet cream, and it is much
used by the natives as food, being nour-
ishing and wholesome, with but one
unpleasant feature about it, which is,
that it is slightly glutinous.
LIN Venezuela and New Granada Is
also found another tree very similar to
the one above described, and for medi-
cinal purposes, more valuable. This is
the .'CIusia RodactOdendrOl, the
milk of which is considered SPECIFIC
for dysentery. The milk of this tree
contains a resinous and astringent prop
erty. and an aromatic substance. The
natives use the milk of this tree freely,
and by them dysentery is not feared,
though their climate is one calculated
to produce the disease. One OF the Pc
culiarities of this remedy is that it not
only cures the disease, but prevents Its
return. This milk can be kept year
without losing its taste or its valuable
medicinal properties.
Ofthis tree, and of the valuable prop
critics of its milk. Mr.. r. b. White
gives a very interesting account. He
states that out of party of from hve
hundred to seven hundred men who
were employed in building railroad
near Buenaventura in Western New
Granada, where the climate was ex-
tremely unhealthy, large number OF
cases of dyspepsia broke out, not one
of which proved fatal. In some cases,
the milk was given with success, when
other remedies had failed, and when
all hope of effscting cure had been
abandoned. He suggests, with much
show of reason and propriety, that the
milk of this tree should be tried In ca
ses of cholera.

Ladies and Vinegar.

Taken in moderation, there is no
doubt that vinegar is beneficial, but III
excess it impairs the digestive organs.
Experiments on artificial digestion
show that if the quantity of acid be
diminished, digestion is retarded; If
increased beyond a certain point, diges-
ton is arrested. There is reason, there
fore, in the vulgar nOtiOn-unhapplly
too often relied On-that vinegar helps
to keep down any alarming adipOsity,
and that ladies who dread the disap-
pearance of their graceful outlines IN
curves of plumpness expanding into
fat may arrest so dreadful a result by
liberal pOtatiOns of vinegar, but they
can only so arrest it at the far more
dreadful expense of their health. The
amount of acid which will keep them
thin will destroy their digestive powers.
Portal gives case which should be a
warning. "a few years ago a young
lady in easy circumstances enjoyed
good health she was very plump, had
a good appetite, and complexion
blooming with roses and lilies. She
began to look uponher plumpness with
suspicion, for her mother was very fat,
and she was afraid of becoming like
her. Accordingly she consulted a
woman who advised her to drink a
glass of vinegar daily. The young lady
followed the advice, and her plumpness
diminished. She was delighted with
the success of the experiment, and con-
tinued it for more than month. She
began to have a cough; but 1t was dry
at its commencement, and was cOnsid-
cred as slight cold which would &c
off. Meantime from dry it became

Ask why love the roses fair,
And whence they come, and whose they were
They come from her, and not alone
They bring her sweetness with their own.
Or ask me why love her so:
! know not, this is all know,
These roses bud, and bloom, and twine
AS she round this fond heart of mine.
And this is why love the flowers:
Once they were hers, they're mine-they're
ours;
l love her, and they soon will die
And now you know the reason why.

Only waiting till the shadows
Are little longer grown;
Only waiting till the glimmer
of the days last beam is flown
Til the night of earth is faded
From the heart, once full of day:
Till the stars of Heaven are breaking
Thro' the twilight soft and gray.
Only waiting tall the reapers
Have she last sheaf gathered home:
For the summertime is faded
And the autumn winds have come,
Quickly, reapers gather quickly
The last npe hours of my heart,
For the bloom of life is withered.
And / hasten to depart.
Only waiting till the angels
Open wide the mystic gate
By whose side long have fingered,
Weary, poor and desolate.
Even now i hear their footsteps,
And their voices far away;
If they call me am waiting,
Only waiting to obey.
Only waiting till the shadows
Are little longer grown;
Only waiting till the glimmer
of the days last beam is flown,
Then from out the gathering darkness
Holy, deathless stars shall rise,
By whose light my soul shall gladly
Tread its pathway to the skies.

where artificial wine is made into which
a grape never enters. In the valley of
the Rhine and the Palatinate there are
hundreds of similar manufactures
