JAPANESE WoMEN.-Japanese women
are charming in manner, and would be in
appearance, were it not for their ungainly
forms, which are ruined by clumsy mode
of dress, and among the poorer classes, the
practice of carrying heavy burdens on the
back. When a Japanese girl reaches the
age of sixteen without having undergone
either of the processes of deformity, she is
wonder to the eye, and remains so until
twenty-five, or possibly little later. Then
she ceases to charm for a certain period, in
any way excepting by her manner, and
that is generally preserved to the last. But
as she grows old, she has chance of be-
coming quite delightful again. There is
nothing nicer than dlgnifed and white
haired old Japanese lady. She is always
happy, for she is always much respected
and cherished by her youngers, and at a
certain age the natural high breeding of
the race appears in her to attain it's crys-
talization.

lNTEMPERANCE IN DRINKING WArER-
There is lntemperance in drinking other
beverages than intoxicating liquors. The
best medical authorities are with Dr. Hall
in opposition to the immoderate dri hiking
Of water. He says:
The longer one puts off drinking water
in the morning, especially in the ST INNER,
the less he will require during the day; if
much is drank during the loren Don, the
thirst often increases, and a very unpleas-
ant fullness is observed, in addit ion to a
metallic taste in the mouth.
The less man drinks the bette for him,
beyond moderate amount. 1.-The more
water man drinks, the more st rength he
has to expend in getting rid OF it, for all
the fluid taken into the system must be
carried out; and there is but Ii tile nou T.
ishment in water, tea, coffee, be er. and th G
like; more strength is expended in carry
ing them out of the system tn an they i'm
part to it. The more man drinks, the
more he must perspire, either by the lungs
or through the skin; the more he perspires,
the more carbon is taken from the system;
but this carbon is necessary for nutrition
hence, the less a man is nc,urished, the
less strength he has. Drinking water
largely diminishes the strength in two
ways; and yet many are und er the impress
sion that the more water swallowed, the
more thoroughly is the system ''washed
out" Thus the less we drink at meals,
the better for US. If the amount were
limited to single cup OF hot tea or hot
milk-and-water at each meal, an immeas-
urable good would result to all. Many
persons have fallen into the practice of
drinking several glasses of cold water, OF
several cups of hot tee. or coffee, at meals,
out of mere habit; all such will be greatly
benefited by breaking it up at once. 1t
may be very well to drink little at each
meal, and perhaps it will be found that in
all cases it is much better to take a single
cup of hot tea at each meal than glass of
cold water, however pure.

A RECENT number of the sWomen's
Centennial Journal'' says: "Out of the
many cases of sunstroke treated at the
medical department, very few have been
women. This fact proves that either the
dress of women is better suited to the eli
mate than that of men, or else the system,
less heated by Intoxicating liquors, is in a
purer condition, or perhaps, that they not
only have greater power of endurance, but
know better how to take care of them
selves, and how to live discreetly." There
is much in this, but What do the female
dress reformers say?

WHERE FAILURE COMES IN.-Bustles
are once more growing in length, breadth
and thickness. 1t is lamentable to con-
template the fact that an all wise Creator
should make such botch of the female
human form, that 1t has to be built out
here, and compressed there, in order to
make it at all presentable to fashionable
society. We believe this is the only piece
of work in which He made failure. The
following from the Elmira "Advertiser"'
is more evidence upon the above subject:
"Human ingenuity, aided by diabolical
cunning, has brought forth an article and
foisted it upon long suffering and patient
public, which, it would seem, must break
the camel's back. 1t is cross between a
hustle and whirlwind, and is called a
s'tilter." It differs materially from the
old fitting hoop skirt, aDd is so construct
ed as to make woman's skirt flop from
one side to the other in walking in the
most ridiculous and ungfaceful manner -

The Latest Wonder.

The readers of the "Traveller'' have
been made acquainted with the wonderful
invention of Prof. Bell, by which musical
and vocal sounds can be aud have been
sent oyer the electric wires, but few, if
| any, are aware of the wonderful results
which are sure to follow this Improvement
in telegraphy. A few nights ago Prof.
Bell was in communication with telegraph
operator in New York, and commenced
experimenting with one of his inventions
pertaining'to the transmission of musical
sounds. He made use of his phonetic
organs and played the tune Of America. -
and asked the operator in New York what
he heard.
II hear the tune of America" replied
New York; "give us another"
Prof. Bell then played "Auld Lang
Syne.''
"What do you hear now?"
81 hear the tune of s'Auld Lang Syne,"
with the full chords, distinctly" replied
New York.
Thus, the astonishing discovery has been
made that man can play upon musical
instruments in New York, New Orleans,
or London or Paris, and be heard distinct
ly in Boston! If this can. be done, why
cannot distinguished peri ormers execute
the most artistic and beautiful music in
Paris, and an audience as semble in Music
Hall, Boston to listen?
Prof Bell's other improve ment, namely,
the transmission Of the human voice, has
become so far perfected that person have
conversed over 1000 miles of wire with
perfect ease, although as yet the vocal
sounds are not loud enough to be heard by
more than one or two persons. But if the
human voice can now be sent over the
wire, and so distinctly that when two or
three known parties are telegraphing:, the
voices of each can be recognized, we may
soon have distinguished men delivering
speeches in Washington, New York, CIR,
London, and audiences assembled in Music
Hall or Faneuil Hall, to listen.-Bostoas

thin for him to do. Having actually
saved his first dollar, he will have acquired
with it IL power of self-denial and a tenac-

all his life without saving, show am l to

You must do as to MONEY matters what a
certain ancient school of philosophers did
as to morals. These old sages used, every
night, to review their actions for the day,
and see what they ought not to have done,
and what they might have done better OF
the things which it had been necessary for
them to do. So too, must you every night
review the action of the day, and see what
you have spent that you ought not to have
spent, and how you might have got more
economically what it is necessary for you
to obtain. Any one who. faithfully makes
such. review of his expenditures will be
apt to discover many opportunities for
retrenchment and reform; and then if he
will, he can at once begin to save, and
may acquire economical habits which will
secure his further prosperity.

two years previous to engage in business
She was to marry him at the home of
friend of her mother, with whom she was
staying.
During the time she was making up her
wedding outfit he came to see her one
evening, when he was just drunk enough
to be foolish. She was shocked and panied
beyond measure. She imme diately stopped
preparations, and told him she could not
marry him. He protested that she would
drive him to distraction; promised never
to drink another drop, &c.
ssNo," she said, II dare not trust my
future happiness to a man who has formed
such a habit. I came three thousand

LOVES GLASSES

WHAT HE SAID.
He said: How beautiful my love,
From earth beneath to heavens above!
There's not rock with lichens Drowned,
And not field with sunshine crowned,
And not note all nature through,
From whispering pines to ocean blue
Not even mote which swings in air
Up towardEthe bending heavens there,
That is not beautiful!
WHAT SHE SAID.
There's not a thing the landscape through,
From sands we beat
Beneath our feet
To where the mountains heave in view.
That Is not beautiful;
And all for you!
A scene almost made up of blanks;
Nothing but rocks and sand;
A dull brown waste,
Der which the crow himself makes haste!
And yet, unused, "Perh.ps tits wise
To look abroad through overs eyes,
If they may show that round us lies
Beauty like that Of Paradise"

alarm throughout the entire district, and
especially at Belfast, owing to the fatal
occurrence having happened on the eve OF
the momentous 18th of July. For all that
people could tell, the tragedy might prove
the beginning of wholesale slaughter. The
police, therefore, lost not a moment in set

of inspectors and sub-inspectors hurried to
