The Coming Man in Russia.

The rising man is Ignatieff, who, be yond being trained diplomat, is dis .inctively Russian official after the true Russian heart. Capable ot grand ideas of generous impulses and of enormous selI.sacrifce, his altar contains beyond self only one god, that of an ambition to see his country dictate everything to Europe and perfect willingness that the United States shall dictate every thing to America. He is grand centralizer, and his apparent concessions to England in the late conference and joint actions toward arranging the vexed eastern ques- tion were simply to give the Disraeli. Derby party the rope he felt assured would be used to tie their usefulness and power to floating wreck of misspent op- portunity. In this his judgment bas proved correct. for whatever issue the present difficulty may have England's force as a mentor, guide and arbitrator in the affairs of Europe is weakened past repair.-&.

Improve Your Live StocL. {.

Even on a well-managed farm there is generally room for improvement in the live stock. Horses are sometimes kept until they are old and weak, unable to perform the necessary labor and unfit for sale. Cows are sometimes kept until they are entirely unfit for dairy or for breed ing, but they consume as much proven der as those which are in their prime and able to yield T large supply of milk and strong, healthy calves A great i'm. provement might be made in flock of sheep by culling out from it, at least once A year, all the ews that produce light feeces or an interior staple of wool and supplying thei places with others of superior quality in every way. A great improvement may be made in swine by getting rid of unthriity animals and in. troducing the best breeds which possess the desirable properties of fattening readily, coming 10 maturity, attain early age and paying well for tho food they eat - I,troit Ires Press.

Turks and Christians at Home.

The civilization to which western peo-
 pie in Europe and the United States are
 accustomed from their birth, renders any
 conception of domestic life in Turkey
 difficult, and any authentic description
 of it almost incredible. Fancy eleven
 different races livingtogethcr in common,
 hating each other in common, all the
 worst instincts of human nature con-
 stantly under irritation, and religion
 itself both Christian and Mohammedan,
 turned chiefly to account ts intensity
 the prevalent evils. And over this het- erogeneous mass, comprising nearly as many millions of people as there are in the United States, rules a government, the most despotic which ever maintained a throne in Europe, the most brutal, heartless and depraved which human in- genuity and the contrivances of force have maintained in modern times. This government has two institutions to maintain-an exchequer and seraglio. Taxation and polygamy are the chief features of Turkey. The entire energy of the Ottoman power is devoted to these, and when Russia menaccs their per petuity, Christian Europe is expected, under device known as the treaty of Paris, to arise in their defense. The ex. cuse is equalization of territory among great powers.
 So long as the koran remains the fun damental law of the empire, no improve ment can be hoped for from within. A revolution alone would be equal to the task, ,sand the Christians will not unite sufficiently with the rest of the non- Mus sulman population to bring about rev olution; even if they did, it is extremely doubtful whether a general and desperate rising could succeed without external assistance There is no hope for civiliza- tion or humanity in Turkey except through foreign intervention. The horan orders the Turk to kill the christian if he will not be converted or on the pay ment of tribute, to suffer him to live. No influence inside Turkey can alter this organic principle. The porte has promised to modify its application, but the promises Of the porte are made by diplomats tongues, and are never 
 The power of religion for evil in polit. ical affairs was never more clearly illus. | trated as in the pitable condition of both the Turkish peasantry and the Christians. | 4 dignitary of Islam, speaking in the | pame of the prophet, deals out injustice to his religionists. A patriarch of the | Greek church possesses absolute au- | thority to some extent over the Chris sians, and the one is as great q tyrant and as powerful an oppressor ss the other.

HOusehOld Recipes.

DANDELION CoFFEE.--Good coffee three parts, hard extract of dandelion one part, and chickory one part !; reduce them to coarse powder, mix, and grind together.
 POLISH FOR OLD FURNITURE.-Take of 9S per cent. alcohol one.half pint {; pulverized resin and gum shellec, of each one-fourth ounce let this cut in the alcohol; then add linseed oil one-half pint, and shake well.
 ORANGE PIE.--Grate the yellow rind of one fresh orange, take the juice and pulp of two large oranges; add to them one cupful of sugar and the beaten yolks of three eggs mix one cupful of milk with the whites of the eggs beaten to a stiff froth bake in puff paste.
 OUT.DooR WHITEwAsHING.--Slack lime in the usual way mix handful of flour with cold water, taking care to have no Jumps; then pour on boiling water until it becomes like common starch; pour it, while hot, into the slacked lime; add one pound of whiting and two ounces of powdered borax stir all well together in bucket.
 SLEEPING HINTs.--Sleeping with the mouth open should not make the throat sore. Pass a broad elastic band from the anterior portion of the lower jaw over top of head, and make it sufficiently tight to keep the teeth closed; if the throat continues sore use gargle ci chlorate of potassium (zj), one dram to three ounces of water, three or four times daily. ALMOND CUsTARD CAKE.-One pound of sugar, one-half pound of butter rub bed to cream; five eggs, beaten very light one cup of sweet milk and pound of -four, with two teaspoonfuls anti-dys. peptic baking powder united with it; flavor with lemon; bake in three jelly pans. The custard.--One cupful thick sour cream; two cupfuls granulated sugar ;one pound sweet almonds blanched and chopped fine; flavor with vanilla mix all we'll together and spread between the layers of cake.
 DRESSING FOR LETTUCE SALAD Boil the eggs ten minutes; put the volks on large plate, and rub fine with wooden spoon mix them with one tablespoonful cold water, two tablespoonfuls sweet oil {: add slowly tablespoonful salt, tea spoonful dry mustard, and a teaspoonful granulated sugar; when these are well blended, add very gradually three table. spoonfuls of vinegar; put it in the bot. tom of your salad dish, and place the lettuce in it; but don't stir it, as this would make it wilt and spoil.

Cistcrn Water.

In our climate, where rain is abundant during & considerable portion of the year, the water falling upon the roof oi any house. if properly collected and stored, is ample for the whole supply of the family which that roof shelters. This water ts it falls is ordinarily free from any impurity that can affect it's taste, and from every source of serious fouling, though after long continued drought it iswell to divert and discharge upon the surface of the ground the first ten minutes flow of a shower-so that the impurities of the air, and the dust to the roof may be first removed. After this first dash, lead to the cistern all that follows. Even with this precaution the water will be more agreeable for use if filtered. There are numerous systems for making filters in cisterns, but no other is so simple, nor so durable and satisfactory as the separation of that part of the cistern from which the section pipe leads by wall of brick and cement. il simply necessary to build a wall of brick set on edge (two and half inches thick, so as toinclude about one-guarter of the area of the bottom, sloping it back so as to terminate against the side of the cistern at height of from four to six feet. This wall should be so we'll ce- mented at it's joints that water can only pass through the material of brick, and form strength it form should be slightly bulging. A wall of this sort, measuring say six feet at its base and rising to a height of six fee. at its highest point, will transmit an amount of water sutii- cient to supply the demand of the most constant pumping that any domestic use can require.-Col Waring; Scri6ner for Efus

The Fiend of the Jungle.

The tiger, the tyrant of the Indian jungle, has, as is due, the precedence over his fcebler or less dreaded conge
 ners. Skirting the base of inc Hima- layan range, extending east and west for many hundreds of miles, is tract of land covered with jungle. called the Terai; this is his chosen home. Cradled in the long, ieathery grass of the jungle, he gambols about in his infancy playful as kitten, and usually attains, wnen full grown, the length of nine or nine and halt feet. Wild hogs, deer, and all the larger species of game are his usual prey; but sometimes pair oi tigers will take up their abode within a mile of village, sallying out from their lair every three or four days to pull down bullock or a buffalo, always selecting the fattest. The strength of their mus. cular foresrms is enormous. Capt. Baldwin says: q remember, in Assam, a tiger in the dead of night leaping over fence nearly five feet high, seiziDg one of the largest oxen, and again leaping back, dragging the bullock after him across several fields and over two hedges" In his old age, when his teeth become worn, he not unilequently becomes a man. eater; and such is the devastation he then occasions that whole villages are sometimes deserted, and extensive dis tricts laid waste from dread of these feline scourges. In these disastrous cir cumstauces the advent of an English sportsman with his rife and elephants
 hailed as godsend by the whole neigh borhood. A tiger often, when brought to bay, "spits" exactly like cat. Con- trary to the received opinion, tigers seldom roar; but at night the forests re- sound with the hideous din of their cries, which resemble the caterwaUling of whole squadron of gigantic tom-cats. In making charge the tiger utters a series of short, vicious, coughing growls, as try ing to the nerves as the most terrific rear.-- Chambers Journal.

Interesting Statistics.

Two interesting tables are annexed by Baron Henry de Worms to the fifth edi ton of his work, England's Policy ir the East," only recently published. The first gives the population, trade financial, military, and naval resources of each power concerned in the eastern question. The second presents the various creeds and numbers of each O the nationalities in the Turkish empire Besides the S6,5S6,000 inhabitants 1T Russia, 5, BOA 435 in Austrio- Hungary and 2s,500,000 in Turkey, etc, Monte negro looks strangly insignificant with z population of 190,000. The revenue O this little state is put at 25,000, and it fighting capacity at 26, 900 men, which Ii equivalent to saying that all male Mon tenegrins of full age are soldiers. The Russian debt is given at S1.504 ,000, 900 the Turkish at $1,000 000, 900. The total Russian army he gives as l .7S9 57I men; the Turkish, 629,736; the Ger man, l, ,24S, ,S34; tho French, 1,11S,525 the Austrian. 4,02S; the Italian, S71, S71; the English 655,70S; all of wnicf is, in fact, great congregation.
