TUFTS Pills are used. In my daily rounds,

THE GREAT SMITH FAMILY.-Disguised the
name may sometimes be, but it is the most
common name throughout all European coun-
tries. 1t does sometimes affect spelling above
the common, and appears as Smyth, Smythe or
De Smythe. 1t also in England assumes a
Latin guise (from terrlrp), and becomes Fer
rier and Ferrars, one of the noble names Of
England, associated also with a tragedy not
noble either in its character or its consequences
In Germany we have the Schmidts; In Italy
the Fabri, Fabricia or Fabbroni In France
the LeFebres or LefevIes. Although most of
the European languages adhere more closely
to the old Northern name, even in Latin we
have volumes in our library by Johannes
Smithus, and we have seen in Italy Giovanni
SMITH. The Spaniard's version of John Smith
is Juan Smithus; the Dntchman adopts it as
Hans Schmidt; the French soften it into Jean
Smeets; the Russian roughens it into Jouloff
Smttowski. John Smith goes into the tea
trade with China, and then he becomes Jahon
Shimmit Among the Icelanders he is
ia Ish9s i a Smiths0n 80 the IuscaToras
Schmittiaveiski; among the Welch we are
told they talk of JihOm Schmidt; in Mex
leo he is written down as Joutlif Smitri;
among the classical ruins of Greece he be-
comes Ion Sinihton; in Turkey he is almost
lost sight OF as Yoe Seef. Philology also as
sures us that those ancient names OF the kings
of Syria, Hadad and Benhadad, are the equiv
alents of our Smith and Smithson, just as the
terms pontih or pontifex point back to the time
when the chief man was he who built bridges
or constructed roads, so, at last, these and the
like terms we have quoted came to be oonsid-
cred the proudest designations of the royal
house; and when the usurper, the founder of
OF another family, seized the throne, he as
sumed the same honored titles associated with
the distinguished benefits conferred on the
country Leisure Hour.

Simpson of South Carolina sweeps grandly
into history as the man who wouldn't swear
twice.
The embryo Whig party is in imminent
danger of being s:rangled at its birth, by an
attempt to swallow the Greenback party.
The country will now have a chance to see
how Democratic Legislature in South Car
ona will conduct itself when on its good be-
havior.
Gen. Banks prefers to wait awhile before
giving his opiuion on the new policy. He
thinks its future depends upon the use which
the Southern people make of the power given
them, and therein agrees with everybody else.
As for the extra session, he thinks it will last
for two or three months at least.
The real intent of the Car will be seen
when he shall fully occupy Bulgaria. Then
his declared purpose to protect the Christian
provinces will be accomplished. If he at
tempts to 60 further and to cross the Balkan
hills into Turkey proper, then he means con-
quest and the complete subjugaton of Tur-
key. When this attempt is made Europe must
decide whether or not she will permit it.
The Chicago Tribune exults, and with rea-
son, over its mammoth issue, twenty pages
of seven columns each, last Sunday. For
the printing of the edition 10S,355 sheets OF
white paper, the size of the weekday issue,
were required. Three perfectiug presses,
one Hoe and two Bullock, were used, their
combined capacity being 1904 sheets an
hour. This evidence of the prosperity OF the
leading paper of Chicago is very gratifying.

Miss JENNIE Collins published letter il

Miss JENNIE Collins published letter in
the Boston papers a few days since, which
was practically an appeal fer help in her good
work of taking care of girls who would gladly
labor, but who find it almost impossible to
obtain employment. Even those who are
employed have to work for very inadequate
wages as will be seen by the following ex-
tract: Twenty-Five cents dozen for making
fancy aprons! 1t takes very smart person
to execute the task in two days. Iknow two
girls who scould make only two dollars and
twenty cents week on boys clothes. A year
ago they received six and seven dollars for the
same work. Others put up medicine, and al
though it requires intelligence and response
bility, they receive only thirty cents day.
In many branches, owing to waits for work
(they usually work by the piece, and the re-
duction from previous years, twenty cents is
the amount CT their days hire"

A CATERPILLAR BIRDS ARE AFRAID Or
pleasant story is told by Sir John Lubbock,
quoting from Wessmann. illustrative OF the
means of protection which some insects pos
sess The caterpillar Of the sphinx moth is
quite as good food for birds as any other insect;
but it is perfectly protected by its uglinsss. Its
face is its fortune, having two great spots on it
which look like eyes when the caterpillar wrig-
giles. In general the insect is suggestive of
small snake, especially when it is frightened so
that it draws back its head and shows its false
eyes to advantage. M Weissmann put one of
these caterpillars into a seed tray where he us
ualy fed sparrows and other small birds. The
first bird that alighted on the edge of the tray,
perceiving the insect, became half paralyzed
with fear. Eight or ten birds joined the first
one, but all stood on the edge of the tray, afraid
to go in. One bird flew into the tray at first,
but on seeing the caterpillar hastily scrambled
out and joined the company ON the edge that
were bobbing their heads up and down, and
looking into the tray as if half terrified After
the caterpillar was removed the birds went into
the tray for seeds as usual

THE students of military school at Con-

THE students of military school at Con-
stantinople sent petition to the Porte de-
nounciDg Midhat's baniskment as unconsti-
tutional, and soliciting his recall. The boys
were marshalled into the school yard and Or
dered to revea, the name of the author of the
petition. One of them, promising youth of
twenty-five, stepped forward and avowed
himself as the author. He was condemned
early in April to receive two hundred blows
on the soles of his feet, and died after one
hundred and five blows had been admins
tered. For denouncng the grand vizier's ex-
lie as unconstitutional, Said Effend, writer
in the Mussarak, is kept prisoner. with a
chain around his body AMI fetters on his feet.
These incidents, which are telegraphed from
Pera to the London Times, show that the
abolition of inhuman modes of punishment,
which has been decreed in hundred impe-
rial firmans, is hollow farce.

ASSISTANT Secretary of State William

in 1929, was promoted to chief clerk in 1852,
and to assistant secretary in 1866. In less
than two years he will have performed fifty
years of continuous service under such states
men as Webster, Clay, Livingstone, McLane,
Everett, Cass, Seward and Fish, and many of
the state papers for which they have received
praises were drafted by him. He is, in fact

The cremation of three living wives of a
distinguished East Indian potentate at the
burning of his dead body has revived the pop
uIar interest of Great Britain in the Suttee,
and the discussion of the ways and means to
render such occurrences forever hereafter i'm
possible has been quite lively. 1t has been
commonly believed that the last signs of the
Suttee were abolished in the early part of this
century, but the practice has fingered on in a
quiet way to the present. Such another
wholesale sacrifice as that of the wives of
Jung Babadoor, of Napaul, will hardly ever
again be permitted to occur.
