The Daily Bath.

Yon can procure a bathing-matat any
rubber store. It consists of a circular,
thin rubber sheet, four or five feet in
diameter, with the edge turned up two
inches. This, during the day, has been
folded up and thrown aside. When you
want to battle, spread it out, and you
have a tub four feet in diameter, and
just as good as though the sides were two
feet high. This is all the bath-tub you
need. Perhaps I ought to say that, if it
is not convenient to purchase one of
those at rubber store you can make one
with large piece of oil-cloth, by sewing
pipe into it's edge. OF course you
must have wash-bowl with two or three
quarts of water. Next a pair Of bathing
mittens- simple bags-loosely fitting
your hands These are made of the ends
of WORKOUT crash or Turkish towel, al
though any thick linen will do. Now,
with piece of good soap--it matters lit
tie what kind-you are ready. Make
abundant soapsuds, and go over every
part of the skin. Rub the soap several
times, that every portion of the skin may
be thoroughly covered with the soap
suds. Now, dipping your hands into
the water, rinse off the soap, although,
if it is winter, and the free use of water
chills you, you may apply very little
water, and wipe the soapsuds from your
skin. Indeed, with many persons, it is
an excellent practice to leave certain
portion of the soap on the skin. It will
continue the process Of neutralizing the
oil. [ have myself derived advantage
and satisfaction, during the cold season,
by the free use of soap, with very limit
ed quantities of water

MADEIRA.
A Delightful Health Resort.
from Harper's Magazine.l

From Hafpers Magazine.
The temperature varies from an average
summer heat of 72 degrees to a winter of
80 degrees, giving an annual mean of 66
degrees, which has made it the favorite
resort of consumptive invalids from all
parts of Europe. Whether it is the best
in the world will appear when Tenerife
is considered. 1t is enough to say at
present that the humidity of the Ma
deira winter, due to longer prevalence
of rain, and the excessive discomfort
occasioned at other times by the dry,
noxious and almost insufferable peste, or
east wind, which blows from the coast
of Africa, where it is known as the har-
nadti0,a, and equally dreaded, are not ex-
perienced on the Spanish island, but are,
IN measure, compensated for by the
greater comforts that are at the command
OF the wealthy invalid in Madeira. The
island is easily reached in four or five days
by steamers from England and Portugal.
The English language is spoken as COM
monty as the vernacular, and private
hotels are numerous, where extensive
suits Of apartments, excellent attendance
and the most delicate cetis57aerie are OBJ
talnable. Hammock bearers accustomed
to the business tenderly carry the con-
sumptive for daily exercise, and the num-
Der Of these during the season when the
island is most frequented is not pleas
ant spectacle for the robust and healthy
visitor. At every step are met slowly
passing hammocks with their pale-faced
burdens; but all the hammocks do not
contain invalids. Some are stretched to
their utmost by the portly forms of resi-
dents of the island, who, particularly the
ladies, find this a not uncomfortable, and
in certain cases the only possible, means
of progression.
Besides comfortable hotel, boarding
house and hospital accommodations for
every class, more numerous than on any
other of the islands, there are reading
rooms and promenades open to the sea,
which beguile the hours of the invalid
visitor. Seated under the lofty trees Of
the Praca Academica, watching the cease
less roll of the ocean, breathing the
balmy air of this charming climate, and
soothed by thousand other delightful
influences, mind as well as body at rest,
he accustoms himself to that self-denial
SO difficult amidst the hustle and turmoil
surrounding and tempting him in his
own northern home; and, often forget
ting that he is Ill, he gains that cheerful
ness and animation which sometimes
prelude his complete recovery. Often
the invalid comes hither so late that no
restoration is possible.

Some Japanese Usages.

The sovereign remedy for all ailments
is shampooing, and he who inherits the
trade is blinded in his childhood for the
sake of modesty. Shampooers are in
constant demand; at almost every corner
one is met, feeling his way by the aid Of
a long staff, and blowing the whistle that
designates his avocation. The women
have graceful, modest bearing; in public
never forward. In marriage they shave
the eyebrows and stain the teeth as a
tribute to the husbands honor. In all
towns, except at seaports frequented by
foreigners, the public baths are used by
both sexes in common
Among the better classes great care is
taken in the education OF women, and
time, pains, and patience are expended
upon music. History, romance, and in
structiye facts are impaired by tradition
airy poetry that is sung to the accompa-
niement Of the samisen, an instrument
not unlike the banjo, but with square
body. The vocalization is harsh and
disagreeable.
Crime is speedily and severely re-
buked. The capital punishments are
haru-kiri, beheading, and, for parricide
and the gravest offenses, crucifxlon.
The haru-kiri has been much modified OF
late; it is reserved for state offenders, TO
whom some consideration is due, but
death demanded Ordinarily the execu-
ton takes place in a temple or at the pal
ace of some Daimio, who is ordered to
sJlperintend the ceremony. A friend or
second is selected, who stands by the
offender with drawn sword, the katana
a salver is then offered; the principal, in
which lies the knife for disemboweling,
and as he seizes it the second cleaves oft
his head at blow. This is a humane
modification of the method requiring the
principal to cut into his abdomen before
decapitation. This form, without inter
method of seeking death when over
powered by grief for a lost friend or
patron, or to oppose a sea OF troubles.
Beheading malefactors is done by state
agent, who has distinguished himself in
military life. The victim is bound in
kneeling posture, and the executioner,
standing behind, delivers blow with
the sword that sewers the head. This is
then exposed on crossbeam by the
roadside. In crtcifxion, the culprit is
bound to- cross with thongs, and, after
prescribed time of agonized exposure,
life is tapped with spears The Tokaido,
the great thoroughfare of Japan, is thus
ornamented with trophies of justice to
terrify the ill-disposed and to assure the
upright.
Sword-making is considered an honor
able occupation, and connoiseur Of
blades can identify the handiwork Of a
celebrated maker with the certainty some
of us recognize the painting of an old
master. To fashion clothes, make SAN
dals and household utensils is ignoble
and confined to the etas, a prescribed

The Emperor William as a Lover.

A youth of 19-Prince William, OF
Prussia-entered France with the allied

into her house, and showed them the
precious souvenir, still glittering where

Adventure of a Necklace.

A Frenchman brought to a we'll known
Partisan ieweler diamond necklace
which was recognized as having been
one of his wife's wedding presents.
The Frenchman had with him it's coun-
terpart in paste. and he proposed to sell
the genuine necklace to the jeweler for
$4,000 francs, and let his wife think she
still had the real diamonds. The jewel
er asked for few hours time. He
then called on the wife's grandmother,
who gave him the $4,000 francs for the
husband. The money and the necklace
were handed to the husband, who be-
heved he was receiving the paste dia-
monds. "That is we'll, said the grand
mother ; cher husband will think the
diamonds are false, and will never try to
sell them again" A fewmonths passed,
and the wife, embarrassed by huge
dressmaker's bill, brought the necklace
to the same jeweler to sell. She was,
of course, ignorant Of her husbands
previous action. Chow will you ex.

A New Hampshire Tale of Crime.

The arrest of Charles W. Cook and his
confession of his part in the murder of
Susan Hanson in November, 1874, is the
sensation OF the day at Brookfeld and
the surrounding section. The case,
which is thus re-opened, was notable
one on account of the high standing of
the parties involved and the mystery sur
rounding it. Miss Hanson, who was one
of the most highly-esteemed women in
the town, had been engaged for several
years to Joseph Buzzell, a wealthy farmer,
but few months before the murder he
married another, and Miss Hanson sued
him for breach of promise. On the even
ing before the case was to be tried, as
Miss Hanson was sitting in her kitchen,
a charge of buck-shot was fired through
the window, killing her instantly. Sus-
picion naturally rested on Buzzell, and
ne was tried, but acquitted for lack of
convicting evidence. Last spring several
barns of persons who testified against
BuzzeI were burned by incendiary fires,
and, as suspicion pointed to Cook, who
had worked for Buzzell, he was arrested
Saturday, when he made clean breast,
not only of the arson but also of the
murder of Susan Hanson. He declares
that, while he fred the fatal shot, Buzz
zell was the instigator, that he offered
him $500 for doing it and that he stood
by his side at the window, and, when
Cooks heart failed him, threatened to
kill him If he did not fire. Buzzell and
hiswife have been arrested, and also Jona-
than Sanborn. Chairman of the County
Commissioners, as an accessory. An
interesting legal question arises as to the
disposition OF Buzzell, as, by statute, a
man cannot be tried a second time for
the same offense, and some think he can
be tried only as an accessory to the arson
case. There is also some doubt as to the
course to be taken with Cook, as Buzzeu
cannot be convicted as accessory to the
murder or arson without Cooks turning
States evidence, which would exempt
him from the penalty for murder

Population of Holland.

The population of Holland numbered
upon the 1st of January last 5000, 1877,
of whom l, 1884, Alt are males, as against
3, $40, 529 in 1868, the increase, therefore,
being 229, 1913 in the interval of seven
years. In 1870 the number of births
was 1856, 124, rising gradually to 144, 181
in 1876, while the number Of deaths de-
clined from LA, 234 in 1871 to 80, 676 in
1874, but increased again to 1O4, 479 in
1875. simultaneously with this return
the Dutch Minister of Public Instruction
has published some educational statistics
for 1875, from which it appears that there
were 2,6s8 primary schools, of which 4S9
are schools of a higher degree, being an
increase of twenty-five over the preced-
Ing year. There are, in addition, 1876
private schools in receipt of a subsidy,
and 1914 which do not receive any assist
ance from the state, $50 of which give
education of higher degree. Altogether
Holland has 3,S17 schools, or thirty three
more than in 1874, and of these l, TIA are
schools of higher degree. The staff Of
teachers consisted IN 1876 Of 9,267 mas
tiers and 2,708 mistresses. Mall
