urban ueighbor:. The customer Is given

count with the house is kept. A few rooms
are furnished in se21l foreign style, but most
preserve their japanese character, and the
food is almost entirely native.
The "bi of fare" Includes some twenty dill.
fcrent dishes, ranging in price from two to hF
teen cents each, the charges dependDg largely
OF the state Of the ish market. While 20 mesr
is served, fowls arc cooked in number o.!
forms, and all kinds Of liquors can be obtained.
The Matsuda is opened about eight clock iu
the morning, and closed at nine or half past niGe

day and after suoset, when the fifty attendants
are kept very active by the crowds of hungry
and thirsty patrons. 10 the passer by the res

the rows Of lanterns under the caves and the
illumination of the whole bulldog, showing
through the panes of eo;ored glass, present a

From Swamp and MARSH.

From land left saturated by receding floods,
and from pools stagnsting in sunken lots on
the outskirts OF cities, rises vapor preg-
nart with disease. Its name Is miasma, and
it Is laden with the seeds Of fever and ague,
bilious remittents, and other malarial disor-
ders. How to cope successfully with these
destructive maladies is problem solved
more than quarter of 4 century ago by the
discovery Of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which has proved itself an absolute specific
for miasmatic disease Ia every form, its sure
preventive, and superb invigorant and gen.
eral Alternative of disordered conditions OF
the system. Irrefragible evidence to prove
this fact has been accumulatng for years,
and scarcely day passes without some fresh
corroboration of II. Eminent physicians
have, after thorough test, pronounced the
article perfectly ef1cacious and absolutely
pure, and the American people long ago

may be said, country housskeepefs pay

may, within q few years, provide his
household with the entire round of fruits

aud with a profusi"n Of milk, butter,
poultry, animal meats, etc. But II is not
enough to have these good things; it is
necessary to know how TO use them well
and wisely. 1t may be short-sighted to
stint his family in generous living in or
der that his purse may become plethoric,
as it would undeniably be mean to deny
them all they can nationally enjoy OF
books and schools. 1t is not the most ex-
pensive living that is most enjoyable; but
ii is due attention to culinary preparation
and domestic art that we invoke. No
special rules can be laid down in these
matters, for the situation, the tastes and
wants of individual families should be
consulted. We allude to the subject as
to one which has hitherto attracted but
little attention, and which is by no means
the least worthy Of strict regard. In
fact, the way people live has powerful
influence on their elevation or degrade
tion as civilized beings. ! D.

A HUNGARIAN officer recently expert
mented at Pesth with an apparatus de-
signed to enable horse to cross river
without sinking. The officer mounted
his steed on the Buda eide of the Danube,
and actually accomplished the feat of
swimming the river on horseback at its
broadest part, with rapid current running
He kept the horses head up splendidly
while crossing, which occupied about
twenty minutes. The military men pres
ent were pleased with the invention.
