THE CLARK THREAD COMPANY RELIEF
SOCIETY.
One of the best and most beneficial or.
CARNATIONS which constitutes part of the
system and care of The Clark Thread Com.
pany for their employees, is the Relief Soci-
ETY.. 1t was organized January %, 1870,
for the purpose of providing fund for the
relief Of those who might, by accident or
sickness, be incapacitated from sustaining
themselves. All the employees of the
company must be members of the Society,
and eacn receives assistance when needed,
from the fund according to the amount
paid in, which must be at least one cent per
week, but no one is permitted to pay in an
amount which would draw, IN case Of sick.
ness, more than half their average weekly
wages. E-ery cent paid in draws seventy.
Eve cents per week. The Clark Thread
Company contributes five dollars per week to
the fund without cessation, but all others
cease their contributions when the unex-
pended balance in the treasury reaches hf-
teen hundred dollars. When the fund is re.
duced to seven hundred dollars, payments
are renewed. The payments into the treas
ury average about nine months in the year.
We hope that this humane and systematic
organization may find many imitators
among the manufacturers of Newark aud
throughout the country, who read this ar.
ticle. The company pays interest at seven
per cent on the money in the treasury, be.
sides their five dollars per week into the
fund. Since its organization one thousand
three hundred and niuety-seven members
have been relieved, and twenty.four deaths
have occurred in the society. The reason
that the receipts for 1874 and 1875 are less
than is usual, is because the fund had
reached the maximum of $1,000, and pay.
ments were stopped. The following very

An Es0uimaux Wedding.
San Francisco MALL


Shortly there entered in perfect
silence cortege drawing dog-sled, in
which was seated the high priest of the
tribe, and more villainous looking
object ! never beheld. He was stripped
to the waist and smeared with oil and
coloring matter in stripes, which gave
him the appearance of Chinese joss;
on his head was tiara of bears claws,
by an enormous polar bears
head. On his shoulders were placed erect
on end two large walrus tusks, fancifully
decorated with strips of red flannel
which had been obtained from The
clothing of a drowned sailor washed
ashore. The lower part of his body
was covered With other skins, over
which were spread number of young
seals all alive and barking; in the right
hand he held spear, which he waved
alOft in theatrical manner, while with
his left he motioned to the bride and
groom to approach him. The whole
concourse arose, and with shouts of
gladness capered around the priests
chariot. This he submitted to for a
space OF ten minutes, and then, impe-
riously waving his spear, commanded
silence. The groom was now directed
to PROSTATE himself upon the earth upon
his back, and the bride directed to
place her right foot upon his throat,
which she did evidently with reluctance.
While in this position the priest in
structed the groom that such was to be
his fate, trodder under foot by men,
should he ever prove untrue to his
plited troth. He was then permitted
to arise, and directed to approach the
old chief, who placed spear at his
breast, telling him it would be his
doom should he prove untrue. He was
next directed to his father, who, pro-
ducing piece of fishing line, informed
him he would choke to death his off
spring should he ever prove unfaithful.
Then, to cap the climax, he was directed
to face the entire tribe, who, brandisbine
their spears, yelled at the top of their
voices vengeance on him in the event
of unfaithfulness. At this juncture
the groom apparently overcome with
emotion dropped to the ground, and
bowling his head to the earth. cried
al will be true," until raised to his
feet by his bride.

Care of the Teeth.

Desirable and beautiful as sound tee tn
are, there is no part of the bodies of
young children that is SO almost univer-
sally neglected by parents. Scarcely one
child in a hundred has regular sound
teeth, and the proportion of those that
are covered to greater or less extent
with an unpleasant looking coating is
equally great. A very little care on the
part of parents would largely obviate
this difficulty, but the misfortune is that
few parents are willing to exercise such
care. And this is especially the case in
America, where dentistry thrives more
vigorously, perhaps, than in any other
country, and all because parents are neg
lectful of their children's teeth. The
regular daily use of the brush, without
any other dentifrice than pure white cas-
tile soap, and the removal of misplaced
tooth or two, would in most instances
not only give pearly whiteness but reg
ularity, both combining to greatly en-
nance beauty, whether in man or woman,
and especially woman.

EMPLOYEES AT THE CENTENNIAL.

EMPLOYEES AT THE CENTENNIAL.
A noticeable feature of The Clark Thread
Company has always been their thought
full and considerate attention to the welfare
and pleasure Of their employees. The Cen.
tennial Exhibition afforded an opportunity
for its practical illustration which should
not pass unnoticed in this article. Desir-
ing to give all their operatives an oppor-
tunity to witness the great Exhibition at
Philadelphia of what the nation had ac-
complished during the first hundred years
of its existence in industry and art, the
company planned and carried to complete
success q monster excursion to Phila'
delphis, which embraced their fifteen
hundred employees, with invited guests,
members of the press, and the mayor
and Common Council OF the City OF New.

when II is known that forty-fve Railroad
coaches were employed for their accommo-
dation, and the cost for transportation, adj

which was afforded the grand army Of

First Impressions OF COnstantinOple.
National REPOSITORY

Beautiful as is STEAMBOAT when viewed
from the steamers deck, with its rising
amphitheater from each side of the
Golden Horn, and each new height
crowned with mosques and miDarets,
with domes and lordly palaces overlook
ing the surrounding complex of houses,
a view of the interior dispels all this
charm. The first and last thing that Of
tends the eye and nostrils of the stranger
is its filth. The filth of the Orient,
which abounds in all its cities, forms a
factor, of which enc has taken no account
while indulsing in dreams of Oriental
phantasy. See it, and large portion of
the poesy disappears. Even Pera, the
city of the foreigners and the seat of all
embassadorial mansions, forms no ex-
ception to the rule. A steep street
leads up to this from the tradesmen's
quarter of Galata, and even this is quite
narrow. A large portion of the district
devasted by confagration in 1870, still
lies in ruins. Constantinople is built
very largely of wood, and is famous for
its frequent carnivals of fire, that seem
to come at stated epochs like CONNER
cial panics, and form, as it were, eras in
the history of the city. 1t is seldom
that the ravages of the fre-fend are
made entirely good again, and thus ruin

Mr.. Tweed's Home Mansion.

lDurieiBn, III Doslou Southu.l
While William NJ. Tweed occupies his
stone quarters in Ludlow Street Jail,
his family dwell in al elegant mansion
at Greenwich. The place Is superb in
its appointments and location. The
estate lies on the Sound, on slope of
land, with about three acres of land
closely shaved and walled in with a
handsome stone fence. The entrance is
through massive iron CRATES, on which
are embossed the monogram T. The
house is castellated, and the tall tower
is conspicuous on the land and on the
sea. The house is occupied by Mrs.
Tweed, married daughter and her hus-
band, and two unmarried girls. The
family retain no special retirement.
They live like any well-to-do household.
The girls are very popular in the neigh
borhood, and are spoken of as being
talented and very noble young women.
They generally attend the Episcopal sell
vice, although they are often seen in the
Congregational Church. The famed
Americas Club House is now hotel.

A WRITER of observation, has this
hint to farmers living near towns and
stations. To see good farming, large
crops, and the best Improvements. one
must get seven or eight miles away from
a railroad, or at least railroad station.
Where there is easy opportunity to reach
the nearest railroad station the average
farmer is pretty sure to visit the town
daily and spend large share of his time
there in bad weather.
INTO saucepan put large lump of
butter and small onion finely chopped,
and when the onion is fried to an amber
color throw in slices of cold boiled pota-
toes, which must be thoroughly stirred
until they are turning brown. At this
moment put in spoonful of finely
chopped parsley, and, as soon as il is
cooked, drain through q colander, 80 that
the potatoes retain the moisture of the
butter and many particles of the parsley.
Thus you may have Lyonnaise potatoes.
SOME idea of the protection that a
sheet of paper may give to q plant may
be had by sitting near a hot fire and
holding q paper between the fire and the
face. When, upon extremely cold
nights, it is feared that the plants near
the glass of the conservatory or windows
of the room may be frost-bitten, news
paper cone placed over each plant will
have considerable power to prevent it.
Paper is an excellent non-conductor, and
radiator az well, 20 that, to use words
more expressive than scientific, the cold
from without will be reflected back from
its surface, and the higher temperature
within the cone will be, in measure,
retained.
