The Doom Of Turkey.

If we may believe astrological pre-
dictions. the dissolution of the Turkish
empire, at least in Europe, is at hand.
In 1854, at the time of the Russian war
the following was extensively circulated
among the newspaper press. 1t is an
old prediction, and was first published
about the middle Of the fifteenth CEN
tury, A. D. 1450:
In twice wohundred years the Bear
The Crescent shall assail,
But II the Cock and Bull unite
The Bear shall not prevail.
So far so good. The Bear (Russia)
did assail the Crescent Turkey, but
France and England Represented by
the Cock and Bull respectively united
with Turkey, and the Bear was foiled.
But the prophecy continues:
In twenty years from that out,
Let Is am know and fear,
The Cross shall wave, the Crescent wane,
Dissolve and disappear.
This would indicate that the disrup-
tion of the Turkish empire is about to
take place. We have not long to wait
for the ful6llment of the prophecy,
which already bids fair to be realized.

AN ENGLISH "vEILED LADY"
Has She Got Charley Ross?

The excitement and anxiety for the
discovery of the lost Charley Ross has
spread to England, and one Of the jour
mails has an interesting story, as follows:
About a year and half ago a woman
wearing a thick veil, or rather two
wells one over the other so arranged as
to conceal every vestige Of her face,
came to Loughton, quiet little place
in Epping Forest, and took lodgings
there. She had with her pretty little
boy, about seven years old, with light
brown hair. From then until now she
has continued to live at Loughton,
always thickly veiled both indoors and
out, SO that no one in the village seems
ever to have seen her face. Naturally
there have been plenty of conjectures
as to her reasons for concealment,
among others, that she had done some
thing for which she asin fear of being
apprehended. 1t is evident, however,
that form of disguise which could not
fail to draw the attention Of every
passer.by would be very poor help to a
person who wanted to escape from
The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1877-07-12

English detectives. This "veiled lady,"
as she was generally called, appears to
have stated that her husband was
abroad, and that the little boy was her
son. She watched over him with un-
ceasing vigilance, never allowing him
to go out without her, nor to get far
away when they were walking together.
At the same time their relations did
not appear to De specially aftectionate,
nor at all like those of mother and son.
They frequently quarreled, and the
boys threat on these occasions always
was. ''If you do so, I'll tell" There
were minor elements Of mystery in the
story, all pointing to the same desire
for concealment; but what we have
stated above will sufficiently show its
general outline.
Rather more than week ago, we
said before, Mr.. Barnum's offer of re-
ward reached this country. Two days
after the little boy, but not his
'''mother," disappeared from Loughton;
and people who asked what had become
of him were told that he had
gone to America. 1t never seems
to have occurred to anyone,
up to this point, to connect
him with the lost Charley Ross; but
more than one person now wondered,
as bare conjecture, whether he could
possibly be the stolen child. The next
thing was to ask what name the ''veiled
lady" had passed by at her lodgings, and
among the people with whom she nee
essarily had to do; and to the astonish-
ment of the inquiries, they found that
she had all along given the name of
Mrs. Ross! Their theory is that Char
ley Ross, when taken away from his
parents, knew his own name, and could
not be made to forget it; and conse-
quently that the person who passed as
his mother found it necessary to her
safety to take the same. If the child
that has been living at Loughton isreally
Charley Ross, and If, as supposed, he
has been sent to Barnum, we shall
doubtless hear of his arrival before
many days. If, on the contrary, he is
not, the facts of his name, his age, con-
cealment in which he has been kept,
and the consignment of him to America
Immediately upon the offer of Mr.. Bar
NUNS reward, form a series of very
singular condolences.

The Foe of Pain,

The friend of suffering humanity-the
enemy of disease, and the salvation of
the patient brute, is MEXICAN Mus

will not heal, no ache or pain it will
not Danish. For accidents in the fam
lily, such as burns, scalds, sprains, cuts,
etc., it has no rival. 1t has saved
more human lives, and restored more

ness and profit, than all other liniments

SENSITIVE.

Most children are sensitive, and it il
wrong to wantonly wound their feel
ings by censuring them too harshly for
their faults. Time cures great many
things; children outgrow infirmities
and faults, and if right principles of ac
ton and feeling are instilled gently,
constantly, and wisely, the results will
ultimately appear. 1t is mere cruelty
to make the weak points of child q
source of teasing and ridicule, and is
often done in schools and families. a
mental infirmity should be treated as
tenderly as a bodily deformity. A
quick temper. an irritable or timorous
or teasing disposition, requires far
more tact and iudicious management
than any mere physical infirInity.
When growth to maturity, our sensi-
tive children 5ecome-the poets, mus
icians, artists, writers, leaders of their
times. Help them, too, with their
tasks, which to many of them seem
hopeless. Definitions are hard to re-
member; the geography lesson is diff
cult to comprehend and won't stay fix
ed in the mind; history is dull and
dead; arithmetic a hopeless tangle of
figures, and grammar more puzzliug
than any possible conundrum. The
little folks need help; they need cheer
and encouragement, and who should
be so ready, so willing, so able to give
as the parent?

LITTLE THINGS.

Life is a collection of little things.
Happiness is not q huge package OF
merchandise that can be purchased in
bulk at wholesale; il is rather III osaic
formed of little gems, each insignifi-
cant by itself alone, but grouped. com
bined, it becomes attractive and sat
isfying. A pleasant smile, a kindly
greeting, considerate deed, an IN
selfish act, all trifies in themselves, yet
aggregate sum of human happiness
and tranquility that united family
circle would not exchange for million
aires wealth or princes honnrs where
the warm heart and gentle hand is alb
sent.
Little habits creep up apace, until
from an occasional indulgence they
grow up to a ruling power; little ex-
penses, scarcely noticed in the first in
stance, soon consume an alarming
total; little matters unnoticed, disre-
garded and uncared for, finally con-
front US with impossible barriers of &C
cumulated andneglected duties and re-
sponsibilities. In these latter days of
enforced economy, when SO many of
the brightest visions have faded away
into grim realities, it behooves us to
award to little things the earnest at
tention which their Importance de-
pands, remembering always that real
happiness is the aggregate of many lit
tie things.

Particularly if it is intended that they
shall earn their own food.
The stallion selected for a sire should
be as compact as possible. A long belly
and a short back, a yellow eye and a
thick thigh, have been considered pretty
good marks. 1t should be, if possible,
so paired with the mare that the good
points Of each may be preserved, and
the defects, if any exists in either, may
be counteracted by opposite qualities in
the other.
The foal Of a full-blooded dam got by
a Normandy stallion, will generally
prove a more useful and valuable horse
for all practical purposes than any
other cross; and among the valuable
blooded animals Of our country, my OBJ
servation has led me to place in the front
rank, for stamina, speed, endurance
vigor and strength combined, the old

COURTESY TO CHILDREN;

Some wise person suggests as a SOW
ereign remedy for the uncomfortable
ness of what we are won't to call the
awkward age of boys and girls-that
time when they are too large to feel
like children, and not quite sure
enough of themselves to feel like adults
that we should always tIeat the
smallest children with the courtesy and
consideration that we show to grown up
people; and then they will never feel
at loss as to their reception thus
quite escaping the uncomfortable
awkward age" There are few things
more important in the right develope-
ment of a human creature than self
respect. But how is child to learn
to respect itself, If it sees that tits alone
in the sentiment2 that by no one
else it is respected? More harm is,
perhaps, done children by snubbiDg
them than even by weak indulgence.
We have all seen homes where the
slightest expression of child's ideas
on any point under discussion was
greeted with, "Who asked you what
you thought" or with sarcasm, such
as, "Ah, now we shall have the mat
ter settled; Miss Experience is freeing
her mind"
1t is so difficult TO hit tine right
mean, OF course we do not want our
children troublesome to visitor; grown
up people do not want to pause in
their talk to listen to the unconsidered
opinions of thirteen; but what if We
tried the experiment of respectful at
tention for awhile. Would not the
little folks stop talking until they had
something to say, quite as surely if
they saw that their words were listen
ed to with attention, as it they felt that
their voices were but beating air9 At
any rate by being kind and courteous
to them on all occasions, it will not be
to teach them when to talk
and when to hold their tongues.

HORSE BREEDING,

The lesson taught by the war Of the
superiority of blooded horses for cavalry
purposes, should certainly not be neg
lected or forgotten by the people. In
the improvement of our inferior breeds
special attention should be paid in the
selection of mares, as there is great vir-
tue in the old Arabian rule, which at
taches even more importance to the
qualities of the dam than to those of the
sire. Sound, vigorous and good mare:
should always be chosen. The prevail
ing idea that the breeding properties o.
mares should be exercised when they
are old and unfit for service, is erron-
eous and prejudicial.
The proper working season of the
stallion is from the first of April 70 the
first Of August The average period Of
CESSATION in the mare is about eleven
months, varying about two weeks, the
time being about two weeks longer in
bearing male than a female foal. Dur
ing the time of the pregnancy the mare
may be worked or ridden gently, but
should be fed with four quarts of oats
daily, and, if the grass is scanty, should
be fed with meal. In a month after
giving birth to foal she can be worked
or ridden moderately, but great care
should be taken not to overhead her, nor
to keep the foal too long away from her,
particularly if she has a full of milk.
Foals should be taken from the mares
when from five to seven months cid.
During the Winter colts should be
permitted to run at large, and only
housed in bad weather. They should
not be fed much strong grain, as their
eyes and limbs often suffer therefrom,
Ihe same treatment should be observed
the second Winter. In summer they
should be turned to grass. The third
winter they will require more grain,

TOO LATE

, Ii you had come 10 me, my friend,
Only one year ago,
To ask this question / should not
Have answered you with no.
That was a time when knew naught
OF lessons lately learned,
Oftrust betrayed, of hope deferred,
OF love half won, half spurned.
How could know you only sought
To pass an idle hour,
Unmindful how you plucked or dropped
Your once admired flower:
How could l dream your vows were ial'
Since mine were only true:
III am changed at last, I've learned
The lesson taught by you.
Ard now You come again to me
To ask my love, my trust:
The flower you spurned year ago
Has persisted in the dust
Gifts own hopes. When you can raise
That flower to life again,
Then you may hope TO teach once more
My hearts forgotten pain.
And SO, farewell! / do not hold
For you an unkind thought,
Nor yet regret for what has passed,
The lesson that you taught
OF heedlessness, indifference,
COr call it what you will,
Ny woman's heart so sOrely learned,
It heeds the lesson still.

THE STORY OF EyANGELINE /,
REAL LIFE.

The story Of Evangeline is repeated
with wonderful fidelity in all its details
in the experience of young French
girl, a resident of Marseilles. She was
engaged to sailor to whom she was tc
be married On his return from a voyage
to New York. He did not return, and
after year she got berth as steward
nesss assistant ON one Of the Havre
steamers, to come here in search of him
On the passage rich American lady
became interested in her story and re-
solved to help her to find out her lover
In New York she learned that he had
gone to Canada. For months she trav-
eled about the Dominion, sometimes
close on his track and again losing every
clue as to his whereabouts. She re-
turned to New York, and one day
while standing at a Broadway cross
ing waiting her turn to get across
she saw the object Of her search on
the other side. She shrieked his name
and ran into the middle of the street, but
a policeman caught her and saved her
from the wheels of the string ofvehicles
She never again saw the Gabriel she had
so long sought and so nearly found. She
learned then that he had sailed for San
Francisco, and SO went overland to Cali
fornia to meet him. Arrived on the Pa
ciflc coast, she found that her lover had
fallen overheard just outside the Heads
and been drowned. Meanwhile the
body of young man dressed in sailors
clothes was cast ashore on the beach
carried to the Coroner's Office and, not
being identified, was inferred in the
public cemetery. \ water sodden pock
ct book was taken from the dead man
which contained only a few letters
written in French and unaddressed
The girl hearing of this went to the Cor,
oner's Office and found that the letters
were hers. The waves had tardily and
partially recompensed her devoted
search, and she was able to find the grave
of her lover.
