HOmesickness.

SO commonplace o disorder as home
sickness has been made the subject OF
scientific investigation. DR.. II. Rey
gives it a high-sounding name, emo
stalgia, " and regards it as a form of in
sanity from which grown men often suf-
fer severely, and of which they some
times die. He gives particulars of his
observations among the French soldiery,
where it is of very frequent occurrence,
more particularly among the infantry
The cavalryman, he thinks, is less liable
to suffer in this way, probably because
he has less leisure time on his hands.
1t is the young foot soldier who is prone
to pine for his native place. The young
conscIipt becomes gloomy and taciturn,
loses his appetite, is fond of solitude,
and often gives way to tears. He suf-
fers from incessant headache and is un-
able to sleep, and after while, unless
he can be aroused and interested in his
surroundings and distracted from his
dreams of home and friends, gradually
becomes the victim of general prostra-
tion, followed by delirium, and some
times by death. DIR. Rey believes that
children do not often suffer in this way,
nor do very old persons; and women are
less liable to it than men.

A Mystery or Perfume,

No one has yet been able to analyze or
demonstrate the essential action of per-
fume. Gas can be weighed but not
scent. The smallest known creatures
the very monads of hfe-can be caught
by microscopic lens and made to de-
liver up the secrets of their organization,
but what it is that emanates from the
paunch of the musk deer that fills a
whole space for years with its penetrat-
ing odor-an odor that an illimitable
number of extraneous substances can
carry off without diminishing it's size
and weight-and what it is that the warm
summer brings to us from the flowers,
no man has yet been able to determine.
So fine, so subtle, SO imponderable, it
has eluded both our delicate weights
and measures and our strongest senses.
If we come to the essence of each odor
we should have made an enormous stride
forward, both in hygiene and chemistry,
and none would profit more than the
medical profession if it could be as con-
clusively demonstrated that such an
odor proceeded from such and such a
cause, as we already know of sulphur,
sulphureted hydrogen. ammonia and the
like.

The Doves MOs0ue.

In the city of Stamboul, the Doves
Mosque, or the Mosque of Bajazet III. ,
has n special charm. The court, entered
by gates elaborately decorated in ara.
befque, is exceedingly beautiful. In
the center is marble fountain under q
canopy and sheltered bv cluster of fine
trees. As You enter the court you hear
the roar OF wings, and for a moment the
air is darkened with the sudden fight of
myriads of doves. These birds, the
offspring OF a pair purchased from q
poor woman by Sultan Bajazet and pre-
sented to the mosque, are as sacred as
was the ibis of old. A grave and rev.
erend fellow with huge turban sits un-
der the cloister and sells grain TO the
faithful and the tickle. The former feed
the doves for charity, the latter for fun.
While the fountain is knee-deep with
swarming birds and the trees clogged
with them and all the caves of the clois-
ter lined, and even the high galleries of
the slender minarets not unvisited by
these feathered dervishes, you throw a
handful of wheat into thecourt, and like
a thunder-oloud the whole tribe swoops
upon you with the rush and roar of a
storm. They crowd one another and
nSdp buSHSO1NSb bOB6bueI anu Bthuu on
their heads in their eagerness to get a
morsel of grain. In moment some
one enters the court, and the birds take
fight, stirring the wind in the cloister
and filling the air with soft, floating
down. A turbaned graybeard near by
sells rosaries and perfumes, and there
is also the fellow at the gate who cries
"Sherbet," and clashes his brazen cups
till they ring like cymbals, and there
are loungers from dawn to dark who
drop in to see the doves of Bajazet
plunge into the court like an avalanche
of dusky, impurpled snow, and wheel
out of it again winged cloud of smoke.
AT the mosque on Fridays there is dis
tribution of bread to dogs, and the
hungry fellows come from all parts of
the city to get their portion.

Mhat an Earthquake is Like.

A correspondent writing TO friend in
Montreal from Caracas, Venezuela, gives
the following additional interesting de-
tails of the late earthquake shocks: We
had, about $40 p. NJ, as lively O shake
as l want to experience. first heard a
loud, rumbling noise, ana then it SEEM
ed as though thousand-ton engine was
rushing over the pavements, and then a
scream like hundred engines run mad,
and then the house began to shake and
the floor began to rise up, and about
that time was in the open yard. There
we're few risings in the floor of the
yard, and all was over so far rs Caracas
was concerned. A few pictures and
mirrors fell to the ground in some Of
the houses; in the cathedral an image or
two fell down-and nothing more. But
the town of Qua, about twelve miles
from here-a beautiful and hourishing
place-was by the same shock entirely
destroyed, and from three hundred to
four hundred lives lost. Our President
has sent money, provisions and troops
to the place, and has done everything
possible to alleviate the sufferings of the
people. His wife, "Nina Belen," and
family rushed into the plaza and had
tents put up, and for many days slept
therein. Thousands of people left town
that day; in fact, all that could; the rest
slept in the Tlaza, some in tents and on
cots, but the majority on the benches
and on the sidewalks, and for few days
the appearance of the city was really ludi-
crous-every park, square, wide street,
or open place was filed with tents, and
the middle of the streets with soldiers
under arms. Mosquerias coffee yard
the one you visited while here-was fill
ed with people-one hundred to one
hundred and fifty-sleeping there night
ly for q week or more, some on the bare
ground and some under tents, and the
tents were wonderful to behold, both
there and in town. Tents, shanties,
gypsy encampments, tents of canvas,
white, striped and speckled, of calico, OF
coffee bags. of old sheets and of paper
anything answered. Finally things be-
came more quiet; we had daily shocks,
but light ones; people began to sleep
in their houses.

watchmakers Abroad aud at Home.

Watchmakers are a people who as a
class do not make much noise in the
world. Their occupation is essentially
sedentary-too much so, if it could be
avoided, and requires an exceptional
amount of attention. Medical students
are known to be extra buoyant, 80 that
they have grown to be too much for
even the London music halls, and most
trades and professions are often brought
to public notice as participants in some
more or less social festivity. Watch
makers in this country have very little
esprit de corps. If they are German
as most of them are-they are Germans
first of all perhaps they are Suabians,
or Odd Fellows, but they are only
watchmakers in business, and incident
ally, and they seldom come together
gregariously. The isolated native watch
maker most generally has his work done
for him vicariously, and has little of the
knowledge or traditions of the craft he
ostensibly belongs to. The whole
brotherhood of watchmakers in Europe,
especially on the continent, live on
another footing. Every second adult is
a matchmaker in Geneva, and the pro-
portion of time men in Besancon, Neu-
chatel, and some other places is so great
that the attraction of craft and the
jealousy of trade lose their power. In
every town in Germany the jewellers
have union for the transaction of trade,
self-protection and social enjoyment.

" We sail today said the captain gay,
As he stepped on board the boat that lay
So high and dry. "Come now, be spry;
Wen land at Jerusalem by and byp
Away they sailed, and each craft they hailed;
While down in the cabin they baied and bailed;
For the sea was rough and they had to luh
And tack, till the captain cried out Enoughl"
They stopped at Peru this jolly crew,
And went to Paris and Timbuctoo
And after a while they found the Nile,
And watched the sports OF the crocodile.
They called on the Shah, and the mighty Gar,
Aud on all the crowned heads near and far;
Shook hands with the Cid-they really did
And lunched on top OF the pyramidl

Yet never soul ~ board was lost
Though the boat be sieve, do not grieve,
They sail on the ocean of (" Make believe"
