Some Turkish Crimes.

An elderly Christian woman earned a
livelihood for her in6rm husband and
numerous family by acting as broker
for the sale of jewels in the harcms of the
wealthiest class Of Mussulmans. One day
she was told to take all the jewels she
had for sale to house where she had oc-
casionally been employed in her calling.
Her husband accompanied her to tie
door Of the harem, and said he would
wait there for her, as he had been in the
habit of doing. After he had stood at the
door several hours, he knocked and three
negresses appeared, and he asked them
to tell his wife to come to him. They
denied that his wife had come to the
house that day and treated him as mad
man. He went home, hoping that she
had, unseen by the black slaves, left the
harem by some other door, and gone to
their own house; but nothing had been
heard Of her there. For several days he
went about the town nquiring for her
without success. At last he happened to
meet in the street the youngest Of the
three negresses whom he had seen at the
Turkish hotse, a girl of Is; she stopped
him saying she was so sorry for him, that
she would tell him the whole truth; and
then she related how her mistress had
taken his wife into room where
there was trap-door opening above a
deep vault and there asked her
to show the jewels she had brought.
They were carefully examined, and placed
on divan. Her mistress then, with the
help Of two other female slaves, pushed
the poor woman into the vault, and closed
the trap door over her. All this the girl
said she had seen; and she added that
they had heard his wife's cries until late
at night, and supposed that she must
then have died from the effects of her
fall. In the morning she continued, the
body was taken out BY small staircase
leading down to the vault from the court
yard, and buried in the garden by the
same back slaves. Armed with this
statement, the husband laid an accusa-
ton against both the Turkish lady and
her two negresses. The tribunal ordered
a domiciliary visit to the house, but
nothing was found that could inculpate
any one. He then applied for the sum
moning Of the young negress to give evil
dence, but she was not summoned. and
no trial took place, the husband of the
lady being high in Office, rich, and influ-
entail, which we're three good reasons for
screening his wife from justice. s@5 The
ewels obtained by this abominable crime
were worth $500, and their different
owners, who had merely intrusted them
to the murdered woman for sale, never
heard more Of them, though it is believed
tibet the president and members of the
tribunal had been requested, not without
compliance, torselect a few Of them for
the use Of their harems. xs%E -

The London correspondent of Harper's
Bazaar says the royal family always bow
to any one who salutes them, and apro-
pos of this an amusing story has been told
us by young New Yorker, who found
himself driving along the pretty country
road leading to Chiswick one summers
evening in company with another Ameri-
can gentleman; the latter, having just
come abroad for the first time, was new
to all English impressions and formalities.
A grand garden party had been given
earlier in the afternoon by the princess OF
Wales. and the guests having all returned
to London, the load was somewhat de-
serted. As Mr.. A. and his friends
bowled along, an open carriage came
down the road toward them, containing
two ladies dressed alike in black and
white silk, with ylolet-a reathed bonnets,
and faces that proclaimed them to be sis
tiers. Mr. A. lifted his hat, and the
ladies smiled most agreeably, and bowed
most politely. ''What pretty women!"
exclaimed his companion. ''You know
them? Who are thcy?' "Only the
princess of Wales and her sister," replied
Mr.. A., .carelcssly. A cloud Of dust,
and next came dog-cart driven
by a stout, handsome gentleman, by
whose side sat the dark haired, good
looking czarowitz; again the same
affablc exchange of salutes. "Wales
and his brothcr-in- law are passing" said
A., in passing. The rolling of more
carziage-wheels announced victoria in
| which sat the pretty young Princess Beat
rice and the marchioness of Lorne; pleas
ant smile and bo* from the latter, rather
naughty glance and brief inclination Of
the head from the former. "Beatrice and
Louise" said A. to his astonishcd
companion who had no time to speak be-
fore the landau of Princess Mary of Teck
appear ed, her stout royal highness smiling,
as usual, with the most winning sweetness
as she returned Mr.. As bow. Even
the two young ladies opposite her bowed
prettily, and the gay looking duke Kent
who came next In T cart with the duke
OF Edinburgh, gave most sweeping re-
turn to Mr.. AS salute. One royal name
after another being uttered to Mr.. As
companion the latter broke out with !;

the dams have been raised on it, often
with little else. Their noses are orna-
mented with rings to prevent them
from exercising their natural
instinct in roofing - for that d.
yersity of food which all gregarious ami
mails require, and which is especially nee
,essary to swine from their omniYorous
habit of seeding: Thus with systems en-
feebled by generations Of artificial feed
ing, is it strange that then an epidemic
does appear, that they sho1ld be carried
off by thousands, and that once in
country filled to its utmost capacity with
ANIMALS, that it should lie latent only
again and again to break out with each
recurring season of conditions favorable
thereto.
The same causes will operate in favor
of mortality in many other directions.

diseases, to lung diseases and to all that
class of disorders incident to gross feed

hereditary by generations of highly arti-

is not strange that disease is constantly
making its appearance and yearly carry

severe present loss to the owner, but plac-
ing him in a condition so that he cannot
easily prevent its recurrence.
There is but one remedy that is plain,
simple and sure as available to counteract
this. We must return to more rational
and simple manner Of breeding, rearing
and feeding. We must give greater d.
versity of food. Must take greater care
that swine are comfortably fixed summer
and winter. They should not be allowed
to ''pile up together" to use we'll know
saying, s'like hogs" They should be kept
in smaller lots, have plenty of shade and
pure water in summer, and a warm but

They should be allowed to root as much
as possible, while young, that they may
get roots and insect food, both of which is
necessary to give them health, or IN lieu
of this something that will stand in its
place should he given them.
So far as summer food is concerned, it
is easily managed. Give them plenty of
| clover. purslain, (portulacca) pig weed,
| red rood (amaranth) and many others Of
the comparatively few plants that swine
naturally eat. These may be easily raised
| and carried to them. Let them root while
they are growing. There IS no farm but
what may be given rotation SO that q
| field may set apart for this purpose each
year for the breeding and growing stock.
Depend more on raising your feeding
stock than in buying for fattening. There
are a variety of ways which rejecting

He Wasn't Smoking.

We head this story of an old resident
of Newmarket the other day, and think
it worth printing: Some forty or fifty
years ago there dwelt here an eccentric
genius called admiral" Caverly, who
was as keen as a razor and always had
his wits about him. One day he went to
Portsmouth on business, and after tran
sacting his affairs, proceeded to enjoy
himself by strolling through the streets

ing that the authorities Of that staid old
town had recently enacted law forbid
ding any smoking in the streets or public
places. Pretty soon along came an officer,
shoulder and said: -r
"Ah, my friend, smoking, ale you!
shall have to arrest and fine you for break
ing the law in regard to smoking on the
public thoroughfare. ~ ; = -,
The "Admiral' had removed the pipe
from his mouth when be saw. the officer
approaching, and nov replied s'he wasn't

stepped down after her badgering, re-

Keeping Stock Healthy.

Animals in wild state like wild, men,
usu lily enjoy uninterrupted good health
until they die. This is undoubtedly for
the reason that their lives are simple and
their diet. uniform. When severe sick
ness does overta* the one or the other,
mortality usually ensues, and if contagion
is rife they die offin great numbers. The
more artificial the condition of life, the
more subject ill the individuals be to
various forms of disease that constantly
grow out of his artificial condition.
Hence solitary animals are not subject to
epidemic or contagious diseases as are
gregarious animals; and in the human
family, when each household is isolated
from others by considerable distances,
the disease attacking such households are
usually of mildcr types than in cities
Here we have the key, without doubt, to
the spread of disease among farm ami
mails, where they are congregated in large
herds or broken up into smaller ones on
every farm, but which, nevertheless, have
access more Or less with each other.
Hence, again, the difficulty of eradicating
virulent disorders once the y appear. For
this reason, and for the additional one
that in animals it is more difficult to de-
fine the disease, and for the reason that
they are dumb, except in the cases where
they are under the care Of a practiced vet
erinariaD.
Thus when disease does make its APP
pearance among farm stock: upon the
first symptoms observed, the individual
should be carefully isolated from the
others, and be treated according to the
best judgement Of the owner until the
services Of veterinary surgeon can be
secured. Fortunately the only severe
malady that Western farmers have ever
had to contend with is Texas fever, easily
guarded against and easily prevented
from spreading; and so.called hog chol-
era, typhoid fever generally undoubted-
ly imported from England, as was pleuro-
pneumonia with the fancy animals yearly
brought over for the improvement Of
stock IN the United States, or the infu-
sion of new blood ii that already here. -
So far as SWINE are concerned, it IS I'M
doubtedly the fact, as rule, that Western
hogs usually die Of too much corn, and
due to the fact that in the West this crop
is so easily and cheaply raised that the
owners Of a farm are tempted to over
stock with hogs, which are fed almost
exclusively on this grain from weaving
time until killing time. The sires and
