Handsome as Caucasian girl'' is the
highest tribute which Turk can pay to
female lovcliness. Beautiful features,
lovely eyes, and a matchless complexion
are the inheritance Of a race with which
the principal nations now inhabiting
Europe are supposed to have a common
origin. In every Caucasian home, wheth-
er rich or poor, the daughters are the real
mistresses of the house, idOlized by the
parents, and kept from every toll which
might impair their personal charms.
They live happy life under the maternal
roof; but all this indulgence ceases as
soon as they marry. Hard work in the
field and household drudgery is the lot of
the Caucasian matron, and soon takes
away the bloom of her youth so much
that generally after one year of married
life she appears mere wreck of her for
mer self The wife of the Caucasian
mountaineer has to do everything-til
the soil, carry water and fuel, tend the
horses and cattle, grind the corn, and pre-
pare the food, besides having to weave
cloth and linen necessar for the members
Of her family, and make their garments
and shoes.

worse. Clifford is reported to be very i'll

BY not even a tremor did Julia Jack
son show what shock she had received,
but when her visitor had gone and she
was safe in the privacy of her own room
the mask was thrown aside, and in the
agony of her now thoroughly aroused
love, she sank on her knees and cried: 10
God, spare him. spare himi Do what thou
wilst with me, but spare my love, my dar-

All night that piteous cry was repeated.
all night Julia jackson suffered, ., how
much. When morning came her mind
was made up. Pride had been strong but
love had at last conquered. Shewould go
to Rome and nurse him back to health
and happiness Let the world say what
they would, she would dare anything for
the man she loved.
Henry Clifford was really i'll, and the
physicians face looked grave. His con
stitution is splendid, but there is some
thing on his mind that is working against
his chances of recovering" And SO he
told Julia when she arrived, There is

sickness with more anxiety than did Julia
jackson. He had been out of his head for
some time before her arrival and it was
piteous te hear him call upon her name
Untiringly she watched and tended him
and at last the doctor uttered the joyous
words that the crisis had passed and that
he would live. A great prayer of thanks
giving went up from Julia. and hers was
the first face he saw when once again his
mind was free.
"Not a word, darling" she said, and like
tired child he closed his eyes and sank
into the first refreshing sleep he had en-
joyed for many days. He awoke much
stronger, and found Julia still by his side
"When you are stronger l will explain
everything" she said, kissing him. Ane
when he had fully regained his strength
she told him all.

She was immovable, however, and he sad

his eyes were full of gathering tears he
bade his faltering farcwells, then closed
the door upon his hopes. A moment later
he opened it, stepped back into the reom,

The stagnant water which has been suf-
fered for years to accumulate and breed
fevers and frogs in the Coliseum at Rome
has been drained off at last. An ancient
sewer, extending from the meta sudans to
the Tber, was discovered, and was con-
nccted with u drain from the Coliseum.
The water was admitted into this ancient
sewer on the Sd of March, and the flood
which filed the basement story of the am
phitheater Of Flavius was gradually drawn
Off In cleansing the sewer there were
found quantity of ancient lamps with
gladiatorial ornamentation, human skulls
and bones of animals. Much of the old
Roman road in the Foro Romano is now
exposed to view, and the ruins of the shops
of the gold and silversmiths are visible.

burEh. .
One morning in the. year 1861 the in
habitants Edinburgh were startled by the
intimation of an occurrence which left
sorrOwful memories, redeemed only by
the influence which it had in helping on
great social reform. During the night a
huge pile of old buildings had given way
anu fallen, burying many of the dwellers
amidst the ruins. Prompt exertiOns were
made to remove the debris and save as
many of the unfortunate sufferers as might
be possible. A large space had been al
most cleared, the workmen had mounted
the ladder to complete some portion of
their dangerous and disagreeable task,
when they heard voice cry: "Heave
ava, chaps; I'm no dead yetr' Over an
archway in the high street is carved the
figure of the little hero. and this motto
marks the spot. Theevent aroused much
sympathy, and called attention at once
to the defective condition of work
mems dwellings in Edinburgh.
A movement was at once started to pro
vide better house accommodations. Pub
lie meetings were held at which men of
influence, who intelligently sympathized
with the scheme, gave addresses; appeals
were made and information wss diffused
through the press. Gradually u capital Of
EN-, 900 was accumulated, land was pur.
chased, and building commenced. In
fifteen years good dwellings have been
provided for well-nigh 10000 individuals
One feature in these modern dwellings for
tho people is especially notable-they are
selfcontained, each family having sepa
rate entrance. The houses are chiefly
the property of the occupants. and have
been acquired by the simple and easy
process of paying a moderate rental
There is still large necessity for mort
accommodation, but the good work is pro
gresslng, and there is hope that the entirs
laboring population Of Edinburgh will b.
better lodged than that of ANY other mod

The Prosperous Farmer's Greed.

The Prosperous Farmers Greed.
We believe in small farms and thorough
cultivation.
That the soil loves to eat as well as the
owner, and ought, therefore, to be well
manured;
In crops which leave the land better
than they found it, making both the farm
and farmer rich at once;
That every farm should own a good
farmer;
That the best fertilizer of any soil is a
spirit of industry, enterprise and intell-
igence-without these lime, gypsum and
guanO will be of little use.
In good fences, good farmhouses, good
orchards, and children enough to gather
the fruit:
In clean kitchen, neat wife in it a
clean cupboard, clean dairy, and clean
conscience; -r-.-t..
That to ask mans advice is not stoop-
ing but may be of much benefit;
That to keep place and everything in
its place saves many step, and is pretty
sure to lead to good tools and keep them
in order:

Courteou. Railway Omcials.

The urbanity of conductors anu other
employees on the railroads contributes ma
terially to the pleasure of travel in the
West and Northwest. Every one is i'm
pressed with their obliging disposition and
civility as contrasted with the impotence
and often rudeness Of the average railway
employee in some older States. In jour-
neying ten thousand miles over the roads
in Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota,
and the vast country west Of the Missouri
River, have everywhere found conduct
OTIS, ticket agents, baggage-men, and brakes
men ready and willing to answer inquiries,
and to contribute every way in their power
to the comfort and pleasure of travellers.
1t is q common thing for the conductors
on the long stretch of the Union Pacific
Railroad to voluntarily seat themselves
near you and point ont the various objects
or interest as the train speeds through Ne
braska, Wyoming, and Utah. This is a
new and pleasant experience to one whose
railroad travel may perhaps have been con-
fined to the Eastern States. Perhaps one
lies in the fact that the railway trains in
the newer States are less crowded, and the
employees have therefore more time to be
accommodating. But there is always time
to be civil, and it is apparent that the
Western roads make point of securing en-
ployees who will be polite to the public.
The Eastern would do well to pattern after
the Western railroads in another matter
that is, in rewarding and promoting faith
full servants without regard to outside in
fluences. Some of these roads frequently
undergo change in the general manage
ment and control, but the rank and file of
the employees are retained in their places
to be promoted as zeal and fidelity entitle
them to it. Not long ago three engineers
on the Peninsula branch of the Chicago
and Northwestern Road, who had been
faithful as engineers, were surprised at
simultaneously receiving their commits
sions as conductors of passenger trains.

kind Western Editorial Correspondence

Let the Mud Dry First,r

Here is capital lesson that may well
be impressed upon the memory of both
young and old: Mr.. Spurgeon, in walking
little way out of London to preach,
chanced to get his pantaloons quite muddy.
A good deacon met him at the door and
desired to get a brush and take off some
of the mud. "Oh, no." said Mr., s., "don't
you see it is wet and if you try to brush it
now you will rub the stain into the cloth |.
Let it dry, when it will come off easy
enough and leave no mark" So, when
men speak evil of us falsely-throw mud
at us-dont be in hurry about brushing
it off. Too great eagerness to rub it off is
apt to rub in. Let it dry; by and by, if
need be, a little effort will remove it.
