WrinkietI Sirens.
fCallforian For November.

There is something radically
wrong in the present state OF things
which makes the whole upper class
of the female sex--t,e sex least ex-
nosed to toll Or disease-SeGy little
better than the inmates OF Z con
valescent home. Few ladies' are
able to do any real work OF head OF
limb for few days consecutlvely
without breaking down depInrabIS.
The chance of a wett!ng III a shower,
which ought to hurt them no more
than it hurts the roses, is serious
source OF alarm to their friends
This state OF things cannot De RENE
died in Que generation but it will
never be remedied at all by teW
fashionable calisthenics. Perhaps
the hints | propose, or rather the
remedies for wrinkles, may shock
many lady readers, but they are
remedies which will appeal strongly,
if prejudice is not allowed to block
up the way Of approach.
In the first place, the ladies OF
our best society Oil the Pacific coast,
like those of New York, London,
and Paris, do not go to bed early
enough. 1t shoul,! be the habit to
retire at half-past ten, and this, as
habit, is absolutely invaluable to
vicor. freshness, and eyesight. II
YOU do not want this yigor and
freshness and clear eyesight, sit up
until midnight, and your wish will
be gratified. Another typical ie-
male defect, and source of wrinkles,
is eating too little solid food-eating
too much such rubbish as sweets
and pickles, hot cakes, pastry. and
drinking only water OF tea. whereby
q healthful appetite is spoiled.
Nothing like this will force a wo-
man TO the habit Of falling back OH
nervous excitement, for want OF
natural strength. It would be a
great blessing to women if they
were more, as men are, sensible OF
imperious hunger and thirst, and
desire for sleep, and less able to
draw OH their nervous capital when
their daily income Of strenth is eX
hausted,
One of the sad results Of society
sWagger or ostentation is the check
ing Of the arpetitcs Of yonng girls,
and causing them to dUindIe into
what vulgar people consider "gen
teel proportions. The remedy foi
this is to commence at once to treat
! defective table duty not as q femi

ghoul-likc phenomenon. With its
many evils and absurditieS, it may

of supertiuous adipose matter bt
not, on the whole, a pleasanter bur
den than perpetual dyspeptic pain

follows here. Nobody wants ladies

Picayune Of the oath Of October
says: A friend, who writes from
the hill country OF Bossier parish,
La, 10Th October inst, says: "You

to help me with my crop this year,
but have gathered over 900 bushels
Of fine corn, a large quantity of field
peas, and sowed my fall oats. VIII

Jerusalem as a Place of Residence.
ISr. James Gazette. !


Jerusalem seems to be growing
in favor as place Of residence for
foreigners who find their native
countries uncomfortable. The for
eign Jewish population has, accord
ing to Consul Moore, increased con
siderably of late years. That com
munity is now estimated at $4,000,
including native Jews, against TO-
900 in 1873. The right of holding
real property in Turkey, conceded
to foreign subjects by the protocol
in 1868, probably accounts for the
increased immigration. The Ger
man colony at Jerusalem now num-
bers nearly 400 persons; that at
Jaffa about 800. There is a third
German settlement at GOTTA Of
about equal number with the last
mentioned. The settlers are me-
chanics, artificers, carriers and ag-
riculturists, and are fairly pros
porous.
No public works have been ex-
ecuted; yet a harbor of Jaffa, a
good carriage road or tramway from
that town to Jerusalem, and good
roads all over the district are ur-
gently needed. A railway would
not, in Consul Moore's opinion, be,
under present conditions, remuner-
alive, unless as part OF a system of
railways for Syria and Palestine.
4 STRANGE CREATURE.-Near
Chattahoocbe, Fla, there lives an
old negro known to the boatman
as Keiser. He is a farmer and
makes i good living, but has not
slept in q house in number Of
years. In passing at any hour Of
the night parties on the boat can
see his torchlight in the woods. He
has for a long time slept with his
hogs; this he did principally in the
winter season. For some time the
negroes in the neighborhood stole
his cotton, cane, watermelons, ETC.,
and he devised a plan to catch them.
During the months when the fruit
was ripe and in cotton picking sea-
son he sleeps in a hogshead in the
center Of the field. He is strange
creature in this respect but sue
eeeds in making a good living. The
boys often keep him on the boat by
talking to him, until she is well
out in the stream, and then see
him jump overheard and swim for
land.

WAS dedicated Aug. 5lh, according to

count of some of those to whom parts
were assigned not being present. The
sermon was preached by Rev. Mr.. Iowes,
1t was of great magnitude, and was highly
by the large audience who
attcntively listened to it.
Rev Mr.. Farley followed with an address
TO the people. He drew largely from the
Scriptures and gave important instructions
upon general principles of Christian duty.
The remarks made by Rev. Mr.. Colby
were of equal merit and seemed especial
ly adapted 10 the occasion. The dedi-
catory prayer was offered by Rev. Mr..
Forbes. 1t was able and we'll fitted for
the time and place. The entire services
were interspersed with singing, which was
conducted by Prof. G. w. Foster of
Brooklyn, N. Y.
The organ was played by Miss Lena
Foster, daughter Of the professor, and
both were rendered with II degree of
perfection which is equalcd by few, and
by mono. The church was
