Arctic AreadianS.

About $50 years ago thee sTsehuktschi
were distinguished as gallant warri-
ors. The discoveries have gathered
valuable assortment of the arms and
arnior Of that period. Many OF these
implements are preserved among the
families, whose habits are 10 longer
aggressive. Very noticeable are curl
osities, carefully wrought out Of mann
moth ivory and fashioned with re-
markable resemblance TO the cid Roman
panoply. Their spears and bows are
made of whale-bone, wood and ivory
spliced and bound with the sinews of
the reindeer, and showing an advanced
perception of artistic ornamentation
on the part of the makers. One hun
dred and fifty years ago the famous
Russian, Col. Paulovski, commanded an
expedition sent against them from Sibe-
rian settlements. In his first engage
ment with them he was badly worsted.
He subsequently defeated them but
with heavy loss TO his own troops, and
has recorded much such tribute to
their valor as Pyrrhus bestowed upon
the Italion legions which he overTan.
strangely enough, they have 10 COVER
ment, no laws, and almost no religion,
If any. A Russian StarOst is their
nominal ruler, but has neither author
ity nor influence. Very little foreign
clothing is employed by them, their
yestments being almost exclusively of
skin. The nation probably numbers
10000 souls OF whom one-half inhabit
the littoral between Tschaun Bay and
Behring Strait AID the other half
dwell in the interior of the country.
On the whole it is impossible to ina
gine more Areadian race, though no
philosopher has yet expected TO discoV-
er Arcadia so near the North pole. A
people without chiefs and without
criminals, experiencing no difficulty in
the distribution of the product Of their
joint exertiOns in fishing and hunting,
whose sole sign of pride of wealth Or
fancy Is the possession of boat lit
tie larger than ordinary, may well de-
serve the respect they have earned from
Nordenskjold and his party and prove
fitting subjects for further chronological
study.

Oatmeal.

Oatmeal is food of great strength
and nutrition, having claims to be bet
ter known and more widely used than
it is at present. Of much service as Il
BRAN food, it contains phosphorus
enough to keep a man doing an ordi-
nary amount of brain work in good
health and vigor. All medical author
titles unite in the opinion that eateu
with milk, it Is perfect food, and,
having all the requisites for the proper
development of the sya tenn, il is Il pre-
eminently useful TODD for growing
children and the young generally. Oat-
meal requires much cooking to ellec-
tually burst its starch cells, but when
1t is well cooked il will thicken liquid
much more than equal lis weight in
wheaton flour. The OAJs of this coun-
try are superior to those grown on the
Continent and the southern parts of
England, but certainly inferior To the
Scotch. where considerable pains is
taken to cultivate them, and it is need
less to point out that the Scotch are an
example of strong and thoroughly ro-
bust nation, which result is justly set
down as being derived from the pleH-
Uitul Use of oatmeal. DR.. Guthrie has
asserted that his countrymcn have the
largest heads Of any nation in the world
not even the English have such large
heads-which he attributes to the uni
versal use of oatmeal; as universal it
is, being found alike on the tables OF
the rich and on the tables of the poor
in the morning the por-idge and in
the evening the traditional cake. The
two principal ways of cooking oatmeal
are porridge and cake (bannock) which
1 Will describe, and also some other
modes Of cooking, in order to afford an
agreeable variety of dishes. First,
then, we will commence with areceipt
for porridge. To three pints of boil
ing water add level rcaspoontul of
salt and pint Of coarse meal, stirring
while it is being slowly poured in;
continue stirring until the meal Is diff
fused through the water-about eight
or ten minutes. Cover it closely then,
and place it where it Will simne- for
an hour; avoid stirring during tue
whole of that time. Serve hot, with as
little messing as possible, accompanied
with milk, maple syrup or sugar and
cream. TO make oatmeal cake, place

much cold water as VIII form it into Il

PEAR BLIGHT.-The cause of pear
blight and its cure is given by the
Gardeners Monthly as follows: ''It has
been shown by careful microscopic eN-
animation in its earliest stages that the
disease is caused by minute fungus
which develops in the bark and pene-
trates lnwardly, destroying the cell
structure as it proceeds. The fungus
is so small that the distinguished inves-
tigator, DR.. j, Gibbons Hunt, under a
powerful microscope, could not dis
tinguish the species; but this is of no
consequence. This being the cause Of
the disease, the preventive is obvious.
Any one who is in a peighborhood la

washing his trees annually with linz
seed oil. sulphur wash or other things
that will kill fungoid Spore without
injury t. the bark. OF course spores
may get into a crevice where the wash

be some cases where, even though the
trees be washed, there will be disease.
