MnthRr.WOrshin in India.

prof Monier Williams in the Athenaum
MOther-worship in some form or other
is the popular worship of India. In the
first place, every living mother is ven.
Grated as a kind of deity by her child
rem. Then almost every village has its
own special guardian Mother, called
Mata or Amba, or in the south of India,
Amman.
There are about 14O distinct Mothers
in Guiarat, declared by the Brahmans
to be different forms of Siva's consort.
They are really the representatives Of
ancient local deities (GraH1a deUastas),
worshiped by the inhabitants from
time iInmemOrial. I visited a small
village near Kaira presided over by
Mother worshipped under the name
Khodivar (Mischief), because she Is
supposed when in an amiable mood
to shield from harm. Nor is she I'M
deserving of her name, for she will turn
mischievOus when her temper is ruffled
bv neglect. If an epidemic breaks out
among the villagers, Mother Mischief is
believed to be offended, and must be APP
peased by extraordinary offerings, and
perhaps by blood.
Another Mother in neighbOTing viii
lage is worshipped under the name of
Untai. She has the special function Of
preventing or producing cough in
children. Another, named Berai, pre-
vents cholera; another, called Maraki
(popularly Marka), causes cholera; an
other, Hadakai, controls mad dogs and
prevents hydrophObia; another, Asa
puri, represented by two idols, satisfies
the hopes of wives by giving children.
The offering of goats blood to some of
these Mothers is supposed to be very eff
fectual; the animals are not always
killed. A story is told of a clever
Rindoo doctor who cured a whole viii
lage of influenza by simply assembling
the inhabitants and solemnly letting
loose pair of scape-goats in a neighbor-
ing wood infested by demons.
The power of at least one well-dispOsed
Mother in Cuiarat is asserted in a re-
markable way for the benefit of women
after childbirth. Among a very low
caste set of basket-makers (called Po-
mia), it is the usual practice of wife
to 90 about her work Immediately after
delivery, as if nothing had happened.
The presiding Mata of the tribe is sup
posed to transfer her weakness to her
husband, who takes to his bed and has
to be supported several days with nour-
ishing food.

A Model Iowa Farmer.
ISiobK City Journal.J

A popular and genial gentleman,
Judge Whiting, of Monona County, is
40 longer prominent in politics, but he
largely engaged in what pays better
stock raising. He has over 200 head
If cattle Oh his farm, $40 head of which
re is now feeding for market, and he ex-
poets 30 add between 200 and 800 more
head to his drove this winter.
The home farm of the Judge EN- braces
l,80O acres, about 1900 of which is
under cultivation, which includes 400
acres in tame pasture. Last year he had
7OJ acres in corn, which yielded him
over 40 eco bushels. As the stock he is
feeding consume upwards of 200 bush
els day he will need this and more
too.
Judge Whiting has paid considerable
attention to timber culture, and he is
now Ieaping the benefits of his foresight
in this direction. None of his timber
is Of more than ten years growth, and
yet his own groves ROW supply him
with all his fence posts, timber for or bs,
sheds, ETC., as well as his frewood. 1t is
mostly cottonwood and walnut, and of
the latter he has Is, coo trees. This tim
Der is in belts around fields, and though
he GSGlMdlSS GIlC dCIOttSC dG Only MI ,
being in narrow strips it appears to
cover much more ground than it really
does. A casual observer would be apt
to say that the Judge has at least 200
acres of timber.
Judge Whiting has been in that sec
ton since 1856, but he old not COM
mence farming until 1860. and has
been on his present farm only since
1867.
He raises no grain aside from corn,
except little for home use. Neither
does he make butter for sale. His whole
attention is turned to stock raising,
which he is making a splendid success.
He is now preparing to feed the year
around, as eastern stock raisers do. The
better price such cattle command will
more than pay the increased cost in fit
ting them for market. In summer the
cattle will have the range of his 400
acres of tame pasture in addition to the
daily allowance of corn. He has kept
some hogs, and intends to do more in
this line, but he has been very cautious
about buying swine, fearing he should
get some infected with the cholera.
Sheep he has not kept, but another year
intends to put in a lot of wethers to fat
ten for the mutton market. He finds
that hogs can follow the cattle ard be
kept at little additional expense.

Where Honesty Abounds.

1t may be very difficult to form any
idea of the number and value OF the
articles lost daily in any large city, but
In Paris, at least, it is easy to know what
has been found by honest folk. There
are numerous offices in every quarter o!
the town where anything found should
be deposited. From these places the
articles left in cabs or found in the
streets are taken to q central warehouse
at the Prefecture de Police. According
to the official statistics it would appear
that during the year 1878 there were
nineteen thousand seven hundred and
forty objects of the most heterogeneous
description deposited at the central
warehouse. The central warehouse con-
sists of tive immense halls furnished
with shelves like a paWnbrOker' 8 shop,
on which the articles are arranged after
being carefully catalogued. AS may be
imagined, the number of small objects
is large, but what speaks most in favor
of the honesty of the Parisians Is the
strong room of this establishment, in
which the articles of intrinsic value are
stored. 1t contains numbers of watches,
gold and silver chains, bracelets, lockets,
and money in gold, silver, and notes.
If after the expiration of year the
proprietor Of an article deposited in
this warehouse has not reclaimed his
property, it is returned to the finder.
From one cause or another very large
percentage is not reclaimed, and many
valuable watches, bracelets set with
diamonds, and the like, after lying in
this warehouse for twelve mouths, then
become the legal property of those who
have picked them up in the streets.

A Texas Love Story.
Houston Telegram.I


Twelve years or more ago, back in the
STATES, NJ. Koran and the girl of his
choice were welded, and for a time
lived in the full enjoyment of their bliss.
Anon, however, a cloud began to gather
in their domestic sky, no greater than
speck at first, but with the feeting DAYS
it increased, until the bent-up storm
burst and severed them. Koran was no
rich mans son, educated, blue-blooded
and high-strung, but he was a man for
all that, and he loved his wife with a
love as warm and true as ever loved the
more favored of one kind his chosen
mate in life. But the cup of Joy was
not for him then, and he wandered
away, strolliDg around after devil-may-
care fashion, until the fates brought him
to Texas. Here, as elsewhere, he was q
sorry dog, until two years ago he OBJ
tanned employment on the Columbus
division of the l & G n Road. Find.
ing himself settled, and yearning for the
old days, he put himself in communica-
ton with his wife from whom he had
strayed ten long years before. The
affection of her earlier days she cher
ished still, nor did she hesitate when he
called, but answered quickly; and in
August last the two currents of life
which had drifted apart were once more
Joined. Koran was placed by the COM
pany at Arcola in charge Of section of
the road. With his wife he went to his
duty and discharged it, winning thereyb
the confidence of his employers and the
respect of his colaborers. Thus their
lives sped on peacefully and quietly
until last Wednesday, when the husband
was taken i'll. He paid little heed to the
malady until Thursday night, when he
became worse, attributable perhaps to
the fact that his wife was also similarly
attacked. Neither of them would take
medicine, albeit they grew worse each
day. 1t seemed that they recognized the
inevitable, and were prepared for it.
At ten o'clock Sunday night Mrs. Koran
sank into the slumber from which their
is no awakening, and at ten o'clock Mon
day her husband followed her into the
dreamiess land. A short time previous
to his death he arose from his bed, vent
to her trunk, took out the few trinkets
which she owned, placed them upon her
person, reclined himself upon the couch
beside her, and, kissing the cold face,
dropped into a gentle, peaceful sleep,
from which he never aroused. Two
collins were sent down on the Monday
porning train, and it is a fact that at
the time they left here one of those for
whom they were intended was yet in the
land of the living.

The Good Looks of Young Americans

The Good Looks Of Young Americans.
IG A sala on 7th Regiment Fair in London Telegraph
So we paid our fifty cents, the check
takers being ten privates of the 9TH
Regiment in full uniform, who were
not only imposing examples of the New
York State militiaman, but, also, to my
mind, very favorable specimens of a
type of humanity which, ethnOlOglcally
as well as socially, is coming to the front
in a very conspicuous manner mean
the Young New Yorker. According to
DR.. Geo. NJ. Beard, an American physi-
clan, who has Just published in the
North american ReUjt1O a remarkable
paper on the physique of the two great
sections of the AnglO-SaXOn race, the
type of transatlantic Yirility consists in
" chiselled features, great fneness and
sickness of the hair, delicacy OF the
skin, tapering eXtremities," the whole
attended by chronic and excessive nerV
business. Now this seems to me, when
accompanied by turnover collar OF
large dimensions and a dreamlly up
lifted eye, to constitute what we used to
recognize when we we're young as the
Byronic type; and the number OF
Byronic sets of features that | have
noticed, not only at the fair and at the
opera, but among nearly every class OF
well to do New Workers, is quite aston
ishing. DR.. Beard says that the nervous
ness of the third generation of Germans
who have become American citizens is
fully as remarkable as that of the Anglo
Saxon and Anglo-Irish natives, and that
young men whose parents on both sides
were horn in Germany, exhibit all the
features of the American type as just
set forth. That type is, to me. the
Byronic-I mean the pictorial ByroniC
for people who knew the author Of
"Childe Harold" in the flesh have re-
peatedly warned me that he was not
nearly so comely as he has been repre-
scented to be by the painters and sculp-
tors. l shall sec, it may be, a great
many varying types of manhood before
i leave this country. am going South
and hope to go very far West; but there
need be no beating about the bush, and
paying of fulsOme compliments in say
ing that the young men of New York
are an eminently good looking race.
One reason for this general cOmeliness
may be the abstemiOusness of the mod
ern American.
