Women Doctors in India.

New York rtlbu1e.
American women doctors can have
fair field and plenty Of favor If
they choose TO go as far as Hindo-
stan for them. The higher caste wo-
meu of India are not permitted the
attentions OF male physicians when
ill, and are Obliged to depend upon
the ministraiions OF wretched old
hays of their own race, who cure by
charms and COMPUTATIONS. A pathetic
story comes to us from England. A
Miss L ilby, missionary from that
country with some Hr.cdical knowl-
edge, was fortunat .ly able to cure
the wife of The Rajah OF Puma OF
dangerous disease. When she was
about to return to England the rance
sent tor her and confined TO her a
piteous message 70 the Queen, which
was written and hidden in locket,
explaining TO her how cruel were the
sutferings Of the women in the In
dian zenanas, and imploring her to
send over women doctors to their
aid. The Queen received the mes
sage and promised TO do something
for their aid; but we suspect it is
from the shrewd American lady doc
Tors that aid will first come.

T. ON the Argosy.
Late one night Mr.. Siddons was
sitting by the fire In the modest FAM

assuming household, served as
dining room or drawing-ro room, as
the ca might be. He W. smok-

a maze and a wonder as he jumped
up and rubbed his sleep laden eyes.
He had hardly time to let the ques-
ton go darting through his brtin,
when the door of the room was flung
open quickly, as by a hasty, tremb-
ling hand, and a female figure rush
ed in. Mr.. Siddons gazed in speech
less establishment, not unmixed with
touch of fear. There before him
stood his wife, her fine hair dishev-
eled, her dress all in disorder, her
face all quivering with strong emo
ton. In bewildered alarm he asked
her what was the mat o., but her
only answer was to throw herself
into his arms and burst into tor
rent of tears. He soothsd her ten
eerly, not knowing what TO think,
and gradually she grew calmer.
Then her words made the mys.ery
plain enough. Instead of going to

A Shocking Sack.

A young lady was once terribly
shocked by her own foolish mistake.
Being sent TO the store in hurry for
some -four, she took what she sup
posed to be a clean FELLOWSHIP from
the bureau drawer. When she
bounded into the store, smiling like
a basket of chips, she handed the
thing to be filled with -four. The
Storekeeper didn't notice what he
had hold of until scoop full OF
flour had gone through them, when
he raised them up and discovered
two outlets at the bottom, nicely
frlnged. The young lady quickly
"lit tut" without saying a word, and
the storckee pr, covered with -four
laid the garment in the money draw
or to wait her return, which has no.

by the hand the mountaineer said:

THE LOSS OF THE JEANETTE.

"Has it paid2" is the question con-
corning the last Polar expedition
which comes to the mind of every
person with the news of the loss OF
the Jeanette. The fate of the
stauuch steamer make irresistible the
conclusion that the vessel Is not
built which can withstand the pres
sure of the ice packs Of the Arctic
seas. Any other vessel now at1oat
would have been crushed, If subject
ed to the same pressure as that which
destroyed the Jsannett about 800
miles off the CO st OF Asia last j une.
The vessel reached the latitude of II
degrees, and is not Iifely o have
effected any remarkable discoveries
after leaving Wrangell Land. Capt.
belong and Engineer Melville have
each conducted boat in safety from
the wreck to the mouth of the Lena
river, distance of about 500 miles,
saving the lives of twenty six per-
sons. 1t is believed, also, thai u
third boat will bring, or has already
brought, the other shipwrecked ex-
plorers safely to land. But it will
be a renal kable escape. The ex
treme peril of Polar explorations
was never more forcibly impressed
upon the minds of the people than
at the present tiu.e. Considering
what has been achieved, what has
been risked, and what has been lost,
most people will decide that the
Jeanette expedition has not paid.
But it is useless to urge that the
attempt to discover the North Pole
be abaudond. There is u fascination
about the Polar problem which will
continue to prove irresistible to
some daring spirits in each genera
ton until the great mystery is solved.
The most that can reasonably be
asked is that science may be made
to contribute the best OF its resources
to the more complete equipment OF
future Polar expeditions. Telegraph
must furnish better facilities to ex-
plorers. Captain DeLnng and his
companions reached the mouth of
the Lena September 10Th, but the
news had to travel 1000 miles by
post to Irkoutsk before being tele
grsphed to St. Petersburg, 2,820
miles from Irkcutsh. 1t would be of
great advantage to Polar expeditions
to have telegraphic communication
directly from the Arctic coasts. I'm
proyements in the construction and
equipments of exploring vessels must
also be made, and perhaps Com
mander Cheyne's scheme to employ
balloons in reaching the Pole must
be adopted. The story of Captain
Belongs ha,dships and almost mi
rac'lous escape viii but excite in
other breasts a desire to searcn for
the No. tn Pole, and we must be con-
tent II only future expeditions are
equipped as completely as possible
to prevent the loss of life.
