Effects Of Removing Mountain
FOpekts

Attention has long been given to
aeylslng means to limit the ravages
OF these torrents, which ruin the land,
threaten estates. destroy roads, and
sometimes even compromise the ex-
istence of villages. Walls have been
built along the banks to protect them,
CT across the streams to allay the
waters. The most eficsciols means,
however. as yet discovered. has been
to maintain the woods Cd the slopes
OF the mountain. The effect of cut
ting away the trees in promoting the
formation of torrents has not been
doubted by the Inhabitants of noun
famous regiors. and is clearly set
forth by M. Surrell, who says: "Whep
we examine the tracts in the midst OF
which torrents OF recent origin have
been formed, we perceive that they
have In all cases been 6espoiled of
their trees and bushes. II. Oh he
other hand, We examine hills whose
sides have been recently stripped OF
wood, We observe that they IRE cat up
by numerous torrents, which 5aVe
evidently been formed very lately
Here is a remarkable double fact;
wherever there are recent torreI Is
there are no longer forests, and
wherever the ground is cleared these
torrents are formed; and the same
eyes that see the woods fell on the
aeclivity of q mountain, MAJ see
appear there Immediately a multitude
of torrents"
The disastrous consequences of re-
moving the woods from the Alps bgan
to attract attention in the last cen.
fury, and nave been discussed in
many publication and official re-
ports. In 1858 the project of the
of the Lower Alps said in
a report TO the Minister: IF prompt
and energetic. measures are not taken,
it will be almost possible to designate
the precise moment when the French
Alps will become q desert. The
period from 1851 to 1858 will produce
a new diminution Ia the numbe of
the population, 10 1862 the Minis
ter will remark continuous and pro-
gresslve reduction in the number OF
hectares devoted to agriculture; each
gear will aggsavate the evil, and in
a hslf-century France will count
more ruins and one department less. "
The departments OF the Upper and
Lower Alps actually lost thirty thou
sand inhabitants. or one ninth of
their population. between 1851 and
1876. A law for recovering the
mountains with wood, which had
been prepared by N. FORBADE de
director general of the ad-
of the forests, was
adopted by the legislative bodies in
1860, and was put in operation shortly
afterWard. Popular Science Monthly.

A Sunday in a German Village.

The Sunday morning service is the
hest time for seeing the picturesque
costumes of the villagers. Before the
hour of service arrives groups of men,
women and children assemble in the
church-ysrd, the girls having for the
most part no covering to their heads
save such as is afforded by their own
abundant hair tightly plated in coils
round their heads. The elder
women wear a most elaborate head.
dress, composed apparently of broad
silk gibbons. so arranged as to stand
up over the forehead in a sort of tiara,
while down the back the ends hang
in four long b:oad stresmers. All
the women wear, even in the hottest
weather, great cloaks of divers pat
terms and colors, very full and round
and plated round the neck som Gwhat
after the manner of an Elizabetban
ruff. AS each woman wears from
three to five or more thick skirts, and
this cloak over all, the apparent di.

ess rival those of our ladies in the
days OF crinolipe. The men have for
the most part given up their old pea
SAINT costume and adopted the hideous
garments OF civilization, and, appa-
rently conscious Of their want of
picturesqueneso, stink into the back.
ground. Presently the bell begins to
ring, and women and girls stream
into the ground door of the church.
Men and boys are relegsted to the
three rowe of galleries Whico, one
over another, line the walls of the
church to the very ceiling. The bell
steps, the organ begins to play and
the preceptor starts tune, which is
at once taken up by the people who
sing slowly and solemnly one OF their
old German hymns. During the
singing toe minister enters. and as
soon As the hymn Is done reads the
prayers. These consist of few gen.
ersl prs yers. similar 10 those of the
English prsyer-book, with few re-
sponses from the congregation, and
the collect, epistle and gospel for the
day. Then there ia moro singing, |
during which the minister goes ont;
and when the hymn is finished, reap
pears in q different gown, ascends
the pulpit and delivers discourse
which is usually an ampli6cation and |
dilution of the gospel for the cay.
Then another hymn, the benediction,
and then yet sn1ther hymn, during |
the singing OF which the minister
retires, and the people follow his ex-
ample ss they list. The whole service
usually occupisd about an hour tr
less. For the rest Of the day the IA
lives work in the fields. stroll about

and drink bertrand schuapps.-Pfot.

A MEASURE known as the 'Stubbs bill''
which is now law in Ohio, inficts fine
Of not more than $50 for selling or barter
ing intoxicating liquors on Sunday, except
upon the written prescription of a practicing
physician; beer having been legally decided
as not intoxicating; Germans and others
will be able to secure their beer, and it
seems probable that will not be interfered
with provided its sale is not connected with
noisy demonstrations; and music also is not
prohibited. All kinds of theatrical per-
formances, and all kinds of games are pro-
hibited on Sunday, also the sale of liquors
in connection with shows, performances, OF
exhibitions at any time, under penalty not
exceeding 500 and Imprisonment. The
act is especially aimed at Sunday theaters
and other entertainments in tho larger
towns and cities.

The Latest Architectural AgOnies
Newport Or. L. Cor, Boston TRANSCRIPT

Newport Or. L. Cor, Boston TRANSCRIPT.
Some of the new houses building are
very unique, and, as Newport sets the fash
ion, I may mention some of their peculiar
tiles. Low ceilings are now the rage.
Eight feet is the fashionable height for the
first floor, and nine the most allowed. This
is marked change from the twelve and
fourteen foot ceilings heretofore popular.
Windows are square, with minute panes of
glass, and seem to be thrown at the house
to lodge wherever it happens; many open
like easements, and there must
be several sizes of glass in the same
sash. Piazza rails are built high
lid solid, SO that you in reality sit, when
out of doors, III room without roof.
Loopholes filled in o square lattice cause
these piazzas to look very much like for
tresses. The chimneys, built of handsome
brick, are not covered in doors. and the
sides of many a drawing room are entirely
Of brick, with fire place and wooden
brackets or shelves for bric-a- brac. The
color is rich (red cement is used) and the
effect is good. All the new halls are built
large and square, contain fireplaces, and
are furnished like drawing rooms, which
gives very hospitable look to house to
one entering it. Low and rambling is
the present fashion, and there was never
such strife after oddly in house building.
think the Casino, which is a veritable bit
of England, and an example of it's most
peculiar and effective style of architecture,

houses which are uilding.
