Mnhammadan Bows.

In the valuable work of SpiI-dion Cop
cevic on "Ober-Albari I'm seine Liga,
Just published at Leipzig, the author gives
some interesting details on the education
of Mohammedan boys. As might be ex-
pected, the military element predominates,
anG among other things the author tells Us
that in the towns and plains where the
Moslem religion prevails the boys between
10 and 10 years of age form guilds which
hold fetes similar to those of the men, US
ually in the month of March, To obtain
the necessary funds for these committee
is chosen, composed of the lowest and most
impudent of the members. These parade
the streets and roads and importune the
people they meet until they bestow a few
piasters; the Catholics especially are at
tackled, these being known as the coward
ly Slavic rabble." In fact they rarely re
fuse contribution, through fear of being
maltreated. The committee then visit the
houses of their kinsmen and acquaintance,
and compel these also to contribute. As
soon as the necessary sum is obtained, the
fete is opened with feast, followed by
gymnastic games. Prize-fghts are per
formed, and mimic battles fought, il
which stones take the place of fire arms.
After one of the sides has been defeated,
and most of the combatants adorned with
blue eyes and bleeding mouths, the victors
march home with flying colors, shouting 9
horrible war-song, while the vanqr'shed
sink away in shame.

FASHION NOTES

Very little jewelry should be worn with
summer TOILETS
White dresses of soft, erushable wool
are worn more than ever.
Sage green striped tweed is a novelty ia
brio for travelling wear.
Turquoises set in Etrusean gold are the
fashionable jewels this season.
The wide belt and suspended peck
ct are Indispensable for the travelling
outfit.
Cretonne and Vatican fans will take
the precedence of Japanese fans this
summer.
The fashionable dust cloak takes the
form of The ulster or the Mother Hubbard
cloak
A novelty for bonnet strings is the tn
bular ribbon, woven double without any
visible seam.
When summer dress does not fit well i
is best to cover the corsage with pretty
fiehu, crossed on the bosom. =
Dotted and sprigged white and cream
colored muslins trimmed with italian
lace make beautiful and inexpensive sum
mer dresses.
Gay, striped awning cottonades are used
for the SIX irt3 of country dresses, to be WORE

Garfiald's Maxims.

Mr.. Thayer, in his book, From the Log
Cabin to the White House., makes a col
lection of many of these, eloquent and in
structive sentences.
In an address on one occasion, General
Garfield said Il feel profounder rever-
ence for boy than a man. | never meet
ragged boy on the street without feeling
that owe him a salute, for l know not
what possibilities may be buttoned up un-
der the shabby coat"
''The privilege of being young man is
Ia great privilege, and the privilege of
growing up to be an independent man in
middle life is greater"
Whatever you win in life you must con
quer by your own efforts, and then it is
yours, part OF yourself.
Growth is better than permanenee, and
permanent growth is better than all.
eff there is one thing upon this eaIth
that mankind loves and adm;res better
than another, it is brave mana man
who dares to look the devil in the face and
tell him he is a devil.
THE student should study himself his
relation to society, to nature and 10 art,
and above all, in all, and through all these
he should study the relations of himself
society nature and art 10 God, the author
of them all.
''Great IDEAS travel slowly, and for a
time nois9lessly, as the gods whose feet
were shod with wool"
Ideas are the great warriors OF the
world, and war that has no ideas behind
it is simply brutality"
II would rather be defeated than make
capital out of my religion"
'After all, the territory is but the body
of a nation. The people who inhabit its
hills and its valleys are its soul, its spirit,
its life"
For the noblest man that lives there
still remains a conhint.
Come down the glorious steps OF our
our banner Every great record we have
made has been vipdicated with our blood
and with cur truth. 1t sweeps the ground
and it touches the stars"
ct was not one man who killed Abra-
ham Lincoln; it was the embodied spirit of
treason and slavery, inspired with fearful
and despairing hate that struck him down
in the moment of the nations supremest
joy"
when two hundred and fifty thousand
brave spirits passed from the field of honor
through that thin veil to the presence OF
God, and when at last its parting folds ad
mitted the martyr president to the com
pany of the dead heroes of the republic
the nation stood so near the veil that the
whispers of God were heard by the
children of men"

Growth and Weight of Children.

Some interesting studies with reference
to the health and growth of children have
been made by DIR Boulton, of the Samari-
tan hospital, London; and, instead OF TAX
ing the average of large number OF chill
dren measured once, he adopted the plan
or measuring number of children of nor
NAL growth brought up under ordinary
circumstances, many times, thus ascertain
ing their rate of increase. BY this means,
the annual rate of growth was found to
vary between two and three inches for
each child per year DR.. Boulton believes
that when a child varies more than quar-
ter of an inch annually, or when his weight
does not correspond with his weight with
in margin of safety-put at seven pounds
then 1t is safe to conclude the childs diet
is not good, or possibly some disease is
lurking in his system. The curious fact
appears that loss OF weight always precedes
the development of consumption.

Hildanus related an incident Of i xvorna,
who swallowed several pins and passed
them six years afterward; but more re.
markabie instance OF prolonged detention
was recorded by Stephenson, of Detroit
that OF lady aged rs, who last year pass.
ed, after some months symptoms of vesi-
cal irritation, pin which she had swallow
ed while picking her teeth with it in the
year 1S35-forty years previously NJ
Silvy records some years ago the case of a
woman who had a penchaIlt for pins and
needles so strong that she made them, in
fact, part of her daily diet, and after her
death |, 400 or LOO were removed from
various parts of the body
Another case almost as striking has been
recorded by DIR. Gillette, that of girl in
whom, from time to time, needles were
found beneath the skin, which they per
forated and were removed by the fingers
or forceps. Concerning the way in which
they got into her system no information
could be extracted from her.. She was
carefully watched, and in the course of
eighteen months no less than 800 needles
were extracted all being of the same size
The largest number which escaped in a
single day was 81.
A curious phenomenon preceded the es-
cape of each needle. For some hours the
pain was severe, and there was consider
able fever. She then felt sharp pain
like lightning, in the tissues, and on look
ing at the place at which this pain had
been felt, the head of the needle was gen
orally found projecting. The needle in
variably came out head foremost. No
bleeding was oceasioned, and not the least
trace of inflammation followed. The doctor
in attendance extracted 318.
That little weight is to be attached to
the place at which the needle escapes as
proof of their mode of introduction is evil
dent from case recorded by Villars of a
girl who swallowed large number of pins
and needles, and two years afterward, dur
ing period of nine months, two hundred
passed out of the hand, arm, axilla, side of
thorax, abdomen and thigh, all on the left
side. The pins, curiously, escaped more
readily and with less pain than the needles.
Many years ago case was recorded by
DR.. Otto, of Copenhagen, in which four
hundred and ninety-five needles passed
through the side of hysterical girl, who
had probably swallowed them during by
sterical paroxysm; but all these emerged in
the regions below the level of the diaphram,
and were collected in groups, which gave
rise to inf1ammatory swellings of some size.
One of these contained one hundred need
les.
Quite recently DR.. Bigger described be-
fore the socienty of surgery of Dublin a
case in which more than three hundred
needles were removed from the body of a
woman who died in consequence of their
presence. 1t is very remarkable in how
few cases the needles were the cause of
death, and how slight an interference with
function their presence and movement
cause.

Causas Of ShnrtsiPhte6uess.

From the inquiries conducted by Pro
fessor Hermann COIN, of Breslau, for
some sixteen years past, he ventures the
assertion that shortsightcdness is rarely OF
never born with those subject to it, and
almost always is the result of strains sus-
tanned by the eye during study in early
youth Myopia, as this ailment is called, is
said to be of rare occurrence among pupils
of rural or village schools, its frequency
increasing in proportion to the demand
made upon the eye, as in higher schools
and colleges. A better construction OF
school-desks, an improved typography OF
textbooks, and a sufficient lighting Of
class rooms are among the remedies pro
posed for abating this malady.
