New England Churches.

About the year 100, the meeting
houses in New England were plain
wooden structures, in most cases without
steeples. The windows were glazed with
diamond-shaped glass. the walls un-
plastered; and the interior without any
means of heating. Through the storms
of winter the congregation shivered in
the cold during public worship. About
hundred and fifty years ago, in the in
terror of one of these rough edifices
could be seen the families of New Eng
land. The men were dressed in the
fashion of the age. They wore broad
brimmed hats, turned up into three
corners, with loops at the side; long
coats, with large pockets and cuffs, and
without collars the buttons either plated
or pure silver, and of the size of half q
dollar shirts with bosom and wrist ruff
fes, and with gold and silver buckles at
the wrist united by link the neck
cloths Of fine linen, or figured stuff, en-
broidered with the ends hanging loosely.
Small clothes were in fashion, and only
reached to the knee, where they were
ornamented with silver buckles OF large
size the legs were covered with long
gray stockings the boots had broad
tops, with tassels shoes were some
worn, ornamented with straps and silver
buckles. The women had black silk OF
satin bonnets, gowns extremely short
wasted, with tight sleeves, or else very
short sleeves, with an immense frill al
the elbow. The ministers wore large
gowns and powdered wigs.

Juvenile Mortality.

One of the most mysterious phenom-
ena of human existence is the large per
centage of mortality among young chill
dren. A fearful proportion of the deaths
everywhere are those of persons who
have just begun to live. Even when
due allowance is made for faults of nurs-
ing and training, it appears hardly possi-
BILE that any. improvement can offset
the inherited weakness from which SO
many children suffer, and, as yet, science
has taught little concerning those epi-
denies which find the majority of their
victims among the little ones. Still, in
telligent care and favorable surroundings
can do much. The English statistics,
much more full and accurate than those
of our own country, show that in the
rural counties the mortality of children
under five years of age does not exceed,
and often falls below, forty in the thou
sand. In the cities and towns the aver
age is much greater, ranging from about
fifty-nine in the thousand, in Portsmouth,
to over ninety.tive in Birmingham and
Sheffield, and to over one hundred and
three in Liverpool. In nineteen large
towns, containing an aggregate of mil
lion and nearly twenty-four thousand
children, the deaths for year from their
number were a2,25O. This is fearful
number, and no donbt the figures were
increased through causes which might
have been avoided. Still, had every
thing been done, the little victims must
have been counted by myriads. As
things are, it is probable that in very
many cases continued life would not have
been blessing, but the quaint old epi.
taph,
$50 soon was done for,
wonder what was begun for,
will nevertheless suggest itself. - Gnci,,'

Feeding Horses Straw Rats.

In clearing away the de6ris OF fire
at St Louis, it was noticed straw hats
that had been damaged by water and
leather were thrown from the windows
and promptly confiscated by men and
old women, on the street, before they
scarcely had time to reach the ground.
One old man was especially active in
lodging about and collecting mutiiated
and charred straw hats. When asked
what he proposed to do with the hats,
he promptly replied:
81 intend to feed 'em to my horse, OF
course"
Don't you think they win make your
horse sick ?" inquired bystander.
"Of course not Why should straw
hat make a horse sick? Straw doesn't
cease to be straw when it is put into q
bed or hat any more than a plant ceases
to be plant when taken from the
garden and put in flower pot. My
horse will eat straw hats. I've tried him.
Hay and feed are very dear now, and
all I save in feeding my horse is clear
gain"
At this point he discovered several
large broad -brimmed hats floating from
the third-story windows above his head,
and brought the conversation to sud
den close by placing himself in position
to catch them on the fy.-SI Louis he

A Social Fraud.

A subscriber writes to know if it would
be proper for him to speak to lady
that he has never been introduced to.
He says he has met her on the street, 10
places Of business, and at parties for
two years, that he knows all her family
and she knows his, and that she looks
almost as though she wished he would
speak. but he has never been introduced
to her, and dnres not speak. No, you
must not speak to her. You may go
along meeting her every day till Gabriel
blows his trump, and she may look as
familiar as your sister, and yet till some
mutual acquaintancesays 80 Mr.. So-and-
so, this is Miss So-and-so," you can not
speak to her without society will say you
are an impudent thing. She may wish
she knew you, and yet if you speak to
her she would feel it her duty to society
to say {" SIR" and look greatly offended.
and then you would be all broke up. Ii
she should drop her pocketbook, and you
should pick it up and hand it to her, she
would thank you with o smile, but you
would have no right to speak to her next
time you met. II she should meet you
some day and say -" How do you do,
