Horatia Mere shook her pretty head.
"You see, child" said Uncle Peleg,
taking snuff, "you're on the wrong
platform ever to get peep behind the
curtain. You're an heiress, and you're
tolerably good looking, and have a
way that people like, and therefore the
world puts its best foot forward, 80 far
as you are concerned. If you were
Mrs. Skies, the washerwoman, or
Betty, the orange woman, you'd see
quite different aspect Of things"
Nonsense, Uncle," said Horatia,
still unconvinced. "Be good, darling
old Uncle Peleg, and let me have the
delicious ITionaphe de Gand straw
berries in your south garden border for
my refreshment table. Remember Pm
to sell the Strawberries and cream, and
I want nay table to look the prettiest
in the ROOM"
who do you suppose will buy your
strawberries at the outrageous price
you'll put upon themr" he demanded
sourly.
Every body" Horatia answered
saucily. Come. Uncle Peleg, be gen.
erous and graceful, and say I shall
have them"
Uncle peleg took snuff.
ION one condition you shall have
them"
Horatia clapped her white, rosy
hands.

"Just wait until you hear" said the
old man dryly. you can't have my
fifty quarts of Iriomphe de Gand
strawberries, each one as big as a
pigeons egg, until you have first sold
dozen quarts from door to door"
Horatia opened her brown, wonder
ing eyes, like twin wells of hazel
light.
II, Uncle Peleg?"
"You, neice Heraia! Am I to spec
ify the houses where you are to go?"
"It will be fun," cried Horatia, with
gay laugh. 'T'd just as soon do it
as not"
perhaps it will be fun, perhaps it
WON'T" said Uncle Peleg. "At all
events, want you to get one glimpse,
at least, of life through strawberry
womsn's eyes"
"Am I to be disguised Uncle
Peleg?"
ITO be sure you are. Miss Horatia
Mere would have no difficulty in dis
posing of her wares friendless straw

"All the more delightful--a regular
tdbledu Vivant ~ cried Horatia mer-
lily. "Well, uncle, where am 1 to
go 2"
"I'u write down list of names for
you, that shall be culled out of your
dearest friends-Mrs. Montague, Mrs.
Dysart, Miss Ferrars and the like"
"They will all buy" cried Horatio.
"We'n see," Uncle Peleg said. "Are
you really willing to buy the 7Fi-
onaphe de Gdnds at such a price as
this, Horatia?'
Sat any price," the girl answere
gleefully.
"You don't know how disagreeable
you may find it."

DISEASE AND WORRY.-MediCal men
are beginning 20 make a pathological
estimate Of IVORY" as a factor i'm the
production Of downright acute disease,
and Of those slow, chronic disorders Of
function which chiefly wear out the hu-
man frame. DR.. 1. NJ Granville has a
paper on the subject in the POpltldr
Science Monthly, and indeed, the matter
is worth much more careful attention
and closer analysis in its psychological
and physiological aspects than the doc
tors have so far given it. The imme-
mortal old prOveTb, Care killed a cat"
which is reputed 20 have nine lives), is
true as Gospel, and its common recOgni-
tion shows that h0mely wits have long
long since estimated worry at its proper
value. The analOgies of language bear
the prOverb out, too, for worry and
weary have the same identiccl root.
Worry, as the physicians should never
forget, while it is most obviously and
often the effect of physical disorders, can
be aud is nearly as often thsiI cause.
The state of mind and body in which one
is liable to be easily worried. vexed and
out of temper, is very commonly pre-
ceded By actual veXatiOns, worries, har-
rassments, cares. and solicitudes, which
end by breaking down the nervous sys-
tenn to such a degree as to make worry
their constant, chronic condition. If
medical science can ever attain such a
degree of perfection as to enable US to
take arms against a sea of troubles
and not end them by combating (for
that is impossible with an endless.how-
ing in), but to steel ourselves against
them so as to become measurably in
different to the assault, it will have
achieved half Of the great object of med
icine as a science-the prevention Of dis
ease. Religion and philosophy are both
unequal Co cope with wOrry-let the M.
d. now try their hands at it.-Butti-

Nineveh, her principal city, was probably

was probably for long time under Babylon

about 1878 B. G. Raw linson says, "Fully to
appreciate the Assyrians, we must compare
them with the Egyptians. In art they were
much more developed, their sculptures in their
spirit and progressive character, offering
strong contrast to the stiff and unchanging
conyentionalism of the Egyptians-in religion,
they were more earnest, their language and
alphabet were more advanced, in courage and
the science of war, they were greatly SUI
perior-but in architecture, the Egyptians can
rightly claim the supremacy
