The welded Life of Charlotte
Bronte.

Lucy Hooper in Philadelphia Telegraph.
Since I last arrived in Yorkshire /
have heard il generally asserted that
the brief welded life Of Charlotte
Bronte was by no means the roseato
dream of happiness that her biogra-
piers have described. Mr.. Nicholl APP
pears to have been a harsh, if not posi-
lively unkind husband, and certainly
his actions after the death of his first
wife prove him to- have been an unlov-
ing one. Perhaps it was better So
that early death with the dim eyes
turned to the bleak moors that the dy-
ing woman loved better than the grand
eurs of London or the loneliness Of
Paris. That strange, morbid nature
was not created for happiness. The
last supremest chance that q woman
ever has afforded her~-namely, that OF
conjugal bliss-seems to have failed her.
Fame and glory and the applause of the
world found her Indifferent and unre-
sponsive. She had outlived the sister
whose nature was SO like her own-the
brother that she had idolized in spite
of his shortcomings. What was there
left then to the lonely, unsatisfied
heart, save the one repose that may
never be troubled? Yet to how many
Of us would not her life have appeared
one Of ~unspeakable happiness? To
have written Jane Eyre-to have been
received as one of the greatest authors
Of the day-to have been welcomed as
a sister by Thackeray--to a healthy APP
preciatiye nature such a destiny would
have seemed respondent with the
choicest gifts of heaven.

How People Remember.

DR.. Allen Starr, in Popular Science Monthly.
If, now, we make models of -four
brains, and on the irstmark out the To-
cation of the various areas connected
with the various sensory organs, as de-
termined by the anatomical connection
of the white nerve threads; on the sec
ond mark out the location of the various
areas which Psychologists have shown
to govern various sensory organs; on
the third mark out the various areas
whose disease produces disturbance oil
action in the various sensory organs;
and loss of memories Of perceptions by
those organs; and on the fourth mark
nj the various areas which wither after
diseases of the various sensory organs
we shall find that upon'all four brains the
areas belonging to any n organ COIN
eide. We may, therefore, conclude
that each class of sensations and each
class of memories has its W definite
area of the gray matter on the surface
of the brain. Memories of objects seen
are located in the posterior part in the
occipital region. Memories Of sounds
heard are located in the lower lateral
part in the temporal region. Mem.
cries of motions in the limbs, and of
touch in those limbs, are located side
by side in the central lateral region,
Memories of speech are located in the
frontal region. 1t is, therefore, a mis-
take to speak Of memory as a single
faculty of the mind. It is really an as
semblage Of distinct memories which
we possess, each kind of memory being
as different from the others, both in its
nature and in its location, as are the diff
ferent organs of sense through which
the original perceptions came"

German Matrimonial Exchange

The establishment of a "m~atrionial
exchange" is a late Berlin movement.
It's objecti is the promotion of marriages,
for the patriotic purpose of increasing
the German people. In the marriage
chamber of commerce, single people OF
all ages, and both sexes meet, and those
who fancy each other talk matrimonial
matters over in couples, and agree OF
disagree as the case may be, and nobody
hurt. 1t is a practical proceeding, with
no manner of sentiment In it, but such
parties are generally in earnest, and
mean business. No time is fooled away
in moonshine. The object is wedlock.
and the conversations are directly tc
the purpose, and sometimes couples
join their fortunes upon mutual faith.
sometimes references are given and re-
CURED, and nearly always, if the ear
nest man or woman sticks to it, the re-
suit is a match more or less eligible.
The entrance fee to the chamber is 81 :
30 for Berlinese, and 50 % for proyin-
Gals, which entities them to admission
until their object is attained, OF all
hope is abandoned. All parties con
tract-in case of their marriage through
the agency of the chamber-to pay the
association one per cent. of their annual
income during their welded lives.
This novel chamber of seems
to work well in Germany, and may
serve the patriotic purpose, while il
adds to the general happiness of man

A-nisannointed wife.

"Pipsey Potts" in Arthur's Magazine.
She was sentimental, and yet practi-
cal, and one of the best of managing
housewives. She said to us once:
II did wish Tobias would say to me,
as other kind, married men said to their
wives, that they were glad of the day
that made them one; that their homes
were so happy and SO well kept that
they envied no man, and all these
comfortable things that go so far to
make life blessed and enjoyable, and

Toby saw what / had done he would

In the evening after tea, while he sat
reading, | stole up to his chair, laid my
nand on his shoulder, and said, as /
hurst the note before his face:
See here; what do you think of
this?'
He paused. He took the slip of

The Lively Girls Of Saratoga.

Well, the girls at Saratoga are nota-
bly, bright and vipacious. Perhaps the
intense heat has the same effct on them
that it does on ace-horses-limbering
them for brilliant achievements. They
are less lazy, with all their Incidence,
than they would be at the seashore or
in the mountains. They get up earlier
in the mornings, stay up later nights
and are Hvelier at all times. When
this is true with the thermometer close
to q 100 there must be a special reason.
An able theorizer explains it to me on
the theory that the mineral waters do
it. He asked me what Byron had said

when should q Cow Go Dry.
the Dairy.

From the Dairy.
There is such a thing as burning a
candle at both ends. One may easily
do this in the dairy, and, while the
good, easy man" thinks heis making a
good deal of light at the same cost, sud
denly his candle may go out. This kind
of thing may go on when one milks the
COWS up to the time of calving or
near it, and even encourages it by
feeding it for hat end. But then it
may not. And 1T is the dairyman's
business to know all about it and
not take any general rule for
his guide. There is no rule without a
multitude of exceptions, and these are
as numerous as times, places and cir
cumstances; and, as circumstances alter
cases, so the reply to the question we
have put above depends upon circum-
stances. There are COWS that will not
go dry, but will milk from calf to calf.
Is the dairyman to worry himself and
the COW in useless defiance of her nat
ural habit? BY no means. He must
suit his case to the circumstances, and
reduce the milk yield as much as posi-
BILE by milking once a day perhaps, and
compensate the COW for her extra bur-
den by giving her more feed up to a
safe limit. What this limit may be de-
ponds wholly upon the ability OF the
COW to healthfully digest and dispose of
the food. And no one but the inteli-
gent owner a say what this limit may
be, for 1t will vary, as cows vary, and no
two cows are precisely alike. As long as
the COW is in thriving condition, not
losing flesh or making fat, the limit is
not reached.
But Us d rule, to be contracted and
expanded iudiciously and safely, it
might be said that q cow should be dried
off six weeks before she is due to calve.
That up to- to that time she shonld be
literally fed, in the usual manner; that
~thenceforth her food should be curtailed
or ever changed to dry hay; and if her
condition is reduced somewhat, SO much
the better. 1t will make it safer for her
and the cali. The milking may be
done once a day, or not wholly compile
ted, leaving q little in the udder. We
have even taken a little milk several
times a day from a COW in this condition,
with the effect of rapidly drying the I'D
der. But it is a dangerous thing, and
one to be avoided, to leave any consid-
cradle quantity of milk in a cows udder
at this time.

An English fiockmaster says he pre-
fers to castrate when the lambs are
about a month old, because when treat
ed in this way they become fuller in the
leg and more feshy in the back
as they grow up. This is an Important
consideration, as it gives more valu-
able leg of mutton for roasting or boil
ing, and a fuller, more tender and juicy
saddle. He also keeps his nursing ewes
in rather high condition, ~contending
that fat dams make fat lambs. Thus

The new tax or license bill must act most
severe and oppressively on the poor, or those
of limited means, whether they BIO purchasers
or sellers of everyday needs or the necessa-
ries of life. The new law will deprive many
of their present means of support by small
traders, besides incommoding those they de-
pend on for patronage. The all-absorbing
topic of politicians now is how to relieve tho
people of the burden Of taxation, more
particularly that the most folt by the
laboring classes The result of the new law
for the district must be TO add another
burden to those that should be relieved. as
far as taxation can do it. Tho revenues
should come from those best able to pay, and
not from the poor. The personal tax may be
an odious one, but is nevertheless the most
just and could easily be collected If properly
undertaken. IL is u gross outrage to abolish
that tax because il is so dissgreeable to those
having it to pay and adding 1T TO the trades
and those most unable to bear it. The
reasons given for abolishing the personal tax
are its being dsagreeable and difficult to
collect. If personal property can't stand it.
