PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

When the State Is corrupt, then Inc
laws are most multiplied.
A true woman fears moro than an
army the appearance Of evil
The worst Of villains do not like
TO portray themselves in their true
colors.
The true grandeur Of humanity Is IN
moral elevation, sustained, enlisnteh-
ed and decorated by the intellect OIL
man.
Reflection is q flower of the mind'
giving out wholesome fragrance rev.
erie is the same lower when running
to seed.
There are houses where people are
bright without mistrusting 1t; thera
are others where people are stupid III
spite OF themselves.
DeSpise not any man, anu 90 noo
spurn anything; for there is no man
that hath not his hour, nor is there
anything that hath not its place.
Never conAde your secrets to paper;
it is like throwing stone in the air,
and if you know who throws the
stone, you do not know where it may
fall.
1t is the mark Of generous spirit
to aim at what is lofty, to attempt
what is arduous, and ever keep IN
view what it is utterly impossible
for the most splendid talents TO
accomplish.
If we would have powerful minds
we must think; if we would have
faithful hearts we must love; If we
would have strong muscles we must
labor. These include all that is Valua-
bic in life.

Flowers in Mexico.

Mexico is the greatest Ilower mar
krt in the world. All the year around,
the gardens bring forth brilliant bios
soms--thc fragile, beautiful children
of this tropic zone. All historians
who write of the McXicans rs MeNi-
cans, speak OF their love Of flowers as
one Of their principal characteristics.
Nor is this trait diminished in the
present generation. From the days
before the cruel conquest, all through
that mercilcss time, when the Moxi-
cans bore the heavy yoke under their
violent masters, the Spaniards. they
remained faithful to their love Of flow

Funerals in Japan.

japanese funerals are always con
ductel at sunset, in accordance with a
superstition that is rather beautiful
than otherwise. The procession IS
headed by priests and company Of
musicians, who play upon samisens and
beat tom-toms The ctilin is aWoodel
tub, in which the deceased is sQuatting
as he has lived, with his feet tucked
under him. There is this difference,
however The face of the dead man is
looking toward the north, whereas this
position is religiously avoided by tho
living japanese. Indeed, the points Of
the compass are frequently marked on
the ceilings of sleeping rooms that the
sleeper may arrange his mats so as 10
avoid this unfavorable position. The
wealthy class is buried in earthern jars
instead Of wooden tubs, but the mode
of arrangement is the same

The Whistling Tree,

species of acacia is described as exist
ing, whose scientific appelation, as
well as its popular name, is derived
from a peculiar sound emitted by the
branches when swaycd by The wind.
The Arabic name is Tie "solIa,' or
pipe, and the specific name of gStulo,
also meaning pipe, has been given to
it for the same reason which prompted
the natives to give it its local destna.

whose eggs are deposited in the young
shoots and eXtremities Of the branches.
a sort of gall-lke eXcrescencc about

base Of these Shoots and when the
larva has emerged from this indus, it
leaves a small circular hole, the action

duced by a flute or by blowing any
hollow pipe. When the wind is violent
the noise caused by thousands of these
natural flutes in grove of acacias is
most remarkable. The description
given by Dr. Schweinfurth of these
bladdcr-like gals leaves it uncertain
whether they are true 6 .ll-nuts or
whether they are the secretion of II
species of lac insects. The valuable
Indian lac insect thrives on two or
three species of acacia, while one
variety (the 4. Arabico) also produces
II pod or gall nut, which Is useful for
tanning. In either case, these natural
whistles of the whistling tree would
form valuable article OF commerce if
they could be easily and regularly col
lected and exported.

Old customs! Well, our Children say
Wo Gun got along without them;
But you and I, dear, in our day,
Had other thoughts aboat them.
The dear old habits Of the past
] cannot choose but love them,
And sigh to think the world at last
Had scared so far above them.
We had not, in the years gone by,
The grace that art discovers;
Our lives were calmcr; you and
Were very simple lovers.
And when, our daily duties DER,
We stayed beside the rushes,
The only gems You ever wore
We're bright and blooming hlushcs.
Our rustic way was slow, but yet
Some good there was about it,
. And many ills we now regret
Old habits would have routed.
know our children still can see
The Fifth Commandments beauty
May they obey, as once did we,
From love, and not from duty.
Tho world to-day is far to high
IN wisdom to confess thom,
But well we know, dear, you md I,
For what we have to bless them
Though love was in the hoart Of each,
I trombled to aooost YOU;
Had you required polished speech
think would have lost you.
No doubt our minds Nle slow to gauge
The ways we Oro not hoolms;
But here upon onr nemorys paso
Is very simple reading.
It says the forms Wo still hold fast
We're wire as well rs pleasant
Tie good old customs Of the past
Have lcovened al the present.

HEALTH NOTES.

Sleep is the best medicine in the world.
1t is said by the Medico1 Record that by
following the simple method here given
almost instant relief of ear-ache is afforded:
Put five drops of chloroform on a little
cotton in the bowl of a clay pipe, then
blow the yapor through the stem into the
aching ear.
II appears from the recent investigations
of the New York City Board of Health that
both arsenic and lead have been found in
raw coffee, which had been put through
some process to improve its color. Other
deletcrious substances are also used in col
oring coffee Their use was promptly
stopped by order Of the Board.
A French physician says that distressing
or excessive palpitation Of the heart can
always be arrested by bending the body
double, the head down and the arms hang
ing, so as TO produce a temporary conges-
ton of the upper portion of the body. In
nearly every instance of nervous palpita-
ton the heart resumes its natural function.
1t the movements Of respirationS are ar
rested during this action, the effect is still
more sure and rapid.
A man was suffering from gangrene of
the lungs, with cough. difficulty of breath
ing and fever. The odor Of the breath was
most offensive. The patient was put upon
a mixture containing carbolic acid, but as
no improvement followed, tincture of cuca-
lyptus was substituted for the acid. In two
days after the use of the last prescription
the odor of the breath was much less dis
gushing. and in less than two weeks the
man was discharged cured The beneti-
cent work was attributed to the action Of
the eucalyptus by DR.. Bonamy.

Catering for Women.

The hotel-keeper of to-day is artfj,l He
caters to women for his popularity, and
wherein twenty years ago her comfort was
a secondary consideration, to-day it is stu
diously consulted and placed foremost
Why? Because women travel both alone
and with their husbands much more than
they did formerly, and, quick to perceive
any Difference to their own tastes and con-
venicnce they insist upon going to the
same hotel until they become familiar
habitues 1t is amusing to note the differ
at lodges employed by the managers of
the great city caravansaries. At the most
exclusive hotels in Boston it takes the
shape of beautiful flowers in vases and
jars scattered about the room, and III the

and Atlantic Mo,thly ready to the hand
At New York hotel, facing on Madi-
son square, at lunch, when dessert is
brought on, plate of choice confectionery
is put before you, and while making use of
finger bowl the deft-handed waiter whips
out q sheet of fresh white paper, twists it
with a turn of his hand into cornucopia
empties the bonbOns into it, and presents it
with an Oriental obeisance for upstairs
consumption. There is really cleverness
in this, for it has put 2 stop without vulgar
remonstrance to the practice of women
CartlnG OH 10 their rooms plates loaded with
fruit, cakes, and candies to nibble at be-
tween meals. at another hotel on Madi-
son Square, when a lady is seated in the
dining-room the waiter has ready for her
feet dainty tapestry hassock. No
one but a short woman, who has spent a
portion of her life in sitting on the edges of
chairs, dangling her feet in the air, can fully
appreciate this comfort. At this hotel o
rose or few yiOlcts are always found float
ing in the water of the finger BOWL and
lend it pleasant fragrance. The
proprietor of the hotel on Union
square has awaited himself of the sugges-
tons of his lady guests in improving the
table appurtenances. For example, in
stead of the cruets full of black or white
pepper, generally SO adulterated that a
deluge is required to favor the food. is sub
stituted a tiny and pretty silver mill filled
with the whole pepper corns. Two or
three turns of tho handle and you realize
the delightfulness of pepper in reality. In
place of the customary salts" as they are
called, a small bisque cupid has spring in
his back, which, if you press, causes fine
sprays of salt to fling from the points of
his cunning arrow The fruit at dessert is
put on in the French fashion, dressed with
flowers and leaves, few sufficing and the
effect is most pleasing, as at this season
there is monumental stiffness about q
stack Of oranges, apples and bananas
