FOR NEWLY MARRIED PEOPLE.
An Interesting Talk on Domestic DinicuI.

From the Detroit Free Press. I

After the honeymoon is over, in which
each lives in the seventh heaven of bliss
and is blind to all outward surroundings.
there comes a day when the mere matter
of fact duties begin and thew settle down
to the realities of life. The habits, the
manners and the tempers are things
that neither knows anything about in
the other, and that which is long con-
cealed IN an engagement for months is
quickly revealed in the close relation

that the bachelor or maiden has formed
rasps to rawness the nerves of the other,
and the determinations on either side to
break the other of the fault only chafes

poetical to talk about, or has spent
dreary time, solitary and alone, through
a cheerless winter day in her room at
the boarding house, and is only kept
from downright rebellion by the thought
that when "Charlie" comes home they

Then there is disappointment on both
sides. She thinks he is ''real mean" be-

A Suit i'm Law.

Judge Weston, of Leadville, Col, a
local paper tells us, has just returned
from Mexico, where he was defendant III
peculiar damage suit. Contractors
who had supplied lumber for his mines
there not having paidsstheir employees,
he was sued for the sum due them, 1886.
He had to ride twenty miles to court,
and there the three Judges dismissed
the claim against him. But after he
had returned to his mine an officer
appeared and summoned him again to
court, as the Judges had changed their
minds. Again he rode twenty miles.
The decision was reversed, and the
Judges told him that he could appeal to
higher court upon depositing with
them the 1886 adjudged against him,
and i'll his anger he retorted that he
would be blanked if he would do it, but
that he would deposit the money with
some honest merchant. Thereat the
offended presiding Judge drew a dagger,
but Judge Weston instantly covered the
Court with two revolvers, and while the
three Judges dropped down behind the
bench he walked out. He mounted his

Milk as Food for Children.

Wherever milk is used plentifully,
there the children grow into robust men
and women. Whenever the place is
usurped by tea, we have degeneracy
swift and certain. Dr. Ferguson, who
has devoted large share of his attention
to this subject, has ascertained, from
careful meas urements of numerous fac
tory children, that between Is and IA
years they grow nearly four times as
fast on milk for breakfast and supper as
on tea and coffee "a fact which shows
the benefits of proper diet. No diet is
so suitable for growing children as we'll
cooked oatmeal porPidge and milk. Ow-
ing to its easy digestibllity, 1t is of equal
benefit to invalids, and more especially
dyspeptics, who often regain health and
pick up flesh at q wonderfully rapid rate
on milk, or milk and good bread. Good
as &C WIS milk is for children and invalids,
the milk of the goat IS much better;
and it often happens that persons will
thrive and grow strong on the latter,
who could not digest the former. For
this reason, goats milk is largely pre-,
scribed by the faculty, and would be
more so if it were more plentiful. DIR.
Pye Chavasse says 1.-THE finest, health
lest children are those who for the first
four or five years of their lives are fed
principally upon it.. He also states that
asses milk is more valuable Tor delicate
infants; goats milk for strong ones.-

Boys on the Farm.

A farmer writes EVERY year we
hear the same complaint that farmers
children are eager to get away from the
farm as soon as they can. OF course
the cause of this is that they are not in

wants the chance of little independ-
ence-wants to make little money and
spend it themselves. Now, the way to
interest them in any work is to let them
feel that they are working, in part at
least, for themselves. So, I saw. give
your boy sheep or pig or COW for his
own property, or portion of ground to
cultivate as he sees fit. You will find
that he will care well for the animals
and will cultivate his land successfully.
For he will work with heart as well as
hand, and he will plan how best to
expend his profits. The farmer NAV
say, | cannot afford to do it. | need all
the income from the fam. | cannot
divert a part OF it to be spent at the
pleasure of boy. Then answer your
boy will be immensely proud to spend
what he makes in clothing and caring
for himself, and if he does give himself
a few pleasures, so much the better. He
will acquire the idea that money repre-
sents hard work, and will be learning
how 1t ought and ought not to be spent.
DO not make spiritless drudge of your
boy, and he will not bate his fathers
calling"

How to Make a Bed.

Says the Philade' phia Press. Let
every bed-maker, as soon as all the
covers are spread, turn down the upper
sheet, and all above it, leaving a gener-
GUS margin below the bolster. Sine
people, you know, pull all the covers
straight UP to the top and lay the bolster
upon them, so that when bedtime comes
they must be rearranged at the head.
Boys don't like this way, and perhaps
some other folks don't either. 1t Is the
custom to pile two big, square pillows
OIL the top of the bolster, and then put
on two pillow-shams, and then, some
times, OF perhaps before the pillow
shams, sheet-sham. This is setting a
trap for the unwary. Only a remark
ably careful woman is equal to the task
of getting off all the 'fnery" properly.
Why not almost, if not altogether, abol-
ish shams of all kinds. Why not hon
estly take off the big, square pillows
and supply every bed with a comfortable
bolster to take the place of pillows? If
you like adornment, embroider or deco
rate the slips and sheets themselves
without any make believe. Silk, lace
and the like seem out of place ON a bed,
which should suggest repose. Imagine
big boy with boots on fiinging himself
into the midst of a fairy creation of pink
satin and torchon Let beds be what
they look like, and let them look like
what they are-real resting places.

New York Italians.

"The most of the 10000 italians who
are settled in New York city are laz-
zaroni, that is, poor people who come to
this country because they have nothing
to lose and everything to gain by any
change in the conditions of their ex-
1stence. If an italian has enough to
live on at home he is not likely to come
away, except i'll exceptional cases. Don't
imagine that the lazzaroni are all brig
ands, assassins, or thieves" said an
Overseer to a reporter. ''No, they are
simply very poor people, mostly indus
trious, frugal, simple minded, honest as
their neighbors. and very ignorant.
Most of them who have come over in
the past two years did not bring a penny
into the United States, but they brought
willing hands for work. They are good
laborers, especially for railroad construc-
ton, and are steady i'll their habits, very
seldom getting drunk, and rarely gam
bling, even for the smallest sums. Hay
ing made an agreement to work for q
stipulated price, they stick to it, never
striking for more wages, and they are
content with the simplest and scantiest
food and clothing. They are abomin-
ably cheated by those who control their
labor in a vast number of instances, and
then, sometimes, they rebel, as any men
might, and in the heat of passion do vio-
lent deeds. The contractors generally
employ fOremen over the Italians, and
those foremen ale in league with the
boarding masters to rob them. Some
times, too, the companies or contractors
at least wink at these practices. Here
is an instance. About two thousand
Italians were working on the West Shore
and Buffalo Railroad, between West
Point and Newburgh. The company
gave the contract to man who put his
bills in every month to the company,
and when the italian laborers were paid
the company took ont the amount they
owed for board. [ know men who
worked there for six months, and came
back at the end of that time with only a
five-dollar note, having been robbed Of
ali the rest. One of the men showed
me a wooden pipe which the boarding
master sold to him for five cents, as he
was told at the time of the purchase,
but for which he was charged five dol
lars in his account. And that is but one
illustration of hundreds | could cite.
There is poor fellow standing out there
now, who has brought back with him to
New York, as the sole fruit of whole
years hard labor ON that road, and as
his support for the winter, one five-dol-
lar bill. He was swindled out of all the

The Cure for Intemperance.

But the great and only real cure for
intemperance is the steady elevation Of
the whole community. To keep men
from drinking you must give them some
thing else to do-supply them with bet
ter amusements, with entertainments of
o higher order. You cannot expect
Woodworking men to live without
amusement. Rich people must have
their amusements, their theatres, balls,
clubs, drives, yachts. You cannot re.
quire working people to do without some
sort of recreation. A total-abstmence
lecture will not always attract them, nor
will scientific lecture usually be enough.
Therefore we must furnish them with
every kind of innocent recreation posi-
ble-public garden and common and
music and fireworks in the summer;
libraries and reading and as much
more as can be added. 1 am glad of all
cheap popular entertainments, summer
gardens and museums. [ wish some
rich man would endow geological gar
den in Boston. I wish our theatres might
have good and entertaining plays acted,
and then be opened more freely to the
poor for l am satisfied that you can
never expel low taste but by furnish
ing something little higher. JAMES

HOP PICKING AS A PROFESSION
Tue People Who Gain Money and Health
in Central New York.

The Syracuse Herald says: ''About
nine o'clock in the morning, at the Che
mango Railroad station on the covered
platform, mass of people. all j1mmed
together, were sending forth babel of
confused sounds. To-day begins the
real hop picking season, and these were
hop pickers who were about to go out
into the great fields in Central New
York. Almost every age and station of
life seemed to be represented. In one
corner stood ten year-old girl, holding
the hand OF decrepit, gray-haired old
man. Next to the old man was fellow
with a corner-loafer appearance, who was
laying down precepts to a girl with
brazen features. The grimy countenan-
ces of mechanics and the hard visages
of day laborers of all nationalities min
gled with those of young men who evil
IDENTIFY were not accustomed to hard
labor There were also many pretty
faces of young girls who make hop
picking a sort of holiday. The cos
tunes were as various as the faces. Sun
day clothes, working garments and tat
tered gowns were relieved by an ocea-
sional silk dress set off with much
finery. There were some nice-loOking
people in the crowd. One good-looking
woman had a poodle dog in her arms.
These cannot all be hop-pickers, can
they p asked a reporter of large hop
grower. Yes, they are, he replied. IF
you are surprised now, what would be
your establishment if you visited the
hop field? Many and many young
lady sojourning at Saratoga and Rocka-
way Beach for few weeks has taken q
hired conveyance, left town, and may be
found gathering hops under broilingsuD.
Why, you have no idea how many
really nice people pick hops. We had
d lady come to us with a maid last year.
She wanted to improve her health by
hop-picking, and to make sure that her
courage would not faRS-she made a
regular contract for the customary pay,
so that she would be compelled to work
whether she desired to or not The hop
pickers comprise every class. Many
take their vacation picking hops. They
earn money, have fun and pass healthy
life. If you have the consumption, hire
out to me, and I'll send you back to the
city cured. "In the Waterville district
there are about Is, 900 hop-pickers, and
there must be over so, 900 pickers in this
central portion of the State. Madison,
Oneida and Otsego counties are the
greatest hop districts in N. Y. State, and
the world. At least 500 pickers have
gone from Syracuse lately. About
$500 are ready to start for the hop
fields. Syracuse is the most prolific
place in the State for hop-pickers, and
sends out between 1000 and 5000. If
you do not believe me, look at this crowd
of 800 or 400, and then go over to the
Central Station about one o'clock any
day."

What to Find in Tea.

Lovers of tea will be gratified to learn
that i'll the cup that cheers them they
may, if they are lucky, find the follow
ing agreeable variety: "Soapstone
ground TO powder; clay called terra

ash, and IN many instances lie tea,
which is a substance made to initiate tea
aud composed Of unsOund, exhausted
and rotten leaves, filth, the swcepings of

kinds cemented together with starch or
other adhesive. substance and made into
particles resembling tea" This delec-
table compound being "colored green

| York breakfast tables, as defined by
Judge o German in his learned opinion
denying the suit of the Board of Health
/ for au injunction to prevent its sale.
Judge O'Gorman's decision, if it be q
correct Interpretation of the law, is GER
tainly a striking refutation of the claim
that law is only the perfection of COM
mon sense. The injunction is denied on
the ground that although adulteration is
| proved, it is not proved that the adul-
| teTation rendered the tea injurious to
health. That is, anything may be sold
for tea which is not tea, provided it is
not poison, Then why have laws
against the adulteration OF food at all
The chalk and water we drink for milk
or the turmeric and tallow we eat for
butter can hardly be more injurious to
health, one would think, than decoc-
ton of soapstone, gypsum, sand, rotten
! leaves, sweepings and starch, favored
with Prussian blue. Yet because the
Board of Health were unable to show
that anybody had been poisoned by the
filthy stuff, its conscientious vendors
/ will continue to sell it and snap their
/ fingers at the courts. If this be law, the
sooner the law is changed the better for
tea-drinkers.
The disclosures about the composition
of the so called Ping Suey teas may lead
many consumers of that beverage to
lend a more attentive ear to the warn
ings which prominent English physi-
clans are beginning to launch against
the use of any tea as an habitual drink.
They say it cOlduces to dyspepsia and Il
variety of other unpleasant diseases. On
the other hand, Sir Henry Thompson
having forsworn wine and decided that
neither milk nor water can be safely
drunk by any one who values his in
terual peace, pr0claims that tea is the
only beverage suitable for man. In this
conflict of councillors, lovers of the &C.
.lestial leaf have mt least one safe rule to
follow: that is, to drink no Ping Suey, if
they know it, or, better still, no green
tea at all while Judge O'Gorman's rul-
ing remains unreversed.-NetU York
