half an hour later. Cleveland, Ohio, is
said to have felt the shock. Baltimore
reports no earthquake, but small towns a
few miles inland felt the shock. No par
ticular damage was done except to very
thoroughly scare the people. At Long

In paper read before the National
Academy Of Science, at New Haven,
Prof. A. G. Graham Bell declared that
something striking is going on among
deaf mutes. He quoted reports of vari-
Gus asyl1ms and institutions for that class
showing that e!ghty-two cases out of one
hundred deaf mutes were married to deaf
mutes. Tie total number of deaf mutcs
in the United States he gave as thirty
four thousand, or one out of every one
thousand five hundred Of its population.
These reports did not give the information
whether these marriages were in each
case between persons congentically deaf,
those made 50 by disease, or between one
Of each kind. But the fact of such in
termarrlage is state of things that is
tending to create a new variety of the
human race, as is shown by the great in
crease Of the class in question during the
lest quarter Of a century. The fact is at
tracing scientific attention from many
sources, and will before long be a subject
OF legislation i'll the United States.

A cargo of skeletons has been re-
Ceived received by fertilizer estab-
lShment in Philadelphia from Texas
1t was an interesting load on account of
the fact that the bones represented such
a variety of animals and had so many
complete skeletons, but a special inter-
est of a rather loathsome and horrible
sort centers in the circumstance that
among the skeletons of the animals are
many of that most interesting
of animals-man. In the 522 tons
of bones which the New Haven
schooner brought from Galveston,
it is estimated there were at least
half million animals represent
ed. The wild animals furnished the
greater share, indicating, as did other
evidences, that the collectionwas mostly
made Oh the broad plains and prairies of
that State. There were carcasses of
buffalo by the hundred; elks, with their
fine antlers and sometimes the head,
which were taken off as ornaments;
thousands of deer of all sizes, antelope,
horses, cows, goats, sheep, panthers,
various small animals, alligators from
the bayous, and even the skeletons of
snakes. The bones were white from
long exposure to the sun. Some had
evidently persisted in prairie fires. and
their skeletons were partly charred.
More had no doubt persisted from hun
ger, want of water and similar causes,
and some had been shot. The men on
board the schooner say the human
skeletons were numerous, and the boil
ers and grinders at the bone-mill
laughed and said: There were always
some of them, but that didn't matter"
Some of the human skeletons were in
tact, skull and all, but most of these
were broken during the loading and
unloading. There were a few skeletons
shat were recognized as women. Por-
tions of one skull and other parts of
skeletons were shattered as if by bull
lets, and no doubt there were on board
and are now being made into bone dust
evidences of manslaughter, murder,
and desperate deeds of border rufian-
ism.-B0StOR transcript.

A Persian Spoon.

A sherbet spoon is from one to two
feet in length the bowl, cut from a
solid block, holds from a elaret glass
to a tumbler of the liquid. This bowl
is so thin as to be semi-transparent, and
is frequently ornamented with an in
scription, the letters of which are III
high relief. TO retain their semi-trans-
parency each letter is undercut, so that,
although standing up an eighth of an
inch from the surface of the bowl, vet
the whole is of the same light and deli
cate texture, nOpart thicker than anoth-
er. One-half of the surface of the spoon
bowl is covered by two cleyerly applied
pieces of carved wood, which appear to
be carved from one block But this is
not the case-they are really cemented
there. These pieces are carved in such
delicate manner as to be almost tilmv
in appearance, resembling fine lace
work. The handle of the spoOn-at
times twenty inches long-is formed in
a separate piece, and inserted into the
edge of the bowl in groove cut TO re-
ceive it. This handle is also deliberately
carved in delicate tracery, and a won
derful effect is produced by the rhom-
uilNllt, III lllIlcS lOul luCltS
broad at the widest part and only
tenth of an inch thick. The groove
where the handle is inserted into the
edge of the bowl of the spoon and the
point of junction are hidden by a rosette
of carved wood, circular in shape, only
tenth of an inch thick. This, too, is
carved in lacelike work, and it is &C.
mented to shaft of the spoon. A kind
of flying buttress of similar delicate
woodwork unites the back part of the
shaft to the shoulder of the bowl. The
spoon, which when it leaves the carver's
bench is white, is vanished with Ku-
man oil, which acts as waterproof and
preservative, and dyes the whole of q
fine gamboge yellow similar to our box
wood. The weight of the spoon is in
the largest sizes two ounces. The
tools used by the carver are plane, a
rough sort of gouge and common pen
knife. Each spoon is of separate and
original design, no two being alike,
save when ordered in pairs or sets,
The price of the finest specimens is from
five shillings to fifteen shillings each.
These sherbet spoons are really works
of art, and are valued by Oriental anna
tours. Many. of the merchants are
proud of their sherbet spoons; and
being wood, they are ''lawful;" for
metal spoon, if of silver, is an abomi-
nation; consequently the teaspoons in
Persia have filigrce hole in the bowl,
and thus can be used for stirring the
tea only, and not for the unlawful act
of conveying it to the mouth in silver
spoon. OF course these high-art sher-
bet spoons are only seen at the houses
| of the better classes, a coarser wooden
spoon being used by the lower classes.
The spoons at dinner serve as drinking
vessels, for tumblcrs are unknown; and
the metal drinking cups so much in
use are merely for travelling or the pot
tie deep rotations of the irreligious. -

THE DAIRY.

1t is not always necessary to taste
butter in order to Judge it. Thesmooth,
unctuous feel inrubbing a little between
the finger and thumb expresses a once
its rich quality.
Glazed earthenware milk pans,
holding about six quarts, and with q
haIf-inch rim projecting around the top,
are used with satisfaction in some of
the dairy districts of Ohio.
The finest favored milk, butter and
cheese are made when the cows have
plenty Of fresh, sweet grass. An adj
dition, however, of bran and meal adds
to the quantity and richness.
Prof. l.. B. Arnold says a dairy
farm costs ten per cent. less to operate
than grain growing or mixed agricul-
ture; second, the mean returns average
Il little more than other branches; third,
prices are nearer uniform and more re-
liable; fourth, dairying eXhausts the
soil less; fifth, it is more secure against
changes in the season, since the dairy
man does not suffer so much from the
wet and frost and varying seasons, and
he can, if prudent, provide against
drought.
The public taste is changing so
rapidly towards newly-made butter that
many farmers who make butter in sum
mer to sell in the fall OF wnter,w we think
would do better to time their dairy prod
ucts 50 as to make less in summer
and more at other seasons of the year
when prices are higher. Many are
learning that they can make milk or
'}Gtter about as cheapiy in winter as in
summer. 1t is not an easy matter to
make butter in hot weather that will
keep in any kind of tub till cold
weather, and then be fully equal to
the best fresh-made sold at week
old.-Nel0 England Farmer.

In the STYLE Of Queen Anne.

Let me offer few reflections on the
mania for Queen Anne houses that is
now rife, and which | venture to pro-
nounce failure, and which, with more
certainty will be decreed failure a
generation hence. The thing is all
wrong, and on wrong PRINCIPLES.
The Queen Anne architects INDUCED
in no such ridiculous, fantastic
freaks rs we see now exhibited,
and simply because such was en-
tirely opposed to the nature and char
acter of brick. Brick is simple,
honest, plain material, with p good
color and hard, smooth surface that is
all. Whatever style can display these
qualities best is the Queen Anne STYLE
and no other. The result of the modern
caprices will be seen ten or twenty
years hence, when certainly decay will
have disintegrated or DESTROYED the
whole, or when the owners heart will
have sickened of the frequent repairs
and reservations. The old Queen Anne
houses produced effect by the beautiful
color and surface, the bricks being laid
almost touching, with the thinnest wash
of mortar between. The result is
that no rain or damp ever gets
between. The modern system of build
ing is opposed to this, thick LAYERS of
mortar being interposed, with the GER
tain result that all the elaborate gables,
etc, soon begin to separate. Bricks
put together in elaborate forms have no
strength, no more than stones laid on
earth, but displayed in surface it be-
comes as firm and smooth as a billiard
,t tiasble: Eye E4Eep m2lldings should be raised
in the faintest degree, and the less they
are the richer the effect. There is an
old house out at Clapton. SEMINARY
for young ladies, that for design, sim
plicity, and pure brickwork, mixed
with stone and design of outline, puts
to shame all the brick phaniasmata
that are now covering the city. Look
ing at the pretentious masses that COW
er the new settlement of Cadogan
Square, or line the Embankment, one
does not feel at all drawn back to the
days of Queen Anne There isa coarse,
raw treatment in their embroidery to
which the brick lends itself but reluct-
antly. The material is too rude for
such fine work. There is another fad
in house adornment, which, it may be
said, has run its course. This was the
daubing over houses oliver red, "
green, blue, etc These efforts looked
daring enough at first but presently,
as the dirt accumulated, they turned
all kinds of horrid tints, and the house
looked dirtier and shabbier than ever.

Our Sleeping Rooms.

A physician OF note says, 1--WE hear q
| great talk about malaria a-davs,
but there is more malaria to be found
| in most modern bedchambers than
anywhere else" Persons who are
moderately intelligent on other topics,
appear to have small thought. or that
very perverted, on the subject ofhygiene
in their sleeping rooms, and especially
those occupied by children. The ven
tilation of a bedchamber cannot be too
carefully attended to; and, as says Hor-
ace Mann, ''seeing the atmosphere is
forty miles deep all around the globe,
it is useless piece of economy to
breathe it more than once Yet nine
mothers out of ten will carefully close
all the windows, "for fear of colds and
night air, and leave two or three
children to sleep in a sitting atmos-
phere, and see no connection between
the colds and throat troubles
they have, and the vitiated air
she. cOmpels them to breathe
night after night Let the morning air
and sunshine into the bedroom as soon
as possible after the occupants have
risen, and if there be no sunshine, and
it is not raining, let in the air. Do not
make up beds too soon after they are
vacated. You may get your house
tidied sooner, but it is neither cleanIyn nor
healthful to snugly pack up bed cloth
ing until the eXhalation of the sleepers'
bodies have been removed by exposure
to the air.
Look carefully after the wash-stand
and the various utensils belonging
thereto. The soap dishes and the
toothbrush mugs cannot be kept too
scrupulously clean, All Stops and foul
water should be emptied very promptly.
Wash out and sun all pitchers, glasses,
and whatever vessels are used in the
sleeping room. Never allow water or
stale bouquets Of flowers to stand for
days in the spare chamber after the
departure of guests. Towels that have
been used should be promptly removed,
and no soiled clothing allowed to hang
or accumulate about the room. Closets
opening into a sleeping apartment are
often the receptacleS of sOiled clothes,
shoes, etc, and become fruitful sources
of bad air, particularly where there are
small children. After such places the
housewife should look with keen eye
for Objectionable articles, and remove
them with an unsparing hand. l have
encountered such closets, in which one
might find all the odors traditionallv
belonging to the city of Cologne any
one of which was enough to suggest
ideas of disease germs.
Even so innocent a piece of furniture
as the bureau, may by carelessness be-
come the recipient of articles which
may faint the air of your bed-chamher.
Damp and soiled combs and brushes
are not only unsightly and disgusting,
but lying soiled and unaired from day
to day, will certainly contribute to evil
air and odors, as will also greasy and
highly scented hair ribbons, etc. Never
lay freshly laundried clothes upon the
bed; nor air the same in your bedroom,
if possible to do 80 elsewhere. Do not
hesitate to light a fire on cool mornings
and evenings; and if so fortunate as to
have an open fire place, you possess q
grand means of comfort and ventila-
ton in the bedchamber.-

A party of men stood on street cor
ner watching an old leather pocket book
that lay on the sidewalk. The men
were waiting to see some one come
along and pick it up and throw it down
again. A drummer smiled when he
saw it, stopped and ioined the crowd.
"Here comes an old negro" said the
drummer. I'VE will have some fun"
The old negro stopped, looked at the
pocket book, looked around and said:
"Peers dat some generman hab los
his pocket book"
No one replied. "Well," said the
old man, "es no pusson peers ter own
hit, blebe I'll take hit myself
The men began to smile. The old
fellow took up the poeket-book, opened
it and took out two twenty dollar gold
pieces while tho gentlemen, instead of
laughing, stared in aStOnishment.
"Wall, fore de Lawdn' exclaimed
the old negro, putting the money into
his pocket "Folks in dis town is got
