A Healthy, Beautiful Woman.

Here is a paragraph descriptive OF
Theodosia and her wholesomeness.
Theodosia makes her appearance of a
morning:
"Perhaps there is no better test of
woman's health and beauty than her
appearance when she presents herself
at an early breakfast. She is then
more as nature made her than at any
other period of the dav, when art has
been brought in with q view of height
ening her charms. If she has slept
well, it argues to some extent a sound
nervous system, and the effect is seen
in the brightness of her eyes and the
tone possessed by the muscles of the
face and neck. Her intelli-
gence is then at its maximum, and she
feels the mental recklessness that is so
generally the result of sound, healthy
sleep, and that is only a natural citation
of the emotions, pleasant, doubtless,
for her to exhibit, butfar more pleasant
to those to whom it is manifested"
The unhealthy woman at breakfast
DR.. Hammond dismisses as follows.
cher expression is indicative of the dis
comforts she has undergone during the
night, her movements are either pain
fully slow or aggravatingly brusque,
her intellect shows stupidity, her emo
tions are torpid, her perceptions dull.
There is no better test of a
woman's health than her ability to eat
hearty breakfast, and it migt almost
be said that her physical beauty is in
direct proportions to the amount of
beefsteak or mutton chops she can put
into herself at this meal. Certainly,
pretty women can always eat hearty
breakfast" There can be no doubt
but that DR.. Hammond is an expert

do not know of any but a single
record where natives of newly dis
covered country did not know the use
of fire; that one case was on Island
Fauna Loa, or Bodwitch's Island, dis
covered on the 9th of January, 1841,
by the U. S. S. Peacock, commanded
by Captain w. H. Hudson, of the United
States South Sea Surveying and Ex-
ploring Expedition
Captain Hudson relates: 1.-The natives
were at first very shy of the boats; but
the Hawaiians who were in them soon
induced them to approach, and to enter
into trade, and finally enticed them
alongside the ships. On coming near
they began a song or chant, holding up
their paddles and mats, and shouting
'kafilou tamatau.' They resembled the
natives of Oatafu, or Duke of York's
Island, wore the same kind of mats,
eyes shades and ornaments, and some
were tattOoed in the same manner,
some, however, were tattooed in a
different style, being ornamented with
a variety of arrows on the forehead and
cheeks. They were all finely formed
and manly in appearance, with pleasing
countenances that expressed good ma
ture.
''They were eager enough for trade,
and soon disposed of all they had to ex-
change; a few presents were made them,
but all the inducements failed to entice
them on board. They appeared cheer.
full, laughing heartily at anything that
struck them as ridiculous.
The population of the island is esti-
mated to be about six hundred souls,
most of whom dwell in the town.
There were no signs of places for
cooking, nor any appearance of fire,
and it is believed that all their provis-
ions are eaten raw. What strengthened
this opinion was the alarm the natives
felt when they saw the sparks emana-
ting from the flint and steel, and the
emission of smoke from the mouths of
those who were smoking cigars"
The writer of this article was on
board the Peacock, and can vouch for
the verify Of Captain Hudson's account
of our interviews with the natives, and
also that they eat their entire food with
out cooking, but also had the greatest
dread of fire in any form. We saw no
trace of charcoal or ashes in their vii
lage or town. and we fully understood
them as to their food and how it was
taken. 1t consisted entirely of cocoa
nuts and pandanus fruits, fish, echini
and other products of the sea; the few
sea birds mostly seen there were not
regarded as food, and even if theyw were
could not have been easily obtained or
relied on for supplies, the population
being large in proportion to the islands

The Isle Of Shoals.

The shoals were long q bone Of
contention between New Hampshire
and Maine, being on the State line, but
now they have been divided up. They
number seven from our cross-trees;
namely, Duck, where in the dim past q
duck was seen. The most dangerous
of the group, Hog Island, now known
as Appledore, Smutty Nose or Haley's.
These, with Cedar Island, belong to
Maine; while the others, Star, White,
Londoners, belong to New Hampshire.
On former visit the writer's yacht was
anchored and swung so that we caught
fish for ard in the State of Maine and
ate them in the cabin in New Hamp-
shire.
Although the shoals look extremely
small from distance, they take up
quite little space. Star Island, ac-
cOrding to a measurement taken re-
Gently, is nearly mile long and half D
mile wide. White Island is three
fourths of mile LONG, Haley's is q
mile long; the entire group comprises
about six hundred acres. In rambles
about the rocks many interesting points
are to be seen. On Star Island is an
old burying ground that would provide
material for volume in itself. The
inscription on one of the stones reads:

PaWnbrOkers' Signs.

stood to have its foundation in the arms
of the Medici family, representative
of which went from mhardy to Lon
don in the Middle Ages, and, being very
rich, set up business as 3 banker or
money lender. The arms of his family
consisted of three gilded pills, which
had direct allusion to their profession
of medicine. Beside being doctors
they were the richest merchants in Flor
ence and the greatest money lenders.
The branch of the family which settled
in London commenced business in Lom-
bard Street. Whether the family arms
were used as a sign to attract has not
been stated, but there seems to be no
question that this was the origin of the
three golden balls now used to indicate
the presence of pawn-broking estab-
lishments. 1t is observed that the bust
ness of lending money on pawns was
carried on in England by Italian mer-
chants or bankers as early, at least, as
the reign of Richard /. By the u Ed
ward l., q messuage was confirmed to
these traders, where Lombard Street
now stands, but the trade wss first rec
ognized in law by James |. The name
Lombard, according to Stow, is con-
traction of Longobards. The Lombard
bankers exercised monopoly of pawn
broking till the reign of Queen Eliza
beth. Another Interpretation of the
three balls signs is that it indicates that

The American Pine Supply.

In the United States the problem
that has long agitated Europe has be-
gun to present itself, and the question.
"From whence are the American PEG
pie to procure their future supply of
construction timber ?'' is constantly
being asked by the dealers of this Re-
public. The question may readily be
answered. The tall mountain ranges
of Mexico are covered nearly to their
submits with a growth of excellent
white and pitch pine. The tops of the
innumerable foot hills are also gar
nished with grand pine forests.
The same may also be said of the five
Central American republics. AS the
traveller recedes from the coast, at
about fifty miles from the ocean, the
lands which gradually slope upward
present an almost temperate flora to
the eyes of the astonished beholder,
while many pleasing contrasts may be
observed; for instance, the larch, pop
lar and sycamore flourish beside the
tamarind and the frondose ceiba. The
oak and the laurel mingle their
branches with those of the nispero and
the zapote, while the same fertile soil
gives life to the cypress and the cherry,
the apple and the banana, the plum
and the coffee trees. At an altitude of
$500 feet above the sea the pine and
other conifere first appeared; at an
elevation of 5000 this genus attains its
greatest size, but at the height of 5000
it assumes a stunted and dwarfed ap-
pearance. 0. Times Democrat.
