Girls at Work.

The theory that girls exist merely as lay
figures to display fine drapery and TO look
pretty is not entertained among half-ciyilised
or savage rbites or nations. The eccentric no.
ton still prevails throughout Asia, Africa and
in some parts Of Europe and America, that
tnev are born to labor. In Turkestan and on
the Tarter steppes the Kirghese SultaDas and
their daughters, and Processes in whose veins
flow the blood of long lines of kings, still milk
the sheep, cows aud goats, and perform the
mental offices Of the household as the Sanscript
naidens did 5000 years ago in the same local
ties. They cook, take care Of the younger
children, make garments, cure the skins of
wild fowl with the feathers on for caps, spin
cotton, weave cloth, and tan leather by means
of sour milk. In this delectable region the
mother wears rich attire, while the daughter
goes in humber weeds like Cinderella. II
there is piano. the mother plays on it in the
front room of the tent while the daughter
prews the koumiss, stews the mutton, aud
broils the camel chops in the back kitchen.
This is the benighted condition of patriarchal
people who adhere TO a nearly obsolete theory
Of filial duty. Similar ideas prevail through
out India, China and among the native tribes
Of Siberia who have been driven northward by
aggressive neighbors. The THgusian girl
gathers the snow, melts it, makes the tea, and
the fish soup, sews, and, being skillful il
archery, helps to keep the larder supplied
with game. The Yakut and Samoy EIDE maid
ems and all those who dwell along the Arctic
Ocean, help in summer to lay up winter sup
plies and in winter to perform all necessary
domestic duties The Abyssinian girl grind:

the Office of a Chicago capitalist and
asked for an interview, and when this
had been granted he spread out a
country map on the table, and said:

millions of wealth into our pockets"
"Well?"

Stories of Victor Emmanuel.

The Italian papers are full of anec-
dotes just now concerning Victor En-
manuel, whose not too artistically sue
cessful tomb has just been inaugurated
IN the Pantheon. Among these here
is one that is curious. The King when
quite young was walking incognito
through the streets of Turin with his
brother, the Duke of Genoa. They
met a gipsy woman, who accosted
them and begged to tell their fortune.
They assented, much amused. After
looking at Prince Ferdinand's hand,
the hag said he would die young; then,
turning to Victor, she said, you will
die in Rome in the Quirinal Palace" !"
Prince Victor laughed heartily at this
apparently absurd prophecy, but did
not forget it, and himself related the
aneedote in 1852 to the Duke Ponza di
5. Martino. In the year 1870, when
he sent the Duke to Rome with his let
ter to Plus *, he said significantly:
''You remember that you go to Rome
to prepare for me the chamber in which
| must die" Here is another. Short
ly after the Kings marriage he met a
peasant girl upon the steps of the Roy
al Palace at Turin. She was bringing
basket of eggs for the royal kitchen,
and because the King wore a plain
hunting dress and was alone she took
him for servant. ''Do point out the
King to me- she begged: II should SO
like to see him. Il am the King" "
he said. ''Eh! bah!" said the girl,
laughing into his face. THE Princess
would not have chosen such an ugly
man." The King laughed too, and
accompanied the girl to the kitchen,
where he bade the servants attest to
his identity. He then gave the girl a
20-franc piece, and left her bewildered
and surprised. The story is charac-
teristic of this monarch, who was
essentially simple in his habits, and
| full of bonhomie. London World.

How Medicine is Taken.

1t is to be feared that to most people
medicine is not an erudite science or
learned art, but is little more than the
commonplace administration of physic.
They cannot understand medicine with
out drugs, and its virtue and power
are popularity measured by the violence
of its operations. Its very name is, in
ordinary parlance, synonymous with
physic Take from it its pills and po-
tions, and for them you take away it's
whole art and mystery. They do not
believe in scheme of treatment, how
ever deep-laid and skillful, which does
not include certain statutory dosage
So that, as a rule, medical men are
practically compelled to give their pa
tients visible object of faith in some
form of physic, which may be at most
designed to effect some very subordi-
nate purpose. And it is remarkable
how strongly, even among the educated
classes, this feeling prevails. Cures
by the administration of mixtures and
boluses is so fixed and ancient tradi-
ton that it is only very slowly that the
world will give it up. The anxiety of
the friends of the patients wants to do
Ilore than follow the simple direction
of nursing" which have been so care
fully indicated, and possesses appar-
emily so little remedial power. There
is nothing of the unknown about them
in which futtering hope of great ad-
vantage can nestle. Thus it is neces-
sary to educate the world into belief
in medicine apart from drugs, which
finds its power of curing in adaptation
of the common conditions of life and
applications of physiological facts-a
medicine which takes into its hands
the whole life, and orders and fashions
its every detail with scientific definite
ness. 1t is found in everyday practice
that this popular misunderstanding of
the modern spirit of medicine constant
ly checks the little tentative advances
OF 4 more scientific treatment, and it is
necessary that it should be generally
understood how powerfully the various
processes of The economy may be effect

lon O. common life.-BrttiSh Quarterly

About Coughs and Colds.

Coughs and colds are prevalent now,
especially among children, too often
from the ignorance or caraleSsness of
their elder guardians, Many mothers
appear to accept with resignation the
repeated and violent colds from which
their children suffer as provdential
and unavoidable. A cold is by no
means always due to exposure. Indi-
gestion, constipation, a lack of scrupu-
lous cleanliness, the unwise habit of
sleeping in much of the clothing worn
during the day, unaired bedchambers
all, or any of these things may have
far more to do with your child's
tendency to cold than the keenest
breath of the bracing winter air. And
in a great measure these things are un-
der your control. Mothers should un-
derstand that this is fact, whether
they can see how it is or not, that nu-
merous sore throats and colds are di-
reetly traceable to Indigestion and die
tetic errors. Quantities of greasy food,
fried meats, pastry, and the like, ill-ven-
tilated rooms, and continued constipa-
ton, have to answer for many cases of
Group and putrid sore throat. All
these things weaken the system and
render it far less able to resist changes
of temperature. Give every bedroom
a thorough airing every day, more es-
pecially if several children are obliged
to sleep together, or with their parents.
This is to be avoided, if possible; if
not, always lower the window slightly
from the top-or,i if this cannot be done,
raise it from below. There is frequent
ly bad air enough generated and
breathed in the sleeping apartment of
family with small children to supply
them all not only with colds but with
number OF so called ''malarious" dis
eases, to last year, perhaps longer.
Neglect of bathing is another prolific
source of colds. A child from 3 to 10
years old should certainly receive an
entire bath twice week in winter A
warm bath at night, taking especial
care to avoid any chill after, will fire.
quently break up sudden cold. Keep
children from playing in chilly, unused
rooms in autumn and winter weather.
Let them play out of doors as much as
possible, taking care to have their feet
warm and dry. A flannel suit and
rubber overshoes will frequently save
much cough medicine and Doctors bills
Keep them warmly clad, but do not be
content with thick coats and worsted
hoods, while short skirts barely cover
the knees, leaving the limbs chilled -

New Factory Law in Russia.


Hitherto owners and managers of
mills and factories in Russia have been
free to deal with their workpeople as
they pleased. But on the first day of
this year new factory law came into
operation for the regulation of the work
of children. A complete staff of in
spectors has been appointed to enforce
the following stipulations of the new
law: l. Children under ten years of
age must not be allowed to work in
factories. g Workers from the age of
twelve to fifteen years must not work
more than eight hours day. Night
work for children can only be author
lied in establishments where the pro-
cess of manufacture can not have D
bad influence on the health. Even if
allowed, the work must not exceed four
hours. 5, The work of children must
be regulated in such a way as not to
prevent their going to school three
hours every day. 4. The owners of
factories are obliged to admit inspect
ors and their assistants into their works
Rt any hour of the day.

Longfellow's Last Resting Place.

Longfellow has no tombstone, no
mound, no memorial, says a recent
writer. We found his grave by the
number of the lot. The whole place is
smoothly sodded by strong coping.
1t is on a terrace. One side runs al
most perpendicular down to lower
road. The place seems fitted natur-
ally for vault, but only bank of
green met the eye on the steep hillside.
Unmarked as it was, it was surround
ed by visitors-young and old, home
people and strangers, No need to ask,
no need to tell who was LOngfellow.
There were people there from beyond
the Rockies, and they gathered the
grass blades to take back with them; a
schoolboy treasured a sorrel blossom
that grew by the way, and the very
dust of the carriage road, believe,
would have been priced because it had
been near to him, to the body that had
dweit with ''thaU beautiful spirit, :"
whose fame his friend Emerson in his
feebleness had forgotten, but whose
beauty even death shadows could not
dim

1t Wasn't the Cat.

A fish dealer down in Salineville,
Ohio, says that he received a box of
frozen fish from Cleveland during the
recent blizzard. They were so hard
and brittle that they had to be handled
with care to keep them from breaking
in pieces. He sold one to an old lady,
who took it home and put it in a bucket
of cold water to thaw out gradually
During the night she heard something
splashing and Topping around in the
kitchen. Supposing it was the cat try
ing to get the fish, she jumped out of
bed, seized the broom, and broke for
the scene. There was no cat visible,
but the fish was making the water f1y
in every direction. AS near as could
be learned, these fish had lain out in
the cold two nights before being pack
ed in boxes, and had been out of the
water more than two weeks.

DAVE WALKER, Anderson's store, was

that Lee had. Dave was in Richmond
some time since, and sitting at night in
