The Chamber of Bad HumOr.

Krodhagara is an odd-locking word.
1t is Hindoo, and has meaning of par
ticular interest to young people, who in
India often hear it.
In America, when a child is so very
cross that he cannot get over his bad hui
NOR without help, his mother says to
him, go into the corner, my dear, until
you are in better temper" Sometimes
She goes so far as to send him into the
closet, or up into the garret. We have
heard that in old times the cellar and
the barn were occasionally designated as
the place OF exile. But in old times par
ents were little too severe. We should
not object to the barn; but the cellar,
where the potatoes and the coal are keEt,
and where rats too frequently scamper
and gnaw, is not calculated to restore
any child to good humor.
In the land OF the Hindoos, who are a
very amiable and gentle people, there is
in many houses room called the krod.
Niagara, or the Chamber of Bad Humor,
which serves the purpose of the corner
Just referred to.
"You had better go into the Krod-
Niagara, my child" observes the Hindoo
mother, when little Toru is disturbed in
mind. "and there remain until you feel
as a blessed Hindoo child ought to feel. "
This apartment serves a still more i'm
portant use in the family. Ii sometimes
happens to those far-oif heather lands,
strange as it may seem to us in land
where every one is always amiable and
good tempered, that the mother herself
/ is not in the best humOr; sometimes the
father is positively cross; sometimes a
mother-in-law is less amiable than usual,
aud occasionally grandparent does not
enjoy the festive morn when the cruel is
lumpy.
In such cases the afflicted person goes,
of his own accord, into the Krodhagara,
and stays there until he feels himself in
benign accord with all mankind, and in
particularly good humor with his own
family. ~ Youths Companion.

Handkerchiefs.

A handkerchief was the square of fine
linen formerly employed by women to
cover the head, but more recently used
in the hand, and not as a covering only.
The term handkerchief is not met with
earlier than in the fifteenth century,
when in the Wardrobe Accounts of
Edward w. we find ~ dozen hand
couverchieifes" are named as having been
made by one Alice Shapster, TO whom a
payment had been made. Modern hand
kerchiefs arc to be had of different di.
mentions, those for women being smaller
than those for men. They are produced
in silk, both Chinese and Indian, rs well
as in English; of cambric, cotton and
muslin; some designed for the pocket
and others for the neck.
Some of the Indian silk ones are in
self, colors, others have patterns upon
them and are necessarily of two colors.
These are known as bandana handker-
chiefs. Cambria, muslin, cotton and
gingham handkerchiefs are to be had
with hemstitch or ribbon borders, and
some are more or less embroidered 9th.
ers have black or colored borders in va,
rions designs.
Bales of colored cotton handkerchiefs
are Manufactured in this country in
Oriental colors and designs so prepared
to suit the native taste for the Indian eX-
port trade Trimmings Of lace applied
to handkerchiefs first came into fashion
in the reign of Queen Elizabeth. DIR.

best part of his time to the study of tor
nadoes, and has embodied his expert
ence in valuable reports. He has corps
of men all over the country ready to re-
port whenever tornado appears in their
vicinity, and it is by comparing their
statements with those of the officials of
the signal service Offices that he succeeds
in acquiring a pretty exact knowledge
of the characteristics of the various tor
nadoes that visit this country every year.
"Now, there is no doubt but that
much of the damage caused by tornadoes
could be very easily avoided. The loss
of human life would not be nearly so
great as it is if people only kept their
eyes open and did not get hurried
at the approach of a storm. For
example, suppose you saw a tor
nado cloud coming toward you, would
you attempt to cross its path2 think
not Yet more than one person has been
killed in this way. Yet there is one
golden rule which everyone should re-
member. 1t is this-never move to the
southeast, nor northeast or east, and al
ways make tracks before the tornado
cloud is close on your heels. If you

out of it in time, go down to your cellar
and place yourself against the west wall.
Whatever you do, don't choose north
easterly position. The tornado moves in
that direction, and you can easily imag
inc how unpleasant it would be for you
to be directly in it's path.
''In regard to buildings, do not see
how they can be protected against such
storms. Make them as solid and as firm
as you please, still lusty tornado will
scatter them like chatf. Lieutenant
Finley's advice in this respect is, Don't
spend much money on buildings and
don't fail to insure them
zone word more There is no reason
why every family in district exposed
to tornadoes should not have a subter
ranean chamber to which it could retreat
in time of danger. A 'dugout, as it is
called, can be constructed with little
trouble, and may be the means of saving
many lives. Being completely under
ground it can defy the power of the tor
nado. 1t is, moreover, in many re-
spects preferable to a cellar, as the lat.
ter is liable to be filled with the debris
of the falling house. ."-New York Her

Victims OF Morphine.

Winding up a sketch of New York
opium ''joints," Blakely Hall says The
morphine habit is said to be growing
even more rapidly than the opium habit.
travelled from New York to Pittsburg
once with a man-met him casually in
the seeper-who took a morphine syr-
inge out of his pocket, jammcd it into
his leg. through his trousers, and treated
himself to a hyperdermic injection of
morphine two or three times day. He
said he was troubled with rheumatism,
and he thought that was the easiest way
to stop it. lie was a solemn sort of
wreck, and it was impossible TO get him
to believe that his condition was not due
to rheumatism and not morphine. The
druggists who are responsible for so
many good and bad things have lately
taken to selling what are called SILVER
pillsin New York, which are very pecu-
liar with victims of the morphine habit.
The pills are very small and are com.
pounded of morphine and quinine. They
are much better than cocktails or opium
for bracing up more or less weakened
system, and they are particularly popu-
lar with women. who take them slyly
and secretly. About the latest thing OF
all however, is the abuse of that admi
rable slayer OF pain, cocaine. 1t is now
discovered, ! am told by physicians, tha,
cocaine may be taken instead of liquor,
aud that it has the effect of curing all
desire for alcohol. This would be d
good thing if it were not universally con.
ceded that he cocaine habit is even
worse than the time honored plan OF
patronizing the bar.

I NTHE F7RELIGHE.

The fire upon the hearth is low,
And there is stiffness everywhere;
Like troubled spirits, here and there
The freight shadows fluttering go.
And as the shadows round me creep,
A childish treble breaks the gloom,
And softly from a further room
Comes: ''Now l lay me me down to sleep"
And, somehow, with that little prayer
And that sweet treble in my ears,
My thoughts go back to distant years
And fingers with dear one there;
And as hear the child's amen,
My mothers faith comes back to to me;
Crouched at her side seem to be,
aud mother holds my hands again.
oh, for an hour in that dear place
Oh, for the peace of that dear time,
Oh, for that childish trust sublime,
oh, for glimpse of mothers facet
Yet, as the shadows round me creep,
do not seem to be alone
Sweet magic of that treble tone
And "Now lay me down to sleep"

From the coast across the plains.

In quest OF sudden wealth;
The young aglow with buoyant hopes,
The aged with greedy stealth.

Those stal lwart pioneers.
From the Palmetto aud the Pine

An army strong and bold,
Their sight on the Sierras bent
In the reckless race of old.
They came all bearded ms the pard,
Bronzed by the FURNISHED sun,
With Colt and Bowie for their guard,
And the rich field was won.
Along the Sacramento's shore
Ran rivulets of life,
All eager for the precious ore
In Mammon mines of strife.
While mother, sister, sweetheart, bride,
Fell on their knees to pray
That naught of evil should betido
Their loved-ones leagues away.
