ANIMAL ECCENTRlClTIES.
Queer Habits of Some of Our Four-Foot
ed Ericnds.

ed Friends.
If a man begins to save against his
old age, We call it thrift, and praise
him as a snail capitalist who is giving
hostage to fortune; but if - dog accu-
mulatcs a store of bones or food, we look
upon him as INDUCING in dangerous ca
prices. which may end in the necessity
of putting q bullet through his head.
There may b. exceptions here and there.
Sometimes YOU will find an old lady
who will project eccentricity in a par
rot, a magpie, or q iackdaw, as u bird
that has a right to a certain freedom Of
movement in return for it's entertaining
attempts at conversation. But, on the
whole, there is no sterncr standard of
conventionality than that which we en-
force On our domestic animals. Pet dogs
become perfect bigots in favor OF The
usual, and persecu;e any attempt to de-
waite from it on the part vcn of q more
powerful and less favored colleague, as
the Inquisition prosecuted heresy, or as
the court OF Russia persccutes Niliilism.
There is nothing equal to the indigna.
ton of an indoors dog at any invasion
of the privacy OF the drawing-room by
an outdoors dog. and nothing more
melancholy than the scrvile apologies
which the big dog will make to the lit
tic one, for wen proposing to breal
through the animal etiquette of thu
ouse.-Popular Science Monthly.

An agricultural journal advises the
planting of plum trees in the hen yard.
Eggs packed in well-dried ashes,
and SO as not touch each other, have
been kept perfectly sweet for twelve
months.
Supply your barns and stables
with brushes and wire curry-combs
that will not scratch the tender skin
of animals, and see that they are used.
The stem of the pumpkin, when
grated fine and stepped, strained, and
the dccoction well swectened, is a very
valuable remedy for ~iatulent or cramp
colic.-1roy Times.
Pulls: Sift II quart of flour with
spoonfIls of cream tartar, add one tea
full of salt and one pint of water. Shape

"A writer in the Prairie Farmer
proposes to have a bed of clean, sharp

TURKISH WOMEN.
The Relations of Females in Turkey
Towards the Opposite Sex.

Towards the Opposite Sex.
On tho street the women are models
of propriety, They never speak to a
man on such occasions. though they
will stare at a foreigner with simple and
child-like curiosity. Fiances are al
lowed to walk and tax together, and it
is the correct thing for accepted lovers
to serenade their duleineas III the even
ing with a guitar. The latter custom
seems to be in the nasure of q final test
of the strength OF the brides attach
ment. Certainly from what heard, if
she can stand his music with compos-
ure, there are few tt'als as bad that will
| come to her in after life, unless he sings
| again. There has been the same
loosening of rigidity of late years in the
matter of woHlan going abroad alone as
in other lines Of Turkish conduct. To
read the old %statutes one would think
the lines very hardly drawn, Thus in
the time of Mourad III. the women We're
forbidden to wear bright colors, or sail
in a caique without their husbands, and
if a woman was found in the streets
alone it was the duty of every good
M%ouradian to stop her, reprove
her, and order her to 90 home.
To-day tie statutes are less severe,
but in dead earnest as far rs they do 90.
But the Tomen are more careful, and
though they are seer everywhere, rid
ing in HE cars, buying in the bazars,
and luiching quietly in the cemeteries,
they never venture to speak to a stran-
per in the street.
