A Description of a Portion of the Pres.
ent Seat of War in That Country.
He who has never travelled through
of that strange and marvellous region, in
which all the ordinary conditions OF
life are completely changed. 1t is es-
sentially waterless land, without riv-
ers, creeks, rivulets, or springs. Once
away from the Nile, the only supply OF
water is derived from deep wells, few,
scanty, and far apart. Long droughts
are frequent. When l explored the
great Arabian Desert between the Nile
and the Red Sea, it had not rained for
three years; and when | travelled over
the Suakim route and through Kordo-
fan, no rain had fallen for, two years.
Between the twenty-ninth and the nine
teenth degree of latitude it never rains
at all. Water becomes precious to
degree beyond the conception of those
who have never known its scarcity.
Members of the Catholic mission
at FL Obeid, where water
is much more plent full than
in the deserts, assured me that the
summer before water had been sold as
high as half dollar a gallon by the
proprietors of the few wells that had
not dried up. When long droughts oc-
cur. the always scanty crop OF doura
fails away from the Nile, and the
greater parts of the fiocks and herds
perish, as well as considerable part
of the population. 1t follows naturally
that when undertaking a journey
through the desert, the paramount
question is water. A supply must be
carried sufficient to last to the next
well. be it one or five days distant. 1t
is usually carried in goat and OK skins
suspended from the camels' pack-sad-
dies. These are the water-bottles Of
Scripture, which become leaky from
wear, and always lose considerable
portion of their contents by evapora-
ton. The first thing after reaching
well is to ascertain the quality of its
water. AS to the former, it may
have been exhausted by a
preceding caravan, and hours
may be required for new supply to
ooze in again. AS to the quality, desert
water is generally bad, the exception
being when it is worse, though long
custom enables the Bedouins to drink
water so brackish as to be intolerable
to all except themselves and their
flocks. Well do I remember how at
each well the first skinful was tasted
all around as epicures sip rare wines.
Great was the joy if it was pronounced
'.moya helaCa." sweet water; but if the
Bedouins said ''moosh tayib, not good,
we might be sure it was solution of
EPSON salts. The best water is found
in natural rocky reservoirs in deep mar.
row gorges where the sun never shines.
AS to live spr ngs," l never saw more

The Aesthetic Element in Education.

DR.. j. D. Anderson, in a recent num-
Der of Education, considers the asthet-
ic element in education. He holds it
to be an essential duty for the teacher
to inculcate an appreciation of the
beautiful by both precept and example
He enlarges upon the good influence of
attractive surroundings and insists that
the aesthetic spirit should pervade
everything in and about the school
room. Among some of the practical
suggestions he makes is the following:
"A teacher is not going out of
the way of his duty if he cor
reefs boy for coming to school with
unwashed hands or unkempt hair; or
il he should draw attention to some de-
feet in his dressing or clothing; if he
should refer to an unbrushed jacket or
a siovenly-put-on tie. All this comes
within his jurisdiction, and he must adj
Indicate upon the delinquencies with
all the soberness and gravity that such
offenses deserve" But this adiudica-
ton. it may be added, should be under
taken only by teacher who is en-
downed with very sound Judgment, ex-
quisite discretion and very warm
heart. Children may be made alto
gether too prim, and neatness too Sc
verely enforced does not always con.
duce to cheerfulness in the school
room.-Current.

An Ungrateful Patient.

It is poor return on the part of a
man whose life has been saved by the
skill and care of his medical attend
ants to bring an acton against them,
when he has recovered, for having
practiced useless and needless opera
tons upon him. Such an migrate
full patient deserves to lose his case,
and to have to pay damages into the
bargain, as the plaintiff in a suit just
heard before the Correctional Trib-
unal at Paris has done. This gentle
in danger, owing to severe wound
inflicted with rusty nail in his
thumb, was attended by three we'll
known doctors and surgeons, and ow-
ing to Their skill, though the case was
of a very complicated nature, he was
restored TO health. No sooner, how
ever. was he up and about than the
patient, instead of paying the usual
fees, or even expressing his gratitude
to the doctors, informed them that
he intended to bring an action be-
cause operations had been pract:ced on
him without his previous consent. 1t
was easy for the defendants to justify
their conduct in court, for the pa
tent. at the moment of the so-called
operation, which amounted to nothing
more than a lancet thrust, was in
high fever and delirious; therefore. he
could not be consulted. The court, OF
course, non-suited the plaintiff, who
has also to pay damages to each Of
his medical attendants as compensa-
ton for the annoyance and trouble he
has occasioned them.-London Stand

Jefferson's impatience and injustice
are as old as the modern newspaper
itself, which dates from the time when
it ceased to be mere gazette ofevents,
and began to comment upon events,
and advocate and oppose public poll
cies. and to discuss all public ques-
tions In his oensure Jefferson con-
POUNDS two things-the actual news, or
reports of occurrences, and the re-
marks upon them. When he says that
a man deludes himself if he supposes
because he has read the papers that ne
knows what has sspassed in his time.
he means that he has lost its signih-
canoe if he has allowed the gazette to
interpret the news for him. Without
the record of current events a man
would be singularly uniformed. VI
course, however, even the editor OF
newspaper may share the frailty OF
common humanity, and misled by a
passionate preference for his own view
and his own objects, he may dexter
ously color or sscookn the news, in or
der, as it were. to turn it against itself,
or spike its own guns.

able editor can relieve his feelings by
saying that it was string of old hogs

the reporter of the spectacle was in that
condition which all good reporters
ought carefully to avoid. In like man
ner the newspaper which states the
fact of discourse by Hortensius can
always slyly turn the fact against the
orator by observing that the effort was
far from what was expected, that the
audience was small and cold, and that
there was no applause. These last OBJ
servations might fall under the head of
what Jefferson calls lies. But certainly
the reader would know that Hortensius
had spoken.
A general onslaught upon the press.
like that by Jefferson, is as droll as a
similar vituperation of the weather; for
the press will always reflect the time
and the community in which it exists.

THE BOSTON WOMAN.

Some Popular Estimates or Boston Fee
males Corrected.
1t is great mistake to imagine that
spectacles, Pluto blue wells and low
heels are the characteristics of Boston
women now. No such thing; they are
weak solutions of French coquetry in
rectangular molds. For the women
here are so thin! But the upper and
the lower do not include them all. ]
wish could trust my pen to picture
for you some one or more OF the Bos-
ton girls one sees on Commonwealth
avenue or Beacon street of pleasant
afternoon. They are not to be equaled;
ana remember that am impartial
enough, for Boston girls are not my
preference as rule. Not Frisco, with
its women of marvellous compilations;
not Baltimore, with its women OF round
ed figures and dark eyes and hair; not
New York, with its women of graceful
carriage and easy Inconsistencies; not
one of these can show you the type Of
a beautiful Boston girl. She has that
hair that looks as though it were sand
and sunshine interviewer, that clear
complexion tinged with red that makes

well-cut nose and mouth, the low Greek
forehead with the hair brushed off it,
the flat back and well-turned shoulders
of an English girl, and the nervous,
plant movement in action of an ath-
fete; she rides and plays tennis. swims
and shoots sometimes, and carries about
with her fresh-air kind of atmosphere
that makes ones eyes brighten and
nerves Jingle at the sight of health SO
charmingly housed; and there is no
nonsense and no morb dness in her
makeup. Health is sure safeguard
against these. She may '.flirt;" what
woman will not? But even then it is a
sunbeam that romps with the blades OF
grass and the swaying leaves-a mere
game of hide-and-seek, with no object
beyond wholesome trying of the af-
fections' wings. Yes, such women as
these are, after all. solution OF part
of the problem. No boy with such
mother will soil himself if he knows he
must look into her eyes afterward; and
no man will be envious of other mems

and loneliness at home. Boston Her.

FABLE THE SECOND.

WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM WHO HELPED LAME
DOG OVER sTILE.
Farmer Blackthorn was not the man
to tell tales; and besides Marrish had
made a special and most natural re-
quest that no word should be breathed
of his having been a rejected sutton. So
much was due, at least, by way of salve
to mortified pride; and the debtor could
afford to be even more than generous
to the creditor from whom he was so
soon to be free. Whatever Patience
thought, she also held her tongue about
her suspicious, even towards her now
plighted lover; for she was a lady to
the core, and was not the girl to make
mischief between old neighbors and
friends. As for Stephen, excellent man
of business as he was, he no more, as l
have already said, dreamed of rival
in ''old'' Miser Marrish than of-say
the most impossible thing that can be
named.
He had his reward, even more than
Patience herself could give him. 1t
did his heart good to see how Farmer
Blackthorn's back Strengthened itself;
how his eyes frightened; how his voice
recovered a note or two of jollity; how
he began to swagger and patronize-
how. in short, though with certain
touch of senility, he became Tom Black
thorn of Legs Croft in all his glory
once more. One could see, from his
behavior under hope, in what at least
some of the characteristic causes of his
ruin must have lain. For, of course,
even though Stephens plan should sue
coed to the uttermost, the burden on
the land would not be wiped off, but
simply transferred from Enoch Marrish
to the land-agents and surveyors whom
Stephen served. Still, it is no doubt
better to be indebted to far-away, inn
personal creditors than to a neighbor
under whose eyes one has to live and
look ashamed, and who knows the Sc
crets of ones affairs; and then, in his
heart, he did not like Marrish over
much, while Stephens only fault was
that he had not sprung from land. For
a yeoman of the Blackthorn caste would
have looked upon marriage with an
Earl as a neSdiiidnce if the Peer in
question could not find the root of his
pedigree somewhere under hereditary
field
Nor ESQ inconsistent is human ma
ture) was this feeling on the part of
Farmer Blackthorn whit the less
strong because he had himself COM
mitted mesalliance; his dead wife
having been not so much as country
