How They INSTRUMENTATION Of Their Words.


The PdH MAI gazette supplies the following in
formation: "Of the Afghans proper the following
are the most important tribes: The Durannis, pro-
nounced Dorahnys,) who occupy the whole OF the
south and southwest of the Afghan plateau; the
Ghilzas, brave and strong people, who at one time
held sway In Persia, and who are now located IN a
high plateau north of Candahar the Yusufzas,
whose home lies north of Peshawur, and the Kakars
holding the region to the southwest, bordering on
Beloochistan.
The Pathans are people of doubtful origin who
inhahit the spurs OF the SULLIVAN Mountains. The
Ku2llbashes are Persian tribe, speaking pure Per-
throughout the towns and villages DOCTORS scrlbes,
etc, forming the better educated portion OF the
population. The language OF the country IL Pushtu,
heong To the Aryan or ndo European stock, but the
educated Afghans all speak Persian.
All the tribes are alike in their characteristics
brave, independent, hut of turbulent, vindictiye
character; they are only happy when fighting. Since
they have been known In history they have lived In
state OF chronic warfare. Revenge is u virtue

THE WELCOME HoMA

Toil-worn and weary, far away we wander
To seek the ncedful rest we ind not here,
Though nowhere In the world could friends b
fonder,
And nowhere in the world are scenes more dear
wish we feel TO get beyond the border
OF ceaselcss mol and every worldly theme,
And for season list to natures teaching,
While revealing in Lcthe's gentle stream.
But, oh, how sweet when surfeted with rowing,
And the sick brain regalns its healthy tone,
To turn our thoughts once more to life and loving
While Fastening homeward to reioin our own
To know that hearts will throb with Joy to meet us
That eyes win beam with pleasure when we come
That voices Kind In ecstacy, will greet us!
what JOY lives in the glorious Welcome home

OILED CLOTHING.

A common annoyance is experienced by dealers in
rubber garments coats being returned with the claim
of leaking-"the water soaks right throughit." Now
while occasionally rubber coat may be defective,
not more than in fifty of those returned for leak
ing really leak. Philosophy teaches us that warm
air retains in latent insensibe state, more mois
ture than cold air. warm current Of air coming
against cold surface will dampen it breathe on the
window-glass for few moments, and drops of mois-
ture will down the pane. The rubber coat, but.
toned around the wearer, retains the warmth of the
body. The warm air within, rising and coming in
contact with the cool surface of the rubber coat,
loses its moisture and is condensed on the inside Of
the same, occasionally wettng it as though 1t had
leaked.
A great many ventilating rubber coats have been
invented and patented, but experience has shown
them to be but imperfecty adapted to produce the
result claimed. 1t is safe to say that truly veni.
lating waterproof coat cannot, from its nature, be
made The old forms of talmas and capes, loose Mt
ting, permit the most and best ventilation.

OMINoUs PROPHECIES CONCERNING 1885.
Somebody has unearthed an old prophecy
for the year 1886 of a decidedly uncomforta-
BILE nature. It appears that in the church
of Oberemmel, near the city of Treveri,
in Germany, there is stone tablet
some centuries old, on which is cut the
prophetic verse-in prose it may be rem
dered:
''When Mark shall bring us Easter and An.
thony shall sing praises at Pentecost, and
John swing the censer at the feast of Corpus
Domini, then shall the whole earth resound
with weepings and wailings.'
Now, it so happens that next year Easter
falls on st. Marks day, Pentecost on that OF
St. Anthony of Padus, and the Corpus Dom
ini comes on st. John the Baptist's day,
June "a. Here, then, are the first condi'
tions of the prophecy fulfilled, so that now
believers in prophecies and anxious minded
persons geneally have only to sit down and
think of everything disagreeable that can
possibly happen to this poor old planet and
the dwellers thereon between January and
December, 1886. And, really, if the cy.
clones and earthquakes and epdemics and
'swars and rumors of wars of the years
1SS2-345 5 are to be eclipsed, the prospect il
not an agreeable one.--London GLOBE.
