fled, but one of the Russian soldiers,
in searching for booty, came upon
beautiful young girl about five years
old, who looked at the soldier with
tears in her large black eyes. The
soldier pitled the child, took it along
and showed it to the officers, who
soon raised subscription of five
thousand rubles, and sent the child to
st. Petersburg to school for young
girls, She is now charming Oriental

that out OF gratitude she will marry one
of the officers who provided for her.

TeIephunic Statistics.

The rapid adoption of the telephone in
Europe is worthy of mention In Italy
there were $40 subscribers in ten cities in
1883 and 5301 in 1884 an increase of 50
per cent In France eleven cities had
1879 subscribers in 1883 and 5535 in 1884
"a gain of Is per cent Five Belgian
cities had 2O41 subscribers in 1883 and
2443 in 1884 an increase of IS per cent.
In Great Britain London had 1850 sub
scribers in 1884 and only 1855 in 1888 an
increase of % per cent. In the towns of
Liverpool, Manchester, Southport and
Blackburn there were 2734 subscribers in
lSS4-an increase of II per cent The de
velopment of the use of the telephone in
Sweden surpasses that elsewhere. Five
cities in 1882 had 1854 subscribers; in 1884
fifty one cities had 1877 subscribers
gain, in two years of 39S per cent. Hol
land last year had 2250 subscribers;
Switzerland, 3771; Russia, 2230. The
statistics for other countries have been
published, but in June, 1884 Berlin had
1900 subscribers; Vienna 70S last Decem-
Der; Copenhagen, SIG in June, 1888; Lis
bon, 343 at the close of 1888. These
figures suffice to show that in all parts of
the continent Europeans have not been
slow to recognize the practical usefulness
of the telephone and have lost no time in
adopting it in their business Philadelphia

Effect of Smoking Upon the Throat.

A great deal of discussion of the char
acter of a complaint generated by the ex-
cessive use of tobacco IN smoking Is Civ
ing the physicians employment. On ac-
count of the possession of the complaint
by General Grant the interest Ill the dis
order is increased
If the disease is occasioned by the habit
of smoking the character of the complaint
can be ascertained. Only a mere corrod
ing of the membranes and tissues of the
throat is taking place. cigar in the
mouth ignited gives current of smoke
to the air, and the discharge of smoke
from the mouth gives the air another
The ashes of the cigar are in some degree
carried to the nostrils in the inhalation of
atmosphere. The substance of the smoke
and ashes is the same except in degree of
decomposition performed by the fire. This
substance is taken into the nostrils and
deposited to some extent on the surface
of the throat. When thus deposited an
alkali Is made of the water on the surface
of the organs. A mere creation of an al
kali that can constantly colrode the sur
face of the throat. When the corTosion Is
sufficient to destroy tissue, sore Is
created, and supperation viii take place.
The pus will corTode still more of the It's
sues. If the cause of the complaint is
removed and the corroded part sufficiently
cleansed of the pus chance is given the
sore to heal
No other remedy is necessary unless it
be in sufficiently nourishing the body.
This proposition is submitted to the com
munity and it should be considered.-Pro-
bkeMs Of Nature.

What a zareba Is.

A correspondent writes to the New York
Journal Of Commerce: "Will you kindly in
form me what 'zareba' is? 1t is men
toned in connection with the late report
of the surprise of the English by concealed
Arabs. l have sought the information
from some gentlemen connected with our
military, but it is phrase that they do
not understand"
Reply-The zareba is an inclosed camp,
or indeed, as the word signifies, an inclos-
IRE of any description. A suitable place,
not commanded by overlooking hills, and
as far as possible from points of conceal
ment, Is selected and is fortified" in

ally take up the thorny minosa bushes and
pile them in rows with the roots inward
and bush heaped upon bush sometimes to
the height of ten feet Then heaping up
against them on the inside platform of
sand or other material two feet on more
high, the inmates with their rifles may
defend the place against any force which
is destitute of artillery The English imi-
tate the natives, getting the thorny bushes
when they can, but utilizing for the defense
all the impediment of the detachment. The
high saddles of the camels are among the
best part of the outer wall, then ale the
boxes, bales and movables of every DIES
cription are placed in line as a means of
defense. The camels are made to lie down
just inside, and are tethered with the
strapped leg, to which the head is tied in
oriental fashion. Inside of these bulwarks

are the young people treated with such
consideration. Two days are national hol-
idays for the children The third day of
the third month is the girls festival. In
every family you will find dolls in large
numbers arranged in one of the rooms re
served for this purpose. These have been
handed down from one generation to an
other Every mother presents each of her
girls with doll everyiime this festival
comes around, and as the dolls are never
destroyed, in time they become quite
numerous The boys holiday is the fifth
day of the fifth month On the morning
of this festival, the boys, after passing
under the BARRIERS hands, with clean
shaven heads, and dressed in their best
clothes, go to the temples and offer a
prayer and then start out for a lark. In
front Of every house in which boy has
been born you will see paper fish flying

oh, sweet innovation! Whenever the heart
With burden of sorrow is laden,
Wen put on our hat. for the BARRIERS we'll
start,
To be chinned by a beautiful maiden.
We know she won't bore us with talk about
trade,
Or base ball, or dogs, or athletics,
Or prize fights, or ballet girls lightly arrayed.
Or urge us buy her cosmetics.
She won'e boast of MASKING the swells of
the town,
Or how many young fellows adore her;
She won't say we're getting quite bald on
the crown,
And that we should use her restorer.
She'll talk about parties and hops by the sea,
OF bonnets, and ribbons, and laces,
OF fashions. and dresses, and feathers, while

An, who would not ioyfully listen all day
To the chat of the beautiful chinner?
And maybe she'd flirt, in an innocent way,
When the boss had stepped ont for his
dinner.
Come, let's bid adieu for u season to care,
And fly to contentment's sweet harbor;
Well rest in the patent adjustable chair,
And be shaved by the young lady barber.

Godin, by his discovery of making
culinary articles with cast, instead of
sheet-iron, saved some money. In 1850
he set to work at Guise and established a
cooperative association, having a capital
to be limited to 100000 francs. To-day
the ratable value of the concern is over
one million francs. Godin's theory is, to
have collective, side by side, with in
dividual riches; to make the material
arrangements of the home react on the
habits and on the moral and intellectual
qualities of the occupants, and so empty
the dram-shops; to associate the workers
in the profits of their labor, in the con-
tro! OF the association, and the manage
ment OF all that concerns their united
well-being; to accord the most perfect
liberty to the members and extend to
others what they desired for themselves
that which constitutes true Justice and
Christian morality. There are
THREE CLASSES OF INDIVIDUALS
Composing the society-associates having
a voice proportionate 10 double the value
OF their dividends; members to the ex
tent of one and half, and simple
participators, simple voice following
their earnings. All can qualify to be
associates by saving up to possess shares.
Everything il decided by the suffrage
vote, such as new appointments, promo
ton, etc. Every year fetes are held in
spring to recompense and honor the best
artisans in presence of the united colony;
in autumn, in a similar end, for the
school children. The women are voters
and fill situations as clerks, besides the
n,1ioortr aN-Aoufinpu in tho chnrc ntn
Education, medical aid and indictments
are free; orphans are reared. By series
of mutual associations no member can
suffer from want in the event OF sickness,
incapacity to work, or old age, there are
pensions. The mind is never tormented
by the prospect OF slack season, or the
consequences of unemployment. The
future of the workman and his family are
assured. His life is surrounded, in point
of material well being, with all the
advantages science, experience and
economy can secure, His liberty is in no
way compromised. His conduct is amen
able to the verdict of the vote OF his fell
low-workers.
The Director, Councilmen and similar
officials are salaried The profits of the
Association are made up from the factory
productions and the sale of food, etc.
Out of the gross profits are written off the
interest to shareholders, the expenses of
education and recreation and the sub
ventions to the several mutual associa-
tons. Out of the balance, or net profits,
% per cent is carried to the reserve
fund and the redemption OF the scrip, so
that in a short time the members will be
the sole proprietors; so per cent to the
workmen and the remainder to the
salaried officers and special recompenses.
In a word, all adherents are paid pro rata
to their claims and services. It only re-
mains toadd that where so much comfort
exists and the future of life so we'll
guaranteed, law, order and morality are
not only at home, but enthroned.

ENCOUNTER WITH A CALIFORNIA
LION.
A Narrow Escape From One of These
FerOciOuS Beasts.

The Alpine, Cal, Argus says: On We'd
nesday of last week D. R. Hawkins had a
narrow escape from death in an encounter
with a California lion. He was returning
to his place on the road between here and
Woodfords, from sheep-camp, near
Hawkins peak, having been to see the
owner on business. When coming through
a narrow canyon, thickly covered with
underbrush, he heard a slight rustling in
the bushes as il caused by quail. Previ-
GUS TO this he had noticed the footprint
of some large animal in the path, and
being on the lookout for the animal
ITSELF he quickly looked in the d.
rection from whence the noise pro-
ceeded. Imagine his surprise on seeing
huge California lion creeping stealthily
upon him, and not more than eighty
yards distant With wonderful presence
OF mind, Mr. Hawkins eyed the animal
intimidated the lion and it stopped sud-
denly to watch its intended victim. For
a moment Mr.. Hawkins took his gaze off
the animal, when it again began to APP
proach him; but was halted as before.
Feeling that his situation was becoming
critical, Mr. Hawkins sprang upon log
that was close by, and, removing his
jumper, while watching the lion all the
time, he began to wave it about
furiously and shout at the top OF his
voice. Such actious served to keep the
animal at bay. but it seemed not inclined
to be thus robbed OF its prey, for it still
remained about seventy wards distant
glaring at Mr.. Hawkins. He had a re-
volver with him, but refrained from
shooting the animal, fearing that he
might only inflict wound that would
madden it; but he now fired one shot
over the animal, which frightened it, and
it bounded away into the bushes. Mr..
Hawkins came down from the log and did
not linger long in the vicinity. He de-
scribes the animal as being one of UNI
usual size, as it stood about three feet
high. He thinks that it was an old lion
from its grayish color.
