"No, you mustn't. It's easy enough.
And insist that you behave just like
all old married men do. DO you hearp"
Well, darling, I'll try, but know |

The first evening of their arrival tho
bride retired to her chamber and the
groom fell in with poker party, with
whom he sat playing cards until A
o'clock In the morning. His wife
spent the weary hours weeping. At
last he turned up and met his grief
stricken bride with the hilarious ques-
ton;
"Well, amt doing the old married
man like daisy"
She new referred to the subject
again and everybody knew after that
that they had just been married.

Russia in 1881.

The Russian NOrOc IrCnyd reviews
the year of 1884 in series of articles,
in which the affairs of the empire as Il
whole are described as being consider
ably better than they have been for
some years past. The maintenance of
order, the establishment Of better con-
troll over the administration, and the
rogained dignity OF the organs OF GOV
crnment have been especially marked
in the past year. The commission for
the reform of local administration has
counted among its members not only
those who advocate the Capitalization
of power, but the delegates of the self
governing party have been invited to
all the deliberations. One of the great
reforms marking 1881 is that of the
Russian universities, although it will
be long time before the benefits are
fully appreciated. New statutes for
ecclesiastical scminarics and acadc-
mics have been made, and attempts
have been made to increase the inilu-
cnce of tho clergy in secular schools.
A special commission has been prepar-
ing scheme for the establishment OF
system of technical schools such as
are common in Sweden. Measures
regulating the employment of children
in factories have also been lcgalizcd.
Among administrative reforms the es-
lablisiment of the government in the
Amur district and the incorporation of
Poland in the empire in matters con-
cerning the organization of the affairs
of the peasants are the most important,
Curiously enough, the financial posi-
ton has considerably improved in
spite of the continued commercial and
industrial depression. The expert
mcnt of building state railways having
proved too expensive, the construction
of the line Novorossisk, RoStoi-Vladi-
kavkas will be conceded to private
company. Recent legal actions against
banks have shown that the legis-
lation concerning them is in need of a
radical reform. The St. Petersburg
maratime canal has been completed,
the port of Batoum is now in the
course of development, and the canals
between the basins of the Obi and the
Jcnissey are progressing.

Mission of the Roman Empire.

The greatest work which tn
Romans performed in the world wa
to assume the aggressive against
mcnacing barbariSm, to subdue it, to
tame it, and to enlist its brute force
on the side of law and order.
This was murdcrOuS work, but it
had to be done by some one before
You could expect to have great and
peaceful civilizations like our own.
The warfare of Rome is by no means
adequately explained by the theory of
n deliberate immoral policy of ag-
grcssion-"infernal," believe, is the
stronger adjective which DR.. Draper
uses. The aggressive wars of Rome
were largely dictated by just such con-
siderations as those which century
AGO made it necessary for the English
TO put down the raids of the Scotch
IIighlanderS, and which have since
made it necessary for Russia to subdue
the Caucasus. 1t is not easy for a
turbulent community to live next to
an orderly one without continually
stirring up frontier disturbances
which call for stern repression from
the orderly community. Such con-
sidcrations 90 far toward explaining
the military history of the Romans,
and it is history with which, on the
whole, we ought to sympathiae. In
its European relations that history is
the history of the moving of the civ.
ilized frontier northward and eastward
against the disastrous encroachments
OF barbarous people.-John FfSke'
in Hayper'S Magazine for March.

Scah OH Potatoes.

The cause of the injury called
"scab" upon the potato has not been
well worked out, and it can not be as
serted as certainly known, Propably
several diseases are included under
this common name. But negative
point which may be considered thor
oughly settled, is that insects are not
the authors of the mischief. There is,
to be sure, an appearance of insect
work, but nothing whatever has been
observed to prove that they have any
thing to do with the malady, while
many facts disprove it. The disease
has been attributed to carth.wOrms,
but in this again we have only guess
work, and the negative evidence is
quite strong, One or more Sepcies of
fungi have been accredited with the
destructive work, yet little is really
known about these agents rather than
results. a fungus named mt!oc'onta
SOiani is found on potatoes leaving
either singly or in groups, little pus-
tules in the skin, making peculiar
roughness, which is called scab by
many. This, however is certainly
different from the corroded spots to
which the name is more appropriately
applied.
il any one will take the trouble to
look at the year-old twigs of most trees
and shrubs, he will readily find in the
bark, little light-colorcd, rough specs.
These are known to bOtanistS as lem
ticles, and consist of cOrk-like fOrma-
tions, the cells of which soon lose the
power of absorbing water, and of
course die. They are, however, nor
nal growths, and cannot be classed as
disease products. They likewise oc-
cur on the potato tuber, which it is
worth the while to remember is true
branch Of the stem, and in this respect
is like ordinary aerial branches But
it is claimed that under some circum-
stances these lcnticlcs are beginning
points of rupture and decay in the
skin, and that the final result of this
is the Scab, without the intervention of
any living, external agent. Too much
water and too much nitrOgenOus ma
nure are the principal causes given
for the cork-likc development. The
disease is certainly worse on rich and
wet land. In answer to the question
will say, that so far as known, the
depressed. rough spots on potato
tubers, usually called scab, are the
result of normal growths carried to an
excessive and destructive development
through surroundings adverse to tho
potato. and that there Is nothing of n
contagious character in the malady.
The scab on the seed can not, in this
view, affect the next crop. The differ
encc in the structure Of the skin of
different varieties is quite enough to
account for the facts noted in the letter
of inquiry. -Prdirjc Farmer.

MY LADY IN TIE SOUTH.


Ny ladydwels in sunny lands,
She walks BY ;ropc seas;
know where her fair palace stands
Amid the orange trees.
The ferv.d-hCartcd passion flower
Blooms in her garden cover;
The orchid hlbZcs by her bower,
The palm trees wave above her.
The sky that greets her upward view
In one vast sun lit dome,
Is like that Orb's ccrlllcan hue
In Gcsu's church ut Rome.
Aud when days glorlcs slowly die,
And wild birds sing no more,
The southern cross then hazcs high
The clouds Magellan saw.
Somc5ay when hills are growing dark,
And when long for rest,
III stCr anOarl my ] tile bark
And ste her toward the west.
And seek my lady in the land
Where sumner dies no more.
And when ! reach that tropic strand
My wand'rings will be DER.
And yet | know when cold, dark seas
Break on wiutry strand;
When snowy fields and lCailcss trees
Are over all the land;
lknOw tina, we're she with me now,
However cold and drcar
The winters wind blew o'cr my brow,
She'd make a summer here.

Opium in the United States.

In 1910 about 10000 pounds of
opium were consumed in the United
States; in 1880, 53S, ,450 pounds. In
1868 there were about 10000 habitual
opium eaters in the country; now they
number over 100000. More women
than men are addicted to the use of
the drug. The vice is one so easily
contracted, so easily practiced in
private, and so difficult of detection,
that it presents peculiar temptation,
and Is very insidiohs. To break off
from the habit the opium-eater must
reduce the quantity of his daily dose,
using at the same time other stimu-
lants, and gradually eliminate opium
from his bill of fare.-St. Louis Globe
Democrat.

Washington special to Boston Trdr.
ellcr: II is not likely that low-neckcd
dresses would form such constant
subject of conversation, as they GER
tainlv do. wherever few women are
gathered, if the newspapers were not
paying so much attention to them.
Neither the criticisms nor the undis-
guised look OF disgust which the ap-
pearance of an immodestly low-necked
woman creates affect them in the
faintest degree, This vulgar display
is an embarrassment to hoStesses, but
hardly party or reception occurs
where such may not be found in more
than one instance. There are num-
ber Of women-they can hardly be
called lades-who are making big
show here lately whose antecedents
nobody knows anything about, and
whose claim to social connections is
lust about as hazy. They have a su-
preme lot of assurance, and are famous
as the leaders of the decollete move
ment. Decent people have no patience
with the easy conscience that allows
women of this type to actually form a
social following, to give crowded par
ties and balls, which nice people seem
to be too prudish to stay away from.

The Medicinal Value OF Lemons.

The way to get the better OF the
bilious system with our blue pills or
ouinine is TO take the juice of one,
two or three lemons, as appetite Graves,
in as much water as makes it pleasant
to drink without sugar, before going
to bed. In the morning, on rising, at
least half an hour before breakfast,
take the juice of one lemon in goblet
of water. This will clear the system
of humor and bile with efficiency,
without any of the weakening effect of
calomel. People should not irritate
the stomach by eating lemons clear;
the powerful acid of the juice, which
is always most corrosive, invariably
produces Inflammation after while,
but, properly diluted, so that 1t does
not burn or draw the throat, it does
its medical work without harm, and,
when the stomach is clear of food, has
abundant opportunity to work over
the system thoroughly. -Metl'cd! NeWS

Iron Rule in Cuba.

The Spanish masters of Cuba main
tain an iron rule. Every man, it is
said, who expresses sentiment not
strictly loyal to the Spanish authority
is arrested and imprisoned. Conspir'
acy is punished by dungeon coniine-
ment or death, and this practice has
gone very far to encourage people not
to talk politics. OF frequent notice
in cafes and other public places is a
conspicuous placard bearing the signi-
ticant legend: "Pleasc do not talk
politics here" and whenever you
meet him, whether at home or abroad
the prudent Cuban, if he values his
life and liberty, or is possessed of con-
iiscatable property, keeps his political
opinions to himself. Tho newspapers
are all subjected to censorship, the
telegraph offices are under surveil-
lance of the police. and it is even said
that the mails are often examined for
reasonable documents.-St. Louis
