WHlTEwAsH.- The following Is a re-.
oipe for preparing whitewash: Tako the
very best stono limo and slack 1t in q
close tub, covered with q cloth to pre-
servo tue steam. Salt--as much as can
be dissolved in the water used for slack
ing and reducing the iime-should be
applied, and the whole mass carefully
strained and thickened with a small
quantity Of sand, tho finer and purer
the better. A few pounds OF wheat
flour mixed as pnste may bo added
aud will give greater durability to tho
mass, especially when appiiod to the
exterior Of buildings. With pure lime,
properly Stacked and mixed with twice
its weight Of fine sand and sifted wood
ashes in equal proportions, although
any color may DO made by the addition
OF pigments, granite, slate, freostono
and other shades may be Initiated, and
without any detriment to the durability
OF the wash, This covering IL very
often applied, and with good eifoot, to
undorpinnfng, stone fences, roofs and
the walls of barns md other outbuild-
ings. Probably the pure whitewash is
moro hoalthy than the ooiored, as it's
alkalescent properties arc superior, and
when used in cellars, Kitchens and
sleeping apartments produce salutary
results. No person who regards the
health Of his family should neglect to
apply coat OF it every spring. Coun.
try places, especially farm houses.
fences, oto., aro greatly improved in
appearance by an annual COAT OF white
wash, and will add to their permanency
much more than many would imagine.
It is oheap, and 30 easily applied that
neither expense nor labor can bo pleaded
against 1t. H

Uncertainty Of the Law.

Here is another instance of the glori-
Gus uncertainty of the law. The case
of the father who caught diphtheria
from sucking a tube to draw out the
"diphtherian matter in his child S
throat and brought an action against
the doctors in consequence, has already
been twice trieG-the first trial ending
in disagreement, the second in a YER
dict for the doctors. A divisional court,
yesterday, ordered third trial, which.
just 10 complete the fitness of the thing,
will no doubt end in a verdict for the
father. We will refrain. however. from
pre- :udicing the legal aspect of the case,
and will content ourselves with point
ing out that very interesting question
of ethics was involved in the argument
yesterday. Lord Coleridge had assumed
that the paternal instinct would have
made the father suck the tube IN any
case. and did not think. therefore, that
his not having been warned of the dan
ger made any difference. But the
judges decided yesterday that the faith
er ought to have been told o. the dam
ger and thus to have chad the alterna-
tive presented to him whether he would
suck the tube or not" And this is
clearly the view that most schools of
ethics would take of the matter. for
where was the virtue of the self-Sacri-
flee of it was not dictated by the rea-
son?-PdU Mall Gazette.

Leading a Calf.

About eight o. clock Yesterday morn
inc a woman appeared on Michigan
avenue in company with calf. In this
instance the calf was veritable animal.
and was being led with q rope. Whether
she had taken it from the pound or was
on her way 10 the market. she did not eX-
plain. She hadn't time TO after she got
down as far as Fifth street The two
had the middle of the street and were
rather enjoying the promenade. when
the calf suddenly concluded that CITY
life was too rich for his blood. He
suddenly halted in bis tracks and braced
his fore feet at sharp angle. The
woman kept en- her way for a minute,
and when the strain came she heightened
that cali' S neck by six inches. 1t was
no 90, however. she braced and he
braced. She pulled and he pulled. BY
and by he began To back and gain on
her. Her feet slid along for yard or
two, when she sat down and got her
foot against the street car rail. 1t was
now time for spectators to tender their
sympathies and advice, and remarks
began to come in.
.IIold to him, Old woman-you We
got the bulge
Shut your eyes and you'll fetch
him.
''Fish on your fne-pull him in"'
Along came a grocery wagon, and the
hub of wheel rubbed the calf. He
jumped clear OF the ground and took a
half-circle around the woman, pulling
her over on her side No one offered
any assistance, and when the coming
car forced her to take a new post Oh
she scrambled up and got a neck-hold
on the calf. He At first broke down and
began to bawl. but suddenly took heart
and made a run for the sidewalk,
dragging her along. The crowd
advised her TO pinch his ears, throw
him down, call for the police. She
was silent and grim. She had a firm
hold of his neck and pulled him back
into the street in spite of his bucking.
To the casual observer he was a gone
calf, but as she stopped to tie her shoe
boy stuck pin into him and he sailed
right over her and brought such strain
on the rope as to fling her down again.
1t was now a question as to whether she
would pull his neck Off or he would
draw her across the street, but when
the strain had continued for fifteen
seconds the rope broke and the calt
went off like deer. Apoliceman who
had arrived too late to be of assistance
thought 10 offer some consolation, but
the woman made pass at his nose with
one of her dirt-besmeared hands and
snapped out:
''Shet up. If there'd been a decent
man in the hu crowd he'd have twisted
that calls tail for a poor lone widder
without my asking"'-Detroit Free

London GTsscii-SSs. |"

There are in London close upon three
thousand pawn-ShopS, end the fact that
all of these do thriving trade from
nine o clock in the morning until seven
in the evening tells the tale of the ex-
treme poverty OF a large section of the
population of this great city with no
uncertain voice. | have recently visited
a number of pawn-shops of all kinds.
from the palatisl establishment of the
Messrs. Attenborough, at the corner Of
Fleet street and Chancery lane, to a
grimy, dark, little hutch of place IN
the purHeus of Shoreditch. From the
result of my inquiries of the London
pawnbrokers it is safe to assume that
on an average at least one hundred
pledges are taken in daily at every one
of these establishments This estimate
is. no doubt, below the actual facts. as
at several large establishments was
informed that on . busy day from one
thousand to fifteen hundred customers
are often accommodated. However,
basing my calculations on the above es-
innate. it seemed startling TO find that
six hundred thousand people are COM
PEELED to obtsin small or large advances
everyday on dress, jewelry and house
hold goods. The amount of capital en-
barked in this bushes In London is
enormous. The MeSsrs. Attenborough,
who have half dozen shops in different
parts of the CITY, have at least E500, 600
embarked in their business. They are
immensely wealthy, and the present
generation are all men of large wealth,
landed estates. and two of them are
also members of the liberal professions.
These gentlemen, with the exception of
two members of the family, do not take
any active part in the business. The
Attenboroughs will lend money on any,
thing. The family diamonds of half
the peerage have been at one time or
another in their keeping. They will
not refuse to advance money on a car
rage and q pair of horses, but the bor-
rover will have TO pay for the keep of
the animals and the storage of the We
hicle until he redeems the pledge. The
firm / speak of, however, do nine-tenths
of their business in jewelry, and if they
know the parties seeking the advance
TO be respectable and trustworthy they
will lend within a very little of the
actual value of the articles offered. The
interest the pawnbrokers here are al
lowed by law to charge is twenty per
cent, and they always take care not TO
lend more than the article will fetch if
it comes to be sold by auction. More
ever, large proportion of the articles
pawned are redeemed within few
days, and as no matter how short q
time the loan is made for, months in
terest is charged, it is evident that the
business of pawnbroker is an uneom-
monty profitable one.-Cor. San Fran
cisco Chronicle.

Military Berlin.

One certainly sees more soldiers in
the streets of Berlin than in those of
London and Paris, but one does not
see many of them, and they form al
together but q small minority of the
people one meets when walking about
Berlin. And that is easy TO explain:
soldiers do not play at soldering here as
French schoolboys have done latterly.
Fighting is considered by the Germans
business, or q trade, or an art-as
YOU NAV Ike to call (which is to be
learned very seriously, and which keeps
the.young men, who are noens vOlenS de-
voted Ioit, during almost the whole day in
their quarters or on the parade ground.
AS TO the officers, they are nearly as
much taken up by their work a. the most
hard working official, mercantile clerk,
or artisan. The Lieutenant of the guards,
who has nothing TO do but to show his
fine uniform in the streets, exists only
in the imagination of people who have
never seen him. That aristocratic
young gentleman generally begins his
work at six O'Clock in the morning in
summer and eight O'Clock in winter
and is tired out when at five or six
o'clock in the evening he has at last
got through it. 1t is not he, certainly,
who crowds the streets of Berlin. He
has other things to do than to walk
about even when he happens TO be on
leave. There is, however, something
military to be seen in the streets of
Berlin at nearly every hour OF the day,
which NAV have struck the Partisan
newspaper writer, though it does not
belong exclusively to Berlin, but TO all the
larger German towns where soldiers are
garrisoned. Every now and then, eS-
pecially about noon, you will meet
small attachments of soidiers-four,
six, perhaps ten or twenty men-march-
ing from the guard-hOuse to relieve
the sentries on duty at the palaces Of
members of the Imperial family, the
residences of commanding officers and
certain public buildings such as the
Ministry of War, the stats office, the
arsenal, etc. These soldiers, proceeded
by sergeant, walk in the middle of the
street with long. regular. quiet steps,
almost leisurly. Suddenly a sharp
word of command is heard. An officer
Or an Imperial carriage is in sight. The
men all at once seem TO have been
struck by galvanie battery, and from
that instant to move under some strange
and irresistible influence. With kind
of spasmodic jerk straighten them
selves up to their full height, their heads
and shoulders are thrown back. their eyes
are fixed on one and the same point
the passing officer; the rifle is held in
firm grasp by the powerful hand, and
the feet violently thrown forward as by
machinery, produce, as they tread. the
hard pavement at short, regular in
tervals loud and yet muff1ed sound,
familiar to the native of Berlin, and
which causes him to look round toward
those from whom it proceeds~-BIacE-

A japanese Monument.

The growth of modern ideas in Japan
has been significantly indicated of late
in the erection by Japanese land-own-
er of an imposing monument TO c. ID.
Richardson, an Englishman, who died
in 1865 during the fierce struggle
against the outside Nations. Mr.. Rich
a<dson was hacked 10 death by the
guards of Japanese nobleman, and
his companions were cruelty maltreat-
ed. The affair was one of the causes
of the bombardment of Kagosheema by a
British squadron. in which |, 800 Japan
ese were killed and wounded and IS, 000.-
900 worth of property was destroyed.
Then indirectly also the murder led to
the suppression of feudalism in Japan
through the agitation which followed.
and the monument now set up is APP
parently recognition of that reform
as much as of the man whom it honors.
1t is placed on a mound on the spot
where he fell, and is inscribed with
verses recording his virtues. and pray
ing ''that the thoughts of the blessings
he brought us may gladden. his heart in
the land of the shades. - Chicago Irlt-
