The Women of Austria.

A writer in the american Register says that
up to fifteen years of age Austrian girls are
kept at their studies, but are not deprived of
society. They dress very simply, rarely
wearing silk gown until the day they leave
the school-room for the ballroom. After
they leave school they go through years
or even two years teaching in the pantry
and in the kitchen, under some member of
the family, or even, in some cases, in another
family under trained cooks. They may never
be required TO cook dinner, but they are
thus rendered independent of cooks and SER
wants, as they learn how to do everything
themselves long before they begin house
keeping on their own account. When mar
ried they are most affectionate wives and
mothers. An Austrian lady, in fact is as ac-
complished and learned as an English gov
erness, as good a housekeeper and cook as a
German, as witty and vivacious in society as
Partisan, as passionate as an Italian, and as
handsome as an American, some of the most
beautiful women in Europe being found in
Vienna. Germans and also Austrians are
celebrated for their stocks of linen. Here, as
soon as girl is born, the weaving of her
linen is begun, and every year a piece or n
certain number of yards is set aside for her
trousseau, ready for marriage. Grandmam-
mas, on their side, are not Idle. They pass
their time knitting for their grandchildren,
supplying not only their wants, but also lay
ing aside for the future dozen dozens of
stockings of every kind, being the usual mum.
Der of any brides trousseau, and some of
these knitted stockings are as fine as the fin
est woven ones. An Austrian girl or lady,
is never, may say, seen without some kind
of work in her hand.

The first mutton lambs of the season are
often sold for ten dollars head. The expense
of raising these lambs consists first, in hav-
ing good mutton rams, and then care and
warm quarters, with liberal feed of corn
and oats, with little oil cake, will do the
balance. The ewes kept warm and dry and
fed well with oats, middlings, and corn, one
third each by measure, will give good sup
ply of milk.
Lambs can be taught TO drink cows milk
and putting oat meal in the milk the lambs
will grow in surprising manner. Young
lambs to grow fat must be kept warm and
have dry bed. Bright clover hay for sheep
is the best Lumber is cheaper than it has
been for ten years; if the country yards have
not reduced their prices they ought to it can
be bought by the Car load in Chicago for
eleven dollars, and green piece stuff one dol
lar cheaper. With these prices, and the pre-
sent prices of oats and corn, farmers have no
excuse for not making their lambs fit to sell
at four months old. All the feed in the world
will not make early lambs fat, and worth ten
dollars each, without they are kept warm.
| Warm and light quarters will last years and
pay q large return on their cost, every winter.
| For the amount of capital invested in the
sheep they can be made to pay larger return
| than any other stock, even in those times
when wool is cheap, if mutton and early
| lambs are raised striving to get them earlier
and better than any one else Breeders

Effective Irish Wit.

A few weeks since, an Irishman, direct
from the old country, called upon well
known Bostonian, presenting letters ofintro-
duction from mutual friends in England.
- The Bostonian received him very cordially
and proffered glass of brandy, which the
Irishman drank with relish.
After some further conversation, the
foreigner said,-

How Altar Of Roses is Made.

From the Chicago Journal.
The altar of roses of commerce is produc-
Ell ON large scale in the Turkish province
of Roumela, and principally on the warm
southern slopes of the Balkans. The same
article is also made in Tunis, India Persia
and the south of France, but the quantity
produced is small and the prices so high that
very little is exported. The Roumean altar
is made from the Rosa damaScena by distilla-
ton. The color of this rose is generally red,
though sometimes white, and blooms in May
and June. The flowers are on trees that aver
age about six feet high which are not only
planted in rows, but are tended Zealously
from autumn till midsummer. The flowers
when in full bloom are pluckcd before sun
rise, sometimes with, sometimes without the
calyx, but only in such quantities as can be dis
titled on the day that they are plucked. The
still is plain timed apparatus, from which
a long curved tube is directed through tub
of water and into large bottle. The still
stands on Il stone hearth, and usually in the
shade of trees near running stream. The
firing is done by wood The still holds from
twenty five to fifty pounds of roses, which
are covered with twice that quantity of water
and boiled half an hour. The distilled liquid
that passes over into the bottle is allowed to
stand, when the altar rises on the surface and
is skinned off, the water ultimately being
sold as rose water at Constantinople. The
altar is kept in copper cans and the rose water
in bottles A rose tree is at its best at its
fourth year, an acre of four-years old trees
producing from one to two tons of flowers
and 1000 pounds of flowers producing one
pound of altar. Much depends on the spring
weather, as rains and frosts lily affect the
bloom,

Shot and ShOt-TOWers.

Ordinary bird shot, or buck shot, is made
by pouring melted lead into colander in
rapid motion at the top of a high tower
Masses of fluid, in falling, tend to the form of
a globe, and the molten lead follows the gen
eral law, and falls in spheres of greater or less
size, according to the holes in the colander,
and finally plunges into bath of water at the
bottom
Shot.towers vary in height from $50 feet
upwards. The tallest is at Villach, Austria,
and is 249 feet. Most of our large cities have
their shot-towers, some more than one, be-
cause shot is such a weighty article to ship
about by express or freight that it pays to
have a tower, in order to supply the demand
in city of any considerable size.
AT the top of the tower are the furnaces for
smelling. Very great care is necessary in
mixing the metal, as il would run through tine
holes and drop in strings if not of the
proper proportions, and no shot could be
made at all After the shot is taken out of
the water at the bottom of the tower, it is al
lowed to run through an inclined trough into
a receiver, which dries il thoroughly. From
the receiver it goes into rumbler, where it
il cleaned. Afterwards it passes through a
screen on to several glass tables, which are
separated and inclined, each one lower than
the one before it, so that the shot falling on
the first, roll down and jump over the slight
space intervening to the next one, and so on,
to the last The imperfect ones fall down
the spaces between the tables, and are melted
up again, but the good shot are collect
ed and put into huge brass cylinder. per-
forated with holes, from the size of No 10
shot to the largest size. All the shot
which do not go through No. 10 size, go on
to No. II, and if they will not go through
there, to some larger size where they will
Each cylinder has a large box underneath,
which holds the shot when they fall These
boxes are taken to the packing department,
where some black lead or graphite is mixed
with it, giving brilliant polish to every pellet.
Buck shot are kept in a particular receiver
from which they pass into cylinder which
revolves and polshcs them, They are thrown
out, few at time, on an inclined wooden
table; the imperfect ones stand still, but the
good ones roll off.-Goldcn Aryosy

Patience'with the Liyin

Patience with the Living.
Sweet friend, when thou and are gone
Beyond earth's weary labor,
When small shall be our need of grace
From comrade or from neighbor;
Passed all the strife, the toll. the care,
And done with all the signing,
What tender truth shall we have gained,
Alas, by simply dyingl
Then lips so chary to our praise
Will tell our merits over,
And eyes too swift our faults TO see
Shall no defect discover.
Then hands that would not lift stone
Where stones were thick as cum Der
Our steep hill path, will scatter flowers
Above our piilowed slumber.
Sweet friends, perchance both thou and |
Ere love is past forgiving,
Should take the earnest lesson home
BE patient with the living.
To-day's repressed rebuke may save
Our binding tears tomorrow;
The patience-e'en when keenest edge
May whet nameless sorrow.
'Tis easy to be gentle when
Deaths silence shames our Glamour,
And easy to discern the best
Through memory's mystic glamour;
But wise 1t were for me and thee,
Ere love is past forgiving,
To take the tender lesson home
BE patient with the living.

There is no "looseness Of the contract" or

the provisions are to be found necessary to
carry out the fundamental idea upon which
the contract was based--namsly: good work

the advisory board are the persons Whitney
is hunting. Chandler defends the board and
assails Whitney for preconceiyed determ
nation that the Dolphin should prove a
failure, and for putting new engine to It's

He then quotes the stipulations as to the
conditions OF the Dolphin's trial. as provided

THE last issue of that bright aud Il

The last issue of that bright aud tren-
chant, but sometimes capricious journal,
the San Francisco Argonam. contains
startling editorial on the Indian troubles
in Arizona. Editor Pixley emphatically
affirms that there is no such thing as an
Apache war in progress, unless the phrase
be applied to cowardly plot of thieves
and contractors to exterminate the last
remnants of brave and grievouslv
wronged tribe. He contends that the
fleeing Apaches are almost unarned and
are being mercilessly hunted through the
hills. From our knowledge of this fam
lily of Indians" continues the Argonaat,
''and from what we know of the wrongs
that have been perpetrated against it by
the Mexican government and the govern
ment of the United States, We do not
hesitate to say that our sympathies are
with the Apaches and we wish we could
hope that in the conflict now being waged
against them, and other conflicts that will
follow, they could be successful against
and triumphant over their enemies;
we wish they could drive the cow
ardly, drunken gang of Arizona cow
boys and volunteer Arizona blackguards
who are on their warpath into an ambus-
cade and murder them; we wish they had
the arms and the opportunity to give our
personal friend. General Crook. and his
army good, sound thrashing, SO that
they might for once dictate terms OF
peace, and just for once bring their bloody
raid to termination, and make just one
treaty that should be dictated by the vic
torious Indians" Doubtless these stric-
lures are not unprovoked, and it may be
quite true that the Apache is more sinned
against than SHINING. The Indians have
been grossly swindled by government
agents in the past, and their lands con-
stantly excite the cupidity of unscrupu'
lous white men. Nevertheless the bloody
trail left by Geronimo and his braves does
not verify the assertion that the Apaches
are unarmed, and their ferocious pastimt
of impaling white babies on meat hooks
is not calculated to arouse sympathy fol
them.

HARVARD TAKES THE eoAr-RAcE

NEW LONDON, Conn, June &c The time
for the Harvard Columbia freshman race
was set for 1890 o'clock Thursday morn
ing. At that hour the boats were at
tho starting point, which was the
twc-mile flag of the naval sta.
ton. After a tedious wait the
boats got into line, and the word @Go" was
given at ll:l5 Both crews took water sim
ultaneously, with little or no splashing,
Harvard rowing forty strokes to Columbia's
thirty-nine. Both crews kept side by side
for the first 100 yards, and then Harvard
drew slowly ahead, and continued TO
increase her lead to the finish At
the mile and half Columbia had
run her stroke up to forty four, while Har-
ward held up to forty. Harvard reached
the one and one-half miles in S:57x. and Co.
lumbia in s:37. Harvard pulled away for
the finish in excellent shape rowing forty
two strokes on the squirt, and crossed the
line, an easy winner by ten lengths. The
time was: Harvard, - minutes % seconds;
Columbia, IL inmates and IL seconds. The
Columbias rowed WELL but were no match
for the Hsrvards
