Spanish Irreverence for the Dead.

Wherever one goes in Spain the irreyer-
ence for the dead, and as matter of
course the recklessness Of life, are what
most prominently strike traveller. The
people seem actually to be Indifferent to
manslaughter On the slightest provoca-
tion blood is shed, and the moment re-
volver is heard in the street or a shrek
from murdered man, every door is shut
and there is scurrying of feet in direc-
ton opposite to that in which the assassin
has fed Everybody is afraid of being
seized rs the criminal.
Not night during the hot, dry summer
passes without the cry Of fire being heard
In Spanish town. Any person in the
street at the moment can be pressed to aid
in extiaguishing the flames. But it is
rare that any one is found to perform this
duty, for at the first cry of fire, prudent
citizens take care to get under shelter. In
the interior, and even in the large cities
on the coast, the cemeteries are in de-
plorable condition. It Is not an uncom-
mon spectacle to see body flung across
mule, or even two being carried in this
fashion to their last resting place, amid
the heartless, often brutal, comments of
the bystanders, who, notwithstanding,
always doff their hats, out Of half-super'
sttious feeling, the exact character of
which never costs them thought. These
traits refer mainly to the country folks,
or to the towns-people of the poorer class.

Lopcz, the yyrant of Paraguay.

When Lopez conscripted the men of q
district he drove the women and children
from their homes and compelled them to
sustain themselves in the woods as best
they could. This was done that the SOL
diers might have no homes to lure them
from the ranks. The inhabitants perished
of exposure and hunger by the hundped
thousand Still, the soldiers endured all
things in order to resist the invaders. At
the close of the war the population was
reduced to less than one-fourth of what it
was before the war. Some sections of the
country suffered much beyond the aver
age. In the district of Villa Rica popu-
lation of 1O9,7 776 in 1866 was SO cut down
that even in 1877 it had only come up to
11,779. In the department of Villa del
Filar the population of 169, Al was reduced
to 1O,OO2 Even in the capital the $4,000
were so reduced that now, in spite Of the
fugitives and refugees who gravitated there
after the war, there are only $4,000. These
figures tell the stories of cruelty, suffer
ing, and courage that need no COMMENT

Labor in the Sandwich Islands.

The labor problem in the Sandwich
islands has always been perrleXing. Tho
government is now encouraging Japanese
immigration, but the people are found to
be unable to endure the hard work on
sugar plantations. There is said to be
great dissatisfaction among the Portu-
guese, who were brought to the islands
under five years. contracts, and large
numbers whose contracts expire in few
months are preparing to 60 to California.

@She is very intelligent.
"But bad tempered, eh'"
"That depends how one looks at the
question: said Abrahemk:: "As general
rule it isnot worth while to attach much
importance to what women say, nor worth
while to bear them any ill-will for it, But
with her it is different. She can not be re-
fused consideration. And, you know,
when O. man allows himself to be i'll
treated by woman, that woman must be
worth the trouble Of it. Veigele Is
worth it,"
"Then you are quite content with you
wife?"
"Why should not be "~..ieat? Who is
happy in this world? Only the man who Is
content with his lot. And she is good
wife! Even Count Skarbek always kisses
her hands; well, why should he not kiss
them? She has pair of little hands as
soft as velvet and as white as ermine.
How the man ever managed to WOO anc
wed such little love of O wife, can not
imagine; but as I left Abrahamek's house
I could not help rejecting that this greatly
and variously gifted artist was also
philosopher! He absolutely represented
the "Kiaus" type of Jewish Socrates. Any
how, with such Xantippe as that. felt

l do not know to what further brilliant
destinies my Abrahamek may have been
called in after days; and still keep ask
ing myself what was really his special tai
ent. Most assuredly it did not lie in the
art of making clothes! ,.'
Next day he delivered my suit, thanks
to the influence of pretty Veigele, no
doubt. But alas! there was one thing she
could not prevent, namely: That, even
while he Yves cutting and stitching, her
husbands mind should have been occu-
pied with u thousand golden or rose-col-
ored reveries, or absorbed by some ingeni-
GUS poetical composition, or lulled into
day-dreaming by q host of touching and
harmonious melodies. The frock coat was
wrinkled in the most awful manner, pe-
sides Icing great deal too long,-On the
other hand the pantaloons did not even
reach my ankles; and>-I found it,utterly
impossible to button the vest.
And nevertheless, my good Abrahamek,
do not wish to pick II quarrel with you,
if it is only for the sake of that adorable
little wife of yours, whose smile is SO
gracious, whose eyes are so lovely, and
whose dainty hands are soft and smooth

Charming Hours with English Hosts.

Charming Hours WIFI EnSllSH hostS'
The interval between tea and dinner
was to me one of the most charming per-
iods of. the English day. If it is autumn,
the afternoon light is fading, the curtains
are drawn, few candles brought in, and
the newspapers are spread upon the
tables. People who really want to talk
with each other seize this opportunity,
and YOU can have cosy chat in corner
with a clever woman or discussion with
celebrated man in politics or people, or
society, or art l often at this hour made
more acquaintances with my host than
at any other time; or perhaps with some
distinguished guest, who was willing to
bestow his attention ON stranger.
The newspapers suggested the themes
of the day, and the flood of illustration
that men who knew English life thor
oughly would pour upon questions and
events that were unfamiliar to me, was
very acceptable The elder women, too,
sometimes fingered in the freight, and
when they found me curious about fagSay

A Word About Insects.

For millions of birds and fish in
sects serve as food. "All flesh is
grass" in a literal sense; for take
the plant louise, or aphis, whose
bloated body appears to be merely
an animated green bladder of the
juices of the plant upon which it
exists; this is eaten by the lady
bug, which in its turn becomes the
food of some bird or fish, whose
flesh serves to nourishI that great
omnivorous animal, man. Were
there no insects what would be-
come of all the insectivorous birds
and still more of the fresh water
fish, An old hen confined in a
coop with her chickens loose
around her will clear large space
of insects in a short time; yet a
spring chicken is considered a
dainty, although a week previous
ly it may have been rioting on a
fare of crickets and caterpillars,
In many tobacco plantations flOcks
of turkeys are turned into the field
to eat off the tobacco worms; yet
what is better than good roast
turkey7 Nay in several places if
we are to believe travellers, men
eat insects. A palm tree grub, well
roasted, is considered great deli
cacy in some countries; in others,
grasshoppers, or rather locusts, are
preferred. Insects also act as scav-
engers in removing decayed animal
substances; others, again, rotten

Good Rules for Telling Horses
Ages.

The full grown horse possesses
twenty four back teeth, that is, six
in each side of each jaw; these are
called molars, or grinders. He has
twelve front teeth, that IL siX ON
each jaw. Mares have no tushcs.
The foal has either at his birth or
shortly afterward eight milk tectht
that is, four on each jaw; at abou,
twelve months two more milk.tceth
come in each jaw. These remain
unchanged till he is three years old
The mouth of the yearling and two
years.old cannot be contOunded.
The yearling month shows no signs
of use, and the corner teeth are
shells only; at two years old these
teeth are strong and well-grown,
and the corner teeth filled up. a
little before three years old the two
centre teeth of each jaw fall out.
and are replaced by permanent
teeth. a little before four, the two
teeth on each side of the centre
teeth are replaced by permanent
ones A little before five, the
two remaining teeth are shed,
and in their place come permanent
ones. The two upper milk teeth
usually fall out first.
Thus the mouth is complete as to
its front teeth; the corner tooth
however, is but impertectly devel.
oped, being at present shell only;
this shell at six years old has filled
up, and is a complete tooth. This
is the difference between "A five and
a six -years.old. The tushes appear
between three and a half years and
four years old, and they take near
ly two years to arrive at their full
growth. These teeth, as the horst
grows older, get blunter and short

A fine frosting can be made OF
one cup of granulated sugar and
one-fourth cup of milk, without
either egg or gclatine. Method
stir sugar into milk over slow
fire till it boils; boil five minutes
without stirring; remove from fire;
set saucepan in cold water, or on
ice, while you stir it to a cream.
Spread on a cake while it will rise.
The advantages of this trosting are
that it will keep longer than the
egg or gelatine trosting, and it will
cut without breaking or crumbling.

the learned Principal decided TO introduce
some old style physc in the applesauce,
and await the happy results. One bright
lad, the smarte,t in the school, discover
ed the secret mine in his sauce, and push
ing back his plate, shouted to the peda-
gogue, "Physic, sir, in mine. My dad
told me to use nuthin' but DR.. Pierce ;

doing their duty like a charm!" They are
