Picturesque costum. of the Greek.


When the Greek whirls round in his native
dance his skirts, which circle and circle fold
within fold, expand like the petals of a thick
leaved flower, and remind you Of the pict-
ures which we have seen Of the dancing
dervishes. The same material is continued
up above the belt, and is often inclosed in
O richly embroidered waistcoat. A loose
frock coat, frequently Of blue, of the gentle
blue, or short cloak, is the winter garment
Kneebreeches of homespun white wool reach
to the knee, while from below pair Of long
stockings Of the same material, generally
white, but often of dark blue, are drawn
above the knee and fastened below the knee
with plain black band The red fez or
skull cap, with its black or blue tassel sur
mounts the head and gives crowning finish
to thu whole of this most natural and pict-
uresGue costume.
Of course there are slight variations intro
dSced, as. for example, the cloak of white
unshorn wool or of goats hair, the cap Of
greenish gold velvet, and other less irpor-
tant details but, in the main, this is the ma
tive costume, which certainly holds its own
against the growing innovations from Eu-
rope. For, it may be mentioned, that
though geographically included in the first
quarter Of the globe, yet the Greeks, and
all who live in Greece. speak always of
going to Europe or coming from Europe
when they aIlnds OF the lands ilnme-
diately west Of themselves II Is the rare
combination Of eastern and western life
which gave TO Greece its versatility ard
nauysidedness In the past and still inparts
to the Greek character and intellect certain
attributes which place it without q rival in
the society Of tbs world-Corinth Cor. Bos-

The Daisies Touched Her Heart.

Last year when daisies first opened their
golden eyes, a simple little woman entered q
Fifth avenue coach with huge bunch of the
flowers in her hands, In the corner sat a
naughty looking dame, shoulders square and
head erect. You would not have thought it
possible to touch a womanly spot in her
heart The daisies did it, though She
looked very sad and sober for a minute
Then the tears welled up to her eyes, and she
burst out like child, leaning forward and
laying her hand on the little woman's arm:
"Oh, tell me, are the daisies out so soon7 Are
there any buttercups yeti" The little woman
answered with eyes wide open. It seemed so
strange thing TO her, but when she left the
coach she left half the bunch of flowers on
her sister woman's knee. Frank Leslie'S

Machinery in the Earroom.

Corks are now pulled by machinery, ice is

Climate and Drinking Habits.

That climate affects the eating and drink
ing habits of men is well understood, but
some Swedes who did not take it into &C.
count the other day had a unique vertical
ton of the rule A well known artist who
is from Sweden imported the materials for a
grand supply of Swedish punch the other
day. The principal component of this
punch is arrack. Any able bodied man in
Sweden can drink quart Of it in an even

compounded the punch and invited four or
five Swedish friends to come to his house, all
sat down to revive convivial Swedish memo
ries But this is not Swedish climate, and
they were only able to drink less than pint
apiece Worse than that, not one member Of
the party felt any inclination to leave the
house until the next day.-New York Sun.

Dire Results OF Dress Reform,

1t would be curiously interesting to inquire
what has modified the ''evilsn Of our grand
mothers toilets into the tolerably sensible
apparel worn by women in this year of 1883.
Perhaps the interminahle crusade of newspa-
per and science journal esayists Imagination
staggers at the effort to picture the direful
dearth Of topics that would affiict these
wordy philanthropists were the whole race
Of American wonen TO put into practical
operation their suggested dress reforms
Ii we were simultaneously and dutifuIiy to
adopt divided skirts, broad. heeiles shoes,
combustion garments Of sanitary flannel,
loose waists with never an artificial bone or
brace beneath them, short skirts, few in num-

med mats; If were 20 sSchew wells, gloves,

Much has been said as 70 the position best
adapted tosleep. Speaking generally, it may
be said that the position upon the right side,
il the majority 81 cases, Is best suited to the
requisites of brain rspose. Various theories
have been advanced with the view Of explain
ing the superiority Of this position, but they
are on the whole unsa tisfsctorT. As matter
Of experience, however,, with the exception
Of those who suffer from lung or other
chronic affections, the type OF sleep obtained

Mania and Malaria.

Drs. Lemoine and Chaunaier communicate
to The Annales Aedico-Psycholo their
conclusions upon the relations existing be-
tween malaria and certain disorders Of the
mind, from which it appears that violent
mania may accompany an attack Of inter
mittent fever in predisposed persons, and
that old subjects Of malaria, with masked
manifestations, are liable to recurrent intel
lectsial disturbance, or TO chronic insanity.
Quinine gives good results In intermittent
mania and its conyalsscsnoa Ii is apparently

SWEDISH LOVE SONG.

The white gull sweeps on bending wing across
the tumbled sea,
The white dove knows where lies her nest, how
ever far it be;
And as they both seek home with Joy, so turns
my heart to thee,
Dearest!
No tide that flows, no rushing wind that spurns
the golden west
No river bearing laden barks upon its heaving
breast,
Is stronger than the constant love that knows no
sleep nor rest,
Dearest!
There is pearl that lies asleep where deep seas
thunder low,
There is no mountain bloom that mods where gla-
ciers shine below,
To win for thee, no path too steep or hard for me
TO go,
Dearest,

issues were involved in this campaign {;

who remembers the record OF the Repub-

hands can afford to vote the Repubhcan

The good people here are very much

Walker, Robert Pollard, and DR.. j. h.
Bland an executive committee, who are
pushing the matter vigorously.
The late rainy spell played sad havoc
with the fodder and there seems to be
general inquiry by the farmers for rye
which they will SOW for grazing or for
cutting green, and thus supple
ment the supply of long food until
clover comes IN. | notice Lespe-
deza or Japan clover growing along the
roadside almost the entire length of the
county, and IN some of the poorer sec
tons. where the land has been turned
out it has taken almost complete pos
session. am told by persons living in
these sections that stock of all kinds are
very fond OF it, and that it is very fat
tening. Some years ago a Rev. Mr..
Mott. Of North Carolina, wrote q glow
ing description of this grass, and later
Mr.. George Watt, the plow-maker of
your city, after trip through the
South wrote such an account of it in
the Southern Planter. saying that
it was q wonderful grass and that
tho half had not been told that
some Of our farmers were induced
10 believe that if it could be introduced
here and thrive our old fields would be
made to rejoice and blossom as the rose,
and wrote 10 Mr.. Mott for some of the
seed. They got little bags which were
sah to contain the seed and sowed it,
bat if any of it ever came up they did
not recognize it. 1t has but recently
Appeared here. and how il got here no
one knows but it is here, and if it con-
tinues to spread and does what isclaimed

own pine tree and eat a plenty of fat
beef and mutton.
