The Family Oven In Greece.

On inquiry found that there was not,
as rule, in Greece, as there is In New
England, any regular day for baking.
Washing and baking take place when
these are needed The cooking Is done, in
many instances, out of doors. mmedi-
ately outside of the house, close to the
corner, you often see the family oven. It
is Like huge hens egg, made of baked
clay, with the narrow end pointing up
ward In the side Is large round aper-
ture, which is the door. and at the apex
is small vent for the escape of the
smoke. This Is closed by stone as soon
as the cooking is done. A large number
of the houses consisted of four walls Of
stone, covered with fiat roof overspread
with earth or grassy turf. Where there
was any escape for the smoke, it was n
rude chimney consisting of four small
| piles of stone, which supported a fiat slab,
/ to prevent the wind Of heaven from inter-
fering with the smoke. But found In
many instances in Megara, and elsewhere
| in Greece, that the smoke was allowed the
freedom of the house, and, where 1t did
! not creep out unwillingly through some
doubtful hole in the roof, 1t generally oc.
| cupied itself with blaokening the rafters
or inducing certain laclirynose condition
of the eyes. which was extremely painful.
Owing to the steepness of the hill, the
wall which we passed In the rear of the
house was often not more than few feet

netter rhan an Accident POLICY.

It is proverbial that drunken man
seldom gets hurt--in fact, a good load of
whisky is said to be better than an acci-
dent insurance policy. A few days ago
some young fellows were watching with
interest the efforts of pedestrian along
Dearborn street to make his course lit
tie less zigzag. 1t was the width of the
walk that bothered him rather than the
length, when q sudden sidelong plunge
threw him up against an ash receiver that
stood upon the edge of the pavement, and
over it he went, tyirning complete
somersault, landing fat on his back in the
gutter with crash that would have
broken every bone in sober mans body.
Amusement was quickly changed to anx-
iety, and one of the spectators, rushing
across to the prostrate man, endeavored
to raise him, and seeing signs of life,
asked him where he lived. The answer
satisfied him that there was no occasion
for alarm. "Where do liver" said the
man. II live right here; come in, boys;

The Operation of Lfthotomy Perform F. ed on a Horse.
 From the Cincinnati Enquirer.l
 In the presence of a number of veterinary surgeons and horsernen, on a pile of sawdust
 at the stable on the corner of Fifth and Park,
 at o'clock yesterday afternoon, Dr. Daniel
 Bailey, the veterinary surgeon of the Police,
 Patrol and Mounted Police Department,
 performed the difficult operation of itho-
 tony. The patient was valuable blooded
 bay mare six years old, and belonging to MT. Watson, of Lockland. Having cleansed the
 animal, sha was cast with rigging made fos the purpose, which was composed of a stout breast-plate and eide ropes with 6 cross rope from each leg' which drew the legs all togeth- CT and prevented the animal from kicking or striking. The calculus was located by the doctors left hand, and with his right hand pressing pair of twelve-inch forceps through the urethrs, which the forceps dilated, the calculus was seized, snd, without making any incision or producing any hemorrhsge, was taken out. It weighed four and one half ounces and was as large as good-siEed ! duck egg. It was composed of salts and | inorganic matter. Before the operation the mare was chloroformed. A sponge was sat urated and, covered with 8 rag, held over her nostrils. She struggled violently at | first, but in ten minutes lay as limp as rag \ and motionless as log, and so continued dur ! ing the twenty five minutes that the operation l lasted. It was a complete success. When I released from the rigging the mare arose and snorted 8 sigh of relief. An antiseptic | dressing was applied, and her ladyship went l to nunching hay as if nothing had happened.
