table preparations are few, but the dishes
are many; olives, caviare, cheese, etc, are
dotted about, and perhaps as many as ten
dishes are handed round on covered brazen
dishes, consisting Of rice or barley, meat
or boiled fish, cakes seasoned with vegeta-
bles, roast lamb. beans, a species Of
rissole wrapped up in vine leaves, the in
evitable pilaf and fruits, and, as wine Is
forbidden, an intoxicating substitute is
found in liquors and brandy. Each per-
son has his glass of sherbet by him, and
his piece Of unleavened bread, for the
Turks love half baked dough. It will
comfort the European to see every one
wash his hands before his meal, for forks
are unknown, and each is expected to dip
his fingers into the sayory morsel as it is
handed to him. During the whole Of the

will be uttered, and at the most your re-
past will last twenty minutes, but then

cnn Ynnr Rnv swim2

Can your boy swim? NOT Then do not
trust him in any sort Of boat until he has
learned the art, and feels as much at home
in the water as upon dry land. You
might Just as well send him out alone
into crowded street before he had learned
to walk. He might possibly creep along
oil right, and reach home alive, or some-
body might pick him up and care for him,
but the chances would not be in his favor.
So in boating, the boy who cannot swim
may get along very comfortably for a
while, and not suffer from this defect in
his education, but the time will assuredly
come when he will have cause to bitterly
regret it. It is Sae Of the simplest things
in the world, too, and can be learned in
three or four intelligently directed lessons,
such as can be had in any city swimming
school or from the experts In any country
village. By all means talk swim to your
boy before you talk boat, and stipulate as
one of the conditions of his having boat
that he shall first be able to swim a quar-
ter Of a mile without resting.-Harper

rno Chrd's voice i'm Singing.

Frederick S. Law, in The Voice, dwells
at length on some of the dangers of al
lowing children to sing in public, par
ticularly when under the care of ignorant
or irresponsible conductors. One case is
mentioned Of a girl who was permitted
to sing in halls large enough to test the
powers of experienced artists, and who
consequently, at the age of IS, although
she had started out with great promise
had no voice at all left. 1T is, =" says
Mr.. Law, las much of an impossibility
for a child to produce full and sonorous
notes as it would be to load it down with
heavy weights and expect it to walk at
once. Many who would regard the latter
as an act of cruelty will listen with com
placency to child straining every nerve
to fill large room with a voice that from
its nature is not intended for such use.
Mr.. Law concludes: "The instruction
of children, as regards the voice, should
be almost entirely negative-that is, they
do not require teaching what to do so
much as what not to do. They may be
trusted to form their tones as they please,
if they do not sing too loudly nor with
any undue effort. If these conditions
cannot be secured, they should not be
allowed to sing at all. Nothing is more
painful than to hear n child struggle to
fill a large room with a voice crippled
from an attempt to wrest from nature
what is not there. In no way can we find
compensation for such an exhibition. The
mind receives no pleasure, as there can be
no intellectual grasp of the subject, while
the ear is tortured by shrill and distorted
sounds which awaken natural anxiety
for the child's future welfare. A healthy
child possessed of a good ear is the most
natural singer in the world, because the
most unconscious. It is only when tam
pered with by those who should know
better that disastrous results are to be
feared. Brooklyn Eagle.

A Rallnonist,s Big Jumn.

''I have made" said Professor f. D.
Hogan, "163 ascensions and three jumps.
One Jump, made out in Jackson, is tho
biggest on record-9, 800 feet. Ishot down
400 feet before my parachute opened. The
popular impression is that the parachute
opens with a snap, but this is not so.
First one section opens, then another,
and so on by easy degrees, and as I've
watched it opening when it was just
above me and was thousands of feet up
in the air it reminded me of a rose open
ing in the morning.
''HOw did l feel when 1 made my first
jump? Oh, well, rather afraid l looked
down and saw the hills and fields away
below me, and the people looked barely a
foot high, and the buildings looked like
toy houses. l looked down and shivered
when l saw the space between me and the
earth, and then looked at the barometer
and found the distance to be almost one
and q half miles; but all the same l
jumped. I leaped into space hanging to
the parachute, and down I went like a
shot for 200 feet The parachute then
began to open, gradually lessening my
velocity. heard the peoples applause
very family. It roses,p to me like the
merest suspicion of a sound. afterward
learned they clapped and cheered for all
they were worth. The parachute was
oscillating somewhat, and 1 came near
being banged against several chimney
tops. The buildings are our greatest ter
ror. Many an aeronaut has been dashed
against a building and killed-more, in
fact, than being dragged over rugged
ground met with one accident. See
here" pointing to big bulb on his right
ankle. Il got that in Nebraska in Au-
gust of 1888 by being dragged over a
heap of rocks. Inever could bend that
ankle since-can't even stand on that foot
alone.
You sec a great panorama from bal
loon in mid air, continued the professor,
"but, of course, the landscape is all in
miniature and through slight haze. -

A blind Professors HeIpmate.

On washington street tho other day saw
Professor Crowell, Of Amherst college, max
ing his way rapidly along through a crowd,
guided by the faithful hand of his wife. It
was pitiful sight when one remembers how
bright his eyes used to be, and how they
would sparkle with fun. 1t is said by one
who is familiar with his family life in Am
herst that he has by memory all Of the
classics which he teaches His wife reads
over the lesson to him before he goes to the
class room, and so perfectly does he retain
what was in his mind years ago that he will
remind her that at such place no made such
and such comment il. note upon a particu-
lar word in the texS He is very popular
