The Duty of n Gentleman.

Never says Lord Chesterfield,
DO not eXalt yourself at the expense OF
others, nor indulge in n sneer; nor let
the temptation of saying a witty thing
lead you to do so at the expense of an
other" One might suppose from this
excellent counsel that its author was u
model Christian, or at least one of
those true gentlemen whose courtesy
IS of the heart. On the contrary he
was japanncd and high polished pie ce
OF human hoIlOwware, without n single
quality that should entitle q human
creature to love, honor or respect. The
context OF the above quotation displays
the innate meanncSS and selfshness Of
the man. This passion in people VIII o
fancy they can say smart things,n he
continues, "has made them more ene-
mics, and implacable ones, too, than
anything | know Of" His lordship's
reason for sparing peoples feelings
was not that malicious speeches hurt
them, but that they might injure the in-
terests of the utterer!
Half the elegant men-sO called
one meets with are of the same stripe
rs Chesterfield. Their pOiteness is
mere formula; there is no soul in it.
A man may be model OF department,
and yet a cold-blooded self-worshiper-
a mere Turveydrop, or something
worse. The whole duty of a Christian
gentleman is summed up in the Book
OF books in four words: BE pitiful; be
courteous" Whoever obeys these pre-
cepts Is fit for any society. He will
carry his welcome with him whereve r
he goes, and need not trouble himsel t
about the bylaws OF etiquette.

Mare and Foal.

The Farming World has this to say
concerning the treatment of mare and
foal: at is most injudicious, danger
Gus indeed to both mare and foal, to
keep the mare away from her foal I'M
til the udder is very much engorged
and distcnded. Inflammation may
arise in the udder, and unless it is at
once checked the life OF the mare is
endangered. Then il will be risky
for the foal to allow it TO suck the milk
from the inllamed udder. If there is
any reason to suspect that inflamma-
ton has begun Il portion OF the milk
should be drawn away by hand and
the udder bathed with cold water be-
fore the fOal is admitted. 1t is be-
lieved by some farmers that when n
nursing mare gets overheated at work
and returns to her foal with u full I'D
der, the milk, because of overheating
OF the mare, is liable to injure the
fOal. They therefore draw away a
little of the milk and battle the udder
Tith cold water. This idea, however.
10 not we'll founded. The mere heating
Jf the mare will not spoil her milk so as
TO endanger the foal, and unless there
is reason to fear that inflammation has
begun in the udder, The foal may be
admitted at once without any previous
stripping or bathing. But the over
heating OF nursing mares ut work is
very reprehensible, and should never
on any account take place"

q, A. X. BItton, Frauiulently Wora,

People who have noticed the little
bronze buttons on the lapels OF the
coats OF gentlemen they meet COM
monty suppose that wearerS OF the
buttons are members of the Grand
Army OF the Republic. The bronze
button ought not to be worn by any
one else, and the Grand Army as q
body does everything reasonable to
keep the buttons out OF the possession
OF those not entitled to them.
Recently q man wrote to the n. Y.
Sun to say that these buttons could
be had by any one willing to buy at
the pawushops of New York and
Brooklyn. A Sun reporter went to
half n dozen New York pawnshops
and was unable to buy one. At the
pawnbroker's at Brooklyn end OF the
bridge and at one Bowery shop he was
told that they sometimes had them on
sale. Comrades got hard up and
pawIed them and failed TO redeem
them. The price charged by the
brokers having them for sale they said
was twenty-five cents.

No Morse Fate for n Girl.

We can conceive OF no worse fate for
pure girl than this-to marry while
in a dream, says the New York Herald;
to exaggerate a mans good qualities
until nothing else is visible; to minim-
ize his vices until they disappear; to
have brief honeymoon of measureless
Bliss then to see the man as he is and
Us others have always seen him
coarse, common, vulgar, vicious. and
even cruel; TO learn to loathe him be-
cause he is q brute; to loathe herself
because she was such fool as to throw
her life away; to curse her parents be-
cause they did not take her by force
and throw her into cell, dungeon.
any place OF confinement, until she
came to her senses; to be beaten,
neglected, unprovided for, sneered at
by the man whom she once thought a
god well, to endure such fate as
that is so awful that even human
sympathy avails nothing to assuage
the sorrow .-.#

THE ORIENTAL WOMEN.
Harem Life Dull and Monotonous
to the Last Degree.


1t Is rather curious reflection that
IN those countries where woman's
rights are most completely non-exist-
ent, there the most womauly duties Of
woman are the most grossly neglected,
says the Fortnightly Review. Travel
ers in Egypt, for instance, tell it that
when the bells call the hour of prayer
every man stops whatever work he is
engaged in and ,prostrates himself TO
Allah. No woman takes any notice of
the sound. She Is too low in the, scale
of humanity TO make her tribute 20 the
Almighty worth OF acceptance. She
ranks in this respect almost with the
brute creation. She is not withdrawn
from her domestic duties by the claims
OF religion upon her time and thoughts.
And yet the stme travellers tell MS that
one OF the horrors OF Egyptian life is
the fearful neglect from which the
children suffer. Fz11
Three out of every five children who
are bo,ndie during Infancy and Of those
who survive one In twenty is blind.
This is being thoroughly masculine"
with veugeance,g and points, an in
upon the character OF women of the
denial OF liberty, education and re.
sponsibility. The harem life of
Orientat ladies of high rank is dull
and vacuous to the last degree. They
play with their jewels, eat sweetmeats
and smoke pipes, and thus the day
passes. II their children are ill they
are hopclessIy bewildered and utterly
unable to take care of them. sts atHe
They cling with touching reverence
to any average English or American
woman who may happen TO visit them,
and. implore her aid in doing the SIM
plest kind OF nursing. and mothering
for the ailing children. Nothing as
tonishes Orientals more than the posi-
ton Of women in England. A Chinese
mandarin has lately published his
views on the subject. Women, he says,
are even helped ut meals before men;
in his own country the men eat first.
and when they have quite finished, IT
anything is left, the women are allow
ed 10 have it. '. ..."'.
Another fastener. Seyd Ahmed, Khan,
was amlzed to find that tho servant
girl who waited upon him in his l1dg-
ings in London could read and write;
and he recorded his deliberate opinion
that the little scrub in Il London lodg-
