A Turkish Lamp.Liehter.

This functionary is a tall and gaunt
Mussulman, with fierce mustache, an
embroidered scarlet jacket, and huge
"fustanelle." He carries a ladder. a
box of lucifer matches, and huge
green cotton umbrella. He plants his
ladder against wooden post, on the
top Of which common tin lamp is in
securely fastened, and taking off the
glass chimney opens his umbrella to
keep off the wind. The handle of the
umbrella is tucked under his arm. and
then balancing himself on the ricketv
ladder he proceeds to strike a light
with his luciiers, carefully protecting
the splutteling flames with both his
hands. Naturally this is slow pro-
cess and by the time the dozen lamps
are lighted everybody is safe at home.

Wcman Suffrage.

Tet no man or woman be mistaken
as to what this movement for woman
suffrage really means. We none Of ua
want to turn the world upside dow1f
or to convert women into men. We
want women, Oh the contrary, sboya
all things to continue womanly-wom4
anlv in the highest and best sense
and to bring their true woman's in
fuence on behalf Of whatsoever things
are true, honest, Just, pure, lovely and
of good report to bear upon the con-
duct of public affairs. Some people
attempt to meet the claim of women
to representation by the absurdly ir-
relevant remark, for cannot call it ah
argument. that women householders
ought not to vote for members of Par
Lament because they cannot be police
men and cannot be soldiers. Who
wants them to be either policemen or
soldiers? There must always be q
certain division of labor between the
sexes. The physical constitution of
woman fits her to perform certain dn-
ties Oh which the welfare of society in
high degree depends. The physical
constitution of man fits him for GER
tain other duties. one Of which is that
of external defense. And there are
certain other duties which men and
women must undertake jointly and in
cooperation with one another, and
from which the total withdrawal of
one sex or the other is fraught with
danger and mischief. Those who are
in favor of woman's suffrage maintain
that the duty of loving ones country,
of understanding her interests, of en-
deavoring to influence public affairs
by the choice Of men of high character
and true patriotism to serve in Parlia-
ment, is one which is incumbent on
women az we'll as on men. There is
nothing in the nature of q woman
which fits her to be policeman or
soldier; and there is nothing in the
nature of woman which units her
to love her country and to serve her
by helping to send good men to pro-
mote sound legislation in Parliament.
People sometimes talk as if fighting
for ones country were the only way of
serving her. Surely that is taking q
very one-sided view of q nations in
terests. All work we'll done, all service
in lifting up the lives of others to
higher level, call we have wished or
hoped or dreamed of good" forms the
real treasury of national greatness. I
have no wish to disparage the useful
ness, the necessity, OF the army and
the police force; but civilization owes
quite as much to that great host of
silent, busy workers, of whom at least,
half are women, through whose labors
alone there ia ANYTHING worth rreserv-'
ing, as to the army and the police
force for preserving it.-Alrs. Faucet,

Boston's Rich Men Forty Years Ago.

No longer ago than the year 1851
$4,000 made large estate, and $780,,
900 made it's owner rich man. Only
ten residents of Boston in that year
were millionaires. The Appleton fam,
lily made three of this number-Nathan
Appleton was worth 81 500, 900, Samuel
Appleton, his brother the same, and
William Appleton, his cousin, $500, 900
more. All three began life poor,
Samuel with six and one-quarter cents.
The dry-goods business and manufac-
lures gave them fortunes, which they
priating his entire income beyond his
family expenses to benevolent pur-
poses. John Bryant made million
and half in the Northwest coast and
China trade. Ebenezer Francis, who
also began life poor, made three mill
ions in the East India trade; John l..
Gardner and Thomas Wigglesworth
made half that sum iii the same way,
and Joshua Sears as much in West
India trade. Abbott Lawrence, then
minister to the Court of st. James, had
three millions, and his brother Amos
half as much, and their house was the|
heaviest American goods house in the,
country. Thomas Il. Perkins, famil-
iarly known as "Long Tom" Perkins,
began his mercantile life in st. Do
mingo, and, when driven away by q
revolt of the slaves, came back to Bos-
ton, began trading with China, and
acquired large fortune. David Sears
inherited 100000 from his father, the
largest amount ever inherited in New
England up to that time by q single
individual. Robert G.. Shaw was called
in one Of the leading newspapers of
that day "the oldest active merchant in
his city, as he is the most opu1ent one"
William Sturgis was another Cape Cod
sailor who commenced life poor; he
rose to the command of his ship, finally
monopoliZed the Northwest coast trade.
and became rich. John E. Thayer is
the only example Of broker who also
was millionaire, and John Welles of
land Spectator. There are no law
yers in the above list. Indeed, the
returns in the profession have never
been so large as to make a lawyer a
millionaire, though the Boston bar has
held most distinguished place not
only in our Commonwealth but in the
country. Several, however, were then
numbered among the rich men of Bos-
ton.-Bosto1a Herald.

Labrador,

From the map Of Labrador, published
in a recent issue Of the Proceedings Of
the Royal Geographical Society, to
illustrate Interpretations OF Mr.. II. T.
Holme, it appears that large portion
of that as yet almost unexplored ron
insula may, from the existence of a
continuous waterway, consisting of
lakes connected by rivers, be in GER
tain sense considered as an island. This
chain OF lakes and rives stretches from
Ungava Bay to Goose Bay, at the head
of Hamilton Inlet. Five considerable
streams find their way into Goose Bay,
including the Kenamou, which is used
as one OF the routes from the south, the
Nascopee and Grand River, both of
which communicate with Lake Petch-
ikapou. The interior of Labrador, ac-
cording to Mr.. Holme, who has assembled
all the rivers that enter Goose Bay as
far as they could be navigated in boat,
is not hy any means the desert region
which the dreary aspect of the coast
would lead us to infer. At distance in
land OF about twelve miles luxuriant
forest commences, and clothes the entire
country except the barrens OF moors,
which are the home Of the caribou. The
interior forms a vast tableland, the
height of which IS Given by Prof. Hind
ut =, 24O feet allow the sea. The long
and narrow Lake Wiminikapou is situ-
ated on the line of Grand River, which
is by far the largest of the rivers of
the district, at distance OF about 1870
miles from its mouth, and below the
elevated tableland. Thirty miles higher
up the river are the Grand Falls, the
exact height OF which is not known,
but which are probably among the
ioftiest and most stupendous water
falls in the world, since over them and
over the rapids Of thirty miles of river
course Grand River descends at least
1900 feet. The Indians of the interior
belong to the Cree nation, and are
probably the most unauthorized Indi-
ans to be found at the present date
upon the North American continent.
