will shortly adjourn"
They ADJOURN responded the senator,

there that the services of the associate JUS

Their dresses are often too costly and

A LOVE LETTER.

Go, little missive, over the land
Go safely over the sea
To your destined home on a distant strand,
Where warm your welcome will be.
You are only closed with fragile seal
That will break with the slighte st stroke,
But the treasures you hold are safe from harm
AS If bound in bands of oak.
With trembling hand have written outside
A name that many will see;
But Of all who read only ore will know
How dear is that name 10 me.
Ihave folded deep in your dainty leaves
What scarcely dare disclose
secret as sweet AZ the balmy breath
That hides in the heart OF a rose.
But you'll guard It well, my messenger true
Guard it with tenderest care;
For the dear, dear one, who, Of all the world
Alone may its sweetness share.
He is waiting for you. and watching now
oh! white winged herald OF love!
Watching, as wave-tossed mariners once
Watched for the wandering dove.
Then iy, little Traveller, swiftly fly
To the true heart far away,
And show the blessed angels on high
4 mortal as blest as they.

A case Of much interest 10 befrofhed
people has just been decided uron an
appeal in the Scottish court. A lady
brought suit for breach Of promise
against young man. who admitted
Of having been engaged 10 her. His
defence was that she opposed his
smoking. and finally used the words:
Choose between me and your cigar.
He chose the cigar. The Judge Of the
lower court held that Ia giving her
young man the choice Of the two ~
ternities she became responsible for
the choice made. The higher court
sustained the decision, and the ex-
lover now puffs his cigar with feel

this case there will be perveise people

Turkish Cuisine.

Rousseau has said that from the food of
nation you can tell its characteristics. If
this is true no better spot for the study of
ethnology could be found than Cavalla.
Doubtless, if it be desired, an opportunity
will occur of dining with many nationalities.
By all means accept an invitation to dine
with a Turkish pasha, says a writer in Corn
hill for August. had the pleasure of tax
ing meal with the governor of Drama, who
is passing rich for Turk, seeing that he
rules over the plain where the chief tobacco
farms are, and his opportunities for amassing
wealth are many and varied. Silence and
expedition are the chief characteristics of a
Turkish meal. The 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, con-
sisting of rice or barley, meat or
boiled fish, cakes seasoned with vegetables,
roast lamb, BEANS species of rissole wrapped
up in vine leaves, the inevitable pilaf and
fruits, and, as wine is forbidden, an intoxi-
eating substitute is found in liquors and
brandy Each person has his glass Of sherbet
by him, and his piece of unleavened bread,
for the Turks love half baked dough- 1t will
comfort the European to see every one wash
his hands before his meal, for forks are I'M
known, and each is expected to dip his
fingers into the savory morsel as it is handed
to him. During the whole of the feeding
process scarcely fou ror five words will be ut.
tered, and at the most your repast will last
twenty minutes, but then afterward, with
the coffee and the hubble-bubble, converse
ton will flow freely. To the Turk eating is a
serious gastronomic exercise, which will not
admit Of any conversation being entered into
during its progress. -Gossl Housekeeping.

.Ianan.s Commercial Rondaae..

1t seems that since the treaties entered into
with the great powers in 1885, Japan has
been stripped Of her control over her own
commercial affairs. This progressive nation
has no power over her own tariff. Japan has
no jurisdiction over single foreigner, each Of
whom must be tried in the consular court of
his own country. Foreigners are also ex-
empted from all taxation. Foreign ships pay
no light tonnage nor harbor dues Thirty
seven millions of japanese are in these essen
tial respects kept in practical subsection to
less than twenty-five hundred foreigners.
This humiliating bondage has been character
lied by a foreign official as ''howling
shame"
Escape from the condition that thus con-
fronts Japan is not easy. There are sixteen
treaty powers whose assent she must get be-
fore one modification Of the existing treaty
can be had. Little powers like Portugal and
Peru can block the way towards more
liberal policy by refusing to assent to any
treaty revision. Great Britain, whose COM
merce with Japan is largest, seems unwilling,
for some incomprehensible reason, to take the
lead in the direction Of equitable dealing.
Russia and the United States stand ready, as
usual, to do unto others as they would wish
to be done by Germany, next to Russia,
seems most inclined to favor fair play and do
what simple justice demands. If France,
which appears non-committal, would join
the four leading powers in sanctioning
revision Of the old jug-handle treaty,
the smaller powers would doubtless
acquiesce in the decision reached Hold
ing Japan back In its progress towards
high civilization is not an attitude
which the more civilized nations can afford
to assume Hence it would seem that if
England, the United States, France and Ger
many, whose commerce with Japan is largest,
would insist upon the emancipation of that
country from commercial thralldom which
is at war with the spirit Of the age Japan
would be left free to work out her own COM
mercial salvation. Frank Leslie's Newspaper.

No Stoves in Rome.

If you propose to do as the Romans do, you
will have neither open fireplace nor stove,
says a correspondent of The Philadelphia
Telegraph. You will spend about So and buy
a brasciere. A pan or plate stands upon
three legs about four inches from the floor,
and the cover to this is generally dome shaped,
about foot and half in height, of polished
brass in ornamental design. In the pan part
you put about soup plateful of carbonella
or gas extracted charcoal, and on top of that
some live cinders. You then fan the cinders
until the coke is all ignited. Once ignited, it
burns itself 1t burns very slowly, and you
sit above the embers, coaxing warmth and
headache, until the upper part of your anat-
omy is chilled through. You then find it
necessary, in order to get warm, to go out
for walk or so to bed.
This is the chief Italian method of house
warming for rich and poor alike. On the
same principle, there is another instrument
called the scaldino, which is made Of terra
Gotta, is bowl shaped, and has base of about
the diameter Of coffee saucer. Live Goals
are placed in this. 1t is likewise a favorite
of both rich and poor. You may see the
poor match vender huddled up in the corner
of church step with her scaldino on her
knee warming her hands; or find the cozy
little porcelain bowl under the princess feet
as she receives you in her drawing room, with
her fur cape over her shoulders and her
hands in her nluff.
