The Elevation of Men.

II0FDeF 8 -hGgt-tte
The attempt to elevate women, as il
is facetiouSly called. IS no longer IN eX-
pertinent: but how is 1t about the at
tempt TO elevate men by this round
about process? Are the men of the day
improving? Are the politicians, for in
stance, any better: do they read more :
do thep try to lit themselves by study
for legislative and executive posi-
tionS ; are they any better informed
on economic questions: are they
more sensitive TO reputation for hon
orable dealings are they more jealous
for the good name Of the country in such
a matter, say, as the international copy
right? And the young men in Offices,
in shops, in business, are they being
raised Intellectually, or do they share
proportionally in the great movement
for the elevation of the other sex? Ev-
cry one can answer this question for
himself by little observation of the
ways in which young men spend their
leisure time. And as TO the outward
relinements OF life, manners and dress?
Even in the industrial walks Of life,
does the young man dress with the neat
ness and 6ecomingnesS that character
ize the industrial young lady of the
period? Are these trfleS? 1t is by the
observation OF the ordinary in the con-
duct of men that the philosopher csti-
mates the drift Of the age. In this,
which has been triumphantly called the
woman's age, one is forced occasionally
to note what is becoming Of the other
half of the world,

the OccaSian which he recitoS in loud
SonOrOuS chant that appears to give all
present immense satisfaction. This over
the Shah SentcntlouSly says "Marak-
huS." which means ''you have leave to
depart" and the audience breaks up.
The following day, or, if high wind
be blowing, on the next calm day dur
ing the No KoOz the great annual horse
races are held under the auspices of the
Shah at the Royal Race Course just out
SIDE of the city walls. He has beauti-
full pavilion there built in two stories
with separate latticed balconies for his
wives. Spacious tents of embroidered
Stuffs are spread around for the benefit
of the cOurticrS. The course is circular,
little over 4 mile long. and the horses
60 around six times in each race. The
races are running machines. as tro:ting
is not a favored gait with Oriental horse
men. The Shah enters a number of
horses and prizes are given. The
Arabian stallion which he presented to
the United States Legation had won
several prizes at those races, and ever
after when he caught sight of the race
course it was difficult to hold him in be-
cause he became so excited at the mem
Ory of his former triumphS.
When the State ceremonialS and pa
geantS Of No kooz are over then the
people abandon themselves to unre-
strained j6llity and social intercourse.
The bazarS are cleared and every one
keeps open house, having, according t.
his means, confectionery and SherbetS
spread on the rug or table of the recep-
tion room for the visitors who call tC
exchange the compliments Of the season.
With the wealthy it is no small burden

allv a cock and a hen-sometlmes TWO
hens. but that is rare IL occasionally
happens that the old birds neglect their
Young. This is generally the result OF
the parents illness. In such case II
is not unusual for some other mother
bird in the loft TO adopt one or two
extra young pigeons and nurse them as
though they were her own.
Nurse them? Yes; it can be fairly
said that pigeons nurse their young.
Before the young birds are Matched the
setting hen begins to retain food In her
crop. There it undergoes softenlng
process until it becomes almost as milk.
when the birds are Matched the mother
raises the semi-liquid food to her
mouth, and with her bill passes her own
sustenance into the wide-open mouths OF
her hungry. helpless little ones. This is
continued for week, the mothers food
each day growing little harder, until
at last the young birds can pick up Tor
themselves and digest grain food.
All this, as can be readily appre-
ciated, must be facilitating to the
mother bird, and the tenderest care
and the most nutritious food are neces-
sary for the food of herself and her
young.
The best birds, most fanciers believe,
come from the March Matching, and
these are always the most sought for.
The old birds are permitted, however,
to breed until May, and are then put in
training for the racing season, which
usually begins in the middle OF that
month. 1t would be advisable. before Il
Matching, to write to David ;. Rogers,
of Philadelphia, the present race sec

Hypnotisin and Murder.
Ne,c iork Times.


1t is probable that substantial justice
has been done by the verdict in the trial
of Eyr audand Gabrielle Bompard which
ended in Paris Saturday. If ever Il
wretch was shown to be deserving Of
death by the gullotine Eyraud was the
man, and the sentence pronounced will
arouse no sympathy for him. The crime
OF Gabrielle was, according to the evil
deace, equally great, but Il French jury
is seldom disposed TO send a woman to
the guillotine, except during periods Of
political madness, and it was quite GER
tain that Gabriclle's weaker Intellect had
been dominated to some extent at least
by the stronger mind of her brutal part
ner in crime. What the world is to be
principally thankful for in the outcome
of the "Aifaire Gouffe,'' is that the the
DRY of hypnotic influence was not adj
mitted by the court TO be legitimate de-
Tense, and that no precedent for such a
defense in murder trials was established,
Whether Gabrielle Bompard is good
"subiect" for experiments in "hypnot
ISM was held by the court, practically
to be immaterial to the question at is
sue. She might be the best subject"
in the world, and not yet be held ire
sponsible for the commission of crime.
The science of hypnotism, if il can be
called Il science, is as yet too little un-
derstood 20 make it basis Of defense
for murder.

pigeon fanciers. Now and then the
pigeons will enjoy Il mixture of rape
seed, and will be the better for it.
With wholesome food, plenty of
drinking and bathing water, and IA
clean, dry, spacious loft, the young
birds will thrive, and daily open-air
exercise will strengthen their wings
and give them confidence in their abli-
ties. Let them have plenty Of exercise
