Turkish Girls.

From the English Illustrated Magazine.1
 The pleasures of Turkish girls are e1- tremely simple and limited. Shut out from that limitless world of entertain ment which the literature of civilized countries opens up to the European child directly she can read, with the exception of festivities in the harem on red-letter days, her pleasure consists in an occasion al picnic or accompanying her elders on the visits which occupy such large DOT ton of Turkish lady's time. On house. hold festivals or great religious fessts wealthy people will often organize enter tainments on a very elaborate scale. Gip- sy dancers or a troop of clowns with some sort of pantomime or show are engaged for the occasion, and the neighbors, rich and poor, are invited to the performance. The Turks being exceedingly hospitsble, 6 friend of the hostess is free to bring all her sisters and her cousins and her sunts, with their families, on such occasions. ThesN are high days for the Turkish girl for Ter elders too-though an English child of ten or twelve would think the en-

 The dances are at times rather graceful, and the music, when one is used to it-ev- erything depends on your being used to it -isnot always excruciAting; but the coarse, almost brutish humor of the pantomimes would be decidedly distasteful to & west ern audience. A more pleasant side of Turkish girl life is that which may be seen any day in early summer at the Sweet Waters of Europe or some other fAvorite resort on the outskirts of Constantinople. The family will set out in the morning, and, spreading their rugs in come field, spend the day there doing nothing, and apparently very contented with the occu- patton The women squat on the ground with their feet under them in that pecu- liar manner to which they are indebted for their bandy legs. It is not romantic, but truth compels me to state that all Turkish girls ultimately become bandy legged; the fine, wel-made women one occasionally meets in Stamboul are mostly CircAssiAns. A few cakes and some rahat lAknoum or other sweet sufices for both young and old. A stranger is invariably struck with the premsturely serious air that Turkish children wear. The elder girls do not play and run in the manner that English peo- pie expect of healthy children. They sit or stroll about quietly and gravely, their yashmaks loosened and forming 8 snow white framework, which displays to ad vantage their complexion. as yet unspoiled by paint and powder. On the approach of 8 man they will hastily draw over their yashmak, not % close however. that the stranger cannot admire their face if he has 8 fancy for Turkish beauty, which, though in girls and young women some times very attractive. is too frequently of the half f-bred Tartar type, lacking intelh- gence and refinement.

HAVEN CONN. FRIDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 20, 1891.

'Tsrael's Identification Association" which Israel are the British people. An address has been delivered before it by the Rev. Philip Carlyon, who argued that the ten lost tribes migrated from the regions near the Euphrates to the Carpathians, from there to the shores of the Baltic, and thence in the course of time to England, so that the ancient English were of Hebrew origin. The Rev. MT. Carlyon quoted from the Book of Esdras the statement that the ten lost tribes "wandered across the sources of the Euphrates to region called Ar sareth," and he said that this statement was corroborated by Herodotus, contem- porary of Esdras.
 Count Taubenheim, of Wurtemburg, who has just retired from the public service, was known in the seventies as the recipient of more medals, decorations and orders than any other man in Europe. Posses ing the confidence of his king, he was sent upon countless missions to foreign courts, and returned each time with new dis functions. While returning from a jour ney to the Court of Holland few years ago, he became the victim of a ridiculous mistake. The customs officers on the bor- der of Germany would not believe that any single man could possibly possess so many decorations. The trunk of orders, with the jewels and precious stones, convinced them that he was jeweler attempting to smuggle goods across the border. They arrested him and for time refused to listen to his explanations. The unfortu- nate count finally, by the use of the tele- graph office, convinced the guardians of Germanys boundary that he was an official. Bismarck, Moltke, Emperor Will liam and Emperor Frederic, even in recent years, were the only men entitled ts wear so many ornaments upon their breasts at Taubenheim.
 A company at Msysville, Kentucky, is manufacturing gas at cost of five cents per 1, ,000 cubic feet. The machine used is comparatively inexpensive, simply in con- SurucIlou, duu cdu Do opeTdleu py tWO men. A million and half cubic feet of the gas are made every day for commercial purposes. The process of manufacture is described as follows: Steam is first gotten up in the boiler with coal; then kindling- wood is put in the base of the cupola and ignited; then the blower is started, which furnishes air to support combustion in the cupola. Coal is fed through the top of the cupola into the chamber, perfectly sealed, by the ordinary cupola bell-feed. Then by lowering the bell the coal is dropped into the kindling below and com bustion takes place. It has been discov- cred by experience that it takes 2S0 cubic feet of air to support combustion to @ pound of coal The bed of coal is kept at incandescent heat and the volatile product is thrown off as a monoxide gas; and the product is made volatile by virtue of the forced combustion supported by the con. tinuous force of air at the base of the fire There are no by-products such as coke, tar, or ammonia. Nothing is left but g very small quantity of ash, iron, and
 silica. By the use of hydro-carbon ol | camel coal the gas can be enriched to any desired candle-power of illumination.

Attempts are making in Germany to substitute for pontoons the dried skins of cattle The skin is opened at the tail and drawn off the animal without cutting the breast. Then the head and tail are her medically sealed, and when wanted the skin is inflated. A number of these strung on ropes are stretched across a stream. long beams are laid upon them and fasten- ed down, and then the boards of bridge placed across. These can be carried much easier than pontoons.
 The following passage from Archdeacon Farrar's last book is making some stir: teWhere would be the popular teachings about hell if we calmly and deliberately erased from our English Bible the three words 'damnation,' 'helr and 'everlastinga' Yet say unhesitatingly-I say, claiming the fullest right to speak with the author ity of knowledge-I say, with the calmest and most unflinching sense of responsibil- ity-I say, standing here in the sight of God and my Savior, and it may be of the
 angels and spirits of the dead, that not one of these words ought to stand any longer in our English Bible, for in our present acceptation of them they are simply mis translations."
