Gf they may be called such) of Albu-
querque. Past the wretched mud novels
of the stopped and wrinkled Mexicans,
who opened their weak eyes in indolent
curiosity which scarcely tempted them
to turn their heads for a further view.
They seemed to have nothing to do but
sun themselves in the doorways and on
long board benches by the side of their
mud walls. The only ones we saw en-
gagged in any occupation were those who
sat combing out their long, black hair,
and these were the women kind. If
there is spot on the face of the earth
without hint of home or cheer, it is
this mudbuilt town of winds and sands
and fiat topped roofs of Mexicans, Span
iards, Indians and cowboys.--Salt Lake

oueerest Animal in the World.

OF all the creatures that God has made
"under the sum-" as Ecclesiastes would say,
the most remarkable as well as the most
useless is the tuatarra, species of lizard
known to exist only in New Zealand. The
tuatarra grows to be from nine inches to
foot in length and may be said to accept
life's hardships with more indifference
than any other known representative of
the animal creation He is the very en-
bodiment of negative existence and does
not seem to care in the least whether the
sun sets at o'clock in the morning or
stays up till midnight He is almost in
variably found clinging motionless to a
rock on the seacoast, wholly oblivious OF
Indifferent to the drenching spray or the
binding sunlight. He has no thought
for the morrow" and to all intents and
purposes needs neither food nor drink to
keep the colors in his coat and fire in his
eye.
He has been kept for days, months and
years in a sealed glass case, his lethargy
| but slightly aggravated through lack of
| air. A recent writer on antipodean oddi-
| ties says: HE makes no noise, and moves
so seldom and so slowly that many persons
have watched those confined in cases for a
| long time, and then left them under the
impression that the creatures were only
stuffed specimens after all Yet the solemn
| blinking Of the golden eyes and the slow,
heaying motion of the leathery sides bore
sight witness of a sluggish vitality. "-St.
| Louis Republic.

Elactricitx in the Homo.

Great is the need for a good electric
motor for housework. 1t is no good to
talk about setting up in our houses neat
little dynamos that housemaid could
learn how to work in a few hours. The
housemaids never would learn, and We
should soon find the neat little dynamo
standing rusty and dust grimed in the
area, forgotten of man and maid.
If electricity IL to be any good in the
house, it must come in ready in box
potted energy which can be applied, like
grease, whenever it is wanted. In this
shape it may have a hundred uses. The
footman, instead of turning the knife ma
chine, will connect it with the electrical
motor, the cook will use it to turn the
handle of the egg whisk, the coffee roaster
and the coffee grinder, and to turn the
meat. In the laundry it will do our man
Cling and ironing In the stable it will
clip the horses, and in the gardeners de
partment pump the water and cut the
lawn. Everything, in fact, that now re-
wolves by the exertion Of muscular effort
will be arranged to turn by electricity.
! When the electricians have given us the
household motor, and not till then, shall
we be able to say that man has chained the
thunderbolt and made it an obedient slave

performing all acts affecting the COM
mon veal. Populous and powerful bee
communities sometimes relapse into
barbarism, renounce the life Of peaceful
industry for which they have become

roam about the country as freebooters,
plundering the smaller and weaker
hives and subsisting on the spoils.
These brigand bees seldom reform; If
they busily Improve each shining hour"
it is not to ''gather honey all the day

range the fields in looting parties and
ransack the homes of honest honey

bees often fortify their hives, barricad-
ing the entrance by thick wall, with
bastiOns, casemates and deep, narrow

Eduontinn That Women Seek.

1t is curious to note that the form of ed
ucation which women seem just now most
anxious to obtain is almost purely literary.
At time when men are loudly complain
ing that Oxford and Cambridge have al
most cut themselves off from the active
life of the country, and that by neglecting
the practical study of law, medicine, sur
gerry and technical production they have
resolved themselves into what would be
called at Continental university gigan-
tic Faculty of Arts" women are crowd
ing to these discredited institutions and
eagerly taking up the abandoned "arts''
as the latest and most complete form of
intellectual life open to them.
While men are beginning to assert that
they can no longer afford the luxury of a
university education, that they must leave
that either to the men of leisure or the
future schoolmasters and teachers, women
turn to it as perhaps the most practical
opening left to them. Perhaps they are
right. 1t is not impossible that in time
women's hands may have great share in
the higher secretariaI and educational
work of the country. But there is no form
of opinion more fuctuating than the views
of women as to their place and possibilities
in life.
The change of ideal from that of house
hold usefulness at the end of the last GEN.
tury to elegant usefulness at the beginning
of the present century has been succeeded
by strong bias toward literature and
culture. 1t is not impossible that this may
in turn be replaced by an experiment in
women's capabilities in the technical in
struction which is coming on as the practi-
cal balance to the literary activity of the
last few years.-London Spectator.

Use of the Telephone in Surgery.

A remarkable application has been
made by DR.. j. Mount Bleyer. In a case
of membranous Group intubation was
successfully resorted to. When the re-
moval of the tube became necessary it
had disappeared. Tracheotomy would
evidently have to be performed, but the
difficulty was to locate the tube. A del
icate metallic probe attached to an cleo
trio wire, the other end of which termi-
mated in telephone receiver, was passed
down through the larynx. AS soon as it
came in contact with the tube distinct
click was communicated to the ear
through the receiver. The exact loca-
ton having thus been determined, trache-
otomy was performed and the tube ex-
tracted. New York Telegram.

The manager Of the telephone az
change in Lisbon achieved distinction
some time since by connecting the royal
palace with the opera house at time
when the king was In mourning. The
telephone man also connected his own
house with the transmitters on the stage
Of the opera. and had wires with receiv-
ers attached all around his drawing
room On opera nights he used to in
vite his friends to enjoy the performance
at his house, and it was a curious sight
when some ten or twelve people were
sitting about the room in comfortable
armchairs with receivers 10 their ears
head telephones were used, so that there
was no necessity of holding up ones
hands all the time-and listening atten-
lively without uttering a sound beyond
an occasional exclamation Of delight or

In many towns the names Of streets
hnger unchanged for centuries The Vis-
itors to Antwerp can still identify the
Canal au Sucre, where, during the Spanish
Fury OF 1876, the dead bodies Of the muir
dered citizens lay piled half way mp the
houses, 5000 OF the inhabitants Of the city
perishing at the hands Of Alya's soldiery
during those awful three days, when, as
q contemporary expresses il, hell seemed
let loose"
In Sienna the city is divided into con-
trades, or parishes, each of which Is named
after some animal or natural object-the
owl, the goose, the tower, etc. There are
seventeen Of these divisions, and residents
in them give as an address the name OF
their contrade, which has come down un-
changed through the centuries. st. Cath
crime, of Sienna, resided in the "Oca"
(goOse) contrade, and the name is still un-
altered. These different divisions Of the
city each run horse at the annual "Palio, 7"
and great is the rivalry between the con-
trades. Indeed the medieval custom of
street feuds and fights is frequently kept up
by the residents in the various parishes
only some twenty years ago deadly enmity
ragged between the denizens of the Wave"
and the Flower" district. Fire and war
and, deadliest of all, modern improve
ments sweep away streets and their names
in many localities. or sometimes name
survives long after the reason for its selec-
tion has passed away.
Blackfriars remains as a title, though
the convent has vanished; the names of
Newgate, Ludgate and London Wall have
survived the civic portals and boundaries.
Old residents in the suburbs may remem-
ber that some modern avenues" really
commemorate the rows of elms which they
have displaced, and that the seemingly un-
meaning titles of "lane" or gardens" re-
call time before the trim villas so desig-
mated covered veritable rural walk be-
tween hedgAows or a series of market gar
dens. 1t is not often, as in Antwerp and
Sienna, that the ancient divisions Of the
city remain unchanged for centuries

laws Apainst Low Necked Dresses.

A correspondent who has been unfa-
vorably impressed by the recent police
raids suggests new field for official ac-
tivity in the protection of public moral
ity, as follows:
I find in my scrapbook newspaper
clipping where, under the heading of
"Old Pennsylvania Laws" appears the
following:
"If any white female of ten years or
upward shall appear in any public street,
lane, highway, church, court house,
tavern, ballroom, theater or any other
place of public resort, with naked shoul-
ders Ii. O., low necked dresses), being
able to purchase necessary clothing, she
shall forfeit and pay fine Of not less
than $lOo nor more than $500"
If this be really Pennsylvania law
still in force, it seems to me that the po
lice officials at recent ball were derelict
in their duty as conservators Of the pub

FARM AND GARDEN.
The Treatment of Manures for Fert-
ilzing P"~-nses,
saAR~T-

The following experiment is reported
by James Wilson, director ofthe Iowa
exderiment station: 4
We composed the different mauures
from the several stables, mixing the
heavy and wet with the dry straw, so
as to prepare the whole for application.
When spring rains came sediment
flowed from the heaps that we dipped
into barrels and applied to one Of the
corn fields, carefully making the rows
and giving them the same cultivation
the rest of the field had. The rows
that had the liquid manure sprinkled
over them yielded 82.02 bushels an
acre. The same same number of rows
husked for comparison growing beside
them yielded 59.06 bushels an acre.
The manure from which the liquid
seeped was common to most Iowa
farms and was made from feeding corn
with little bran and oil meal. We
applied 10 barrels of the liquid and
got at the rate of % bushels OF corn an
within fraction--for our work.
Our obj ect was to call the attention OF
Iowa farmers to the loss resulting from
the wash of barnyards and the loss OF
urine so universal over the state.
Anothereffect from the liquid manure
was very striking. The corntield had
spots where the crop suffered from
drouth, or bacteria, or soil conditions,
that caused whitening of the lower
leaves and produced yellow coloring
on the higher leaves. One Of these
affected spots lay contiguous to the
rows sprinkled with the liquid man
ure. The disease, whatever it was,
stopped at the first row where the
liquid wss applied. On one side was
an affected foliage, on the other dark
green, ,healthy,vigorous foliage. 1t was
evident that the extra nutrition of the
corn growing on liquid manure
enabled 1t to resist what affected that
growing In the next rows. We hope
toget feeding barn built with cement
floors and cistern, to save this val uable
fertilizer, so as TO enable us to in quire
more thoroughly into its valu Q on

Beranger, the famous French poet,
whose greatest gift lay in writing little
poems which he called songs, was par
ticularly dependent upon the chance
visits of the muse.
He was once visited by the author and
academician, Viennet, who said to him:
"You must have written several songs
since l saw you last"
81 have only begun one," answered
Beranger.
"OnIy one! l am astonishedP ex-
claimed Viennet.
Beranger became indignant.
"Humphy" he shouted. "Do you think
one can turn off a song as one turns off

The Ohio Experiment station has
recently put into ITS main barn q hoor
aud cistern, such as that alluded to
above, and from December 25, 1880, 10
May i, 1891, this cisteTn collected from
80 cows more than 5000 gallons OF
liquid. The cows were well bedded with
straw which OF course absorbed mach OF
the liquid. so that this represents what
would otherwise have been waste.
Chemical analysis showed this liquid
to contain fertllizing materials worth
forty-seven dollars, as fertilizers are
old In Ohio. This would show a saving
ofseventy dollars in six months, the
time cows are usually stalled, and
would be at least twenty per cent. per
annum on the necessary cost OF the
floor and cistern.

Study Your Own Case.

l Ialways insist on my patients study
ing medicine to the extent of their
disease at least. Of course all pa
tients cannot do this. But where it can
be done the disease yields much more
readily to treatment. There is nothing
remarkable about this. 1t is reasonable
that if sick man knows something as to
the nature of that portion of his anatomy
which by reason of its disorder brings
on disease, he can the more intelligently
assist the doctor in bringing about a
cure. This rule, il observed, will ma
terially assist in general improvement
of health.-Dr. Merriman in Chicago
