Tho Rebel Yell.

Life In the country, especially In
our Southern country, where people
lived far apart and were employed Oft
entimes Mt considerable distance
from one another, and from the houses
or homes in which they ate and slept,
tended, by exercise in communicating
with one another, to strengthen and
improve their voices for high and pro-
longed notes. A wider range to the
vocal sounds was constantly afforded
and frequently required.
The voices of women as we'll as Of
men were often utilized for "long-dis-
tance calls" 1t may be amusing to
note the difference in intonation which
was usually exhibited by the sexes.
When man had occasion to summon
any one from distance, the prolonged
tone was placed on the first note, the
cmpasis on the second; thus, "Q-h,
John!" If a female called, the pro-
longed tone and the emphasis were
both placed on the last note; thus,
"You, John-n-y!"
following, screaming, yelling for
one person or another, to their dogs,
or at some of the cattle on the planta-
tion, with the accompanying revcrba-
tion from hilltops. over valleys and
plains, were familiar sounds through
out the farming districts of the South
in the days gone by. 1t used to be
said of my fathers old negro foreman
that he could be distinctly understood
mile or moro away.
Hunting, which was enjoyed and in
iulged in more or less by nearly ev-
.ry citizen of the South, was also con-
ducivc to this characteristic develop
ment.-Dr. j. Harpic De,D, in Century.

Unknown Lands.

The failure of the people OF the At
lantic States to understand the area,
conditions, products, and needs of the
West is not infrequently illustrated in
national legislation. The late Editor
Bundy, of Col. Shepard's Mail and E1-
press, said short time before his
death:
"The people of the East know little
about the West, but l have always
found that the people of the West were
well informed about the East"
Col. Grand elmyer, of Nevada, tells q
story bearing strangely on the subject.

Essex Market Court, one day on
Eighth street in New York" said he,
when it occurred to the Judge that
something wanted to know could be

Cooper Institute library. l offered to

WHAT is BEAUTY,
1t seems 10 Depend ON tho Country in
which the Question II Asked.

1t is remarkable to learn the extraor-
binary ideas of female beauty which
characterize different nations. Tho
ladies Of Arabia stain their fingers and
toes red, their eyebrows black, and
their lips blue. In Persia they paint
black streak around their eyes, and
ornament their faces with representa-
tions of various figures.
The Japanese women adopt the sim
gular method of gliding their teeth,
and those of the Indians paint them
red. In some parts of India the pearl
OF the tooth must must be died black
before woman can be beautiful. The
Hottentot women paint the entire body
In compartments of red and black. In
Greenland the women color their
faces with blue and yellow, and fire.
quently tattoo their bodies by satur-
ating threads in SCOT, inserting them
beneath the skin, and then drawing
them through.
Hindoo families, when they wish to
be particularly lovely, smear them
selves with mixture of saffron and
grease, and in nearly all the islands of
the Pacific and Indian oceans the wom-
en-, as well as the men, tattoo great
variety Of figures on the face, the lips,
and the tongue.
In New Holland the women cut
themselves with shells, and, keeping
the wounds open long time, form
deep scars in the flesh, which they
deem highly ornamental. Another
singular mutilation is made among
them, for, when in infancy, they take
off the little finger of the left hand at
the second joint. In ancient Persia an
aqniline nose was often thought
worthy of the crown, but the Sumatran
mother carefully flattens the nose of
her daughter. Among some of the
savage tribes Of Oregon, and also in
Aracan, continual pressure is applied
to the skull, in order to fatten 1t and
thus give it now beauty.
The modern Persians have q strong
aversion to red hair; the Turks, on the
contrary, are warm admirers of it. In
China, small, round eyes are liked, and
the girls are continually plucking their
eyebrows that they may be thin and
long. But the great beauty of Chi
nese lady is in her feet, which, in child
hood. are 80 compressed by bandages
as effectually to prevent any further
increase in size. The four smaller
toes are bent under the foot, to the
sole Of which they firmly adhere, and
the poor girl not only endures much
pain, but becomes cripple for life.
Another mark of beauty consists in
having finger nails 80 long that castings
OF bamboo are necessary to preserve
them from injury. An African beauty
must have small eyes, thick lips, a
large, fiat nose, and skin beautifully
black. In New Guinea the nose is per-
forated and a large piece of wood or
bone inserted. On the northwest coast
of America an incision more than two
inches long is made in the lower lip
and then filed with a wooden plug.
In Guinea the lips are pierced with
thorns, the head Of the thorn being in
side the mouth and the point resting
on the Yankee Blade.
