The Yuruka, indeed, assert that hui

animals. and that the spirits of the
latter take also q human form and APP
pear ut determined epoehs. This is
certainly the reason they are so kind
TO animals. NJ Elisee Reclus says
that a Yuruk loves his horse rs much
us his family. The horses have their
place under the tent and il is not I'M
common to see them warmly wrapped
in a magnificent robe when the furuk
and his children are covered with
rags. Some other customs attest also
n pagan origin; in the Orient every
BODY knows that the Yuruks worship
certain trees and rocks. These facts

theism is by no means the essential
dogma Of their religion.

to the woods, the plains, or the noun
tains; constantly exposed to the in
clemency of the seasons, to dangers
and enemies of all kinds, the Yuruk
has conceived a generous and noble
idea of hospitality, and he practices it
with Observation-Disclosures and pleasure.
His tent, whether in his presence or in
his absence, is always open to the
traveller, and food and drink in abund-
ance are given him. The tents of the
Yuruks are square, and made of sort
of thick black wooden cloth.

A European authority on cholera be-
ieves that cholera can be cxterminated
by going to the root o. th. ,vil. This
disease is endemic at tho delta of the
Gauges River in India, ia n low
area of about 1900 ,quara miles,
caused by the putrefyins romans OF
animal and vegetable life east into the
river by the inhabitants ana constantly
floating about. Formerly the fellaheen
of Egypt Inferred their dead on the
borders OF the river Nile, and the bodies
were then washed ont into the stream
during the annual overflow Of the river,
and were carried down To spread dis
ease throughout the delta Since an
end has been put to this custom, the
plague no longer harnesses the country.
II would doubtless be difficult, if not
impossible, to restrain the natives OF
India, inhabiting the region of the
Ganges, from casting their dead into
the waters of the sacred stream but
the author thinks this difficulty might
be obviated by compelling the people
to cremate their dead and then throw
the ashes on the bosom of the river

WHAT GIRLS TAX ABOUT.

An observer las taken 600 notes
of the conversation of passing young
women. Out of that number $50
began with either "And | said to him"
or ale said to me :" or, "She told INC
that he said;" 100 referred to dresses
or hats that were either "pcrfcclly
lovely" or Just splendid" and the
remainder were pretty evenly divided
between comments on the other girls,
who were "horrid or stuck up and
hateful" new novels, studies, the sum
mer holidays, and the latest scientific
discoveries. -[St Louis S;ar-Sayings.

The Vegetarian Thenrr.

One prominent exponent of the faitl
says it is fact that the strongest ami
mails in the world are vegetarian and
not carnivorous. 1t is the ferocity o.
the lion rather than his strength that
makes him formidable An elephant
is n match for several lions, and is i
vegetarian. The animals with most
speed and endurance the horse, the
reindeer, the antelope and others-ar

the authority, always feed their trick
animals on strict vegetarian diet, and
many hunters do the same thing.

But as yet few ladies have the courage
to be seen about the streets altogether

place, gloves give a finish TO toilet;
in the second, it is hardly possible 10

last fact will surely keep the fashion

Seamless bodices, flaring skirts, and
large sleeves sum up the fashions Of

Women wear as many rings upon

Passementeries arc much worn in

For shopping or travelling hair

shades of medium brown, grey or
navy blue is suitable.
The favorite shoes for travellers to

India silks and French surahs, with

Edison,s practIcal WAYS.

An incident once happened in Edi.
sons laboratory illustrating capitally
the intense practicability of the ''Wiz.
ards nature and also showing the i'm
practical ways of professors. During
the course Of some incandescent lamp
experiments Edison wished to know
the amount of space enclosed in the
glass bulb, and so, turning to two of
his wise and learned assistant electric
ians, requested them to ascertain the
cubical contents of one Of his electric
illuminstors.
To these professional minds there
occurred but one way to solve the
problem-mathematics. Any one who
has ever probed very deeply into this
science of quantities and magnitudes
will know by reason of the irregular
form of an incaudescent lamp that to
ascertain its cubical volume is no easy
task. In fact it called for the greatest
mathematical skill But the profess
ors went to work with true grit, and
after using several sheets of paper and
consuming considerable time, in
formed Edison of the result To their
surprise the inventor said these figures
we're not within gunshot of the true
solution, and to the question as to how
he knew, the Wizard" would only
shrug his shoulders and tell them to
find out for themselves
The electrical experts again went
over their figures, checked them and
tried all the forms of mathematical
calculation, from al arithmetic toapplied

by Edison. After several more useless
attempts, and when good portion Of
the day had been wasted, the profess
sors would work no more upon the
problem until they knew Edison's
method of computation.
The Wizard" then simply took
the cap off an incandeGcent, filled it
with water and then poured the liquid
into an instrument used to determine
the volume of fluids, whence the cubi-
cal contents was known New York

IDENTIFY. One who can command a
column in the morning paper for
his blood-curdling essay with "no
ifs and ands about it" on scalps,
must be considered no slouch by the
scalping organ. 1t would be inter
esting to the numerous readers of
the daily papers to be informed by
Mr.. Hitchfield what his special
qualifications are to entitle him to

honored men of the civil service who
may believe their position to still
demand what has long been held in
this country, strict neutrality in
politics.
A belief in the personal honor of
the members of the Executive to OBJ
serve the conditions of their own
proclamation to the people, already
on the wane, is not likely to be
strengthened by the fulminations
and threats of hungry office seekers
who have been in the country one

for their time than that they may
have exchanged washboard for a

In August, 1887, Mr.. Thurston, on
behalf of the Reform Government,
issued a manifesto prohibiting pub
lie officials from mixing in politics.
That manifesto is republished in
this paper. There does not seem to
be any more reason for the enlist
ment of officials in political contro-
versy to-day than there was then.
A large proportion of the mistakes
of statesmen which do injury not
only to their authors, but, what is
of more Importance, to the country
wherein they are committed, are due
to looking only at the present
without any regard to the future.
The heeting present is really of no
moment compared with the opening
future. Dangerous precedents that
continually plead for wrong courses
in the future should be avoided as
the mariner avoids the sunken reef
All parties here are anxiously wait
ing for the development of the po-
Icy of Cleveland's administration
regarding Hawaii. 1t does not seem
wise from their own standpoint fol
the promoters of annexation to en-.
courage party policy such as tend
ed to confirm suspicious that any.

fits to the country from annexation
