McCARTHY'S

There was an article published in the
Herald and Tribune signed Hustler
which seemed to cast some reflections
on the personal character of my daugh.
ter THE Wild Rose. 1t was three
weeks afterward before l saw the arti
Gle, then The Wild Rose wrote an ans
wer to it then the Hustler wrote an
other insulting article about her; then
| attacked the Hustler about writing
such insinuations, and made him ex
plain before witnesses his meaniu
by such language. The following is
his acknowledgement:
There is some few persons in this
vicinity that desire an explanation in
regard to the meaning of my wri ing
heretcfo 9 oncerning The Viii Rose,
| a simply say that whatever my
writin S may have been nothing was
alluded to her personal character, ior
the character of the Wild Rose, so far
as l know, is unblemished. AS to
what l said in regard to The Wild
Rose being frequently seen in the
fields about Mccarthy E, l simply
meant that as there was a ~protracted
meeting going on there, and she with
the others, went through the fields to
shun the mud" THE HUSTLER

THE FENCE LAW.

Since the action of the County Court
in regard to the fence law in January,

tial posts set firmly in the ground not

the first to be eighteen inches above
the ground and the second and third

end respectively, counting from the
center of each, provided said fence

planks, or of Stats, or it may be com
posed of a wire, plank and slat.

Comfort in the Nursery.

A bamboo screen with silk curtains,
or better still, those of some wash
able material, is most useful ad
junct, writes Elisabeth Robinson
Scovil in a useful article on Eur
nishing the Nursery" in the Ladies
Home Journal. 1t can be used to
shield the crib from a draught, to
screen a corner or shut off the wash
stand when it is in use.
If the nursery is far from the
kitchen small refrigerator will be
found a great convenience. Tin ones
can be purchased for about three
dollars that answer the purpose ad-
mirably. There is room for the sup
ply of milk for the day, beside the
ice, and they are easily kept in per.
feet order.
II the baby is fed on artificial food
some means should be provided for
heating it; an alcohol lamp, con-
trivance to fit on the gas burner, OF
a covered saucepan alone, if there is
an open fire.
No nursery should be without a
thermometer, and when it varies
much from 6S degrees the source OF
heat must be attended to.
A clock is always interesting and
amusing to children, and as they
grow older is useful in teaching them
to tell time.
Besides closet for the playthings
that are owned and used in common,
each child should have a receptacle
for its own peculiar treasures, which
it should be required to keep in order.
The top of the chiffonier is good

ments, is the best if it can be had.

ments. In April, 1891, the Govern
ment had to proclaim state of siege
in Rio JaneirO in order to suppress
public manifest ations arranged for
the celebrate ton of Fonseca's restora-
ton to health. Throughout 1892 and
the early part of this year there was
a constant fermentation. The cul-
mination in open civil war seems to
mark another radical crisis.
The finances and business interests
Of the country have been greatly and
constantly embarrassed throughout
this time. FOnseca and his Cabinet,
upon assuming power, found a for
eign debt of 1854, 200, 900 and an in
ternal debt Of still larger proportions.
Besides, the Government stood as
guarantor of $4,000, 900 of railroad
bonds, although only one Brazilian
railway line, capitalized at SO, 600, 600,
was earning the amount of the guar
anty. The Fonseca Government
proceeded to plunge affairs into
greater confusion by launching into
all kinds of ill-advised enterprises to
please the politicians and their local
tiles. Peixoto's administration has
not in any way extricated the coun-
try from it's financial woes.

The Tower of Silence.

The Parsees will not burn or bury
their dead, because they consider a
dead body impure, and they will not
suffer themselves to defile any of the
elements. They therefore expose
their corpses to yultures, a method
revolving, perhaps. to the imagina-
ton, but one which commends itself
to all those who are acquainted there
with. And, after all, one sees moth
ing but the quiet, white-rObed pro-
cession white is mourning among
the Parsees) following the bier to the
Tower of Silence. At the entrance
they look their last on the dead, and
the corpse bearers-a caste of such
carry it within the precincts and lay
it down, to be finally disposed Of by
the vultures which crowd the tower.
And why should the swoop of flock
OF white birds be more revolving than
what happens at the grave?
Meanwhile, and for three days
after, the priests say constant prayers
for the departed, for his soul is sup
posed not to leave the world till the
fourth day after death. On the
fourth day there is the Unthanna
ceremony, when the large sums of
money are given away in memory Of
the departed. The liturgy in use is

had more than they retain. Con-
nected with burial is the popular con-
ception as to the efficacy of dogs

and supposed to guide the souls of
the dead to heaven, and to ward off
evil spirits; hence it is customary to
lead dog into the chamber of death,
that he may look at the corpse before
it is carried away to the Tower. THE
