India's Real Vegetarians.

The Hndoo's meal is a simple affair
Every high caste Hindoo is "a vegetarian
Your vegetarians here include so many ami
NAL substances that our people stand aghast
when they are mentioned. Your vegeta-
rians eat eggs, oftentimes fish, perhaps
geese and lard, perhaps soups and broths of
doubtful composition. In India the touch
of egg and lard aud fish would be almost as
communicating as beef itself Vegetarian
ism simply means butter, milk, sugar,
-four rice, pulses and herbs. Every one
has not the means to buy all this, so the food
that is generally eaten is some unleavened
white bread and stewed pulses or some rice
with curred vegetables.
In Bengal Il do not known under what
precedentsl the people generally eat fish,
but in the upper provinces, or in Bombay
and Madras, where Hndoosm is more
strict, fish is quite as forbidden as meat.
During the day the Hindoo generally takes
an hours siesta He gets up at O'Clock in
the morning, mind you, and goes to bed
from 8 to 10 o'clock. He works all the time
that he is awake-wOrks on week days and
on Sundays, week in and week out. He
has no Sabbath. And as IA rest from this
incessant labor he enjoys an hours rest
during the hottest part of the day.-Ma-

A olReE FOR THE DRAMA.

Alas, dramatic art is dying,
Its patrons are so sadly fewi
Legitimate Is stunned, and therefore

Terpschore Is courted, wherefore
Behold the dramas sad declined
On stages where of yore Othello
Detained midst thunderous applause,
Some dancer now, all pink and yellow,
Kicks high from out cloud of gauze,
And Shakespeare hides his head divine,
Such lofty plays the public sights,
While skits without a saving line
Have runs of seven hundred nights.
Tragedians one and all are idle,
They've lost the tickle public ear;
Men will not list to Anton Seidl,
They much prefer roof sssrden beer.
On roofs midst pine trees green and bosky
In summer we, alasl incline
To hear the gentle song "McCloskey,"

Where Hamlet spoke his fines dramatic
And charmed that less hereto age,
We now have actions acrobatic,
A steeplechase upon the stagei

Hon.l
HIe recent death of an honored Confed
rate veteran in small southern town has
brought about the revelation of one of the
most remarkable and successful cases of
deception that has ever fallen beneath my
notice. For various reasons, which will
become obvious to the readers of this ac-
count. | shall not give this mans true
name, but will call him Paul Blake.
Blake was n New Englander by birth,
but, being left an orphan when he was IA,
he ran away from his guardians home
and travelled over various portions of this
country and Europe before reaching the
years of manhood, so he really became
somewhat cosmopolitan by nature.
When the civil war came on, he enlisted
in the northern army and was in
French's division of COUGHS corps at the
time the battle of Charlottesville took
place He fought bravely, with, as he
could plainly see, little or no chance of
promotion.
In the course of an engagement ne re-
ceived bullet wound in the hea that
rendered him unconscious for the time,
and when he really came to himself again,
he was wandering about in dense piece

The students come from all parts of the

of the leading colleges for women or have
studied some time in them. The 70 teach
ers included some of the most distinguished
of the Harvard professors and were in all
cases he regular instructors of the college
in the same courses which they taught in

AS originally organized the society could
not confer degrees, and this has always
been a source of some dissatisfaction to its
friends. So Radcliffe college will be incor-

Duplicate of the Harvard Course.

Duplicate of the Harvard Course.
The institution of learning at Cambridge
which has petitioned the Massachusetts
long been known as the Harvard annex
for women" although it is not an annex in
reality and has no official connection with
the university. Radcliffe college had its
genesis in the Society For the Collegiate In
struction of Women, organized in 1879 by
Mr.. Arthur Gilman aud since continued
and developed under his direction. Mr..
Gilman's purpose was to give to women the
advantages of instruction in courses pre-
cisely similar to those pursued at Harvard.
With this object in view he rented a house
in the Appian way, Cambridge, and Sc
cured, with the permission of the faculty,
the services of Harvard professors who
were to instruct students of the society in
the same branches taught at the university.
The new institution was launched with
25 students, who desired to pursue so many
different courses within the range of the
college scheme that they formed 90 classes
and received instruction from % different
teachers, including professors, 4 assistant
professors and IL instructors. These were
paid for their services by the society as if
it were matter of private tuition wholly
unconnected with the college, hut they
gave precisely the same instruction that
they gave to the students in their courses
in the college.
The society prospered and in a few years
outgrew it's quarters in Appian way. 1t

PUBLIC SCHOOL WORK,

Numerous specimens of clay modelling
drawings. map drawing. papers in music
aud penmanship, etc, are spread out on
the tables in the supervisors room at
school headquarters.
Map drawing, as practiced in the schools
this year, is in the form of quick memory
maps These give the general aud I'M
portant features OF the countries and are
comparatively accurate. IL IS claimed
that the benefit derived from this memory
work is greater than that from the ordi-
nary copying Of map.
The question is asked how the special
teachers employ their time aud divide
their labors. They spend all the time Wis
iting the schools, except when planning or
mapping out the work for the different
graeds All the work in their respective
grades is planned and directed By them.
They visit the schools about twice IA
month TO see that the work is carried out
by the teachers. Last month they made
nearly $50 visits each, which, considering
the distance TO the different buildings, 10
in itself quite labofious undertaking.
