Turkish Women.

From Chambers Journal.
The lives of Turkish women are dull ana
nonotonous In the extreme, but Friday, be-
ing the day they go to mosque or to visit
their cemeteries, they often take that op-
portunity to look at the soldiers passing
by. On the Bechiktache road you see num-
bers Of them sQuatted on the curbstone,
where they remain for hours. chatting and
looking about them. They make pretty
picture en- masse, with their bright dresses
of every hue-harmony Of color is unknown
In Turkey and they carry parasols, which
are also always Of the gayest colors.
They must be much attached to their
parasols, for you never see them-even as
late as 8 or O'Clock at night but they
have their parasols open. getting shade
from something 1t cannot be the sun. No
flatterer could call Turkish women either
pretty or elegant, for they are simply a
mass Of clothing, without any shape. They
have very large feet, clad in white cotton
stockings. and they walk badly; SO tfat
their charms-no doubt they have many
''yashmak" Is a very becoming addition to
their attire; 1t makes the plainest woman
look nice.
You sometimes get rather a shock when
1t is taken off, SO many women bear the
traces of smallpox. Their bills for COS
metics must often be a little startling;
hands, feet. hair. eyes and complexion are
generally improved" according to their
ideas. To see the soles of their feet, the
nails and palms of their hands, dyed brown
with henna, is the reverse of pretty; and
the beauty" of orange-colored hair fail
to perceive. They always tell Franks that
only in Turkey do you see beautiful women.

A MOVING MOUNTAIN.
1t Is Travelling Slowly but Surely
Down the Columbia River.

From Goldthwaits Geographical Magazine.
A travelling mountain Is found at the cas-
cades of the Columbia. 1t Is a triple-peaked
mass Of dark brown basalt, six or eight
miles in length where 1t fronts the river,
and rises to the height of almost 1000 feet
above the water. That 1t is In motion is
the last thought that would be likely to
suggest Itself to the mind of any one pass
ing it, yet it is well-esta blished fact that
this entire mountain is moving slowly but
steadily down to the river, as IL 1t had
deliberate purpose some time in the future
to dam the Columbia and form a great lake
from the Cascades to the Dalles. In its
forward and downward movement the for
est along the base of the ridge has become
submerged in the river. Large tree stumps
can be seen standing dead in the water on
this shore.
The railway engineers and brakemen find
that the line of railway which skirts the
foot of the mountain Is being continually
forced out OF place. At certain points the
permanent way and rails have been pushed
eight or ten feet out of line in few years
Biologists attribute this strange phenome-
non to the fact that the basalt which con-
sututeS the bulk of the moutain, rests on
a substratum of conglomerate or Of soft
sandstone, which the deep, swift current of
the mighty river is constantly wearing
away. or that this softer subrock is Of itself
yielding at. great depths to the enormous
weight of the harder mineral above.

MUSIC AS A MEDICINE.
Its Influence in Alleviatlng Pain and
Producing Sleep.

From Chambers Journal
Not till the last two or three years. how
ever, has an attempt been made to bring
music within the range of practical thera-
peutics, and to test its effects by systematic
clinical investigation. This fact has been
taken in hand by the Guild of St Cecilia,
under the energetic and discriminating d.
rection of Canon Hartford Of Westminster.
Already the society has made a consider
able number of trials; and Canon Hartford
has recorded their results in the medical
journals. AS type of these results, we
may quote Canon Harford's account or a
visit to the London Temperance Hospital
and the st. Pancras Infirmary: THE choir
of the guild-comprising three vocailsts,
soprano, contralto and BARITONE, and three
instrumentalists, first and second Violins
and harp-viSited the hospital above men
toned. Several of the patients appeared
to be suffering much, notably one whose leg
had been crushed in the railway; another
afflicted by dropsy; and who were shedding
tears from great nervous depression. The
music lasted half an hour. and when II was
over inquiry was made of the patients.
One and all said 1t had soothed them, the
patient who suffered from dropsy remark
ing that the pain had kept off while the
music was being played, and returned when
1t ceased"
At the ST. Pancras Infirnlary there was
patient suffering from melancholia- to
whom they played a lullaby. After the
1t very much. ION this the superintendent
came up to me and said: This Is the first
time she has spoken in a fortnight Short
ly afterwards, a male patient suffering
from delirfum tremens was brought into
the ward. On hearing the first notes of the
music he became quite calm and attentive,
though his attendant had been half afraid
to bring him on account of outbreaks Of
violence"
The following day Canon Hartford returned
to the hospital and found the three worst
cases very much brighter, and they spoke
with gratitude and very warmly Of the
benefit derived from soft music.
Canon Hartford draws a distinction be-
tween the class of music which should be
given to alleviate pain and to produce Sleep
In the latter case the music should be, Of
course, very soft and monotonous. There
phrases. and no striking or unexpected eff
fects should be allowed. To distract the
mind from pain-mental or physical-the
music should be of more attractive order.
but still soft. Whether in all cases soft
music Is better a medicine than lively
and exhilsrating airs has not yet been
clearly determined. Probably 1t varies with
each particular case, but, at any rate, with
soft music one does not run the risk of in
1uriously exciting the patient. which might
possibly be done by music Of a lively char
acter. The softness must be extreme
Canon Hartford remarks the difficulty
OF getting singers who can sing very piano,
and proposes to have them trained with
this particular object IN view.
