Nightingale In Turkey.

looked westward toward STEAMBOAT
and Scutafi and Marmora and the sun
set and across to the Asiatic Shore into
the detile of the hills down which Dari-
us led his host 1890 years ago. This
way, too, the Turk came. Behind are
the Anatolian hills, and eastward the
greater sweep of the ocean channel of
the Bosporus, with Therapeia and Buy
ukdere, the seats of foreign embassies,
and, far ON the horizon, the sea rock Of
the Euxine. The enthusiastic president
gays that the view toward the west is
the finest in the world. Perhaps. Go
and see for yourself, and go in June. Go
ut midnight at the full Of the moon and
look and listen on that noble terrace, as
the river sweeps around the base of the
hills, flooded with dreamy light and
singing the low and mighty chant of
the tides, as vessels glide, noiseless, up
and down with ghostly sails; as the
white palaces ON the shores CLEAN like
cubes of solid silver, and the green hills
cut sharp against the eastern sky, and
the nightingales are singing.
/ cannot think of Robert college with
out an association of nightingales.
There first / heard nightingales--not
one, not two, not fifty. How many2 I
might not tell the truth. 1t seemed at
the time as though there were thou
sand and one more in the groves of lick
aud chestnut that cover the wide slope
falling from the terrace far down the
hillside toward the houses ON the shore.

Ths wiekedpes. Of slssplng.

That idea was almost dominant in re-
igious society 60 years ago, and some
times assumed forms which, If not ridic-
ulous, were at least quaint. II was. for
instance, held to be wrong for any but
the aged to sit in easy chairs, not, as 10
now vainly imagined. from any ignorant
idea as to the injury done to the figure,
but because "lolloping" betrayed o
blameworthy tendency to ease and self
indulgence. That was the origin also of
the extraordinary prejudice against tax
ing any extra sleep. The old knew we'll
that sleep, when sleep is not needed, Is
to the young the most wearisome of all
obediences; nevertheless they believed
that to wish to sleep more than strict
ly regulated time, which, according tc
modern hygeists, was too short, was q
mark Of sluggish self indulgence, and
1t was visited, therefore, with moral
reprobation.
Early rising was extravagantly praised,
not because it heightened the day, for
the early risers went to bed early, but
because it was disagreeable, and some
curious rules Of diet--for example, alb
stinence from sugar--were defended in
part upon the same principle We have
known girls cut off their curls avowedly
because they were proud Of them, and
men go about in shabby clothes because,
as they averred and believed, 1t was well
by diminishing comfort to promote Sc
rious reflection. London Spectator.

When the late W. r. Marshall was

was made to move the state capital to

Names wanting.

In names taken from trade, such as
Archer. Fisher, Brewster, Glover. etc,
TO be found in the London Directory,
neither Banker. nor Soldier. nor Sailor
occurs. but it must be remembered that
the first of these names is scarcely as
old as the days Of tho Stuarts. before
which time the Goldsmiths kept run
ming cashes" and acted as "banquiers,
for the word is one Of modern French
importation. Soldier (soldat) also is of
foreign and comparatively recent origin.
The absence Of Sailor is supplied. though
very sparingly it must be owned, by
Boatman and cartwright, Shipman and
Shipwright. But, then, it is only in
comparatively modern times that we
became sea loving people. and that
Britannia began to "rule the waves. I"

The marks that smallpox leaves on
the hands and face may be entirely pre-
vented by the simple expedient of hang
ing red curtains round the patients bed.
This marvellous discovery was made
In the reign Of Edward by DIR. Cad
desden, who from that time has been
persistently ridiouled and laughed at
by men Of science to this day, notwith-
standing the fact that he claimed to
have effected many cures. notably that
Of Edward II himself when Prince OF
Wales.
He ordered that the patient should be
wrapped In scarlet cloth. and that the
bed and furniture of his room should be
painted in the same color. This was the
main cure, but be continued to treat the
patient in the usual manner.
1t is only quite recently that 1t has
been discovered that everything claimed
for this simple remedy is perfectly true.

A good gold dust story is told on
George Wilson. who owned the famous
Paris mine in Park county, Mon. Will
son was visited by some Englishmen
one day, among whom was an expert Of
the English pattern--one who knew all
about mines and great deal about ev-
erything else, in his own opinion. They
wanted to sec some of Wilson's gold,
and he panned out some very fine eolors
for their edification.
"But that isn't gold," pronounced
the youthful expert, after critical ex-
animation. 'Me deah fellah. am a
graduate Of the English School of Mines.
and know gold when / SEQ it, you
know. That is IRON"
Wilson didn't say much. He just
leaned over and took the alleged expert
confidingly by the shoulder: "Mebbe 1t
isn't" he said, "but don't go and give
it away to those fellows down at the
Denver mint, for have been selling
this stuff to them for gold all along. -

Not In those chimes where have late been
straying,
Though beauty there hath long been match
