EVERYDAY LIFE IN CRETE.
Notes of an American Who Has Lived
Among the Creek IsIanders.

Notes OF an American VINO mas A4lNeu
Among the Greek Islanders.
From the Springfield (Mass) Republican.
Crete is a land of the past. 1t is a land
of memories rather than of passing
events. a land whose period of activity
and Importance has passed, whose time of
decay and torpor seems to have come.
To history il is the birthplace and tomb
of Zeus, the home of Minos, the thalasso-
crat the scene of war and carnage, the
Venetian colonial seat. To Greece it is the
land of memories sad and heroic. To
Turkey II is a thorn. In old days 1t got the
name of ill-measupe. To-day 1t might be
said to be scarcely known, except as
country of home life. 1t is properly an
agricultural island. In its entire area
there are not more than six considerable
towns, and these the ruins Of other days,
the houses old and fallen, great hogs,
starving ours, hawks and barriers tenant
ing the streets. All around are the noun
tains, and every considerable town is by
the sea. on the cratcred mountain tops
and in the rugged valleys the peasants
till the land and pasture their sheep and
goats. At night they sleep In the villages,
and day by day they are in their fields OF
but sorry agriculturists. Laziness Is the
root of their vices. and the Cretans are
lazy ne'er-do-wells. More than half Of
their days are holidays, which they cele-
brate by getting drunk. BY actual count,
there are 12S OF these holidays; and whep
men and women set intoxicated 12S times

A Cretan holiday Is day OF the bazars.
The bazaar or public market is a collection
OF covered stalls where most of the buying
and selling are done. Hlther on the holi-
day mornings the women come TO sell
their wares. clad In short petticoats and
wearing huge long boots, wrinkled by wear
and weather. Hther come the men. long

gagged IN a loud-tongucd discussion ANA

IN FEEDING the NERVES.
From, the Nev Era, Greenso,.rg, Ind.

There is probably no man better known
in Dearborn and Ohio counties than Mr.. O..

Chambers, Stevens & Co., the large dry

Mr.. Miller was born and reared in Ohio

sion in public office. Three times he was
the peoples choice for Auditor of the county,
and twice their choice for clerk. According
to the law at that time the clerk or auditor
could not be elected two terms in succession,
four years being term. He was first elected
auditor, then clerk, auditor again, and clerk
again, until he had been elected FIVE times.
This is the only instance of the kind ever
known in the state.
Becoming aged Che is 63) and broken down
in health, Mr.. Miller deemed it advisable to
retire from public service His health be-
came very poor and he went to Aurora to live
with his daughter. About two years ago Mr..
Miller was taken sick with malarial fever,
and - confined to his bed five months it
was more than year before he was able to
get out. The sickness left him with rheu-
matism and catarrh of the stomach, which
brought on palpitati0n of the heart. Time
wore on, aud he did not get better, but grew
worse. He was overcome with general de.
bility, was all run down, his blood being poor
and in a watery condition. Speaking o. his
case Mr.. Miller said: The longer my trou.
bles ran on the worse they grew. Nothing
seemed to benefit me. l kept continually

aud being quite old, probably succumbed
more quickly to the effects. l suffered al

which is always sweetened.
And now Giula's time has come. When
she has put the dinner dishes away she
is done with house, husband and all other
worries for that day. Arrayed in the
latest fashion, she goes forth for her

she Is as thoroughly coQuettish as il is
ever given her sex to be. It is only a
short distance, and she is on the boule-

IS raised terrace on the edge of the sea,
100 feet broad by 1000 or 1900 long. A
few benches, acacias, a lemonade stand
at one end, casino at the other. Here.
from dinner time till midnight, all the
year round, is the theater on which the
love scenes and social comedies of the
town are enacted.
Giula knows every one there. The men
and she women call each other by their
Christian names, and the scene is rather
mat OF a garden party, than of a public
promenade. All smoke both men and wo-
men. The visiting stranger is sure to be
astonlshed to have a lady offer him a
cigarette, or ask that she may light hers
from the hot ashes of his. So they all
smoke, chatter, gossip and firt AS the
evening draws on, the men come, and
merry laugh and saucy jest control the
hour The French capital is not more gay;
the Bowery not more noisy.
At midnight the shtoroj, or night watch
man, comes along, with Gathering cudgel
and raucous voice, proclaiming "homing-
time" Within ten minutes the boulevard
Is deserted, the dancing is over at the
casino, and there is absolute silence. Night
does not commence till then, and it is
with the sun of the morning that the daily
life begins again. So 1t goes on, week after
week; so 1t has gone on since medieval
time and earlier; so tomorrow, with Greek
hre lghting the harbors, and Turkish saw
