"Women in Turkey" says recent
traveller, "are not SO sadly lacking in
domestic virtues as the American house
wife thinks and it must be confessed
that in some things they can even give
points to their sisters Of the complex
civilization. If it is washing day, the
hanum, however high her rank, attends
personally to all the rinsing of her hus-
bands garments, though it must be con-
fessed that this is not so much from
fear that his fannels may shrink as
from belief that'a spell could be cast
upon them by any designing slave who
wishes to supplant her in his affections.
Although every Turkish family, how
ever humble, has at least one black
slave to do the ordinary washing, cook

her individual attention to all delicate

PHI After Pie.

A curious comment upon our sanitary
condition as nation is furnished by a
legend prominently displayed on one OF
the tall house walls in the aesthetic city
of Boston. It is this-Pill After Pie. 1t
is a general statement, as II 1t were an
accepted and undisputed rule Of life In
Boston. No mention is made in sight
of any particular brand of pill or pie.
1t may not be city ordinance. 1t may
be only an advertisement, but If it is
it is very shrewd one and shrewd in
two particulars It seizes upon an es-
tablished habit. upon which it can
reckon as basis of pecuniary profit.
There is and must be pie in the daily
life of the city. Taking this for granted,
it then suggests pills as the necessary
sequence. 1t does not make the blunder
of Offering pie as an inducement to take
the pill advertised. 1t understands hu-
man nature too we'll for that. Compare
lively few people could be induced to
eat pie for the sake of getting pill. Still
fewer could be tempted to swallow pill
OH the bride of pie afterward. No. But
lots of people will do wrong with the
expectation of repenting after they have
enjoyed themselves and lots of people
will eat pie knowing that pill must
follow it who would on no account take
their punishment before their pleasure.

The Leaky Missouri River.

f. r. Spearman writes of "Queer
American Rivers" in ST. Nicholas. Mr..
Spearman says:
With all it's other eccentricities, the
Missouri river leaks badly, for you
know there are leaky rivers as well as
leaky boats. The government engineers
once measured the flow of the Missouri
away up in Montana and again some
hundred miles farther down stream. To
their surprise they found that the Mis-

was actually 100000 second feet smaller
at the lower point.
Now while 30, 600 second feet could
be spared from such tremendous river
that amount Of water makes a consider
able stream of itself. Many very cele-
brated rivers never had so much water
In their lives; hence there was great
amazement when the discrepancy was
discovered. But Of late years Dakota
farmers away to the south and east OF
those points on the Missouri, sinking
artesian wells, found immense volumes
of water where the biologists said there
vouldn t be any. So it is believed that
the farmers have tapped the water leak.

river away up in Montana, and from
these wells they irrigate large tracts OF

italian, French. Spanish confeotions.

1t was not from either Italy or France
that we got the best confectioners In the
earlier days of English cookery. Spain,
notably Toledo, furnished England with
the most celebrated pastry cooks, or paste
leros as they are called, though we have
since looked most to France for these art
lists. Under the patronage of "Bloody
Mary and of Queen Henrietta Maria
Spanish methods fourished apace In the
court cuisine. We read that when Mary
entertained the Princess Elizabeth at Rich
mond in the summer of 1867 a sumptuous
banquet was served, in which there was
introduced us an ornament pomegranate
tree in confectionery work bearing the
arms of Spain, showing Mary's Spanish
leanings In rather ostentatious fashion.
These Spanish and Portuguese confection'
ers were very skillful.

rbe Bishop and the C.bby.

The Irish Ecclesiastical Journal tells
this story: Last week an Irish bishop
was driving home to his hotel in the
city from q suburb of Dublin, with
lady and one of the Junior clergy as his
escort. 1t was late at night, dark, windy
and rainy, and the cabman drove away
merrily, but after some peculiar turn
ings and ten minutes driving the cab
was returning whence 1t had started.
The wherefore was evident. as the cabby
was drunk. However, home had to be
reached, and his lordship, man OF ac-
ton, jumped out of the cab, mounted
the box and drove at good round pace
into town. On reaching his destination
the right reverend prelate said he
thought he ought to be paid, senti-
ment in which the oabby acquiesced
with the utmost good humor, but pock-
eted his fare notwithstanding. TO be
driven home by q bishop on cab, adds
our contemporary, falls not to the lot
of many curates, and is surely worth re-
cording."

, Jan. ~ was fairy sodfsther's day q
the Baker Chocolate works In Milton,
Mass. On that evening was distributed
the s4s. 600 left by the will Of the late
Henry L. Pierce to the employeeso OF the
business Of which he was manager.
Two hundred and forty-fve men and
1876 women met the officers Of the COR
poration in large room in one of the
mills, and after a supper and some dis
course from Mr., Pierce's executor each
received check for 500. The oldest
employee received special legacy of
$4,000 1t is not recalled that there was
ever testator whose testamentary pro-
visions gave more acute satisfaction to
more of his personal acquaintances than
those OF MIR. Pierce. There has been no
audible grumbling about his will. He
did everything that was expected Of
him and great deal that was not ex-
pected, surprising very many people and
disappointing none = unless possibly
some members of one of the learned
professions, for as yet there has been no
hint of a lawsuit over his will. The
will ran over with miscellaneous kind
ness and benevolence.
Mr.. Pierce ought to have kept a school
for testators whose purposes were phil
anthropic. If Stephen Girard, A. L.
Stewart, Samuel Tilden and Daniel b.
Fayerweather could have sat under his
instructions awhile, the memory Of all
of them would be sweeter, and the gen.
eral public would be gamer by good
many millions of useful money. Is there
not some one living who has had expert
ence of wills and is competent, by dis
position and knowledge, to open such a
class for the instruction of testators!

Unfortunate Lady Lamb.

Many of Byron most charming and
tender verses are written to Lady Caro-
line Lamb, the novelist, whose life was
sadly interesting. She was married be-
fore the age of 20 to the Hon. William
Lamb and was long the favorite of
fashionable circles for her literary ac-
complishments, her personal attractive
ness and her grace. Upon meeting Lord
Byron she became the victim Of an un-
fortunate infatuation for the poet which
continued three years and was the cause
of much comment. The poet is said to
have trified with her feelings, and a
quarrel took place. For many years
Lady Caroline led life of comparative
seclusion at Brocket Hall While rid
ing one day with Mr.. Lamb she met al
the park gates the hearse which was
conveying the remains Of Lord Byron tc
Newstead abbey. She was taken home
insensible and long and severe illness
followed, during which she had spells
Of insanity. From this time her man
ner and habits changed, and three years
before her death separation took place
between her and her husband, who
however, visited her frequently and cor
responded with her. A romantic suscep
tibility of temperament seems to hav'
been the misfortune of this lady. Thi
fact illustrates the wisdom Of Thomp
sons advice:
Then keep each passion, however dear.
Trust me, the tender are the most severe.
