THE scoLD's BRIDLE.
Brutal Punishment to Which Women
 Were Once Subjected.

Brutal fQnlSnhn0hC 10 VhtCn women
 Were Once Subjected.
 The prank. or scold's bridle, or gos- sips bridle. was neither more nor less than a muzzle. It was in general use in Great Britain from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century, and in Scot land as well women were muzzled for certain offenses, some at least of them more imaginary than real. The instru- ment of torture, even a dogs leather muzzle, is uncomfortable. How much more the scold's muzzle! It consisted, according to a high authority, MT. w. levitt, of a kind of crown or frame work of iron. which was locked upon the head, and it was armed in front with a gag, plate or sharp cutting knife or point, which was placed in the poor woman's mouth so as to prevent her moving her tongue, or it was so placed that if she did move it or at- tempt to speak it was cut in a most frightful manner. With this cage up- on her head and with the gag firmly pressed and locked against her tongue the miserable creature, whose sole of lending perhaps was that she raised her voice in defense of her social rights against a brutal and besotted husband or had spoken honest truth of some one high in office in her town. was paraded through the streets, led by a chain by the hand of bellman. the beadle or the constable or chained to the pillory, the whipping post or market cross, to be subjected to every conceivable insult and degradation, without even the power left her of asking for mercy or of promising amendment for the future. and when the punishment was over she was turned out from the town hall or the place where the brutal punishment had been inflicted, maimed, distigured. bleeding, faint and degraded. to be the subject of comment and jeering among her neighbors.-London Family Her ald

Heat.

Little things like bacilli will live in temperature of above 211 degrees r. Experimental observations of stokers have shown that man Is cousin to the salamander. Dante made six fiery circles of hell and felt constrained to resort to ice for the seventh and last condemnation of souls. Heat, in other words, is a relative term. Heat is heneficient if you like things hot. It depends on the point of view. Heat is supposed to be eneryating The hook worm is engendered by it. But, then. a race horse will go much faster on a hot day than cool one. The fercest rays of the sun appear to lubricate the joints. There are various kinds of heat. such as just common, everyday heat, prickly heat and the heat of de bate, etc.-Kansas City Times.

CoIors of the Stars.

Although there is no relation ap parent betwen the two phenomena. yet it is interesting to recall the fact that among the stars certain colors ap- pear to characterize different stages of change, or evolution. Red stars. ac- cording to the testimony of the spec troscope, differ widely in their consti- tuition from white or yellow ones, and 1t has been thought that varying col ors may give a clew to progressive changes ir the heavenly bodies. Sirius. for instance, is said to have changed from red to white, and some have sus- pected that Arcturus Is fading from red toward yellow.

A QUEER UNIVERSITY.
Cairo Has the Worlds Oldest Eduea-
 tiona Institution.

tionaI Institution.
 "When We think of Harvard or Yale, the former dating from 163S and the latter from 17o1. we think of them as old universities" says a writer in the American Educational Review; but when we pass to the other side of the world we discover that even the oldest American Universities are in reality very young institutions.
 "The oldest educational institution in the world is the University of Fl Ashar, Cairo. fonu1~d n the year 98S by the graa. Saia'!ln 1t Is the central sea, of learning for the whole Mo- nammedan world. as we'll as foun- tain of spiritual life. It occupies an ancient mosque in the Arab quarter of Cairo, surrounded by confusing maze of narrow streets where the population is made up of representatives of every race that follows the prophet.
 "The old mosque covers several acres and consists of a series of courts sur rounded by long cloisters with low roofs supported by forests of columns. The floors of red tiles are covered daily by multitude of men and boys, squat ting in semicircles around their teach CTS, who sit with their backs to the columns featuring in monotones.
 "The chancellor of the university is always a descendant of the prophet and is usually a man of ability and learning. He occupies apartments in Fl Ashar and is not only the supreme educational but the ecclesiastical head of the church of Egypt.
 There is no organization similar to that in modern universities. Any rep utable man who desires to teach can obtain the privilege by application and Is assigned column where he may sit and impart the truth as he thinks proper. His fame or ability will at- tract more or less students and dis ciples, who pay him fees according to their means"
