An Algerian Wedding.

A marriage celebration in Algeria is an interesting relic of ancient customs. The bridegroom goes to bring the bride, and the guests assembled outside the house will wait for his return. Soon the sound of pipes is heard coming from the summit of some neighboring hill, and the marriage procession approaches the bridegroom’s house. The pipers always come first in the procession, then the bride muffled up in a veil, riding a mule led by her lover. Then comes a bevy of gorgeously dressed damsels, sparkling with silver ornaments, after which the friends of the bride follow. The procession stops in front of the bridegroom’s house, and the girl’s friends line both sides of the pathway. The pipers march off on one side, while the bridegroom lifts the girl from the mule and holds her in his arms. The girl’s friends thereupon throw earth at the bridegroom, when he hurries forward and carries her over the threshold of his house. Those about the door beat him with olive branches, amid much laughter. In the evening, on such occasions, the pipers and drummers are called in, and the women dance, two at a time, facing each other; nor does a couple desist until, panting and exhausted, they step aside and make room for another. The dance has great energy of movement, though the steps are small and changes of position slight, the dancers only circling around occasionally. But they swing their bodies about with an astonishing energy and suppleness. As leaves flutter before the gale, so do they vibrate to the music; they shake; they shiver and tremble; they extend quivering arms, wave veils, and their minds seem lost in the abandon and frenzy of the dance, while the other women, looking on, encourage by their high, piercing, trilling cries, which add to the noise of the pipes and drums. —Brooklyn Magazine. A single fact is worth a ship load of argument. This may well be applied to St. Jacobs Oil, which is more efficacious than all other liniments. Mr. John Gregg, a well-known citizen of Watsonville, California, found it to be indispensable as a cure for rheumatism. Price, fifty cents.

Needed for Deep Research.

The literary resources piled in the State Library, which include most of the standard authors, contain also that modern literary evolution of unbridled Philistinism known as “Peck's Bad Boy.” This book is the volume most in request of all in the State Library. It should be borne in mind that the State Library by law is accessible only to the Governor, members of the Council and Legislature, Judges of the courts, State officials, counsel engaged in the argument of causes before the law courts, members of the Board of Agriculture, and the clergymen of Augusta, Hallowell, and Gardiner.— Lewiston {Me.) Journal. An ounce of discretion is better than a pound of knowledge. Why nofspend twen-ty-five cents for a bottle of Red Star Cough Cure, and save a large doctor’s bill? In order to secure more healthy and thorough ventilation, an English architect advises that rooms should be provided with many inlets for warmed fresh air at the floor-line, the effect of which would bo to drive up all the impure air toward the hotter stratum near the ceiling; an outlet at the ceiling line would then carry off the whole of the vitiated air. Again, as the warm air begins to rise as soon as it enters the room, the more it is subdivided into separate inlets the better, because it will ascend by the most direct line to the outlet; and, this being the case, a number of small streams will move the general body of air in the room more effectually than one large current, which woulcTbe likely to pass through the body of air without affecting anything that did not happen to be directly in its path. The temperature of the inflowing air, he says, should be moderate and its velocity low, but it is desirable that there should be only one outlet for foul air from an apartment, because if there were more than one the draught might be unequal, and then one would pull against another, causing a flow of air down one and up the other, instead of from the proper outlets. Of course, in carrying out this arrangement for ventilation, the one outlet need not necessarily appear as such in the apartment, as its mouth may easily be concealed by a perforated cornice or other device.

The Beginning of the End.

The beginning of disease is a Blight debility or disorder of some of the vital organs, the stomach, the liver or the bowels usually. There are dyspeptic symptoms, the liver is troublesome, the skin grows tawny and unhealthy looking, there are pains in the right side or through the ride shoulder blade. The climax is often an utter prostration of the physical energies, perhaps a fatal issue. But if the difficulty is met in time with Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, which is always effective as a remedy, and it Should be resorted to at an early stage, there will be no reason to apprehend those injurious subsequent effects upon the system often entailed by entirely cured diseases. Far better is It, also, to employ this safe remedial agent in fever and ague, and other malarial complaints, than quinine and other potent drugs, which, even when they do prove effectual for a time, ruin the stomach and impair the general health.

Daniel and Noah Mixed.

Hosea B. Perkins always wants to make a “Daniel Webster chowder” from the recipe he obtained from the illustrious statesman whenever he is off on a pleasure party. On board a yacht one day he requested to be allowed to go into the galley and compound the chowder. He was introduced to the chef, and went to work with him. The chef, .however, did not think highly of the recipe, and observed: “Your Monsieur Yebster could write a diezionaire, but he could 'not make ze chowviere.”—New York Times.

Ivory for Knife Handles.

The ivory used for fine table-knives, as well as for other purposes, comes wholly from the great ivory mart of Loudon, and is the tusks of the elephant or of his fossil congener, the mammoth. The ivory fqr knives is sawed by reciprocating saws, fed with water, and is then exposed for several days to the sunlight, under glass, to bleach it. The bandies are weighted by means of a piece of lead wire inside of them, and the hole in which the wire and the tang of the blade are placed is lined with a white cement, to prevent the dark metal from showing through the semi-trausparent ivory. Before the handles receive their final finish they are smoked and a scraper is run over them to detect any slight depressions. They are finished with whiting on soft felt wheels.

An English inventor claims that the grip of a pulley on belting may be increased by covering the pulley with a thin, mettalic cover, fastened by screws, rivets, or solder. Among other advantages, it is said that the strength of the pulley is materially increased, the hold of the belt improved, and it is possible to run with slacker belts.

Scrofula Probably no form of disease is so generally distributed among our whole population as scrofula. Almost every individual has this latent poison coursing Ills veins.
