Turkish Wives.

Finrt among the Turkish social topics b that of the harem. aUoWB a to hsv* four wives; and many partona bavw conaMuantly imA IHvWmB U« CflD BCM9 ID <XNDKO t MHI itisonhrthe vwyTrtvtoaa afford four. The middWasaTwtahwn onlv ooawifo apfoca; the woof tba fowaA eAan to remain ainde not having tba nvrr*M to support a consort tai tbe Mylo which the Mbatem law enjoins. Nothing caa bo more tmTurktah than the Uotawn taleaa of aococi "y®* 11 kH<Sn and parlor, and acting as booeeboid drudges for their husband. Tbe Turkish wife so not a slave; the chief foult to find with her is that she has too lofty a sense of her own dignity. An advocate of female rights would nave some diflculty in persuading her that her lot was pitiable; she has never envied the emandpetion of Christian women, whose free ways shock her; while she has noticed that they get much leas respect from tbe men of their frith than that which is invariably voochaafod to herself She veils her free with no more regret than aWestern lady unveil* her shoulders. Turkish women are not shut up. They go out when they please, attended by their odalika if rich, oar holding their children by the hand; and their magpie voices fill the basaan, for they are noisy talkers. Whenever they pass, men of all creeds stand aside dererentially. If a husband meets his wife in the street, be mak*w no sigh of recognition; if be perceives her haltinc before a draper’s stall and gacing significantly at sila dearer than he can afford, he must possess bis soul in resignation, mattering “Maahallah.” - This respect for women prevails also in the home circle, and it comes naturally to the Mussulman, who has been taught from his boyhood to behave courteously to the sorter sex. The Western conjugal expression about “wearing the breeches” has its Turkish counterpart in the phrase to “live under the slipper f and it is to be feared that not afew Turks know the taste of this implement of uxorial persuasion. A hamal (street porter) once came before a cadi to compuun that his Iwife trounced him too frequently. “See what mine does." answered the magistrate, opening his gown and showing some weals upon his-neck and shoulders. “Go thy way, my son, and thank Allah thou art luckier than L"

Mutton as Food.

' Col. F. D. Curtis thus writes on the desirability of mutton. Thirty yean ago but few fat sheep went into the markets. Now more than a million are required annually to supply tbe demands of New York city alone. The great staple meat food of the cities is beef, while in the country districts it is the flesh of swine. Farmers cannot keep whole carcasses of beef on band, and if preserved in salt, as they do their pork, it Boon gets hard and unpalatable. A carcase of mutton being so much «maller, even in hot weather a considerable portion of it can be used fresh and the balance pickled in salt Mutton will keep longer in a fresh state than any other meat, and when corned is equally nutritious with beef, and far more wholesome than pig meat in any form. For persons of sedentary habits, and at all afflicted with weak digestion, a great deal more healthy than beef or pork. Many people who cannot digest either of tbe Utter without distress, can eat mutton and experience no unpleasantness whatever. It is the cleanest and purest meat food in the whole animal kingdom, as a sheep will starve before it will eat any thing dirty or tainted. Mutton wastes less in the pot than beef. The bones are lighter and finer in proportion to the amount of meat in wellfed sheep,and this alone ia an important item to those who have to buy. The less shrinkage in cooking is a considerable percentage in favor of mutton. The great reason why more mutton so not eaten is liecause of its poor quality, which is the result of no general system practised in the production of this important staple.

“Sponging" on Newspaper

Every man thinks a newspaper a fair game. If a society or any body of men cet up a' concert or bell, or any other form of entertainment, the object of which is to put money in their own pockets, or, if the proceeds are to be devoted to charitable purposes, to add to their -ex? glorification, they become very indignant if the proprietors of newspapers do not assist them with a series of gratuitous advertising for several weeks before the event taxes place. These men, says an exchange, should remember that literary men, in this practical age, work for money as well as for fame —principally tbe former, however—and the business manager of a newspaper, if he wishes to keep on the safe aide of the ledger, conducts his charge on the same principle aa ths bead of any other business establishment. People who are getting ufi a ball would feel chary of asking a present of a pair of gloves from a mdrehant on that account, yet asking and expecting to receive a gratuitous advertisement is a similar demand. The editor of the Marlboro (Maas.) Journal stated the case very plainly when he informed bl i-cadere that, “We long ago adopted the plan of charging our regular reading notice price for all editorial announcements of entertainments to which an admission fee is fixed. We make no exceptions to this rale. In the way of new topics, we frewly and gladly insert sketches of all entertainments after they Irave become matters of history. It is only the preliminaiy work, looking to the drawing out of increased patronage from the public for which we expect compensation.” It costs money to conduct a paper, and printing offices must have support, the same as churches or charitable institutions

—The Marysville *'*t speaking of the college of its loyhood days, says: If you stumbled on an' institution called a college, the first thing thev would put you in would be Latin. From four to six years they would grind you through the l<atin ami Greek languages, with a little bolting through what they called mathematics, geometry ami tngotioinetry. All of which, when well mastered, is about as valuable to the great .iihss of American citizehsin all (he journey of life as Cherokee Indian, st the songs snug while tbe Mexican inouud buildeis were throwing their mounds np. Of ail the grana advances the American mind has made dun ng the last fifty years, none is greater than timt of educating the masses, and directing that education in such a way as to liear favorably on the common practicabilities of life. This is tbe Immediate province of our commen school system. Every branch of literature conducive to this end should lie introduced and taught and none others. If tl>ere is airocote sional youth, meteoric in his thirst for knowledge, let him, comet-like, wander into other and distant systems, and explore to his liking. But our own sun should light u;> his own planets only. —To some pungent remarks of a pro leesional brother, a western lawyer begun his reply as follows: “May It please ilda court; Resting upon the couch oi republican equality as I do, covered with the blanket of constitutional panoply as I am, and protected by the iegis of American liberty as I feel myself to be, 1 <lespise the bussing of the professional insect who has just aat down, and defy his fntile attempts to penetrate, with his pnny sting, the interstices of my impervious covering.” A Cincinnatian who recently visited K*ntaAy to see the Blue Gram region returned diMupointod, and dejected.

Whenever he was teiqpted to squander a quarter, he would any, “There goes a cord of wood.” He learned in very early years a lesson in practical economy. An old woman had been seen for many years hanging about the wharves where vessels were loaded and unloaded In New York harbor, intent on picking up grains of coffee, com, rice, etc, that a chance scattered on the piers. Tbe er day she was badly hurt by some heavy bags of grain foiling on her. Tbe kind merchants took up a purse .for old Rosa, aad sent her to her home in Hoboken, in charge of an officer. What was his surprise to find that the neat and handsome famished cottage was the property of tbe old grain picker. She had literally built and famished it, aa the coral workers do their grain by grain. <-y Do not bo discouraged tbooch your profits are small. If you cannot increase the income, the only way out of the difficulty is to cut down tbe wants. Turn every claim to the best account, and as prices go, you will bo able to get a vast amount or comfort out of even a small income. The habits that you are forming are also of tbe greatest importance, and may be made the foundation stones of high prosperity.

The Clothes-Line Nuisance.

Come, now, what infernal barbarity is this—leaving a clothes-line out after dark! A great deal of fanny comment lias been made upon the custom by thoughtless people, but it is a most serious matter, ana it Is high time the tomfoolery was abolished. We are just as ready as anybody to see the fanny side of a thing, but we luive ceased to observe anything amusing in being unexpectedly sawed across the face by a vlotbes-line. It is time there was a legislative enactment to either hang clotbesdines sixty feet above the earth, or make the leaving them ut over nightfall a state-prison offense. It is a most incomprehensible fact a clothesline is always hung across the garden path. If tbe yard was ten miles square and a path two feet wide crept along close to the fence, and tbe woman baa but eight feet of line, she would manage to cover the path. Whether this is because she is perverse, or cannot help it, we do not know. We only know that it is so, and that it is an appalling evil. No home circle is safe where the custom prevails. It matters not how good natured a man is, it matters not how carefully lie has been educated, it matters not how lofty and noble are his aspirations —the moment a clothes-line catches him under the chin, especially if he has a pan of ashes under his arms, that moment he sinks with awfnl velocity to the level of a brute, and proceeds to act out the conditions thereof at once.. In its proper place a clothes-line is a valuable companion, but across a path after dark it is simplv a brutalising force

Big Words.

Big words are great favorites witn people of small ideas and weak conceptions. They are sometimes employed by men of mind, when they wish to use language that may best conceal their thoughts. With tew exceptions, however, illiterate and half-educated persons use more “big words” than people of thorough education. It is a very common, but egregious, mistake, to suppose the long words are more genteel than the short ones—just as tbe same sort of peoSle imagine high colors and flashy gures improve the style. of dress. These are the kind of folks whe don’t begin, but always “commence.” They don’t live bitt “reside.” They don’t go to bed, but mysteriously “retire." They don’t eat and drink, but “partake of refreshments.” They are never sick, but extremely indisposed /’ and, instead of dying, at last, they “decease." The strength of the English language is in the short words—chiefly monosyllables of Saxon derivation; and people who are in earnest seldom use any other. Love, hate, anger, grief, and Joy express themselves in short words and direct sentences; while cunning, falsehood, and affectation delight in what Horace calls verba seequipedalia—words “a foot and a half" long.

The Cross of the Editor.

The cross of the editor, rays the Troy Timet, constant as cruel, Is the evanescence of bis productions. The most brilliant articles seem like the fire-fly of June. It flashes and then expiree. Collected editorials axe the dullest of reeding. They are salt that has lost its savor. Tne most promising experiments of thia kind have been failure*. Duet Is on the leavee and publisher axe vexed. But to what hard-working editors does there not come the hope that at some time with propitious eireumstances, when the collar shall no longer chafe, and tbe strain shall be relaxed, of doing something that will have permanent utility, upon which he may felicitate himself as Gibbon joyed beneath the acacias of Lausanne, or as Allibone, with holier emotion, returned bis “profound gratitude to that Almighty Being, ‘without whose help all labor is ineffectual, and without whose grace ail wisdom ia folly?” But tbe vision never receives the halo of realisation, hardly the hue of anticipation. The grinding toh endures, and to the last he tugs as at a windlass, letting buckets down Into the well of thought only to draw them np full—of emptiness.

In Heaven.

It has often been noticed, so often that the subject is trite, how often a vein of comedy is found in the deepest tragedies of life. This is exemplified in a remark of Godwin to his dying wife, the char* acteristic of that unsentimental materalist to.be passed over. In one of Mary Woolstonecraft’s last hours, when she was mi fieri ng acute agony, Mr. Basil Montagne ran to Dr. Carlisle, and returned before the physician with an anodyne which he administered himself, raising her in lied to give it. The medicine had an immediate effect, and she turned to her husband, who held her hand, with a sigh of relief, and said, “Oh, Godwin, I uni in heaven I” But even at that moment Godwin declined to be entrapped into the admission that heaven existed, and he calmly replied, “You mean, my dear, that your physical sensations are somewhat easier* " “Shvt Your Moctjb.”—Catlin taught the world the importance of shutting tu© mouth and breathing through the nose. It would seen that his little book entitled ‘Shut your Mouth,’ is bearing fruit in Germany where new thoughts receive more attention from physicians tlum anywhere else in the world. Respiration by the mouth is easier than by the nose, but it is not so safe. The now to a certain extent fits the air for entering the lungs. The aenae of smell warns us against oreatlung an air loaded with poisonous vapors. The moisture of the iiaaal cavities to some extent saturates the air, and makesit leas irritating to the throat and larynx. The mucus of th® hairs catch the dust before it goes for enough to harm. On the other hand. hreathiM through the month dries the throat am in children may cause folae croup catarrh, and it may so effect the Eustachian tube as to cause injury to the ear and deafness.

The Sub’s DiwAXCE.-lt will be remembered that tbe astronomer royal foi England some time ago announced to Pariiament that the sun’s distance, as 'lnduced from the British transit of Venns observations on December?, 1874. miles. This was conriderably greater than had been anlici pate-f. Mr. Stone, of Cape Town, has rediscureed the observation by picking and choosing among them and casting out those which appear least valuable. The result is a distance of 91,940,000 miles. Singularly, though. Capt Tupman. who was in England and ignorant of Mr. Stone’s calculations, bad just obtained the same result by the same method, on the very day that Mr. Stone’s letter of announcement arrived. ’ Catabjh Remedy.-—ahe following remedy for catarrh, is pronounced a certain cure for that disease: “Burdock, yellow-root, dandelion and red-clover roots, each 4 ounces, two gallons of water and a small handfal of hope. Boil slowly one hour, strain and com, and then add a large cupful of yeast. When it has fermented set it to a cool place, and take a small fal three times a day. But ia addition to the above, mnllen-learea, prepared as tobacco, should be smoked three times a day." Love or Counts*.—Teach your daughters and your sons alike, next to honoi; next to the love of home, to love their country.

Who tliat remembers a battle, a husband or son sacrificed, who that ever saw a soldier die, or stood in any silent city of the country’s slain, or in a churchyard where the village heroes rest, can ever make our country seem again a vague or visionary thing? —He who has nothing to do to this world but to amuse himself, has got the hardest job on hand. —At dinner the host introduced to tbe favorable notice of the company a splendid truffled pheasant, amid murmurs of admiration. “Isn’t it a beauty,” he says. ‘Dr. So-and-so gave it to me—killed it himself." “Aw, what was he treating it for?" asked one of the guests. - —Some people believe they can think faster on railroad trit ins than anywhere else, the theory being that tbe rapid motion quickens the action of the mind. Some influence of that kind may have affected a man and woman who met for tbe first time while traveling from Elmira to Philadelphia. They sat in the same seat, fell into conversation, were irresistibly attracted toward each other, and at the end of seven hours, were married. —To clean off the ugly scratches left »n paint by lighting matches upon it, cut a sour orange or lemon in half; apply the cut half to the marks, rubbing for a moment quite hard: then wasn off with a rag, dipped first in water to moisten it, and then in whiting. Rub well with this rag, dry thoroughly, and nine times out of ten the ugly marks will vanish. Of course, sometimes they are burned in so deeply that they cannot be quite eradicated. '-Prof. Ottoni. the Roman artist, haa oil exhibition in London, “Christ Dying on the Cross." which, by means of a false shadow on tne upper eyelid, the face is given the look of life or death, according to the point of view of the spectator. Several years ago a crucifix to a German gothic cnurch, at Remagen, attracted a good deal of attention from this device, and the same trick was repeated by Herr Gabriel Max, in hie ‘‘Head of 0u r Savior." —Dr. Huiliet.late of Pondicherry, undertakes to show, that vaccination was known to a certain Dahu wan tori, who flourished several thousand years before Hippocrates. Dr. Huillet arrived at this conclusion from tbe contents of certain Hindoo manuscripts preserved at Pondicherry, in which are described the effects produced by innoculating the human subject with the matter taken from a man or cow. The secondary disease is described as identical in appearance with its* source, with this difierence-' that it is quite harmlees.

—ln selecting flour first look to the color. If it is white wfth a yellowish straw color tint, buy it. If it is white with a bluish cast, or with black iu it, refuse it. Next examine its n<lheflivenewt its*. and knead a little of it between your fingers; if it works soft and sticky, it is poor. Then throw a little lump of dried flower against a smooth surface; if it foils like powder, it is bad. Lastly, squeese some of the flower tightly m your hand; if it retains the shajie given by the pressure, that, too, is a good sign. It is safe to buy flour that will stand all these tests. < * —A Troy inventor will shortly take out a patent for a cataphene. By means of wires stretched along backyard fences and house-tops he conveys, with the aid of some simple machinery, all concatenate caterwauls into an air-tight barrel. By another simple contrivance the sound in the barrel can be compressed, and can be used in quantities for fire and burglar alarms. The inventor predicts that he will give to the boys something that will make Rome howl in place of dangerous firecrackers for Fourth of July celebrations. For blasting rocks, he says it is just the thing. "“Bev.

Benefits from a College.

On an average there are four hundred and fifty young men in attendance at Cornell university yearly. The Ithaca Journal says the annual necessities cannot be supplied on an average allowance of less Hum 5400 per annum. Thtogives a handsome total of 5180,000. . Add to this the amount voted by the trustees for salaries to the professors and the *xKnses of their families, in round numre 5100,000, and about 550,000 in necessary sunplies, repairs, improvements, etc., etc., and the magnificent sum of 5330,000 is attained as the actual necessary annual cash disbursement of the institution on the bill into the tills of the grocers, merchants, clothiers, butchers, boot, shoe and laundrymen and boarding-house keepers. If the sums expended in luxuries and paid to doctors, Uvery men, cigar,* billiards room and restaurant kee;>ers be included, together with the amounts expended by visitors of the students or guests of the faculty,*or sight-seers who come to view the i town' and »bindings, V and all! the money caused to be spent directly or indirectly by <the I university,* wo < doubt whether the magnificent grand total of 5500,000 annually would be an exaggerated estimate. %We have experienced as a locality less depression and stagnation from the hard times since 1873 than any other section*of.which we can learn.

The Growth of London.

An important return has been issued by the Metropolitan Board of Works, showing the ’ number of inhabited houses, population and ratable annual value of tiie parishes and districts comprised within the metropolitan area in the year 1856 and 1857, or as near those dates as can be accurately stated.” According to this return it appears that the total ratable annual value has more than doubled itself within the twenty years. In 1856 the amount was Al 1,283,663, and in 1876 it was £23,114,313. The total number of inhabited houses has increased from 300,086 in 1851 to 419,642 in 1871, but in this column a decrease to shown in respect of the City of London. The number of inhabited houses In the City of London in 1851 was 14,488, but in 1871 there was only 9,235. In 1861 the population of the metropolis was 2,362, 460. and in 1871 it had increased to 3,2«6£W. —Little Johnny, who is on a visit to his grandmother in the country, writes his first letter to hie mother at home: Potater-bugs is plenty, an I enjoy ’em very much ’cause they makes gran’father swear, an every time he biles over he spilis his false teeth, an he always forgets ware he spills’em, an he hires is to roust ’em out.
