He Stands by the Pig.

The.oditor of the Germantown Telegraph has these words to say for the porkers: *■. The question is again raised as to whether pork is wholesome or otherwise, some people declaiming against it warmly as an article of food, etc., though they offer no solid reasons for their opinion or belief. Now, so far as our information and experience go, we can regard such views as without the shadow of a foundation. Porkeaters, Who comprise nine-tenths of the population of the civilized world, will scout at such nonsense. For all persons of active habits pork is just as wholesome as anything else, and far more sustaining. It is true that if too much of it is eaten at a time —in other words, if people will make “hogs” of themselves—they will have to suffer for it, as for an over-mess of almost any other food. To discard pork would be to discard one of the main items going into our s “vital statistics.” What would become of the army and navy, of our merchant marine, of, in a word, the great mass of our population, if pork were to be thrown overboard? The idea is supremely absured—the abolition of this flesh as a prime article of food would be just cause for a sumptuary revolution. No, go. on, ye pork eaters, among whom we number ourselves, with a craving stomach; boil or broil your hams, pickle your sides, cabbage and kraut your chines, souse your pigs’ feet, and enjoy yourselves upon swine’s meat to your hearts’ and pockets’ content. Fling not dirt at the grave, patient, thankful grunter, who anticipates his fate with a pleasure which he cannot express in words, but which he squeals to meet with the best possible grace. He may not laugh, it is true, but he grows fat without laughing, so much more to his own credit and to the profit of his friends, who liberally bestow upon him the wherewith to fare sumptuously every day. We shall stand by the pig. He is the patron of nran. If he is generously treated it is because he is expected to return four-fold. If he is lazy it is because we give him nothing to do but to eat, grunt, and sleep, having in view not the good of the animal a tithe as much as the hope of an affluent reciprocation for all our kindness. Pork unwholesome! Nobody except a lean, cadaverous,, sedentary biped, who is obliged to live, probably on account of early dissipation, on Graham bread and weak tea, would be guilty of such a slander.

Bermuda’s Coral Reefs.

“There’s hills and mountains down there, sir, ” said an old sailor to me one day as we were scudding in toward the Sound; “and fields and forests, all made of coral. Of a clear day eight or ten miles outside, sir, with my water-glass, I’ve seen things as you could hardly believe if I told you. Mighty big trees, and places like grass plats and onion fields, bigger’n any in Bermuda; groves, like palmettos, and buildin’s and churches —cathedrals, I believe you call ’em—like they have in London, with heaps of steeples, and big fish going to meetin’ 1” ANo fairy tale, now, Captain.” "Nd, sir; all fact, except ’bout the meetin’. Fish hain’t got much feelin’, specially sherks, and marays, and graysnappers, you know.” The coral reefs on which the Bermuda Islands are built extend a distancesof from ten to twenty miles beyond the land west, north, and east, much of the intermediate space being dotted with islands and darkened by innumerable shoals that are of endless torment to sailors. The shores ate with little exception rugged, broken, made up of over-hanging cliffs and peculiar terrace like layers of rock. In places the ceaseless action of the waves have made deep caverns, bored holes, carved fantastic shapes and made decorations that resemble stucco work. Sea moss carpets, many of them weird-looking structures, hang in long wreaths from escarpment and cornice, where mermaids and mermen can go to work housekeeping and find all sorts of beautiful and mstbetic articles to embellish their interiors. Hermit crabs scramble awkwardly along the sharp ledges near the water, looking like criminals trying to hide, scudding for an untenanted periwinkle or vacant conch shell when pressed for time, while here and there, in natural aquaria, little tanks and bowls of water in the rocks, you can see pretty small fry that seem to have concluded to drop in there and rest till the tide comes up again and enables them to rejoin their congeners in the deep green sea.

Bound to Suit Her.

“In one of our suburban cities—it doesn’t matter which,” said a salesman in a neighboring retail house, “the proprietor got up the idiotic notion that it would eliminate the workmen from the pay-roll if he made a rule that no man who failed to sell to one out of three customers who came in in succession should be detained in the establishment. This rule was in force for some time. One fellow, who didn’t intend that anybody should get ahead of him when he found himself on the eve of losing a third customer, was obliged to do a rascally thing to secure her. She came in with ten yards of calico, a remnant which she had just bought, and she wanted a yard and a half more. She said she had been all over town in a vain search to get it matched. The salesman looked over all his goods, and couldn’t find anything to suit her. He began to be alarmed, when a bright thought occurred to him. He put his hand to his head all of a sudden, as though he remembered something, and said, ‘Well, there, I believe Fve got a remnant of the very identical piece of goods all the time up stairs. I’ll run up and see.’ He took her piece of cloth under his arm, went up stairs, deliberately cut off a yard and a half from it, and brought back the two pieces to her. She was very much pleased at such an excellent match, and paid for the yard and a half of her own calico with a great deal of satisfaction. She came into the store next day and said somebody had cheated her; but the fellow explained so plausibly to her that she must have got short measure at the place where she first got her cloth that she started for that place in high dudgeon. As he hasn’t seen her

since, he concludes that she must have met with some satisfaction there. But it was a risky piece of business for him, just the same.— Boston Globe.

The Shrine of Sidi ab Dullah.

Here, nearly 1,200 years, has slumbered a personal friend of the founder of the faith of Islam, who lived, died, and was buried, wearing always, as a symbol of devotion, a portion of the Prophet’s beard on his breast The chamber is about twenty-one feet square, and lofty. Its walls are covered with a geometrical pattern, worked out in black and white marble. Fbur lengthy inscriptions are imbedded in them, and the room is dimly lighted by four small windows of rose-colored and blue glass. From the cupola of fretwork hangs a grand old chandelier of twisted Venetian glass. Below this is the tomb itself, surrounded by a high grating of bronze, shut in by four marble columns about seven feet high. From a rod, on a line with the grating, hang festoons of ostrich eggs and golden balls. The catafalque above the grave is covered by two elaborately embroidered balls; the first of black and white velvet, adorned with Arabic inscriptions of silk, was the gift of the late Ahmed Bey; the second, of pink and blue brocade, was a votive offering from Mohamed of Sadek. Over these hung thirteen banners, rich in gold, silver, and needlework—the tribute of the successors of Hussein ben Ali to the sanctuary of the Sidi bou Awib. Our visit was certainly unexpected, for at least a dozen fine Arabic manuscripts rested on as many lecterns of mother-of-pearl and tortoise-shell in front of the screen. The guardian of the zaouia could hardly realize the fact of Christians desecrating by their presence such holy ground. Bunning his amber chaplet through his hands with feverish haste, he suddenly threw himself upon his face, and probably prayed to be forgiven. Some Algerian soldiers who had followed us prostrated themselves before the tomb, and eagerly kissed the edge of the palls through the metal lattice-work. Looking at the bright white marble pillars of the cloister, my eye fell on one remarkable capital; at either corner a bird supported a Greek cross in the center. The spoils of some fair Byzantine church had evidently been brought to honor the resting-place of the “Friend of the Prophet.”— Tunis, Past and Present.

Solomon’s Judgment.

Now you remember in the Book of Kings the judgment of Solomon, which has always been admired as a proof of great legal wisdom among the Jews. I must confess that, not having a legal mind, I never could suppress a certain shudder when reading the decision of Solomon: “Divide the child in two, and give half to the one and half to the other.” Let me now tell you the same story as told by the Buddhist, whose sacred Canon is full of such legends and parables. In the Kanjur, which is the Tibethan translation of Buddhist Tripitaka, we likewise read of two women who claimed each to be the mother of the same child. The King, after listening to their quarrels for a long time, gave it up as hopeless to settle who was the real mother. Upon this Visakha stepped forward and said: “What is the use of examining and cross-examining these women ? Let them take the boy and settle it among themselves. ” Thereupon both women fell on the child, and when the fight became violent the child was hurt and began to cry. Then one of them let him go, because she could not bear to hear the child cry. That settled the question. The King gave the child to the true mother, and had the other beaten with a red. This seems to me, if not the most primitive, yet the more natural form of the story, showing a deeper knowledge of human nature and more wisdom than even the wisdom of Solomon.— Max Muller, in Contemporary Review.

Where Unemployed Literary Talent Abounds.

Speaking of the death of prominent literary men, the “Hermit” of the Troy Times says: The question is sometimes asked, how are such important vacancies filled on so short a notice? To this it may be replied that there is such an excess in the supply of literary talent that no difficulty occurs. There are so many able writers hanging round journals and periodicals that selections can be made on a day’s notice. Literary people generally prefer the metropolis, even if they starve. This is nothing new. More than a century and a half ago Johnson went to London to try the chances of a literary life, and he suffered twenty years of painful struggle before he reached a sufficient degree of success to give him a decent living. Thomson, the author of “The Seasons,” went to London about the same time, and published “Winter,” for which he received only three guineas. It was only his good fortune which gave him a tutorship that saved him from the same fate which Johnson endured. New York never contained so much unemployed talent as at the present time, and this tendency must continue to increase.— New York Commercial Advertiser.

The Original of J. Horner.

Tattle Jack Horner is so indelibly associated in the Anglo-Saxon mind with the popular pie of this period of the year that it is interesting to hear that he is believed to have been a member of the family of his name last seated at Mells, near Frome, in Somersetshire. A will dated 1540, contains bequests to “John Horner the younger,” and in the previous year, at the destruction of the great abbey of Glastonbury, so eloquently alluded to by Froude, the Horners clawed up a considerable share of the good things going, so much so that an old distich runs: “Horner. Popham, Wyndham, and Thynne. When the Abbot came out they went in.” The plum which little Jack pulled out is surmised to have been a handsome share of the monastic estate, satirically alluded to by a wag, who certainly never dreamed that nearly 400 years later every child on this continent would be familiar with his rhyme. The Horners are still livings* Mells.

Consumption in Its Early Stages. To a very large extent consumption is a hereditary disease, either as directly propagated in its germ or taint, or as engrafted on a constitution too feeble to resist attacks from without. It is not a local disease, like yeHow fever, nor an occasional one, like cholera; nor is it confined to a certain period of life. Its deadly work is going on always and everywhere, from infancy to old age. Few others compare with it in fatality. It may mock its victims with hope to the last, ’but its grasp, once fully fixed, is, in the majority of cases, relaxed only in death. Shall we then give up to it in despair ? By no means. It is an established fact that it can be cured in its earlier stage. Post-mortems reveal multitudes of healed and scarred lungs—probably self-cured—in persons who have died of other diseases; and medical history records many similar cures, the result of well-directed treatment. The condition out of which consumption is developed is always one of feebleness. Our only hope is in physical invigoration. Says a distinguished British authority, “If we ask what treatment is attended by the best results, the experience both of the past and present will, I think, unhesitatingly reply that which has for its object the improvement by every means possible of the general health. The most important indication in the treatment of this disease has been in the past, and probably will be in the future, to endeavor, by means of good hygiene, good food and suitable remedies, to promote and maintain, as far as possible, the normal performance of the digestive and assimilative processes which is essential to healthy nutrition.” The requisites to this end are rest from one’s usual occupation; change of surroundings; out-door exercise and a nutritious diet of easy digestion. Fat, which is so desirable, should be taken in the form of butter, cream, eggs, bacon, etc. To relieve the fatigue of the early morning cough, and to promote expectoration, warm tea or chocolate, with plenty of milk is good, before dressing. At night, to prevent night sweats, give egg and milk, or strong beef-tea, the last thing. The special aim of the drugs administered should be to invigorate the digestive- organs. “I would also say,” adds the above author, “take care of the stomach, and the lungs will take care of themselves.” Of course, a skilled physician must direct the details. — Youth’s Companion.

Saving a Bank.

“I saved a bank from bursting once, myself,” remarked a seedy-looking old chap, as he laid down a morning paper, which he had perused second-handed. “I admit I ain’t very wealthy now, but years ago, before my troubles come on me, I had large interests in manufacturing and banking. I was President of the bank in our town when there was a little panic and people made a run. I went in to see how they were getting along, just as the excitement began, when I found they couldn’t stand it until the close of banking hours. The Directors wanted to suspend, but I objected. I told ’em to leave it to me. Happened it was payday at my shop. Hustled up there, put a flea in the engineer’s ear, and in five minutes the engine broke down. The men were glad to get a holiday, but wanted their money. I told ’em we didn’t have the currency ready, but would give ’em checks on the bank. My clerks made out the checks in a hurry, and weren’t over-particular about losing any time figuring out odd cents. Well, my two hundred and more men rushed for the bank, and by the time the big depositors had heard of the run and got around there was a big line in front of ’em. It took three hours to pay off my men with currency from my safe at the shop, which I carried in the back door of the bank. In that three hours we raised enough money to pay every dollar due our depositors, and the bank was saved.”— Chicago Herald.

Waste of Food.

The flesh of domestic animals fit for food is almost a waste substance in many countries, since it cannot be locally consumed nor profitably preserved. In the River Plate republics alone there are 80,000,000 sheep and 25,000,000 cattle to a population of 2,500,000. For years sheep were only valued there for their wool, and when flayed, carcasses were left to rot, or, when dried in the sun, piled up in stacks for fuel, while later on they were boiled down for their tallow. Sheep got very fat in the province of Buenos Ayers, and those of three or four years will give frequently from eighteen to twenty-five pounds of tallow. Countless numbers of sheep are„ boiled down every year in the so-called greaseries only for the tallow, which forms one of the staple articles of export. The mutton is thrown away, or used in a dry state as fuel; In five years, more than 1,500,000 sheep and 200,000 horned cattle were boiled down simply for their tallow in the colonies of New South Wales and Victoria.— Popular Science.

Religion.

Once in a while we still hear the old croak that religion has lost its hold on the general public; that the church and its pulpit are no longer a power in the world, and that religious reading has given place to the daily newspaper. To this venerable fiction there is no better answer than that given by the annual statistics of the number of books, in the several classes of literature, published in America and England. From the figures of the English book trade of last year, it appears that “as usual, theology heads the list with 945 works; educational and classical publications are second, with 682,” etc. Publishers issue books to sell, and they are not accustomed to put forth, year by year, that which nobody buys; so that the regular publication and sale of religious books is a perfectly fair test of the general demand. That little coterie of readers which no longer cares for religions books makes the ostrich’s mistake of measuring the capacities of other heads by the situation of its own. School Times.

Faces Not Indicative of Occupation.

Experience and observation convince me that judgments based on physiognomy, especially, are quite as apt to be wrong as right. I shall never forget an illustration that is in my own eixperience. I used to meet on the Fulton ferry-boat two or three times a week a tall, handsome man in a glazed cap, pea-jacket, and generally rough attire. His face was weather-beaten; he never entered the cabin, and almost invariably took his post in the forward end of the boat, whence, with an apparently critical eye, he regarded the clouds, the tides, and the harbor aspect in general. In spite of the rough lines and a bronzed skin, he had one of the most intelligent faces, I think, I ever saw, and his profile was purely Greek. How many stories I imagined about him! In mymind’s eye I saw him as a cabinboy, a seaman, a second mate, a captain. I saw him battle with winds and defeat storms. I thought of him in shipwreck, and pictured him among the isles of the ocean. I saw him return to his home laden with the results of his manly endeavor, and congratulated him, mentally, that the sunset of his life was to be spent in a calmer atmosphere and in a true sailor’s snug harbor, I really attached myself to the old fellow, and would have resented an insult to him quickly. Imagine my intense disgust, surprise, and mortification when I learned one day that he was a steward in a second-class hotel in Brooklyn, in the interest of which he made a daily trip to Fulton and Washington Markets in New York City.—Philadelphia Times.

Spool-Making.

Spools are made in immense numbers. One factory turns out 100,000 gross a day, and consumes 2,500 cords of birch wood annually. The wood is first sawed into sticks four or five feet long, ami from seven-eighths of an inch to three inches square, according to the size of the spool to be produced. These sticks, after being thoroughly seasoned, are sawed into short blocks, and the blocks are dried in 'a hot-air kiln. At the time they are sawed a hole is bored through them. The spool machine is managed by a boy, who throws out the knotty or defective pieces. The spools polish themselves by their motion and contact in revolving drums. Some of the spools are dyed yellow, red, or black; others are ready for use when they leave the drums. The number of yards of cotton on a spool is determined by the size of the spool. The cotton is never measured, But the spool is gauged to contain 100, 200, or 500 yards, as the case may be. Silk and linen firms always send to their spool-makers patterns giving the size and shape of the barrel and of the head and bevel, which determine the amount of silk or thread that the spool will hold.— Pittsburgh Dispatch.

Where to Have Bills Sent.

In a Dakota town, one Sunday afternoon, the Postmaster called on his neighbor, and as he took his departure he informed his neighbor that there was a letter in the postoffice for him. A few days afterward the Postmaster met his neighbor in a saloon and told him again about the letter that bore his address. John discharged a stream of tobacco juice, straightened up, and said: “William, from what State did the letter come ?” ' “Ohio,” replied the P. M. “Send it to the dead-letter office.

DR. JOHN BULL’S SmittfsTonicSmu FOR THE CURE OF FEVERandACUE Or CHILLS and FEVER, AND ALL MALARIAL DISEASES The proprietor of this celebrated medicine justly claims for it a superiority over all remedies ever offered to the public for the SAFE, CEBTAIN, SPEEDY and PEEM AMENT cure of Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever, whether of short or long standing. He refers to the entire Western and Southern country to bear him testimony to the truth of the assertion that in no case whatever will it fail to cure if the directions are strictly followed and carried out. In a great many cases a single dose has been sufficient for a cure, and whole families have been cured by a single bottle, with a perfect restoration of the general health. It is, however, prudent, and in every case more certain to cure, if its use is continued in smaller doses for a week or two after the disease has been checked, more especially in difficult and long-standing cases. Usually this medicine will not require any aid to keep the bowels in good order. Should the patient, however, require a cathartic medicine, after having taken three or four doses of the Tonic, a single dose of BULL’S VEGETABLE FAMILY FILLS will be sufficient.
