Tbey do neither sing nor sigh ' » ». lu that burgh uf by and liy, Where the streets have grasses growing, cool and Ion;; ; But they rest within their bod, Leaving all their tliouKhta unsaid.

MoNTHEu, Star : Importers are beginning to look apon their bosiness very mach as a game of chance. " Heads '." they win. " Tails I" one-third to the Crown, one- third to the seizing officers and one-third to the informer. Telequamk from Bel|>itim say that the condition of Empresu Charlotte, of Mexico, is now (jaite hopeleaa. Her strength is rapidly weakening, and she ia expected to die at any moment. The unfortunate woman has never recovered her mind, which gave way on the execution of her husband. Tins is gettintj to be a cold world for babies. Owners of tenement houses have a prejadioe against them, hotfll keepers frown on them, and now a New York court has granted an injunction against the erec- tion of a baby asylum in that city. And yet the baby is a great institution that can't be wiped uut. J. A. Vanut^ib, of East Liverpool, 0., was recently in St. Clairavitle, and from idle curiosity visited the jail. In Gertie Williams, a woman oonOned there on a charge of murder, he recognized his only sister, who left home mysterionsly several years ago and whose whereabouts were unknown until the chance meeting. Loud Wol.skley says there is a greater danger now menacing England than the possibility of a foreign invasion - the extra- vagance of the English women. He has noticed, he says, ever since be was a boy an increase in the tendency of Englith wo- men to spend a much larger portion of the incomes of their husbands than they wore entitled to on articles ot attire. Amonu the passengers on the White Star steamer Britannic were live young men from Oxford University, England, two from Cambridge ''_! "rsity, throo from the University of Edinburgh, and one from the University ot Utrecht. They are all on their way tn the College Students' Summer School and Encampment for Bible study, to bo conducted at North&eld, Mass., by U. Li. Moody. A Ukuuin doctor has discoveroil that the mascuUne heart weighs more and is larger in proportion than the susoeptible organ possessed by the gentler sex. This atate- mer '^ another blow for woman to parry and ...(ilain away to her own satisfaction. Bhe has been able to endure the physiolo- gical fact that her brain weighs less than tyrant man's, but when it comes to her own pet cardiac region, she hasn't the spirit of a moose if she submits to any scientific shrinkage of its generous propor- tions t The fungus known as vegetable beefsteak, found on old oak trees, is really nutritious and wholesome. When broiled it is difficult to distinguish it from broiled meat. " There is a slight acid tiavor in the fungus when cooked," says the English Mi'clunii\ " which adds considerable piquancy to the dish ; it is extremely tender, succulent and juicy, and resembles tender steak or tongue in a remarkable manner, the juice it distills being in taste and appearance like gravy from an excellent, broiled rump steak." FuoFEs.fOR Cabteii, in his inaugural ad- dress before the British College of State Medicine, gave it as his opinion that every case ot fever costs the community $10, and that the annual coat of scarlet fever in England is 82,000,000. When 03naidering the ()uestion from this economic standpoint it may readily be understood that the cost ot carrying out sanitary improvements and the labor of enforcing right methods ot living would be far outweighed by the mere monetary saving which they would effect, without taking sentiment into considera- tion. A MECQANicAi, soarecrow has been invented. This new invention represents a man ot " sportsmanlike " appearance standing with a gun in hand ready to lire at the first intruder. The arm holding the gun is made to move by clockwork, whioh is enclosed in a strong iron box at its feet, and at the proper elevation it fires a shot louder than an ordinary gun. After the report the arm lowers. The moohaniam can be regulated at the owner's pleasure by a regulator like a clock, and only requires to be wound up twice a day. Mr. Wm. Mauud, of Shobdon, Hereford, Eng- land, is the inventor. A vouNo lady of New York amuaes her- self with humming-birds as pets. They build their nests in the laoe-onrtaing, and have raised little families in the parlor. There are plants for them to lly about in, and every day the tlorist sends a basket of flowers for them to extract the honey from. They are like little rainbows flying about the room, and thoy light on the hoad ot their dainty mistress with perfect freedom. She has an especial alUnity for the feathered race, and pigeons, canaries and ball'finohes are included among her household favorites. In a paper by Dr. Arthur Ranaome (Eng- lish), entitled " Some Evidences Respect- ing Tubercular Infective Areas." attention is called to the fre<iuenoy with whith groups of several oases of deaths from oonaumption in one family occur in small, badly venti- lated cottages situated on damp clay ooils. It is dampness and want of ventilation that make a house or group of houses dangerous, and they probably do this, in large part at least, by causing or promoting slight in- flammations of the air-passages, soro â- â-  throats, bronchitis, etc., whioh lower the vitality of the tissues and so make them fit to support the tubercular bacilli. The most beautiful chamber ever seen was one recently fitted up by an English Duke for his bride. Her favorite flower is the daffodil, and it predominates in the decorations. The ceiling and the walla are of a pale, grayish green and gold. The fringe and dado are of dull gold canvas silk, band embroidered in white daffodils and narcissi. The chandelierc have for globes opaline glass on the Fame flower designs. The velvet carpet is gray-green, sprinkled with golden flowers. The furniture is of heavy English oak, carved with winged loves' heads, and the draperies and window hangings are of Spanish lace, in conven- tional designs of daffodils. Ui' to date the last person who has made public a device for utilizing the current of Niagara is John. E Greene, of Oneonta, N Y., brother of theRev.Dr.Ilnf us S.Greene, of Buffalo. â-  His plan provides for a 3'2o,- 000,000 tunnel from South Buffalo to the whirlpool, giving a fall of -ilO feet here, and 320 at the lower terminus. Cross tunnels are included. It is estimated that 500,850 horse power would be provided, which, at a rental of $15, would yield 37,51l!,750 per annum. The subscriptions for the prize for the best device have reached the sum of 910SO0O. Erastus Wiman was the last signer. An experienced and highly respectable physician gave a valaubla hint the other day which others may find a useful hint as I did, writes a correspondent. " I am con- vinced," said he, " not only from practical personal experience bat on theoretically scientific grounds also, that a safeguard against much prevalent summer illness lies in the tree use of lemon juice. Citric acid helps to supply the place of the fluids which are unduly difsipated through the pores of the skin in hot weather. Eat plenty of lemons, and you can stand the heat infinitely better than those who do not make use of the fruit which nature has supplied tropical countries." QcEKN VicToniA has been unusually sue- ceasf ul this year in the sale of her year â-  lings. They went at an average price of 175 guineiia apiece, and a very smart orowd gathered at Hampton Court to bid for them. The Duke of Portland drove his coach from town to the sale, and made the two biggest bids of the day, paying 'i.tiOO and 1,J00 guineas respectively for two of St. Simon'd yearlings. Lord Kandolph Churchill was on hand to bid, as were a lot ot other distinguished individuals. Prince Henry of Battenberg did not have the luck of his royal mother-in-law. He sold two hunters at the same sale which fetched 'i'> and 30 guineas each. TuK gentleman who has just succeeded to the Earldom of Seafield, Scotland, wont through some curious vicissitudes a few years ago. He was then in New Zealand, hard pushed to earn a livelihood, and he was acting as a bailiff in the New Zealand town of Uamaru, in 18H1, when his father (the uncle of the earl he succeeded) became Earl of Seafield. The news was brought to the bailiff, who was at that moment "in possession" of a house in bis official ctpaoity, that he was now Viscount Keid- haven. A substitute was willing to take his place, but the bailiff viscount stuck to his post for other two days. Subsetjuently he stood for JParliament oat there, but was not elected. In a recent article on Indian railroads and Indian wheat production, Mr. Samuel Smith, M.P., who is a retired Liverpool cotton broker, makes a statement which possesses some interest for Canadian and American wheat-growers. " It isevident,' he says, " that it ia to England's interest to do what she can to develop the vast capabilities of India as a grower of wheat, since India accepts British goods in pay- ment for her wheat without any tariff rob- bery. The cotton famine conseiiuent upon the American civil war led us to enoonrage cotton-planting in India ; and the hostile tariffs of such wheat-growing nations as the United States and Uussia are in like manner hastening the day when India shall be the chief granary of the world." TuK deleterious effect of arsenio upon the skin was recently discussed in the Pathological Society of London, after a oommunioation had been read by Mr. Jonathan Hutchinson. The skin is the tissue on which nrsenio has perhaps its most marked inflaencv. The poison may spoil the complexion instead of improving it by making it muddy and unsightly. A similar action is exhibited in all parts of the skin, and may lead to the development of soft oorns, not warts, on the palms of the hands and soles of the feet, where a roughened condition also grows up under its influence. Mr. Hutcbiuson expressed the belief that arsenio can produce epithe- lial cancer. TuE proclamation of Christianity as the national religion of .lapan will probably soon be made. The question, according to the Japan H'eeklij Mail, is now under dis- cussion, and many of the leailing^ publicists, statesmen and professors are taking an active part in the discussion. It is not claimed that Christian doctrine, in its purely religions side, is generally accept- able, but it is claimed that Christian civil- i/.ation and Christian sentiment are gaining the mastery ; that the old Japanese beliefs are dead or dying fast; that Japanese ethics are gradually giving place to Chris- tian ethics, and that Christianity has, among other tilings, this in its favor â€" that it is the religion of the most highly civilized countries. Kei'obts from Bra/.il indicate that the freedmen have exhibited a steadiness and iuduatry surprising to the most hopeful, and that many of them are in the employ of their former owners. Leading planters are employing greater numbers of laborers than thoy formerly owned slaves, are pay- ing their employees fairly and treating them well, and making better profits under the free than the slave labor system. Mal- contents among the former slave owners are said to be the only disturbing class, and whatever injurious results may follow the emancipation will, it is confidently stated, be duo to these men rather than to tho freedmen. The final aot of emancipation has apparently been aocompanied by much less dirfturbance than was to have been expected. As one result of the invasion scare, ar- rang ments are being made at the British War Office for instructing gentlemen ot in- fluenuo in the counties ot England and Scotland, and who are willing to accept tho duty, to inquire into the extent and ^E Only <t« \ \ atT-omitt.uct ( COl'VUIUIIT, 18S7. ] Tho onl}- medicine for womun's jKJCuliar ailments, sold by drug-fjists. nnder a positiTO (piarantec, from tho manufacturers, that it will give satisfaction in every ease, or money will bn refunJe<l, is Dit.

Au Interesting Foatttre of tho Spring Baces In Toltlo. A Tokio letter says : The spring race have occupied the attention of the capital' upper and lower oiroles for the past thre days, and the sports and fashion model have paraded the lawn before tho grand stand as thoy might at any race course in western countries. A feature of one day's entertainment was tho riding of six Japanese ladies, and natives and foreigners were eijually interested in the spectacle. Tokio is not behind other cities in a rage tor riding schools, and in addition to the number of army otlicers and men who learned the foreign style abroad, every offi- cial or well-to-do citizen now aspires to les- sons in etinestrianiam. There is a nourish- ing riding school near Shiba Park, and a number of Japanese ladies belong to the classes. They wear the foreign riding dress, and look well in the Amazonian habit, although a Kronoh tailor would groan at the outlines of their tigures, that are largest at the waist, have no hips and the most sloping shoulders. The si.\ Amazons who bounced in the saddle around tho Uyeno race course the other afternoon mounted in the paddock, and the mounting was unique ; bettot, or grooms, clasped their hands together like a cradle, the Amazons stepped on with both feet, and the betto slowly raised them straight up in the air until they reached the level of the saddle. The feat was entirely the betto'i, nnd the man who holds the 100- pound dumbbell or plays with cannon balls hardly equals them. " Doubting Tliomases,'" remarked an eminent divine, " must exist in ratio to the too oredulous." The habit ot cautiousness ia not, as a general thing, inborn, but is the result ot a naturally generous and confiding natnre re- peatedly victimized by the cunning and crafty. So the many disappointments, and often injurious effects, arising from the use ot various vaunted remedies havo induced an undue cautiousness, and, in many cases, entiro abandonment of the use of any.
