HEALTH AND BEAUTY.
December should mark radical
changes In our diet , It now being the
mission of our food to "keep out the
cold" as well as to nourish the body.
Good soups and good meats are now
of flrst Importance Indeed , are synon
ymous with good sense , begging the
pardon of our vegetarian friends.
Purees ( of meat foundation ) and all
the strong , rich soups to be avoided
at other seasons are strictly la mid
winter order. In winter meat becomes
the pivotal point of our diet. The ftar
of yellow fever among the people has
almost entirely obscured the danger
from diphtheria , tuberculosis and ty
phoid fever and other infectious dis
eases which confront us at all tlm \
and during oil seasons. The danger
from a case of diphtheria In Now York
at any season of the year Is far grnater
than the danger from a case of yellow-
fever In the same place ; still , persons
who would shun a street whore a cnso
of yellow fever existed would delib
erately enter the apartment of u per
son suffering from diphtheria. A se
rious outbreak of typhoid fever cre
ates but little consternation , and the
presence In our midst of innumerable
coses of tuberculosis , a disease which
is responsible for an Incredible num
ber of deaths , is looked upon with in
difference by the public , says the
North American Review. The mis
conception in regard to the danger
from this class of diseases often ren
ders the efforts of health ofllouls In
effectual. The Italians consider a large >
nose desirable and beautiful. Recently
there have been two competitions la
which noses have played the leading
part. One at Padua was held by th&
students , and prized of pocket handker
chiefs and snuff-boxes were awarded
for "noses the most pronounced and
respectable. " At Milan a more Im
portant competition was held , the
competitors numbering thirty-six. The
flrst prize , a gold medal , was won by
a Venetian , whoso nose was found to
bo "of formidable proportions , long ,
well pronounced , aggressive , trench
ant like ft knife blade. " The second
prize , an enameled medal , went to the
man who owned a nose "domineering ,
assuming , with nostrils wide and cav
ernous. " The third medal went to a
man whoso nose was "refined and sym
metrical , " while the last two medals
to were awarded for n nose "without
pretension , ingenuous , but solid and
well-planted , " and another "consider
able , regular and worthy of respect. "

A Royal sturgeon has been caught la
tliv Ouao , near Goolet , Scotland. It *
capture has raised an interesting ques
tion. As th law now stands all large
flah such as whales , sturgeon and for
merly porpoises if captured within
the three miles limit oi the coast are
royal fish and are claimed by the
coastguard or the customs on behalf
of the crown. In the event of Uui
sturgeon being a particularly fln
specimen , It U forwarded to the queen.
The law In Scotland in regard to
Whales is the same as in England , and
In a contested case in the Scottish
ourts the law was laid down by Lord
Erskine that "whales when largo be
long to the sovereign , when small to
the captor. "

VITICULTURE IN RUSSIA.
Grape culture bos become a power In
Russia during the last decade. Cri
mea , where viticulture was formerly
confined almost wholly , has come to
see the industry extend north and cast
into the provinces of Kherson , Podolla
and Bessarabia. Some of the planta
tions are very large , notably that ol
Prince Troubetskol , which covers 500
acres.
The acting British consul at Odessa
is authority for the statement that in
BessArabla especially Is the growth el
the vineyards particularly noticeable
and the quality of the wine excellent
In 1893 108,000 acres in this locality
alone were given up to the grapes
irhlle four years Inter 175,000 acres
were In use. The wines are snld to be
much cheaper than the same kind In
France.
It was only last year that tbo flrst
shipment of Russian wines reached
England , but the Russians confidently
zpeot to make grape culture ono of
their leading products. Odessa has
two champagne factories , opened to
compete with French products.

A Now York dressmaker and a skip-
par , who for ton years has been sailing
between New York and Liverpool , are
tbo central figures In a strange ro
mance that ended this week at Char
lotte , N. C. , which was their original
homo. In 1880 Frank Andrews. of
Charlotte , decided to remove to Texas ,
as hla physician bad recommended u
obtuse of climate. His friend , Wil
liam Gross , decided to go with him
la search of fortune. Cross * wife was
in delicate health and could not ac
company him. Cross spent several
years In T xas , keeping la constant
correspondence with hla wifo. Fin
ally be decided to try hla luck on the
Pacific coast. Ho went to San Fran
cisco and adopted a seafaring life. He
joined the crew of a tramp schooner ,
carrying freight to various ports in
tbo Pacific ocean. When he left Sun
Francisco news cane from his wife
Lhat she was so ill that he could hard
ly hope to reach her beside before she
died. When his vessel , passed out "f
tbo Golden Gate ho thought ho would
ever see his wife again , and the last
tte that hound him to his North Car
olina homo was broken. The ship
W B bovmd on a voyage half way
around the world. In the China Sea
the vessel was caught In a typhoon and
wrecked. Only n few of the crew
were saved. Fcr two days they float
ed in a little c i ii hunt , until a Rus
Ian steamer , L/.amd for a Siberian
port , rescued them. The Russian ship
put in at Vladivostock and the ship
wrecked sailors were left there. Fin
ally Cross came to Now York and re-
cured employment In the transatlan
tic service. Ho bad not written to his
North Carolina friends , nor had ho
heard from them slnco ho left San
Francisco twelve years before. A few
weeks ago Cross was seized with
longing to visit his old home. An
drews , his companion In Texas , hail
returned to Charlotte , and Cross wrote
to him , and learned to his astonish
ment that his wife was still alive , but
could not ascertain where she was
then living. Cross went to Charlotte
at once and tried to find trace of her
The local newepapeis contained ac
counts of Cross' visit theie. Mrs
Gross had recovered from the illness
that brought her to death's door. She
read an account of the loss of the ship
on which her husband sailed "with allen
on board , " and had mourned him as
dead. In 1892 she secured a position
as dressmaker in this city , and has
been living hero ever since , little
dreaming that her husband was sail
ing into port at frequent intervals. Tbo
Charlotte papers were frequently sent
to her by n friend , and in one of them
she read of Cross' return. A little
telegraphing soon settled any doubts
of Identity , and the overjoyed husban.l
and wife arranged for a leunlon at
Charlotte , where they had parted nine
teen years before. They were cordial
ly welcomed by many old friends , and
will begin life anew in the town where
they grew up as children.
