The Uncertainty of Life.
The moral obligation resting upon
ach father and mother to protect
the home is well illustrated by an ex
tract from the Fraternal Monitor :
The uncertainty of 1 jf e is one of the
strongest arguments in favor of life
protection , and it has been bo fre
quently used that by many it is con
sidered a "chestnut" ' . The funny
papers are apt to indulge in quips
ind quirks at the deputy ' s expense ,
ind many a humorous paragraph has
aeen penned , in which the points are
Death and the insurance agent or fra-
: ernal deputy. There is nothing par-
; icularly humorous about Death "when
le comes to your home. A New York
laily recently brought an editorial
ipon the subject that is particularly
nteresting , from which we quote :
'Death never yet took a bribe He
ilways achieves his purpose without
lesitation. It matters nothing to
dm whether the body from which he
las wrenched a soul lies in state , in
he midst of a mourning populace , or
s cheaply coffined and carried to an
ibscure corner of some country church
ard. He is an inexorable creature ,
: nd when he says 'Come ! ' you instant-
y lay aside your work , however im-
tortant it may seem to be , whisper a
ew hasty farewells , and then 3-our
earful friends remark , with bated
ireath , 'He has gone ! ' The strange
iart of it' all is that you cannot
eckon on a 3rear , or a month , or even
. da- , with anything like certainty ,
. " on must be ready for this invisible
aessenger at all times" . And yet the
verage man believes that he is safe
s least for some time against the
isit. He looks at the funeral of the
lan across the street , and thinks
hat is what the man might have ex
acted. The thing to do is to put
our own house in order
When Baby was sick , we gave her Castorla.

When she became Miss , she clung to Castoria.

Origin of MMitge.
Dr. Forestior of Aix-les-Bains has ai
• interesting paper in Le Progres Medic
nl ou "The Origin and Terminology 0 :
Massage. " The physician of l'Hospic <
Evaugoliquo is of opinion that tin
method of treatment now known ai
massage was first introduced into Eu
rope by some of the roturniug members
of Bouaparto's Egyptian expedition 0 ]
1799 , and relies for his informatior
upon a book entlitled "Des Eanx Ther
males d'Aix en Savoio , " published ai
Chambory in 1808.
Dr. Daquin , the author of the worl
in question , after a passage apropos oi
the douche , speaks of the manipulations
and frictions which were observed bj
Captain Wallis among the aborigines oi
Otaheito , and then proceeds as follows
"Thoso who followed the Emperor Na
poleon in Egypt inform us that tliiE
method was also in existence among the
people of that country , aud that it was
employed after the bath. The name of
niassement' has been given to it , and it
is administered to the person whom they
want to inasser by rubbing successively
the entire surface of his body.
"According to this account I think
that this operation , which strikes mo as
a very salutary procedure , might with
great advantage bo put in practice after
their bath or douche upon these who
make use of our thermal waters. "
London Lancet.
Curiosities of the Sewlnp Needle.
Sewing needles of bone , stone , glass
and bronze antedate all historic records ,
but those of iron , brass and steel are
comparatively modern. Bone and glass
needles have been found in Egyptian
tombs that are known to bo owr 4,000
years old , and similar domestio instru
ments of bronze and copper have been
found in the mounds and burial caves
of Europe and America which are be
lieved to be much older than these
found with the Nile mummies. The
needle first appeared in its present form
in European countries in the year 1410 ,
but the art of making them was kept a
secret for upward of 150 years after the
date last given. In the year 1080 they
were first zaatz in the American colonies
nies , but at what point is a mooted
question among the historians.
At present there are no needle fac
tories in America , except those which
make sewing machine needles , it being
considered much cheaper and moro eco
nomical to impoit them from the great
Eedditch and other English needle fac
tories than to make them at home. Our
great National Needle company at
Springfield , Mass. , makes about 30 , -
000,000 machine needles every year , and
the gieat Itedditch ( English ) company
makes three times that many , or 90 , -
000,000 , of the hand variety annually.

Cost or Irciich Opera Boxes.
When the old Marquis de Casa Riera ,
who had for many years the great Eutre
Colonnes box on the right side for
which he paid , if I remember rightly ,
1,200 a year , and which , though he
was blind , ho filled every night with
pretty women died some 15 years ago ,
there was a hot flutter of excitement in
the Paris of the opera as to what would
become of the succession to the box.
After a palpitating struggle of influ
ences , efforts and diplomacy , equal iu
emotion to the contest between Ulysses
and the Telamonian Ajax for the armor
of Achilles , the nephew and heir of the
old marquis managed to keep the box
for one night a week he could not ob
tain more and it was won for each of
the other nights by persons of the high
est place , who had been longing for it
impatiently for years. An ordinary box
for one night a week costs from 240 to
320 a year , according to its size and
situation. The combat for boxes is un
ceasing. It is one of the features of the
rich life of Paris , and to those who
know the people and the circumstances
the combat is diverting to watch.
Blackwood's Magazine.
Monday Is Washday.
I don't see why it isn't just as well to
bang out the family wash on Wednesday
as upon Monday. Yet I have known wo
men who wouldn't have a flat unless
they could wash on Monday. As five
floors of two families each can't dry in
the back yard and on the roof on the
same day , aud the Monday prejudice is
very strong , landlords have had to erect
tinge telegraph poles in the rear of flat
liouses , from which pole lines are oper-
ited on a level of each floor. This sys-
: em also affords the additional pleasure
) f a near view of tiie number and char-
lcter of your neighbors' family wash.
There must be some substantial reason

The Luxurious Romans.
The Romans had no flower shows.
Chere were "bread and circuses , " but
lot bread and flowers. The luxurious
Soman used roses in enormous quanti-
ies at his banquets. It was a fine joke
o have roses fall from above on guests ,
eclining at their tables , and the flowers
n such quantities as to smother them.
L writer in The Quarterly recalls a pic-
ureof Alma Tadema's "The Rose Feast
f Elagabalus , " which shows the super-
bun dance of roses. To spend on a ban-
net in roses 4,000,000 sesterces , equiv-
lent to about $100,000 , is recorded by
'uetouius ' , but possibly Suetonius exag-
erates.
