And modest Violet's mother keptthe lodge be

No gold or gems to deck her hair, no silken

These Maiden-flower grew, and waxed more

A CHAPTER OX BEARDS.
How .11 en Have Cultivated and Worn
Tbent Ilimute Historical HInta.
Men wear their beards as thev may
pleae. The question, "Shall I shaver'
is important only to the man that asks
it, yet it was all the difference at one
time between ostracism and being in the
Btyle, and at another of coming within
the bounds of Mother Church and being
a schihinatic. No Mohammedan dares
shave to-day unless he belongs to a cer
tain sect, for it is a sufficient mark of con
tempt to call a man a "no beard," and an
insult not to be borne to threaten to tear
it, while you can wish the Moslem no
better fortune than that his beard may
grow. When Selim I. in the sixteenth
century dared to bliave ofl his beard be
allocked the Faithful more than if he
had cut ofl' the whoie.iopulation of a
conquered town. It was a bold act for
him to smile at the Mufti's remonstrance.
It is a sijrn of the complexity of the
differentiation of modern civilization.
Herbert Spencer might say that every
man wears his hair as he pleases or none
at all if he so choose. That the full
beard is a mark of savagery was the opin
ion of almost all ancient civilized peoples.
Consequently the young Roman shaved
when he assumed the virile togit,and de
nominated all savages by a term from
which we derive the word "barbarian,"
meaning bearded. The Romans who played
thatscurvy trickon the Sabine women were
probably hairy fellows, but their refined
descendants shaved off the hair of all the
body except of the scalp. When the
first barber landed in Rome from Sicily
about three centuries before "Christ, the
new practice of shaving was no doubt
rigorously denounced ly the old gray
beards, staunch conservatives always, out,
like all iiiijwrted luxuries, it grew Into
favor. Tlio-e who shave closely have"nt
least illustrious examples to point to.
. They would hardly go so far that even
the hair of the bond was not spared.
This cleanly people abhorred hair, that is,
natural hair; yet they wore wigs con
stantly and unified beards at times.
W:eu their artists depict a man
with a beard of several days'
growth they mean "this fellow
was a sloven or of a low degree."
It was a mark of distinction on the
pHrt of the warrior returning from the
campaign, for it meant he had had no
chance to cut it off. Though they wore
no beards and despised the long-haired
and bearded Greek, yet they had respect
for this natural excrescence as a marlc of
manhood, and they wore at times an
artificial beard tied to the head. A
smooth-faced, bald-headed man can
claim the Egyptian sculptures as his
fashion-plate.
He who clings to his beard may comb
it daily with assiduous care, and even
encircle it with a ring if proud of its
length of filament, but he would hardly
follow the Assyrian fashion and plait it
in many rolls and bind it with ribbons,
nor would he put it in a case as the an
cient dwellers by the Nile did with their
false beards. The Israelites who gath
ered at Jerusalem would be his ex
emplars, for they were proud of their
unadorned beurds, and retained them
even in captivity among the clean-pated
pyramid builders. Joseph shaved him
self before auswering the summons of
Pharaoh, that he might not be offensive
to the mighty ruler, which is only an
arly instance of that capacity of ac
commodating themselves to circum
stances which makes the Jew so powerful
to-day.
The beardless face is the fashion of the
gladiator and the prize-fighter for the
same reason that Alexander's valiant sol
diers shaved their chins by royal com
mand, in order that they might not carry
about with them a handle whereby the
enemy could seize them. The reason was
Sood, for there might have been hostile
iquiries for the youthful conqueror on
the partof his own army.
But men who grow beards are as proud
of them as of their children. Are they
aot their own product and full of in
dividual idiosyncrasy? Every crinkle
Beans something, if it represents nothing
anore than a dime saved from the barber.
Peter the Great knew human nature,
and used his knowledge to extort money
from his subjects. He laid a tax on
beards, and at first raised more commo
tion than copecks. But the Government
barbers began shaving off the beards of
delinquents, when the tax was paid with
expedition.
The mustache has leen an object much
solicited. The man utxin whose upper
lip a constant shadow hangs is the one
who finds it most necessary to stroke it;
it must be nursed and coaxed. Man
hood has advanced its sign, aud the boy's
thoughts are always on it. With how
much envy he looks on the next young
man whose upjer lip's crop has a "year's
growth? It's tiny filaments he endeavors
to twist to a point. He waxes it to make
it lie down. The young man has done
thk in every age and clime where hair
was not despised. To return to the
ancient dwellers by old Nile the young
Egyptian -was spared one of the most
anxious periods of life, for his father had
shaved him constantly since he was five
yeans old, leaving only a couple of locks
to hold him by should he prove to be a
renegade. Yet the mustache has been as
much preached at as any sin man can
commit. Englishmen of a century or so
ago looked on it that is the mustache
solus as a French frivolity. The court
ly Frenchman of the time "of the Louises
trained this appendage of his face to an
unnatural length. Lntil recently the
English prejudice still showed, itself in
regulations which prevented its display
in the army and among the clergy. Just
now, and among Americans, the mustache
is the favorite form of hair upon the face.
In its place it sets off the face, and doctors
declare that it is of great use in straining
the air which goes into the lungs.
Neither dust nor ordinary smoke will go
through with it When cultivated to
xcess it is valuable as a coffee-strainer.
. The man who, when he takes a spoonful
6fsoup; lifts his mustache with his lft
hand, and carefully depositing the side of
the spoon on the edge of the cavern dis
played beneath, tilts it over until the
contents are spilt, is not a graceful object
at dinner. In the name of all that is
cleanly, the inveterate tobacco-chewer
should eschew either the long mustache
or his favorite quid.
Englishmen and Irishmen to some
extent afreet side whiskers. Anglomaniac
Americans do the same. Josh Billings,
a cloe observer of human nature, says
that nine-tenths of all the men who wear
side whiskers are membersof some church.
Let the reader look around him this
morning and judge if Josh is not about
right. Side whiskers become some faces,
but even Oscar "Wilde would not defend
a red face framed in pale gold whiskers
as an object of beauty. There are twe
varieties of this species. One is the rathet
elegant affair which is loug and slightly
scanty of hair. The other variety it
shorter, bushy, and has a curl forward.
This is worn by cads.
The imperial was first cultivated in
France. When it is full and has an ele
gant curl, it may be graceful, and is al
ways rather becoming.
The goatee popularly supposed to be
named for the odoriferous animal
which wears it has a smack of
humor in it It gives one " the
impression that its owner is a( jester,
or, at least, a man full of quaint conceits.
On a full face, otherwise shaven, it some
times has a comical air.
How severe is the man who has his
whiskers and beard clipped off square.
He is square also in all his dealings, and
measures other folks' morals by rule and
plumb. He would reduce life to geo
metrical figures and lay out the road to
Heaven by a species of theological trig
onometry. His is the "beard of formal
cuts," which the melancholy Jacques de
scribes man as wearing in the sixth or
magisterial age. The pointed beard is
an affectation of the fjast, and was the
mark of a gallant Not so the double
pointed beard, which is the sign of a
cleft chin hidden under it. The hair
does not part gracefully without this.
The beard is a mark of sanctity. Wis
dom is thought to accompany it when
long and whitened by the snow of age.
Its cold color is proof that the fires of
nature are declining and the ashes are
appearing on the surface. The Hindoo
sages, who in the literature of that people
spend lonj years in contemplation, are
represented as wearing long beards which
flow into their laps. Jupiter is always
represented with a full and flowing
beard as the accompaniment of wisdom
and strength. Yet there are few of the
great men of the world who were re
markable for their beards. The Grecian
sages wore them, but a hasty glance
through a portrait gallery of the great
men of literature and science shows few
full beards. Shakespeare wore a mus
tache alone. So did Sir Thomas Brown,
a man of contemplation.
Women and children love a full beard.
They delight to run their fingers through
its curving mosses, and women know
how easily a mau is soothed by that sort
of caress. When Vivian pursued Mer
lin, intent upon stealing from him the
charm of the woven paces in the depths
of the forest she wooed him to notice her
by casting herself down at his feet as he
sat with eyes uplifted under an oak, and
combed his beard with her fingers and
made a veil of it, in which she hid her
lithe form. So she lulled the old man
until he forgot his wisdom and told her
the secret. And then the vixen wove the
charm of his destruction.
Women sometimes have" beards, but
they are not proud of them. The ap
pearance of one on an old woman's face
marks a departure from full womanhood.
Witches were supposed to wear them.
Man has always had a horror of a bearded
woman, but the slight mustiche on
the lip of the brunette beauty is thought
becoming.
The inhabitants of England never
could be brought to eschew the natural
adornment of their faces, notwithstand
ing the regulations of the Church 4
Rome for the government of the clergy;
and in the steady adherence of English
Eriests to their beards and their wives
iv the seeds of the Reformation. On
such threads does history hang. On the
other hand, there are races who cannot
grow the beard, and consequently dislike
or neirlect it Xrirroes and Mongolians
seldom have anything approaching it
The Indian brave kept his face clean of
hair, which .only grew stragglingly, and
the first step when a white mah was
adopted into any tribe was the removal
of the hair on hi face. This the squaws
effected by scraping with an oyster shell.
Rough, tear-drawing shaving! It brought
out roots and all, and extirpated the
hair.
Barbers are a product of civilization.
Their importance has declined. They
are no longer the surgeon and dentist of
the village, but still maintain their char
acter as news circulators. Barbers cut
a larger figure in Oriental literature and
that of Southern Europe than they do in
the tales and poems of hardier climates.
It seems strange that the barber should
be an important member of society
among a people who do not shave as a
rule, but the barbers of Mohammedan
countries are given to the comb rather
than the razor. It is Moslem luxury to
sit in a cool stall while an active barber
laves, combs and perfumes the beard,
accompanying his work with recitals of
stories of genii and afrits and beautiful
women, or selections from the poets.
Fashions have changed from time to
time in beards. Now it was the pointed,
now the T beard, and again it might be
the mustache. But fashions have ceased
to say anything about it, and every
variety is worn. A count made at a
place frequented by men in this city one
day gave the following results: Twent
five men wore the mustache alone, five
the full beard, and nine the beard clipped;
ten wore full mustache and clipped
beards, five the mustache and imperial,
aud two the goatee; two wore side
whiskers alone, an unusually small
number; one the imperial, and two
smooth chins, while four wore no hair.
Thus it seems the mustache is the favorite
in Cincinnati, the beard in some form
ranking next In winter a large propor
tion of beards would be found. Thesr
figures indicate the favorite styles here.

bent on colonies, Madagascar is a most
tempting prize, as it is twice as large a
Britain, contains most fertile provinces of
varying climates, good rivers, and fine
harbors, and is full of minerals. It is,
however, a great pity that any European
Power should interfere in the island, for
the Hovas, the dominant race, a tawny
people, apparently Polynesian, exhibit a
marked tendency to develop an original
civilization; and as they would resist the
invaders, the French would be compelled
to rely on the Negritos, a decidedly in
ferior people. It is possible, however,
that the French Government may think

pected a little too large. Queen Rana

Ralsiaf Calves en Skim Milk.
A calf should be allowed to suck its
dam for three to seven days after birth,
according to its strength and condition;
then taken away and fed its mother's
milk, fresh drawn and warm, all it will
drink, night and morning. It is easily
6oon taught to drink this from a pail, by
placing your fingers in its mouth, and
dipping the nose about half an inch deep
into the milk. After two to three weeks'
age, according to the condition of the
calf, one-fourth of skim milk, warmed to
blood heat may be mixed with new milk:.
Increase the skim milk if the calf is doing
well in another week to one-half skim
milk. In the fourth to sixth week, to
three-fourths; afterward feed all skim
milk. In doing this, do not forget to al
ways warm the milk. When it comes to
half skim milk, put a -heaping teaspoon
f ul of oil meal in it night and morning.
If this was first scalded with boiling
water it would be better, or a gill of
meal or more may be boiled to a jelly,
and an even tablespoonsul or two of this
be put warm into the milk, as it would
keep without souring for a few days.
After the third week of tuts ieediag,
the oil meal can be increased to an even
tablespoouf ul, and thus go on, increasing
very gradually to a half pint morning
and night by the time the calf gets .to
be four months old. After the calf is
six weeks old or so it is about as well for
the oil meal to be put in the milk, that is,
without being scalded. Oil meal lubri
cates the bowels and keeps them in good
order. Great caution must be used to
get it pure not adulterated with any
other substance, such as plaster of Paris,
etc. If adulterated it might poison the
calf. If the oil meal is made after the
"new process," Jhat is, pressing more oil
from the groiyid seed than was formerly
done, it might require double the quan
tity to be mixed with the milk that I
have stated above. If we could buy
pure flaxseed and make a jelly of this to
feed to calves, it would be a sure thing,
and much better than to trust to the oil
meal usually on sale by mill-feed deal
ers. Calves. may generally be gradually
stopped off their milk after four months
age, and then fed on grass or hay. If to
this was added a pint of provender night
and morning, made up of nine-tenths oats
and one-tenth flaxseed, ground together,
it would accelerate their growth, and
keep them in fine condition. If this
cannot be had, some advise scalding the
grain and seed; let the two soak a while
together and then feed. As I have never
tried this, I advise to watch the effect
closely at the beginning, and see that the
calf does well on the whole grain and
seed.- Don't feed raw Indian meal or
whole corn, except in winter, then it
mar do to feed that mixed half aud half
with wheat shorts or bran, and one-tenth
oil meal; or perhaps cottonseed meal
may be safely substituted for the oil
meal in the mixture. But as this is a
heartier substance than the hitter, I again
advise caution; and be sure and watoh
the effect of the cottonseed meal till you
ascertain that it proves beneficial. Whole
oats may be profitably fed to yearlings
and to cows two to eight quarts per day,
according to age, size and other feed
given at the same time. After two
months old or so, a calf should have a
pinch of salt put into its mess night and
morning. After a year old, this may be
increased to an even or heaping tcaspoon
f ul. But a lump of Liverpool rock salt
f ilaced in a box which they can get at to
ick at pleasure is better.
Calves sometimes scour. The best
thing I have found to stop this is to stir
half -a pint of wheat flour into boiling
water, thus making a mush of it When
cooled to blood warmth, feed to the calf,
and if it does not stop the scouring re
peat the dose and give no other food till
the little animal gets welL This boiled
flour is the more beneficial because it acts
both as a medicine aud nourishing food.
Buckwheat flour is poor food at best for
calves; some contead that it acts as a
slow poison in the stomach, but if it is
pure and sweet I doubt this last asser
tion. A correspondent speaks of having
calves dropped in autumn. It would be
much better to have them come in the
spring, earlier or later according to the
climate of the locality. After the calf is
about two months old, put a very little
hay or grass before it, and it will soon
begin to nibble this, but will not eat
much till four months old or past. If
the weather be genial, it is better to let
the calf run in a small pasture where
the grass is short, every fair day.
Whether here or in stable, it should have
fresh, clear water which it could reach
and drink at pleasure. Strictly follow or
modify with good judgment all the above
directions, and I think one need have no
trouble in raising fine strong calves.: A.

cts Worth Remembering
Sudden deaths do not come from heart
disease one case in twenty but from
the congestion of the lungs or brain,
or from apoplexy. More die from
congestion of the luugs than of the brain,
and more of congestion of the brain than
from apoplexy. Sudden death from
heart disease is usually caused by rup
ture of some large artery near the heart;
from congestion of the lungs by instantly
stopping the breath; from congestion of
the brain, by causing pressure on the
brain, which paralyzes and instantly de
stroys life; from apoplexy by hemorrage
of the brain. Heart disease most fre
quently results from neglected or im
properly treated rheumatism. It more
often follows mild rheumatism than the
severe kind, because severe rheumatism
receives prompt treatment, while the
mild form is olten neglected and left to
work its way to the heart Persons who
suppose themselves to be suffering from
heart disease because they have pain in
the region of the heart, or palpitation,
seldom have any disease of that organ.
In nine cases out of ten they are suffer
ing from dyspeptia nothing more. Con
gestion of the lungs is most frequently
caused by a sudden change from the
heat of an ill ventilated room or railroad
car or horse car to the cold air outside,
without being protected by sufficient
clothing; hence many persons thus seized
drop dead in the streets. Congestion of
the brain most frequently results from
trouble and anxiety of mind, producing
sleeplessness, followed by engorgement of
the small blood-vessels of the brain, sud
den loss of vital power and almost instant
death. Apoplexy may be an inherited
disease, or it may be induced by too free
living, or its opposite, too great abste
miousness. Paralysis may affect only a
small portion of the body, from a finger
or toe to an entire limb, or it may dis
able half the body or the whole body,
when death soon follows. When half
the body is affected by paralysis we may
be certain that the seat of the disease is
in the opposite side of the brain, because
nerve fibres cross. Partial paralysis is
often temporary when caused by the rup
ture of a small blood-vessel, if the clot
is got rid of by absorption or other
wise, although this is a disease
that all classes of people are liable to, its
most destructive work is done among the
depraved and dissipated. There is no
doubt that the habitual use of tobacco is
one of the most prominent causes of par
alysis and other nerve diseases. A se
vere cold can be soonest cured by remain
ing within doors, in a warm room and
near the fire, until all signs of it have
disappeared. Then care should be taken
to prevent a relapse by having the feet
warmly clad, and the whole body, and
particularly the chest and the back of
the neck, well protected when going out
A recent cough will almost alway yield
to the following treatment within two or
three days: Mix in a bottle four ounces
of glycerine, two ounces of alcohol, two
ounces of water, two grains of morphine.
Shake well. 'Dose for an adult oae or
twe teaspoonfuls every two or three
hours. Half this quantity to children
from ten to fifteen years old. It is not
safe to give it to infants or children un
der ten years of age. To stop bleeding,
if from a cavity in the jaw after a tooth
has been extracted, shape a cork into
the proper form and size to cover the
cavity, and long enough to be kept firmly
in place when the mouth is closed. This,
we believe, iB our own invention, and we
have never known it to fail. It lias served
us in desperate cases. When au artery
is cut the red blood spurts out at each
pulsation. Press the thumb firmly over
the artery near the wound, and on the
side toward the heart Press hard enough
to stop the bleeding, and wait till a
physician comes. The wounded person
is often able to do this himself if he hat
the requisite knowledge. Simple frac
tures may be adjusted by almost any one.
Get the limb as nearly as possible in the
natural position and then send for the
doctor. There is no great urgency in
such cases. In fracture of the skull,
with compression and loss of conscious
ness, examine the wound and, if possible,
raise the broken edges of the skull so as
to relipVfl thp nrpsstire nn tbt brain.
J Prompt action will often save life. In
case of poisoning the simple rule is to get
the poison out of the stomach as soon as
possible. Mustard and salt act promptly
as emetics, and they are always at hand.
Stir a' tablespoonful in a glass of water
and let the person swallow it quickly.
If it does not produce vomiting in five
minutes repeat the dose. After vomit
ing give whites of two or three eggs and
send for the doctor. Burns and scalds
are soonest relieved by an application of
cold water. Dry carbonate of soda, or
baking soda, sprinkled over the burned
spot is the latest remedy, and is said to
be very effectual. These means are only
temporary. In severe cases a physican
should be sent for. HaWs Journal of
Health.
Nostrums Don't Bny Then.
Under whatever name they come let
them entirely alone. The peddling, nui
sance has become almost unbearable.
Haifa dozen or more times each day is
the housewife called to the door and im
portuned to purchase silver plating fluid,
or fire proof powder or some cure all for
every disease, while the farmer at his
work is haunted by the lightning rod fiend
who will put up a rod at half price for
the good the farmer's name will do him
as a purchaser, or an equally smooth talk
ing fellow wants to make him agent for
some very quick selling farm implement
on which the commissions are very large,
and if a bargain is concluded and an
order given mayhap the farmer soon finds
a note in the bankover his signature, equal
to the amount of the order. And these
parasites continue to harass the whole
year around until every one who does not
want to be duped or swindled feels like
loading his gun. The only safe way is to
put your foot down solidly, pay no money
for peddled nostrums, give no orders to
any man you do not know will do as
agreed, and put off your premises all the
leeches who go around offering some
thing for nothing.
A firm in Pennsylvania offer to farmers
and gardeners "the vitative compound"
or seed and plant "invigorater," purely
chemical and patented. It is put up
in little boxes, price $1 each, and con
tains less than two ounces of a mixture
of sulphate of zinc, acetate of lead and
alum, costing in the drug store two or
three cents,
Dr. Kedzie justly queries what possi
ble influence white vitrol, sugar of lead
and alumina can have on vegetable ger
mination and development They form
no part in the chemicals of agriculture.
But credulity is large in the rural
make-up and very likely these vendors
will find plenty of purchasers. Detroit

Locust Timber (Jrowing,
The locust and eucalyptus grow to be
ntagnificent trees in this climate, and
each possesses a hard, fine grained tex
ture that recommends these woods for
use in the manufacture of wagons and
agricultural implements. In early days
a great many locust trees- were planted
in Napa and- vicinity, which have at
tained fine proportions and tall, straight
spires. The wood of each of these trees
is free from worms and the rot blight
But the locust particularly, as hardwood,
possesses many qualities that recommend
it for displacing the hickory and oak jin?
ported. It seasons without checking,
and is tough, springy in the young wood
and finer grained than hickory. For
wagon hubs it is better than the timber
now used, and one Sacramento wagon
maker uses no other timber for the hubs
of the vehicles he turns out In this dry
climate other timber used for such pur
poses seem to check on being wet, and
for such season the locust is found desir
able for purposes where the wagon mate
rial is alternately subjected to being wet
ted and dried. The locust is a very rapid
grower on good .soils if not planted too
thickly to the acre, and has no superior
for fuel purposes when season, creating a
hot fire and burning without kindling.
The problem of hard woods of native
S reduction might be solved by putting
own plantations of locust and eucalyp
tus, which in from fifteen to twenty-hve
years would be in good marketable con
dition. Many trees planted twenty years
ago in this vicinity are now two feet in
diameter, and had they been planted for
other purposes than for shade trees along
avenues of travel, they might be turned
to profitable account for manufacture
into wagon stuff. Napa (Cal.) Reporter.
Utilizing Land.
Throughout most of central Europe,
where land is dear and holders have but
few acres, every foot of ground is utilized.
Fruit trees are planted by the farmers
and cottagers with judicious care and
discrimination in their fields and gardens.
In an ordinal y season they gather an
abundance of luscious fruit, not only
enough to supply their ordinary wants
but also to send large quantities to
market, from which they realize an ac
ceptable addition to their income. This
is all done without losing a square inch
of ground that could be devoted profit
ably to any other food crop. The trees
are planted along roadsides, on the
margin of the fields, in the hedgerows,
and other odd places and corners, where
they occupy ground that cannot be con
veniently cultivated. Of course, land is
cheaper here, but still it would be a wise
measure for every owner of land to plant
trees along the roadside and in every
suitable place for them to grow; if not
fruit trees, forest trees, walnut trees,
mulberry trees, or any kind of a tree may
in time be useful for some purpose. We
are too careless and prodigal, and there
fore lose many of our advantages, and

icle. Without Any Beard.
The king of Spain sent an ambassador
to the Pope, a young man of high extrac
tion, with a special mission. The
Pope, informed that a special envoy of
the king of Spain demanded an audience,
imagined that he would received an aged
minister covered with stars, and vener
able white hair, etc. Instead of which
in walked with light elastic steps quite a
young man. Haughty and irritable, the
Pope looked at him, and at last said:
"Are all the old diplomatists in Spain
dead, that the King sends us a young boy.
without even a beard?" ("Um jeune
homme imberbe.") "Holy father." said
the indignant Spaniard, "if the King, my
master, had thought that honor coasiita
in a beard, he would have sent you a
coat, and sot a nobleman, like myself

A Quaker Wedding.
Prof . Francis Barton Gummerc, Ph.D.,
(Freiburg), last year instructor of Eng
lish literature at Harvard College, aud
ju-:t appointed head master of the new
"Swain Free School," at New Bedford,
was united in marriage to Miss Amelia
Smith Mott, daughter of Richard F.Mott,
at the Friends' meeting-house, in Bur
lington, "Ninth month, 14th."
The ceremony, though it had all the
essentials of the Quaker marriage service,
oddly but prettily combined the accesso
ries which are usually regarded as pecu
liar to church weddings. There were
bridesmaids and groomsmen and ushers.
The antique uieeting-lnuse on Main
i street, of course, could not be decorated
I at all, but the gay attire of the "world's
1 people," who came in from friendship or
j curiosity, partly, relieved its grim plain
ness. The general public may uot know
! that in addition to "first dav" meeting,
Friends always hold one in the middle
of the week, answering to the Friday or
other mid-week services of other denom
inations, except that it is held in the
morning. It is at this time that mar
riages are usually solemnized. In Bur
lington the day is Thursday. By 10:80
o'clock an unwonted throng, many in
carriages, astonished the venerable
Friend who has charge of the meeting
house, but who saw himself temporarily
superseded by the youthful ushers. As
the doors were open to all, many
strangers filled the stiff, uncomfortable
seats in the wooden gallery, but all
observed the proprieties of the place.
The etiquette (if the term may be used) on
such occasions wipes out temporarily the
line between the men's and women's
sides of the meeting, and they sit to
gether promiscuously. Seats are re
served for the contracting parties on the
"women's side," immediately at the foot
of those elevated benches on which the
"leaders of the meeting" sit, confronting
the rest. To these places, when all was
still, the wedding party entered through
the open door, the ushers leading the
Way. No "wedding march pealed
forth" on this occasion, nor was there
any parade of flowers and ribbons. When
seated, the bride's father and the groom's
mother sat side by side, accompanied by
a brother-in-law and a sister-in law to
represent the deceased parents. The
bridesmaids and groomsmen sat opposite,
the small table on which the certificate
was to be signed being between.
The lovely bride who might serve as a
painter's ideal of the pure, refined
Quaker maiden at her best estate, sat
quietly with downcast eyes, but very
pale. Friends, in spite of "plainness,"
have always lieen noted for indulgence
in rich fabrics, and she was no excep
tion, her dress being of the finest creamy
satin, with long train and cut V-shaped
at the throat, with point applique lace,
and a bunch af naturnl flowers at the
waist She wore a small bonnet of white
straw, trimmed with white silk, but
without veil or strings, this forming the
main departure from the conventional
wedding costume. Her hands were cov
ered with long white kid gloves, and she
carried a swan's-down fan. The brides
maids were more simply dressed in com
bination costumes of white silk, em
broidery and tarlatan. The groom, who
is tall an stalwart in figure, with full
beard, making him look much older than
his years, wore dark clothes, with frock
coat and modem silk hat, as did his at
tendants. None wore hats in meeting
save the venerable friend who seemed to
E reside on the men's side, and he laid
is off during prayer. Just as the silence
was becoming painful Friend Phoebe
Elkinson, of Philadelphia, rose in the
high seats on the women's side and spoke
a few words, partly of invocation,
founded upon the Savior's presence at
the marriage in Cana. Soon after 11
o'clock arrived, and with it the supreme
trial of nerve and self possession. At a
signal from a Friend, Prof. Gummere
stood up manfully, and, tendering his
hand to Miss Mott, she rose more slowly,
and they stood facing the whole meeting.
In a full, even voice he pronounced the
solemn formula settled upon by imme
morial usage;
"In the presence of the Lord and this
assembly I take Amelia Smith Mott to
be my wife. I promise, with the Divine
assistance, to be unto her a loving and
faithful husband until death shall sepa
rate us."
There was a pause, but the bride, col
lecting herself and looking up as if for
strength aud guidance, said reverently in
a clear and beautiful voice:
"In the presence of the Lord and of
this assembly I take Francis Barton,
Gummere to be my husband, promising,
with the Divine assistance, to be unto
him a loving and faithful wife until
death shall separate us."
Their part of the ceremony, though
toying, yet admirably brief, was over,
and tne newly wedded pair seated them
selves again. Another pause and Friend
John Garrett rose and delivered a mild
and temperate discourse, general in its
tone, upon the lessons of Christ's appear
ance at Cana. Then Friend Deborah
Thomas, of Baltimore, knelt upon the
other side and offered a fervent prayer
for all good gifts to those present But
one ceremony remained the sign
ing of the certificate, which in this form
of marriage is done by the parties them
selves aqd "witnessed by so many of
those present as wish, which includes all
the relatives and friends, thus admitted
to a pleasant and lasting participation in
the event. Both sides of Professor and
Mrs. Gummere's certificate, on a roomy
sheet of parchment, were nearly covered
with signatures. But first it is to be read
to the meeting. Friend Rowland Dut
ton arises and unfolds it as follows:
FORM OF CEUTIFCATE.
Whereas, miming the parties, with their res
idence and parentage having- .declared their
intentions of marriage with each other before
a monthly meeting- or the rellrloui society of
Friends, held at Burlington, N. J., according t
the good order used among them, and having
consent of their surviving- parents, their salq
proposal of marriage was allowed of by the
said meeting. Now, these are to certify, whom
it may concern, that for the full accomplish
ment of their said Intentions, this fourteenth
day of the ninth month In the year of our Lord
lssfc. the said Francis B. Gummere and Amelia

An appalling railway accident, simi
lar to the Tay bridge disaster, has oc
curred on the line oonncctiug the occu
pied provinces with Hungary. At a
small town called Essecr. on the confines
ot Slavonia, the railroad crosses a wood
en bridge over the River Drave. which,
has lately risen considerably aboe
Its normal level, inundating a great
part of the country through which
it Hows. At Esse; it formed a
rushing torrent, aud yesterday it
hail reached 278 centimeters abovo
Hood line. The bridge itself is a some
what primitive wooden construction,
reposing on piers of the same mate
rial. It has been ued for railway tratlic
for the last twelve cars, but was to be
replaced by an iron structure next De
cember. It must have been in bad con
dition, a? it had long been predicted
that sooner or later an accident must
happen. The heavy current resulting-;
from the Hooded state oi the river had
driited all kinds of debris against the
bridge, which does not appear to have
been providedwith cut-waters. Hence,
the f oatinor rubbish accumu'ated. and
this was doubtless the main cause of
yesterday's disaster. The passengers
of the ill-fated train consisted almost
exclushely of a part o. the Fifteenth
Hussar regiment, returning- home on
leave from Seiajevo and Mostar. Just
as the first part of it was crossinr tho
sixth and seventh arches of the bridge
the woodwork gave way, and, acom
vanied by a loud crash, the engine, ten
der, two goods vans and two passenger
carriages .vcre hurled into the swollen
stream below. Some thirty men were
drowned, tho number of those who es
caped being estimated at forty-nine.
i lie engine driver and stoker man
aged to swim ashore, and although the
breach measured sixty meters the rest
of the train remained on the bridge, tho
coupling chains having, fortunately,
snapped asunder. Seventeen men were
more or less seriously injured, but the
ollioers, who were in the end carriage,
do not appear to have .been hurt An
engineer and his assistant, who hap
pened to be on the bridge when the
accident occurred, also escaped, the
lonuer by j-winrming ashore, and the
latter by catching hold of a projecting
plank as he fell. -They were the only
eye witnesses of what occurred. One
of the carriages fell on a sand-bank,
and the roof is just visible above water.
The other fell in the middle of the tor
rent, and was carried three hundred
mete.s down the river. It is hardly
ne -essaiy to say that the news of this
fresh disaster has caused profound con
sternation throughout ihe country.
- It hough less serious in its consequences
than the catastrophe at Segedin, the
burning of the Ring Theater, or the
Hoods in the Tyrol, it iof a particularly
distressing chara ter. The poor fellows
wh met with such an untimely end
yesterday had, after three or four years'
exile and hardship obtained their well
earned dis-harge from the ranks, and
were, no doubt, eagerly looking for
ward to meeting their'friends again.
Many of them had es aped death on the
battle-field in L'osnia, and others had
recovered from sickness that has lately
been so prevalent among the troops in
Ihe occupied provinces. Full of hope
and making merry as best they could
on their ourney" home these thirtv
young men were suddenly hurried to
their' account It is one of the saddest
accidents on continental railway record.
The disaster was due in a great
measure to negligence. Several dav9
ago the bridge showed signs of inse
curity. L'esides the locomotive and ten
der, the train consisted of an empty
brake van, an open goods van, two
closed vans loaded with corn, two vans
occupied by fifty-seven hussars, a lug
gage van, a post-office car, and seven
passenger carriages. The engine was
crossing the sixth span when the bridge
gave way. The six vans composing uie
front part of tho train fell through with
the locomotive, the coupling chains
having broken, thus dividing the train
in two. Not the slightest trace has yet
been discovered of the engine and ten
der. The four following vans were
drifted by the torrent a considerable dis
t mce down the river, and eventually
stopped by a sand-bank. Those con
taining the hussars were carried along
some throe hundred yards and there
brought to a standstill. None of the
bodies have yet been recovered. There
were a few miraculous cases of escape.
A pioneer managed lo get out of one of
the ill-fated vans, and hang on to the
telegraph wires, which, at the point
where the accident happened, pass
under the bridge. A lieutenant belong
ing to the hus-ars opened the door of
the other van in time to save seven of
his subordinates. Two civilians among
those who happened to be on the bridge
as the train was passing got entangled
in the wreckage and were drowned.
Half a dozen more escaped by jumping
into the water before the final crash ana
swimming ashore. The rescued soldiers;
are all more or less seriously injured.

A Vicious Pest.
An alarming insect pest has made its
appearance in Detroit and vicinity, and
has given and is giving a great deal of
trouble and occasioning no little anxiety.
It has carried destruction into several
line residences and annoyance info a
large number of places, and its name is
legion. The pest is a species of beetle,
iulinitesiinal in size, dark brown in cot
or. active in movement and prolific in
progeny. They breed at the rate of
.-eventy igg a day each, and noth'ng
except water is absolutely safe from
their ravages. They swarm and breed
in the Hour barrel, the suar-box,
the tea chest and other articles of
food. Thev enter crevices in the furni
ture, penetrate beds and bed-clothing,
and make life generally very miserable
for the inmates of the house. Prof. A.
.. Cook, of the Agricultural College,
says that the little beetles are known to
science as sylvanus surimimeiixL", and
are imported from Italy and Spain in
dried fruits. They work on figs, rais.ns
aud wheat, and flourish in all kinds of
meal, flour aud food, such as cake and
bread. Tho smallest ones are not caught
by the finest sieve, and the annoyance
they cause is simply indescribable." Prof.
'ook says that the only way to get
rid of them is to thoroughly clean them,
out and then not introduce them
again, a lucid method of extermination
very hard of application. The raot
effectual remedy is bisulphide of car
bon. a very dangerous explosive. It
has the expansive and explosive power
of gas, but requires a light to set it off.
This remedy should only be applied un
der the direction of a chemist and
treat pre aution should be taken against
fire. Another efficacious remedy is pyr-
cthrum, a harmless powder, apt to be
adulterated or old and so worthless. It
is a powder like flour, applied with a
bellows, and loses its strength when ex
posed to the atmosphere.
The pest threatens to overrun the
State, and as it lives on and thrives in
wheat, the danger of their general in
troduction need not be expatiated upon.
Those who now have them should waste
no time in e.xterminat on, and those
who have not got them should be on
their guard against them.
While upon this subject, there having
been cons'derable inquiry for a poison
for cock-roaches, it may be said that
Prof. Cook states that London purple
mixed orie to twenty with sugar is a
virulent poison for those pests. Detroit
