Tli ToUIcM or Fashion.
Another hurtful and ridiculous fashion is in
the high-heeled boots, which have again
worked round from our great grandmothers.
A Blight heel is an advantage iu walking, but
these high heels, with the excessively small
surface and the shaqjly bevelled sides, make
walking a service of pain and difficulty. Be
sides, they destroy the shape of the leg, which
w something to be considered. They throw
the weight forward and the strain on the shin;
and,! consequently, they diminish the back
muscle, the calf of the leg, and bring out the
bone and muscle of tho forepart into an ugly
bow. The shape of our shoes and boots is in
itself an outrage against common 8nse; but
we women are not alone in this absurdity, nor
are ve to blume; bo that, as the papers deal
with our own follies specially, we may be let
off any personal and peculiar reproof therefor.

THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY,
ine eyelids with axlimony to make tho '
orbit looked larger and the lashen longor, or
that expands the pupils with belladonna, no
matter at what cost of complexion or future
eyesight ? What, too, can we Bay of the
fashion which uncovers the arms and neck iu
the evening, after having clothed theia
through the day in flannel, or volvet, or in
wadded Btuffs ? Women throateneJ with
bronchitis or rheumatism sit all day long in a
warm room mutlled up to the throat in thick
material; at night they uncover below their
shoulders, and go out iu tho cold winter air
with just an opera cloak thrown over their
shivering skins. But this is fashion, and
none of us dare disobey it; none of us dare
go out in the evening with dresses made alter
the pattern of our morning ones, or wear in
the evening low bodices and short Bleevos to
at least equalize the risk, and inure us to tho
evening attire without damage. There is no
intrinsic reason why we should not all be sit
ting in low bodices and short sleeves at this
very moment, though wo will make it 10
o'clock; but if we were, we should bo
thought mad or bad, or both, and not
even our staunchest friends would stand
by us. But wholly one thing or the other
would bo a wiser system than the present, and
would be productive of fewer catarrhs,
bronchial affections, and consumptions. Ah 1
it is a sad thought which springs up from that
last word ! If we could only see, as those
removed from our own sphere would see, the
criminal folly nf sacrificing beautiful and
valuable lives to tho fashion which imposes
naked necks as a rule for evening costume !
Many a Rweet young creature, who would
have lived into happy old ago as a beloved
wife and honored mother, has gone to an early
grave because of that ball or that party at
which she caught cold from exposure. But
fashion so willed it; and neither mother nor
daughter has strength to resist her impalpable
but absolute decrees. We all obey her, young
and old alike; those who should keep their
beauties sacred, and those who have none to
show the delicate who have to be kept alive
by art and care the lean who are too ugly
for any one to find pleasure in tho contempla
tion of their angles the wrinkled, and the
gross; we all parade ourselves in evening
society without more disguise than a bit of
gauze or lace can give, and only very few of
ui uso that, which, even when well on into the
fifties, we consider quite superfluous for any
thing to be gained by concealment. As to the
extent to which we cut down our bodices.
that is a matter too patent and too painful to
be discussed. It is a race among us who shall
wear the dress the lowest and Bhow tho largest
expanse of shoulder. And yet we mean no
harm; we mean only to be fashionable. That
is the worst of it. The nicest women, among
us, pure, high-minded women, who would die
rather than be guilty of impropriety it it ap
peared like an impropriety to them, and whose
very innocence makes them unsuspicious of
evil, get accustomed, as every one must, more
or less, to an objectionable fashion, and lol
low it in pure simplicity of nature as a thing
without meaning or effect. Also, the nicest
wonten among us are just those who always
follow who have not sufficient' boldness of
mind or manner to make a public protest
against anything indorsed by the majority-
women who are not touched by tho evil ol a
baleful custom, and by whose own purity is
eliminated the poison of a mischievous fashion.
They follow, and their moral support bolsters
up the bad habit, and gives countenance to
the bad followers thereof. But what can We
say when originality is still censured as un
womanly, and a . public protest, be it even
against evil, is set down as "strong-minded"
and unfeminrne i llie JJroadicay.
Tlie Dueseldorl Academy,
The celebrated Academy ol l ine Arts in
Dusseldorf has just celebrated the fiftieth
anniversary of its foundation. It dates from
1707, w hen the Electoral Prince Charles Theo
dore of Pfalz-Sulzbach collected in a gallery
the treasures of art he had inherited from his
predecessor and those he had acquired him
self, supplementing the gallery at the same
time by a Bchool of art. The establishment
almost ceased to exist when the county of
Berg fell in 178!t to Bavaria, and the Electoral
Prince Maximilian Joseph had the pictures re
moved to Munich, where they still remain,under
the pretense of putting them in a place o
safety, on account of the threatened war be
tween Prussia and France. The Bavariau
Prince also invited Langer, the talented direc
tor, to Municn in order to lound a new
academy in that city. While Dusseldorf was
in the hands of the French, the former
Academy only vegetated as a needy drawing
fichool. Prussia acquired Berg, and imme
diately the restoration of the Academy win
decided on, but a few years passed over be
fore much was done, as the Government had
in view the establishment of a polytechnic
school in connection with it. At length, in
1811), a satisfactory plan was wrought out with
the aid of Peter von Cornelius, and approved
of by the Government. It was resolved to
separate the polytechnic school (which is now
in Aix-la-Chapelle) from the Academy, and to
reopen the latter for its original purpose,
under the directorship of Cornelius. That
eminent master retained his post till 1824,
when he returned to Munich, the Academy of
which could already boast of a European re
putation, but he had a successor in Schadow
who did much to increase that of the Academy
of Dusseldorf. A monument to Schadow was
unveiled in Dusseldorf on the 24th June.
How to 18 educe Obesity.
Mr. Banting has issued a fourth edition of
his celebrated pamphlet on the dietetio means
of reducing the superfluous fat. In this edition,
says a London paper, Mr. Banting tells the
story of his fame in just the same simple and
unaffected way in which he told the story
which made him famous. He has received,
since the first publication of his pamphlet,
letters of thanks from some two thousand
persons whom he had led to emancipation
from obesity. In all these cases the cure was
complete.
Mr. Bunting brings the history of his expe
rience down to the May of this year. During
five years he has never varied in weight more
than a few pounds, and he has even ventured
to experiment with the forbidden elements of
diet in order to discover which was most pro
ductive of fat. These experiments have had
a curious result. "I have ascertained, by re
peated experimeubj," he says, "'that five
ounces of sugar distributed equally over seven
days, v Licit is not an ounce a day, will aug
ment my weight nearly one pound by the end
of that short period. Tho other forbidden
elenu i.U have not produced so extraordinary
a reMilt.'.' . 1
Mr. Bunting's pamphlet was first printed at
his own expense for gratuitous distribution.
Before two editions had thus been given
away a trade demand for the book sprang up,
and' he was advisad to publish it at Is., that
it might ray expensos. He resolved to pub
lihh it ut and the demand became o
great that sixty-three thousand copies were
oUI,-.ud a profit of 10s. was made.
This money had been distributed to various
charitable institution. Mr. Banting now
Countv Con.
yalcuccnt Hospital for the wotropoli oi Ra
tion, which he only proposes to call in when
'100,000 have been subscribed. He pub
lishes a preliminary list, heading it himself
with T00. Half the things said of him are
exaggerated, and the other half are falso, and
Mr. Banting takes some quiet opportunities
of correcting them. Though rumor has killed
him, and has declared his system to have
failed, he is not only alive and well, but his
ByRtem is still conferring the benefit of whole
Komo muscular development upon himself
and others.
Civilization In Australia.
The London 2'iinett has an attractive picture
of the- condition of affairs in Australia. In
all the chief centres of settlement, it Bays,
Australia is as civilized a country as England
itself. At Melbourne, for instance, the Btreets
are as well paved, pitched, and lighted as at
Liverpool or Bristol; the only difference being
that they are about three times as broad. The
shops are genuine English shops all over.
The roadway is full of drays, wagons, car
riages, and hansoms, just as in London,
though there is less danger of your being
knocked down. It is a little surprising to
find the rarest pineapples ticketed at four a
shilling, and an excellent hot-meat dinner
offered for sixpence; but those novelties, at
nny rate, are not changes for tho worse. We
hardly know, adds the Times, whether to men
tion Btreet music as a recommendation;
but if any London emigrant should have
a fancy for a brass baud in front of his
window, that feature also of bis home-life is
reproduced faithfully at the antipodes. But
what is to be done for the first few doys of
suspense before employment comes in and a
chance of settling is off ered? What becomes
of the new arrival withoui a shilling in his
pocket, and with no knowledge of the country
or its ways? The reply is promptly made.
He is taken under the care of the State, which
provides for him until he can provide for
himself. In a cheerful and healthy suburb of
the town stands the Emigrants' Home, and
in that establishment any emigrant destitute
of means is entertained until the option of
work is found for him. To this place the em
ployers of labor constantly resort, and bar
gains are struck without delay or difficulty.
Our correspondent has known "several hun
dreds" of new-comers engaged and disposed
of in a few hours.
Generally, however, the chief town is not
the place for an emigrant to stay in'. His aim
should be the country; and from Melbourne
the country can be reached in all directions
with tho greatest ease. The centres of mining
and agricultural industry are connected with
the capital by railways; beyond the railways
are good macadamized roads, with good
coaches running on them. These roads lead
towards the interior of a continent almost as
lnrge as Europe, with every variety of soil
and climate. In some parts there are enor
mous tracts of rich land, with hardly a tree
upon it, so that no clearing is required to fit
it for the plough. The interior communica
tions" are remarkably good, insomuch that, in
case of an overstocked labor market at one
point, the emigrant can move himself with
perfect facility and little cost to another;
while in no place does he appear to leave
civilization behind him. The smallest towns
and most remote villages are English towns
and villages still, lairly supplied with all the '
necessaries and net a few of the luxuries of
existence. Well may our correspondent add,
after flnch a description, that no country in
the world could offer better prospects to the
capitalist or greater advantages to the working
man than the British colony of Victoria.
A man who can do nothing whatever would
find even Australia a bad place to live in;
but there is employment, and sometimes
better than employment, ready for all who
can work and save. Just now wages are
"maintained" that is, are not falling, and
the rates of payment are certainty pleasant
to look at. Masons and bricklayers got 10s.
a day; carpenters, Its.; builders' laborers, 7s,:
blacksmiths, 30s. a week; wheolwrights, 35s.
to 40s. On the farm a shepherd may got his
40 a year; a hut keeper, '22; a lad who can
milk, 12s. a week; and a general farm laborer,
lJis. , "Common labor," it is added by way of
Rumniary, "may be quoted at (Js. to 7s. a day."
Nor are these wages reduced in actual value
by high charges of living. Perhaps lodgings
are rather dear, but where a dinner of the
best meat, bread, and vegetables without
stint can be had for sixpence, living must
needs be cheap.
Scientific Notes.
A Test for Glycerin. The increased use
of glycerin in the arts of late has, of course.
brought into the . market an adulterated
article. When sugar and dextrine were mixed
in small proportions with glycerin it has
hitherto been difficult to detect the adultera
tion; but is now easily done by the following
inetnou: 10 nve arops oi the glycerin, to be
tested add 100 to 120 drops of water, one
drop of pure nitric acid, and three to four
centigrammes of ammonium molybdate, and
boil the mixture, and in less than two minutes
it will assume a deep blue color if any sugar
or dextrine is present.
Portable Illuminators. M. Alvergniat, a
French electrician, has made an improvement
first suggested to him when using the tubes
invented by Giessler, which are cylinders or
bulbs of glass filled with rarified gas that be
comes luminous in the dark when a current of
electricity is passed through it. The improve
ment consists in filling a gloss cylinder or
phial, hermetically sealed, with a substance
which becomes phosphorescent by the action
of frictional or static electricity. A tube of
this kind may be of some service to those on
night duty, for all that is requisite to produce
a feeble and ephemeral light is to rub the
tube briskly with a silk handkerchief.
Temperature of the Blood. Dr. J. S.
Lombard has applied his delicate thermo
electric apparatus to the study of the effects
of respiration on the temperature of tha
blood, and has found that very cold and dry
air token into the lungs does not lower the
temperature of the blood sufficient to affect
his apparatus, which will indicate any change
of temperature exceeding l-UOOO of a degree
centigrade; and this may be accounted for by
the fact that at low temperature the air is
more condensed and a larger proportion of
oxygen is inhaled, and by its conversion a
larger amount of heat is generated.
. When to Sweeten Tahth. Dr. Letheby, in
his lectures on Food, states that common
canc-Kugar is adulterated in Europe by means
of Btarch-Bugar or even starch itself. Starch
sugar, or, as it is sometimes culled, grape
sugar, or glucose, has a low sweetening
power not half so great as that of cane
sugar in fact, it is produced from the latter
by the action tf vegetable acids and heat,
when cane-sugar is added to fruit in making
a tart or fruit pie, and in making jellies and
jams. It is fulse economy, therefore, to
sweeten to any extent before the tart is baked.
Some American housewives have discovered,
by practice in making rhubarb pies, which re
quire a hirge amount of the sweotening prin
ciple, that a given quantity of sugar will be
most effective wbf n the larwst portion is
applied to the pis alter it has besn taken
fivw the oven.
Aqtja Reoia and Metallic Sni.rHipss.
Mr. Effort finds that when aqua regia is plac id
in contact with sulphur, or with metallic oroi
containing sulphur, chloride of sulphur is lint
formed by the decomposition of tho hydro
chloric acid, but soon after the first com
pound is destroyed by the nitric acid, and
chlorine gas is set free, while sulphuric acid
is formed. The best proportions of the mixed
acids for Becnring rapid decomposition of sul
phides is one part of hydrochloric acid with
three parts cf nitric acid; the reverse of those
in ordinary aqua regia, which consists of three
of hydrochlorio and one of nitrio acid.
Cement to Resist a Red Heat and Boil
ino Water. A German journal gives two
processes for waking theRe cements. 1st, To
four or five parts of clay, thoroughly dried
and pulverized, add two parts of iron filing
free from oxide, one part of peroxide of man
ganese, one-half part of common salt, and
one-half of borax. These are rubbed together
and made as fine as possible, after which
water enough is added to make thick paste.
It must be applied immediately and then
gradually heated almost to a white heat. 21.
Tq equal parts of Bif ted peroxide of manga
nese and well-pulverized oxido of zinc add a
Bufflcient quantity of silicate of soda (water
glass) to form a thin paste. This mixture
should also be used immediately. It forms
cement quite as hard and durable as that ol
tained by the first method.
Furgueiba. The oil known among tho
Portuguese by this name has recently been
subjected to experiments by Bonis. It con
tains about six per cent, of nitrogen, which
on distillation, is evolved as ammonia. As i
possesses some of the properties of castor oil,
and is obtained, like the latter, from a plan
belonging to the Bpurgo family (cupurbit&n),
ho was led to distil it with an alkali, and the
result of saponification and distillation was
an inflammable complex liquid having an aro
matic odor. Tho portion passing off between
178 deg. and 180 deg. C. has the same compo
sition as caprylic alchohol, which is found in
castor oil. The plant yielding Purgueira was
described by Adamson, more than a century
ago, under the name of Curea purgan. It
abounds in some portions of Africa and in the
Cape de Verde Islands.
Akazoia. This new alkaloid was found by
Dr. Frazer, of Edinburgh, in specimens of
the akazga plant brought from the west coast
of Africa, and which he supposed to bo a new
species of fitrychnos. Akazgia is a crystalline
alkaloid, closely resembling strychnia, but
differing from it by being precipitated by
alkaline bicarbonates. Travellers report that
the natives of West Africa use akazga as an
ordeal. A supposed Borcerer is compelled to
drink an infusion of tho bark of this plant,
and walk over small akazga sticks. If guilty,
he tries in vain to pass the sticks, and falls m
convulsions, w hen ho is beaten to death by
the Bavages; but if innocent, the kidneys wiil
act freely, and the poison is eliminated. Dr.
Frazer found certain twigs of the so-called
akazga of different structure, which did not
yield the new alkaloid, and it is probable
that those natives who have escaped from the
ordeal drank a decoction made from . this
variety.
New and Gigantic Plant. The London
Builder of March 6 states that within the
last few days living specimens have been
forwarded to England from Nicaragua of one
of the most cicantio plants of the ver(-.ili1ri
kingdom. It is closely allied to tho Arums
(or "Lords and Ladies ) of the hedges, and
unui mo present lime has wholly escaped the
uvuee oi waveumg ooianists. it pro.tuodH
but one leaf, nearly fourteen feet in lencth.
supported by a stalk ten feet long. The stein
of the flower is a foot in circumference, the
spathe or flower is two feet lorn.', uurnlish
blue in color, with a powerful carrion-like
odor. As this remarkable species of Aroidoio
is ciuite new to science, it has not vet re
ceived a name. A correspondent of the
Builder describes the Arum found on the
Campagna of liomo, which bears deeply ser
rated leaves about the size of the human
hand, but in other respects resembles the
Nicarnguan plant. It has a purple snathe
ohout eighteen inches in length, and the
nower has the same repulsive odor.

This is an entirely new heater. It is so constrnoted
aa to eooe eommend itself to aeneral faror, being a combi
nation of wroUKlit and oast Iron. It is very simple in it
oonstrnetion, and is perfectly air-tight i self -cleaning, bar
ing no pipea or drums to be taken out and cleaned. It is
ao arranged with upright flue, as to produoa a larger
amount of beat from the aaine weight of coal titan any lur
naoe now in as. Tha hygroinetrio condition of the air aa
produced by uij new arrangement of evaporation will at
ouoe demonstrate that it is the only Hot Air Furnace that
will produce a perfectly healthy atmosphere.
Thoas in want of a complete Heating Apparatus would
do well to oali and examine the t:oMn Ragle.
