n o,ii m the Niharn. An ois is not an imai?nse wild gar den. w!ier nurn-rvai ?r'cie9 of fruits aiu! il )rT crowd e.ch o'b-r in wild conruvoti, but it isniggxrd'y oaturecu' tivateri almost to the extreme by human iuduVry, which refuses apace to every fruit or iliwer which doea not aid to sustain life. An oasis is usutlly about a mile and a quarter in length and about five eightns of a mile in bread'.b. In nearly every case it occupies tbe bottom of sornw ravine, which shelters it In every direction. It is inclosed by a mud or atone wall about eight fet iu height aud about a foot Id thickness. At reg ular intervals about this wall are round stone towers ; these are sentry boxes on the flit roofs of which are stationed nightly guards to protect the place from pillage. The gardens of the oasia lie against this outer wa 1, and are divided into small enclosures, each of which is the property of one person. Next to ward the centre, are flsUla of corn, bar ley, and onions, divided Into parts aa in the gardens, which are watered and tended like our favorite fliwer beds ; in the center is a little rivulet, which runs from springs near one of the ex treme ends. The inhabitants of this oasis do not live each family in a separate dwelling, but In one large houM called a ksar. which is usually built of stone, giving it the appearance of a solid mass, per forated here and there with a small windows and diversified with jutting angle. The halls are narrow, dark. ill smelling, uneven passages winding about the building. The apartmenta are low-ceiled, filthy places, lighted by a einirl aperture In the wall. The who'e place reminds one more of a dog kennel than a human haoitaMon. In some of the ksars, about three or four hundred men, women, and children, a stckly, scrofulous generation, are hud dled toje hei In a building which would seem to a European hardly able to con tain more than a hundred. The only interesting thing about the whole oasts is the marabet or sepulchral chapei, which stands outside tha walls surmounted by a capula, the whole be ing built of stone or brick, executed by artisans bronght from Morocco for that express purpose. Occasionally the principal cupola is fl inked byfoursim nar ones, me interior presenting a court, surrounded by a gallery sup ported on Moorish arcades. In most cass the ostrich eg crowns the sum mu or me cnpaio, out occasionally a stone or metal ball may be found occu pying the exalted position. The inhab itants of the oasis chooss to reserve all the luxury and magnificence of their architecture to adorn the little temple around which they excavate their rest ing places. They are not like the habita tions of the living, subject to the rava ges of To, but are universally held ecred ; nrd the corqieror, covered with Mood, approaches here with rev ererce and prostrates himself in lowly worship. Life is so uncertain, when the arms of the enemy combine with elements cf nature to threaten its ex istence, that It is no wonder the inhabi tant of the oasis cares to lavish all his wealth, not on the dwelling which will probab'y shelter him but a day, but on the p'are which will shelter him forever from the storms of life. In the gardens near the outer wall of the oasis are grown the date palm, which fs the principal food all over the Sahara. The trunk of this palm Is usually nbout fifty or sixty feet in height, and is crowned by a tuTt of ra. diating leaves. The calyx has six di visions, and the fruit is a drupe, some what larger than the acorn ; it is a red color when ripe and is enclosed In a hard kerne!, from which it is easily separated. Is is pulpy, firm, esculent. and sweet, wi'h a slight astringency. X tie tree Is raised from shoots, which arrive at maturity in about thirty years. and continues bearing for about seven. ty more, producing yearly about fifteen or twenty clusters, which weigh, usual ly, about eighteen pounds each. T-1 , . r.ec any one wisnes to create a date garden, he summons the neighbor ing gardeners to his assistance ; and thus he accomplishes bis work with economy and despatch, for their ser vices cost him nothing, except the ob ligation to return the same when de manded. The sand ia first removed to a depth of several feet, in order that the roots miv reach water, beside a trench is dog around the tree at a regu lar distance, and into this, when ne cessary, water is poured. In order that, sinking through the soil. It may effect mlly reach the fibres which require it. This irrigation is chiefly committed to the women and children, bv those who Lave no slaves ; and the precious fluid Is carried in idsins of animals or baskets of balpo flouted to closely as to be waterproof, in most oasis canals are cut in every direction, communicating with the springs which sapply the oasis; and when restriction is necessary, each gardener pays so much per hour for the use of the water In his garden. Ia some oases each proprietor has the right to the springs for en hour or two, BL-uuuinit va ine tine aeetis or. nis es tate. The time Is measured by a rude chronometer htid by the officer who opens and shuts its conduit. The ttood Influence of flood Papers.

Very different in appearance and hab its from the larger species is tbe gos hawk or, aa be is ominously styled in northern .New England, the "bine hen hawk." Ot rather slender build, when foil-grown, a hawk of this sort caeasures from twenty to twenty four Inches in length. It is bluiih slate color above ; below, white, croseed with many zlg zag slate-colored lines. Theugh more numerous In the moun tains of tbe far West and In the British possessions, the goshawk is not uncom mon in our northernmost Stales in fall and winter, and occasiooly builds Its Deals in that region. It lores the woods and is ofteuer met in tbe shade of the dense pine and spruce woods than any other hawk. For strength and bravery, tbh hawk Is not surpassed by any other bird of prey. It feeds upon docks, pigeons hares, grouse and poultry. It is tbe type of a bunt ing-f aeon, flying a fow feet above tbe ground, and descending with a swift rush on tbe luckless prey detected by its sharp eyes. It is daring to rashness, and unlucky is the farmer whose poultry-yard becoses familiar ground to one of these hawks. Almost before the frightened fowls hare had time to sound the alarm, it has selected and seized its victim, and is away. One of these ialeens was seen some time ago rushing upon a flock of birds called grackles as they were crossing the Ohio river. The birds in their fright collected in a compact mass and the hawk dashed among tbem, seizing first one and then another, and killed five before tbe flock could escape to tbe woods on the further bank. AaOnd Bird that Likes Fishing. Away up on tbe moantaina. near Ta eoma, Washington, where the numer ous streams And their way through deep, dark canyon? down to the pulse beat of old ocean, is tbe natural sum mer borne of the water ousel, the strangest of all strange birds. You sel do 23 see mors tban one of tbem at a time. Ttey are of bark bine color, and are easily recgonlzed by a pecular quick, jerking motion, which they never seem to tire of. And as tbey flit from rock to rock they are continually bob bing up and down, performing such a polite little courtesy aa would cause you to smile to see It. Owing to Ibeli peculiar habits and the isolated spots tbey select to build their neets, do one but the most ardent sportsmen and naturalists succeed in finding them. Hence a water ousel's nest with two or three eggs in it baa a commercial yalue among nest collectors of $2-5. They always build their nests just back of some waterfall or under some overbaoging bank, where they have to go through or under the water to get to it. Another strange habit of this bird is tbe deliberate manner in which they ap pear to commit suicide. Tbey will start slowly, very slowly, to wade right down into the water until tbey disap pear from view, but if tbe water la clear and you have a sharp eye you can see tbe little dark forms clinging to the botton in search of their morning re past which consists of periwinkles. Twe Moods of an Emperor. When he Is in Berlin Emperor Will iam Is as democratic as one could wish. He drives, rides and walks about as freely as old Ilaroun Alraschid ever did, and be doesn't at all mind stopping now and again to chat with common folk. But when be retirs to Potsdam, where his private residence Is, he is quite a different person. At Potsdam be is ex clusive as a sacred turtle. The doors of bis palace yw, and the gates of his Fi re closed against everybody and he shuns that recognition which else where be Invites. It is bard, however, to keen the small boy out of what be ought not to be in. Three or four urchins made a practice of climbing the wall inclosing the im perial park and of playing at soldiers nnder tbe splendid . trees. As luck would have it, tbe Emperor and Em press rode one morning in th .t partlc ulrr part of the park and suddenly came upon tbe little ragamuffins. Instead of throwing away their broomsticks and skedaddling, the urchin wheeled into line, presented arms, and saluted the Imperial couple. William was simply delighted and be told the boys that be wonld remember them. So be did. Ascertaining who they were and thai they were children of poor people, be has sent them to a military school and will have tbem educated at his private cost. The Largest Leather Belt la the rTorld.

To ebow what maj be done ic tbe way of training the puma, or Rocky Mountain lion, usually deemed one of tbe moet intractable of animals, a cor responded writes an accouct of one be Das recent? seen at Uvingstoii, Mon tana. She is now three jears old arjd was raised from a cub by a gentleman who devoted eighteen months to train ing ber. He now baa ber under com plete control. Tbe beast not baring been ftd for twenty-four hours, be trailed pieces of meat ovei ber nose and moulb, which the puma never attempt ed to eat until tbe word was given, as to a dog. Occasional attempts were made but a single twist of the ear by ber trainer was sufficient to control ber. When meat was placed a few yards off, the puma fetched it by word of ci mmai d. and poi mitted tbe meat to be taken liom ber moutb by ber trainer, who fondled ber as he would a cat. A very fine dog, a cross between a pure setter and a pure Si Bernard, five years old, named "Bruce," ia on intimate and even af fectionate terms with tbe puma, who allowed bim to remove meat placed npon ber jawb and to eat it. In training tLe puma he has chit fly used tbe whip, which ahe feels only on the nose, ear and nnder the tail. He assured the writer that be has made bis own teeth meet through ber skin in dif ferent parts of ber bodr, without brr showing any signs of sensation. Her memorr is short, and three weeks' in termieslon of the performance uecessis tates much extra training and trouble. Sources of the Sile. Tbe sources of the Nile are In great lakes on high plateaus nnder tbe equa tor, 3,000 or 4.000 feet above the level of tbe sea. Tbe largest and highest of these b. Bins, Lake Victoria N'janza. 5 058 feet above tbe sea and larger than Lake Superior, gathers tbe waters from all tbe surrounding highlands. From tbe Unyamwfsi ba6in on the south flows tbe Shlmlyu, tbe most remote source of the Nile ; on tbe west the Kz-?ra, drain ing high mountain land ; on the east descend tbe waters of the plateaus from which rise tbe snowy peaks of Ken la and Kilimanjaro. Tbe waters issue from the north end of Lake Victoria N'yaLza as a powerful and rapid stream the true Nile flow-, down toward tbe northwest into Like Albert N'tbdz. which is 2.000 'ee' above the sea. Tne nee tbe river runs down into the plains of central Soudan, where it receives tbe waters of the vast net work of rivers collected by tbe Bhar-el-Arab and Bnar-el-Gazal and those of the eastern plateaus through the Sobat. After tbe junction of these rivers tbe river is known as the White Nile, and follows a northerly course through Nubia to Khartoum, where the Blue Nile brings to it tbe united waters of the Abyssinian plateau and its snowy mountains. Lower down tbe Black Nile pours into it the waters of north ern Abyssinia. From this point to the Mediterranean, a distance of fifteen hundred miles, tbe Nile does not recti e a single tributary of any importance. Oil of Roses. Tbe collection of this precious per fume is a pure'y mechanical operation, based upon tbe principle of capillary attraction ; and a careful person can make It who baa patience. The fras grant blossoms are gathered at perfec tion, only tbe leaves beiog used, and placed in an open-mouthed jar. A very fine, soft sponge, carefully cleaned and dried and then saturated with the finest olive oil, is fitted into another glass jar, which, being reversed, jnst slips within the jar containing the rose leaves. This leaves tbe sponge in the smaller jar. which is fixed upside down within is the large jar just above tbe rose leaves, whose volatile fragrance is at tracted by the oil in the spooge ; aa tbe rose leaves dry they can be replaced by fresh ones until the oil is perfumed to the desired degree, when a small quan tity can be fqueezed Into a small glass stoppered vial. If only tbe perfume is desired, wash tbe sponge in a small quantity of alco bal and keep it In a glass-stoppered bottle. During the extracting of the perfume tbe jars should be kept in the sunshine. Very fine solid fat spread on the inner surface of the smaller jar will attract tbe perfume, like the oil. and can be gathered in small jars with air j tops. It is with this sort of pomade that perfumes are usually made. X Dog's Way or Talking. Oae hot summer day I chanced to spy from my study wludow a huge dog dis porting himself with provoking coolness on mr lawn in the shade of an ever green. ItoBbing In hot baste to my study closet and snatching up a hearth brush, I stole softly along the front porch, where, concealed partly by clus tering vines of honeysuckle, I took aim and hurled it at tbe tresspasser's head. I had counted confidently on seeing him terrified by tbe projectile and taking bimseir off with a howl of pain and alarm. But judge of mr surprise to see the unsurprised brate take first a quiet and leasurly survey of the missile, then deliberately pick it up with his teeth and trot complacently off. with my brush. Meeting tbe same dog on the street later ia the day, I could not help think ing from his knowing look, though he carried a sober face, that be was in wardly laughing at me. And then it all at once flashed upon me what good stead this dog's philosophy might do superior beings, and what a world of vex ation we might save ourselves if we would but carry away and bury forever the weapons of detraction burled at us by the hidden bands of envy and hate.
