Brer since the death of his mother, Hani
tad lived with his father on their little
farm, helping to till the ground, carrying
the produce to market and making himeU
very useful. Marzi was well known and
much loved by the country people; for he
was kind and generous, and was always
ready to lend a helping hand to those in
need.
One time the father fell very ill, and,
after many days of great suffering, he died,
leaving his son without a friend in the
world. Although Marzi did not expect any
great wealth from his father, he was much
surprised to receive as his inheritance only
a bright new penny. He determined to
leave his native village and travel in other
lands. So, locking the door of his little
home, he put the key in his pocket along
with the penny, and set out afoot on his
journey. He had gone hut a short distance
when he met an old beggar man, who said:
"Sir, I am very poor and suffering from
hunger. Can you not help me?"
Always ready to do an act of kindness,
THE TOfHAPPY BOY
the boy drew out his penny and gave it to
the old man, saying: "If you will have this
you are welcome to it.
"When the man had taken the money, he
said: "For this gilt you shall receive great
reward. Tell me what you most wish and
it shall be granted to you."
Marzi was astonished to hear such words
from a beggar, and he answered quickly
without thinking: "My good old man, I
think I should most like, that whenever I
wished I could become a hare, a dove or a
fish."
"It shall he as you desire," said the old
man; and then be vanished Irom sight
"When he had been fiom home nearlya
year, Marzi csme one day to a large city, in
which there was a great noisrand confusion.
The men were running through the streets
shouting, women were crying and wringing
their hands, and even the little children
seemed troubled and grieved. When
Marzi inquired the cause of all this tumult,
he was told that the King of the city was
going out to make war against a powerful
enemy, and it was feared that he and all the
brave men whom he was taking with him
would be lost. Marzi asked and obtained
permission to go with the soldiers as drummer-boy,
and gaily marched away to war.
For manv days the battle raged fiercely,
and finaliy'tbe King and his loyal men be
gan steadily to lose ground. while the enemy
continued to gain, and must in time over
power them and take them prisoners. When
the King had called his men together he
said: "In the treasnre room of my palace
is a magic ring, given to me by an old
magician, and which when placed on my
finger renders me invisible. If I had this
ring now, I could mingle with the troops of
the enemy, learn their plans, and thus save
our army. To the one who is willing to go
to the palace and will bring me the ring I
will command the treasure master to give
great reward."
The men hesitated to perform this desire
of the King, for to return to the city the
lines o tbe enemy must be passed through,
and no one wished thus to endanger his life.
Finally, the drummer boy advanced to the
King and said. "Your Majesty, I will in a
short time bring your ring to you."
2ow the oromise of the old beggar
proved true; for when Marzi wished to be
come a hare he was changed at once, and
darted away like the wind. When he came
to the wide river over which tbe soldiers
had been carried in boats he became a fish
and swam rapidly to the other side. As
soon as he reached the shore he was again
changed into a white dove, and flew directly
to the palace. There he lighted on the
shonlderorthe treasure master, who admit
ted the beautiful bird and ted it with crumbs
of bread and cake. When Marzi had as
sumed his natural form he told tbe treasure
master his errand, and received the ring,
with these words: "Be carelul and allow
no one to take the ring from you, or you
may lose your reward."
Marzi then changed himself into a dove
and said: ""Now treasure master, pluck
three feathers rom one of my wings."
When he had done so, the dove became a
fish and said: "Take eight scales from my
back."
Tnis being done the fish became a hare
and said: "Cat off the tip of my right
ear.
The treasure master took the scissors and
did as the hare commanded. Marzi then
toot the ring and was soon on his way back.
He crossed tl.e river in safety and was flying
tiward the camp when a great wind arose,
blowing so violently that the poor dove was
obliged to descend and become a hare in
order "to continue his journey. But a
cowardly snlriipr who had seen the drum
mer-boy set out in the lorm of a hare, now
watched for his return, and as soon as be
spied him leaping through the grass, be
sprang upon him, beating him until he
thought him dead, and then taking the ring
he cirriea it to the King, sayinc:
"Hope Jgaio, most noble ruler; for I
bring to you tne magic ring."
The King was greatly plcasedtnd warmly
praised the soldier lor his bravery, and
promised double the reward first offered.
In a short time the enemy was put to flight,
conquered by means of tlie magic ring.
Now the King and his men returned to tbe
as victors. There were loud rejoicings,
city ringing of bells, waving of banners, and
sounding of trumpets. In the grand pro
cession, which passed through the streets,
tbe little drummer-boy was not to be seen;
but tbe wicked soldier rode beside the King
on a noble white steed, and was proclaimed
the deliverer of thearmy. When, however:
they reached the palace and the reward was
dmanoed of him, the treasure master said:
"This is not he to whom I gave the ring."
The Kinc was much astonished, and,
turning to the soldier, he said: "Did you
not return to tbe palace for the ring and
-' bring it to me?"
The soldier declared that he and no other
bid saved the army. But the treasure mus
ter said:
"Wait until to-morrow, and then if the
true deserrer of tbe reward does not sppsar,
I shall pay it to this one."
The King agreed to this plan, and tbe
m ' """ ' " aaMatar !..
soldier, thinking he had killed the hare,
was content to wait In the meantime the
poor wounded hare lay where he had been
struck down, unable to rise, and enduring
great pain. Suddenly the old beggar cn
appeared and, bending over the suffering
animal, said: "Hare, arise and hasten to
the King, or you will lose your reward.
And before Marzi, his wounds being
healed, could thsnk his -riend, the old man
had vanished. The boy hurried witn an
speed to the palace, where he arrived just as
the reward was about to he given tothe
soldier. Marzi told his story to the King,
who said: "If you can prove that you de
serve the reward you shall receive it;but if
not, the reward shall be given to this man
and you shun be hanged on the gallows in
the court yard."
Marzi then became the dove and told the
treasure master to bring the three feathers
which be had taken from his wing. When
the leathers had been brought, everyone
could see that they belonged to the dove.
Then the fish appeared and called for the
scales, which fitted exactly. But when the
tip of the hare's ear was produced, there
was no longer any doubt that Marzi had
told the truth. The king was very angry
with the false soldier, and ordered him to
MEETS A BEGGAR.
be hanged on the gallows. The soldier was
so frightened at the thought of such a death
that he fell on his knees and besought
mercy from the King. His life was finally
granted to him on condition that be wonld
at once leave the city, and never be seen
there again.
To the drummer boy, on account of the
wrongs he had suffered, double honors were
paid, and the King wished him to remain in
his kingdom. But when Marzi had received
his reward, he returned to his native village
and his old home, where he was welcomed
with great joy by the people, who gladly
received him among them; and they never
tired ol hearing how, by means of bis new
penny, he saved thearmy of the King,

BOSTON AT CARDS.
They Propone Iioftly Intellectual Tnrubllnsj
at the Game of Scat
Boston Courier.
The coming game of cards in Boston
seems to be the German game scat; which is
by no means new, but which tor some unac
countable reason seems to be having a re
vival, or rather to be in the way of being
taken up, especially among the young men.
As there is every prospect that dnring the
coming winter there will be an increase of
the interest, it behooves those who desire to
keep up with the times in this particular to
devote their leisure this summer to a con
sideration of the intricacies of this game.
It is called a game, and so is chess; al
though either might claim rank with the
abstruse science; and almost rival that
monster of iniquitous unlearnable involu
tions, the Japanese go-bang. The funda
mental idea ot the inventors of scat has
been to complicate and then again to com
plicate, and yet once more to complicate.
To begin with, the player is met on the
very threshhold by a variable and elnsive
creature called a co-efficient, a term so
strongly suggestive of Sophomore year and
examinations that one should be at once
warned to desist. II, however,he has the hard
ihood to keen on hefinds "froggies," "solos,"
"grands," "nelloes," and a dozen other
things bristling about him like the points
of a chevel-de-frise. He is told to multiply
his coefficient by various numbers, and to
"bid" lor hands which he does not want, or
to receive bids which are not to be paid to
him if he accepts them. He is forced to do
sums in addition to an extent which reduces
his brain to a pulp, while all the time he is
expected to imagine that he has five suits ot
cards in his hand instead ol four, that all
the knaves are always trumps, and that the
tens rank next to the aces.
A DYHAMO DQTICULTY
That Is lo be Remedied na a Result cf Re
cent Inveetlcntlona.
Recent investigations, made with a view
to overcome the difficulties caused by vibra
tion and noise from dynamos and engines,
have led to giving special stress to an in
crease or tbe mass of machinery to be isolated
and its carriage by an elastic body, such as
rubber, says a writer to the Boston Adver
tiser. In accomplishing this, the plan is
to dig out a large trench, and at the bottom
to place planking surmounted by a covering
of sheet-iron, on which are distributed a
number of rubber cylinders, constituting it
the same time an elastic and electric insula
tion. On the top of these cylinders there is
placed a second plate of sheet-iron riveted to
a tramework, so as to give stiffness to the
whole. On this is built a foundation in the
usual way, provision being made for the
loundation-bolt, and sufficient space being
left to suitably admit of periodically clean
ing ihe trough of Winy extraneous matter
without disturbing the elastic support.
Property and Electric Lights.
The effect which the electric light has pro
duced in the rental of buildings, in the cen
tral portions of large cities is somewhat re
markable. A great many of the handsomest
restaurants in Chicago are now located in
basements. Before electric lights were in
troduced the basements could not be used
for this purpose to any great extent, for tbe
simple reason that no matter how many gas
jets were used, the rooms were all more or
less dingy. They could never be made at
tractive, .and consequently it was not found
to be a good investment to spend large sums
ot money in fitting them up. Within the
last year or two, within which rents have
enormouslv increased, there seems to have
been a general realization of tht fact that
by the aid of electric lights these basements
could be made in every way suitable loca
tions for many kinds or business. A large
amount of valuable renting property has
thus been brought Into the market which
formerly was used for little leas than pur
poses ei storage.
THE
THE HEALING POWER.
Lesson in the Miracle Performed by
tbe SaYior at Decapolis.
THE MENTALLY DEAF AND DUMB
Compared With the Sufferer, for Whom
' the Multitude Pleaded.
TEE SEAL BEWAED OP THE HELPER
rwzrrTxxroBTnx Bisrj.Tcn.1
At Decapolis, on the other side of Jordan,
they brought to Christ a deaf and dumb
man that he might heal him. Let us read
the story over and get what truth and help
we can out of it. "They bring unto him
one that was deaf and had an impediment in
his speech and they beseech him to put his
hands upon him."
What a parable snch a man as this is, of
the relation between utterance and knowl
edge. The ear is the organ of knowledge,
and the lips of speech. Whoever has some
thing the matter with his hearing is pretty
sure to have something the matter with his
tongne. The two go together. The deaf
have almost of necessity some impediment
in their speech. And this is just as true in
tellectually as it is physically. We must
listen in order to talk. We must learn be
fore we can teach. It is only out of disci
ples that apostles can be made. First hear
eis, then intelligent speakers. There are a
great many people who have no need of a
physician, and yet speak with a stammer
and have an impediment in their
speech an intellectual impedimentbe
cause they are deaf mentally deaf. They
will not hear. In this "age of words," as
our generation has recently been called, this
parable is worth attending to. Some of the
prevalent stammering and mistaken speech
about the religion of Christ we may set down
to the account of deafness. These speakers
have not been listeners. They have not
heard Christ. That is what is the matter
with them.
"WHERE XHX BEJIEDY LIES.
The best thing which any man can do
whose tongue stammers when it touches the
syllables of the Christian creed, is to come
where this deaf and dumb man came to
Christ. They bring this afflicted man to
the Healer, and pray for him who cannot
well pray for himself or at any rate does
not pray for himself that He may lay
His helping hand uoon him. They bring
the man and Christ together. What did
Christ do? "He took him aside from the
multitude, and put his fingers into his ears,
and he spit and touched his toneue."
It is no use talking the English language
to a deaf and dumb man, nor even the Syriac
language if that is the speech of the
country. At least in those days, which
were centuries before lip-reading was
thought of, there was no use. Ordinary
speech would not do with him. Whoever
would talk to this deaf man must make
signs, That is wnat (Jurist aia. ue put
His finger into the deaf man's ears. That
was a plain enough sentence. And He
touched the stammering tongue with His
moistened finger. Nobody could miss know
ing what that meant Then they stood
"apart from the multitude," the patient and
tbe Physician, the two together; the deaf
and dnmb man looking at Chiist, and Chrit
looking at him. That was the beginning of
it. The first essential for this man it he
wanted to he cured, was to understand that
Christ was looking at that moment straight
at him, and at nobody else. His bark was
against the whole world, and his face was
toward Christ's face; and he said to himself:
"Now the Healer is thinking about ree, and
is going to help me." And that thought
helped him.
EfDITIDTTAI. BECOONITION.
That is a though; to help anybody. Be
ligion, a ter all, consists mainly in standing
thus face to face with God, knowing that
God beholds and loves not only "us" but
"me," and each one for our own self behold
ing, serving and loving Uod. When a man
begins to say to himself Christ came into
this world tor my sake; to set me an ex
ample which I "am to follow in my life to
day; He lived to redeem me from death and
to save me from my sins; He died upon the
cross: above there in heaven or. no. here.
rather, close by my side He loves and helps
me. When a man begins to speak with
himself after that fashion, making the great
troths personal, and realizing that they are
true, for him, and then in his turn cousecrat
tinir his life more closely to Him whom he
knows as his Savior and his Lord, then that
man discovers what Christ's religion is.
I take this dumb and deaf man, looking
to Christ for help and understanding. That
Christ cares ior and loves him. I take him
as the type of the beginning ot personal re
ligion. "And looking up .to heaven, He
sighed." That is tbe next thing we are told.
Looting up into that blessed home, where
sorrow and crying, and de ect and pain are
all banished, and then down upon this grief
stained earth; lookine up above where tbe
will of God is perfectly understood and per
fectly and lovingly done, and then down
upon this disobedient earth, peopled with
the spiritually deaf and dumb, none of us
hearing as we might nor speaking as we
might, He sighed
IHE 'WOED OF HEALIXO.
"And saith unto him, Ephphatha, that
is, be opened." It is a strange word. Even
in the Greek it had to be translated. It be
longs to the language in which the people
of our Lord's land and day uttered their
thoughts a language long passed out of the
using of the greater nations of tbe earth.
"Ephphatha, that is, be opened." So near
we get to that scene of healing in Decapolis
that we can hear the very sound of the Mas
ter's voice. These were the very syllables
He uttered. Alter that the word had such a
beauty of sound and such a richness of mean
ing that there was no transfering it out of
that language into another. Something of
Christ's voice, something of the associations
of that hour dune to it afterward always.
When St. Peter told this story of healing
for St. Mark to write it down, he remem
bered just how that word sounded. "Eph
phatbal" It called back the whole scene.
So it stands here even in our English Bible.
'And straightway bis ears were openea.
and the string ot his tongue was loosed and
be spake plain." And that is all that we
are told about him. The veil of silence
(alls between him and us. We would like
to know more about so many Bible peoplel
About Hhe Bethlehem shepherds who heard
the angels sing in the Ciiristmas sky, and
about the little daughter of Jairns who
came back to life again, and about Lazarus.
How far was the imagination of Brownine
true in that fine "Epistle of Karshish"
which he wrote, in wjiich the Arab physi
cian interviews that strange inhabitant of
Bethany? And that other and even finer
poem, ,SA Death in the Desert," about the
last hours of St John, how far was that
true, we wonder. And this deaf and dumb
man, what did hef afterward do with the
hearing and the speech which Christ had
given him? But that we know not.
EFFECT OJT THE PEOPLE.
Whatever is told more and that is not
much is about the people. Around the
patient crowded" the people. Every deed
worth doing or word worth saying divides
the bystanders at once into classes, accord
ing to their appreciation. The day of
judgment is all the time arriving, and we
are continually being separated, some on
the right hand, and others on the left So
here, to some, the healing of the deaf and
dumb man was simply an astonishing piece
of news, which they prooeeded hecceiorth
to spread among their neighbors, glad to
have something quite new to talk about,
not giving it any earnest thought
at all, and altogether disregarding
Christ's desire that they should keep
It to themselves. No doubt He saw
that the best thing they could do for their
owe profit to montion no other considera
tionwas to keep silence and do more think
ing than talking. To these people the mir
acle appeared only upon its sensational side.
And we eaa readily imagine that when
PITTSBURG DISPATCH,
the next surprising thing happened, and
they had another theme for wonderinm
gossip, they quite forgot this. Tbe deaf
and dumb man and Christ who had healed
him went out of their minds together. And
so these people upon whom the miracle
Beemed to produce the greatest effect were
really the most affected by it There were
others who were more genuinely touched.
We are told ot these that they glorified the
Healer. "He hath done all things well,
thev said. "He maketh both the deaf to
hear and the dumb to speak." That is the
reward of the helper a part of his reward.
BEWABD OT THE HELPER.
That is the least part of the reward of the
real helper. He values it, indeed, It is
precious to him to have the approbation ot
those about him, to hear the pleasant words
of their appreciative speeeh, to have one
and another say "this or that which you
did helped me" no man may regard that
without gratitude. Everybody prizes such
friendly expression, and everybody is up-
llr.-J ' j L.l J k It nnf-ht to be.
uitou snu ucifJvu ii .i v -
With these bystanders amazement passed
into admiration. But I called that the
least part of the reward of the helper.
There were others who gave the helDer his
best reward. St Matthew tells us that
some who stood there "glorified the God or
Israel." That was what Christ wanted.
Tbe helper is rewarded when he helps.
And he knows that he helps most when he
stirs in the hearts of others not the sense
of mere passing admiration, not even the
feeling of personal affection, but the act of
lookine up. past him, to God. To glorify
God is the aim of the genuine helper.
"Not unto us, but unto Thy name be the
praise," is the thought of his heart "And
they glorified the God of Israel." Noth
ing else in that Decapolis visit gladdened
the heart of Christ like that
A COMPANY OP TJNBKLIEYEBS.
"The God of Israeli" The expression is
worth noticing. These people of Decapolis
were pagans. Thev had gods, as they
thought, of their own. They were away
outside the boundaries of the true religion.
They were the worst kind of heretics, of un
believers, of infidels. Christ stood among
a company of infidels that day. And what
did he do? In these days of questioning
and doubting and denying, when we find
ourselves sometimes in unbelieving com
pany, we may well study this. What did
the Master do?
Did He make an elaborate argument
with premises major and minor and an ir
resistible conclusion, and so convinoe their
minds? Did He make a declaration, as
irom heaven, ot the truth about God and of
the falsehood of their notions about God,
and so try the persuasion of authority?
Did He ridicule the idols oi uecapoim
Did He call down fire from heaven upon
this company of idolaters? There are so
many things which He might have donel so
many things which we, if we had stood in
His place, would have been glad to dol
What did He?
He preached no sermon. He said no word
at all about religion. He simply helped
those people in their need, and did it so
simply, so kindly, and so wonderfully that
they loved Him on the spot And love and
faith go together. You cannot separate
tbem. So they believed in Him, and be
lieving in Him they believed in the religion
which he stood for. That was how those
people of Decapolis found the light
THE MEANS, ADOPTED.
No sermon could have effected that They
would have turned away, as the people of
Athens did after the preaching of St Paul,
saying, -'We will hear thee again of this
matter," and that would have been the end
of it But the deed of love and helpfulness
won their hearts.
"And they glorified the God of Israel.'
Here is the conquest toward which the
energies and prayers of the best souls in
the world to-day can boast to bring the un
believing into the knowledge of Christ as
Christ brought these heathen of Decapolis.
How shall we do it?
In the old days men tried the sword;
against false thinking set the inquisitor
and the rack and the stake; tried violence,
and that failed and will always fail. In
these days the victory of truth over untruth
is sometimes attempted by means of dis
putation, by logic, by battles oj words.
There may be somehelp in that for some
people, but not much help for many.
The onlv invincible weapon is the one by
which Christ conqnered on the field of
Decapolis the sword of love. It is only by
Christian kindliness, and help'ulness and
love that Christian truth can ever be com
mended to tbe minds of men. We must
begin by doing all the good we can. The
troth will follow after. He who helps,
preaches the soundest doctrine and will
win the most converts. The best argument
for the Christian creed is the Christian
character. The doctrine is commended by
the deed. Geobob Hodges.

A New Paint OH.
An important discovery is reported from
California in the shape of a new paint oil,
which is itated.to be superior to linseed oil
and also to be much cheaper. It has the
further advantage that on surfaces which
are exposed to tbe weather it makes the
paint wear more than twice as long as lin
seed oil. It is also claimed that "neither
the heat and dryness of summer, nor the
cold and wet of winter, will cause the paint
to scale off or 'chalk.' It preserves its
elasticity and gloss better and longer than
linseed oil and never blisters in the sun."
The oleice used in the manufacture of this
new paint oil is extracted from fish oils.

the Far and Near, up at Irvington; the
Duchess Conntv, the Queens County and
the Westchester. A little further away
come the Genesee Valley and Buffalo
County clubs.
Boston has the Myopia, sportively so
named for her spectacular population and
the Brookline. Philadelphia weirs by the
Badnor.of which that good sportsman, A. J.
Cassatt, is president, and the Bose Tree, with
Biddies and Wilmers a plenty. Out
in Pennsylvania the Lima is but
one of many. Baltimore has the Elk
ridge and tbe Maryland. At Washington
the Dunbane hounds have set music in the
air all winter and even gone over the Po
tomac to teach Virginia rough-riders to hunt
the fox in style. For almost all of them are
hunt-clubs have hounds an M. F. H.
huntsmen whinners in and other truly
British appendages. The members talk of
good going, finding, killing, drawing covert,
drawing blank, chuks faults, being in at the
death, and so on quite as though born in
Leicester in Melton-Mowbrey. There 'is
some hunting in the spring. Fall though is
the real season. The dogs, whether hounds
or beagles, are imported or bred Irom such
stock. Hunters for the most part come from
Kentucky or Virginia, and if not thorough
bred show a good deal ol blood. Fox-hunting,
though, is by no means the only diver
sion. WESTCHESTER IS HEW.
Bowling, cricket, tennis, polo.divide hon
ors with it more than fairly. Some clubs
the Westchester, ior instance have no
hounds as yet, though doubtless a p.irk will
soon be added to its other attractions. It
has something over 400 members and one of
the finest polo gronndiin the country. The
clubhouse is a stone's throw from Pel
ham B.y, so is accessible by yacht as well
as by carriage. The grounds are not fin
ished yet Many new houses are going up
for the members, tor much the larger half of
them are resident A few owners live there
the year round. The clubhouse itself is
long, low and rambling, built of brick and
stone and wonderfully picturesque in its
green setting. It has handsome parlors, a
big dining room, library, billiard rooms, in
fact everything you may look for at a well
appointed clubhouse. Besides there are
suites of rooms lor non-resident members.
Albeit there are no hounds, the stable is a
mighty important feature. It stands at the
edge of the polo ground, is long and low and
gray, and altogether a mighty comfortable
place for the small steeds, as well as lor
horses of ordinary size and extraordinary
merit For there are riders of renown on
the club's roster men and women a plenty
whe know and love a good horse and are
willing to pay rouudly ior him.
A typical hunt club is the Meadow Brook.
It is the oldest of them all. In 1877 a lot of
hard-riding rich men brought over a pack
of barriers and established tbem in kennels
near Hempstead, L. 1. The late William
B. Travers was its first President and A,
Belmont Pnrdy, master of hounds. There
were 40 members in all, who soon got them
selves a clubhonse and club colors, and the
reputation of being excellent good fellows.
The pack was ten couple of fairish hounds
and the drag was laid oyer lines ot light
lenoes.
THE MEADOW BBOOK TOiDAY.
Things are different nowadays. Colonel
William Jay, who holds the seat left vacant
by the death of Mr.Travers, may reasonably
be proud or his sporting palatinate. Its lo
cation is singularly fortunate, within an
hour of New Xork Ulty, yet wno ana ioyeiy
enough to aronse all the hall-savage hunt
ing instinct It is an ideal country to ride
over, when not too wet By consequence
everybody does ride.cot merely in the hunt,
but at all times and for all reasons. The
members spend tbe autumn and make merry
with dinners and dances, lawn meets, hunt
breakfasts, and so on, with an occasional
ball at the clubhouse by way of variety.
It is a double wooden building, quaintly
picturesque. There is an archway betwixt
the two halves, under which carriages drive
to deposit euests. Inside there are the
usual apartments and a big ballroom, used
also for hunt dinners and as a place to tell or
hear something new. The pack has grown
to 20 couple, all bred from imported stock.
The present master of hounds, Thomas
Hitchcock, Jr., is one of the most ardent
sportsmen in tbe club possibly in the
United States. That is saying a good deal,
siuce the club includes such notable person
ages as Theodore and Elliot Boosevelt, the
Bntherfords, Woodbury Kane, F. B. Apple
ton, James Gordon Bennett, the Huvemey
ers, Pierre Lor i Hard, Jr., Boyal Phelps
Carroll, Oliver Belmont, Stanley Mortimer,
Edwin D. Morgan, tbe Potters, A. Belmont,
Bobert W. Stuart. William B. Travers,
James M. Waterbury, George Work, Cen
ter Hitchcock Eagerton and Dudley Win
throp, P. F. Collier and plenty more. Good
iellows all and several excellently mounted
and riding without flinching or craning at
tbe slifJest fence or wall. The stable, is of
course, filled with the choicest horseflesh.
OTHEB LEADING CLUBS.
The Queens County Hunt is an association
of gentlefolk who follow the private pack of
Mr. Frank Gray Griswold. The Bichmond
County, upon Staten Island, is a new elub
that has as yet not got to the hunting stage.
Tbe Bockaway Hunt, which divides honors
with the Meadow Brook, has somewhat the
same habitat tbe plains of Long Island.
It is especially fortunate la Its M. F. H.,
Bene La Montague, Esq. He ii ably
1890.
seconded by Foxhall Keene confessedly
the prince oi cross-country riders. Nearly
always there is a 'good field from which the
ladies, God bless 'em, are never conspicuous
bv absence. Miss Metcalf, Miss Emmett,
Miss Keene and plenty more, sit as firm,
ride as straight as the best and are rarely
absent from the covert-side and often in ac
the death. , . ,
While the Pelham County Club's harries
were in commission they had even more
feminine followers. Mesdames Potter,
Bull, Harriman, Iselin, Miss Carey, Miss
Cooley are habitues, and keep abreast of
husbands and lovers and brothers no matter
what the pace. In point of pieturessjueness
the Essex County Hunting Club is behind
none. It has some great names in its his
tory. No less a person than General George
B. McCIellan was once Its President The
clubhouse is a thing of accretions an odd,
rambling, roomy affair that has grown
around an old stone farmhouse. The pack
is but ten couples strong a small allowance
of dogs to near 200 members. As not a quar
ter ol tbem hunt, though the disproportion
is more apparent than real. Most of the
members are resident. Henry W. Page is
President; John A. Stewart, Jr., Master of
Hounds. Great things are promised in the
near future, new horses, hounds, kennels,
and so on. Besides there are a toboggan
slide, tennis and polo grounds, as well as a
crack, nolo team under Captain Powers
Farr.
CHASE THE BEAD FOX.
Happiest ot huntsmen are they who follow
the Genessee Valley hounds. They ride over
a good grass country after the real foxes.
That is after October. Up to that time the
drag prevails. Wadsworth's Homo Farm is
headquarters for it, a Wadsworth master of
hounds and the leading spirit of the hunt
Among those who ride in it are Messrs.
Howland. Carey.Potter.Martindale, Buckly,
Watson, Colt, Drayton and Miss Fitzhugh.
Boston's crack hunt club, the Myopia, is
nearly equal with the Meadow Brook.
Master ot Fox Hounds Seabury has both
drag-beagles and fox hounds who can upon
occasion rout out a real ox. Wennam
Swamn knows well the soft pad of their feet
Vineyard Hill echoes their music on a soit
autumn morning. The cream of Boston
blood goes streaming alter them Appleton,
Abbott, Dodge, Merrill, Peabody, Shaw,
Sargeant, Agassiz, Wright are but typical
names. What need to be more specific?
The Country Club is but the outward and
visible sign of the growth among us of that
love for iree, fresh air and healthful pas
times that is so hopeful a feature of our
national life. They are costly luxuries to
be sure, but bring large dividends of
strength and wholesome pleasure. May
they grow and increase until the morbid
mind is banished, the weakling taught that
it is his duty to be strong. Though as yet
there is somewhat of crudeness in their
methods, o affectation of English ways and
aping of English speech, they cannot help
but influence social life for good. Our great
exemplar Washington took the trouble to
set down in his diary that he "went a hunt
ing with Jackey Curtis and catched a fox."
It is unlikely that any lollower of the drags
will ever have Washington's opportunity
any more than his ability but lor what
fate does bring he will be all tbe better pre
pared i: he has the eye and hand and bal
ance of the trained cross-country rider.

THET WEAB BIO HATS.
Costumes of a Peculiar People of the Indo
Chinese Peninsula.
St. Louis Globe-Democrat. 3
In Annam, an empire occupying the east
ern portion of the Indo-Chinese peninsula,
with a population of 15,000,000, men and
women wear their hair in the same way and
dress almost alike. Like the man the
woman wears a turban, a long tunic, wide,
loose tmusers and a bright sath, the ends
falling below the knees. The physiognomy
is almost the same, as the men are beardless
and have their hair done up like the women.
The only clew to distinguish them is the
ear-rings and finger-rings, worn by women
only. The ear-rings are like double sblrt
studs, and among' the lower orders are of
colored glass. The wives and daughters of
Mandarins alone are allowed -to wear gold
jewelry. The rings are of spiral wire, fit
ting tight and standing out to some height
Some women of the upper class wear also
necklsces of strings of gold or silver beads.
The hat of the women is monumental. It
is like a large barrel cover, three-quarters
of a yard in diameter. Six or seven silk
cords as thick as a quill are fastened on
each side, and when worn fall down below
tbe waist Where the ends are fastened to
the hat on each side is a huge black or
brown silk tassel. Some of these bats are
artistically made of carefully selected palm
leaves and lined with neatly plaited flae
leaves.. These are expensive, especially
when thev have chiseled silver clasps at the
tassels. Many women fasten a little round
mirror in the hat before which they arrange
their turban when they go to town. The
hat is the article most prized by the stylish
ladies, and often costs 510 or $15.

The sick, like the poor, we have always
with us, and if we had no other reminder of
onrduty to the ailing, the common in
stincts of our humanity indicate that it is
not selfish in us to be unmindful.of these
even if they are not of our own household.
Some suggestions for the preparation of
food which may be used in the sick-room, is
therefore important It is no easy matter
to feed tbe sick, as those who have bad any
experience may know. In some Instances
it is with great difficulty that the patient is
induced to take food at all; in other in
stances, the sick person may wish for food
which is forbidden. It is thus apparent
that the nurse is called upon to exercise pe
culiar traits. She must be gentle, forbear
ing, fertile in resources and persuadinjr.
Sometimes a choice bit of food being offered
the sick person his appetite is encouraged
by the surprise, whereas if the patient were
consulted beforehand bis appetite as gone
beiore the food is ready.
Tbe quality of the food to be used should
be of the very best At no other time is this
consideration of more importance. Food
should not be allowed to stand in, the sick
room, either waiting to be served or after it
has been partly served. All remains oi it
should be removed when not wanted. No
dish or glass should be used a second time
withont having been cleansed of all vestiges
of its former contents. A first consideration
in serving the sick is thorough neatness. It
matters little of what quality the napery or
ware may be, but it does matter much that
they should be without spot or blemish. It
is scarcely necessary to add that the sani
tary condition of the room, the appearance
of the nurse, and the manner of serving have
much to do with tempting the appetite of
the sick one. There should be everything
in the appearance of the surroundings to in
duce, and nothing to repulse him.
The pernicious habit of tasting, in the
presence of the patient, food intended for
his use, should be avoided. .If any article
of food is prescribed by the doctor to be
used either hot or cold, it should be so of
fered. The temperature of the food may
be of much importance, and the doctor, of
course, in this matter is tbe best judge. It
should be a matter of conscience that all
cooking utensils used for the sick should he
of the best material and absolutely clean.
Here are some recipes for the sick room:
