CROSSING THE DESERT.
ONE might imagine that the arid Bahara
had been the bed of some groat sea,
and that wearying of Its burden of waters
had refused to hold them, and been doomed
for its rebellion never more to know the
blending of its cooling and life-prosorving
presence. The ancients imagined that the
desert was formed by wind spreading sand
over the cultivated soil, and that the oases
were spots of greater elevation and thus
escaped, as the knolls are swept bare of
snow which the drifting storm deposits in
the low places. But instead of being higher
than the surrounding surface, the oases are
depressions, and are of such a geological
formation that the water from some hidden
spring is retained, aud a verdure nourished
which has won for them from the desert
travelers the name of Islands of the Blessed.
Were it not for these resting-places it
would be impossible to traverse the dosert
evon with the aid of an animal so wonder
fully adapted to endure the peculiar
hardships, us is the camel. Supplied by
nature with wonderful store-places for
food and drink, it can subsist for a long
time with but very slight nourishment. Tho
hump which we in our childhood days
imagined was especially provided to afford
a scat for the rider, is a reservoir of fat
from which the camel draws nourishment,
so that sometimes when the animal comes
in from a long journey, the hump is greatly
diminished. Tho countries adjoining the
desert are almost ns effectually separated as
if a sea rolled between, and were it not
forthis "Ship of tho Desert," as the poetical
Arabs call it, tho separation would Ims
greater. The desert is tho camel's home,
he can eat tho scanty herbage that springs
up hero mid there, and which no other
creature wonld eloign to touch. His foot
is so adapted to tho sandy ground that he
can travel without difficulty where a horse
would fall exhausted on tho yielding soil,
beforo half his days journey was accom
plished. But stranger still is tho wonder
ful provision which enables theso patient
creatures to toil beneath tho burning sun
for days without drinking. They have
been used in explorations in New Mexico
and California, and the commander of one
expedition testifies that the camels have
carried water for tho mules used by the
men sometimes for more than a week with
out tasting it themselves.
The general ignorance concerning tho
whole continent of Africa, and especially
the desert portion of it, has afforded a Btrong
temptation to such as have penetrated into
its secrets to exaggerate them, and as we
are becoming better informed, some of the
traditions of the past are losing their tenor.
Desert journeys are certainly not luxurious
ly comfortable, but they aro probably at
tended with no severer suffering than has
been experienced in mountain climbing.
But men are less inclined to defy obstacles
under a scorching sun whose enervating
rays, reflected from tho burning saud, ac
quire terrible power, than amid a cold and
bracing atmosphere.
Monsieur Poucbet graphically describes
his approach to one of tho deserts of upper
Egypt:
"Tho eye only sees an unbroken sheet of
of burning saud. And yet upon its borders
I found, having tho heat of tho sun, and
novor refreshed by a single drop of rain,
numerous tufts of an asclcpiad, the large,
moist, velvety leaves of which glistened
with freshness. It was an inexplicable
problem. But this last effort of life soon
disappears, and wo see before us only an
ocean of sand and a horizon of death. Not
aery, not a murmur is heard, and soarco
oven a loitering vulture devours the last
fragments of some camel which has fallen
on the sand, and tho bleached skeleton of
which will soon be added to so many others
now marking out the desert routes. Not
a cloud tarnishes the azure of tho sky, not
a breath refreshes the air; a sun, the ardor
of which nothing moderates, pours down
its sparkling light and fiery rays, burning
even through one's clothes. The motion
less aud heated atmosphere tortures the
face with its fiery breath, and even the
sand attains an extreme heat. My ther
mometers being broken, I tried to ascertain
the temperature by plunging my hands into
the superficial layers, but at tho end of a
few seconds a stinging pain compelled me
to withdraw them. The soil also, by re
flecting the solar rays from tho sparkling
fragments of mica and quartz, sometimes
' becomes insupportably dazzling to the eye.
" Instead of tho rolling waves and the
cool breezes of the sea, this funeral region
only gives out burning gusts and scorching
blasts which seem to issue from the gates of
hell; theso are the timoom. or poison wind,
as the word signifies in Arabic. Tho camel
driver knows this formidable enomy, and as
soon as ho sees it looming in the horizon,
he raises his hands to heaven and implores
Allah; the camels themselves seem terrified
at its approach. A veil of reddish black
invades tho gleaming sky, and very soon
a terrible and burning wind rises, - bearing
clouds of lino impalpable sand, which' se
verely irritates the eyes, and makes its way
into the respiratory organs. The camels
squat down and refuse to move, aud tho
travelers have no chance of safety, except
by making a rampart of the bodies Of their
beasts, and ooveiing their heads so as to
protect themselves against this scourge."
It is said that entire caravans have some
times perishod in theso sand-storms, and it
was one of them that buried the army of
Cambyses when it was traversing tho des
ert. Tho oases vary in size from such ns are
just large enough to afford a baiting place
for a small caravan, to those which are re
ally kingdoms. Of the latter, Fezzan is
ono of the largest and most noted. Its pop
ulation is variously estimated at from
75,000 to 150,000. Tho inhabitants are a
mixed raoo, speaking a language corrupted
from the Arabic Far behind surrounding
nations in civilization, they devote them
selves to raising and manufacturing the
most indispensable nocossaries of life. Car
avans from the interior of Africa to the
coast make her some exchange of mer
chandise. Their chief traffic has bcon tho
slave-trade, Muzzuk, the principal town of
Fezzan, being the great starting-point
from the north for the interior of Negro
land. Tho most interesting of the oases which
border on Egypt is that of Biwah, the an
cient Ammonium, mado famous in biBtory
by the visits of Cambyses and Aloxandor
the Croat. It is about six miles in length
and two or three in breadth. The ground
is highly impregnated with salt which in
ancient times was purified for sacrificial
purposes, and for tho royal table, yot the
production of fruit in sufficient quantities
to form an important article of merchandise,
indicates a remarkable fertility of the soil.
The ancient inhabitants who came partly
from Egypt and partly from Ethiopia,
brought with them tho worship of the god
Amun, and an oracle was established there,
to which kings repaired for counsel. The
ruins of tho tcmplo are still to be seen and
near them is tho famous Fountain of tho
Sun, of which so many wondors have been
related. Marvelous talcs of its boiling boat
nt night, and its icy coldness by day, come
from tho simple truth that liko many simi
lar tepid springs, retaining its own temper
ature while that of tho surrounding atmos
phere changes, it seems during tho warm
hours of tho day to be quite cold, and in
tho cool hours of tho night to be warmer
than it really is.
Although there is so much that is disa
greeable in a journey across tho doRert,
there are some sights of beauty which can
never be seen elsewhere.
Tho mirago which entrances while it de
ceives tho traveler, is nowhero else seen in
such perfection, and the aurora of tho des
ert is described as gorgeous in the extreme.
So there is no spot in this wonderful earth
ly home of ours, so barren that God's
touch has not left its impress in exquisite
charms of color and outline. Christian

Japanese Urog Shops.
Tho grog shops of Japan are neither
mora nor less than tea shops. All along
public roads, at frequent distances, aro
planted pleasant tea houses. They "tea,"
according to a corespondent, when they
must stop by the wayside, and in such lit
tlo bits of cups that one could drink the
contents of twenty of them and then want
more. Pretty tea girls stand by tho en
trance, and (their teeth not yet blackened)
with pretty ways and courtesies t-o fascina
ting that tea even without sugar or milk
becomes agreeable. On pretty lacquered
waiters tho tea girls hand you little tiny
cups with a mouthful in them, and you
squat down on the nice clean mats, if squat
you can, and you sip and sip this mouthful
of hot tea, as if tho gods' nectar was going
down your throat In infinitesimal dropB of
microscopic invisibility. The keeper of a
Japan tea shop picks out ns pretty a place
for the tea house as she or he can get. Tho
keeper covets, if possible, a view of and tho
air of tho Bay of Yeddo, along which most
of the way here runs tho Tocaido. The
grand tea house is cut up into numerous
little rooms, with paper partitions to part
them running on slides, but all removable
at will, to restore the whole to ono grand
room. ' Cakes, sweetmeats and candies are
brought in with the ten, nil put on the
clean matted floor (there are no seats), and
all squat or stretch out on that floor.
A Sharp Trick.
Some years ago a traveler making a pe
destrian excursion among tho lower
Alps suddenly, at tho turn of a narrow
path came face to face with a very largo
brown bear. Afraid to advance or retreat,
he drew a rovolvor, when suddenly, to his
stupefaction, tho bear cried out "Don't
Are 1" An explanation followed, when it
turned out that the pretended bear was a
man in the employment of some guides,
who di eased him in a bearskin, and sent
him out when they had a timid traveler to
escort. ' At a preconcerted spot the bear
would rush upon them, aud would be only
put to flight after a terriflo combat. The
traveloi never failed to reward the courage
and devotion of the guides by a handsome
present, of which the liear received his al
lotted proportion. It was not a bud busi
ness he said. ,

your second wife first, and keep out of

borrow the money to do it.

Ono of Ward's Jokes.
rilllE "Fat Contibutor," in sonic rccol
JL lections of "Arlomus Ward," tells
the following good story:
In tho spring of 1859 I accepted a proffer
ed editorial position on the Cleveland A't
tionnl Democrat, and renewed my ncquaint
nnco with "Artemus."
On tho first evening of my arrival he
volunteered to show mo around a veiy de
sirable achievement, as I was to till Iho
position of city editor. Ho "showed me
around" so successfully that about 2
o'clock in tho morning, I began to feel al
most as much nt homo in Cleveland as
though I had lived there all my days, to
say nothing of my nights. " Artemus" in
vited me to sharo his bed Willi him for the
remainder of the night, and I accepted.
Adjoining his room lodged a young pro
fessor of elocution, who was endeavoring to
establish n school in Cleveland. Ho was
just starting out in business, and was nat
urally anxious to propitiato tho press.
" Let's get tho professor up," said Arte
mus, "and havo him recito for us."
I remonstrated with him, reminded him
of tho lateness of tho hour, that I waKn't
acquainted with tho professor and all that,
but to no purpose.
"Ho Is a public man," said Ward, "and
public men are glad to meet members of
tho press, as restaurants are supposed to
get up warm meals, at all hours."
He gave a thundering rap on the door as
he shouted:
"Professor-r-r!"
" Who's thore ? What ycr want ?' cried a
muflled voice, evidently from beneath tho
bedclothes, for it was a bitter cold night in
February.
" It is I Brown, of the Plain. Dealer,"
Artemus, and nudging me gently in tho
ribs, ho whispered: "That'll fetch him.
The power of tho press in invincible It is
the Archimedean lever which "
His remarks woro interrupted by the
opening of tho door, and I could just dis
cover the dim outline of a shirted form
shivering in the doorway,
" Exouko mo for disturbing you, Profes
sor," said Artemus, in his blandest man
ner, " but I nm anxious to introduce my
friend hero, the new ' local' of the Demo
crat. He has heard much of you, and de
clares positive he can't go to bed until ho
hears you clocuto."
"Hears mo what?" asked the professor,
between his chattering teeth.
"Hears you elocute recite declaim
understand ? specimon of your elocution.
In vain did the professor plead the late
ness of tho hour, and his flro had gono out.
Artemus would accept no excuse.
"Permit mo at least," urged tho profes
sor, " to put on somo clothes and light tho
gas."
" Not at all necessary. Eloquence, my
dear boy, is not dependent on gas, Here,"
(straightening up a chair ho had just stum
bled over,) "get right up in this chair and
give us, 'The boy stood on tho burning
deck,'" adding, In a side whisper in my
car, " The burning deck will warm him up!"
Gently, yet firmly, did Artemus boost the
reluctant professor upon tho chuir, protest
ing that no apologies were necessary for his
appearance, and assuring him that "clothes
didn't make tho man," although tho shiv
ering disciple of Demosthenes and Cicero
probably thought clothes would make a
man more comfortable ou such a night as
that.
He gavo us " Casablanca," with a good
many quavers of tho voice, as ha stood
quaking in a single short whito garment;
and then followed: "On Linden, when tho
Sun was Low," " Sword of Bunker Hill,"
etc., "by particular request of our friend,"
as Artemus Ward said, although I wns too
near suffocated with suppressed laughter
to make even a last dying request had it
been necessary. It was too ludicrous to
depit tho professor, an indistinct white
object, standing on tho chair "eloeuting,"
as Ward had jt, aud we sitting on the
floor, holding our sidos, while Arti-uiu
Ward would faintly whisper between his
pangB of mirth, " Just hear him.'
. It wasn't in Ward's heart to have his fun
at tho expense of another without recom
pense; so, next day, I remember, he pub
lished a lengthy aud entirely serious ac
count of our visit to the professor's " room,"
spoke of his wonderful powers as an elocu
tionist, and expressed the satisfaction and
delight with which we listened to his "un
equalled recitations." The professor was
overjoyed, and probably is ignorant to this
day that Artemus was " playing it on him."
How They Got Married.
A CLERGYMAN who has had consid
erable experience in splicing couplos,
thus tells how some of them acted on that
solemn occasion:
" Many years ago, as I sat in my study
one Saturday evening, a gentleman of some
two score years entered my room, aud after
a very brief conversation, informed mo that
he wished to be married to the lady who
had accompanied him to my house, and
that ho was somewhat in a hurry, as ho had
several miles to rido that evening before
reaching home. '
We at once entered the parlor, where
the lady, with a friend of hors, was " pa
tiently waiting" for us.
When I notified them that I was ready to
"proceed to business," the gentleman re
marked that he wished to see me in private
a moment. Wo returned to tho hall, where
it was quito certain that no ono could hear
our conversation. After some hesitation,
ho said, "Sir, will you please tell me
which side to stand on? I never was mar
ried ?"
On a pleasant Sunday in Juno I was ab
sent from homo most of the day. On ar
riving at four o'clock, I was requested not
to unharness my horse, but to hurry to tho
house, for a couple had been waiting for
more than an hour for mo to return, that I
might marry them.
As I entered where the" patient waiters
were, tho bridegroom's friend handed mo
tho " necessary documents," prcparaloiy to
a marriiigo ceremony. I asked the bride
groom If I should take his hat, as I was
ready to tio tho nuptial knot. "No, I
thank you," said Jonathan, " I 'uan'tstop."
The ceremony over, the first question
asked was, "What is your bill?" When
I told him to give mo what he pleased,
Jonathan remarked that " ho thought ono
dollar was enough for such a job as that."
I remarked, partly in earnest, and partly in
sport, that, if he had no objections, ho
might pay mo the legal fee, ono dollar
and twenty-fivo cents. Ho did so, after
some hesitation, and immediately left tho
room, witjiout further ceremony. In a
moment ho returned, and thrusting his
head far enough into the room to be seen,
exclaimed, " I don't know but I can find
another quarter, if you want it."
In the mouth of October, ns I was pre
paring a discourse for a special occasion,
having arisen at four o'clock for that pur
pose, n rap on tho door attracted my at
tention. The rain was pouring, aud for
many hours had fallen in great abundance.
" Who can it bo? "thougnt I. "It is two
hours beforo daylight, and tho storm is
truly fearful." The door was opened with
as little noise as possible, so as not to dis
turb the slumbers of the family. It was
dark in the hall, for tho wind was blowing
too heavily to admit of an open light being
taken to tho door. I heard tho voieo of a
human being just abovo a whisper. " Come
in," I said. " Will you marry me," said
tho man, for it proved to bo a man's voice.
"Certainly," I said "como in."
Tho man insisted that I go into tho street
and perform tho ceremony while they were
sitting in the wagon. I objected, for many
reasons; and after somo debato tho woman
made her appearance. In a few minutes
they were off again, having been married
" according to law."
The following week tho bride's sister
called on mo to inquire if Mr. B. and her
sister were married ; nnd when asked why
she wished to bo informed on that point,
she replied that, "if her sister was married,
it was nil right, but if she was not married
somo of her conduct was highly improper."
I finally assured her that they were legally
married, and " had rights that others were
bound to respect."
In Doccmlier, a gentleman widower
somo fifty years old, called nt my house in
the evening, bringing with him a woman
some thirty years old. They were strangers.
I did not inquire into their business. Tho
man was very talkative, and for three hours
ho ceased not to grumble about taxation
and troublesome neighbors. Ho was de
termined to make himself agrecablo wheth
er I liked it or not.
I guessed tho object of his visit, and pa
tiently waited to have him introduce his
own business; but when tho clock struck
ten I had become impatient, and told him
that if ho had any business with mo, I was ;
ready to attend to it. He seemed to have
forgotten what ho came for until his utten-1
tion was called to the subject. ..
Though I had become , thoroughly dis
gusted with tho man, I married him -very
reluctantly to a Uno widow, who had re
mained silent all tho evening.
, In six months from that time he fiillfllled
my predictions, and his wife left him, net
being ablo to endure his abuse any longer.
ThoMi w ho marry for a borne rarely get one. '

TITB CAUSE AND CURE OF
C O N 8 U 51 P T I O N !
rpHK prlmsrj cause of Consumption ! de
J. rangement of tbt digestive organs. This
derangement produces detlclent nutrition and
assimilation. By assimilation, I mean Ilia
prtcessby which the nutriment of the food la
converted into blood, and thence in tut tie solids
of the body. Persona with digestion thus im
paired, having the slightest predlsposltlou
pulmonary disease, or if they take cold, will be
very liable to have Consumption of the Lungs
in some of Its forms and 1 hold thai it wi I be
Impossible to cure any case of Cnusumi tion
without first restoring a good digestion and
healthy assimilation. The very tlrst thing to
be done is to cleanse the stomach nnd bowels
from all diseased mucus mid slime, whloh is
clogging these organs that the; cutiiiot per
form their functions, and then rouse up mid
restore the liver to a healthy action. For this
purpose the surest and best remedy is Hchcnck'g
Mandruk Pills. These Pills cleuu the stoin
ach and bowels of all the dead unit morbid
slime that Is causing dlsenss and ilecuy lu th
whole system. They will clear out the liver or
all diseased bile that has accumulated there,
and rouse It up to a new and healthy action, by
which natural aud hualiuy blls Is secreted.
The stomach, bowels, nnd llrer are thus
cleansed by the une of Sjhenck't Mandrake
Pills but there remains In the stoinarh un ex
cess of aeld, the organ Is torpid uud the appe
tite poor. In the bowels the lacteuls are weak,
nnd requiring strength and support. It is lu a
condition like this that Hcbenck't Seaweed
Tonic proves to be the most valuable remedy
ever discovered. It Is alkaline, and Us ubc
will neutralize all excess of ncid, making the
stomnch sweet and fresh ; It will give perma
nent tone to this Important organ, and creute a
good, hearty appetite, and prepare the system
for the first process of good digestion, uud, ul
timately make good, healthy, living blood
After this preparatory treatment, what leumlus
to cure most case of Consumption Is the free
and pcrsevcrelng uso of Selienk's Pulmonic
Syrup. The Pulmonic Syrup nourishes the
system, purlllcs the blood, und Is readily ub
sorbed into the circulation, nnd thence dbtiib-
uiea totiie diseased nmgs. mere it ripens nil
morbid matters, whether In the form of absces
ses or tuherrles, nnd then usslsts Nature to ex
pel all tho diseased matter, In the form of fret
expectoration, when once it ripens. It is then
by the great healing nnd puryfylng properties
of Schenk's Pulmonic Syrup, that all ulcers
nnd cavities are healed up sound, nnd my pa
tient is cured.
Tho essential thing to bo done in curing Con
sumption is to get up a good appetite und a
good digestion, so that the body will grow In
Mesh nnd get strong. If n person has diseased
lungs n cavity or nbsceBS there rhe cavity
cannot heal, the matter cannot ripen so long as
the system is below par. What Is necessary to
cure is a new order of things a gosd appe
tite, n good nutrition, the body to grow in fit ek
and get fat; then Nature Is helped, the cavities
will heal, the matter will ripen and be thrown
oirin large qualities, and the person will recall
health and stercngth. This is the true and i il
ly plan to cure Consumption, and If a pen on
Is not entirely destroyed, or even If one lung is
entirely gone, If there Is enough vitality left in
the other to heal up. there is hope.
I have seen many persons cured with euly
one sound lung, live nnd enjoy life to a good
old age. Till is what Schciick't Medicines
will do to cure Consumption. They will clean
out the stomach, sweeten and strengthen It, get
up a good digestion, aud git o Nature the sys
tem of all the diseases she needs to clear tin
system of all the disease that Is In the lungs,
whatever the form may bo.
It is important that while using Schunck's
Medicines, care should be exercised not to take
cold i keep lu-doors In cold und damp weather (
avoid night air, and take out-door exercise only
lu n genial and warm sunshine.
I wish It distinctly understood ihct when I
recommend a patient to be careful in regard to
taking cold, while usiug my Medicines, I do so
for n special reason. A man who has but par
tially recovered from the etrects of a bad cold It
far more liable to a rclnpat than ono who hat
been entirely cured ; and It is precisely the earns
Inregnrdlo Consumption. 8o long as the lungs
are not perfectly healed, just so long Is there
Imminent danger of a full return of the disease.
Hence It is that I so strenuously caution pul
monary patients against exposing themselves
toon atmosphere that is not genial and pleat
ant. Confirmed Consumptives', luugs are a
mass uf sores, which the least change of at
mosphere will Inflame. The grand secret of my
success with my Medicines consists in my abil
ity to tnbdue iiifimnmation Instead of provok
ing it, as many of the faculty do. An Inflamed
lung cannot, with safely to tho patient, be ex
posed to the biting blaBtsof Winterer the chill
ing winds of Spring or Autumn. It should its
carefully shielded from all Irritating intlunces.
The utmost caution should be observed in this
particular, as without It a cure under almost
any circumstances is nn Impossibility.
The person should be kept on wholesome and
nutritious diet, und all the Medicines continued
uutil the body bat restored to it the naturul
quantity of llcsh and strength.
I was myself cured by this treatment of tbt
worst kind of Consumption, and have lived it
get fut and hearty these many years, with ont
lung mostly gone. I have cured thousands
since, and very many have been cured by tblt
treatment whom I have never seen.
About the First of October I expect to take
possession of my new building, ut the North
east Corner of Sixth and Arch Streets, whert I
shall be pleased to give advice to all who may
require it.
Full directions accompany all my Remedies,
to that a person in nuy part of the world can
be readily cured by a strict observance of the
tame. J. 11. SCUENCK, M. I).,
