Mr. (Jlndstono beearao prime
m nister ' of England, however, ho re
solved that the sultan's delay should
rtirt, and that he should be compelled to
oarryouttheoblijtntions which required
Ji im to mate I lie cession to Montenegro.
He persuaded the other great powers to
loin him m this purpose, and their en
voys all pressed the sultan to yield to
their united demands. Then the sultan

ritory that had heen named, but the
seaport town of Dulcigno to the Prince
or Monf. negro. This proposition was
accepted by that prince and by the treat
powers.
But the Albanians resisted also the
giving up of Dulcigno, and the sultan
neclfired tha he could not compel them
to lay down their arms. Then the
powers, under the lead of England, re
solved to make what they called a
naval demonstration " in Turkish
waters. Accordingly, fleets under the
nags of the various nations England,
Hu!,sia, France, Austria, Italy and Ger
many gatuerrd in the Mediterranean,
nncl sailed to the Adriatic . These com
bined squadrons were unde.- the com
mand of the English admiral Seymour.
They anchored in a bay called Gravosa,
very near Dulcipno; and Admiral
eymour then called upon the prince of
Montetirgro to take possession of the
town with his troops. But this, the
prince declared, he was unable to do.
.ie said that he would soon be overpow
ered by the Turkish and Albanian sol
diers ; tind he asked that the fleets should
assist hira by themselves opening tire
upon the town. This.how -ver.the French
ships refused to do; and as the powers
desired above all things to remain
?i? ' " WRB dec'Jed that the only part
the fleet could take was to ride at an
chorage and look on while the Mon
tonegv.ts attacked the town, and took it
ttiey could.
The sultan now said that if the fleets
would go away, and not seem to be
threatening him. Dulcigno should be
given up. But the powers knew too
well what the promises of the sultan
were good for. They were not woith
the paper on which they were written.
ncet remained, and the prince
of Montenegro prepared to try to capture
the town; while the fiery Albanians
Btill remained fortified and defiant
wii tin its walls. At last, however, the
sultan yielded, and agreed to give up
the town; and thus the "naval demon
strhtion," without firing a guo, or per
forming a hostile action, succeeded in
its purpose.
Other serious matters, however, con
nected with the Eastern question re
main to be settled. Turkey must still
be foiced to grant some territory to the
Greeks; and we may be sure that Mr.
"ladslone, who is an ardent champion
of Greece, will be very much in earnest
when the Greek frontier comes to be
decided.
Soon or late the sultan must make up
his mind to satisfy these Greek de
mands; but it may be that another and
more violent ' naval demonstration "
will be brought to bear upon hitn, be
fore he will yield to what must be to
him a very bitter necessity. Youth's

Opium Drunkards.
The public were shocked hot lone
since by the account of the death of a
lady, the daughter of one of the most
eminent professional men in the country,
trom an overdose of mi rphine. The
wretched story was published all over
the country.
This woman was young and beautiful.
She had high culture, and was by nature
gentle, loving and lovable. A few years
ago she began to take opium for some
disease, and socn became its victim. All
her struggles against it were vain. At
an ag hen she should have been in the
full vigor of her womanhood, a happy
nnd retired wife and mother, she died
alone, and her downfall and disgrace
were blazoned in every city of the Union.
Opium drunkenness is said to be on
the increase in this country, and it pre
vails largely among women. Very few
matrons or young girls, when suffering
from weakness or nervous disorders,
would resort to brandy or whisky. But
a doge of laudanum, or some other
anodyne, they regard as harmless.
Phjsieians, too, heedlessly prescribe
something which they vaguely call
"drops "to an overworked mother, or
young girl exhausted by incessant danc
ing and flirting, when the proper reme
dies would be a few weeks' rest from
labor aud care, and a more wholesome,
rational life.
American women are, as a rule,
energetic. The busy housekeeper and
the eager belle find resort to a seemingly
innocent little black bottle, when they
are "run down," much easier than the
giving up of work, or the sacrifice of
balls and germans. Before they are
conscious of their danger, they are
viotims to the most hopeless and terrible
of appetites they are opium drunkards.
It is probable that no one who has
ever become addicted to this habit has
been able to conquer it. DcCjuincy
wrote a book that for dramatic horror
and pathos has not its like in literature,
to prove that it was possible to rise "out
pf the deep;" but he sank again, help
less and hopeless.
The best monograph on the opium
habit written in America, was the work
of a brilliant man of letter who
believed himself cured, yet died its
victim. Most of our readers can recall
at least one opium drunkard whom thev
have known. The livid, corpse-like
skin, the glassy eye, the vague air of
terror, are unmistakable. They are signs
that the nightmare, life-in-death, has
seined its prey, and is dragging it surely
down to the grave. You'Ws Companion
Wangerous Toys.
An English paper publishes the fol
lowing caution, which may he of ser
vice to A merican parents : A number
of toys imported to Paris from Furth,
in Bavaria, have been seized by the
police because the brilliant colors with
which they were painted were composed
of poisonous materials. Young chil
dren carry almost everything which
they hold in the hands to the mouth, and
therefore, neither the coloring nor the
tubstance of toys should ever be poison
cus. Toys of brilliant ; hues, elastic balls,
colored and varnished, and leaden sol
diers in uniform, of every variety, are
among the seizures. The Furth manu
facturers send their toys all over Ger
many, and Germany furnishes nearly
all the cheap toys in England,
f It, is very probable that this country
will not escape its share of the distribu
tion, so parents should keep a sharp eye
on the nursery, and see that sickness or
deoth may not lurk in these means of
childish amusement.

Iterl Pepper and Poultry.
I do not know if other persons who
raise poultry and pet birds are as much
dependent as I am on red pepper; but I
have found so much benefit from its use
in my poultry yards and bird capes that
it may not be amiss to call the attention
of others to its good properties. I do
not speak of the article that is sold in
drug stores (and sometimes not remark
ably fresh) but of the capsicum that
grows in our gardens. I have tried all
the different varieties, and find that the
most pungent and efficacious is the small
kind usually known by the name of
" bird's pepper." The plant in it-elf is a
beautiful object; it grows about two feet
high, and in autumn its bright little
scarlet berries look like coral beads
peeping from under the dark, green
foliage. Indeed, one plant in a pot
forms a very pretty ornament for a
flower stand. The seeds possess a stimu
lating and reviving property, and I find
two or three given to newly-hatched
chickens, especially if they are weakly,
have a most happy effect. If a hen
looks feeble after molting, six of these
berries or pods given daiiy in some corn
meal and sweet milk improves her won
derfully. Last summer two of my finest
canaries began to droop. Every day I
gave them each one seed of the "bird's
pepper," and in less than a week they
were quite well. The same remedy is
invaluable for mocking birds. Poultry

Azaleas.
Azaleas, if left to themselves, will de
velop long shoots that after a time
become naked below and are furnished
with leaves only at their extremities.
Flower stems are formed on the new
wood of each summer's irrowlh. Con.
sequently, the amount ol bloom, other
tilings Demg equal, depends upon the
amount of young wood annually pro
duced. In order to have plants of good
shape when they become large, it is nec
essary to give attention to pinching and
training them irom the first. The pra
mid form, or, more properly, that of a
cone, and rounded at the top, is con
sidered the best for the plant, as it allows
the greatest exposure of leaf surface.
Two princical methods are adonted to
reeulate the growth and bring plants
into snape; one is Dy successive pmch
ings as the growth proceeds, the other
Dy allowing long shoots to grow and
then bending nnd training them down,
thus causing many of the dormant buds
along their whole length to break and
develop into shoots. Amcric m Culti

Patent Floor.
Patent flour is now coming into gen
eral use, and many of our leaders may
be interested in reading the following
explanation of what it is and how it is
made, taken from the Prairie Farmer:
Until recently the best flour was made
from winter wheat; or, rather the flour
made from winter wheat sold for the
most money because it was white. But
it consisted for the most part of the
starch of the grain, while the most, of
the gluten (the most nutritious pat t of
the grain) went into the middlings.
In grinding spring wheat so much
bran remained in the flour that it was
too dark to suit the taste of the con
sumers But the middlings, which sold
at a low price, has become the most de
sirable part of the grain.
Middling purifiers by which the
bran is separated from the middlings
have made a revolution in the business
of milling.
By the new process the wheat is
ground as before, except that the efforts
of the miller are directed to obtaining
the most middlings possible, and these
are placed upon large horizontal sieves
which are constantly agitated, while at
the same time by ingenious devices a
drat t of air is rushed up through the
sieves which carries off the bran.
The purified middlings are then re
ground and the product is "patent"
flour, containing the glutenous, or most
nutritious portion ot the grain. Thus it
is explained whv the hard spring wheats
of Minnesota, Northern Wisconsin and
Dakota bring the highest price in the
market, whereas only a few years ago
t'jey oommunded only the lowest price.

' There are frequent references in
Shakespeare and contemporary writings
to " sea coal fires;" the term " sea coal"
being applied to the soft coal brought
by sea to London from Newcastle.
Early in the thirteenth century its use
was prohibited in London on account of
its unhealthf ulness ; but the prohibition
was not long observed, and it soon be
came the only fuel. Combined with
the thick and constant fogs which now
hangover or inwrap the city, the smoke
and soot is increasing the death rate
every year, and has even caused some
fear of a catastrophe which shall end in
suffocating the whole city, and the
calamity of Pompeii in a different form

posed is the importation of anthracite
from America, so that the old term of
" sea coal " may come into use again.
There is now in process of construc
tion a railroad across the Isthmus of
Tehuantepec, Mexico. The width of
this isthmus from ocean to gulf is abvut
120 miles, but the projected route of the
railroad, being somewhat circuitous,
will be nearly thirty miles longer. The
eastern terminus of the road is the
mouth of the river Coatzacoalcos, and
from this point the railroad has already
been completed for a distance of about
ten miles, and the grading of another
section of nearly twenty miles is fin
ished. The terms of the concessions
from the Mexican government demand
that the entire road shall be completed
within two years from next January.
Native laborers have been employed
thus far; but Northern engineers will
survey the harbors and the interior, as
well as lay out the route ot the road on
the Pacific 9ide of the isthmus. North
ern mechanics will also be generally em
ployed in the construction of trestle
work, culverts and bridges. The route
between New Orleans and San Francisco
will be shortened about 2,300 miles b
tin railroad across this isthmus, as com
pared with Darien or Panama, thus
making an important saving of time and
money in commerce.
For the first time in America, in the
record of the settlement of a large estate,
the expressed wishes of a ricli man have
been literally lollowed by his heirs
rather than their legal rights as ex
pressed in his will. Mr. Joshua T. Jeanes,
who died in January last in Philadel
phia, left an estate of about $1,000,000,
bequeathing to his two brothers and two
sisters $100,000 each, and to his sisters
additionally all his real estate in Phila
delphia. It was the intention of the
tedtator to make certain bequests to pub
lic institutions and a few friends, but
this he neglected to do; but the brothers
and sisters decided not only to have the
wishes of the testator carried out, but
consented to an equal division of the
estate between them after the gifts to
institutions and individuals and the ex
penses incident to the transfer ot the
property were deducted. Of the totl
amount five gifts ot $2 000 each were pai 1
to individuals, and the following dona
tions were made : Working Home for
BindWomen. $5,000 Working Homefor
B ind Men, $j,000; Women's hospital,
$20,000; Academy of Natural Sciences,
$20,000; Penn asylum, $5,000. The
very large sum of $46,444.40 was pai J to
Register-of-Wills Taylor as a collateral
inheritance tax. The balance ot $874,
214.81 was divided into four equal
shares of $218 214 each, tor each of the
surviving brothers and sisters. This
estate of nearly $1,000,000 was settled up
within eighc months of the time it was
taken into court.
The Size of a Drop.
Mr. T. L. Talbot has made a series of
experiments regarding the size of drops
and their use in measuring medicines,
etc. He finds that liquids containing a
small portion of water afford a small
drop and visa versa. Gamelin's state
ment " that the cohesion of liquids is
pretty nearly in proportion to their
specific gravity " is called in question,
and the fact that r.lcohol and mecury
afford nearly the same number of drops
to the drachm certainly throws consider
able doubt upon the matter. The size of
drops is effected principally by the co
hesion ol the liquid, and the form of lip
over which the drop falls. Bottles with
ground necks, wide, thin even lips give
fair results, bt are not so accurate as
" droppers." Tfc e best of these will not,
however, average at all well. The ad
ministration of powerful medicines
should not be attempted by drops, and
this mode or measurement is. in any case.
inadmissable if the quantity exceeds half
a drachm. The largest drop is formed
by syrup of gum arabio, forty-four to the
drachm, and the smallest by chloroform
250 to the drachm. As a general rule
tinctures. Quid extracts and essential
oils yield a drop less than one-halt the
size of water, and acids and solutions
give a drop but slightly smaller than
water. -Journal of Lhemuiry.

Do not neglect ventilating your bed
rooms when the weather becomes cold.
In the morning hoist the windows, take
off the bedclothes, shake and stir the
ticks, turn the upper one over the foot
roll. This will prevent the impure odors
penetrating further, and they will escape
faster while the bed is warm, and you
will not have to wait for the beds to air
when you are ready to make them.
In hot weather we sleep with all the
windows open, but do not allow the
wind to blow directly upon us. In the
coldest nights of winter we only leave
the doors open connecting with other
rooms. On no account sleep in tight
rooms without at least a crack to ad wit
of pure air. Plenty of fresh air gives
health, strength and elasticity to the
lungs and body.
Keep the pores of the skin open, to let
impurities pass out freely, by washing
the body once a week in winter, and
oftener in summer. Have the room
warm, bathe quickly and wipe dry, and
you will not ft. el chilly if it has been
done properly. If all the clothing worn
by day were aired, while we sleep in
other garments, much health and com
fort would be added to life. One-third
of our lives is spent in our sleeping
rooms. Do be particular about them.
Let them be large, dry and pleasant.
