AMONG THE MIXGRELIAX&
HABITS OF THE MOT7NTATNRER3
OF THE WESTERN CAUCASUS.
Their Elaborate SnlutMloni, Odd
Tiulilo i:(linrtn and Peculiar
j indicia I Proceed I njts.
In tbo liifililnnd regions of the western
Cnticasus the mnnncrs of the ('rusininn
mountain folk nro pretty much what they
wore a fiimrter of a century ngo wlicn the
litissinns first cnino into the country. A
Mingrolian "How dyou do!" of tho
genuine old fashioned kind, is still an
elaborate performance that takes no ac
count of time. As in l'alcstine and else
where, (Jrusininn etiquette roiuircs that
salutations shall be exchanged as pooh as
tho pnrties meeting como within sight
of each other, and "to leave out tho most
trivial inquiry relating to the most in
significant member of another's house
hold is accounted extremely Imd form,
o that a couple of silk-shirtcd Minrrre
l'an elders they arc particularly fond of
silk garments, which they wear without
changing until they drop to pieces
will begin a scries of bows nnd bondings
when half a milo from each, other and
continue them with a running fire of ex
clamations until they como within hail
ing distance. Then tho inquiries com
mence: "How is your health?" and
"How have you been (" "How is youi
mother, your wifo and your nurse P
(nurses are very important personage in
'alt Slingrelian households). "How is
your overseer and your yardmaster aud
iiemsnianl" "is your favorite horse
well, ana nro your cattlo and sheep in
good health!" and so on in regular di
minuendo, ending with the meanest
maid servant or scullion of tho person
addressed, if the latter bo a man of
standing or position, and not forgetting
even "his honor's dog." When tho
principals have tinishod, their attendants
proceed as deliberately to exchange
similar compliments. Time is of no
consequence.
Tho Jlingrelians, liko tho Ossetcs of
the mountains, havo the extraordinary
custom of going bareheaded one day in
the week on Saturday, that is, or, as
they term it, the ".habbaU" This they
do in honor of the Sa!ibath, though they
make no other distinction between it
and any other day of the week, working
nnd living as usual. But, wet or dry,
rain or snow, none ever go abroad on
Saturday save with uncovered head.
Tho Mingrelians, liko nearly all the
Caucasian mountaineers, eat much and
eat greedily. Their table etiquette is
peculiar. 1'ortions are allotted accord
ing to age and position according to
age in the house and at family gather
ings, nnd according to station at public
feasts, to which these people are much
addicted. At home the huge iron pot in
which the food is cooked is placed by
the side of the house-father; lor several
married sons often reside in one dwel
ling with their parents. lie takes a
piece of meat aud a large bone out of the
kettle, grasps the bone in the right and
the meat in the left hand, and, facing
south, calls upon "Brussabsell
tshisadta tshidawgita bidiss" the
'mountain tops and the holy ones
who dwell there" to have mercy upon
those who cry to them. Then messes
are sent round to each, beginning with
the oldest male; and when these portions
are eaten there is a general scramble for
jtha contents of the pot, which it is eti
quette to finish. Every one eats his
mess as fast as he can ; for he who has
first finished his plateful has the pi. k of
'the pot. This distribution of the messes
is a very nice task, and is sometimes
provocative of a quaire!. For at a public
meal and the e are frequent the ap
portioning of the food oilers a tempting
.opportunity to the presiding elder for
'resenting a slight, and the guests are
ready enough to take advantage of any
occasion to start one of tho feuds so com
mon among them. In former times tho
rump bone, esteemed a specially honora
ble mess, when withheld from one con
sidering himself entitled tto it, was the
cause of many a murder. And even no w
adays the disposal of a tempting piece of
"kish-ki," or stuffed cntrail, may ac
count for half a dozen broken heads.
The Mingrelians are hearty drinkers.
They make a spirit from grain, and
drink it out of vessels made of horu with
a very narrow top and very long stem.
But they are mighty beer drinkers. They
;brew from bailey, and their drinking
vessels are fashioned of the huge horns
of the aurochs, which still ranges tho
Caucasus, fconie of these beer horns are
a yard and a quarter long. Their sim
ple rule in drinking, judging from what
we have ourselves witnessed, is plenty
and often. Whenever they partake of a
meal, a portion of meat anil drink is re
served and placed in a separate room for
the household spirits.
! In remote villages the old patriarchal
system of the Grusinians is in full force.
The Mingrelian father is lord and mas
ter in the fullest sense. His power is
unquestioned, and he is honored so long
as there is breath in his body. He has a
special armchair, the house-father's seat,
which no other person would ever ven
ture to sit in. In all disputes, civil aud
criminal, the decision of tho elders that
is, a number of house-fathers is bind
ing. If cause of action arise, the ag
grieved parties select each of them three
elders, who must be in nojvay related to
either of them, and the matter is submit
mitted to this court of six. There ure
prescribed penalties for every otTenre,
from manslaughter to petty larceny. The
fine is always payable in oxen. Accord
ing to the old laws of the tribes, the tine
for the murder of a chief was eighteen
times eighteen oxen, for an elder, nine
times nine, and for an ordinary person
three times nine. .Every member of the
body was rated ataccrtain fixed amount,
payable in case of iu;ury to the part.
Theft, when committed by stealth,
entailed upon the criminal the
payment of five fold the thing
stolen, but robbery with violence only
double; for it was held to be easier to
defend oneself from violence than from
crime committed by stealth or guile.
The strangest thing about the proceed-
ings of the .Mingrelian tribal assessors is
that the decision is uevcr communicated
to either pluintill or defendant. Tho
party to be amerced is ordered to pay a
certain tiuo in cattle or bluep within a
certain time, aud then to upjiear ajiain.
When he comes he is once more directed
to furnish, if need be, a second instal
ment, aud so on until the full amount
has been exacted. Ia this way tho .Min
grelians believe the purty punished does
not feel the penalty as he would if the
full judgment weie claimed forthwith,
while time isullowed for the nngry feel
ings of the complainant to settle down
and prepare away for compromise. .Not
the least peculiar thing about tho .Min
greliun and (irusiue tribes of tho t'au
cususis that their scale of numeration is
octodecimul a scule of eighteen; that
is, their hundred, to use a phrase not
scientifically correct but still intelligible
to the reader, being eighteen times
eighteen. St. Jmiu Untitle.

Organized Against Temperance.
'I he liquor dealers of the country are work
ing themselves into a terrible state of min i
over the continued progress of the teiiqier
mice c ause. The "Personal Rights League,''
inleiided as a national organization to work
against the Prohibition movement, wns
chartered in Cbiengo last week under the
laws of Illinois. Branches are to be estab
lished in other cit es. The design is to have
"a, jNipular nntional movement against pro
hinition, though in favor of ' temp ranee."
The liquor dealers of this Stale are to hold a
convention at liullulo.toconsiiler what action
i hull lie taken iu view of the approaching
elections. The Wine, Liquor and beer lieal-H-s'
Ass.K'ialion, of Now York City, has been

Qulnco Culture.
Failure in quince culture is mainly
attributable to two causes lack of nour
ishmi nt and inattention to borers. Tho
quinco is an insatiable feeder, and an an
nual application of manure, salt and
wood ashes over (ho surface soil will in
crease the sizo of the fruit nnd groatlv
enhance its valno. Whether or not tho
fruit when rnccinlly vigorous outgrows
iou nuiivoi iuu e-ouiiu-moiii is a uitn
cult question to answer, but tho fact is,
trees under such favorable conditions
will almost surely bear perfect speci
mens, even wheu others near by oro
badly affected and the fruit misshapen
and poor. Borers surely prefer tho
quince to all other trees as a home for
offspring, or why do wo notice so mnnv
; more of theso pests in their roots? The
j simple met nod or searching Tor thorn nt
j least once every summer is an e'liencious
modo of saving the trees. Tho little
i mass of reddish sawdust indicates their
presence, where a sharp-pointed knife
will trace them out. Aim lrk 3'ril'unt
Copperas as a Fertilizer.
Favorable reports from Franco re
garding copperas as a fertilizer havo
caused considerable inquiry of late.
Copperas has been recommended from
abroad as a valuable dressing fur different
crops. It is claimed that copperas pre
vents mildew, nnd a very weak solution
destroys moss, etc., tho spores of mildew.
An explanation of the favorable effoct of
copperas, is that it incrcises the power
vi mo piaui ior assimilation ; theie is a
lnrge percentage of fibro and nitrogen,
but the incieased crops aro not duo to a
supply of sulphuric arid by tho copperas,
as a superphosphates containing nil
abundance of tho acid proved to have
less effect.
One of tho Connecticut station
bulletins cites- nn instance whero
copperas was used as an experiment iu
this country on corn with good results.
Tho chemist of tho station, while ap
proving of more experiments in this
direction, does not believe that copperas
will bo found generally helpful. Ho
points out that it w 11 be injurious to
plants when applied in too largo
quantities, but that it may be found of
advantagoon rich gat den land that has
had an abundance of other fertilizer
material for many years. Tho general
belief in this country is that copperas as
a fertilizer has little if any value. -A!

Potatoes in Apple Orchard.
Shade is demoralizing to the potato
beetle, and the latter preferably seeks
the sunlight to deposit its eggs on po
tato leaves. There is a popular belief
among farmers that tho potato beetle is
less destructive to potatoes planted in
apple orchards thnu to thoso in open
fields. To this extent tho belief is proba
bly warranted. Farther than this, where
apple trees abound the ladv bug is apt to
be numerous. It is attracted to the apple
by the plant lice, which often attack tho
foliage of this tree early in tho spring.
The lady bug and its larva destroys tho
eggs of theso plant lice, and after these
aro gone they take up their home on the
potato plant, nnd thrive on the eggs of
the potato beetle. The lady bug makes
its home in winter under the rouh bark
of old apple trees, and in sheltered
places under their trunks. Thus they are
good supply to begin with, and in moist,
wet seasons will alone sometimes keep
the potato bug from doing much damage
to the crop on the shade of apple trees.
But as no wages are paid to these indus
trious little workers, the potato grower
must not rely upon their aid aloue. It
he docs not himself keep a sharp eye on
his crop, his insect friends, however bene
ficial at auxiliaries, will leave him in the
lurch. It is not safe for him to depend
on aught save his own vigilance. If lit
uses this ho cannot be cheated. Amtri

1 arm and Garden Notes.
For corn, stir the soil often.
Cut grain beforo it is too ripe.
Keep the tools sharp and clean.
Assort fruit well for marketing.
Sow some sweet corn for fodder.
Good field drink Oatmc.il water.
Wire makes the best fencing fo !
poultry yards.
Buttermilk is a good summer drink
for both town and country.
Working teams should bo given a
period of rest, and water iu thu mid-
lorenoon and mid-afternoon.
Old barrel-hoops put around tomato
vines and nailed to stal cs driven iu tho
ground makes an excel. ent trellis.
A decoction of tobacco boiled in
water and used cold tho next day is
said to have been found effectual against
the current worm.
Chickens and hogs kept together
won't work; you will, find you have
raised very dear pork. It don't work to
keep old and young stock together
keep them separate.
When bees rob one another'! hives,
contract the . entrance to tho smallest
space possible; it compels tho robbers to
pasi in singly, thus enabling the bees
inside to repel them.
The difference between poor butter and
good, as measured in the market, is al
ways great enough to pay for good
service in the dairy, where skill is the
prime factor in securing profit.
The farmer who carries a note-book in
his pocket and jots down his mistakes
as well as his successes in farm work,
will have a very interesting and profit
able book for reference next season.
To make hens lay well give them
plenty of pure water. Water eaters
largely into the composition of an egg,
and you will therefoie see tho need of
giving them plenty of it pure aud
clean.
Hlue-grass is the better for pasture.
Orchard grass is a little earlier in the
spring, but does not make as much feed
through tho scuson, t-ow fifteen pounds
blue-grass seed to the aero, and tweuty
five pounds of orchard grass.
Pine straw, or "needles," make very
good litter for stables and an absorbent
of tho liquid manure. Hut of them
selves they are not of much valuo. They
contain six pounds of phosphate of lime
per 1UU0 pounds, but very little other
useful matters.
There is perhaps not a nook or corner
on the average farm but what may be
used ior some kind of crop that will pay
well for the ruising, and the corners that
are now eye-soreo and bugbears may be
sources of income that aie not exceeded
by any other parts of tho farm.

Have a place in which to deposit
whatever will burn. A shullow tren h
of proper sio should be made to bold

supply may be secured without outlay.
Roles for Tenting Rope.
A German paper, in an article on tho
present methods of rope manufacture
from hemp, nnd the determination of the
different qnnlitics and probnble strength
simply from tho appearance, lays down
tho following rules: A good hemp rope is
hard, but pliant, yellowish or croenish
gray in color, with a certain silvery or
pearly lustre. A dark or bh.ckish color
Indicates thnt tho hemp has suffered from
fermentation In tho process of curing,
and brown spots show that tho rope was
spun while fibres wcro damp, and is
consequently weak and soft In those
places. Again, sometimes a rope is
mado with inferior hemp on tho inside,
covered with yarns of good mnterial - a
fraud, however, which may bo delected
by dissecting a portion of the rope, or,
in practised hands, by its behavior in
use; other inferior ropes aro mado with
short fibers, or with strands of uno ,uul
strength or unevenly spun tho ropo in
the first raso appealing wooly, on account
of the' number of ends of libers project
ing, and, in the latter rase, tho ir
regularity of m inufacture is evident on
inspection by any good judge.

MUCH of the chafing of children under the joints where the skin
lies in folds is due to the use of Soap containing too much
alkali. In the Ivouy Soap there is no excess of alkali, so it can
be used in the nursery with the most satisfactory results. When
applying it, rub a wet cloth upon the Soap, then wash tenderly, but
thoroughly, and rinse perfectly, especially the folds of flesh, with
clear water, nnd dry with equal care, l'rof. Leeds, of the Stevens'
Institute of Technology, says: "The Ivory Soap, while strongly
Cleansing, leaves the skin soft and pleasant to the touch."
A WORD OF WARNING. .
There re many white soaps, each represented to be "just as good as the 'Ivor 1"
they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of
the genuine. Ask for "Ivory" Soap and insist upon getting it.
