2s' oi loss of Eeaitt. The Japanese women
gild their teeth, the Indiana paint them red,
whilst in Gaznret the pearl of the teeth, to be
beautiful, must be dyed black. The ladies of
Arabia stain their fingers and toes red, their
yebrows black, and their lips blue. In Per
i a, they paint a black streak round the eyes,
and ornament their faces with Tarious .figures
In Greenland, the women color their faces with
green and yellow, whilst the hottentot women
paint in compartments of red and black. Ilin
doo females, when desirous of appearing par
ticularly lovely, smear themselves with a mix
tare of saffron and turmeric. In ancient Per
ia, an aquiline nose was often thought worthy
of the crown, but the Sumatron mother care
fully flattens the nose of her daughter. Eas
tern Sketches.
Lord Seafortb, who was born deaf and
dumb, was to dine one day with Lord Melville
Jost before the time of the company's arrival,
Lady JUeivuie sent into the drawing-room a
lady of her acquaintance, who could talk with
her fingers to dumb people, that she might re
ceive Lord Seafortb. Presently Lord Gnil
ford entered the room ; and the lady, taking
him for Lord Seaforth, began to play her fin
gers very nimbly; Lord Guilford didthe same ;
and they had been carrying on the conversa
tion in this manner for about ten minutes when
Lady Melville joined them. Her female friend
immediately said, "Well, I have been talking
away to this dumb man." "Dumb !" cried
Lord Guilford ; "bless me I thought you were
dumb." Rogers' Table Talk.
A Lady is Comuasd. It will be remembered
that Lieut. Montgomery, of the United States
Army, not long since lost his life in the ser
vice, in Oregon. His death left his widow,
formerly Miss Northrop, of Akron, Ohio, and
one child, in comparative penury, as is gener
ally the case with those who devote their lives
to their country's service. She returned, and
Gen. Jcssup, with the kindness of heart and
chivalry which characterise a bravo soldier,
immediately gave to htr, it is stated, the trust
of Fort Gratiot, now unoccupied by a garri
son, a duty which she can fulfil, and the pay
of which is very fair.
. Sadly Beautiful The New York Mirror
says there is a young lady in that city so daz
zlingly beautiful, that her guardians do not
dare to allow her to go out of the house. She
remains shut up at home, and is only visible
lo female visitor. What a blessing the small
pox would be to this imprisoned belle! It
should be added, that, with the "fatal gift of
beauty," the young lady possesses other charms
amounting to about $00,000.
To Keep a Stove Bb ight.- Make weak alum
water, and mix your ''British Lustre" with it ;
put two teaspoonsful to a gill of alum water,
let the stove bo cold, brush it with the mix
ture, then take a dry brush and lustre, and rub
the stove till it is dry. Should any parts bo
fore polishing, become so dry as to look gray,
moisten with a wet brush and proceed as be
fore. By two applications a year it can be kept
as bright as a coach body. Ex.
There was a fellow in New York State that
asked a young lady out to ride ; the young
lady agreed ; he drove around to tho house at
the appointed time ; a young lady made her
appearance dressed in the prevailing fashion ;
having got herself and hoops into tho cutter,
the young' man saw that there was no chance
for him, whereupon ho mounted the horse's
back and drove off in triumph. Gallant young
man !
Plum Trees. It is said that Mr. John Brush,
of Brooklin, has saved the plums on a number
of trees, the last season, by binding bunches
of tansy upon the limbs in several places.
The fruit upon the trees thus treated ripened
to perfection ; while that near by, not thus
protected, was entirely destroyed by the cur
culio. This is an item worth remembering for
the coming season.
A somewhat ECCE.TRic,yct celebrated judge,
some years ago, was asked by a counsellor to
put down a case lor the last Friday in the
month of March, which happened to be Good
Friday. His honor indignantly replied : "Xo,
sir, I won't set any cause down for that day.
There never was but one judge who tried a
cause on that day that was( Pontius Pilato
sir.
The Washington Star cautions the public
against spurious quai tcr eagles, which have
made their appearance in the eastern cities.
They arc dated 1854,' and are well executed,
save their brassy color and light weight.
"I dojs't wish to say anything against the
person in question," said a very polite gentle
man, "but would merely remark, in the lan
guage of the poet, that to him truth is strange,
stranger than fiction.' "
Wealthy. Prince Paskie witch, of Russia,
died, worth 70,000,000 Polish florins, (about
57,000,000.) He hag bequeathed 30,000,000
florins to bis ion, and the balance between his
two daughters.
A ciiizen down east was dubbed "the little
rascal !" A friend once volunteered to ask
him why he was called the little rascal. "To
distinguish mo from ray neighbors, who are al
great rascals !"
"There, John, that's twice you've come
home and forgotten that lard." "Really, mo
ther, it was so greasy that it slipped my mind."
The man that can stop rum-drinking "when
ever he has a mind to," has gone West to dine
with Tcrpetual Motion.
