Libraries.
I I lii nk it was Jean I'aul who said lie
always looked on a library as a learned
riiHrrrmitioM. But there are libraries ami
libraries.
II. L. told me he once found a foolish,
ix-dantie old millionaire curled ui in
a luxurious apartment, walled with
rirhly bound books, not one of which
he had ever read, hut all of which he
pretended to have devoured. L. says
that when he. entered this room, be-
studded with glittering tomes, the pro
prietor exclaimed, "And so vou have
found me out at last, alone with my
Imoks! Here's where I hide awav
from the family, day after day, and
voImhIij'i unite the visrr!'', IMerce Kgan
has an anecdote of another "literarv
character,' which I quote in this con
uectioti without comment.
" lady, resident in Ilevonstiire, go
ing into one of her parlors, discovered
a young ass, w ho had found his way
into the room and carefully closed the
door ujton himself. He had evidently
not been long iu this situation before he
had nibbled a part of Cicero's Orations
and eaten uearlv all the index of a folio
edition of Seneca in Latin, a largs iart
of a volume of La IJruyere's 'Maxims'
iu French, and several pages of 'Cecilia.'
He had done n- other mischief w hat
ever." The library of old Sir John I km vers,
as described by Bernard, must have
im-hii a curiosity. It a'MHindcd with the
best works of the lest authors, but
ihere was not one perfect volume in it.
So eager had been Sir John in his pur
suit of know ledge, says Bernard, that
he had inspected every book iu his col
lection : and wherever a passage pleased
him, he tore nut the leaf and thrttut it into
kilt jOef.'
That w as a clever remark of an Kng
lUh essayist who told us so many years
ago that he had such a reverence for
the wisdom folded up on his library
shelves that he considered the very
perusal of the backs of his books
discipline of humanity."
There are some household libraries
which once visited can never be for

none too long to sjiend in that "house

The Ribboa Fish.
Frank Bucklaud, in a recent letter to
Lend and Water, says : "I have received
through the kindness of a correspond
ent at Nice, a very interesting and re
markable specimen of a ribbon fish. I
make him out to be a regalicu. I have
never before seen one of these most
curious nsh iu the flesh. It measures
five feet, Is about a quarter of an Inch

Upon the top of the head there are fila

full, are about eight inches long. The
head is vet y remarkable; altogether it
is not unlike the shortened head of
horse. The mouth is prehensible, and
so peculiarly formed that it is quite
worthy of a figure; the eyes are very
large and circular; the iris of a lustrous
silver color. Behind the head the body
is two inches and a half deep, in the
middle two inches, at the tail a quarter
of an inch. When held up to the light
it is almost transparent : the vertebra
can w ith difficulty lie seen, but w ith
the movement of the fingers each ver

EOKSES AND VCXES EaTTXO Uikt. A
correspondent of the New York Tribune
asks why horses and mules eat dirt
when turned out of close stables, to
which Professor Law replies: "Most
commonly the habit Is an indication of

rected . by Improving the digestive
functions. Horses are at a special dis
advantage in the matter of stomach
complaints, inasmuch as they cannot
rid themselves by vomiting, of anything
that disagrees with luem, and are un
able even to belch up accumulated gas.
Then the stomach is much too small to
allow of heavy feeding or the formation
of much gas without injurious overdis
tension, hence, of all domestic animals,
the solipeds should be fed with the
greatest care and judgment. Like hu
man beings they have their periods of
acidity or heartburn, and having no op
portunity of taking soda or magnesia,
they lick the lime from their walls, or
the earth from their pathway. For
temporary relief a piece of chalk may
be kept in the manger, but we should
seek to remove the radical evil by
giving a better tone to the stomach
Feed sound grain aud bay in moderate
amount aud at regular intervals, and
don't drive or work hard for an hour
after each meal, lest digestion should be
impaired. Give a few carrots, turnips,
or other roots, if available ; water regu

put an ounce ol common salt in tne looa

Divide into eight powders, and give one
morning and night. The habit has
been sometimes caused by a deficiency
of mineral matters in the food grown on
very poor soils, but this may be cor
reeled bv a similar treatment.
Soiling. The number of inquiries
which we from time to time received
relative to the benefits of soiling would
seem to indicate that there is a glowing
interest in this mode of feeding. Theo
retically it is much better to keep the
animals (especially cows) fenced up and
bring the grass or other food to them
a larger number may be fed from a
given area, and the only question is
whether this increase in number will
pay the increased expense. If we are
to take practice as an answer it is evi
dent that a large majority of our dairy
men think it will not pay for the extra
labor, and hence still allow the stock
to run in the pasture and select their
own food.
Many of our best dairymen have to a
certain extent compromised the matter
bv adding four or five cows to their
usual stock, and plantingau acre or two
of sown or thick! v drilled corn; as soon
as this corn is large enough, and the
fall pasture begins to fail, it is supple
mented by the green corn fodder led
out on the pasture. By sowing an acre
or two ot rye for early spring cutting
and an acre of oats for early summer
feeding, the time between winter feed
and after harvest pasture may be bridged
over without any decrease in the flow
of milk. If any of our readers have bad
any practical experience in this line we
should be glad to hear Irom them.
Castor Beans. We hope our farmers
will turn their attention more to the
culture of castor beans. Grasshoppers
will not eat them, but w ill keep the
weeds and grass down, and give the
beans a chance to grow. They are

limestone clay loam is perhaps the best
soil, but some lighter soils, that are
warm and rich, will produce good bar

Ilunr the Miri.lltea ret their Wivr.
u Marrying Wnliln the Tribe.
Perhaps the most extraordinary cus
tom of the Miridites, who are Roman
Catholics, is that by means of which
they get their wives. When a young
man among them contemplates marriage
he first goes to some Mohammedan lo
cality and finds out where the maidens
are wont to stay. Then he returns, or
ganizes a party of frienls and relatives,
and, swooping down on the habitation
of the bride elect, carries her off to his
mountain home and to a state of wed
lock. But the most singular part of
the whole affair is that, in spite of the
appearance of violence, the matter is
really devoid of any hostile feeling,
and is, in fact, a perfectly amiable ar
rangement; for the husband afterwards
hands over to the bride's relatives the
price that is considered a bride's equiva
lent in that part of the world, and both
sides remain contented and on intimate
and agreeable terms with each other.
The idea of giving this semblance of
force to a courtship and literally taking
to one's self a wife seems to be that it is
more manly to seize upon the lady than
to sue for her. V by Mohammedan
women are always selected for capture
by these fanatical Christians does not
appear. But It Is probable that a desire
to make proselytes is the chief motive
which causes this action. The women
taken are not Turkish, but members of
Albanian tribes which have become
Mohammedan, so it is probable that
they, and consequently their children,
are looked upon as stray sheep brought
back to the fold. As for the Miridite
women they must take their chances of
getting husbands among the other
Christian tribes of Northern Albania,
or else remain virgins all their days, for
on no account will the Miridite men
marry within the tribe.

'Ditcueert of bjcyqe in te Sn by Pkoto
oroi Av. Profefceor Henry Draper has
announced the discovery of a series of
bright lines or bands in the photograph
of the solar spectrum, which correspond
exactly with the principal bright lines
or bands seen in photographs obtained
by means of electric illumination in the
spectrum of oxygen.
He has, in the America Journal of
Science and Art, published a paper and
illustrated it with a photograph, in
which he shows the perfect coincidence
of certain bright lines. Ihe photo
graph contains in its upper half the
solar spectrum, and in its lower half the
spectrum or air obtained by passing the
spark of a Gramme induction machine
(driven by iirayton's petroleum motor)
from an iron to an aluminum point.
1 he coincidence of the luminous oxy

really remarkable; aud as the photo

made experiments with these gases at

that the spectrum of oxygen is not sub

times, when our knowledge of this re

Fish from an ArUtian II eft. At a
recent meeting of the San francisco
Academy of Sciences, specimens of fish.
supposed to be trout, were presented,
accompanied by a letter from Thomas
Jt. lUrd, of llueneme, entura county.
Cal. They were thrown up from an
artesian well 141 feet deep near that
place. The well, .which is nearly 300
feet deep from high water mark,
was bored in 1871, and ever since has
thrown out immense quantities of fresh
ly spawned fish in April and May. The
first fish this year were observed in
March. The well is capped, having
three two-inch apertures, from one of
which people were in the habit of filling
barrels of water for household uses. In
that way the presence of fish was dis
covered in 1872. The cap was removed
and fish were ejected in incredible
quantities, until the cap was replaced.
The fish are said to be of various sizes,
the largest about an inch in length. The
nearest stream where fish are found is
Santa Paula Creek, twenty-five miles
from the well, but it empties into the
Santa Clara river, at a point twenty
miles distant.
Fretzintt rvint of Ether. Our common
ethylic ether, improperly called sul
phuncether, because made by the action
of sulphuric add upon alcohol, is
known to be a substance which does not
freeze very readily. Its freezing point
has been variously stated by different
investigators, but Franchiment thinks
that pure ether cannot be Irozen. He
has cooled It to SO drg. C. ( 112 deg.
Fall.) aud it remained a thin liquid
showing no signs of crystallization. In
ether containing any water, white crys
talline flakes form at a very low tem
perature but the less water there is
present the lower the temperature re
quired will be, and the smaller the
quantity of crystals. Franchlmoiit
thinks that these flakes are no crystals
of ether, but ice crystal. The question
seems to be one not easily settled, lor
few experimenters care to work at
such extremely low temperatures, ob
tainable only by the expenditure of so
much time, labor, and expense.
A HUtoiir lrae-on.
Among the curiosities which are
about to be added to the Museum of
Cluny, are a number ot relics lately
purchased in the Island of Rhodes. M.
u Sommerard, the director of the
Museum, and M. Schlumberger, of the
Society of French Antiquarians, have
negotiated the purchase of these monu
ments, which are principally ornaments
for the tombs of the Grand Masters of
the Order of St. John. One of them is
fragment of the sepulchre of the
famous Deodat de Gozen, who was at
the head of the Order from 1316 to 1353.
He was a gentleman of Languedoc, and
was celebrated throughout the whole of
the Levant under his title of "Extinctor
Draconls," or the dragon-slayer. He
had acquired the name by an exploit
worthy of Hercules or Theseus, the de
scription of which, as embellished by
the legends of the Middle Ages, is fit to
be compared with the tales of Greek
mythology relating to Lerna or Crete.
According to the pious chroniclers at
tached to the Order of St. John, the in
habitants of the island were, in the
earlier part of the fourteenth century,
tormented by the presence of a ferocious
monster, armed with enormous jaws
and teeth, and a huge tail, and pro
tected by scales, apparently invulnera
ble to mortal arms. For years this
beast was permitted to ravage their
lands and scare the children out of their
its, until at last subdued and slain by
the redoubtable lance of Deodat de
Gozen. This was the established history
current among the puny Greeks of the
Levant. But Paoli, the chief historian
of the Order, casts some doubt upon the
tale, and the inquiries made by the two
French antiquarians reduce it, not in
deed to the level of a complete myth,
but to very modest proportions. It
seems that the dragon was an alligator
imported by some mounte bank from
Africa, and that probably the young
knight Deodat, as he then was, thought
it a good joke to try the temper of his
lance by riding at the poor beast and
transfixing him.

and, if he has little or no attachment to
life, he will sup away as easily as a
child will fall asleep. Men live by their
minds as well as by their bodies. Their
bodies have no life of themselves; they
are only receptacles of life tenements
for their minds, and the will has much
to do in continuing the physical occu
pancy or giving it up.
Many of the colds which people are
said to catch commence at the feet. To
keep these extremities warm, therefore,
is to effect an insurance against the al
most interminable list of disorders
which spring out of a "slight cold."
First, never be tightly shod. Boots or
shoes when they fit too closely press
against the foot and prevent the free
circulation of the blood. V hen, on the
contrary, they fit with comparative
looseness, the blood gets fair play, and
the spaces left between the leather and
the stockings are filled with a comforta
ble supply of warm air. The second
rule is, never sit in damp shoes. It is
often imagined that unless they are
positively wet it is not necessary to
change them. This is a fallacy, for
when the least dampness is absorbed
into the sole it is attracted nearer the
foot itself by the heat, and thus per
spiration is dangerously checked. Any
person may prove this by trying the
experiment of neglecting this rule.
1 he leet will become cold and damp
after a few moments, although on tak
ing off the shoe and warming them
they will appear quite dry.
FaN'CY Work. The fancy for em
broidery has become so great that bits
of It are applied to various small arti
cles, such as the tops of boxes, the
backs of brushes, bags, baskets, and
shawl covers. Round boxes of red
leather for collars, and large square
boxes of red leather for gentlemen's
handkerchiefs, have the words ''Collars,
and cuffs," or else "Handkerchiefs,"
wrought upon them : also the monogram
of the owner. Clothes brushes, aud the
fine soft brushes used for velvet, are
ornamented on the back with bead em
broidery. Baskets of the stylish rough
Mackinaw straw are trimmed with
worsted leaves, cherries, and other small
fruits. lliirpe.r't lltuur.
Confectioners' Taeky. To four
pounds of sugar add a full pint of
water; place it on the fire, stir till it is
dissolved and boil it to the crack, at
which point you add half pound of the
best butter which you have cut up into
small pieces; stir the butter into the
sugar with a wooden spatula as quickly
as possible and add a little essence of
lemon or vanilla at the same time; now
pour it immediately on the slab (which
you have previously slightly oiled or
rubbed with butter) and while it is yet
warm cut it into tablets or diamonds
whichever suits your fancy.
Stov Blacking. We hope the fol

soda) to the consistency of syrup ami
applied with a brush as a thin and even
coating, then left twenty-four hours to
dry. Afterwards graphite, or black
lead mixed with gum water, is applied,
and a polish obtained by rubbing in the

Mm. fctuhh- the Sutler'. Wife.
She was tall, she was gaunt as a giay
wolf in Winter. She was strong of
arm and stout of nerve, with a tilent
for devising and a will for executing
almost any work. She could serve a
dinner to a tolerably straitened garrison
that would tempt a king, or she could
steady a rifle and drop a red skin, if
need be, at 300 yards. There was even
a rough kind of femininity about the
woman, who was by no means disagree
able to look at, with her bright black
eyes and her brown cheeks showing a
subdued flame. She had been known
more than once to nurse a wounded
man back to life when the surgeons had
given him up, with just scolding
enough, it must be owned, to spur him
on to convalescence. Add to these the
aggressive qualities of thrift and neat
ness, and we shall have a perfect char
acter, you will say. Oh no; do you
fancy that all the natural graces and
Christian virtues are to be found in one
individual? She was envious. (But
that is not so rare a fault that it need be
dwelt upon.) She was crafiy and un
scrupulous. But the first she concealed
by the second; and the third, in tend
ing upon the other two, kept in the
background. And then she was comely
to look at that is a better cloak than
charity, even, with her sleek black
hair aud the fresh color just deadened
by the tan on her cheeks. Comely to
look at, if one could forget the embers
in her eyes, which a gust of passion
might blow Into a blaze. After all, it
was a kind of beauty which a man
might like to look upon, but would
hardly covet lor his own.
As for her thrift and neatness, the
sutler's quarters showed the effect of
these good qualities, which were a kind
of stockade aliout the real woman. Her
home was tidy and inviting, or would
have been, but that the tidiness became
tyrannical at times, (iradually a kind
of cabaret of a most respectable pattern
was established here, where the officers
dropped in of an evening to order a bit
of supper, which the mistress of the
house was not above cooking with her
own hands. A well-thumbed pack of
cards was brought into requisition
while waiting for this to be served, and
rumor did say that many a pile of gov
ernment gold changed hands over the
table here. But rumor is always ma
licious, and this may not have been
true. Drinking there certainly was,
but no brawling over the cards or wine,
or the friendly pipe with Stubbs him
self, who was a quiet, shrewd man, an
excellent listener at all times and
what could be more desirable in a com
panion ? He could even tell story of
his own when Mrs. Stubbs was not by.

in the dining-room. We slept late Sun
day morning, but finally waking up
commenced to talk. I said, 'Charles,
I'll bet you I can tell what they had at
this hotel for dinner yesterday.'
What was it?' he asked. 'Roast beet,' I
replied, basing my judgment on a stale
sort of odor that pervaded the room.
'No, you're mistaken,' said he, shaking
his head and sniffing at the covering of
his bed; 'it was mutton.' We both
stoutly maintained our respective pro
positions, and railing to a vigorous
smelling of our bed-clothes, found the
landlord had given us a couple oi taDie-
cloths for bed-spreads, and Charles had
got the mutton-cloth and I the beef."
Sue had lust returned from a visit to

Dut on a look of disgust and said : It
there is anything on this earth that Is
hateful it Is to see married people Kiss

from under the table, where he had
been hunting a stray marble, and ad
dressing his sister, said: "lou and
George is all the time kissing each
other before me; but you isn't married
yet, and then, 1 'spose I'm too small to
be folks." That boy told another little
boy next morning that it wasn't always
a sign when your ear burned that some
body was talking about you.
Speaking about the war the other

It is understood at this time that the

passers by on the jiavenieiit below have
no right to complain if they get a
shower of water and suds over their
heads. The spiders have been driven
eutirely out of Holland, or left in dis
gust; and I do not think I ever saw a
fly anywhere iu the country. No
swallows are allowed to dirty up their
houses or stables, and, strange to say,
one sees no birds about whatever, ex
cept the omnipresent storks, which we
allowed, by special favor, to build their
nests in the chimney tops, ow ing to a
particular veneration w hich the Dutch
have for this bird, likely because it is a
water-fowl, or rather a water or land
fowl; or, like the Dutch themselves, an
amphibious swamp animal.
