" I only tell yon this," the poor little wo- man adJed with a pajnfnl flush, because every friend and acquaintance I have con- stantly overrate me. I want some one to know me aa I am, and I un a jrery wicked woman." " You haven't come to be outwardly pro- fane yet, I suppose " I inquired in a tone of facetiousness that evidently wounded her sensitive spirit, for she said quickly " Oh, please don't make light of it. It is desperate business with me, I assure you. " "I have no intention of making light of it, " I replied. ' ' On the contrary, I consider it a very serious matter, and if you go on as you are going now, you will not only want to swear, but you will swear. " "If I go on as I am going now " my friend repeated, a look of wonderment on her sweet face, " I don't know what you mean; but I am sure of this, that if I ever give utterance to the awful things that come into my head, I shall not be in possession of my senses." " To clothe those thoughts with words would prove you insane. If that is the case, what kind of a mental condition can you be in to think such thoughts " " That I can think such dreadful things proves that there is a mdral s^w loose, it seems to me," was the reply, made with the manner of one who had evidently thought the subject out to her satisfaction. The condition of this woman was so an- alagous to that of another friend which had come immediately under my dbservation, that I thought best to tell her the story. This friend had been a model house-keep- er for twenty years. No better wife, a more conscientous mother, could have been found in the whole Province. She was neatness and thrift personified. Her house, large, roomy and comfortable was presided over exclusively by herself. She had done all the cooking for her family, attended to the milk of a dozen cows, made the butter, and washed all the dishes, and it was on this latter rock that her domestic craft was dashed and almost wrecked. There came to this woman at last a time when she was compelled to force herself to the perform- ance of these various duties Then she scourged herself and called it laziness anp went on. After a while she was attacked by a low fever which the country doctor did not understand, and out of which she wrestled long before she was really able to sit up. Her husband was amply able to pay for com- petent domestic assistance, but as she had al- ways chosen to do everything herself, it never entered his head to propose it, and this be- came a deep rooted grievance. She could not overcome the abnormal sensitiveness which was the direct result of long years of over-work and suffering, and so a coldness sprang up between husband and wife, which on her part developed into positive hatred. On the subject of washing dishes this woman became a confirmed monamaniac. She could drag herself about and make the bed, and cook the dinner but the dishes drove her wild. One day her husband ran to a neighbor with the astonishing news that she had at last gone stark, staring mad. The lady followed him home and foimd this once model house-keeper standing by the kitchen sink, laughing hysteri- cally, and surrounded by mashed crockery of every description. As they entered, a sugar-bowl went slam-bang against the cup- board door, followed by a couple of hand- some goblets, evidently the last of a new dozen. " There," she said to her husband, " now, go and buy some new dishes, and then hire somebody to wash 'em. As long as I live I will never wash another one." Now, horrible as this scene certainly was, and suggestive of straight-jackets and pad- ded rooms, the fact really was after all that this patient had at last attained to sanity. This statement should have been made years before. It could then have been done in a calmer spirit, and with much less expense. Now, it so happened, that the neighbor who had been summoned to this crock- ery raid was a woman of intelligence and experience, and through her influ- ence the sufferer was taken from her home and placed under the care of a physician who was competent to deal with every form of nervous misery. With rest and judicious treatment, she entirely re- covered. For the first two weeks she was sure that she could never see a dish without a desire to smash it. At the end of a month she could not understand how she could ever have been guilly of such conduct. Then came a period of remorse for her treatmoit of her husband, and other symptoms inci- dental to the restoration of a normal condi- tion. It took six months to pad these bare and irritated nerves, and six more to attain to the physical strength which would make it safe for her to attempt the care of her much simplified housekeeping. But she re- turned to ner home a wiser woman, and ha^ since been a great comfort and help to other exhausted and overworked women. " And you think my state as dangerous as that " my companion inquired aft^ listte- ing with great interest to the storj. " Fully," I anawered. " But what am I to do " " Stop before it is too late." "Stop what?" " You have irtyitatJona oat fora dLuier party next week. Does the anticipation of it give you pleasure or the reverse " " If I were to talk » ffeA, I cosid never make you understand how I loathe the -thought of it." " Yon are Hie of the chief managers of tiie orphan asylum fair. Do yon nel en- thusiastic about that job?" " Oh, yon are almost cmel," my ctnn- panion respooideii with a quiver-if her aensi- tivelip. "What if I. were to tell yon ih0t I hate the sig^t and soand of that arpbaa asylum, and that KHnethnee I feel as if I would hardly care what became of the ar- ^laoaiflwoe not obliged tp see Hkem again?" yoor real, lame natare " Oh, I hope it ia." "How about your own children?" " Their pmocipnt fun dnvea ioa.j^gtt*c^^ wifh my fiealih. I eat and sleep faiiffiL In fact, the only place where I am truly comfortable is in the bed with mjy door lo^ed. I never pass the bed, or Tocker or lounge that I do not want to throw my- elf down and close my eyes. To have some one rap at my door after I have grown a little quiet puts such thoughts and words into my head that thm I am afraid to be alrnie. I tell you it is a questiott of morals and not of health. It is total depravity. " These symptoms are all danger signals. Months and months ago this woman went to the end of her tether. All that has been done since has been accompUshed by the crueluseof irritated and exhausted nerves. She has now only half a hand, so to speak, on the helm. Her will is no longer strong enough to eliminate her tiioughts, and every day under the present regime will find her less and less able to put a curb upon the feelings and passions which she so depre- cates. More than one good woman has wanted to swear, and concealed the fact for years, but ultimately used evety bad word she ever thought of within the walls of a lunatic asylum. It was possible for this pa- tient to have the best medical advice and follow it. She needed neither a confessor nor a minister, but a. wise physician, a com- plete change, and rest for body and soul. When will women, intelligent and sensible in all other matters, come to understand the difference between illness and laziness, fever exhaustion and moral depravity OU A TISiT TO THE "OLD COUNTEY." BY JOBDf IIIBIE, TORONTO. Across the wide Atlantic sea Our steamer speeds her way. Great billows rolling grand aaid free Rest not by night or day.

A troop of these animala m a boutli American forest came one day to a stream which waa toe wide for them to leap across. They cliinbed'a high tree, where the farst moiiey selected a suitable branch, womjl, his long, powerfid taal aboat^it^ and let tm-i «elf hang headlong downwiai^i. The secomt monkey running down the body of the StM, wound his tail aoont its neck and shoulders, and let himseK hang headlong dowiiward. A third and a fourth added themselves in suc- cession, and others after them, till the chain reached the gro«ad. Then *e lowest mon- key, by striking his hands on the earth, set the living pendulumin motion, increased this motion by striking again at each oscil- lation, till it swung so far across the stream that he was able to seize a branch of a tree on, the other side. The line of monkeys now constituted a bridge, by which the re- mainder of the troop quickly passed over. Then the monkey whi (not wJio as the people write it) had been the first volunteer in this engineer corps, unwound his tail from the branch and let go. What ' had be- fore been the top of the penduliiin was now the bottom it swung across the stream, and 4issolved into its original el9mente,-and the whole troop went chattering oil their way. This took place before the appearance of man on the earth, and the long-tailed mon- keys have been building such bridges ever since. Between that primitive bridge of monkeys and the last and greatest of all bridges ever undertaken â€" the suspension bridge over East River connecting New York ixnd Brooklyn â€" ^there is apparently a wide dis- crepancy yet the two are constructed on the same principal. The first bridge recorded in history was built over the Euphrates at Babylon, in the reign of Queen Nitocris. The course of the river was turned, and its bed lay dry, till the foundations were built. The arches were of immense hewn stones, clamped to- gether with iron, and the whole bridge was roofed over. It was thirty feet wide, and ovcsr six hundred feet long. No lemnantof this great bridge has been discovered in modem times. By a bridge of boata nearly a mile long Xerxes crossed the Hellespont near Abydos, Mdth his immense army, on his expedition against Greece. A century and a half later (334 B. c), Alexander crossed in the opposite direction, at nearly the same point, and by the same means, to invade Asia. Bridges of boats, sailed pontoon bridges, are in com- mon use for movements of armies. A row (^ boats is anchored in the stream, placed at regular distances apart and stretchiiig from bank to bank. The prows all point up stream. Beams are laid across from boat to boat, and on these beams a flooring is laid. Besides those used by armies, there aie a few permanent bridges of boats. The most celebrated now in existence is that across the Rhine at Cologne. There was once a floating bridge across the River Seine, at Rouen, which was about eight hundred feet long, and was paved with stones, like a street. It was moored with immense chains, and rose and fell with the tide. But it cost a great deal of money to keep it in repair, and some time in the last century it was abandoned. The greatest and most famous of all floating bridges was that built by the Roman Emper- or Caligula, in a. D. 39. An immense num- ber of boats were anch(»ed in the bays of Baiap apd Puteoli, in twp lines, in the form of a crescent, over three miles long, a flooring of planks was laid upon them, and fresh water was conveyed to them by pipes from the shore. When all was ready, tiie £mperor, accom- panied by his court and a throng of specta- tors, rode in solemn procession from one end of the bridge to the other. He was clothed in costly robes adorned with gold and pearls, and wore Alexander's breastplate and a civil crown. Atevening the whole bridge was il- luminated with torches and lanterns, the Caligula boasted that he had turned the night into day, as well as the sea into land." The whole court slept that night in the houses on tiie bridge. Next day there was anoth^ procession, in which Caligula rode in ai triumphal chariot, followed by a train bf other chaiiots. The insane emi)eror then ' Inade ati oration in praise^ fiis work, and j jroiiiidupthe festivities by^dering a large ' number of the spectators to be throwm into ' the sea. Wooden bridges are of course not so dur- able as those of stone or iron, and are gener- ally less important. Julius Caesar built a famous one across the Rhine when he invad- ed Germany. One of the most famous bridges in oiir country was that across the gorge of Gen- esw River at Portagf, N. Y., erected in 1861-52. It was the larges^t wooden bridge in the world, and to build it required all the avulable timber that grew on tiie two hun- dred and five acres of heavily timbered land. Its length was eight hundred fdet, its height i above the water two hundred and thii^- It was a vast network of square ,„„,„ its own weii^t.

When thia became apparent, the bnUdere drew ereat rocks nptm the bridge, and placed ihem over the point of the ardi, to prevent it from being forced up. But it was i^ in vain. The bridge had been warranted fot g^ yaac and when it had stood jiut one year and one day, the arch finally gave way, and the whole tibing mshed down to ruin. A gentlemen who was driving across it wiien it began to fall, whipped up his horse and bar^ escaped. This took phioe about fifty years ago, jl» l7§7,a,^onde?|id .woo^^Wdge was and ninety-three feet, and the othw one hundred and seventy -two feet. Where they met their ends rested on a stone pier. This bridge did not poeseM the advantage of the one at Portage, described above; and when some of the bottom timbers rotted, it was necessary to lift Hhe'Wiiole stmcture with jack-screws, before new ones could be put in. The bridge was Jbumed by the French army, in 1799. j, • There are many fine wooden bndges m the United States, but hone perhaps which are so feunons or curious as to claim par- ticular description here. One of the finest is the railway' bridge over Susquehanna River at Havre; de Grace. It is three thou- sand two hundred and seventy-one feet long, and has twelve spans. The longest bridge in the world is near .Bazek, in Hungary. It crosses the River Drave and the marshes that lie on each side of it, a few miles from its mouth in ibe Danube. It is of wood, with stone piers, snd was built in 1566, to be used by the Turkish armies entering Hungary. Theare is nothing remarkable about it except its length, eight miles. (to be continukd.) Whistliiigraad WMstlers. If a boy is allowed to whistle it will turn his attention in a great degree from the desire to become thepoissesso^of a drum, and if pa- ternal firmness be added, he can be kept sa- tisfied without one unti 1 he gets to be 16 years old, when he will, strike the cornet period. Shakspeare was well acqiiainted with the art. He makes Othello say concerning Des- demona " If I do but prove her falw, I'll whistle her off and let her down the wind a prey to fortune, e'en though her very cries were my dead heart-strings." Negroes are the best whistlers in the worl£ Frequently one hears a colored im-. provisatore whistung the quaintest and sweetest melodies, aim with the colored males in general whistling comes as natural as grunt- ing does to a hog. Men whistle when they are happy," and they whistle when they are sad. When you see a carpenter or a liouse-painter pushing the plane or slapping on the paint and whist- ling a lively air a|; the same time, set him down as a man who pays his debts, is cheer- ful at home and never whips his children. When a man is sad he whistles in a doleful tone. Nine times out of ten he won't choose a dismal air, but he will whistle a lively tune, a hornpipe or a negro minstrel end song. And he will draw the melody in and out between his lips in a way to draw tears from all listen- ers. Sometimes a man accomplishes the same result when he is cheerful and trying to whistle real good. Girls in geueral whistle in a sort of jerky, disconnected, jim-jam sort of way, and groan mildly between the tones. They'd tter let whistling alone. whde It saves uC7*^{ ofmuchof thoSiJ"itft.^ ?»pkin that pmTSI' V^Sj* ^« «'»*«* *rz*s*itT ^ater should be T* «»ta4 knowsoweUhowteAT**! should be used iTS^J*. to give them a new fl,?^i« PoB«h of the 5. t^^r* use any starch at aU tf tj!"" », when quite danip^»i*« iH until thoroughly L ** P*H n^ wnue stui damp, reneftiT" " tiki snapping procS^'^^Htie.^J' strength will pen„J'pa»Q«^ entirely dry on the linell?""*^ «1 x^ XX. «,oie imen tlmti* ^^ii." not impossible to irn„ *^^ taken Vs to how T °"*^ ' first place, itnottf-^^' outof shape by ha«^^^l«,, Pm. or by beingSJ^».. post, making a projS^ "'« ^i benexttoLp^Se^'*/«ertU,l wettmg the cloth aU over ^T.""' been thoroughly shaken oiniT'" a straight, firm line^Tal ""ii' pins are clean and thol;, " shouRneverbeaUowdtwr" very high wind.

This The Shortening Days. The amateur astrononier will find a source of unfailing interest in observing the ap- parent movements of ° tiie sun. During October the days continue to lessen rapidly. On the 1st the s^ rose at 5:41 a. m. and set at 5:26 p. m., m^h^g the length of the day 11 hours 45 minutes, On -the Slst.the sun rises at 6:17 a. m; and' sets at 4:38 p. m., making the leqgth pf the day 10 hours 31 minutes. The amount of the day's decrease in October is therefore 1 hour 24 minutes. Thus on the last; day of the mouth the days are nearly an hour a*id a half shorter than they were at its 6mmcncement. It is not strange that the remark is often madies "How short the days are " The sun's position in the heavens gives another indi- cation of the season's a|vanoe. Observers will readily note that the sunrise and sunset points seem to move rapidljr sotathward. On the 1st tiie sun's, declination was 3° 21' south; on the 31st is is 14* 16' south. The sun therefore advances 10° flS'ubn his soutiiem course during the month. The further the sun moves to the ibtXk ihe shorter is tiie circuit he makes in th9 heavens- and the less is his meridian altitude. The days will de- crease, the sunrise and sunset points move south, and the s^^n wiUij^Mi ^y be lower in- the heave^ until the Winter solstice, when the son reached his extreme southern declination and ^nrns hiiTjaof^ slowly north- ward.
