Table Talk, By thin time, dear girls, you have prob. ably Dome to the oonolueion that only prosy advice can come from my pen, so now we Will talk of something pleasant. I granted you at the start that the life of a work- ing farmer's family must be a hard one. but there are few country Ririe who got all the pleasure possible out of their lives, When T lived on a farm I was the only farmer's daughter for miles around who was heretic enough to ride horseback True my horse did not always have the proper gait for a lady's saddle horse, and for many years the luxury of a side saddle was unknown to me, but a blanket tightly strapped on the baok of my Buoepholas, did duty fora saddle and I acquired an ease and freedom of motion that one does not always get at a riding sohool. When at the age of fourteen, I taught a country school, my firet Prdiy earned five dcllare was invested iii eoond hand side saddle, If you do not rifle you do not know how muoh health and pleasure yon are missing. Let no consideration of the want of a habit, deter you from making the experiment. A pair of your big brother's seoond best pantaloon's, an old, water -proof skirt, your beet fitting waist and a little round nap er tightly fitting bat of any kind, and you may have as much enjoyment as you enuld in a thirty dollar tailor-made habit. Be. gin with the gentlest horse in your father's stable, unless you are naturally fearless. Sit well and firmly, keeping your faoe so that a line drawn from your . nose would Dome exaotly between the horse's ears. Go slowly at first untll you can ride at a walk- ing paoe without allowing your body to away with every motion of the horse. *There is nothing more graoeful than a lady on horseback if she knows how to ride, and nothing so awkward if she sits as If she were about to fall off and bounces up and down from her saddle, Try to sit as if you were a part of the animal, It is not fair tor the boys on a farm to have all the fun. I always vigorously disputed with my brothers, the privilege of taking the horses to be ahod, and even of driving the cows to pasture on horsebaok, this, how- ever, when I was very young. If you do not like the farm and are de- termined at all events to get away from it, try to think out some original path in life for yourself. The beaten tracks are over- run with busy feet. The wife of a once wealthy merchant being in reduced oircum- etanoes, went to a friend to ask her advice as to how she could best gain a livelihood. " What is the thing that you can best do ?" asked the friend. "Make chicken pies," said the poor lady with an attempt at a cheerful laugh. " lhen," ?aid her friend, " make chicken pies." She accordingly bought a number of small earthen dished, and begun In a small way her novel trade. At firet these were sold through the " Woman's Exchange," but as she became known they were ordered directly from her, and as they were delicious and reasonable in price she was soon obliged to enlarge her establishment. Another laity ;the daughter of a well- known metropolitan journalist, had a natur- al liking and aptitude for cooking fancy dishes. One of her specialties was a new combination for Charlotte Reese, for which she used cream purchased directly country friend instead of the abominable fiillingmade of the whites of limed eggs, used in most bakeriee. They were to delicious that a hotel man who heard of them, glad to find a new source of profit for himself and pleasure for his guests, ask- ed her to make them for his establiehment, She is now working three hours a day, and with the aseistapce of a maid is making more money ti• her father. The moral of this fa "Le.o do at least one thing well," A writer of intelligence and observation once said, " I wish 1 cnuld impress it upon the minds of girls that the chief end of woman is not to marry young." I would like to add that the chief end is not marry- ing at any ave. At twenty few girls would think of marrying the man they would gladly have married at six seen. As a wo- man grows older her mind and her know- ledge of the world inoreaots, and she knows better than to judge a man merely by ep• pearances. She learns that a man in society and a man at home are two widely different beings. Walt until you have passed the peanut and taffy stage before you choose a partner for life.

TUE REMNANT OF A ONCE POWER- FUL NATION. • BY ANNIE L. JAQIf, If any readers have been to Montreal they would most likely see on the right hand shore oppoelteLaobino the straggling village of Caugnawaga, where live the remnant of the onoe powerful Iroquois, who were In the early days of the settlement of this country a terror to the white inhabitants, as you can read in the history of those times. So fierce they were, so cruel and teraoberous, one scarcely believe them the tame pee- ple, You could hardly fail to see some of them, for the men live by rafting, or act as pilots to the steamers that go down the rapids at Lachine. The chief among, the pilots is Aientonni—better. known as "Big John,"—who is quite vain in staid Indian fashion of his notoriety, and would intro- dnoe himself to you as "Me Big John, all folk know me ;" whioh words he used to me enc day when he oame to my home, whioh 1e only five miles away. The village of Caag- nawaga is within sight of the beautiful Mount Royal, after whioh the city at its feet was named, and no where else oan be seen to such advantage the extremes of oiv- illzation, and the difference whioh cultiva- tion makes in the human race. The reser• vation or land set apart by government as their own is poorly oultivated ; there is a river frontage of seven miles, and the soil though rough and stony would bear good oropa if properly oared for. In the village a stranger visiting the country mince the whitewash and appearance of thrift that is so attraotive In the poorest hut of the French Canadian habitant. The houses have a quaint and ancient appearance, while in the open doorway during fine weather the women are seen at their beadwork, very rarely at domestic work of any other sort. The village is one long street, and the church, whioh aims at a Greoian architec- ture, is built on the bank of the river and contains some articles of historic interest. Tha bell that calla together the worship - pare was preeonted by George Third, and over the altar is a fine piotare of St. Louie of France, given to this church by Charles Tenth. There Is also a gilt chalice, the gift of the ex -Empress Eugenie in her palmy days, and in the sacristy is a nape of cloth of gold, presented by Napol- eon. The church service la held in the Iroquois language, and the singing la a wild, weird ohant that cannot be described. Taking a party of American friends there once, thg priest was found busy with a class of little girls preparing for first communion by teaching them the catoohiam in this very strange tongue, and their quick answers, and his profound devotion to duty, Impress- ed the visitors very much. It is interesting to know that there dusky aborigines have a saint whose picture hangs on• the walls of the church dressed in the gay trappings so becoming to her race. Her name is given to us as Teegakwlta, and she wee baptie d as a Christian on Eyster day, 1670. The vil- age echeolhouee is said to be the oldest build- ing in the Dominion of Canada. It was once the residence of the military com- maader, and the Conte De Frontenac, whom you know well by the history, came here sometimes during his eventful career. Of course, you remember, too, the historian Pere Charlevoix, and it is interesting to see the room he used, still undisturbed, the pictures, deek and books still there, as when he wrote those famous lettere to the Duchene De Lesqurerea in 1730. For the last three years the Indiana have attempted to improve their condition by holding a /air on the common below the village, The little white tents gleamed in the autumn sunshine as I went on to the grounds, and the faces of the natives shone with delight, while I could only think of that veree the beloved Whittier wrote: " Wild as the fruits he scorned to till - These vales the idle Indian trod, Nor knew the glad creative skill— The joy of him who toile with God." The vegetables were good, and I heard an old farmer, whose accent told that he was Sootob, remark—" No a bad show o' grain," as he • passed the barley and oats and beans in the agrioultural tent. A pathetic display of apples and grapes made me with that hortioniture was more fully devel- oped, but the wildapples are so plentiful they have not yet felt the. need of improved varieties. In one tent was beautiful bead- work, and m000asins so finely stitched as to appear a work of art, snow shoes and la- crosse sticks, and the fanoy Indian baskets, with mats of corn husks, and other wares gave evidence of industry in their own pre culler workmanship ; while the preserves and butter, fancy dressmaking, and goad white bread showed creditable efforts in the art of civilized housekeeping. There were prizes for the handsomest papoose, and it was a funny sight to see the room of babies of all ages strapped on boards, whioh is the Indian cradle. Some of them were tastefully arranged at the head piece that projects oyes the top, and in the front of whioh is a curtain of lace with a valance of blue or pink 'silk. The board can stand against the wall or hang up in a tree aa in the rhyme "When the wind blows The cradle shall rook." And really the round -eyed, and ohubby, dusky -faced babies seemed the most con• tented in the world. Any one who went to look at the cattle exon found a eouroo of amusement, and I followed the crowd to investigate the Gauss of mirth.

These mletakee were dun to the fact that the exhibitors had not a sufiioient knowledge of English to arrange thea correctly, but it was of course amus- ing to the lookers-on.

There Is truly nothing new under the e It now appears that Pasteur's discovery which certain germs which produce ape diseases are passed through animal tis and; are thereby rendered less harmfal that by inoculation they would aot as a phylaotic, was not unknown in the Mi Ages ; but in those times the peieone were passed through the body of animals to inj en- eify their virulence. Modern chemists ,are just beginning to disoover the composition of the famous Naples water. This was a colorless liquid, indistinguishable from ordinary water, but a few drops of which were fatal. A woman named To- phatia is said to have murdered 600 persona with this Naples water. It is now found to be a preparation of arsenic, whioh being passed through diseased animal tisane, be- came as deadly as the poison of a snake. The poisoning so common In Italy and France several generations ago, was done by agents that became deadly after being passed through the bodies of animals or men.

Council of the most experienoed medical men.

Many who Buffer from these terrible diseases contract them innocently. Why any medical man intent on doing good, and alleviating suffering, should shun such cases, we cannot imagine. Why any one should consider it otherwise than moat honorable to Duro the worst cases of these disease& We cannot understand ; and yet of all the other maladies which afflict mankind there are probably none about which physicians in gen- eral practice know so little. Wo fully agree with the celebrated Dr Dartholow, who says, "I think it a reproach to our profession that this subject has been Made of unscrumpi 0 a_p etenderrs. indifferent*, ocauso he subject is ditsa�•. greeable, oonipetent physicians are loath to be concerned with it. The same unnecessary' fastidiousness causes the treatment of this malady to bo avoided n private practice." We shall, therefore, continue, as heretofore to treat with our best conslderation, a7Tmmpathy�, and skill, all applicants who are Suf- fering from any ofthese delicate diseases.
