Each one had with him •some whiskey in eerie it should be re - Ore& I As they were on their upward Wiay they only once caught a glimpse of the topmost peak of the Fimeteraarhotn. Bolide it rose the Rothhorn, and at a little distance the Oberaarhorn. Over on the opposite side_ they, beheld the snowy summits of the Weieshorn, and to the left of this the mighty Matter - i • - horn.- The whole party except the guides,ito whom the sight was no novel one, butst out into exclamations of wOnder, awe andadnhowever, m, iroatienve saer, the top of the giant ' mountain that they were about to Os - mod was again veiled in clouds, aid they continued on their way, which led to the border of the Me.rjellen See and across the Aletsch Glacier. • Here they began to come to crevasZes in the ice, some of which were nartiew enough to spring over, but others w re 1, so wide that it was necessary for M x to lay over them the ladder he had brought and the narrow plank on top of it In this way the men crosaed easily, and the girls with a little assiet- mete rnansged to get over in eafety. 1 After leaving the glacier they had ttvo l or three hours of pretty har climbing, when they reached the Faulbe rg grotto about sunset. If the girls svere greatly fatigued, they were too prod to shOw it, and insisted upon going out to view the sunset while the fire was being made and the supper cooked. by Mt Iax and the other guides. 1 ' In spite of their enthusiasm for the beauties of nature, they were glad enough to be 'este a lade later around a cheerfutefire, enjoying the hot coffee and smoking dish f meat and potatkee prepared for supp r. 1 They sat awhile fter the meal was over in the please t warmth of the fire, which cast a rud y glow around the rooky chamber, di cussing their plans for the next day's ork, and pomparing notes as to their enpressionsi of what they had already s n; then they pre- pared for, the fe hours of slumber which were to be granted to them. ' d floor The hay which h d been seni up that morning was spreh upon thear of the cave, Max t king care to see that It was thickly laid at the farthest end, which had been •ppropriated to the girls for their resti 'g.place. 1 They ley down j it as they were, in their mountain dre es, and Were boon enjoying the 1101111 sleep which exercise ID the open air, w . en not too excessive, bringto all, but particularliy to the young. They were reused at three 6o'clock by Max, who told them that the offee was ready and they mutt get up,as they _ought to be starting by four o'clodk. They jumped up briskly, and after a hasty toilet announced themselves pre- pared to take their coffee. , At four o'clock they were off. It Was a clear starlight night, but soon a faint gray shade in the sky heralded the ap- proach of daylight. They descended a steep slope to the Viescher Glacier, along which they walked for some time. As they iooked toward the east they caught the first rosy glow on the hori- zon which betokened the rising of the sem. Here they stopped to rest awhile, and enjoy the magnificent specteele af • forded, to their astonished gaze. Never had the beautiful Phoebus Apollo, guiding the fiery horses in his gilded chariot, appeared to more admiring spec- tators than on this occasion. They watched the faint color as it deepened and deepened, until the whole east was one mass of crimson effulgence,and then, as slowly and majestically the glorious orb came up above the horizon, the girls clapped their hands in their delight. In a few moments the topmost peaks of he mountains around them oaught the ship- ing rays, and. their summits were bathed in the brilliant light, The snow and ice ID which they were eneased glistened and sparkled like a sea el diamonds emitting prismatic colon, till the eye was fairly pained by the dangling vision. The lower mountains, which, not being "snow-capped peaks," had presented hitherto a dull gray uniformity 91 aspect, now caught the advancing rays, and were in an instant transfigured by the touch. The whole universe seemed to glow, and, as it were, to melt away into an ocean of golden color. (To be continued.) How To Use The Memory. You have necessarily a great many de- tails to arrange, a great many things to care for, and very little time to do this in. They are things of 110 Vain* in themselves, they are trifles, and yet it is upon the proper uare of these trifles that the whole comfort of a household depends. Do not try to oarry these in your memory. Keep always with yon - 1 am speakingtOT sensible women, and I take it for granted that all inch have attainable pockets -4 little memoran- dum book, dated on each page for the days of the year. If anything ia to be done at a certain time, put it down. when you think of it,on its proper page. You will soon form s habit of looking at your book every morning, and you will find there, already set down for you what you would otherwise have to think of for the day. If you are going to buy things in different shops, arrange from this before you go out the moot conveni- ent order in with:3h to visit them, and then follow it as mechanically as if you were a little child, and had been sent out on errands for some one e110.1 I have met with people who objected to thie plan of writing down things to be done, seeming to have a feeling that to do so would imply some mental incapac- ity on their part. Many persons seem to think that the memory is a very high faeulty of the mind, and mourn- fully presage a failure of their powers because they can no longer remember insignificant dates, names and fleets. Bat this abstract memory, which has for its office to recall quite unconnected and meaningless things, is really one of the lo -west faculties that we have, end one in which we are excelled by many animale—the horse for example There 18 no disgrace in not being ab19 to !re- member names' and dates, or the bers of the houses of our friend.. In fact, we ought to feel ourselves glad that our minds are capable of higher and rnore fruitful contentsBnt, at auy rate with! theme for whofli I 'am writing, the question is not hoi they shall invest unlimited millions, t Iow ! • - ---, they shall make the beet disposition of 1 the very limited means at the r com- mand, While there seems to e only constant increase in the daily an 1 never ceasing demands. Do not try to re- member at all things which you ant to remember only for one day. To do tide is simply to cultivate what is k ownin pedagogies as the "carrying m mory," • the memory of the railroad elo ductor for the faces of the passengers on his train, and that cultivated by th cram- mer. who fit our boys and girls for ex- aminations, Except to assore the con- ductor that he has collected all hi fares, except to enable the children to boast of having "pseud the xamin- ration "—that hi, of having walke 1 aerobe a bridge which leads nowhere n par- ticular—there is nothing gained y such a memory. But Worse than thi there ID no habit which is surer to des roy all capacity for any o LtjflUOUi an useful thinking. To he e the mind he itnally full of the petty Le ails of every day is, as many a mothe f a family orrow- fully knows, to e ome absolutely un- able to read an t Ing but thdaily paper, and to see h reed compelled to much the same 11e s that of the tread- mill horse ; to fe 1 erself shut o t frotn all the broad an li e -giving cur ents ot thought, to find e self at last I unable - to interest or eve o amuse thosi whom she longs to eery, and to see herself growing old befoile ier time. Fo noth- ing cuts the wrind a of age so uiokly and surely as th4 1 oldiog of th mind on the petty trifl f every day noth- ing keeps man r woman young and fresh like broad ni1 deep mental actint- ity. Use, then,y uj little mernor ndum- book—it must be li tle, so that 3 ou can have it with yoi i lways—to ke p safe for you the thin i wbich you -h ve to do for every day, a d save your ind to do what the Crea o intended it o do— to grow and dev lo continually. After all, the life is ore than mea and surely we are boun for another c untry than that in wbii h e now are. This we are apt too o te ['freak:ally to for- get, thoughwe n ay acknowle go it regularly on Sun s. It is not th ork but the worry which kills. Th r is no tonic fir the body like regal r vork of the mind, though this is ui f rtunately not often appreciated or n t allowed uy the physicians to i hem anxious others take their growin aughters.

James Watson was an old bach- elor, and was noted for the neat man- ner in which he kept his house. A few days ago a frieV said in jest to him that Watson oug t to get a wife to take care of such a neat house. The idea seemed to take effect, and after a few words Watson aaid that if his friend would get a good woman and a preacher, and not keep him too long from his corn, he would like aife. The friend came ir here lied told widow, Mrs. Warren, that he had a god husband and home for her.

No Women Allowed There is one place in the world, namely the peninsula oi Athos in the Aegein sea, in European Turkey, where women are unknown and, therefore, where there are no girls born because there are no births of any kind. The population is about 6,060 all monks, forming a kind of monastic republic, consisting of 20 large monasteries be- sides numerous hermitages ando happels. The whole community is governed by an administrative body of four presidents, one styled "First Man of Athos," and a representative body called the Holy Synod, corisieting of 20 members, one from each monastery. They enjoy com- plete autonomy subject to paying the Turkish Government an annual tribute of about £3,500. The monks follow the rule of St. Bazil and lead an ascetic life. restricting their diet to herbe, fruit and fish. They are employed in agricultural, gardening, the care of bees, and the manufacture of amulets, images, cruci- fixes and wooden articles of furniture, which they sol!; while they also reap profits from the numerous viaits of pil- grims. No female even of the lower animals, is permitted to enter the pen- insula.
