A NEW IDEA. What is One of the Greatest Curses of This IntelIe tual Age. From hearth and Ii me. One of the greatest curses of this Intellectual ago is the great lack of propr education of our girls in the practical aftairs of every-day life. They all want to be "schoolmarms," gov ernesses or the wives of rich men. Ilousehold work, which should form the basic principle of our economic life, is shunned by them as somnething degrading. A young woman will stand behind a dry goods counter four teen hours a (lay fo a tauere pittanlce-not enough to clothe her--lose her health, become anmtic and untitted for the perforn'tnce of her natural duties, rather than accept a position as a domestic, where she would have a comlfortable home, good health and become properly fitted for the duties of a wife and mother. Tie ranks of the unfortunate arc filled with shop girls, who, having no place it, spend iucit' evenings, seek the parks and beer gardens, where young men, as it were, lie in wait for them as their natural prey. How many young women can trace their downfall to this misplacement of their talents? Good domestics and wives who are good cooks are so rare that when one is found she is worth her weight in gold. We have schools in which our girls are taught cooking, embroidery, music, painting, school teaching, the la u guages, but positively not one in which is taught the art of house-keep ing. Why? Simply because of the prejudice against it. Yet all girls desire to get married, which is very easy to do, but, it is very, very dili cult to live happily in :narriage; and where the wife has no knowledge of the art of housekeeping, domestic economy, or is a poor cook, be her husband as rich as Cru'sus, her lot will be miserable. Such a woman is totally incompetent to be a u ife ; her proper place is in some garret. ''singing the song of the shirt.'' While a man admires womanly beauty, yet in mar ried life lie admires much more a good square meal, cooked by the hands of his wife or under her immediate direc tions. What we mean by a good square uneal is not simlPly roast, beef and potatoes, witlh a piece of indiges tible pie and a cup of ordinary coflee, but a table covered with snow-white linen, the china and glassware shin ing like so nany mn iniat Ure miiirrors, with bouluets of fresh blooming flow ers in season, andi iapkins soft and fresh from the laudry, not. still' as pasteboard, so that they will slide romal youi*knees. These preparations cost but, a trifle and are the invariable precursor of a good appetite. No dish should be served undecorated, the fish and meat should he sutrrountded with small pieces of either parsiey or beets, carrots or Iui'nips cut by mnolds into various knick-kuack devices, not so inuch for cat inlg as for ornamtneta tion, atnd also as an appetizer.

Tranilated from the Geraes, by J. aahlmann, Columbia, 8.C., for the Daily Record. Automata are called those machines, yr those moving lifeless objects, which Iavo concealed the motive power, and ,onsequently seem to move of their own ccord; when they have the form of man mnd perform human actions then they re also called androides. The motive ower generally consists of springs, hains, weights, which can be easily con ;oaled. Antiquity already knew automata. tho oldest automat was the great phi osopher, Aiohytas of Tarent, 400 years B. C. He made a wooden pigeon, which, as "G ollius" says, could fly. Pausanius suentions a moving wooden eagle, Po ybius a creeping snail, which was made by the celebrated orator and statesman, Demitrius Phalereus, of Athens. In the Lniddle aige the monk Roger Baco made ? wooden head, which could make a mpeech. It is said that the celebrated necromancer and philosopher, Albert the Great, Count of Bollstadt, (1193-1280) made a wooden figure which opened the dooi'for the visitors, saluted and appar ently addressed theni. On one occasion the equally renowned . philosopher, Thomas of Aquino, became so terribly frightened that he struck oft the head of the figure. This mishap caused the manufacturer to exclaim that his work of thirty years had been destroyed. The distinguished mathematician, Job Mul ler, made, among other works, a fly which would move about on the table; and an eagle which was placed on the gate tower at Numberg, and welcomed the Emperor Maximilian II. on his ar rival in that city by moving its wings and head. The Emperor Charles V. found in his old age great pleasure in works of art of this kind. The cele brated Bullman of Numberg made figures which marched to and fro, )at ing the kettle drum and playing the lute. It is said that in the 15t11 century a potter in Rome >roduced a flute player; in 1688 the <rench General, Count Oeuner, made a peafowl, w,ich walked and ate; the missionary Thibaut made for the Emperor of China a walking lion; also a tiger. Among the artists in the 18th century the names of Pierre and Henri Loins Droz (father and son) must be placed in the foremost rank. The older, Pierre, was born in the Swiss canton of Neuf chatel in the year 1721, died 1700; the younger was born 1752, died 1791. Among their works of art mention must be made of a two year old child, who wrote French words, dipping her pen in the ink, and after each word would look at her copy; the drawer also the size of a two year old child; another draftsman, the size of a grown man, could draw with a metallic pencil on parchment very rapidly; sketch followed sketch, and very often they had to furnish him with another Piece of parchment; the piano player, a young girl, who played several pieces, following the music with her head and eyes, and after each perform nnee slhe would rise and how to the audi ence. The younger )roz made a snuff box which contailncd a small bird, three qluarters inch long. Its wings were green and yellow, it sat on a small gold tabe, flapping its little wings, moving its tail a1nd delighted the audience with a mclodious song. The king of Spain was presented by these artists with a wonder ful clock, on which was a bleating sheep, ad a dog continually watching a basket !ilied with fruit, and barking when any one tried to take it oil. Vaucanson rborn it Grenoble 1709, died at Paris 1782) shiowved mi l18 his celeb,ratedl flute play er; it was a figure 53 feet high, sitting on i pedestal, in whlich was concealed thec ueehanism. This figure woul put the late to the lips, moving the fingers rcgu arly, piroducing good anad correct notes, mud played several pieces. Aniothie mutomuatoni playedl on a shepher'd's flute, vich lie held in his left hand, and with' ns right hand beat on a tambourine the ceord. A third work of art finished1 in 141 was a (luck made of1 b)ronzed opper, which flapped its wings. stretch ng out its neck to eat the corn scattered >efore her, and digesting its food. The nventor of this work of art was apploint d imspector of the silk manufactories at iyons, and the manufactureis threatened 0 stone him, fearing their sales woul >e greatly dliminishied. The inspector, learing of this threat, made in retalia :oi thue figure of an ass weaving cloth in 'ariegated colors. Tis machine coiu :amned innumerable chains, springs, ever:s, etce. Ab out the samte time the ihungarian, W\olganIg, borni in F.renburg 1734, (liedi 181, created the greatest sensation with us wondlerful speaking; and chess ma Ahine. The first was invenltedl in 1778, mad consistedl of a woodiee box 1 by :3 Ecet, mi which, b)y nmen or a p)air of >)ellows and( several springs, the voice of i chil was imitate1. Several machines have been nmade by Mical, Kratzunstein, [Poseh, but generally with less success. T he wonderful chess macline, which was showyn to the Emupress Maria I'hesesa im 1769, consisted of a figure, hiatural size, dlressedl in the T'uirkishu cos unme, who was sitting before a table 3 >y 2 '.feet put on rollers. This machine >layed chess with expierts, and ahnost dlways won, at whtich the inventor was dways piresent; andt whether lhe dlirected1 lie play, or' a person was concealed in he machine, has niever beenu satisfactori .y exp lained, as no dlirect cornmunica mn1 lad been dletected. Theli in'vento)r vas always willling to show his wonde(rful nachine (when not performing), wvhich onsisted of a number of chains, wheels, evers and springs.. The opimion pre -all that magnetism was the motive iowor, but this theory wats soon ex >lodled. This imachinie was on exhibition a 1812 at Mailand, 1819 ini London and 822 ini Paris. Gre*(at excitement was produced b'y btaillardet, a Swiss, ini Lonidoni, who, ho(wed aL wooden0 female figure, breath uug naturally, moving her head, eyes anud >d(y, anid playing eighteen different icces on the iantuo. Menution must lbe muadle of a vase, prc ented by Frizard of JBoil to Bonaparte, being then first consul), which, whien c>uchied, by a spring would turni f.o a aim tree, uder whose shades a shep rdless waIs spinning.

CnUAUQ, October 19.-As about 100 dis charged Pinkerton men were on their way to the city to-day in cars from the stock yards, they were hooted and stoned by a crowd of strikers near Fortieth street. One of them, in exasperation, finally fired his Winchester Into the crowd through a car window, mortally wounding Dennis Hog ley, a well-to.do teamster. Word was immediately sent to the Chi eago atthorlties, and upon the arrival of the train here the entire lot of Pinkerton men, together with some 40 non-union workmen who were also on the train, were arrested and locked up in the IIarrison street station. From later accounts it appears that the shooting was uut confined to one man, but that Ill the Pinkerton men joined in the fusilade. When the train passed throuigh a crowd at Ilalstead street, the men were again greeted with jeers, when a large. stout man, with a ::,d lace and clothed in a Pinkerton tniforn, stepped out on the back platform and fired his revolver inio the crowd. This was the sinal for a gen eral volley, and 1i or 20 1 inkerton m,en began to lire their rifles from the car win dows. Fully 80 shots were tired. Fenes and shanties alon' the track were marked with bullets. Serious trouble is feared, as the crowds are furious at the shooting and vow vengeance. 'lhe Law of Iho onl. T'URN TO TIl i- Routtr.--Thie mo.st impor tant law of the road is, that when two Per sons in vehicles coming from uppl.oite di rections are about to meet, each sl:Ill reasonably bear to the right of the middl . or traveled portion of the road, so that they cau pass each other without inter ference, A traveler is not re<quired to ketp on the right side of the road all the tiutu he can drive where he pleases or where the going is best, so long as lie turns to the right when he neets another vehile. If the middle atid usually traveled portioti of the road is very muddy, and for this or any other reason persons are traveling along tlie side of the road, then the one who is on I h: left side of the ro:al is in iluty buuil to turn out. In Massachusetts it was held that when the part of the road which is wrought for traveling is tidden by snow, and a path is beatet and traveled on the side of the wrought path, pcr sons meeting on such side path are each required to trive their vehicles to the right of the middle of it. It should, howe\ er, be remembered that this law of tlie ror.d is not an absolute and inflexible one. ir cunstances may arise which would jus'ify a deviation from it, iand when they do art e, a traveler cannot stick blindly to the law, andl then claim diauuges if he is injured. Ii the crowded streets of a umetroptli drivers are required to excrcise very giret care, and when the liigh iegiee of care lictates a departite fromnr this l:lw of the road then it is not only justiliable, bit a failure to observe it might cut olf one'5 right to recover damages if lie is in jurd. This turning to tlie right is just. the olp1o:itt of that in England, which) retquire- all drivers to turn to the left. ''ht rule of turning in Engltnd is based on long-hot ored custom; our rule is estabilihed lby stiat mite in several State.- of the Ution.
