LAURENS, S. (\, Cet. 19,1887. AMONG THE SIBERIAN NOMA09. A Nation of Shepherd* f?n<l Cattle llrrrd. ern- Klr|ftl<*Ml on th? Marrh. Tito Karn-Kirgbeso are essentially a nation of shepherds and breeders of CoUle, and think it i; a "como down" in life \vbe:i eoutiH'lt'.il to resort to Mdt Iel m. cupe. i. ms. Tliej are not so rich ?a . KM ir brethren ill tito plains. Very few < ti as immy aa 2.00U hones <T 3,000 heep. Al.-? they hive fewer camels; but. on the other l and. |toase*8 an excel? lent breed of oxen for traversing the mountains. Tin ir cowa are large, but do '? not yield much milk. Y;:Ls are kept by I hon i instead. Their cattle breeding claims f -.r less lalor than agriculture, but it is i?xjM**"cd to great ri-ks. For the sup I rt of a nomad family for a year are required eleven head of large and tell of BUiall cattle, und to provide bay for the wintercoiii.umption even of thi. number exceeds the working |?ower of one house hokl. I v. as much interested to see ?.onie of ; \)w Kirghese 1 n the march. Tlieir wan ?dering* are thus conducted. When tho (iSAlUru ill a neighlxirhood ia eaten, ono or two of the young tuen are scut to ?elect a spot for another encampment, and to clean out ll>f" wi lls. This done, the women pack tin- tents and the men fi rm tho cattle in droves, The camp is ready und starts before daw n, the g<x>d women of the family riding in front. I met i ne old Indy iii this honorable posi tion, mounted astride a bullock and look ing anything but graceful. After her came the < liier women, variously mounted on thu b j? of carpets, teakettles, tel Ls, et . the whrle liebig made to wear, ns f:,r as possible, a festive aspect, loo length of aatagc is from thirteen to Seventeen mires, and the aul traverses ubout twenty-five miles in twenty-four hours. On arriving nt tho place of encamp ment it is tlie oflice of thc wife to put up the tent. I chanced to see a wor<yin be- 1 gin to do so, and would not stir from tho si?ot till I had witnessed the whole opera tion. The principal parts of a kibitka or tent aro largo pitees of felt to cover a framework that consists of lintel and sido posts for a door, and pieces of trellis work surmounted by jxilos that meet in the center. On this trellis work are sus |>C?dcd arms, clothes. l>ags. basins, bar- j ness nnd cooking utensils. Not that there ia a large variety, however, of tho last, I for most of the cooking is done ina largo open saucepan that stand-) on a trinod 1 over thu lire in the middle of ?ic tent. Crockery ware is not abundant, t?ing of hazardous carriage, and metal goods are not cheap, wi that leather bas to do duty not only for making Uglies (specially those for carrying koumiss), but alao pails, sonic of which ure furnished with . a spout. I met with no small saucepans { .or teakettles of English shape, their place liebig supplied by kurgnns or water . ewers, somewhat resembling ft coffeepot. Hound thu walls of the tent uro piled boxes, saddles, rug? and halos of carpet, i against which the occupants lean, the head of tho household sitting opposite the door, and in front of him the wife in nt teiidf.ijCCi . T was honored w ith tm invitation to dine in ono of tlioso tents, tho dishes being put lieforo us accortiihg to our> rank. I beard nothing of grace lieforo moat, but I never taw anything to exceed tho alacrity with which tho dishes wore cleared. Hands Were knives and fingers were forks. Hie meat being torn from tho bones as by the teeth <4 hungry dogs. It ls considered jxdito for a Kirghese su jx rior to take a handful of pieces of ment r.nd stnlT them inlo tlie mouth of an in ferior guest, AU ??k-ganry I saw practiced .on another, 1nit from which, mercifully, I myself was excused.- Dr. Henry I^ans .dell bl Ilarpor's Magazine. ?Snprrst Itlon? About Wood Demon*. From tho TyrwA, from Switzerland, from Germany cr from Brittany, come veil ascertained accounts of the popular belief in certain wild spirits of thu wood, who are painted in all tho most frightful simpes th? imagination can suggest, anil j:ro characterized by their delight in every possible form of tn: i . valence. They kidnap and devenir children, lie witch the cattle, and lead men to kiso their way in tho forest. They can na cunio ?ny size, from tho most (linunutivta to tho most gigantic; nor is any form of bird or beast ail impossible inqwrsonation of them. The Bkonguian, thc forest i-pirit of Sweden, is like a man, but tall ns thc highest tree; ho decoys men into the wood, Olid, when they have hopelessly lost their way, mid begin to weep for fear. leaves them with mocking laughter. The conception is well nigh identical with that found among tho natives of the forests of Brazil, showing with what Uni formity similar conditions produce similar < fleets on tho human mind. But the Hussion spirits LjeHohl (from a 1'olisb wn d foi ,vood) aro oven moro dgnlficnnts ft r not . uly nro tho tr m.I diabolical at tributes assigned to them, such ar the leading of men astray or tho sending to them of sickness, but also tho conven tional diabolical features. Tlieir bodies nro after thc human pattern, hut they have the cars mid horns of goats, their feet aro cloven, mid their fingers end in claws. Tho Russian ve? ?od spirit is, in fact, tho devil of medieval imagination and nothing else.-Gentlemans Maga zine, Time Flin* ftwlftlr. An old grandma with a small boy boarded a Grat lot nvenuo car the othe r day, and tho collector rang tlie register twice. "What's that for?" rho asked. "That's 9 o'clock," answered the boy.
