The wild form produces seed, and grows in Cochin Chins, the Philip- pines, Ceylon and Khasia. Like most other large tropical fruits, it no doubt owes its original development to the pelective notion of monkeys, hornbills, parrots, and other big fruit-eaters ; and it shares with 811 fruits of similar origin one curious tropical peculiarity. Most nothern berries, like the strawberry, the raspberry. the currant and the blackberry, developed by the selective action of small northren birds, can be popped at once into the mouth and eaten whole ; they have no tough outer rind or defensive covering of any sort. But big tropical fruit, which lay them- selves out for the service large birds or monkeys, have always hard outer coats, because they oould only be injured by smaller animals, who would eat the pulp without helping in the dispersion of the useful seeds, the one object really held in view by the mother plant. Often, as in the ease of the orange, the rind even contains a bitter, nauseous, or pugent jnice, whilaat times, as in the pineapple, the prickly pear. the sweet-sop, and the cherimoyer, the entire fruit is covered with sharp pro- jeotions, stinging hairs, or knobby pro- tuberances, on purpose to warn off the unauthorized depredator. It was this line of defense that gave the banans in tho first instance ite thick yellow skin; and looking at the maiter from the epioure’s point of view, one may see roughly that all tropical fruits have to be skinned before they can be eaten. They are all adapted for being cut up with a knife and fork, or dug out with a spoon, on a civilized desert-plate. As for the most delicious of Indian fruits, the mango, it has been well said that The custom of touching glasses prior to drinking healths is common in Eng. land and other countries, and especially in Germany. It is curious to trace how this custom has prevailed, and still exists, even among savage tribes. To drink out of the same cup, and to eat off the same plate, was one of the ways in which the ancients celebrated a marriage, and the wedding feast continues to be not the least important of the marriage | ceremonies, to the present day. | The Indians of Brazil retain a ous. tom of drinking together a little brandy, 8s a sign that the marriage was ocon~ cluded. In China similar customs are met with, In the medimeval banquets of Germany it was the custom to pass a ‘loving joup” from hand to hand, but this | gradually necessitated that the oup | should be of enormous size, and thus | smaller cups or glasses were adopted, and the old custom was conformed to by the drinkers touching their glasses be- fore drinking. | The ceremony attending the passing | and drinking out of the ‘loving cup,” | a8 practised at our great city festivals, | and at some of onr college halls, is said | to have arisen from the assassination of | King Edward. It was then the custom | of the Anglo-Saxons to pass round a | large cup, from which each guest drank. {| Who thus drank stood up, and, as he lifted up the cup with both hands, his | body was exposed, without and any de- | fence, to a blow, and the oocasion was often seized by an enemy to murder | him. To prevent this, the following | plan was adopted: When one of the | company stood up to drink he required | the companion who sat next to him to! | be his pledge—that is, to be responsible for protecting him against anybody who { should attempt to take advantage of his defenceless position. This companion | stood up also, and raised his drawn sword in his had to defend the drinker MU. G. King, foreman of the Lee. tonia Democr writes : “Dr. 8S. B. gpa Leto io.

This practice, in an ! altered form, continued long after the | condition of society had ceased to re- | quire if, and it was ‘the origin of the | modern practice of pledging by drink. i 10g. In drinking from the “loving cup,” es now practiced, each person rises and takes the eup in his hand to drink, and nt the same time the person seated next to him rises also, and when the latter takes the cup in his turn the individual next to him does the same. the only proper way to eat itis overs tub of water, with a couple of towels hanging gracefully across the side. Ay @ M— SOME POET'S HORSES, t is a very curious fact that poets 849 nothing of the natural animal in the horse. As a beast, a quadruped, sbeolutely ignore it. It is only in its artifical varieties that they recognize it at all, and even then so ‘seldom as to surprise the student of these pages A — steeds of fame, a volume might easily be gathered from our poets. Butof the creature in nsture they say nothing. The beast has become so thoroughly) relative that it has lost all individuality. It is either the other half of a cavalier, s warrior, a war chariot, a plow, a coach, or a cart, or something else, that it can- not be contemplated apart from its rider, its accoutrements, or the vehicle it draws. All other animals have hur. acters of their own. The horse has none. It varies only mccording to the kind of man on its back or the kind of thing behind it. Attach a plowto it and it becomes at ones “heavy” and “dull ;" set a soldier upon it and it is “ firey "and “proud.” When ladies ride their horses turn to * milk-white palfreys ;” the hero of a poem, whether knight or highwayman, bestrides, asa rule, a “courser.” There are also “ gwift-heoled Abarans,” and “barbs” and ** jennets ;” but these are nol mean HOW A BALT WELL 15 WORKED. The stratom of salt having been once pierced, n saturated solution of the saline matter frequently rises in the boring to within eighty feet of the surface. This, however, eannot always be depended upon-—-and here centre the ineorveased difficulty and expense. When a fow dozen feet have been drilled, asix or cight inch iron pipe is inserted as a “casing.” Inside of this a two-inch pipe, also of iron, is placed. The *' oas- ing head ” has two openings, one for the entrance of pure water from a neighbor. ing spring into the larger pipe, at the lower end of which it becomes saturated with saline matter ; the other at the end of the smaller pipe, to sllow the explo- gion of the brine, Of course, the wells become foul or leaky at times, and then resort is had to torpedoes of nitro-gly- carina, which are sent down to the bottom of the * casing,” and after them is sent an iron weight which secures the explosion, The rusting of the “casing,” ig the great enemy of the salt worker; and, when his engine cannot lift the maas of rusted iron, a “knife” cuts the rusted metal, and the engine tears it away piecemeal. But the salt wells are exempt from any danger of taking fire ; and it is never necesrary, as is the case of oil wells, to shoot off the ‘casing head * with seannon ball. After the brine reaches the surface it js foreed into large resorveirs, whenoe it is drawn off through “string” afier “siring” of ‘‘covers,” until solar evaporation has left the coarser grades of salt. The “covers” or vats are usually sixteen by eighteen feel, and the pro- duct of each one per year is estimated at one hundred and fifty bushels ; while the product at Symouse is only about half that quantity. Itis also claimed that the slope of the valley at Warsaw is peculiarly adapted to rapid evapora tion by thesun. When the finer of salt are wanted, the brine is led from the reservoirs to an evaporating pan, where a gentle heat is applied. Similar trentment in another pan completes the process, and the residum of salt is raked | upon a shelf at the side of the evapoms. tor. After a slight draining it is taken to the bins, where a more thorough draining is allowed for the space of two of two or three weeks. nothing surprising in the fact that poets have but little sympathy with stable boys or book-makers. When they do speak of grooms they rate them as gentleman as an groom. This is a it should be: but on the other hand, when we is indebted for the moiety of his achieve- ments, it strikes strangely to fipd the matches its trappings, is striotly in keep ing with its harness. —— RL ee Ai EMBARRASSING GENEROSITY, but whatever you admire is yours If you express a scntiment of approbation for anything the owner at once says: “Senor, it is yours,” but he simply in tends to say something flattering, and ing story is told of Sir Spencer St. John, the Eoglish Ambassador, which Husband :~** My dear, have yon seen | often anything of my collar button?” Wife: «Did lose it?
