lotting one glov fall; the gloves aie
rolled in tho'rieht hand to say "No."
If you would liavo it understood that

Klovoyour left hand. rIo indicate that
you desire to be followed, strike your
left shoulder with the shoves. " 1 do
not love you any wore,' ia pronounced
by striking the gloves several times
against tha chin. For "I. hate you,"
turn the gloves inside out. " I should
wish to be beside you," is said bv
smoothing the gloves gentlv. To ask if
you arc loved, the left hand is gioved,
leaving the thumb uncovered. If you
wish to make the charming confession,
" I love you." both gloves are let fall at
once. To give a warning. "Be attentive
we are observd," the gloves are
turned round the fingers. If you would
show tlmt you are displeased, strike the
back of vour hand against your gloves;
"furious," you take them away. ,
A ftnehess' Clothes.
A public sale of the personal effects of
recent deceased duchess took place
lately in London. The catalogue, says
the London Queen, describes a vast
number of articles of wearing apparel,
all of which belonged to the late dowa
ger duchess of Somerset, , the second
wife of the eleventh duke of that title.
A notion of the extensive character of
this wardrobe is given when it is stated
thatof shawls alone there were no less
than 5iH) specimens, while there are 500
lace and other handkerchiefs, 600 pairs
of silk hose and 2,000 pairs of gloves, be
sides other articles in like proportion.
These are divided into no less than
1,600 lots. Most of them appear to have
never been in use, and scores upon
scores of handkerchiefs remain neatly
folded as when they were originally
purchased. In almost every case the
different effects bear a ducal coronet and
initial embroidered upon them, but be
yond this there is nothing which can
be supposed to give an adventitious in
terest to any of them except in two or
three instances.,
Tea (iomii.. Children's Drcitci.
The latest novelty in this kind of
house dresses is the recently imported
" tea gown," a new garment that can be
classified neither as a dress or a wrap
per, which has been imported from Eng
land with the afternoon tea or kettle
drum. These gowns are made exactly
after the pattern of those worn from the
time cf the first empire, when a revival
of the classic Greek dress was attempted,
which lasted until about 1840. They
are made of tinted twilled silks, the
waists under the arms, no fullness in
the skirts, sleeves close-fitting, with
slashes and pus at the shoulders; neck
square, and a puff, ruffle or tucks at the
edge of the short skirt. The idea origi
nated with the iEsthetic club, of Lon
don, and has received much adverse
criticism outside of artistic circles in
England.
It is the almost universal custom to
keep children in white dresses until
they are five or six years old. Their
short dresses are made of the finest ma
terials and worn over colored slips of
silk, flannel or silesia. The neck is
high, finished with a lace ruffle, or wide
collar and a square yoke, with tucks,
lace and embroidery. Th skirt is
gathered into this and finished with one
or two ruffles. A beautiful dress of
real princesse lace i3 made into a plain
slip, witli the pattern forming the
sleeves, and upper part with a ruffle
four inches deep of the same lace.
From these through all grades of value,
according to the material used, they
may be had, finished in the neatest
manner, the plain slip of cambric,
with tucks and plaits, costing forty-eight
cents. Infants' cloaks are made with the
double cape of cashmere or matellasse
silk, with white silk fringe edging both
capes. Handsomely embroidered, they
are $38, Long dresses are made with'
high neck and long sleeves, witb a
square yoke and trimming on the edge
ot one or two lace or embroidered ruffles.
The handsomest are made of real Valen-
""ciennes lace and linen lawn, and are
valued at Those with robe front
of lace and puffing are $35. Handsome
naineook robes, with fine embroidery,
are from? 2.90 to $20. Colored flannel
long dresses are a sensible addition to
an infant's wardrobe, costing from $1.65
to $5. They are white, pink and blue.
Embroidered cashmere shoes are also in
pale colors and are made with flexible
soles. Some of the handsomest and
most durable of children's short dresses
are made of serpentine braid, crocheted
into strips and made up with cambric
or linen. JVcto York Herald.
Industrial Secrets.
A century ago what a man discovered
in the arts ho concealed. Workmen
were put upon an oath never to reveal
the process wed by their emplovers.
Doors were keot closed, artisans going
out were searched, visitors were rigor
ous y excluded from admission, and
false operations blinded the workmen
themselves. Tho nwteries f every
craft were hedged in by thick-set fences
of empirical pretensions and judicial
affirmation. Tin royal manufactories
of porcelain, for example, were carried
on in Europe with a spirit of jealous ex
clusivencss. His majesty of Saxony
was especially circumdpect. Not con
tent with the oath of secrecy imposed
upon his work-people, he would not
abate his kingly suspicion in favor of a
brother monarch Neither king nor
kiug's delegate might inter the tabooed
v,hh of Mtisson.
What is erroneously called the Dres
den porcelain that exquibite pottery of
which the world has never seen it3 like
was produced lor 200 years by a pro
cess so secret that neither the bribery of
princes norths garrulity of the opera
tives revealed it. Other discoveries
huve been less successfully guarded for
tunately for the world. The manufac
ture of tinware in England originated
in a stolen secret.
Few readera needed be informed that
tinwi.ro is simply thin iron plated with
tin by 'na tipped into the molten
liietaj. In theory it la an easy matter
to dean the surface ot iron, dip it into a
bath cf boiling tin, remove it enveloped
with a suvery metal to a place for cool
ing. In practice, however, the process
is one oi the most difficult in the arts.
It was discovered in Holland, and
guarded iroin publicity wiih the utmost
vi;ii!H'e lor more than half a century.
England tried iu vain to discover tne
bccitt untilJsnit-t Sherman, a Cornish
miner, insinuated himself maiter of the
treitt, uud brought it home. The secret
of niiuiufiiciuring i-Hhi Bteel was aldo
tUttiiliiiy obtained, and is now within
i'.A- iiiu'ii of all artidna. Trade Lut.
FAR Tf GARDES AND HOUSEHOLD
The Piat Pssstwrs.
We always have the best success with
breeding sows when they are allowed to
feed on grass. This is the only food they
require until the young pigs are a week
or two old, when milk or meal of some
sort may be ci- en to them to increase
the flow of milk If they require It. Sows
thus manaeed are never uirlv and never
destroy their pigs. Why" Because they
are in a natural and health? condition.
The grass Also increases the flow ot
milk and is, quite often, sufficient food
for a sow while rearing her young.
Young pigs soon learn to eat the grass,
which is alike natural and healthful for
them. We never have a caso of scours
or thumps among young pigs when run
ning in pasture. The grass serves to
counteract the effect of corn, and many
pigs on grass can be fed heavily with
this food without the injury which it
would do them if confined and
deprived of grass. Our experience has
convinced us that no farm is complete
without a pig pa ture. Clover is the
best of all the grasses for this purpose,
and next to it we prefer orchard grass
for the reason that it starts up promptly
alter being eaten off.is the earliest in the
spring and is relished by the pigs. It is
not necessary to have a special field for
the pig pasture, but they may be al
lowed to run in any lot if properly in
closed . There should be water in the
field and planty of grass. A patch of
sweet corn sowed in drills will be found
convenient to supplement a short pas
ture in the late summer. There should
also be another patch of turnips or
other roots into which the pigs may
be turned for fall breeding With the
three auxiliaries of pasture, sweet corn
stalks and a root patch, the cost of rear
ing and feeding pigs may be reduced to
less than one-half of their expense when
tl ey are confined and fed in pens, to
say nothing about their better condition
for food. Rural New Yorker.
llapld Churulus Undesirable.
As a rule the best batter is produced
by using a moderate motion in churn
ing. The operation at the commence
ment should always be slow, in order
that the cream shall be well mixed to
gether. After thin the motion may be
faster, but its rate of speed should be
made uniform and adapted to the con
struction of the churn. The objection
to very fast churning is that the larger
butter globules come first and are gather
ed into lumps before '.he smaller ones are
churned ; hence a loas in quantity if the
ciiurning is stopped at tnis point, and if
continued under a very rapid motion the
butter globules t hat come liist are liable
to be injured. We have never seen anv
of the so-called " three-minute churns "
that uniformlv made pood hnt.tpr lv
churning in this short time. Of course
there is a difference in creams: that
from the milk of Jersey cows will ordi
narily churn more quickly than cream
from the milk of common cows. But
under anv circumstances very rapid
motion tends to do injury to the cream,
antl especially is this the case when the
butter begins to come. In churning, the
object sought should be to have ail the
cream churned alike and in about the
same time, and when the butter appears
in a granular form the churning should
cease. Ot course we shall not pretend
to say that inventions and processes for
chnrning very quickly cannot be brought
out, and which will make uniformly a
first-class butter; we can only say if
there be such a churn one that is made
to do its work, for instance, in three
minutes, and can in that time produce
the best butter we have not yet seen it.
Dairyman.
The Difference,
From actual experiments made it is
demonstrated beyond a doubt tint the
grinding of grain adds one-third to its
value lor feeding purposes. This is a
matter of a good deal of importance to
the agricultural community, and, in
fact, to all classes who have animals to
feed. As far as dollars' are concerned,
terhaps it is not of so much moment in
the Northwest, where grain is so cheap
and so plenty, as it is in other portions
of the country, where less grain is
raised, but it is worthy of the consider
ation of those who have not full bins of
oats and corn. Since the introduction
of cheap feel-mills, it is the province of
every larmer to own one, with which
all grain intended for the stock on the
farm could be ground.

Good White Cread. Ha.f a pint of
nice light bread Eponge, one heaping
tablespoonful of sugar, stir in graham
flour enough to make a stiff batter; let
it rise, then stir it down and put it into
ihe baking tins, let it rise again, then
bake a little longer than white bread.
Use good yeast but no soda in this
bread.
Cheap. Good Sponge Cake. Whisk
together four eggs, a larife cupful of
powdered susrar, add lemons to taste;
also three tablespoonfuls of water, half
a large cupful ot tlo r, with two tea
spoonfais of baking powder in it.
Thoroughly but lightly mix, adding

Babxet Soup. Boil one pint of pearl
barley in one quart of stock till it is re
duced to a pulp, pass it through a sieva
and add as much more stock as will be
required to make of the consistency of
cream; put the soup on the fire; when
it boils stir into it, off the tire, the volk
of an egg beaten up with a gill of fresh
butter, and serve wun small dice ot
bread fried in butter.
Ikish Potato Pie. One pound
mashed potatoes rubbed through a
colander; one-half-pound butter,
creamed with sugar; six eggs, whit's
and yolks separately; one lemon,
squeezed into the potatoes while hot ;
one cupful of milk one teaspoonful of
nutmeg, and the same of mace; two
cupsful whita ouaar; bake in open
shells of paate; to be eaten cold. C'om

Ambergris.
The largest lump of ambergris ever
known was in the possession ot the king
of Tidore, and purchased ol him by the
Dutch East India company. It weighed
182 pounds. Another enormous piece
of 13i) pounds weieht was found inside
a whale near the W indward islands and
sold for $3,5oo. The true anibergrU,
which is a morbid secretion of the
spermaceti whale, gives out a fragrant
smell when a hot needle is thrust into
it, and it also melts like fat, but the
counterfeit often sold instead of the real
thing does not present these features
Men engaged in whale fishing are on the
lookout lor ambergris, and usually find
most of it in the torpid, sick or very
kdn fish, consequently it Would appear
to be what all medical practitioners say
is, the product of a diseased liver .
RemnriaMe Instances of Instinct.
Muskrats, in their winter excursions
under the ice to their feodlng
grounds, which are frequently at
groat distances from their abodep,
take in breath at starting and
remain under the water as long as they
can. Then they csn riBfl to the ice, nnd
breathe out the air in their lungs, which
remain in bubbles against the lower Bur
face of the ice. They wait till this air
recovers oxygen from the water and the
ice, and then take it in again and go on
till the operation has to be repeated. In
this way they can travel almost any
distance. This is really an intellectual
operation.
The fierce dragon fly, with 12,000 lenses
in his eye, darts from angle to angle witb
the rapidity of a fl ishing sword, and as
rapidly darts back, not turning in the
air, but with a clash reversing the ac
tion of his four wings and instantane
ously calculating the distance of the ob
jects, or he would dash himself to
pieces. We cannot tell how the pupa
of this fly came by the instinct that
prompts it to leave the water and hang
itself up to dry- But we may be able
to explain this quite as soon as to un
veil the oricin of the hooks by which it
hangs itself up.
Old song birds teach their tunes to
the young by giving them music lessons,
which are not paid for by the hour, and
hawks drill their offspring in hawking.
A sparrow, whose leg was kindly set
by a lady, brought another sparrow to
undergo the same operation, and spent
the winter n ghu for years in the apart
ment in which she had. received the
kind treatment, flying out every morn
ing and returning every evening, exoept
during the breeding season.
Did you ever observe the behavior of
a kitten when it is given its first mouse?
Up to that moment kit has been only
the gentlest of creatures, and you
wouldn't imagine that her purring voice
was capable of a harsh sound. But, in
possession of that mouse, behold the
change! Her eyes snap and burn with
lurid fir , and her growls are vengeful.
This is real instinct.
Some little swallows once built a nest
against a lime kiln. But the wall was
so warm the clay soon cracked, and the
nest fell down. Immediately thev built
it over, but again it fell. Not discour
aged, they tried it a third time, with no
better success. They built a fourth
nest, which remained firm, and in it
they reared a little brood . They had
found and worked up a kind of clay that
would stand the heat. They came back
the next year and repaired their cottage
with the same clay. This they did also
the third jea. Can swallows reason?
A Common Mispronunciation,
"There goes ParneU, the Irish agita
tor 1" observed a gentlemen on the seat
before me, in a railroad car. "ParneM,
is it P" replied his companion. ' That
is Mr. ParneW," whispered the lady be
hind me to her (laughter. " Mr. Parn
eli. Ah!" Now here were four people,
educated people evidently, who in the
coarse of two minutes mispronounced
a plain English name. It is always an
noying to heir the accent misplaced on
a name, whether local or personal. We
Americans seem to have taken a lancy
for throwing the accent in family names
on the last syllable, if possible in defi
ance of all sound rules of good sense or
good taste. These two qualities, by-the-bye,
are very closely allied.
Youcannsver have good taste with
out good sense as the foundation. False
taste is inevitably absurd. Now this
common mispronunciation of all names
ending in ell nas neither good sense nor
good-taste in its favor. It is opposed to
the spirit ot cur mother tongue. Last
year I had a nephew in lovo with a
charming girl, MissBrownell; of course
she was Lily Browned to her lover. For
three months I heard Tom mispro
nounce her name, or thatof her lamhy,
a dozen times a day.
A few months later, as ill luck would
have it, his sister was courted by Harry
Bedell, pronounced . Bedell of course.
Now Brownell and Bedell are good
English names, and should have a good
English pronunciation. Bedell is no
doubt the same as Beadle. Many Eng
lish names ending in ell were originally
connected with the common nouns well
or wall.
The governor of the State of New York

versity in Western New York is Corn

HubbeJJ. LiddeZJ and WaddeZZ are in

But the propensity to throw the accent
on the last syllable is not confined to
names ending in ell. Barnard is fre
quently pronounoed Barnard, Tricketts
becomes TrickeWa, General Steuben is
General Steu&en, in spite of his German
birth. That distinguished gentleman,
the present secretary of state, is spoken
ot, in rustic parlance, as Mr. E-varto.

Extraordinary Case or Fasting.
The Pall Mall Oatctte relates the fol
lowing extraordinary story: A re
markable case of fasting is reported
lrom Ipswich. The wife of ai obbing
gardener, named Lock wood, it is
stated, has not eaten a pound of solid
food throughout a year, and for the last
three montus has had nothing but a few
drops of weak tea, amounting in quan
tity to less than a pint per month. She
is reduced to a mere skeleton, unable to
move her Lend oropen her eyes or
mouth, but with her right arm is able
to shift lier head from one side to the
other. She can moisten her lips
with the fingers of her right hand,
but beyond this she is unable to
move, all the rest of her frame being
apparently dead. Sue faints at the
least excitement, and lies for hours, and
even days, in a state of coma. In one
instance she lay so for a fortnight.
When not insensible, her mental facul
ties are almost unimpaired. A surgeon
who has visited her says she suffers from
pressure on the brain, and at times en
dures intense pain in the right temple.
Coal Mines Under the Sea.
A number of English coal mines are
being worked under the ocean. In
Northumberland the net available
quantity of coal under tue sea is esti

Durham coast under the sea, including
a breadth of three and a ball miles, with
an area of sfventy-one square miles,
134 500,000 tons. The latter mine is in
a vein of an aggregate thickness of thirty
feet, distributed in six seams. Engineers
are considering how it can be worked
successfully in the future.
