The Way nt True Love in ureeniano.1 Since the Danish missionaries have gained the confidence of the natives of Greenland, marriages in the far North are celebrated by the representative.-* of the Church, lu a recent issue of one of the Danish papers one of tho missionaries gives the following account of the way courtship and marriage are brought about. Tho man calls on the missionary an<l says, ''I wish to take unto myself a wife." "Whom?" asks the missionary. The man gives her name. "Have you spoken with her?" ? Ah u rule the answer is in the uegnW tive, and tho missionary asks tho Reason. "Because," comes tho reply, "it is so diSlieult. You must speak to her." The missionary then calls the young woman to him and says: "I think it is time that yen marry," "But," she replies, "I do not wish to marry." "That is a pity," adds the missionary, "as 1 have a liusbaud for you." "Who is he?" asks the maiden. The missionary names tho candidate for her love. , "But he is not worth anything. I will net have him." "However," suggests tho missionary, "he is a good fellow and attends well to his house. He throws a good harpoon, and he loves you." Tho Greenland beauty listens attentively, but again declares she will not accept the man as her husband. "Very well," goeson tho missionary, "I do not wish to force you. I shall casny una unouicr wuu ior so goon ii follow." Tho missionary then remains hi Ion t hh though ho lookodupon tlio incident as closed. I>111 in n few minutes she whispers, "But if you wish it?" "No," answers tho pastor, "only if you wish it. I do not wish to overpersuade you." Another sigh follows, and the pastor expresses tho regret that she cannot accept the man. "Pastor," she then breaks out, "I fear ho is not worthy." "But did lie not kill two whales last summer while the others killed none? Will you not take him now?" "Yes, yes ; I will." "(5od bless you both," answers tho pastor, and joins the two in marriage. ?New York Tribune. Wonders ol a Lens.

The cranberry runs *h< tho tisli that named the placo * " hard in tho* affections of tho people. uo It does as much now t-oward supporting thorn, and it is tho only thing to ',c cat that that desert was ever known to produce. ',H Jersey grows cranberries, too, and tin I ho picking business is more pictur- so esque than on tho Cape. There the "home folks" manage, by turning all wa tho men, women and children into tho er, bogs, to handle tho crop, and, as inj everybody knows, there is nothing exciting about tho nativo Capo Coder. *h Ho is a suitablo subject for MiHs Wil* kins's pen, but hardly for Rider Hag- '1C gard's. Rut in Jersey, around Cranberry cr Centre and Pino Ridge, tho picking is tli done by a wild and vagrant elass, many if of whom manage to get along with no ea visible means of support all the year till the time comes that they can work in the hop Holds or the cranberry bogs. The worst of tho work is tho stooping. Many ??f tho moil have thoir * 1 knees eappeil with leather, and move !V 1 about more or less without getting up. About a third of the pickers at Pine "K Hidge mid thereabout are women, ami it is noticeable that they are in every way less systematic at their work than us the men; they stoop, they beml to their knees, they sit down on the ground for a change. "Thoy piek as fast as the men first part of the day," said the buyer, who, in a shed at tho odge of tho bog was ex 111 insuring fruit, "but they give out 110 sooner. But they como out of the ? season with more money than the men, for they don't throw it away ho fast." Many of tho piekers hero are col- 1,1 ored people, and many are Italians, J" and with both gambling isa great paH- ,l time. They stop during the day to ' gamble with their "tiekets." 'I'llone tickets are given them instead of KU money by the buyer and are redeemable once a week. 1,1 The actual picking is done iu pails u" or baskets slung around the neck; 11,1 those are emptied as tilled into a big, W fiat, wooden box that can be swung 110 comfortably on the back. When it is tilled it is slung there, and so carried ' ? to tho buyers" shod. A bushel of ',r berries is u small load and a bushel . and a half a good-sized one. In most of this region the cranberry '' is still regarded assent by tho grace of Ood, one man having as good a n right to it as another. Pickers who, r< under this sort of squatter sovereignty, own their berries, get this fall fifty cents a bushel for them. Some of the men can piek three bushels and sh more in a day. But many of them ni shorten their labors by a game of seven p. up in the woods after they have taken th in a couple of bushels. Iir Many of iho colored people live iu ta cabins around the bog-lands, and jH sonic of them board other pickers dur- in ing the cranberry season?$'2.50 a or week is a popular price. la f 11 r\tlior i\nri c ??f .Ta*oa? ? v/v??vi |'?n ? a ui voiovjr iuu UU^o \V| and their product arc treated as pri- ^,r vate property, and then the pickiug is >j done by children and neighbors mainly. ^ There is no such chance to make money as the wild bogs afford, and |JH strangers are not drawn to the work. Things are managed on this plan, too, at Cape Cod. Hut, though on the p. Capo hired laborers picking in private p? bogs, bo to apeak, get only twenty-five m) cents a bushel, the discreponcy is not wj so great as it seems. Picking can bo pa dono faster in those private bogs; the jn plants are in better condition, largely MW because of more careful handling in ja( previous picking seasons, they grow mt more thickly, and the culture that is jn bestowed upon them results in bigger tp( berries and more of them. pQ "I toll you," said a West street mercliant, who goos into cranberries deep, an is he puts it, and who visited Cape [tod in the beginning of the season to cp examine the crop, "there isn't a pret- jn( tier sight, than soinc of those cultiva- p^ led bogs down there, after the berries pp ire ripe.
