A LAND OF QUEER CUSTOMS.
Th« Whjh People In Holland Have for
Doing Ordinary Things.
All things are reversed in Holland.
The nmin entrance to the finest public
building in the country, The Palace,
or lute town hull, of Amsterdam, is its
buck door. Bashful maidens hire beaus
to escort them to the kermis, or fair,
on festival days. Timid citizens are
scared in Die dead of the night by their
own watchmen, who at every ijuartcr
of tire hour make such a noise with
tiieir wooden clappers one would sup-
|s>He the town to bo on fire. You will
see sleds used in summer there. They
go humping over the bare cobblestones,
while the driver holds a dripping oil
rag in advance of the runners to lessen
the friction. You will sec streets of
water, and tire country roads |>aved as
nicely as Broadway. You will see
vessels hitched like horses to their own
ers' door[>o«ta, and whole rows of
w|iiare |>onked houses leaning over the
street, its if they wen* getting ready to
tumble.
Instead of solemn striking clocks
you will iiear church chimes playing
snatches of operatic airs every quarter
of an hour by way of marking the
time. You will see looking glasses
hanging outside of the dwellings, and
pincushions displayed on the street
disirs. The first are called apionnen
(or spionnetjen), and are so arranged
outside ol the windows that persons
sitting inside can, without being seen,
enjoy a reflection of all that is going
on in the street. They can learn, too,
what visitor may be coming, and wateli
him rubbing his soles to a polish before
entering.
The pincushion means that a new
IkiIiv has appeared in the household.
If white or blue the new comer is a
girl; if red it is a little Dutchman.
Koine of these signals are very showy
affairs; some are not cushions at all,
but merely shingles trimmed with rib
bon or lime; and among the poorest
class it is not uncommon to see merely
a white or red string tied to the door
latch—fit token of the meager life the
poor little stranger is destined to lead.
Sometimes, instead of either pin
cushion or sliinglh, you will see a large
placard hung outside of the front door.
Then you may know that somebody in
the house is ill, and his or her present
condition is described on the placard
for tlie benefit of inquiring friends, and
sometimes, when such a placard has
been taken down, you may meet a grim
lisiking man on the street dressed in
black tights, a short cloak and a high
hut from which a long, black streamer
is flying. This is the Aanspreker go
ing from house to house to tell certain
[stsoiis that tiieir friend is dead. He
attends to funerals, and bears invita
tions to all friends whose presence may
lx> desired. A strange, weird looking
figure he is; and lie wears a peculiar,
professional cast of countenance that is
anything but comforting. —Mary Ma[>es
Dodge in St. Nicholas.
Junt in Time.
in the good old times, when it was
the custom to proclaim the banns in
public from the pulpit two Sundays be
fore the marriage of a couple, there
lived in western New York a youth
niuued Isaiah dago, who was about
taking to himself a wife.
It was the custom in the particular
church which Isaiah attended for the
minister to read the banns with the
other notices just before the sermon.
Isaiah was 'familiar, of course, with
this custom, and on the morning wlien
Ids ywu bunus were to bo read timed
his movements so as to oome into
church quietly just os the sermon was
beginning.
The old minister was an eccentric,
absent minded man, and as he saw the
young man oome down the aisle he
paused—he had just announced hi*
text—and said: “OhI seeing Isaiah
Huge reminds me of his banns with
Polly McCabe. I have the document
here somewhere I”
And to the overwhelming embarrass
merit of the now prominent Isaiah the
banns were read.
Isaiah said afterward that it wasdone
on purpose by ttie old doctor, but the
miiiistci solemnly declared that he had
really forgotten the notice.—Youth's
Couqianion.
French Fruits and Vegetables.
The French larder was much better
furnished than the English 4t> medinval
times, hut some tilings were considered
dainties which are now discarded. Our
modern confectioners offer us candied
violets, but the French of the Four
tcenth century used to cook violet
leaves like spinach or serve them as
salad. They also used to eat the green
ears of wheat boiled with melted but
ter, just as in this country we eat the
unripe ears of Indian corn. The young
burgeons of the grapevine boiled and
dressed with a piquant sauce was a fa
vorite vegetable entremet on a French
mediieval table. In general, however,
it must be said that even in the most
civilized parts of Uie continent of Eu-
ro[s‘ 5(X) years ago people had fewer
flowers, fruits and vegetables than we
have now. —New Y'ork Ledger.
A Parlor Reoeptael*.
This is a box 30 inches high, 20
Indies wide and 18 deep, made of black
walnut or of white wood stained and
varnished. Fifteen inches from the
bottom put a shelf to fit the box per
fectly. Inclose the front and fit a
drawer thereby, making a receptacle
for dust cloths, brushes, etc. Above
thi.-i place a rack having four compart-
incuts for music or two shelves for
books. A curtain falling in front of
tlie I sicks and music is an improve
ment.—Cor. New York Press.

Stir one talliespoonful of boiling
Water into one cup of powdered sugar,
add one tablespoonful of lemon or
i.nsge juice, or rose water, and spread
over tlie cake while warm. Some pre
fer vanilla; in that case, use one and
one-half tablcspoonsfuls of boiling water
and one-half tablespoonfnl of vanilla.
When 1 wish to make chocolate cake 1
simply melt os much chocolate as I
want, say one-third of a bar, and pour
into tlie frosting that 1 have flavored
with vanilla. I want every housekeep
er to try this; if they ,lo not say it is
the easiest and best recipe they have
found, then 1 am mistaken. —Kittle <J
Harvey in Housewife.
Svl the Table Thle Way.
A pretty manner of arranging flow
ers for table decoration, which is also
a novelty, is by using the slender cut
glass Vais's which come for tills pur-
|rise. At a dinner last week fifty of
these vases were used about an oblong
mirror in the center of tlie table. This
method is particularly pretty when fine
flowers like lilies of the valley ore em
ployed. —Exchange.
Apropos of Crank*.
The crank more than love makes the
world go round. The Hub crank is n
specialty of his kind. We could not
do without the crank in this town. We
should bo tisi cosmopolitan without
him. The day that tiu crank lost's his
hold (or her hold) in Boston, that day
we shall Ix'gin to lose our subtlest lo
calism anil ls>coiiie more coiiminiiplacc
tiinn Broadway. The crank has nl
wavs flourished here. He is the rank
product of the richest soil of the tri
mountain. To be sure, we knew him
not by the name of crank until about
ten years ago. But crank wits an old
and honorable wort! in our langtmge
when we ttaik it unto ourM-lves in doi
ly life.
H!iakes|)o,are used it. Mot, to be sure,
in the common substantive way. hut in
a substantial way n >ne the less I/'vi
eoprnphers have not been fond of the
worth even after itt triumph with the
populace i lie Century Dictionary,
however, gives it an honorable and
roomy phiee not far from eniiiiiiin. as
crank should lie, anti proves in un em
phrtic way that crank is g >t.tl English,
and that those persons on the other
side t.-f the water w!i > use it in a depre
eating way, with an apologetic phrase
•as the Americans say" —would tin bet |
ter to quote their own authors, whom
The Century musters in tine array, to
show tlie gtssi style of crank.— Boston

t being preceded by a light repast in

niddle of the day.
The Greek usage corresponded very
marly to the breakfast, luncheon and
linner now in vogue in England. 1m
mediately after rising the tlrst meal was-
eaten, followed at midday by the sec
ond. It was not until after sunset that
the last and principal repast was par
taken of by all dosses.
In Rome, during the reign of the
Rmperor Augustus, the two first name !
meals wj*re very simple and hastilv

There is iuiic'i to be said in favor of
shaving, and something, too, against it.
Some ladies sot their faees against the
beard because they don’t like it, others
because they do. Who shall decide he
tween them! Diogenes said that he
who mowed his chin reproached nature
for not having made him a woman.
But, then, the tub philosopher was a
dirty fellow who eaehewed soap, so his
opinion can have no weight with cleanly
(icople. On the other hand, Peter the
Great, who was a much smarter, though
not a much cleaner, individual than
tlie old liuitem bearer, laid a heavy
tax on lieanls. and finding he eould not
aboliali-them by that means had the
chins of his bearded subjects denudes!

iron Inxip and oyster knives.—New
Olris Who Moks Poor Wives.
I never see a petted, pampered girl
who is yielded to In every whim by
servants and parents that 1 do not sigh
with pity for tlie man who will some
day be her husband. It Is the wor-
slii|ied daughter, who has been tanght
that her whims and wishes are supreme
In a household, who makes marriage a
failure all her life. She has had her
way In tilings great and small; and
when she desired dresses, pleasures or
journeys which were beyond the family
purse she carried the day with tears or ‘
sulks or posing as a martyr. Tlie par
ents sacrificed and suffered for her
sake, hoping finally to see her well
married.
They carefully hide her faults from her
suitors who seek her hand, and she is ever
ready with smilce and allurements to win
the hearts of men, and the average man
is as blind to the faults of a pretty girl as
a newly hatched bird is blind to the
worms upon the trees about him. He
thinks her little pettish ways are
mere girlish moods; but when she be- |
comes his wife and reveals her selfish
and cruel nature he is grieved and hurt
to think fate has been so unkind ti> I
him.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox in Ladies' |

For many years scientists have been I
perjilexed over the phenomenon of a
certain well at Yakutsk. Sibefia As
long ago as 1828 a Russian merchant
began to sink this noted well, and after
working on it for three years gave it up
as a bud job, having at that time sunk
it to a depth of thirty feet without get
ting through the frozen ground. He
communicated these facts to tlie Rus
sinn Academy of Sciences, who sent
men to take charge of the digging op
eration at the wonderful well.
These scientific gentlemen toiled away
at their work for several years, but at
la-t abandoned it when a depth of 382
feet had been reached, with the earth
still frozen as hard as a rock. In 1844
the academy had the temperature of
the soil at the sides of the well taken at
various deptlia From the data thns
obtained they eaine to the startling
conclusion that the ground was frozen
to a depth exceeding 600 feet—St.
I/ouis Republic.

When shopping Utke ;is much Rinall
change with you as possible. Take
also a supply of cards, with name and
address plainly engraved or /written
When purchasing a variety of small ar
tides, which are to ho stmt home, give
the clerk, when a pure I dim* is made, the
exact change and a card and ‘move
on.” You can do two or throe more
errands in the time you would have to
wait for change, and at tlie same time
clc ar the mind of the clerk and the space
at the counter for the next comer, and
so help “oil the wheels” of the big shop
