A SMALL SIN" AMONG WOMEN
One is our small jealousies Of each
other. 1t is wrong to say that o.
men cannot be friends together; we
can-true, firm, enduring friends !;
but | doubt if any young woman's
friendship ever existed tree from
jealousy. If we sre not jealous
about men we are about women, and
guard our rights against division with
the vigilance OF house dog guarding
his domain. No man can understand
the unresIsting pettiness of jealousy
that exists between women friends !;
no man knows it for his own part.
and no man would submit to it from
his friend. But we accept il patients
~, knowing where the shoe pinches
from the shape OF our own feet. Ar
wives and lovers We are perhaps the
most jealous women in the the world.
There is scarcely wife in England
who would allow her husband TO ad-
mire any other woman, to make OF
any other friend, or TO show frank
pleasure IN her society. There
would be pouting or tears or tantrums
according to individual disposition,
aud the whole harmony of the house
hold would be swept by the board
he practical upshot Of which is that
men make friends outside their homes
unknown to their respective Junos,
and that very often the simple fact
of secrecy changes the complexion
ofthe whole affairs, aud makes what
would have been only a friendship,
if it could have been frankly &C
knowledged, an intrigue instead

short and palms too broad, Next to
the Irish girls the daughters of Po-

The hands of French Italian aud
Spanish girls may be called indiffer-
ent, though there are more beautiful
hands to be seen in Franco and Italy

stow a great deal of care on their

Maple Sugar Sediment.

Ihe question in your last, relative to
maple sugar, can be best answered by
the chemists in our Agricultural Colleges.
Let sugar makers in the vicinity of them
send the sap-grit or other residue of
sugar TO them for analysis.
The sap from my trees seems to de-
post tangible substances besides sugar
First, what is called sand but it is not

increase OF it, toward the close of the
sugar season as the weather becomes
warmer, seems TO show that the labora-
tory is more busy for summer products
when helped by cooperative outside in

Secondly, when we make dry sugar,
lie pan or kettle in which the work is
done becomes coated with what we call

tins has TO be removed, for it will scorch
and scorch the sugar above it. This
substance too dissoves readily in cold or
warm water. Now this may be very
much the same as the grit, or mixture

be lime, think, for where the maple

people have an asparagus bed, and if
not, that they will plant one this spring,
tor it is one of the most delicious vegeta-
bles cultivated, and it comes in at time
when fresh vegetables are not plenty.
Some may give better varieties in some
departments than we have given, but
none will 60 far astray if they sow the
seed of any OF the varieties we have
named. Our list might be very largely
extended, but we have enumerated sorts
enough for home use. +. C. HgcLe ns
