good suggestion on the arrangement
of stalls for cattle is given by the SGtur-
day EreaiRg Post:
We have seen lately in one neighbor'
hood up in the mountain farm regions
of Pennsylvania, three instances Of
what appear to US to be comfortab BILE
common sense stalls for cattle. The
stalls are wide enough to admit of the
animals turning in them, the sides
closely boarded up, the floor, dias
raised seven or eight inches above that
of the passage way in the rear,
with an outward pitch of about three
inches in the length of the stall,
the entrance of each closed with
two-leaved folding doors opening
lnwards. There are no rings, stan
Snlons, or any tying or fastening by the
mead. No animal not absolutely fool,
VIII ever stand, head down hill, and al
ways, In every instance, we found the
cattle In these stalls, standing "right
end up" well up to the rack and as
clean and comfortable as animals aver
need be. AS all the bovine animals
nave the little ltches and iuconveni-
snces to attend to as we'll as ourselves
and would be better for the use of their
tongue with which they can reach
nearly every part of their bodies, this
freedom of the stalls seems to be a very
good common sense arrangement, be.
sides providing comfortable quarters in
all cold, stormy weather. The stall.
need rot be expensive, being all mad,
of rough materials, and sufficient
opening above the folding doors to af
ford free ventilation.

The oCheck Rein,o

One of the barbarisms of the present
day is the unmerciful use made of the
check rein to compel horse, while be-
ing driven to carriage, to hold his
head in an unnatural and painful posi-
ton. This rein is frightened to such an
extent by the fancy horseman, that the
animal is unable to see the ground
where he is compelled to place his foot
steps, and that, too, while being driven
at the top of his speed.
If the practice were confined to the
fancy alone, the result would not be SC
bad; but we see it followed up by grave
and gay, old and young, male and fe'
male (for it is quite common to meet
lady who prides herself on being a gooe
"whip.") To this feature of woman's
rights we have no particular objection,
if she will only slacken the "oheck" and
let the horse hold his head, while trav-
cling, in its natural position.
How any Christian gentleman (or
LADY, can reconcile this wanton cruelty,
prompted by pride, to his or her con-
science, is too deep for us to fathom.

-AQuains nIasriinonial Custom.

Rev. Charles Rogers, in his "Memori-
ais of Life and Manners in North Brit
ain," gives the following quaint partic-
ulars of marriage ceremony: "Among
the peasantry, betrothals were con-
Quoted in singular fashion. The fond
swain, who had resolved to make pro-
posals, sent for the object of his affection
to the village ale house, previously in
forming the lsndlady of his intentions.
The damsel, who knew the purpose OF
the message, busked herself in her best
attire, and waited on her admirer. She
was entertained with a glass of ale;
then the swain proceeded with his tale
of love. A dialogue like the following
ensued. Pm gaun to speir whether ye
will taxi me Jenny Deed, Jock, l
thocht ye NIGHT haze speirt that lang
syne.' They said We wad refuse me,
lassie.' Then tbey'ee leers, jock AN
so veil no refuse me, lassieP Eve
teli't We that twice owre already, Jock.
Then came the formal act of betrothal
The parties pressed the thumbs of their
their right hands, which they licked,
together, and vowed fidelity. The cere-
mOny passessed the solemnity of an oath.
the violator of such an engagement be-
ing considered guilty ef perjury. In
allusion to this practice, favorite
Scottish song commences:
There's my thumb, I'll ne'er beguile thee
The pressure of moistened thumbs, as
the solemn ratification of an engage
ment, was used in other contracts. The
practice, as confirmatory of an agree
ment, existed both among the Celts and
Goths."
