Peculiar Norwegian Customs.

I SHALL never forget the friendliness
and cordiality with which, upon recent
visit to Norway, was received and enter
tanned in every household throughout the
country, where, for q longer or shorter
period, was guest and an inmate. Nor
can / easily forget the many awkward
blunders l committed before became in
itiated into the manners and fashions of
my kind hosts-small sins, through igno-
rance, against the established and time
honored national code Of ceremony and
behavior.
"Do in Rome as Romans do" is a very
wise precept, but somewhat difficult to
follow when you don't know how the Ro'
mans do, but have to wait and learn that
first. had, for instance, no idea that ii
was the custom in Norway-as also in
Denmark and Sweden-to go round after
dinner and shake hands with every one
present, ladies and gentlemen, finishing
off with the host and hostess, and saying
to each the Norwegian word velbekomme
which is about equal to-May the meal
agree with you. At a large dinner party
of some 200 or 300 guests this handshaklng
becomes so serious business that 1t takes
some time and muscle to go through and
one almost gets hungry and thirsty again
by the time it is over.
Likewise it is customary in every Nor
wegian family, in the cities as well as in
the country, to say "tak for caffe," after
breakfast or lunch, and ''tsk" for the after
supper, at which tea is always served.
All children, even the grown up ones
with children of their own, always say to
their parents "tak for mad" (thanks fol
the meal) at every meal under the parent,
al roof, or even their own home, if the
parents are present. In few countries is
filial affection carried to such an extent
as in Norway father and mother are
names there only second to be held In les!
reverence than that of God.-Letter TO "

Don't Eat Too Much.

In order that we may rightly compre
hend the blessings of this life, it is abso-
lutely necessary that we should eat. If
there is not provided for US rational suf
ficiency of nutriment, we will soon become
fraternally acquainted with the inanimate
clod that is, to speak plainly, we shall
die. If we eat too much, should our days
be prolonged by frequent inspiration of
medicine, life will be to us burden, griev-
GUS and heavy to be borne.
On account of our edible iniquities do
the doctors and apothecaries greatly
thrive; for we love life, even should phys
icians be of no value and medicines give no
strength.
Over-much eating produces derange-
ment of the bowels, or carnal interiors,
causing pain, sorrow and gloom. Then do
we send for doctor, to enliven us by de-
scribing our physical state. The doctor
prescribes and the apothecary mixes for
us "loathing and abomination. But even
by the nausea of multitudinous COM
pounds we do not become wise. BY great
tribulation, however, we are enabled TO
perceive theg inestimable value of wisdom.
| The wise man understands how large g
quantity of wood will suffice, and, profit,
| ing by experience, he conducts himself ac'
cordinply. The foolish man eats tCo much
| This meat is as bitterness in his throat.
One of the problems of life is to de
termine the qualities, quantities and times
of eating. Beyond doubt correct solu
ton of this problem would bring health tc
the nations Should all carefully and dill
gently study this problem, the profess
ional employment of physicians would bt
greatly lessened.-A. Il. ", in Hearth d7t

WINNIE UNDER THE APPLE TIRE.
BIZ ELIZABETH AKERs ALLEN.

By ALLEN.
In a home-nest Of pesce and Joy,
Bright and pleasant as home can be,
Lives a merry and sweet-faced boy
Under a broad old apple-tree;
Searching wide you will seldom meet
Child so blithsome and fair as he
How can he help being pretty and sweet,
Dwelling under an apple-uee!
In the spring when the child goes out,
Glad as a bird that winters past,
Making his fower-beds al about,
Liking best what he finished last;
Then the tree from each blossomy limb
Heaps Its petals about his feet,
And like benison over him
Scatters its fragrances, sweet to sweet.
He has only to smile and win
Face more lovely was never kissed
Dear blue eyes and q dimpled chin,
Curls that dance in golden mist;
Ctrcled ever by tenderest care,
Taught and guided by loves decree,
How can he help being good and fair,
Dwelling under an apple-treei
In the summer the dear old tree
Spreads above him its cooling shade,
Keeping the heat from his cheek. while he,
Playing at toll with rake and spade,
Chasing the humming birds gleam and dart,
Wa ching the koney-bees drink and doze,
Gathers in body and soul and heart
Beauty and heath like an opening rose.
In the autumn, before the leaves
Lose their greenness. the apples fall,
Roll on the roof, and bounce from the caves
Pile on the porch and rest on the wall;
Then he heaps on the grassy ground
Rosy pyramids brave to see;
How can he help being ruddy and sound,
Dwelling under an apple-treei
In the winter, when winds are wild,
Then, still faithful, the sturdy tree
Keeps its watch DER the darling child,
Telling him tales Of the May to be;
Teaching him faith under stormy skies,
Bidding him trust when he cannot see;
How can he help being happy and wise,
Dwelling under an apple-tree:

Habit of Work.

In Finding Ones Occupation Gone"
intended apparently to show the impossl-
bility of man actually retiring from all
work, is the following -" The hankering
after old occupations is everywhere to be
met with after the occupations gone
"Mr. DICKENS, on his homeward
passage from America, had for one OF his
fellow passengers an English sailor, a
smart, thorough built man-of-war's man
from his hat to his shoes, who was on his
way home to see his friends, and who,
when he presented himself to take and
pay for his passage, had been advised to
work it instead and save the moneys
suggestion he secuted with scorn ineffsble,
swearing, in seaman's style ofimprecation,
that nothing should hinder his going as a
gentleman. So they took his money. But
no sooner was he aboard than he slowed
his kit in the forcastle, arranged to mess
with the crew, and the very first time the
hands werG turned up, he went aloft like
cat before any body. And all through the
passage there he was, first at the braces,
outermost on the yards, perpetually lend
ing hand everywhere, but always with a
sober dignity in his manner, and a sober
grin on his face, which plainly said, dc
It as a gentleman. For my own pleasure

A NEW YORK wholesale grocer who has
become rich in his business, lately gave
one of his fundamental rules of action.
When he sold bill of goods on credit it
was his custom to Immediately subscribe
for the local paper of his debtor. So long
as his customer advertised literally and
vigorously he rested, but as soon as he be-
gan to contract his advertising space he
took the fact as evidence that there was
trouble ahead, and he invariably went for
his debt. "For," said he, "the man who
feels too poor to make his business known
is too poor to do business" This with
drawal of an advertisement is an evidence
of weakness that business men are not
slow to observe

Poetry.
CALEB AND RUTH.

UNCLE CALEB and Ruth, his wife,
Caring little for outside weather,
Fifty years of their welded life
Spent In this tiny house together.
Messy the roof and gray the wall,
Narrow the window, low the door;
But loves own sunlight hallOwed 1t all,
From raftered ceiling to sanded floor.
Silent to-day; but silver sweet
Voices of children long ago,
Keeping time with their restless feet,
Followed the mother to and fro.
Scattered afar from East to West,
Seeking their fortunes far and wide;
No one stays in the olden nest,
Where such beautiful memories hide.
Caring naught for the the desolate pain
OF the wind in the pine tree tops,
Caring naught for the grieving rain
That SO sadly over them drops.
Heeding as little the sunbeam's kiss,
Falling sweet from the summer sky,
In narrower house than this
Caleb and Ruth together lie.
Up where the many mansions wait,
Is there, wonder, a cottage small
Not too stately its pearly gate,
Not too shining its golden wall
Where these two may in peace abides
Heaven were none If these must part
Caleb away from her gentle side.
Ruth afar from his faithful hearth
Hand In hand from morning to night
Travelled these two the long earth-day;
Surely they walk through the fields of light,
Hand in hand on the shining way.

Which leaves to the Democrats ma
jority of 5000 votes, if we had a perfectly
fair election. But give us a registration of
the lawful voters and secret ballot, and
General Grant will get the electoral vote
in Kentucky in November of next year.
Already the Republicans have carried
every important city in the State, except
Louisville, Covington and Owensboro.
They have a majority in Newport, Mays
lasville, Frankfort, Hopkinsville, Hender-
son and Paducah. The human mind is so
constituted as to discount in the present
what is most probable in the near future.
With the secret ballot many old line Clay
Wings. many Douglas Democrats, many
original Union men, many Confederate
soldiers, and many others who are both
tired and diigusted with the eternal wran-
gle of demagogues, will vote for the Re-
publican party, and thus assist in electing
General Grant President in 1872.

The Election In Kentucky.

THE Louisville Commercial devotes much
space to q careful consideration of the gen.
eral results of the election in Kentucky,
from which we quote these paragraphs:
1.-THE Democratic press of the State is
in the habit ef estimating the colored vote
at from 10000 to $4,000, and of stating
generally that this vote was cast solidly
for General Harlan, and, by subtracting
these amounts from the Republican vote,
| they endeavor to show that the usual major.
| ity for its party has not been diminished.
But little reflection will dispel this delu-
sion. We estimate the population of Ken
| tucky, in rrund numbers, at !, 300, ,0C0, the
vote cast at 212, ,450, which allows about six
and one eighth of population to each vote
| polled. The negro population of the State
| is estimated at 215,000, and, by the same
ratio, its vote is only 5000. This is the
number of votes that should have been
given by that class of our population, had
| every one entitled to a vote actually cast
| it. But this has not been done. In
many localities the colored voters did not
vote at all. In some places, as at Lewis
port, the negroes were driven from the
polls, or went away to avoid danger. In
other places they were told by men
who claimed to be their friends
that they had better not go to the
polls, as bad men usually congregated there
during the time of election, which they
understood to be mild threats; and thus,
in one way or another, we estimate the
negro vote which was not cast at fully
ten thousand. This reduces that which
was actually given to about $4,000, and of
this we estimate that the Democratic
ticket re ceived fully 5000.
Next, the Democratic party had the en-
tire machinery of the election in its own
hands-that is, the appointment of all the
officers of the election, embracing two
Judges, one Sheriff, and one Clerk at each
election precinct. True, the law provides
that these offices shall be equally divided
between opposing parties, but this require
ment was openly, and in some localities
shamelessly, violated. How many fraudu-
lent votes they were thus enabled to cast,
and what fixed-up returns they had the ia
cilities to make, may be dimly conjectured
from the practices of the Tammany mag
mates. We have heard enough of what
has been done in this city to justify most
liberal deduction from the Democratic ma
jority. But let that pass. At Pleasure
vile, in Henry County, eleven minors
boys under 81 years of age-were allowed
to vote, and no doubt the same trick was
practiced at other voting precincts. We
will conclude with an analysis of the
| vote:
