Eternal Friendships Anon. Young
Ladies.

Many and desperate are the VOWS and declar-
atoms No man shall ever sever them, is tle
burden OF their song. Admitting that they may
be trapped into matrimony, which, BY the way,
Is a most remote contingency, their husbands
shall only have the second place in their affec-
tions, is their declaration. They care about no
one but each other, and this they render evil
dent by attempting to snub Or treat with super
cilious indifference nine out OF every ten people
with whom they are brought in contact. One
cannot have thought without the other being
made acquainted with 1t; one cannot have a
new shawl or a new dress without the other
longing to procure one of a precisely similar
pattern. OF secrets they possess a countless
number, and Of each secret they are co possess
sors Traces of these secrets are ever coming
to the surface. You cannot be in the COMPANY
OF the fair damsels for an hour without being
unpleasantly informed that some people do not
think 80 much Of you as you are in the habit of
thinking of yourself, and that there are many
mysteries in circulation which must be left
mysterious SO far as you are concerned
The love the fair creatures bear toward each
other is often bubbling up, and thousand little
endearments and caresses are INDUCED in which
very quickly enable people to form an opinion
as to the state OF the case. A large norton of
the "TieDds'" time is spent in selecting gifts
TOT each other. The brooches, the charms, the
ear rings. the rings, the bracelets they wear
are all marks Of the intense affection in which
they are mutually held. They cannot be sepa-
rated without experiencing the keenest panes

not TOT several important facts In general
way tne DISPLAY OF affection, in its most exuber-
ant developments, Is nothing more nor less than
simple afiectation. 1t Is one of the crazes to
which young ladies of a sentimental tnrn oS
mind seem to be addicted; and which is invs-

Manner Of MiIking In Jersey.

a, M NJ Geo, 4: Warins, Jr., giving some notes
In the American A griculturist-says one custom
prevails on the former island which might Win
advantage be generally adopted. II is the
manner OF milking: the milk Tin both islands
being drawn, not into pals, as with US, but into
jug shaped cans, the opening being about four
inches diameter. In jersey this Is co yered with
Q cloth strainer, tied on 90 loosely that il saos
down several inches into the neck of the can.
In the bottom OF this bag there Is laid a shell tn
cetve the force OF tbs stream ae il is drawn
fiom the teat. The milk flows over the shell
and soaks through the cloth. This Is certsinly
the most cleanly manner in milking that could
be devised The wet cloth prevents ary foul
odor OF the stable from reaching the mass Of the
once held back, instead Of remaining I'm the
mix until it is carried TO the dairy to be strain
ed. The cloths are easily kept clean and aired, ,
on.
