the Duchess of Edinburg, has not in

the latter does of her elder sister the
Princess of Wales but in intellectual
gifts she is fully match for. either.
She is a great favorite with her father,
and wished to accompany him on his
visit to Iceland at the g Millenial Festi-
var' Of 1874, but the length and stormi-

objection. Criously enough, both she

LOve-Making in Portugal
Norristown Herald.

The mode of making love in Portugal
is very simple but it lacks energy and
the true inwardness of the American
article. The Portugal young man pays
his address by simply standing in front
of the house occupied by the object OF
his affection, while the young lady looks
down approvingly3 from an upper win
dow, and that's all there issof it. No
gum-drops, no measuring of waists with
arms, no peanuts, no gazing into the
liquid depths of loye-melting eyes, no
and-so-forth. It is great saving ofthe
old mans gas and fuel, but on a cold
night the young man is liable to have
his ears frozen, unless he carries
a stove In his eoat-tail pocket These
silent courtships, we are told some
times continue for very long periods be
fore the lover can ask the important
question or the lady return the final
answer. There is big roomI for i'm.
provement in the matter of Portugal
love-making.

LOVe-M

Summer is eminently the season for
love and love-making. probably because
it is q period Of comparative leisure.
When young people meet together at
the seaside or mountain hotels, when
they indulge in communion of spirit,
while the gentle moon silvers the waves,
or fringes the fresh trees with subdued
radiance, all the rough questions of the
daily business of life are toned down.

alton on which to build lifelong I'M
ion, which is likely enough, true, as far
as experience teaches, but for all that
who wishes to be bereft of that short,
sweet experience, which idealizes affec-
ton, and raises it beyond criticism?
What would not either man or wo-
man give who has once INDUCED in a
genuine kitten love, to feel once more
the desolating grief or overpowering
joyfulness of that happy period. tHa
1t is the fashion nova days to laugh
at q love which sees perfection in it's OBJ
ject, to sheer at its blindness, and make
jokes of it's self-abnegatian, but is there
in the whole list of human virtues a
sentiment more generous Or ennobling?
When romances were written, describ-

a high standard Of honor and fidelity

CUSTOMS WETFl CANDLES.

The customs and superstitions connected
with candles are extremely numerous. A
letter in the Times of the 25th of March,
1878, relates to sales ''by inch of candle:"
"When the bidding is opened asmall candle
similar to vesta-is lighted; at each
bid new one is lighted, and if no new
bid is given before it goes out, a second,
and on that going out without bid, a
third candle is lighted. The st bidder at
the time the third candle goes out is de-
clared the purchaser. In PepyS' Diary,
under the date 9th of November, 1860, we
read: "To our Office, where we met all for
the sale of two ships by an inch of candle
the first time that ever saw any of this
kind-where observed how they do invite
one another, and at last how they all do
cry, and we have much to do to tell who
did cry last" The word cry used here is
evidently the same as our modern wore
'bid." The custom like many an other,
has not wholly died out in England, as tho
following from Bristol paper of the goth
of March, 1873, proves: 1.-The practice Of
letting by inch of candle still prevails in
the County of Dorset. At the annual let
ting of the parish meadow of Broadway,
near Weymouth, which occurred few
weeks ago, an inch of candle was placed on
piece of wood nine inches square, and
lighted by one of the parish officers, the bid
dings were taken down by one of the parish
officers, and the chance of taking the meadow
was open to all while the candle was burn.
ing. The bidder before the candle went out
was the incoming tenant. This year tbs
candle was extinguished suddenly. AN

The little house wren (1roglOdyteS aedomI
is bird of wide distribution, but We know
him best in the woods of the far West,
whether in the cottonwoods of the river
valleys, or the aspens just below the timber
line on the lofty mountains. He is every
where the same quick, saucy little fellow,
and in the spring and summer an incessunt
and voluble singer. We have never heard
him to greater advantage than once upon
time when, under burning sun, we had
crossed an arid desert in the western part
of Nevada. After days tedious march
over sands shimmering with heat, and
without vestige of verdure in sight for
long weary hours, we came suddenly to
the green valley of the Truckee river, and
were soon reclining on the velvety sward
beneath the refreshing SHADE of II grove of
grand old cottonwoods. The songs of
birds greeted us on every hand, for almost
the entire feathered population of the
country were attracted to the narrow
valley of the river by the cool, shady
retreats afforded them; and of all the
voices we heard the merry and incessant
Cabling of the little wrens pleased us most.
The little singers were ever busy creeping
about the huge rough lower branches;
now peeking into knot hole, now pecking
a spider from crevice In the bark, and
every few minutes halting in q large fork,
where, with head raised and throat swelled
and vibrating, they poured forth a
sprightly, gabbling warble. The song of
this wren is pleasing chiefly from its
cheerfulness and volubility, and the anus
ingly dictatorial manner in which it is
deliyered.-Robert Ridoeway, in Harper'S
