There are four native modes Of making
butter in the empire Of Brazil. The first
is by putting the milk ina common
bowl and beating it with spoon, as you
would an egg. The second by pouring
the milk into a bottle, and shaking it till
the butter appears, when it is removed
by breaking off the top Of the bottle. The
third where the dairy is more extensive,is
performed by filling hide with the milk
which is Justify shaken by an athletic ma
tive at each end until butter is produced.
The fourth, which is considered to indi-
cate vast progress over any Of the pre-
ceding methods, consists in dragging the
hide or leathern vessel, filled with milk,
on the ground after gallopihg horse I'M
til it is supposed the butter is formed.
The milk is never strained and the butter
never washed.

Power of the Hand.

From the North American. s.. = ~----S
1t may be going too far to say that man
may Judge the character OF his fellow
man by the manner in which he "shakes
hands" But there is certainly signif-
canoe is those busy members of the body
which ''he who runs may read.'' The
creator Of Uriah Heep has taught us not
to trust the owners of limp, moist hands,
which close cordially on nothing save
their own possessions. Says commen-
tator on this subject: "It is the touch
of hand at a greeting which warns or
chills my heart, and makes me know to a
certainty how much or how little shall
like the person before me. If the fingers
close about my own with a short, quick,
convulsive grasp, I know that he will
snap, snarl, and finally quarrel, and that
the least that have to do with the owner
of those wilp digits, the better shall be.
If nervous, cold hand glides into my
own, and seems disposed to lie there,
without life. I know that my happiness
would be as nothing in that awful palm
But if the hand grasps yours and holds it
firmly, in strong, warm fingers, you are
safe in cultivating the friendship of the
OWutI. 1utSc uuuau uduuS. rom the
beginning of life they play an important
part.
All the greatness of earth has laid in
the hollow Of the hand. The books, the
music, the pictures, the wondersof archi-
lecture, the intricacies Of mechanism, the
mysteries of science and the government
of the countries, with all their god-like
beauties of color, sound, symmetry, use
fulness, progression and wisdom, have
lain within human hand. The highest
aspirations and realizations of the bla
are brought to light through the hand,
and the tenderest love and charity of the
heart make the hand their dispensator.
They can be tender ministers of comfort
and peace, yet as cruel and full of venom
as the bite of an asp.
And with al their power, with all their
charities, their tender touches, their
mischief are folded at last and
those who speak of us tell of the closing
of the eyes and the folding of hands as a
part of our going away" - q IL
