Butter Making.

The attention of farmers and dairy
men is particularly called othe notices
of the "Gilt-Edge Butter Maker" which
are appearing in this paper from tirle
to time. Ii is confidently claimed that
the use of this preparation increases the
amount of butter from six TO ten per
cent; that the flavor is better and n
beautiful color secured; that the time
consumed in churning is greatly short
ened. and hat the keeping qualities are
much improved-the natural conse-
quence of all which being that butter
made by it is always in demand at ?
handsome advance on the price of the
ordinary article. Judging from the tes-
timonialS given. these claims are not
eNtravagant. and the ..Gilt-Edge"
should prove a valuable acquisition to
every butter maker.

Venetian Marriages.

The Venetains hare had 4 practical
and strictly business-like way Of arrang-
inc marriages from the earliest times.
The shrewdest provision has always
been made for the good Of the State,
private and public interest being con
suited, the small matter Of the affections
has been left TO the chances of asSocia-
ton. and i. does seem that Venetian
society has ever dealt severely with
husbands or wives whom incompatible
" forced { seek consolation outside Of
matrimony. Herodotus relates that the
Nlyrisn Veneti sold their daughters at arc
ton to the highest bidder; and the fair be.
ing thus comfortably placed in life, the

would take them with such dover .

pensation. The auction was discon
tinued in Christian times, but marriage
contracts still partook of the form of :

The Vancouver independent. (Vancouver, W.T. [Wash.]) 1875-1910, 1879-04-10

A remarkable instance of the increase
in the fisheries of region, from agencies
only indirectly those of man, has lately
been brought to light on the coast Of
France. A vessel loaded with so-called
Portuguese oysters was wrecked six or
seven years ago ON the sand bar, at the
mouth of the river Gironde, and its con-
tents were scattered in the water. They
seemed to find it suitable abode, a. it
has recently been ascertained that they
have multiplied to an extraordinary de-
gree. All the rocks along the coast for
twenty-four miles are covered with oys-
tsrs, Of which O.0O0, 900 were gathered
in 1875, $4,000, 900 in 1875, and $780,
100000 in 1877. OF these the green
ones bring readily fifteen cents per
dozen, BY the Wholesale in Paris while
white oysters from the Same place arc
worth two Of three times ~ much.

Rich Mems Sons.

The President of one Of the largest
banks said to us day or two since, that
a rich mans son had just left his place,
and he was the last man Of the kind he
would ever employ. The man was faith
full honest, and fulfilled intelligently
and we'll all the duties required Of him.
but Just as he had become accus-
toned to his work, he found out it was
too combining, and raw clerk had to be
put in his place. A bad look this for
rich young men; but it is the old story
repeated for the thousandth time. If
rich mems sons will not endure the
drudgery by which nearly all their faith
ers secured money and position, they
must take secondary place in the next
generation; and oftener they drop out Of
sight amid the idle, worthless herd, if
indeed, they escape the association with
loafers and criminals. What say the
labor reformers to facts like these, for
facts they are beyond question. Nearly
every man in any leading position in the
community began life poor Let the
sons of rich men take warning and go to
work honestly and faithfully every day
if they hope to fill the positions honora-
bly held by their fathers.-Tribune

Silk Photographs.

1t is stated that firm of silk manu-
facturers in Lyons have succeeding in
obtaining photographs upon silk. Ever
since the discovery of that wonderful
art efforts have many times and oft been
made to secure the result that has at
last been realized. Under the circum-
stances, it can scarcely cause surprise
that the process has not been divulged,
though there is ground to believe that
the prints are made with salts Of silver.
Several pieces Of silk have been exhib-
tied with a variety of Photographic pic
lures printed on them, some of them be-
ing large medallions of paintings by the
old masters. If the Lyons firm succeed
in establishing a new industry, surely
no one will grudge tn, m that need Of
praise to which, indeed, whatever may
be the final outcome of their invention,
they are already entitled. Cassell's

He was lad of thirteen. He spit

his hat was ancient and greasy, and his
big flat feet seemed to be waiting for a

he pushed his toes into the wet sand. 81

a school-house I'm nervous. Some
things going to happen to me this week.
III be taken home in wheel-barrow
with big cash in my heel or this toe
almost cut of. That will mean four
weeks on crutch, and they don't allow
lame boy to go to school and crutch up
and down the aisles. Or s'posin' I &c
home with the palpitation of the heart
The old lady has had it, and l won't
more than get into the house before she'll
have me tucked mp on the lounge, the
camphor bottle down, current Jelly and
sponge cake in the distance, and she'll
call out to the old gent
"'Father, it's no use Of thinking OF
sending this boy to school. He looks
stout and healthy, but he's a mere
shadder. The close atmosphere Of tn.
school-room will kill him before snow
falls
