Roweoa, daughter Of Hengist. king Of
Friesland, pressed her lips TO the cup and
saluied Vortigern With n little kiss' From
q passage in 'Evelyn's Dairy, it appears
that men kissed each other in the streets of
London toward the end of the seventeenth
century. The Spanish conqueror found il
the custom prevalent in the New World
The kiss of peace Wss anciently given by
the faithful one 10 the other, aa a token OF
cordial love and affection. After the priest
had given the aslutaiion of peace, the dea-
con ordered the people to saiute each other
with an holy kiss. 1t was also given before
the Edcharist until the twelfth or thir-
tenth century. Toward the end of the
third century the kiss of peace wrs given in
baptism. Henry H.. of England, refused

when another traveller fastened in

In size equal with its head, and the an

quiet, and by morning 1t was we'll.
Tins traveller resides In the Ozark
mountain region In Arkansas, where
he had, as he said, witnessed many
such cures, not Of animals only, but
also of non, and that he believed it al
tntallible remedy, if soon applied. It
quickly relieves the sting Of a bee, and
may cure tho bite Of a cobra if immedi-
utcly applied outwardly, and little

How 1T PAYS TO RAISE CURRAN NrS.-
Let us look. for Il moment into the de-
tails Of growing, say half an acre Of
currants, and note what tho result Is
likely to DO. a piece of land fitted to
produce good crop Of potatoes Is in
good condition to set to currants. 10
set them four by fivo feet Will require
about twelve hundred bushes, and Lhcy
should cost about So per hundred, or
$50. During the first season potatoes
may be planted between the rows and
between the bushes, without materially
fnjuring the growth Of the bushes or
the yield Of the potatoes. During the
second year beans may be planted be-
tween the rows, which, with what fruit
is obtained, should pay the original 800.
And the third year they should produce
one and onc-half pounds to tho bush,
which, at SIX cents per pound, would
amount to $lGS. After the bush had
attained its growth, with good culture,
fair average yield would be about
three pounds to the bush, which, at six
cents per pound, would amouat TO
$2l6. The expense for labor and ma
nure annually would not vary materially
from that required on half an acre OF
potatoes after they were planted.

HOME-MADE MAcRAME LACE PILLOW.
For macrame lace either thread sup
piled for the purpose may be used; or,
as it Is rather expensive, fine string, a
pale brown color and four pence or six
pence per ball may be used, and looks
equally we'll. 10 make pillow your
self, get an old wooden box-your
grocer would probably give you one -
about eighteen inches long, twelve
broad and three or four deep. Fill this
with bran, and cover it tightly all
round the sides with piece of calico
or holland. Make slit in the top of
the cover, and with spoon fill in as
much moro bran as you can squeeze in.
In this way you get the pillow much
nrmer. Sew up the slit with a strong
thread, and then cover all round with
piece of bod ticking, putting the
straight lines tho length of the box,
as they are a guide In keeping the
threads straight. Put an extra piece
OH at the side, in order to form little
pocket, in which to keep the pins,
crochet-hook and knitting pin required
In the work. The two latter are used
in the Solomon's knots. The thread is
fastened to the pillow by strong PIN,
and the more pins used for fastening
the knot as you proceed with the pat
tern, the tlrmer and more even will the
work be.
