Matrimonial Red Tape.

Marriage is always a solemn matter.
but in Europe, for non-residents, it is
almost impossible. Miss McGraw and
Professor Willard Fiske were recently
married at Berlin with endless formal
tiles -one day by civil marriage and
the next with religious ceremony.
Minister White mentioned at the we'd
ding breakfast that there had been
interviews with ministers to secure
dispensations from publication of the
banns; interviews with various other
official personages to relieve our
friends now 50 happily united from
long and tedious formalities; and
finally yesterday . marriage before the
civil authorities, done, I am bound to
say with completeness, a thorough
ness, q provision for every possible
contingency, an amount of reading and
signing Of paper, which filed us all
with establishment and. admiration.
And now we have had the religious
ceremony, which our friend Auerbach
declares an, exceedingly beautiful one.
and our friends may fairly be put upon
the list Of muoh-married peoplc."-

THE materials used for writing have
varied in different ages and nations.
Among the Egyptians. slices OF lime
stone, leather. linen and papyrus-es-
pecially the last-were universally en-
ployed. Tho Greeks used bronze and
stones for public monuments, wax for
memorandums, and papyrus for the or
dinary transactions of life. The kings
of Pergamus adopted parchment. and
the other nations Of the ancient world
chiefly depended on the paper of Egypt
But the Assyrians and Babylonians en-
ployed for their public documents.
their historical annals, and even for
their title deeds and bills of exchange,
tablets, cylinders and hexagonal prisms
of terra Gotta. Some Of these cylinders,
still extant, contains valuable records
ofancicnt history. To this indestructible
material, and happy idea of employing
it in this manner, the present age is in
debted for detailed history of the As
syrian Monarchy; while the decades OF
Livy, the plays Of Leander and the laws
of Ahacreon, confidedto a more perish
able material, have either wholly OF
partially disappeared among the wreck
Of empires. .. ..-

THE DAIRY.

SUCCESS in butter-making depends
largely on the prompt cleaning of the
dairy utensils. Every utensil, after be.
ing used, must be oleansed Immediate
ly in order to prevent taints in the
milk. cream or butter.
The query raised, why grass colors
butter yellow, instead of green, is an
swered by Prof. Arnold in the New
York Tribune. He says that chlorophyl,
the green coloring matter of plants, is
neither digested nor appropriated by
milk-giving animals, while the yellow
fats which abound in grass are assimi-
lated without change.
SKINNED cheese, says an exchange,
has received the black eye it has long
deserved. Illinois creamery skins are
selling in New York at from three to
five cents q pound, which is about half
what whole milk cheese is worth. The
practice of the creameries of taking off
all the cream they can get, and then
der, has had its day. The practical full
stock, with just as little as possible
taken off the nights milk, is the COM
ing cheese, and the nearly worthless
commodity made by some of the cream
cries will be forced out of the market.
INFLAMMATION of the udder, says the
american Ddiryrndn, may be brought
on by cold, congestion of the milk ducts
or by over feeding, and consequent
feverish condition. A sudden shower
on a hot day when the COW was heated
and perspiring is sufficient cause; or
il the cow should lie down on wet grass
or upon wet ground with full udder,
that might produce it. The remedy is
to give cooling laxative, q pound of
epson salts, for instance, followed by
an ounce of saltpeter. The udder
should be emptied frequently, and if
the milk is clotted in the bag, inject q
pint of solution of carbonate of soda,
by a metal syringe, into each quarter
where the milk is clotted. and use a
silver milking tube to draw it of in fif-
teen minutes, If it cannot be done in the
ordinary manner. ''r...

A remarkable cure effected In a stubborn
case is thus recorded by our Berhville corre-
spondent, to whom the invalid made the
statement which he gives as follows: Mrs
Jscob Sunday, Of Jefferson Township, was,
for several years, . severe sufferer, AMI un-
der the treatment Of good physicians. She
grew worse, and was confined to the house
for three months, unable to walk, and hardly
able to sit or lie. Several weeks ago she re-
solved to try the Hamburg Drops Very
shortly after she had taken . dose Of the
remedy, she experienced relief, and was able
to walk across the 70 ON. She continued to
take the medicine and recently declared her
self entirely cured, and is able to attend to
her daily work as well as when seventeen
years of age.

IT WAS recently remarked by Prof.
Msudsley that one striking feature OBJ
served by medical men in cases of hal
lucination is that the patients cannot be
sounds they hear and the smells they
that the sensations received are the re-
suit of an excited state of their nerves.
Hallucination often extends to but one
wise in a perfectly normal condition.
It may arise either from an idea on
which the mind has dwelt closely, or
from excitement of the sensory nerves.
1t is said that Newton, Hunter, and
others of equal eminence, could, at will,
picture forms to themselves until they
appeared to be realities.

ever, q acontagious disease, and herd

It from those that have been on low and

dashed along he thought of his friend
but, no, that would not do; to tell
him would fasten q joke upon himself
for life. He thought of quitting the
carnival without hat or friend. So,
tumbling along against one and an
other, till ut last he found himself in
the supper-room, here, disgusted
and desperate, he flung himself
into the first vacant seat at the supper
table. He called the attendants, and
ordered the first thing that came into

chocolate. Many minutes did not pass.

with its red and yellow splotches blaz-
ling IN his face. The old man, too, sat
beside her. She lifted her dark eyes,
and, with smile, she looked at our
cavalier. who was crimson with shame
and vexation, and was about to quit the
table, when she extended her hand,
touching him on the arm, and said:
Stay, signor, l beg of you, and par
take OF some refreshment. / would
once moro listen to your speech, so full
of poetic feryor. Do be seatedr'
He felt like a fool. He withdrew his
delicate hand. He looked her full in the
face-her horrid nose was laughing at
him. Striving to appear cool, he alb
ruptly retorted: --....- ..--. .
81 would be very happy, madam, to
comply with your kind Invitation, but
am fearful that your nose will usurp the
functions of your mouth unless you cut
it off. Shall help you to knifep"
necessity Of blood-lctting." She raised
her beautiful little hand, and, with a
graceful movement removed tho hid

then. with the most precise care, placed
1t upon an elegant silk handkerchief
which in the meantime the old man lay

Divine justice! What do beholdP
Perfection more perfect than e'er be-
fore! What can say or do?" were the
exclamations of our amazed cavalier,
when he at last discovered that the
nose was an artificial one. The deoep-
ton was complete. What could he
say or dO-fall down at her seat and
ask her pardonf Yes. He arose from
the table and was about to PROSTATE
himself. when simultaneously they arose
also, and in an instant more the old
man, by few dextrous movements,
dashed off his disguise. Strengthened
his form. and stood before him a splen-
did specimen of youthful manhood.
The cavalier was about to speak. She
prevented him by introducing her COM
panion As her husband, and then, with
sweet goodnight, and smile that
the angels might envy, they turned and
left the cavalier in q condition worse
than confounded.-M y Homo Jour.
