Japanese Bride and Groom.

Quite as interesting as the scenery,
writes a correspondent Of the G'oe-
Democrat from Japan, were the move
ments of the bride and groom in the same
car with us. We afteTward learned that
he was Nagoya youth who had gone to
Kiota aud prospered IN business, and had
Just been down TO NagOya TO marry the
young grl chosen by his parents and a
90 between friend of the family lie
was a raw. callow youth in appearance,
and spreading h IS rug on the cushions,
lay down at half length and obliged the
bride TO sit bolt upright in small
space.
When he did sit up it was he who
leaned against the brides shoulder, iu-
stead of resting her head on his shoulder
in true wedding journey style. For the
whole day that we travelled together it
was his comfort and not hers that was
considered The groom hurried on board
the steamer and into the next train Of
cars, and. helping mself &c the only
remaining chair or seat, looked around
curiously u see where she WAS going TO
sit. The BRIDE smiled sweetly all the
time and did not seem to think it at all
footstool or baggage porter for her lord.
She wore a dark striped silk klmono
and an ecru obi, brocaded with pine
needles in black and gold. The japanese
reverse our customs in travelling, and
wear their best clothes when of on a
journey, in order, they say. that their
station may lie known and proper a;ten-
ton paid them. The brides attent on
was much occupied with h new gold
ring. the wedding ling being foreign
fashion that they have taken up with en-
thus.asm The gold band on the finger
is fast replacing the shaved eyebrows
and blackened teeth that used to disiin-
guish the married women, but they ad
here to the change in their har dress
ing and after marriage red Is no longer
worn. The gay red Grape petticoats,
the red folds in the neck Of the kimono
and the bits of red craTe tied in the hair
disappear on the wedding day, and the
japanese have the bitter but sadly true
mixim: Love flies with the red petit
coat" Any demonstration of affection
between married couple IS not only
considered bad form, but most disgust
ing by the japanese. and kisses are I'M
known, except for babies. Men, or
rather lubberly schoolbcys, and great,
hulking young soldiers are often seen ia
the street holding hands, or with their
arms around each others ne Ks, but
there are no sentimental tahleaux to be
seen between maidens and youths in the
ideal lovers lanes with which tbs pic
turesQue country scanned.

IT was standing rule with the late
James Freeman Clarke to use great dis
cretion in the routine of his life. Whe1
a youth he was threatened with sud.
den ending of his career on earth. But
by the exercise of prudence he reached
a very ripe old age, and almost up t,
Lis last hours was able to do q greai
amount OF work. When asked, shortly
before his death, how he could stanc
the fatigue of such continuous labor, il
view of his years, he said: Il hay,
never been in n hurry. have alwayi
taken plenty of exercise. 1 have al
ways tried to be cheerful, and 1 hav,
always taken all the sleep I needed.
By observing these rules the eloquen
divine secured all the good out of phys
zeal existence.

FARM AND GARDEN.


The earliest and quickest way to re-
duce bones known to me, says a Core
sponden. of the New York Tribune, is to
break the large ones into pieces about
the size of boys hand, place them in a
large iron kettle (the larger the better,
then fill the kettle with strong I've made
from wood ashes and boil them. In q
few hours all the softer bones will be
dissolved; the harder ones may be re-
turned to the next batch. After the dis
solution is accomplished, the liquid may
be mixed with the leached ashes, with
an equal quantity of well dried and pull
verified muck or other Garth. On land
where there is fair amount of humus,
this compost is one of the best known.
A half pint of the mixture ON a hill of
potatoes or corn works wonders; and
there is no better fertilizer for the vine
yard, where it has the effect not only to
produce large clusters and large berries,
but to greatly improve the quality of the
fruit There is nothing better for onions
than this, applied or sprinkled along the
rows after the first wedding. Hen man
ure should not be mixed with this COM
post, as the potash decomposes it, dis
charging the ammonia into the air, en-
failing the loss of its most valuable in
gredient.

OF favor. There is also much less Ia
bility OF disease where animals are fed
protein food. than where fed exclusively
on fat-producing food.
In the general process of fattening the
animal should be fed all the food that it
can ass'milate, and sufficient TO keep il
quiet, since exercise tends to waste of
SO much material as may be necessary to
restore the waste occasioned by muscular
effort So, TOO, if the temperature is
growing cold the animal should be kept
warm for the same reason. that while it
is necessary that every animal should
maintain u normal temperature. If this
must be supplied by food it occasions an
unnecessary waste. To avoid this con-
dition many prefer to complete their
feeding before the approach of very cold
weather, and think they make saving
thereby. A hog should occasionally be
fed small quantity of sulphur and some
charcoal to insure its health.

A Change of Seed.

The prevalent belief among farmers
that n change of seed is beneficial
a. \that the best seed is brought from 4
coli sr climate has been proved by tests
made at the Canadian experimental farm
at Ottawa. Ike vitality or terminating
ability for wins \ brought from Mani
toba was found Il be SO per cent, of
barley % per cent, and oats 9j per
cent, against 92, 73 and Is per cent.
respectively of seed procured in the
Eastern provinces of Canada. This fact
has most important significance in re-
gard TO the choice of seed. The aver
age yield of oats in the Southern States
is 70 to 25 bushels per acre OF grain,
weighing "a to % pounds per bushe,
and this low yield is due in great
measure to the use of seed of this in
ierior character Where oats imported
from Scotland and weighing 3 ounds
per bushel has been soMn in Southern
state the yield was over 60 bushels Ter
acre measured, and the grain was nearly
as plump and hearty as the seed used.
The same will no doubt apply to the
Southern wheat, of which the average
yield is no more than seven
bushels per acre. Mu,h the same
occurs in the Northern and Wcs'e rn
States, and, indeed, everywhere that
seed is used from the crops grown in
the locality and without selection. A
change of seed produces more vigorous
and productive crops, and the grain
necessarily possesses superior vitality.
The careful selection of seed is OF the
the greatest importance and isa matter
for present consideration and discussion.
