The system of cream gathering, in
which so many dai:ymen are Interested,
is gaining many friends In all parts of
the north. The great object being to
lessen the work at home as well as to
obtain the greatest price in the sale of
butter. The Cooley system seems to be
leading far in advance of all others. and
for factories as well as for private diaries
it claims to have no equal. Notice the
advertisement wherein is set forth to
some extent the record of triumphs at
the great fairs and expostions, to which
should be added First Premium, Rhode
Island State Fair in 1888. 1t is indeed
wonderful what progress has been made
in the dairy business.

quently remarked that the author of
'Ben Hur" had in him the elements of a
dramatist. Their judgment upon Gen.
Lew Wallace will be sustained by his
play, "Commodus," in Harper's Maya
zine for January. The action of the dra-
ma develops several powerful scenes. the
vigor of which J. r. Waguelin, the artist,
renders with fidelity in as many illustra-
tions. One of the drawings, entitled
''This Batting thou shalt rue,' forms the
frontispiece of the magazine. There is a
suggestion of the Greek chorus in the
band of Bacchantes. The refrain of their
song, "On to Rome" dominates the
whole drama; it catches together in a
phrase the leading thread of the plot.

Gen. Harrison is more than a match
for the most enterprising reporter.
He firmly and absolutely but courte-
ously refuses to talk about cabinet ap-
Pointments, or to affirm or deny any
of the rumors in circulation. So all
the cabinet chatter may be set down
as nothing more nor less than the
,effervescence of reportorial magma

An important engineering enter
prise now in progress is railroad in
the Arctic circle. The Swedish and
Norwegian Railroad now building
from Lulea, on the Gulf of Bothnia, to
Luffoden, on the North Sea, is partly
situated within the Arctic circle and
is 200 miles farther north than any
railroad in Canada. An interesting
meteorological fact stated in relation to
this work is that the snowfall is bound
to be actually less than in some more
southern ATTITUDES, while the darkness
of the long winter nights has been
partly compensated by the light of the
aurora. The object in view in con-
structing this line is to tap the enor-
nous deposits of iron ore in the
Gellivara Mountains, the approx
mate exhaustion of the ore in the
Rilbao district rendering very deslr-
able a new field Of non-phosphoric ore
suitable for steel rail making.

their nearest of kinsmen. Before each
horse was n separate band. Then came
the groom, about 10 years old, all in
gold and fine silk, and mounted on Il
superbly gotten-up animal. Then an
other band was followed by troop of
twenty or thirty women, richly clad,
and all singing. The burden of their
song was hope that the bride should
be kind and obedient, and that her
mother should not domineer over the
bridegroom. There were dozen or
more bands. The drum was the pre-
dominating instrument and of all sizes

to the groom's home, her friends ac-
companying her and singing.
Their song was wish that the groom
would be kind and would listen to the
advice of the mother-in-law. At his
house presents were again to be given
this time to the brides friends. Tho
