Promise of Marriage in italy.

1t is not easy to convey to the for
sign mind generally the enormous
Importance which is attached in
Italy to a distinct promise of mar
riage. It, indeed almost amounts,
morally speaking, to marriage itself,
and the breaking Of it is looked upon
socially almost as an act of infdelity
to the marriage bond. A young girl
who refuses to keep her engagements
is called a civetta-an owlet-prob-
ably because owlets are used as q
decoy all over the country IN sharing
and shooting all small birds. Be
that as it may, the term is 9 bitter
.reproach. 1t sticks to her who has
earned it and often ruins her whole
life. 49,.

A CURIOUS ART.
Some Information About Incrusted and
Painted Enamels. &25

Some About Incrusted and
Painted Enamels. &&5 e
OF enamels there are two sorts, en-
tirely distinct. The first are the in
crusted enamels and the second are
the painted enamels. Enameling
consists in applying to a metal sur
face a powder composed of pounded
slick, or, to- put it in the simplest
form, of glass colored with metallic
oxides, and then fixed by fire. Cham
bers Journal says it is obvious that
the transition was easy from letting
colored glass in to gold or silver set
tings to melting the glass into its
place SO that it adhered at the back.
The earliest enamels tell their own
story-they are s'cloisonne," that is
to say, precisely as jewels were set in
a framework, Of metal, SO frameworks
of metals were fashioned to contain
the glass melted into these cells.
This was the construction of
'~'cloisonne" enamel: First of all q
fine band Of gold was soldered on to
the base, standing up from it at right
angles and contorted to form an out
line such as was desired to be given
to the ornamentation. If green was
to be the color for leaves, then each
leaf was formed Of the band and closed
to contain the green. Each petal of
a red EOS would in like manner be
inclosed SO as to form a gold pocket
in which the red paste would be
melted into glass. Specimens of
''~cloisonne" enamel of European man
%ufacture are rare. The Louvre col
lection comprises hardly more than
one example, but that is a magnifi-
cent one, the cover of a book of the
Gospels. $751;. - 4

Raising Roots.

George W. Franklin, the we'll
known Iowa sheep breeder, recently
read q paper on this subject from
which we take the following: :
ssMy experience this year growing

obstacles unforeseen and apparently
unavoidable. In the FIRST place the

not be prepared as early rs / would

lateness, would not permit Of replant-
ing. The ground was plowed deeply
both in the fall previous and in the
spring, narrowed several times, and
aoated with q plank float It was
then marked with rows thirty inches
apart, and the seed drilled. After cul-
tivationi it was such as would be neces-
sary in growing onions. the principal
object being to keep clean Of weeds
and to stir the ground often. / used
both the horse cultivator and the
wheel hoe, it being SO much easier.
/ estimate that the cost Of growing
an acre Of roots to be about
as follows: Flowing, 81; har-
rowing, fifty cents; floating fifty
cents; seed, 81; drilling, twenty-five
cents; hoeing and wedding, 81; culti-
walton, $1.25. Total cost would be
$8 for growing an acre Of imangels,,

Feed wet or . X

Observation-Disclosures E0SME
One OF the largest feeders q SWING Ing
gives his experience and judgment
as follows: II find that Il ! take ten
bushels OF meal and wet it IN cold
water, and feed twenty-five hogs with
It, they eat it well, but If ! take tne
same quantity and cook it, it doubles
the bulk and it will take the same
number of hogs twice as long to
It and I think they fatten twice as
fast in the same length OF time"
Professor Stewart in commenting on
this saws he took two lots OF three
pigs each from the same hitter,
weighing 225 pounds each lot. LOT
one had corn meal soaked twelve
hours in cold water. Lot two had
corn meal cooked; each had all they
would eat, and each had a COCK OF
early cut clover every day. Lot n
consumed all pounds OF meal, M
gained APO pounds or 40. pounds
each. Lot two gained 600 pounds or
200 pounds each. On figuring it an
other way, he got eleven pounds OF
pork for a bushel of meal soaked in
cold water, and 16.47 pounds
for a bushel when cooked, a gain OF
nearly five and one-half pounds to
the bushel. getting half as much
again for his corn by cooking it.
Professor Stewart further says that
..by good management the general
feeder may reach with raw corn
eight pounds, with raw meal, ten
pounds, with boiled corn twelve
pounds, and with boiled meal fifteen
pounds of live pork per bushel."-

Vines on Houses.

There is a prevailing opinion that
vines make houses damp, for which
reason there are not nearly so many
cottages and houses beautified with
vines as there should, be. 1t is only
when. the climbers r allowed to
cover the caves and obstruct the
cutters, or find their way under the
shingles, that they become objection
able, and these objections should. OF
course, be carefully guarded against.
Vines should always be cut down
below the roof. 1t is a little trouble
to do this once a year, but we cannot
get even our shoes blackened without
some trouble. Those who know how
beautiful and how cozy looks a
cottage covered with vines will not
object to the few hours labor it re-
quires to keep vines from stopping
up the gutter. Vines really make
the walls dry. The millions of root
let's by which they adhere to the
walls absorb water, and an examina-
tion will prove a vine-covered wall
to be las dry as an old bone" One
great advantage of q v~ine-covered
cottage, not often thought of, is that
it is cooler in summer and warmer
in winter than when there is but q
mere naked wall.-Farmers Voice.

Trials of Toll Men.

Atthe prasentamOng the trying posi-
lions is that OF bridge toll keeper. AT
all the bridges in the city dozens Of
persons apply daily to cross, saying
they have no money. When refused
they usually curse the toll man,
threaten him, and in cases want "to do
him up" "There are twenty-five peo-
pie here to cross daily without money"
said Toll-keeper Duff, Of the Union
bridge yesterday. A fellow had just
given him curSng, when he was sent
back to the Ohio side.
The most difficulty In this line is
caused at this bridge, as these people
necessarily have to walk to this side OF
the bridge to see il they can get across,
and when they have TO go clear back
they get mad. Mr. Duff was sitting in
front Of the Office few days ago, and
heard big racket. He looked and
saw a Hungarian running along the
trestle work. He had climbed over
the railing to the trestle and got
around at the rear of the Office. The
toll keeper yelled for him to stop, put
be would not. A race then ensued.
The official had the advantage as he
had the walk 10 race on, and the Hun
had the ties. Near the middle OF the
trestle. The Hungarian stumbled aud
came near going through to the river
below. He was collared and brought
back, at first saying he had no money,
and then producing wallet full. lie
paid and went on.

persons thought that this signfed that
the plant would go on soon, but this Is
not the case, as the starting OF any

plant is a fine switchs from the Pan

You can't get the permit unless you
