Seasons For Marriage.

With regard to the seasons for cele-
brating marriage the church was for
merly very strict. The parish register
for st. Mary's Beverly contains the fol-
lowing entry under date Nov. 25, 1911:
When Advent comes, do thou refraine
Till Hillary set ye free again.
Next Septuagesima saith thee nay,
But when Low Sunday comes thou may.
Yet at Rogation thou must tarrie
Till Trinitie shall bid thee marry.
The above appears to have been pop
ular verse to inscribe in registers, for,
with slight variations, it is to be met
with in several parishes. Philomath's
almanac for the year 1874 contains sim
liar rules in prose:
TIMES PROHIBITING MARRIAGE THIS YEAR.
Marriage comes in on the 18th of January,
and at Septuagesima Sunday it is out again
until Low Sunday, at which time it comes in
again and goes not out till Rogation Sunday.
Then it is forbidden until Trinity Sunday, from
whence it is unforbidden till Advent Sunday,
but then it goes out and comes not in again
till the 18th of January next following.

Smokeless Powders.

The composition Of smokeless powders
is kept profound secret by all the in
ventors and by the governments which
purchase them. Nearly all of them con-
sist essentially gun cotton or other To- =
er forms of nitrocotton. acted on by
solvent, such as acetic ether or acetone,
which reduces the nitrocellulose to Wis
cous paste. The paste is then rolled out
into sheets and the solvent allowed to
evaporate.
The sheets are left as dense, horny
substance and are cut first into strips,
and then the strips are cut crosswise into
grains of any size. or the substance can
be left in strips or in a fibrous form.
The French were the first to use smoke
less powder, and this they did in the Lee
bel gun. It is believed that this Vieilles
powder was made by mixing pieric acid
with the paste as above. This powder
was found rapidly to deteriorate and had
to be abandoned. The Germans intro
duced a smokeless powder in 1880, nj
trated gun cotton like that of the French.
1t also was wanting in stability. A
first class smokeless powder must not
be too violent in its action; must be able
to stand extremes of heat and cold; must
not absorb water or deteriorate other
wise while in store. And it is a prob
lem to find suitable powders to answer
all these conditions. baltimore Amer
