A Living in the Poultry Yard.

Raising poultry, for meat or eggs, Is Il
trade which requires apprenticeship and
experience to make profit from, not tax

small nocks, in the yards of mechanics,
clerks, bankers, and clergymen, from
which. if no money profit is realized, a
| large profit in pleasure and recreation is
secured As IL rule small flock will pay
| a better profit than Il large one, proper
| tionatcly, for the reason that the waste
| from the kitchen-bread, meat and vcge-
tablcS-from an ordinary sized family will
nearly fed u flock of a dozen, while it
would be so small an item, in Il flock large
enough to make living from, that its

number of eggs suddenly falls off, the rea-

and the most important, is love for the
work. willingness TO work day and
night, thorough system that no detail

TlhTING CHINA.
Some Beautiful backgrounds For Flow
ers and How to Apply the Tint.


ers and How to Apply the Tint.
In painting flowers on china harmoni
Gus back ground adds very much to the eff
feet. For instance, white flowers, WITH
touches of pink, such as apple blossoms or
azaleas, look well on a tint Of rose pink
matching the pinl, in the flowers. Pure
white flowers, with cool, green tints in the
shadows, should be on pale green ground
and yellow flowers on olive. Modern
Priscilla gives further hints on this sub
ject, as follows: Maize, apple green, deep
blue green, celadon, pearl gray and jon
Gull yellow are very satisfactory as tinting
colors, requiring no additional fux.
Jonquil yellow is an especially valuable
color, the light tints resembling the ivory
of the Worcester ware, and far more salts
factory than ivory yellow in working and
in firing. All flowers look well upon this
ground.
Brown green, with one-third fux,
makes beautiful olive for yellow flowers,
and the same with maize, in the proper
ton Of one third each, makes another soft
olive tint bordering on amber.
Deep blue green and apple green in
equal parts make a turquoise blue which
fires more satisfactorily than the turquoise
that comes already prepared in tubes. By
using larger proportion Of either color
we have Il turquoise green or turquoise
blue
Rose pink is a mixture Of carmines,
Eas ( aud .. Carnation No. l, salmon
aud iiuE IN equal parts, makes beauti-
luI Tint IF shrimp pink.
TIMING colors should be we'll rubbed
down With an equal quantity of tinting
oil, taking little turpcntine also on the
palette knife.
Having carefully outlined the design in
water color and wiped the china with a
soft rag, the tint should be applied as
smoothly as possible with the BRUSH then
lightly struck with pad of chamois skin
filled with cotton, but not made hard IN
til every portion has been touched and the
tint made even and smooth. This should
DO continued until the surface is fine
grained and soft, like kid, to the eye. The
tinting oil keeps it in a condition to be
worked over quite a long time. If it dries
too quickly, too little oil has been used; if
net quickly enough, it contains too much
oil. 4 little experience will enable one to
Judge correctly.
patt.3ns Of the design that have been
accidentally covered with the tint may be
removed with soft rag folded two or
three times to form a point. If the tint is
quite dry, the rag should be moistened
with littlo alcohol, care being taken not
TO let it be too wet, as the alcohol easily
spreads.

Fashions Echoes.

Flower pins hold their own through
