The ScalIop in the Markets.

In New York markets Rhode Island
scallops have a reputation for excellence
that may or may not be deserved, for in
that city "Oyster Bay asparagus is a
label put on almost all punches of that
vegetable as soon as the product of New
Jersey arrives; all small hard clans are
Little Necks," although that part of
Long Island does not market over fifty
thousand bushels in year, and the quail
lty OF tenderness and flavor varies as it does
with blue Point oysters, a term now
used for most small oysters, as 'Saddle
Rock'' is for large ones, although no
oysters have been taken from that rock in
twenty years. So much for a reputation:
but the expert housewife looks the differ
emu lots OF scallops over, passes by the
white ones, and buys those of yellow
tint. The facts that the meat of the seal
lop is naturally faint yellow, but soaking
whitens and Injuries it. This soaking
in fresh water is done to make them swell
and measure more, and it increases their
bulk by about a third until the frying pan
has done its work, when they will be found
to have shrunken to less then the original
size; hence it is best to avoid the white
meats if possible. 1t is probable that the
price for unwatered scallops would be
better if all shippers would agree to stop
the practice, and then all scallops would
be "Rhode Islands, although market men
say that some from that State are watered.
The practice is a bad one, because it in
lures the sale of the meats, as may be seen
by comparing the prices in the markets.
The scallop is never shipped alive in the
shell, because it breaks easily and does not
live more than day or two out of the
water; besides, being so bulky, the freight
would be higher. Fred Mather, in
Appletons' Popular Science Monthly for
August.

LOVE AND LIBERTY. True unity is
possible only in love, and if we be knit to-

rather than the intirmties Of each other

has been withheld. Rev W. A. Shank

WoRLDLINEss. That which keeps men
back from a free and ready acceptance of
the good news of the Gospel is worldli-
ness, a sort of satisfaction with the con-
ditions of things as they now exist; a love
of the world, and an indisposition to
change the habits and modes of life to
which they are accustomed-these are the
things that keep men out of heaven They
do not refuse the offers of salvation be-
cause there is insufficient evidence that
these offers are real. They do not deter
mine in favor of the god of this world be
cause there is insufficient proof that there
is an almighty and supreme God OF the
