A MAARKEN WEDDING.

An Interesting Ceremony in That
queer Little Island.
1t was a bright Sunday in June that I
chose for my visit to this little triangn-
lar island of Maarken, situated in the
ZuydeF Zee, whose Inhabitants, accord
ing to Washington Irving, have settled
conclusively, 10 their own minds at
least, the long-disputed question con-
cerning the situation of the Garden Of
Eden. Inclosed by a broad dyke, that
keeps out the encroaclrny waters Of
the Zee, these fishermen, with their
families, live their quiet lives. Many OF
the women, and even the men. have
never veutured beyond it's narrow lin

vailed over the whole island the day
of my visit. Following the direction
taken by the various groups. found
myself in front of the church, and

questions to them. Then he extended
his hands in blessing and solemnly
shook hands with first the groom, then
the bride, and the ceremony was ended.
Quietly, without word or sign TO OF

walked in the middle of the street to
their new home, which the groom, ac.
cording to custom. entered first, the
bride following about minute later.
both having removed their shoes and

cases the entire face is considerably
swelled. 1t is said to be contagious,
but is probably 90 only in severe and
virulent cases."
Prof. Law describes roup as follows:
Dizziness, sleepiness, neglect OF food,
ruffled feathers, unsteady walk, quick
ened breathing, with a hoarse wheeze
and an occasional growing sound. On
the tongue, at the angle Of union OF the
heak, or in the throat appear yellow
ish white films false membranes) firm
ly adherent to Redeemed surface, and
raw sores where these have been de-
tached. The nostrils may be completely
plugged with swelling and discharge SO
that breath can only be drawn through
the open bill. The Inflammation may
extend along the windpipe to the aerial
cavities and lungs, or along the gullet
to the intestines. In the first place
death may take place from suffocation'
and in the latter from diarrhoea."
Treatment. - The same authority
says: "Disuse raw grain and feed on
vegetables and buildings made of we'll
boiled oats, barley and Indian pudding.
Dissolve carbonate or sulphate Of soda,
or chlorate of potassia freely in the
water drunk. Remove the false mem
branes with a feather or fOrceps and
apply to the surface with feather a
nitrate Of silver lotion. If diarrhoea
supervenes, give teaspoonful Of Quin-
mia wine thrice day. It is all-im-
portant to change the run Of the chick
ems for time at least"

afflicted this way, for we have always
kept them in tight pens, but not toe
warm, in fact in pens where a single
inch wall Of boards is the only prOteC'

There was once a pretty chicken,

For he thought that there was nothing

So he always in the farmyard
Had a very forward way,

What they ought to do or says

That your goslings you should let
Go out padding in the water,
1t will kill them to get wet"

He began to her one day,
"That you wouldn't sit all summer
In your nest upon the hay.
Won't you come into the meadow,
Where the grass with seeds is filledY
IF should" said Mrs. Dorking,
"Then my eggs would all get chilled
"No they WON'T" replied the chicken,
"And no matter if they do,
Eggs are really good for nothing,
What's an egg to me or you"
whats an egg?" said Mrs. Dorking;
"Can it be you do not know,
You yourself were in an eggshell
But little month ago
And if kind wings had not warmed you
You would not be out today,

handicapped by Fraud.

Honesty is the best policy"-so
ne old saw runs, says Rev York Farm
Or. 1t is not very enobling motive
hardly creditable to anyone, but
still, as it is better to be honest, if we
can only make men honest as a mat
ter Of policy, Jet us do so. rather than
do nothing in that direction. It is not
many years since the United States was
very much larger factor in the Euro
pean trade in dairy products than is the
case to-day. The demand for our goods
was almost unlimited. To-day our
trade there is a mere ghost of its
former greatness, and 1t will hardly
ever again reach the old high-water
mark. We have lost the trade by dis
honesty. We have labored with a zest
that is seldom equaled in honest trade,
to sell filled cheese for a genuine arti-
Gle and hog-butter for its model, the
genuine product of the dairy. 1t is
hardly fair to use the word I'VE" in
this matter. Nine-tenths CT all this
rascality and rottenness came from IL
linois, that home Of hog-butter and
filed cheese, and it is there to-day that
the apologists for the frauds are found
in greatest abundance. The blot is
one which should be wiped out. Filled
cheese has received its quietus-hog-
butter needs the same legal status in
Illinois and some other states that 1t
has in New York and some of our
,neighbors. When these two swindles
are so handicapped that their profitable
manufacture will be impossible, our
trade abroad may be restored to us
and the consumption of genuine prod
ucts az homo be largely increased.
