no difference to the boys in blue who
were seated at those particular plates,

AT REAPING TIME.

The harvest supper has various names
in England, among them being the NELL
supper. harvest supper and harvest
home.
In Windsor, the farmers always
crown the last load of the season with
flowers, and an image, dressed to repre-
sent Ceres, is borne in procession.
The United States is about the only
country which has no established har-
vest customs. In some parts harvest
celebrations are held, but we have no
traditions such as they have abroad.
In Bavaria the last sheaf is fashioned
into the shape of a human being. with
a stick in one hand, wreath on its
head. and around it the peasants kneel
in prayer, not to the image, but to the
Supreme Being.
In some parts of England it is the
custom to throw water over the good
natured victims who ride in the cart
bearing the last of the grain and the
sport seems TO afford as much merri-
ment to the drenched as &c the drench-
ers.
The best authorities regard the harv-
est festival as of Jewish origin and
other nations followed the custom of Of
fering up the first fruits of their fields
to their gods. When the harvest was
over the heads of heather families were
wont to feast with the servants. This
led 10 the harvest supper which is now
celebrated.

The brial pipes used in the Uniteo
States were formerly imported to a

are now produced in very great variety
and of every quality. from the very

BARLEY Campbells romantic melo-

company has been carefully selected
with view to fitting each character
