prevent milk from turning sour. The
preparation is a weak solution of for

passed before any provision is made
for him The work of raising subscrip-
tions will be started at once.

Dublin RoothlacIss. 1850.

Among the populace of Dublin in
1880, says The University Magazine,
the shoeblacks were numerous and
formidable body. The polish they used
was lampblack and eggs, for which
they purchased all that were rotten In
the markets. Their implements con-
sisted Of three-legged stool a basket
containing blunt knife, called spud,
n PAINTERS brush, and an old wig. A
gentleman usually went out In the
morning with dirty boots or shoes,
sure to find a shoeblack sitting on his
stoool at the coHner of the street. The
gentleman put his foot In the lap OF
the shoeblack without ceremony, and
the artist scraped 1t with his spudd
wiped 1t with his wig, and then laid
on his composition as thick as black
paint with his painters brush.
The stuff dried with rich polish,
recurring no friction, and little inferior
to the elaborated modern fluids, save
only the intolerable odors exhaled from
eggs i'm n high state of putridity, and
which filed any house which was en-
tered before the composition was quite
dry. and sometimes even tainted the
air of fashionable drawing rooms. Pol.
ishing shoes, we should mention, was

fined to cities, people in the country be-
ing generally satisfied with grease.

THE TRAMP WON THE BET.

Carnival Time in Russia.

Shopping. shopping, shopping, goes

Words. Those who can prepare TO

articles of new clothing. but all make
preparations for a sumptuous feast. II
is interesting to watch the shops, es-

the ayidity with which every article OF
food is bought up, The butchers come
in, perhaps, for the largest share or
custom, as flesh, especially smoked
ham. is In universal demand. Ham
among all classes of the community
is indispensable for the breaking OF
the fast and the due celebration of the
feast. Dyed eggs are in universal re-
quest. The exchange of eggs, accom-
panied with kissing on the lips and
cheeks in the form of the cross, ac-
companies all gifts or exchange The
"koolitch" and "paska" have also to be
bought. The koolitch is sweet kind
of wheaton bread, circular in form,
in which there are raisins. 1t is orna-
mented with candied sugar and usually
has the Easter salutation on 1t: Chris
tos vozkress" (.Christ is risen'O, the
whole surmounted with large gaudy
red-paper rose.
The paska is made of curds, pyra-
midal in shape, and contains a few
raisins, and, like the former, has also
a paper rose inserted on the top. These
are sine qua non for the due observance
of Easter, but what relations they may
have, if any, to the Jewish feast of the
Passover 1t is difficult to see, although
in many other respects there Is strik-
ing resemblance to the service of the
temple in Jerusalem in the ritual of the
Russo-Greek church.
