Curious Test for a Husband.

Both in the northern and western islands of Scotland the natives have some peculiar customs unfamiliar to the dwellers of the mainland. One of these, known as the marriage test" is practiced in the island of St. Kilda, where the population barely exceeds a hundred The desire among the islanders to increase this number does not seem to be exceptionally strong, and every man, before he is deemed suitable for a husband has to perform an evolution with no little bodily risk. The St. Kildans are, of course, adept rock climbers, and the aspirant for matrimony is therefore subjected to tDe test of balancing himself on one leg on a narrow ledge overhanging a precipice, bending his body at the same time in order to hold the foot of his other leg in his hands. If found lacking in courage the maiden with draws her betrothal. and should the man fall over the ledge it is presumed that, in his case, be will be disqualified

ODD NAMES IN MECHANICS.
Foreigners Have Hard Work TransIatins
 some English Words.

some English Words.
 The English language has been en. riched by many words drawn from other tongues to facilitate direct and comprehensive expression on all sub- jects.
 Within the language itself a similar principle has prevailed, and old words of well-established meaning have been adopted in the sciences and arts to designate certain things or operations that seemed to resemble those from which the names were taken. In their new relations these words have strictly technical meanings.
 Their suitability is often obvious enough in English, but they can rarely be rendered in their exact technical sense into their actual equivalents in foreign tongues.
 A number Of words drawn from the animal kingdom for use in the mechan- ic arts are enumerated by a writer in Straps and Buckles. The maehinist employs a dog on h.s lathe; he takes a hog cut, if the tool will stand it; the castings are made from pigs of iron, which in turn were fed from q sow.
 Work is set upon horse or buck, and punched or bent by convenient bear. Hoisting is done by crab, and convenient cat is q part of the outfit of a shop crane and q kit of tools is ever on hand.
 4 crow helps to straighten work, 9 jack to Int if. mule pulley aids in driving machinery that a donkey en- zine turns. A fish connects parts end to end, or strengthens q broken beam: shells are used all over; a worm does powerful but quiet work.
 A cock shuts off the water; one kind of a ram raises it and another does heavy work. a printing press has fly; the first locomotives had a grass hopper valve motion and drive, and butterfly valves are common.
 HerriHg-bene szars are used by the best builders: turtles ht printing press cylinders, and ff wheels are running all over the world In drilling, even an old man is called into service and doctors prevent faulty lathe work.

t-e street cars and omnibuses? The problem was soon solved, for one fine day a man selling papers appeared near the Madeleine with a peculiar apparatus. He had a stick seven or eight feet long, with wire clamps fastened to it's sides and papers stuck in them. On the top there was a small metal cup with @ hole in the bottom. The hole was a very important part of the apparatus, for it reached all the way down through the stick, and through it came the copper coins of one or two sous according to the price of the paper selected by the patron.

TIE YANKEE ST4TES

One of the cte7erest newspaper enterprises that ever came under sar observation has just been exc sussa by the New Orleans Daily States. A number Of New England newspaper men, represen tatiyes of .ha New England Newspaper League, are making tour of the South. They travel in their own private ear aud have been out twelve weeks. They have iourneyed garough the States of Virginia, North and South Carolina. fennes- sea. Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi and Louisiana. Just now the party is soj9uruing iu New Orleans, and while in the Crescent City the Daily States conceived the den of issuing a Yankee newspaper n the South to be gotten out ertire- Y by the New England newspaper nen the edition to be known as abe @Yankee States, 29Fae 9New Baglauders accepted the invitation If the D4ily States to take charge Of every department (except me ghanieaD for oae day, and .the Yankee States now lies before us. 1t is one of the most unique and sleyer newspapers ever issued in the South. The edition gives the i'm 2ressions of the Yankee visitors gained during their tour. In the Yankee States they discuss fully Southern conditions and opportuui- ases, aud every line is full of good Ria, cheer and encouragement for she South. An editorial on South srn Lynchings" is cue of the most refreshing articles in the entire edi. Sion. The author takes tue attitude shat if New England had as many negroes and as ignorant negroes as 3he South, that negro murderers and rapists would be as unceremo- Riously hung by Judge Lynch in Massachusetts as in Georgia or Mis- sissippi This is only one of tke many splendid articles in the "Yan- kee States, copy of which we wish vas in the hands of every Northern sr and Southerner alike. Another feature that deserves special meL- sion is the greetings of New EDg- land editors to the people of tbe South, sent by wire to the Yankee States. Altogether itis a most happy and creditable edition and will go far toward cementiug the bonds of friendship between the North and the South, It was a happy conception brilliantly exc euted The management of the Daily States deserve credit for their enterprise, and She New Eogland editors have rendered a distinguish ed service to the North and the South alike
