A FOX FARMS.

Consul John H. Sherley writes from Charlotte
town. Prince Edward Island: There are three
black fox farms near Anterior where these an
imals are raised for their skins. These farms
contain 20, Is and 80 foxes, respectively. The
skins are sold in London at prices ranging from
$500 to $1,000 each, according to quality. l am
informed that the fur is used for ornamenting
the cloaks Of royalty, as it is the only fur to
which gold will cling. The farm containing 30
foxes is on Cherry's island. The farm containing
20 foxes is in a rough, broken woods country,
where the animals are confined by heavy woven
wire netting. The wire is set in the ground two
and three feet. in order to keep the foxes from
burrowing under, and is about eight feet high
above ground. with a curve inwardly at the top
of each post of another three or four feet of wire,
in order to keep them from climbing over the
fence. They sleep in the open the year round.
in hollow trees and in hollow logs. These ami.
mails are not cross-bred, but are confined to their
own kind, to keep the fur OF the best quality DOS
sible.

HumorousIY Morded Rebuke.

Theodore P. Roberts had a fluent
command of language, both in speak
ing and writing, and was well liked
by everybody. He could secure the
attention of a negligent publisher it
need be. To one such, who was re-
miss about sending vouchers, he once
closed up a long letter with the SEN
tence: "And, finally, my dear sir,
permit me to say that it would be
easier for a camel to ride into the
kingdom of heaven on a velocipede
than for anyone to find a late copy of
your paper in the city of New York"

NOT A MIRACLE.
Just Plain Cause and Effect.

There are some quite remarkable
things happening every day, which
seem almost miraculous.
Some persons would not believe that
a man could suffer from coffee drink
ing so severely as to cause spells of
Inconsistencies. And to find complete
relief in changing from coffee to Pos
tum is well worth recording.
81 used to be a great coffee drinker,
SO much so that it was killing me by
inches. My heart became so weak I
would fall and lie unconscious for an
hour at a time. The spells caught
me sometimes two or three times a
day.
my friends, and even the doctor,
told me it was drinking coffee that
caused the trouble. 1 would not be-
lieve it. and still drank coffee until I
could not leave my room.
Then my doctor, who drinkss Pos
tum himself, persuaded me to stop cot
fee and try Postum. After much hest
tation I concluded to try it. That was
eight months ago. Since then l have
had but few Of those spells, none for
more than four months.
II feel better, sleep better and am
better every way. I now drink moth
ing but Postum and touch no coffee,
and as ! am seventy years of age all
my friends think the improvement
quite remarkable

Congratulations Wanted.

On entering his club one evening
not long ago a young Philadelphia
was accosted by a friend, who ex-
claimed:
why, Charley, you are positively
beaming! What's up?"
I'm in the greatest luck imagin-
able" responded the other. You
know, I've been hanging about a pretty
Yonkers girl for almost a year. Dur
ing all this time she would never adj
nit that she loved me; she would only
say that she respected me. But now,
old chap, congratulate me, for last
night she confessed hat she respected
me no longer-that she loved MEL

Bridqet's Beatitudes,

Blessed is the soda used freely in
dish washing. For greasy pots and
pans it is invaluable: sprinkle a tea
spoonful in water and let boil for a
few minutes.
Blessed is the thorough beating Civ.
en- to batter for cakes, mullins. etc.
Truly, spare the rod and spoil the
cake"
Blessed is the salt eaten with nuts
to aid digestion.
Blessed is the horse-radish (about
half a teaspoonful), put in the pan OF
milk to keep it sweet.
Blessed is the finger of an old kid
glove put over the rod on which to
hang lace curtains; It saves the mate
rial from getting torn.

Cldlly III Ii upper GLASS;
eS, never accepts anything beyond iewelry. Her
parents are expected to buy her trousseau. furni-
ture for the house, and her spinning wheel. The
day of the wedding these things are exhibited, but
at the bridegroom's house.
Though in Switzerland no tchmakin is done,
a young man must often prove to the girl he is
worthy of asking for her hand. The girls always
have the privilege of saying Yes or mo" though
in some places the choice of a bridegroom is re-
stricted to their own locality. In some districts
a man must lead the goats up and down the noun
tain to show the girl he can work for her. In other
towns where the haying is done it is his part to
stack up all the hay and pile it into the barn.
Though she helps him in his long hours of toll, he
is expected to do most of the work. Still he tolls
on bravely, feeling that he is being rewarded sufi-
GENTLY by a pleasant word, a friendly smile, and
that if the work is well done he has a chance to win
her as his wife.
Until recently in Egypt girls and boys were mar
ried when they were young. 1t was common for a
girl to be married by the time she was IA and a boy
when 16. But they now wait a few years longer.
The parents always select the man they wish for
the sonin-law. The girl is satisfied to know that
she is going to have new dresses and a great deal
OF new pretty jewelry. The bride and bridegroom
rarely see each other before the day of the wedding.
An important part of the ceremony is to give a
bride food and d large urn, which symbolic that
she will have food and water.
There are no people so particular about selecting
nuSDandS ana wives Tor their children as the MOOrS.
Their sons and daughters have no right to say
who they will and will not marry. For after the
parents have chosen, a word of complaint might re-
suit in death. A son dare never take a wife unless
his mother approves, and she is usually chosen
from the young women Of their own clan. But
when they cannot find a girl in the village who
pleases them they seek one among other clans.
But the young man is supposed to be too timid to
court alone the girl whom his mother chooses, and
so he usually takes several friends with him. 1t is
their duty to sing the girls praises In the hope of
giving him courage to carry on the courtship.
But the formal engagement must take place in
the presence of the head man. 1t is before him that
the young man hands over the sum he has agreed
to give the girls father. This varies according to
what he can afford, the beauty Of the bride, and
their social position. The bride usually buys the
trousseau with the money the young man gives
her father.
Moorish girls are exceedingly fond Of pretty
clothes and plenty of handsome jewelry, so their
trousseaux are often wonderfully elaborate. On
her wedding day a professional woman from the
town is employed to dress the bride. She paints
her face, combs out her hair and arranges the
jewels. Not much before sunset does the bride
groom send the, box in which the bride is to be con-

SIaW with Bacon.

This is a good way to cook the ever
welcome cabbage:
Chop fine n small cabbage and
two small onions. Add a cup of sugar
and seasoning to taste. Then fry some
bits Of bacon quite brown, and add a
cup of mild vinegar Oess, if the vine
gar is strong). When it boils pour over
the cabbage and let it soak some time.

half cups white cornmeal. Add three
tablespoons sugar, two Of melted but

cups of flour and two tablespoons ba-

cook in waffle irons. The %southerners
do not like the yellow cornmeal.

The parents settle this
affair often without con-
sulting the young man and
the girl. The man usually
is given more leeway, and
if he does not admire the
girl the parents usually
hunt another girl for him.
