Sir Henry had w lth forethought brought downa supply of wine and liqueurs, partly, no doubt, out of kindness, and partly with due regard for his own comfort. The valet, Mr. Watson, welted upon us with a solemn- ity that almost chilled my veins. He had an eye that scented to be perpetually occupied with estimates and measurements. I ant sure before the dinner was over he had thoroughly satisfied him- self that the carpet had been turned a second time, and eat it had not been orig- inally planned for the room.

But everything went smooth• ly enough, for Sir Houry,somehow or other, gave mo no trouble. Looking back at things now, I should say he was endeavoring to impress me with the idea that he would make a most admir• able and indulgent husband.

I ought at least to have been to Paris, to London in the season, to Cowes during the Regatta week, to Moot, to the Highlands, and to a number of other places, with all of which he was eminently familiar. Feeling bound to somehow stop this flood of conversation, I quietly reminded him that my father's stipend had put an annual Continental tour beyond his reach. In the most airy and graceful manlier possible Sir Henry assured me that money was a stere trifle, that my father's position would soon be most materially improved, that some other clerical preferment was a certainty for him, and that with a wider field histalentsc0uldnot possibly hut assert themselves. "Your father," he went on to say, "Inas hidden himself too much, and has net done his own great abilities justice. But he isstill in the prime of life and fully able to make his mark. And," he went on to add, " I am now speaking to you, dear Miss St. Aubyn, with your father's permission, and indeed at his express wish.

I remember feebly saying that I loved my father dearly, that I'tee aware his abilities hadnever found a pr ar field, and were placed on the table a large box of cigars and a small silver spirit -lamp. I took this as a signal for my departure, and after excltang• ung Glances with my father and returning Sir Henry's bow, aoted upon it. I was not sorry to get away, for Sir Henry, although beat not stare at me, eyed me, as it were, round the corner, and with such persistency as to make me extremely uncomfortable. Mr. Watson with many apologies begged me to permit him to make the coffee himself as he knew exactly how Sir Henry liked it. He performed that task lo a marvel, and returned from the dining room with the welcome intimation. that my father desired me to be told that I r, eed not sit up. This was hut too pleasant news for moonlit I hurried off to bed, Mr. W atson handing memyeandle with the most profound gravity, and asking me If a cigar in the servant's hall would be against the rules of what he called " The Rectory." 1 reassured him on this point, and in a very few minutes was sound asleep. Early next morning I was up and about. The sitting'roo n, where we had banqueted the night before, had t0 be arranged and decorated with fresh flowers. Of these I managed to get together a sufficient allow- ance. Mrs. Jupoins had been very liberal, and se had the rhackers. 1 also scalded a bowl of milli, and made some fresh clotted creast in the most approved Devonshire fashion. The delicate sulphur -tinted primrose was thick on every hedge bank, and I adorned the table with its blossom, and with some violate which grew in a treasured nook of my own. This exhausted my own resources.

The tendency, therefore, naturally is to- ward a continuous fall in prices, and the all has in feet taken place during this nineteenth century, and especially during the last twenty-five years. It is one of the most interesting among such facts (het the smallest fall in price during the last quarter-century has been in articles such as butter, cheese and eggs, which are affected less than most Oom- modities by the opening of new lends and the inven' ion of labor-saving machinery. Yet there are other causes still which work on prices, and which furnish a topic of greatest controversy among poUtieab economists, This year's low price of wheat —the lowest in modern years, anti barely talc what it was in 1850—is yet by no means the lowest in history. Five oenturies ago, the English record tells us, wheat sold atless than one-third of this year', price. In that sale century prioes so curious to us prevailed, as half a penny for beef, twelvepenoe for a " fat lamb," fourpence for a pig, and twopence for a hen. The times when these remarkable prices rated were not tinter of 010108se and suffer- ing, So far as the ruder civilization of the oentury &allowed. they were times of con- tentment aol plenty. All the authorities agree that the reason for such low prices we,, that actual money, for purposes of ex- change, was scare. Hence prices were low. In this century not only has the supply and distribution of coined money vastly in- creased over those of earlier centuries, but the use of bank cheeks has made it possible for the same amount of money to do far more extensive work in trade exchanges. Yet it is curious, even nowadays,to see how unnatural conditions may reproduce, in a different scale, the some changes in money supply and prices, The question how far changes in price during recent years have been due to per- manent changes in the money supply, the coinage and the currency of the world's various nations, is too complicated a subject to discuss here, Marty divergent views of the question are entertained, and political economists of high repute have differed widely. ;Merely to understand the discussion re- quires familiarity svitlt the principles of money and a vast mass of statistics.

If the skim milk in drawn from the bottom of the can, a strip of glees should be soldered' from the bottom up- wards, so that the cream can be seen when it reaches the bottom. Tip the can a little so as to allow all the skim milk to run out without taking any of the cream.. We would suggest having a bottom with three inches slant to carry off all sediment that may be at tine bottom along with the first skim milk. But for general use we would recommend skimming from the top, as there will be 'condiment in the cream. Where the cream has been forced up in 12 hours there will be more inches of creast than If the same milk was allowed to set for 24 hours, but the yield of butter will he about the same per hundred pounds of milk. Where the temperature of the milk cannot be lowered to 45 degrees wo would recommend setting the milk for 24 hours. The per cent of butter -fat in the cream depends on the amount of skim milk in the cream. The depth of cream on the top of the can depends on the per, cent of fat in the milk and the temperature to which the milk has been °soled. There will be more cream or milk containing 4 per cent. butter•fetthen ea milk containing 3 per cent. There will be more on milk cooled to 42 degrees than on the seine milk cooled to 60 degrees. As an educator for dairy farmers we knots of nothing equal to the Babcock milk tester; which is 0hnple and easy to operate, and would strongly recommend ell dairy farmers to have, in some way, their individ- ual cow's milk tested (also the skim milk). as we know there are a large number of unprofitable cows fed and kept whichshould be dt0(33seI of. Etch cow should give at least 0,00010. milk, which should make about 250 lb. butter per year. The skim mil's should be tested that the farmer may know whether he is getting all the cream out of the milk. We have frequently tested skim milk from farmers showing from 1 to over 1} per Dent. of bniter•fat,wlicil means a loss of about 26 per cent. of all thebutter- fat in the milk, or in other words a loss of from 20 to 23 Dents per hundred pounds of milk. No expensive creamer is necessary to gat all the oream out of the milk, so long as you oan maintain the proper temperature, as it is the temperature of the water about the milk which does the work and not the creamer into which the Dans or pails of milk are placed. Any ordinary box or barrel which is clean and will kohl water, will do the work as efftoiently as the most expen- sive creamer made. Where shallow pan cream is taken to a creamery the milk should be set in a clean cool room at a temperature of 60 degrees and lower, for 24 hours, but no longer, as all the cream will be top in that time and of a better quality than if allowed to remain longer, as the cream being exposed to the air in warm weather becomes thick and tough and will not run through the strainer at the oroamery, which means a loss 10 the other patrons who supply good cream should he rejected, as it is better to loose one patron than ruin the reputation of the creamery, as it is dffiioult to make good flavored butterfromahallow pat oream because there are very few milk theme throughout the oountry which are fit to eel milk in, Good flavor is the most important point about butter. Buyers look for flavor first If the flavor is bad, down goes the price. We would re- commend for creameries that all milk should be submerged in the water to protect it h•om any foul odors that may be about the dairy. (Some of 0111 best CTeat000150 refuse to take shallow pan cream at ail. This, u0 doubt is the mast plan.) Where cold water or ice cannot be got we would reeonutend for a herd of from 15 to 20 cows a cream separator. These op- erators tonally leave about one-tenth of one per cent, of butter•fat in the skint mile, while milk from the deep setting when cooled to only 60 degrees usuallyhae about one per cent. Bnt if the some milk had been cooled to 42 degrees or 45 degrees the loss of fat would be but from one to three -tenths of One per cent. J.
