Curious Marriage Customs, _A. curious old custom still exiete in rnahy provinces in Holland. if a young man Lein !eve with a girl, and wishes to Desk her hehad in marriage,he goea about it in the folloWing manner: He buys a small sweet cake, and, wrapping it up in soft paper, preceeds to the house of his inamorata; upon his arrival he is ushered into the miclet of the family circle; withont a word he walks up to the young lady he wishes to make his wife, and lags the cake on the table before her. The rest of the family affect not to notice any- thing unusual, and centilitre their work ,et their reading; tilt young marl turns &side and talks to the father or mother on soMe trdinary subject, kigpine hie eyes eagelly fixed on the girl's face white he is convees- ing. If she accepts his Offer she takes hp_ -the cake and eats it. Sometimes, dredge. Dutch, she is c«ittettish, and ttrtures the young than by turning it over and pleyilig with it before she decides to bite, and then enraptures him by eating it to the lett crumb. If, oe the ether hand, she wishes to have nothing more to do with her admirer,' she quickly reWrurpa the cake in its covering and puts it back or' the table. In this case the young men takes uit tile cake satisfied with his refuse], aud with e " Vaarvoel bys- umen !" leaves the house. The matter is then kept a profound secret by the members of both families, and the outer world never hears of it. If on the other hand, the affair .,progress favorably, and the auitortis except- ed, the father tekes him on one slide to mei itheut his business prospects, and if lie can afford to take his wifelor a weddingjourney up the Rhine, the ideal wedding, trip of all Dutchmen. After the youne couple become euga,ged, uulike most Contineutel nations, they have the same freedom tier in Englenct under similar circumstances, end they are at liberty to breek off the engagement for geed reasons. Fall Care of Cows. Too teeny dairymen talk about " puttieg tneir cowe upou their winter feed." The good dairyman does not know when antrum eachi and winter begiue. tVith him there is !Hi sudden change from wet to dry, or cold to warmth : andethe man who sec i that the simmer dairy is as well cared for as the winter one, andethe reverse, will be the one etheihas succeeded in keeping his COINS giv- ing milk until near calviug time. In our dairy, judicious feeding and care doubly pay me by furnishing milkeven in the mid-sum- inentse that the milk -can makes its trip's -to the creamery every day in the, year, when, by the old plan of dairying, the cows tested from milk -giving at !east 18 weeks, and that t the time of their greatest coat, neenely, winter months. Few dairymen begin to stable their cows early enough in the fail. To them it seems a lois not to have ceites in the pasture night and day until the ground aetuelly frozen, the idea being that this irceted feed will be lost if not eaten. The fact is ignored that rhilk, if secured hi pro- fitable quantities, is a result of warmth and couifort, and no cow on frosted feed, delug- ed by the cold and penetretink tains of harem/in and chilled by- frosts, can Maintain the flow of milk that she would if kept in the &Wale at night and on stormy days. Teaching a cow to endure cold weather, and expecting beret -redo well in milk yield, has not paid since the advent of winter daitying. - The winter dairymen have found that the nearer they make the fall and winter Months like Juno, the better the results. In general practice I find, that as eciou as the ehilly nights eet in in October, it pays to keep the cows in and feed them in the stablefor a cow, by preference, never likes a wet and a culd bed, and by the same reasoning is xtever found on the windy sidc of a fence, but hunts a sheltered nook if one is to be feted. Let us take a hint from the cow herself, and as soon us the -fire is needed in the house, put this mother cow, that ie her milk -giving is more susceptible to cold than the "dry" one, into the warm stable and geeerousiy feed her, and defer the toughen- •••., leg period until warmer weather in the spring, and by'this more generous a,nel hu- mane treatment seonre many more gallons of better milk, and place ourselves among the more progressive -dairymen of the country. tJohn Gould in Q. J. Farmer. • <The Sillier Conference. Early in the present year the President determined to issue invitations to the several European nations to a conference on the sil- ver coinage question. Each nation was a,ek- ed to appoint delegates who might diecues the problem of an international agreement oniailver coinage, and, if possible, arrange mdesures for that purpose which might be recommended to their several governm ts. •;The idea of sucl- an international ee- ment is not new. Among ecoitomic welters and public ' men there are three distinct opinions held regarding the free coinagb of eilver. The "gold monoinetalists" believe that gold alone should be accepted without limit for coinage at the mints, and that silver should be used only for &restricted and sub- sidiary currency. The "free coinage" men believe that silver offered at the mints should be coined as freely as gold into legal tender currency. The "international birnetalists" hold mid- dle ground, and a.rgue that free coinage of silver should be authorized only when all or most of the leading financial nations shall have agreed to adopt the same policy. If, they argue, silver can be made legal tender at a uniform ratio to gold, the world over, none of the disasters threatening a etate which is alone in the policy of free silver coinage will follow. The radical free coinage •men hold that one nation alone may safely ,adopt free silver, but they naturally have no -objection to a concerted decision by all the leading nations. , After long delay and negotiation, the ar• rangements for the silver conference have been made. It is to meet on November 22od, at Brussels where one of the previ- ous international silver conferences was held. Sixtee,n European governments have consented to tend delegates, including all the nations of any financial importance. The consent to attend is sometimes con- strued as evidence of willingness ' to adopt practical measures, but it is not safe to draw this conclusion 'The leading governments which have appointed delegates, especiaily Great Britain, have distinctly instructed their representatives not to commit their governments in any perticular. Not even the United States delegates could agree' to any policy without the consent of Con- gress. Moreover, thetwo international ceder- ences already held, in 1878 and 1882, result- ed in nothing but tong discussion and con- flict of opinion. Neither of them accom- plialied anything definite.' Besides, although the monetary troubles in India, where silver is the only money, have led some te •suppose that Great Bri- tain would be glad to resell some interna- tional agreement, the comments of the Eng- lish newspapers and financial authorities have been almoet Ntiholly adverse. Never- theless, it • is true that many American students of the situation hope for an under- standing, evenif Great Briteih has to he left out. • The delegates appointed by the President are rive in number,•and all are believed to be in favor of free Silver, either independ- ently or by international agreement. - a Sea r. tor JODES, of Nevada, one the delegates, has favored all the recent free -silver bills. Mr. McCreary, of Kentueky, another mem- ber of the delegation, has supported such tureasures steadily in the House of Represen- tatives, Senator Allison, of Iowa, is more donserv- ative in his views, but favors the uee cf silver together with gold. Mr. Cannon is the president of a New York bank. Gener- el Walker, President of the Massachusetts Institute of Technolsgy, having declined an appointment, President Andrews, of Brown Univertity, was delegated in his etea,d. In politics three of the delegates are Re- publicans and two are Democrats. A notable fact in England's delegation is the appointment of Mr. Houldsworth, a pro- fessed bimebalist.—Youth's Companion. Novel Use for Ammonia.Yeses ego, evhen I was a youngster, I be- came an assistent of Doctor Blank, the sup- erintendent of a 'public, ineetne asylum. As in all ineaue asylame, some of the patients were docile anclftractable, and had the free- dom of the high -welled garden, while others being violent and dangerous in their mad- ness, were confined. to their rooms. Some- times oee of the last-named gentlemen would get loose, a fact he usually announced by breaking things generally, upon which announcement the • doctor would repair to the spot, and adi ancing hpon him with steadfast gaze; would march him off to his totem.

When the carpenter looked around the madman grinned and poked the chisel at him, whereupon the man of chip t scuttled out and locked the door. Tben, while the enemy was battering nehicy et it, he rushed around and locked the dear at the other end, Having thus caged Jones, he geve the elerm, and 1, supposing it Ives an ordinary cane which I could control, unlocked the door and oetered boldly, whereupon he made a rush et me. 1 incouttnently belted, e, The doctor, wax sent for.

To capture him by force was a difficult and dangerous undertaking, and to starve him wotild be a tedious affair, But the doctor did not hesitate long. "Alfred," said he, "go down into the sur- gery, fill the lergest syringe with hartshorn and bring it up." I ceng'nt the idea., rushed down and brought back a quart syringe with hartehorn diluted, for I did not want to kill the man. Then the doctcr, the cerpcuter and myself formed an artily of invasion. We threw open the door and entered in the following array : 1, being the shortest of the three, marched first, holding a, chair in front of me by the back, no that the legs might keep all a rush if our popgun should flash in the pan. Then came the carpenter, with the syringe. resting on my shoulder, like a piece of fly- ing artillery: Finally, in the rear, in the safest place, like a good general, came Doc- tor Blank. The lunatic sat at the other end of the halls on a chair, eyeing us keenly and sav- agely. Slowly, very slowly, we advanced toward him. The nearer we got the more wicked that chisel looked, and the handle seemed to increase until it was very, very long. When we were within a few feet of him he jumped up and sprang toward me. Whiz! spatter ! plash!swent the quart of hartshorn into hie countenance; down he went like a log—it would have knocked down a battalion—and while he was ' catch- ing his breath we caught him.

The dessert was being served and the stetely colored waiters were passing pretty, little, pink - frosted cakes, to be eaten with the iced creams. A plate of them was held before the young lady, who looked them over and said : "1 don't care for any.", The waiter was moving away, when she saw, as she thought, an eclair on the farther side of the plate. She was fond ofechoco- late. - " Yes, I will too," she said, reaching over for the eclair, there is one with chocolate on it."

"Never mind that," exalaimedthe lady, "there is no great harm done, and you feel worse about it than I do." "But your dress is ruined: i thought you would be angry with me for being careless." "Ob, no," she replied, " better to have a soiled dress than a ruflied temper." "Oh, what a beauty !" exclaimed.the lad; as the lady passed on. "Who's that lady ?" returned his com- rade.
