If it were not Iloiiaml, you might think something dreadful wa bup ieiiiug, aud Indeed there I, for the aklp x r who goe to the market town with bis trckxchlnt every day I being baningued and scolded because he had aome thought of Hxdlliig the Ice by pulling hi boat through. "Itlacloaed. lt It stay cloaed," they cry, and be kI vea In, whether to publio opinion or bia own desire w ho shall any? Ami ao it freezea steadily for a Week, quietly aud smilingly, without wind, the one and ouly enemy to skating iu Hol land. Several boy, in the meantime, too venturesome, have been lugged out of the canal aud licked and culled for selling the Ice. Aud then one morning it i fro r.en aolltl, and all the Hollander are hap py. Iu the summer, for the ptasant, it tin been nothing but grind, with the excep tion of a few day' kirmcHx, which leaven an aching head and empty pocket. Now there la pleasure without myiug. You may go to the uttermost part of the earth or Holland, which la the same to them, for nothing, and ao there are happy Junketing on the Ice, distant friend nud relative to be vlxlted elxe never aeeu and engagement to lw kept which were made the whiter before. The whole country I a network of ca nal, and they serve three purpose no, four aa mean of communication, one canal lending Into another; aa drain to keep the hind dry and habitable; In place of walk or fencea or hedges, aud, the fourth purpose, tn skate upon. Herein lie the fascination of skating lu Holland you can go somewhere, any where, everywhere. And incredible la the speed and endurance of the Dutch on skates although iKxioghue did bent them. Donnghue, like Uhmiia, I a genius all Dutchmen cannot w in the diamond sculls but I doubt if in long distance ' any American can outspeed the Hullaud : er. We skate better that I to say, we ' do thing on our skates a Dutchman would never dream of doing, but for long dia tatirea the Dutch would outlast ua. Near the village it i like a scene from a comic opera, tiirl and boy, men aud women, all guy nnd boisterous, all iu a mare of delightful color gold aud silver, I lac covered bead dresses surmounted, aln. too often by hideous modem bonnet bright skirt, gnudy apron and colored clonk among the women. The men more somlxr, but uone the leas picturesque. Moat of the men are iu slipper. If you are new to the sight, you w ill look with amazement red velvet and .black, em hmidf rica and carpet cut slipper slipper everywhere. You wonder if they are go ing to skate iu this footgear. Watch them and you will see that they are. You will see them blud on, some w ith stru aud aome with st ring, skate so long and low that they must have descended from the Finnish snow. ISkutca and all so loose you wonder how they can skate on them. They are on their feet now, trying them, and a yon watch you :ee the real Dutch roll. Near by a lot of young people are wran gling over a long pole, like n hnrher'a pole nud na gnyly painted, with a knob on one etui of it. They are trying to decide which la the strongest. They are nil the strong est, apparently, but finally the owner of the nde ia elected leader. He take the polo under hi right arm, hi left hand llrmly grasping the knob. Ilclilnd him 10 or IS people men and women are ranged, all grasping the pole In the same maimer, with a strong mau in 1'ie middle nud an other on the end. The end man give the signal, "Heady, away!" And away It is, with one great curve to the right from one side of the canal to the other. Then for a little while you hear the leadcr'e"rccbta, link!" and watch the line of swaying budlcs gliding farther and farther down the canal uutil It Ix-coinc merely a gray wriggle. A we have said, the only enemy to skating In Holland i the wind, which al most nlwaya blow. Going with the wind la of courscdfllghtfiil, but it Is the return ing iu the teeth of it that ia unpleasant. Ill in aknting against the wind that the long pole are, especially useful. The leader of course takes the wind aud bear the buffet, while those ladilnd get little or uone, aud the combined Impetua sends them ou almost without effort. H would not do to tell the speed the Dutch say they attain with these poles, but It la very great. If you take a long trip with a lot of good skater, you will find, moreover, a delight iu tbta niauner of akating which no other cnu give, but you will need great power of endurance. There la no falling out of line, and you will have learned at the end of the day that It la lxst when you are lu Holland to do na the Hollander do and wear Dutch skat.w. Your own you will find, aa they say, heavy. The chiefest objection to Dutch akatea ia not that they arctx long, but they are too low, for unless the Ice ia very dry they collect the shaving, and the fwt get wet and cold. Many foreigner come to Holland in the winter to skate. The fact that there la very little anow and ao muck Ice make It a paradtae for skater, and the abandon nud gayetyof the winter season add to the pleasure. Cor. Louisville Courier Jour ual.

A curious custom prevails among the street peddler and small storekeepers of New York that ha It origin with the ItiiHsian Hebrews. Iu Ilaxter street the clothing men and iu Divisiou street the milliners insist that a stile Enlist be made before U o'clock ou Monday morning. No matter what the price and regardless of prollt or loss, some piece of good has to be, turned luto coin by that hour. Other wise the week will prove an unlucky one. This explains why shrewd coreligionist hung around these places on the fateful morn. They may have bad their eye on a pair of trousers, n coat or n Is nnet for weeks, nnd they patiently await thechnnce to secure the coveted article at their own figure. If they see that no business baa la-en done with uninitiated patrons, they Jump inside a few moments before 9 and tlx the price ou what they want to suit themselves, I learned of this superstition through a match peddler. He entered the burlsr shop where I was being shaved lust Monday forenoon ot about 8:30. He offered the proprietor n package of a dozen boxes for It) cents. "Xo," was the reply. "I'll give you a nickel." The fellow pleaded until the hand of the clock pointed to 3 minutes of 9. Then he took the 5 cent piece aud departed, while the barber ex plained. Later I met the peddler on the street and asked, "How much for match es?" "Fifteen cents a pHckage," be re plied. "Will you sell me two packages for a qtiHrter?" "Xo, sir," was the nuswer. He had made hi first wile, and after thnt cut price "didn't go." Xew York Her ald. Alchemist's Alloy.
