nrc generally a)Miutel at Sn.oti pcits-iut
chriMenini.'s nnd It is iti.-tomnrv that ono
couple bliould bo old and the other young;
but iti no case should a husband irml rifo
figure ns god patents at tho sminc baptism,
but cacli one of the quartet must belong
to u dltrerent family. This is the general
custom, but in some districts the rule de
mands two godfathers and one godmother
for a lioy, two godmothers and one god
father for a girl.
If tho parents have lost other children
before, then the infant should not be car
ried out by the door in going to church,
but handed out by the window and brought
back in the same way. It should be car
ried by the broadest street, never by nar
row lanes, else it will learn thieing.
The godparents must not look round on
their way to church, and tho llrst person
met by the christening procession will
decide the sex of the next child to be
born a boy if It lie a man.
If two children are baptized out of the
Fame water one of them will soon die, and
If sever-il boys are christened successively
in the same church there will be war in
the land as soon as they are grown tip.
Many girls denote fruitful vintages for
the country when they have attalued a
marriageable age.
If the child sleeps during the baptismal
ceremony, then it will be pious and good
tempered, but if it cries it will be bad tern
pcred or unlucky; therefore the Urst ques
tion asked by the parents on the return
lrom church is generally, "Was it a quiet
baptism" and if such has not been tho
cae the sponsors are apt to conceal the
truth.
In sotno places the christening proces
sion returning to the house of the parents
find the door closed. After knocking for
some time in vain a voice from within
summons the godfather to namo seven
bald men out of the parish. When this has
been answered a further question is asked
ns to the gospel read in the church; and
only ou receiving the answer, "Let the
littles children come to me," is tho door

How 11 lYuthcr Grown.
In the skin of a fowl, where a leather Is
to appear, there is to be seen a little pit,
and at the bottom of this rises a tiny
mound or pyramid. Around this pyramid
certain little grooves extend deeper at tho
base, seeming to radiate from ono largo
groove at one side, all growing shallower,
and Dually disappearing at the top. This
wholo pyramid is covered with a skin
composed of the same series, or flattened
cells, as thoe which cover the wholo body.
In the ordinary process of growth tho
new formations on the surface of the body
throw oir as ell'ete matter the older jtor
tions of the skin, but here they are re
tained, and become so closely united to
each other as to forma sort of honey coat,
more or less strong according to its age,
over tho surface of the pyramid. As new
cells grow at the base they push tip this
little horny protuberance till it breaks at
its ti'lunest point, which is opposite tho
large gintive. Then, us new growths still
push it. 01. v. aril and llattcn it, it assumes
tho form of a feather, the ridge in tho
main furrow or groove being tho shaft,
while the side grooves form the separato
barbs of the vein.
When all this web of tho feather is
formed the pyramid loses Its grooves and
becomes smooth. All parts are of equal
thickness, and so hard as to break easily,
but remain tubular and form the quill,
which is attached to what remains to tho
pyramid. The linger nails, and even
single hairs, are developed and formed In
the same way, and everyone who has In
jured a nail and lost it knows how long a
process, some three or four months, is re
quired to produce the missing llnish to
bis digit. Poultry Mascot.

I bad occasion to drive in the vicinity of
Grant's tomb a few days since, and was
attracted as I drew near it to tho horso
play and extraordinary antics of some
young men and women standing at the
open portals of the vault. I left my car
riage and walked the little distance from
the driveway to tho tomb, and just as I
reached it one of the boys, looking in,
imitated the shrill, loud too-whit too-hoo
of the owl, and as the echo rolled about
the iron box in which the embalmed and
enameled clay rests the crowd laughed
and repeated it. There in full public gaze,
tho wind blowing tho reckless dust and
scattering leaves in upon it, stands the
iron box. So far as it is concerned it might
ns well stand in tho City Hall park or in
tho midst of Broadway's tumultuous
human tide. Hespect for tho dead, regret
for tho dust, uH'ectfou for tho ono father,
husband, friend, general, president, where
is the faintest semblance of either ono or
the other? A few potted plants, several
withered leaves, a park policeman and a
gaping, curious, laughing crowd. That's
all.
Is there no sanctity about our dead?
Is there no tender memory associated
witli this man's activities? Is thero no

Inspired unities on tho one hand and made

that a jubilee fund bus been proposed for
her and that money to tho amount of
$5,000 per day is coming into that fund.
Then, too, sho sells butter mado from her

cumstances wo can all see how generous
was tho impulso which prompted her to
raise the pension of tho old, nnaless and
legless soldier to the extent of Ss. 5Jd. per

growing a littlo tired of this business of
royalty; that on two or three occasions of

Iceland" Ancient Lore Ittcoril an expe
dition Which Took rtiu-o In 080 i:xie
rlcncea Which l.eml to the llelli'f That
Ami'rir-.i Wni tho Place VNIteil.
The ancient lore of tho Icelandic sagas
furnishes proof of the early colonization
of the American continent in tho Tenth
century by tiio Scandinavians, Tho sagas
and songs ttHin which ancient Scandi
navian iiistorv is founded, and thosecon
tabling the history of America by the
Northmen, were originally intrusted to
the memory, and these verbal traditions
formed historical narratives.
In the early part of tho Twelfth cen
tury, when tho Icelanders had become
familiar with the Lilin chirogmphy,
they were committed to writing. Manu
scripts found in Iceland during tho year
1050 make record of an expedition to
Greenland led in DS0 by Krio Kod, of Ice
land. His son Lief, who accompanied
him, enlisted a crew of thirty-five men,
and set sail from Greenland on another
voyage of exploration, hi duo time they
came to a well wooded land to the soutli
west of Greenland, where day and night
seemed more equal than in Greenland
and Iceland.
GIVING Tlin LAND A NAME.
After a short sojourn in this newlv
found country. Lief, in company with
his followers, returned to Greenland,
and the fame acquired by this expedition
encouraged his brother Thorwalu to em
bark in the same vessel in 1002 for the
recently discovered territory, to which
was given the name of Wineland (Vine
land). Tliorwald and his crew, having
safely reached their destination, spent
the winter in the booths which Lief had
erected. In the spring ho explored the
western coast and found tho land not
only attractive, hut rich in vines and
forest.
No evidences of human habitation wore
visible, nor did he lind the lairs of ani
mals. Afterwards sailing eastward thev
came to a cape upon whose sandy beacli
they landed. Having crossed tins pro
jection, to their surprise they saw three
boats made of skins, partially buried in
the sand, beneath which nine men lay
hidden, eight of whom were caught and
killed, one managing to escape, letter
these Northmen were attacked by the
Esquimaux, to whom the eight so re
cently killed probably belonged. Tlior
wald. fatally wounded in the encounter,
was buried on the promontory where ho
fell. His crew returned to "Greenland
with a rich cargo of timber.
TUP. SIX'ONU nXPKUlTION.
Tho sagas make mention of another
expedition, undertaken by Thorfin Karls
fuo. who enlisted as his associates sixty
men and live women. Sailing from Ice
land in :i southerly direction, they ar
rived at tho place where Lief had built
his huts. After landing the cows and a
bull to graze, which they had brought
with them. Karlsfue ordered bis men to
fell trees and prepare timber for the
ship's cargo: and while thus engaged
they saw emerging from the woods many
Skraelings. Happening toappear where
the bull was feeding, and being rather
of a ferocious spirit, lie bellowed loudly,
and made an attack upon them, which
led them immediately to retreat.
After securing re-en forcements they
returned, and although they wero not
able to make themselves understood to;
tho Northmen, by means of signs, how
ever, they were enabled to barter furs
for such other commodities ns the North
men were willing to sell. When tho'na
tives had withdrawn, Karlsfuo caused
a strong wooden fence to bo placed
around his booths, which proved to bo a
wise precaution, as a short time after
wards the Skraelings returned, when ii
fierce light ensued, in which many of the
Esquimaux f ell. The Northmen soon be
coming weary of their abode in so strange
a country, and exposed to tho frequent
attacks of the natives, in tho spring re
turned to (ireenland.
Till: TIIEOKY OK IUISII COLONISTS.
The third expedition was undertaken
in 1011 bv Frovdissa, a daughter of Eric
Ked, in company with 200 Icelandic
traders, but as no further exploration of
tins country was entered upon no new
facts were obtained.
The theory of the population of Amer
ica by Irish colonists has been founded
on the mention of a saga writer who
observes that Wineland must havo been
"I'Tvittraninnnaland," or llio Great ire
land, it is not improbable that a similarity
in tho sound of the language of tho peoplo
caused tho name of a smaller body of
land in the eastern heniisphero to bo
given to u part of tho country by its first
discoverers. Be this as it may it is- cer
tain that the theory has never been au
thenticated. Thus we became acquainted with the
Icelandic history of certain portions of
tho western hemisphere, as given by tho
sagas of the Icelanders.
The discovery by Christopher Colum
bus of West Indies in HD'2 was perhaps
tho result o(' u trip made by him to Ice
land in 1477. at which time thediscovery
of unknown lands to tho southwest o'f
Greenland and Iceland was tnado known
to him by the sagas of the peoplo of Ice
land. Gen. C. W, Darling in Homo

Concern I ns Hydrophobia.
Our knowledge concerning tho condi
tions under which tho oisoii which
creates hydrophobia nets has been some
what advanced by tho recent experi
ments of .M. Gultier. of Paris. According
to tho experiments the dried virus has
its poisonous properties destroyed in from
four to six days. On tho other hand,
earlier experiments of tho same savant
show that nn animal which has died of
rabies may retain the poison in that part
of the brain called the medulla oblongata
for six or seven weeks. It is evident
that this fact may lx of importance in
cases where persons have been bitten by
animals supposed to be rabid. If tho body
of the creature has been buried it may be
possible to exhume it after many clays
and make exiierimcuts which will serve
to show whether danger from tho wound
is to bo uppreliended. In this way un
founded anxieties may bo allayed. Pop

An 1 1 Uli Dinner In IT47.
Dinner was generally served at 4 p. m.
It wasabundant to profusion. The wines
were excellent, U'ing the choicest pro
duce of I'reiich and Spanish vineyards,
whose quality was remarked by almost
all visitors to In land, and the flotations
were, as at the same period in England,
long and deep. Costly silver, handsome
glass and china, ajul the linest linen ap
peared in nil the iK'tter class houses. A
characteristic feature was the "potato
ring." This was of silver, richly chased,
and was used to support the great bowl
in which potatoes were then brought
to table. The sequence of courses (lif
fered widely from that now general.
Soups eai'ie in the third or fourth place;
fish, llesh and sweets jostled each other:
while H)tted meats and cold pasties were
uot unfrcqticnt items on the bill of fare.
For more accurate knowledge of what
our ancestors uto at their principal meal
wo are indebted to a chronicler of tho
time. In 1717 she sends tho following
menu of a dinner to her sister: the quaint
sjielling is retained: "First course Fish,
beefsteaks, rabbit and onions, lillet of
veal, blamnnge. cherries. Dutch cheese.
Second course Turkey, pout poult?,
salmon, pickled salmon, grildo grilse?
and qtinills, little terrene peas, cream,
mushrooms terrene, apple pye, crabs,
leveret, cheesecakes, almond cream, cur
rants and gooseberries, ornugo butter.
Dessert Raspberries and cream, sweet
meats and jelly, strawberries and cream."

possible. The invitation was to 'beef
steaks.' which we aro famous for."

Hashes ol wit winch draw forth roars of
laughter anil applause aro sometimes un
premeditated, but probably they aro
more frequently thought out and re
hearsed in advance. Impromptu or not,
wo all like a witty speech and a witty
toast. Chambers' Journal hits collected
6omo witty and amusing toasts given at
banquets, and, in reading them, one can
only sigh, "Would I had been there!"
A rather cynical toast ran thus: "Wo
man sho requires no eulogy: sho speaks
for herself."
A gallant young man, under tho same
festal circumstances, referred to ono
member of the sex he eulogized as "a
delectable dear, so sweet that honey
would blush in her presence, and treacle
stand appalled."
At the marriage supper of a deaf and
dumb couple, one guest, in tho speech
of tho evening, wished them "unspeak
able bliss."
A writer ot comedies was given a
Danquct in honor of his latest work, nt
which a jovial guest gave the toast:
"Tho author's very good health! May
ho live to be as old as Ids jokes."
At another gathering wero toasted,
"The bench and the bar: If it wero not
for the bar, there would be littlo use for
the bench."
As pithy was the following toast, pro
posed at a shoemaker's dinner: "May
wo have all the women in tho country to
shoe, and ull the men to boot."
Literary IVi-noiis mid Ailxc rtiscinciits.
I think that the average literary man

that a publication that interests me has
