An unique style of entertainment is a. Japenese tea. party. The walls are almost covered with Japanese draperies, screens, fans, scrolls, and there is an octagonal cano- )y in the centre of the room. Girls and hoys arrayed in Japanese costumes are the waiters and serve refreshments on Japanese trays, with J apa‘nese cups and saucers. The .same idea. may be prettily carried out in a. fair. For a princess thewife of the Crown Prince of Austria is exceptionally well educated, 3 00d linguist, musmian and equestrienne,with artistic sensibllities, and good, sound judg- ment. “ Nothing is so great an instance of illqnan- ners as flattery. If you flatter all the com- pany you please none; if you flatter only one“er two you affront the rest.” But an elegant compliment, spoken with an air of frankness, carries with it an irresistible iiharm. Chateaubriand, when an old man, met Rachel, the tragedienne, then in the firstiflush of her fame. “What a pity,” he csiclaimed, “to be obliged to die, when so nni'eh genius is making its way in the \VOl’IL .” “In some cases it may be so,” said Rachel, “but you know, sir, there are some who pos- sess the privileges of immortality.” That was a graceful turn of Sidney Smith’s, when the young lady asked him if he Would not bring a certain pea. to perfection. “ No,” he said, “but,” and he took her by the hand, “I can bring perfection to the pea.” - “Matildy,” said Mrs. McSpiIkins-to her new help, “who was that black loafer I saw in the kitchen last night eating, supper? I thonght you told me you novel“ had any friends comin to see you '3” “I don’t know muffin amut that niggah, I reckons de uddah cookleft him dare when she went away. ” It is quite the thing to display 01d laces, old shawls, and even old dresses, in private parlors. A New York lady has an album in which she has pasted bits of her grandmoth- er’s dresses, rich brocades, etc. , that she produces to entertain her audiencesâ€"those who haven’t a grandmother sit there and e11- vy her. ‘ Aâ€"râ€"«N 40> ne>-â€"' Compliments. Do not pay compliments unless you can do so with grace and in such a manner that, though the person on whom the Sweet flat- tery is bestowed recognize it as undeserved, he or she may still believe that on your part it is perfectly sincere; Dean Swift says, Parisian ladies do not follow the’ Princess of \Vales’ style in wearing the hair, for she has not changed it materially in eight years. It is very fashionable for young ladies to learn to play the violin, and there are several orchestras throughout the State said to make very good music. \Vhere men place their stars and orders, women now wear an emblem which may speak a language. Sometimes it expresses a political Opinion, ‘ a. cherished faith, a souvenir, or even a secret. Thus some wear the lilies of France, the violets of the em- pire, birds, beasts or other heraldic in- signia. The question is asked whether it is worse for the Chinese to admire a. small, deformed foot than for the French and English to ad- mire a. small, deformed waist. Some of the “ alsthetic” ladies of London wear sad sick green trimmed \Vlth biliuus blue. The pest of the potato crop, the Colorado Beetle, must he held in check by a thorough use of Paris Green, or the equally efficient London Purple, which is preferred by some as easier to apply, and cheaper. Both these substances are deadly poisons, and must be stored in a secure place, and used with cau- tion, or serious results may follow. There is no danger in careful hands. Buckwheat may he sown in June, and make a profitable crop, especially on new ground. It greatly helps to loosen up and mellow the soil. The kind known as Silver Hull is the superior variety, the yield is said to be larger and the flour better than that of the common sort. Work With the Crops. M A PRACTICAL AGRICULTUMsT. Frequent cultivation is necessary to des- troy the weeds in the corn field, and to keep the soil mellow, While the corn is small, a, smoothing harrow can be used to advantage, to be followed by the cultivator and hoe as the plants get larger. It is true economy to do as much of the work of corn culture as possible with the horse-plow. The double cultivatos is more efficient than one fora single horse, and does not cost any more for the driver. It should'be remembered that much of the work of tillage in the corn field counts upon the crops that are to follow, its beneficial influence being felt throughout the whole rotation. Therefore charge a part of the labor to succeeding crops. The culti- vator should go over the corn ground about once a week during the rapidly growing part of the season. It does not matter that there are no weeds to be seen, the soil is loosened, growth stimulated, and the weeds that are just started are killed before they do any harm. It is best to sow fodder corn in drills 2i.- to 3fcet apart, and at intervals of ten days, for a number of weeks from this time on, so that there may be a continuous sup- ply of green food. If the seed is sown broadcast, the plants cannot be cultivated while young, and this early attention is important to insure a good crop. The notion that sweet corn makes the best corn fodder is not well founded. The fact that the grain is sweeter does not indicate that the whole plant is therefore better. The smaller and leafy varieties of corn are best on ac- count of the superior quality of the finer fodder. The rye ground that is cleared by this time may be prepared immediately, and planted to fodder corn. Hungarian grass may follow the rye, and be cut off in time for sowing rye in Autumn. Swedish turnips may be sown this month, and should be in drills 30 inches apart. It is best to put in plenty of seed, to insure a uniform growthâ€"â€" it is easy to thin them out. Two pounds of seed per acre is about the right amount. It is essential that the seed have a rich and mellow bed to start in. When the second leaf appears, thin the plants to 1‘2 to 15 inches in the rows. GRIT-CHAT FOR LADIES. AGRICULTURE. [OO<O>MJ boo <<O>>o¢ '1; I’ll]! DAL LIVING WATER STAR Auger, bores 5 to 25 inch.
