Guests. Mr. Emerson alludes, somewhere, to the flutter in every well-regulated house hold, when a stranger approaches. Now, if the household is not well regulated, tho flutter is apt to be a very seriouj matter. We know that the children, n 1 least, are very glad to see "company, ' for, though they may rebel at th J thought of clean faces and clean dresser, and good behavior, they ore apt to loo i forward to a "good time" and an unlimited dessert. Sometimes older people, too, en jo having visitors. Longfellow tells us, i i Kavanaugh, that his hero would havj liked company every day iu the year, but it may be that his heroine (if a com fortable matron may be called by so romantic a title) would not. The truth is, that "guests," when ono sits in the shadow of a dreadful till Bridget appears with hard-boiled eggs and overdone beefsteak, to make one soliloquize : "Oh, my prophetic soul," etc., sometimes give us trouble. It is true that over-refined good breeding may cause them to smile over tho excellence of the cook's failures, but there are many establishments where household affairs do no always admit of a visitor. Perhaps this Turk, with his eternal pipe, and the Arab, in his very portable tent, may be always ready to "welcome the coming" but more civilized nations eagerly "speed the parting guest." It would hardly be possible, in this connection, to forego mentioning thai the most common of guests, have been lately forbidden by law to cross our thresholds. "Much might be said on both sides," in regard to tramps. We hear dreadful stories of their behavior, and the word that describes them usually calls up a fancy-painted picture, touched with lurid colors. We see a fierce, sullen, robber-like personage, who seems to have escaped from the mountains of Italy, or at least tho plantations of the Old South, armed with the traditional bowie-knife. Still he is sometimes a mild-mannered young man, willing to work for a very plain breakfast. It will not do to dismiss the subject without a few words in regard to the treatment of guests. A few of the points which distinguish tho "perfect hostess" are, perhaps, a certain facility of putting each guest at his ease, conveying the impression that the welcome she gives is a personal, if not an especial one, her pleasant manner, and her charming serenity. Her tact is such that she is ready for any emergency, and she has the rare gift of saying tho right thing at tho right time, aud to the right person. But even if one can not be a "perfect hostess," one may, at least, show the truest politeness to guests, by cordially offering the best one has, and suggesting no possibility of feeling mortified that one has nothing more desirable to give. Eider-Down Ducks. The beautiful eider-down ducks which abound in the cold lalitudo of Norway are a source of great revenue, and are sole property of the inhabitants. They are protected by the laws of Norway, so that no stray sportsman is allowed to Hhoot them. I loarnod the mode of pro curing tho down : When the duck is about to lay, she plucks down from her own breast, tho male plucks it from his, and they spread a thick lining of it all over the nest. When the nest is completed tho owner removes the down ; the patient duck fills it a second and third time, when it is removed; but the fourth time it is allowed to remain. Thus the women and girls find enough to employ themselves in tending to these thousands of nests, while the men and boys make ' and mend their nets and get fish for oil and curing.
