The morning came /; there stood the
cream on the dresser, as yellow as a
maHgold ! the eggs were beaten to a
froth sugar, spices, all were ready and
Susy, bright and neat as new pin,
went fdgiting round, waiting for her
mistress to join the excursion, made up
expressly for the city party they were
going to the Falls.
Mrs. Lane, just ready to start. looked
in for second. 'Susy,' said she, fits
too bad to leave you alone have you
decided about the
%, ri make the pudd'n' exclaimed
Susy, little impatiently 1t shall all
be ready when you get back /; you've
trusted me before she added, with an
impatient toss of the head and to work
hurried the good simple girl, as soon
as her mistress disappeared, TO CRATE the
cheese.
Dinner time came, and saw sixteen
expe Giant faces ranged round the lex
tension and full justice did sixteen
good appetites do the fine turkey, chick
ems, and chicken fxin's, that were serv-
en- out with alacrity.
Meantime, in the kitchen, Susy had
arranged the pudding pans on the pine
table ready for dishing.
They lock nice on the top, that's cer-
tain,' she murmured, snufing somewhat
suspiciously the fact is, they didn't
smell as good as they looked and
when Susy had turned them into the
dishes, her heart failed her such a
medly as they presented Pools of
butter, clods of curdled cream, floating
cloves, bits of cheese, unhappily magot-
ty in appearance, and a musty uncer-
tain color, marked the 'Scientify pudd'n'
as something really remarkable.
Poor Susy she had only time to
spread over the crust, which she did in
kind of despair, before the summons
came and 'scientiffy, marched on, in
all the glory of its order, and was set
down right opposite the good hostess !;
while Susy shrunk out into the kitchen,
and vainly wished she was the grey old
tabby in the corner, purring so con-
tentedly.
Three times Mrs. Lane drew the spoon
forth, appalled,, and then with falter-
ing hand dealt out the delectable COM
pound. The guests looked down, the
pudd'n' looked up it evidently prom
ised to be hard to take each one wal
ted for his neighbor, and as the sixteen
spoons were raised almost Simultaneous

tainty as sat upon the elongated visages
there, was sight to behold. After the
first mouthful, might be heard a smoth-
cred coughing inside of pocket hand
kerchiefs, aud good breeding only,
kept the guests from springing from the
table and upsetting the 'pudd'n.'
Mrs. Lane was ready to weep for
vexarion she saw that Susy had made
failure, and very strange one she
rang the bell instantly, and the girl ap-
peared.
DO tell me, Susy, what you have
been fixing up, it's not fit for the
hogs she would have said, but proprie-
ty restrained her.
Please ma'am,' burst out the poor
girl, the long restrained tears rolling
over her round cheeks, please ma'am,

the very best, for it's the--scientify-
