SETTING GLASS WITHOUT PUrrY.-The
method of setting glass without putty, recent
ly invented, is the following: The window
sash is made entirely of wood-the outside
permanent. The inside is framed in such a
manner that the parts can be readily remov.
ed, for the purpose of inserting the glass,
which is placed between slips of India rub.
ber, which, when the parts of the glass are
replaced, causes the glass to be perfectly
firm. The movable parts of the lass are
secured to their place by knob screw,
which makes pretty finish.

SHEEP AND DoGs.-The number of hogs
in the United States is said to exceed that
of sheep by nearly ten millions.-Exchange.
Which fact may be accounted for BY
counting the dogs. Until some plan is de.
vised for protecting sheep from dogs, this
never can be wool growing country. The
loss of sheep from dogs is incalculable, in
asmuch as the value OF those that would be
raised but for this impedment could not be
estimated. 1t is settled point that mutton
is much more healthful food than pork
The cost of raising it is not Tor would not
be if the loss was not to be counted, one
third that of pork, and yet the latter is the
staple animal diet of this country, while
people are compelled to do without wool that
others may keep set Of thieving dogs.
We see no reason why wool could not be
grown almost if not altogether as cheaply
US cotton, if it were not for the uncertainty
and actual loss occasioned by dogs; and its
superiority, for winter clothing, is well
known. 1t is piti(ul to see the poor, and
even those in medium circumstances, cloth
ed, women and children at least, in thin cot
ton fabrics when the wind whistles shrilly or
the pitiless frost bites keenly, to see them
deprived of the healthy and nutritious joint
of lamb and feeding on swine's flesh instead,
that worthless people may have worthless
dogs.
Some strenuous means should be adopted
to correct this evil, as it is very serious
drawback to our national prosperity, and the
individual comfort of more than half the
people, who are thus restricted in their use
of soft flannel garments, aud the most
wholesome meat, and compelled to use an
article instead which is positively injurious.

DARLING LOTTIE; OR.
HE pERILs OF HOUSEKEEPING

Miss Charlotte Jones was the daughter
of worthy and entcrprising carpenter,
who, settling in thriving village, became
m due time a builder, contractor and a
rorehapded man. His wife was as III
dustrious as himself, and more ambitious;
and among other blessings, they had a
fair daughter, Miss Charlotte, who was
80 pretty, as charming, indeed, as was
necessary 10 make the smartest and eiev-
crest young man in tie place fall IN love
with her-which he did.
Certainly he DID. lie was medical
student in the doctors Office right opPo-
site. AS he sat there studying anatomy
or making pills he could see Miss Char
lot,e in the parlor or the garden he
could hear her play on the plano-iorte,,
and sing, could see her doing ali sorts OF
wonderful worsted and crotchet wor&; and
he came to think that parlor one o.. the
delightful places in the world.
tYeIl--it was love affair, ali mu'hai
and pleasant: calls and moonshines, music
and billets, bushes, boquets, long Sunday
evenings, and finally ASK Pa!'-and then
, wedding-but Of course the diploma
came first, and the pe,ted Of the success

village, iii ncighhoriNg county; whereas
II happened, Mr. Jones owned neat cot

ne made his daughter marriage present.
aud there, on the termination oi the we'd
ding tour, they took up their residence
The good Mrs. Jones had put everything
10 nights Ii was in the most eXqui-
site 'apple-pie order and no young couple
Just beginning housekeeping, was ever
any better fixed.
Mrs. Jones, good soul, had always done
her own work. Help was dreadful
bother. Charlotte had been carefully ed
u,aled. She could do every ything-that
Is ever taught to young ladies'. She
knew ali science, and nearly ali languages;
,hat is, little. She could do all kinds
at fancy work. Her worsted eats and
wax Aours were wonderful; so were her
water color drawings, and her monochro-
matte sketohes were "hish art. Eycry
body said so.
R,t somehow. Mrs Jones, from a hab.
ol doing everything herself, had not given
Miss Charlotte fair chance in the klIch,

The Wife.

4 wife likes her husband 10 show her
all due respect in the presence OF others:
she cannot endure to be reprOved or crltl-
csed by hm when others can hear ii.
Indeed it is most wrong Ill husband
thus to put lis wife TO shame and we
cannot help secretly admirng the spirit OF
that French woman, who, when her hus-
band had thus wronged her, refused ever
again to utter a word, and for twenty
wears lived in the house a dumb woman.
We admire her spirit, though not her
mode of manitestng it. Husbands owe
the most profound respect to their wives,
for their wives are the mothers OF their
children. No man has the slightest claim
to the character of gentleman, who Is not
more scrupulousiy polite to his wife than
TO any other woman. We refer here to
the essentials of politeness, and not to It's
forms; we mean kindness ard Justice in
little things.
A wife likes her husband to be consult
crate. Unexpected kindnesses and un-
solicited favors, touch her heart. She ap-
preciates the soltcncd tread when she is
sick; she enjoys the gift brought from A
distance, and everything that proves 10
her that her husband thinks OF her com
fort and her good.
Husbands, reflect upon these things
Your wife has conGdcd her happiness to
YOU. You can make it unsPeakahIy
wretched, if you are ignobIe and short
sighted. let the contest between hns-
bands and wives be this. Which shall Go
most for the happiness Of the other.
