Winter Butter.

ing nearly half century on butter-mak-
inc in the winter, We have come TO the
following conclusion rs the best way We
have tried vet viz: As soon as the milk
is strained we set the pans on the stove
or some other hot place, till it is nearly
or quite scalding hot; then we remove
the pans into closet near the cooking
stove where the thermometer ranges from
40 TO 90 degrees night and day; then,
after the cream is well risen and taken
oil, it is kept in the same closet till churn-
ed: an operation which takes us from
10 TO 80 minutes, and gives us equally as
good and yellow butter as We churn in
the summer, provided We keep the cream
no longer than in the summer. We
have tried keeping our cream in the sum
mcr dairy-room, and sometimes it would
freeze, and o, the dreaded day OF churn-
ing would come, which would prove ~
mans work." IL not more, of from to 8,
10 OF 20 hours, and sometimes prove a

be reserved to shorten doughnuts. II

How John Wolfe got his Rich
Wife.

Twas passing Wolfc's store, the othe'
day, with brother book-kecper, whcr
we noticed very neat carriage stop Al
the store, and one of the prettiest womer
in New York get out Of it.
There said my companion is Johr
Wolfe's rich wife. What luck some fel
lows have in the world! Born rich them
selves, they continually gather riches
while we poor devils never can seem tc
get rid OF the blamed wooden spoon tha,
Dame Fortune stuck into our unfortunate
mouths when we came into this blessed
world. But, rich or poor, hang mo if ]
would hunt up rich wife any how. II
is rather mean business to be marrying
a woman for her money
well, my good fellow said |, you
happen to be wide of the mark this time.
| know how John Wolfe got his rich wife,
and can assure you that he did not marry
her for her money; and moreover, did
not dream of ever getting one cent with
her.
.Ay,' said he, snceringly, all these rich
fellows pretend that they don't care any
thing about it; but don't you think am
quite SO green as to believe any such stuff
as that. Facts speak louder than words,
and We all know that John Wolfe has a
rich WIFE
Yes / replied, and pretty as rich, and
good as pretty, and loving as good
'Oh, ho! he exclaimed, Il guess you
must have fallen in love with her; rather
a pity you were married so long ago.
YOU might have cut out John, and got a
rich wife yourself
Not a bit of it, said !, but You shall
hear the whole story if you will come in
my house to-right, and while We have our
smoke on the piazza, I'll see il l cannot

position

CHAPTER III.

How I cnne TO Know MI Aboat 10.
About five years ago, John Wolfe's
book-kccpcr married nice, pretty little
girl up in his native village, in Vermont,
brought her down to New York, and
started housekeeping, in the very snug,
gest cottage in Brooklyn. was invited
to The house-warming, and more de-
lightthl evening does not often checker
the duh business OF life than we passed.
There was not over n dozen Of us, male
and female; but we were all cronies, and
intimate enough to be as free and pleas
ant together as VIC would be at home.
The party broke up at twelve, and
Mrs. Dick and myself trotted home as
satisfied with our evenings enjoyment as
need be.
Just one week after that my wife told
me, with tears in her cycs, that John
Wolfc's book-kccper had been quite un-
well for two days past, and not an hour
before had suddenly expired, while sitting
by the fircside, with scarcely a spasm OF
u pang. a disease Of the heart had car,
ried him of ths unexpectedly, and his
wife was in terrible afiliction. did not
lose moment in running around to his
house and offering what little sympathy
and assistance it was in my power to be,
stow; and, Of course, took upon myself
to do whatever was necessary upon so sad
an occasion. The young widow was ter
ribly cut down, and, at such distance
from her own friends and relatives seem
cd more than usually forlorn. We did
all we could to relieve her aftliction, and
after the funeral had taken place, sue
ceeded in calming her grief to some smsl
extent. then took the liberty Of inquir
ing little into her affairs, and discover
ed that my poor friend, with careless
ness which was too characteristic Of him
had involved himself considerably in deb
to furnish his house for his young wife,

His Life made the acquaintance
Of the lIttle gsh, Cupid.

Of the IIiiIs god, C.pid.
The young widow returned to hei
friends in Vermont, and what followed, al
though | did not get acquainted with the
facts until very short time ago, l shall
proceed to tell YOU in the order they oc.
Cured.
Within week or so after her arrival
at her old home, John Wolfe received a
letter from her father, returning him the
thousand dollars so kindly advanced to
his daughter, with profusion Of thanks
for his kindness to his bercaved child,
and expressing strong desire to be able
to repay it by any service it might be in
his power to perform in return. But
there was also another inclosure, which
John, it seems, thought great deal more
about than the old mans and the thou
sand dollars, and this was letter from
the young widow herself so brimful Of
gratitude, that he began to be almost
ashamed to think that he had done so
little for so rich return, and was rather
sorry that he had not found time to have
gone personally to comfort her in her
sore affliction.
do not exactly know how it came
about, but one letter brought on another,
until pretty regular correspondence
sprang up between them. 1t happened,
also, very soon after this, that the wild.
ow's father, who was retired lawyer,
living on the frugal savings Of frugal
lite, was able to confer very considera-
ble favor on John Wolfe's house, by saw
ing them from severe loss by dishon.
est customer who had suddenly taken Il
into his head, after lifetime of honesty,
to turn rogue, sell his stock Of goods to o
cash customer, who presented himself
just at the right time, and slip of to Cal
ifornia with the proceeds. ....
A friend of the old lawyer was employ
ed to draw up the bill Of sale, who men
toned to him, casually, that so and sc
was selling out and going to the new land
Of promise; and knowing that this indi
vidual was largely indebted to wolfe''
house, he quietly slipped himself of Z
New York By the first stage, withou
mentioning to any one but his wife ant
daughter where he Was going. Arrivel
In New York, he introduced himself per
sonally, to John Wolfe, and then. pro

business which brought him to the city
