Ice Cream i'm II Short Time.

How few housekeepers are
there who have learned the art
Of freezing ice cream. We have
known many persons who would
work and sweat and blow over
a freezer of cream for even
hours, when by following a few
simple directions the work
could be accomplished in a few
hours.
In the first place the ice must
be broke into very small pieces,
none of them being larger than
hickory nut. Place your
freezer in a tub which is smaller
at the bottom than at the top.
Begin by putting in layer Of
ice, say two inches deep, tina
cover it with one inch of fin
salt, then two inches of ice and
one of salt until the top is
reached.
Now pour in your cream, cover
the freezer with a course wooden
cloth, and turn it backwards
and forwards quite vigorously
for a few minutes, then with Z.
long knife cut the frozen cream
from the sides, then cover up,
give it few more turns, cut
the cream away again, and con-
tinue until it is frozen to suit.
Remember that the water must
not be taken from the tub only
to prevent its OVERLOOKING the
freezer, and always keep it fill
ed with the ice and salt.

THE LAST SPIKE.-The following letter
was received last night by that old pioneer oil
stage drivers-Hank Monk. 1t explains it.
self and reads:
ELKo, May 18th, 1862
Mr.. Hank Monk. Esq, alas the Jehu
Chief of the Pacific Coast-Dear Sir: BY
the request Of the officers of the U. p. and
c. p. Roads, and in consideration of the
high esteem they have for you, we are re-
quested to present you with one of the silver
spikes used in uniting the longest continental
rail in the world hoping you will ever keep
1t as momento Of our regards, we remain
yours, truly, U. P. & G. P. r. Il. Co.
The spike is timely gift, but comes as
amomento of rusty stages and faithful dri-
vers gone to rest. No more will Hank be
called upon to tell Horace Greeley to keep
his seat The old stage horses have gone
to grass, the last spike driven made stage
coaching a history of the past, and faithful
stage drivers like Hank Monk-men who
had in their charge the safety and lives of
men, women and children now retire, with
the blessings OF all. and good wishes for
their prosperity in other occupations.

HANK Monk got d" last spike" yester-
day. Il was presented to him By some ap-
preciative cuss at Elko. This beautiful and
appreciative gift was accompanied by high
toned letter from an authorized proxy for
the c. P. Il. r. and U. p. r. r. combined.
This spike was evidently stolen from Chi
nese railroader AMI coated with silver Of the
tin foil variety by somebody who had used
up paper of Solace and wisely employed
the wrapper in the artistic manner indicated.
Hank deserves bushel or two of spikes OF
pure bullion and in this connection it is
not inappropriate to say that the Railroad
Companies, having used up the staging bus
mess, ought to provide employment for the
old drivers. We don't know whether Hank
would have such place, but we speak for
the fraternity. Of which he is q member in
good standing.

a TERRIFIC DOG FIGHT occurred at the
Warm Springs onyesterday between the bull
dogs named Rather " and Crib" owned
by two gentlemen residing in that vicinity
The meeting Of the dogs was purely acciden-
tai, but when they did meet, a thunder storm
would be no comparison to the noise made.
Legs, jaw bones, and blood few in every di-
recti1n the air was alive with dust and
small rocks, and the encouraging voices Of
their owners Of " Go for him, Crib" and
Snail him, Rather" \ crowd gathered
and bets were offered on each favorite and
freely taken, bat the dogs after fighting a
full half hour threw up the sponge, and
SUNK away to their separate kennels.
Strange to say no man fight occurred.

said, Boys, take a drink" Everybody
stood in. The fixtures consist of cork
screw, a lemon squeezer, and lime knife, all
silver plated, and taken all together would
make fine ornament for a family side

J. The Power of Forgiveness.

A soldier, whose regiment lay in a
garrison town in England, was about
to be brought before his commanding
officer for some offense. He was an
old offender, and had been often pun
ished. 'iHere he is again" said the
officer, on his name being mentioned;
"everything-Aogging, disgrace, i'm
prisonment-has been tried upon
him." Whereupon the sergeant step
ped forward, and apologizing for the
liberty he took, said
"There is one thing which'has new
er been done with him yet, sir"
"What is that ?" was the inquiry.
"Well, sir" said the sergeant, ''he
has never been forgiven
"Forgiven!" said the colonel, sur
prised at the suggestion.
He reflected for few moments, or
dered the culprit to be brought in, and
asked him what he had to say to the
charge?
Nothing, sir" was thereby; "only
I am sorry for what L have DONE"
Turning a kind and pitiful look on
the man, who expected nothing else
than that his punishment would be
increased with the repititiOn Of his
offense, the colonel addressed him
saying: "Well, we have resolved to
forgive youW
The soldier was Aruck dumb with
establishment; the tears started in his
eyes, and he wept like child. He
was humbled to the dust he thanked
his officer and retired-tO the old re-
fractory, incorrigible man? No; he
was another man from that day for
ward. He who tells the story had him
for years under his eye, and better
conducted man never wore the Queens
colors. In him kindness bent one
whom harshness could not break !;
he was conquered by mercy, and, for
given, ever afterward feared to offend.

MATRIMONIAL LOTTERY.-A short
time since at a wedding in South Car
olina, young lawyer moved that one
man in the company should be select
ed as president, that this president
should be duly sworn to keep entirely
secret all the communications that
should be forwarded to him in his of
fetal department that night, that each
unmarried gentlemen and lady should
write his or her name on a piece OF
paper, and under it place the name OF
the person they wish to marry, then
hand it to the president for inspection,
and if any gentleman and lady had
reeiprocally chosen each other the
president was to inform each of the
result, and those who had not been
reciprocal in their choice were to be
kept entirely secret. After the ap-
pointment of the president, eommu-
nications were accordingly handed up
to the chair, and it was found that
twelve young ladies and gentlemen
had reciprocal choices, and eleven of
the twelve matches were solemnized.
Western Reserve chronicle. [volume] (Warren, Ohio) 1855-1921, 1869-03-03

-Voltaire said: "The
more married men you have, the few
er the crimes there will be-" Mar
riage renders a man more virtuous
and more wise. An unmarried man
is but half a perfect being. and re-
uuires the other half to make things
right; and it cannot be expected that
in this imperfect state he keeps the
straight path of rectitude any more
than a boat with one oar, or a bird
with one wing can keep a straight
course. In nine cases out of ten,
when married men become drunkards,
or when they commit crimes against
the community, the foundation of
their acts is laid while in single state
or where the wife is, as is sometimes
the case, an unsuitable match. Mar
riage changes the current of mans
feelings, and gives him q center for
his thoughts, his feelings and his acts.
Here is a home for the entire man,
and the interest of his better half
keeps him from erratic courses, and
from falling into a thousand tempta-
tions to which he would otherwise be
exposed. Therefore, the friend to
marriage is friend to society and to
his country.
