Mary looked very pretty that night at
the tea party, for her eyes shone with a
purpose, and she had just excitement G.
nough about il to redden her cheeks in n
very becoming manner. Add to this that
she was dressed with neatness and taste.
and you will not be unwilling TO believe
me when | say that she was quito the belle
OF the occasion. Joe evidently thought so
himself; for, strange to say, be made no
remarks on her appearance that night cal
culated to lower her self-cstecm but con
trarywisc gazed at her, from time to time,
with most profound satisfaction.
But, Murder will out 1t came on this
occasion, when they sat down 10 supper.
Everybody was delighted; there had not
been such an unexceptionable tea in that
neighborhood for long time Country
people are very fond of their 'tcas > they
compare one with another with admirable
conuoisseurship. This one was a triumph.
Mrs. Vane, you are the perfection of
bread makers Your biscuits are quite
beautiful. Were ever such crullers made
How do you manage it, Mrs. Vane +? What
lovely sponge cake |!
Mrs. Vane and Mary occasionally chang
ed glances and smiled, but nobody noticed
it. Joe had been behaving so beautifully
all the evening, that Mary began to be a
fraid her plans had failed He came out
now however, greatly to Mary's satisfaction.
This is feast, indeed ho said.
"A fellow is fortunate who has a wife
that can make such bread as this, to say
nothing of the sponge cake. can't see
why 1T is, Mary-you improve, it is true, l
give you credit for that but don't see why
1t Is that all women cannot have the knack
that Mrs. Vane has, at cooking to perfec-
ton. If you could make such bread as
this, Mary, your husband would be hap
Ply man.
Mrs. Vaue looked at Mary, and Mary
looked at Mrs. Vane. Light was breaking
upon the mind of the latter. 1t broke like
a flash of lightning, and then there was an
explosion-not of thunder, but of laughter
Joe looked up amazed
He was a man who petted his dignity e.
Enormously. What did these women mean
to laugh SO at sober, sensible remark of
his Particularly, what could Mary mean
to so trife with the respect she owed her
husband
lie began to growvery red, indeed. Mrs.
Vane saw it presently, and came to his and
Mary's relief; for poor Mary had already
began to be little frightened at the sue
cess of her own scheme. She did not Xix e
Joe to be angry at any rate.
'Mr. Starr, said Mrs. Vane, Il am truly
glad you like this very excellent cookery
forit is all your wife's. BY your own show.
ing, you ought to be a happy man.
Here the whole company caught the in
lection, and joined in the laugh against Joe.
1t was of no use getting angry with so ma
ny people; so, before long, Joe joined in
the chorus himself.
And so the tea party broke up With the
greatest good nature all around, and, Joe
went home with lesson he never forgot ;
for twas the last time that NJ airy ever heard
any complaints from him. He is now the
most easily pleased of any husband for ten
miles around.

COTTAGE CHEEsE.-When the tea ket-
tie boils pour the water into pan of 'lop-
pard' milk it will curd at once; stir aud
turn it into collander, pour little cold
water over it, salt it, and break it up. A
better way is to put equal parts Of butter
milk and thick milk in a kettle over the
fire, heat it almost boiling hot; pour into a
linen bag, and let it drain till next day
Then take it out, salt it, put in little
cream or butter as it may be thick or not, &
make it up into balls the size Of an orange.

THE SECRET OF SUCCEss.-The experi.
euce ofall who have had to fight the battle
Of life, aud who stand upon victorious van
tage ground, is that success which will
stand the test Of time is for the most part
achieved by integrity and punctual atten-
ton to business. These qualities get ahead
Of genius and talent 10 the race Of life
We notice in one Of our most valued ex-
changes, the New York Journal Of Com q
merce, that mention is made Of young
man slow Of speech, rather dull Of appre-
hension and not enterprising in the way of
business, who with difficulty obtained an
under situation at a FIRST class business house.
The clerk was industrious, constant, faith
ful and unfinchiDgly honest. His work was
never too heavy, the hours Of labor mover
too long and his task never too humiliatinp
To day that once plodding clerk is a pillar
Of strength in bis employers house, aud
more trusted and beloved than any other
employee Smartness is good thing {,
grace and aptness are admirable character
istics facilities for turning of work rapid
ly Is excellent in its way; but downright,
old fashioned honesty ofpurposo, with plain
straight forward old fashioned industry will
make the strongest mark 10 the lapse Of
years.

EEIt is sweet and pleasant thought
that when all these days of pain aud sorrow
and work are euded-these days of contend
ing and unrest-there will come the folding
Of hands. 1t is sweet, when sorrow and
WEAKNESS are our only companions, to re-
member that the hour is Lot far away when
the Father will fold the tired hands of His
child in His, will seal the aching eye with
sleep, and breathe under It's trembling lid
the sweet dream of heaven. Weary not, nor
faint; the Father sees you, and though you
know it not, His hand leads you. A little
pain aud a little labor He metes you for
your good be patient, and when the night
comes lie will give you rest.-MarUin.

Life Is happy; hear the birds
Early as the morning breaks,
Every sweet-toned throat OF silver
Into songs OF gladness breaks.
Life is happy see the kitten
Darling in and out the door,
Racing, rolling, mad with frolic,
On the sunny, nursery floor.
Life is happy; on the flowers
See the gay, white butterflies
In the sweet delight Of motion
How they Hutter, fall, and rise.
Life is happy in the brooklets
See the minnows glance and dive.
Full Of freedom aud Of gladness,
All old oceans tenants live.
Life is happy; see the insects,
Free, and frolicsome, and fair.
lowering cloud Of blissful motion,
Filling all the summer air.
Thus for all Gods humble creatures
Happiness was surely meant.
Let not, then, in sad repining
Any human life be spent.
"Falls not to the ground sparrow,
Without notice of your Lord.
How much more are ye than sparrows1
Was our Saviours precious word.
Let us trust Him, then, for gladness
And, for all his blessings lent
Render thankful praise, and give Him
Hearts and lives of sweet content.
