b Patient.

Be patient with the little ones. Let
neither their slow understanding or occa-
sional pertness offend you, or provoke the
sharp reproof. Remember the world z
new to them, and they have no slight task
to grasp with their unripened inteiiects
the mas of facts and truths that crowd
upon their attention. Your are grown 70
maturity and strength, through years OF
experience, and it i'll becomes you to fret
Ct the little child that fails to keep pace
with your thought. Teach him patiently,
6 God teaches you, "line upon line. pre-
cept upon precept; here little and there
q little" Cheer him in his conflict or
mind in after years his ripe, rich thought
shall rise up and call you blessed.
Bide patiently the endless questioning
of your children. Do not roughly crush
the spirit of free inquiry, with an impa
tent word or frown, nor attempt, on the
contrary, Q long and instructive reply to ev-
ery slight and casual question. Seek rather
to deepen their curiosity. Convert, II posn
BILE, the careless question into proiouud
and earnest inquiry, and aim rather TO d.
rect and aid than to answer the inquiry.
Let your reply send the little cuestioner
forth, not 20 much proud Of what he has
learned, - anxious TO know more. Happy
are you, If, in giving your child the NOR
eel of truth he asks for, you can sharpen
his curiosity with glimpse Of the noun
tain of truth lying beyond; 20 wilt thou
send forth . philosopher, And not nly
pedsnt, into the world.

"A curious sort Of tragedy has taken
place at Goldberg, a garrison town on the
shores Of the Baltic. Lieutenant Won
Frsnck, an officer who had served with
much distinction in the campaign Of 1865,
having quarrelled with a hotel-keeptI
about the amount Of his bill, resorted To
an argument unfortunately too often en-
ployed in the Prussian army, by drawing
his sword on his adversary. The latter,
however, being an active and powerful
man, succeeded in Wrestling the weapon
from his grasp, and broke it in pieces. A
reconciliation was then effected by the
bystanders, but the officer was 30 morti.

had been subjected that he declared he
could not live under the insult. Though
every effort was made to dlss uade him
from his determination, and all the per-
sons present promised to preserve the
strictest secrecy concerning the affair, he
adhered to his purpose. After taking an
sffectionate leave OF his comrades, he went
home, babe farewell to his landlsdy, whom
he met at the door, and, having locked
himself in his room and Invested himself
of his uniform, blew cut his brains with

Dog Driving In Alaska.

Ny team comprised three dogs The
leader was fine black dog named Ikkee,
who had magnificent bushy tail, which
was always erect and curly. The next
one was black and white, and called 6a-
waska, hard worker and of amiable dis
position. Next the sled was old Kamuk,
my favorite. and the ugliest dog in the
brigade. His tail, poorly furnished with
hair, was usually between his legs; his
ears were short, and scored with the
marks Of many battleA His face WAS stolid
and exhibited emotion only when feeding
time came, or when some other dog ven
tured too near or Jagged behind. His body
was large. and his legs were like pillars /;
his color was white, with dirty spots. Al
together he looked coed deal like . lean
pig. But how he would pull

ed and decorous. All are very practical,
showing affection only for the man who
feeds them. and for him only - long as
he feeds them. Hence the voyager should
always feed his own team himself. They
dislike the whip, not only when In use,

they pass on the road. When travelling

and the driver is not ready with his help
in urging the sled over it, down they all
drop on their launches, wagging their
tails. and looking about with pleased
expression, or uttering sentimental howl.
With crack of the whip, and shout for
Kamuk to stir himself, their reveries are
broken, and We 60 on. Going down hill
the whip and lungs are again called into

way of the descending sled.

1t is bad business this, of losing situa-
tions. It Is bad sign, too, for it is pre-.
sumptive proof that the loser does not de.
serve the situations he fails to retain. 1t
may not he ON account of dishonesty, or
drunkenness, or immortality; these are
giant vices that condemn their victim in
all places and circumstances. The young
man who ii dishonest, or addicted to dis
sipatiOn and licentiousness, need not ex-
pect to be trusted with the business of
others; it is . wonder that he should ever
get Q plaos-much more that he should
keep it. But the severe exactions Of hAsi;
ness in these times require something y
of . young man than exemption from
faults and vices they demand positive
virtues and aptitudes. A young man may
possess exemplary morals he may have
no bad habits; he may datter himself that
he has good education, that he writes
good hand, that he * quick at figures, q
mathematician, a linguist, and q scholar.
All this is well bat it is not enough |:
these 1. compliments are graces that
adorn q character, and give satisfaction TO
their possessor bat they do not mean
business. Situations demand not merely
the absence OF bad habits; they exact good
habits, such az diligence, industry, cheer
ful willingness to work, without measur.
ing the allotted task; vigilant watchful.
ness over the employers interest; the
practice of doing things thoroughly and
effectively; promptness and reliability.
All these may be possessed by men of
only ordinary talents and indiffer.
emit education bat they wiz enable
such man to hold his situation, and rise
higher and higher in his employers favor
while Q young man Of superior talents
education and accomplishments, who IL
destitute Of these sterling qualities, will
lose one position after another. 1t is .
pitiable sight TO see man out OF business,
and without means, appealing to personal
friends to assist him to get place. He
deserves sympathy and aid, and his friends,
should not fail to encourage and assist
him. But there are too many young men
seeking clerkships and agencies, who want
not the situation, but its salary they desire
good wages with little labor; they want
to do - little work and 70 earn % much
money ~ possible. They perform their
duties, but decline to perform more than
their duties; they are languid, listless and
Indifferent /; they take no active interest In
the fortunes Of their employer, and put
themselves to no trouble TO win his favor
These are the men who lose situations
without knowing exactly why. Ha man,
young or old, would always retain his
situation and win favor, let him make
himself indispensable to his employers.
The task il not difficult one, and win be
worth more than he imagines.- Ercsan9e.

No one of the rapid processes Of cook
ing, however, is 90 generally abused a.
frying. The frying pan has awful sins to
answer for. What untold horrors OF dys-
persia have arisen from it's smoky depths,
like the ghosts from witches caldrons
The fizzle of frying meat is q warning
knell on many IN ear, saying, "Touch not,
tlste not, il you would not burn and
writhe!"
Yet those who have travelled abroad re-
member that some of the ightest, most
paiata6ie, ana most digestible preparations
of meat have come from this dangerous
source. But we fancy quite other rites
and ceremonies inaugurated the process,
and uuitc otner hands performed it, Offices,
than those Known to our kitchens. Prob.
ably the delicate cetclettss of France are
not Topped down into half melted grease,
there gradually to warm and soak and
fizzle, while Biddy goes In and out on her
other ministrations, till finally, they are
thoroughly saturated, and IS dinner hour
impends she bethinks herself, and crowds
tho FIRE below to roaring heat, and
finishes the process by smart burn, In.
volving the kitchen and surrounding pre-
cincts in Stygian gloom. From such
preparations has arisen the very current
medical opinion that fried meats are indi.
gestible. They are indigestible, II they
are greasy but French cooks have taught
US that thing has no more need to be
greasy because emerging from grease than
Venus had to be salt because she rose from
the sea.
There are two ways of frying employ
| ed by the French cook. One IS, to i'm
merse the article to be coosed in boiling
fat, with an emphasis on the present par
ticiple-and the philosophical principle
is so Immediately to crisp every pore, at
the first moment or two of immersion, 30
efYectually to seal the interior against the
intrusion of greasy particles; 1t can then
remain as long Is may be necessary thor
oughly TO cook it, without imbibing any
more Of the boiling fluid than II 1t were
inclosed in an egg shell. The other meth
cd is to rub a perfectly smooth iron
surface with just enough OF some oily
substance to prevent the meat from ad
herring, and cook it with a quick heat, II
cakes are baked on . griddle. In both
these cases there must be the most rapid
application Of heat that can be made
without burning, and by the adroitness
shown In working out this problem the
skill OF the cook is tested. Any one
whose cook attains this important secret
will find fried things quite as digestible
and often more palatable, than others
