Sterling Advice.

A lady makes some sensible sugges-
tons, in London journal, on the
subject of marriage or celibacy, a few of
which we annex, and say that there is
IA good deal of truth in them
"When Il girl marlies she ought, to a
certain extent, to give up heracquant-
ances, and consider the company of her
husband the best company she can
have. The young wife must learn cook
ing carefully, if she does not already
have good knowledge of it. There are
many excellent cookery books, but she
must not follow them implicitly. My
own plan, for some time after ! was
married, was to take some recipe given,
and note carefully what ingredients
could be dispensed with. The second
time | generally managed it at half the
expense. A useful plan is to keep II
blank book in the kitchen-tab drawer,
and whenever n deviation from the
orthodox cookery book is made, to iot it
down. DO not wait till you have wash
ed your hands let the book be finger
marked rather than lose an idea. You
will thus learn more of household econ
omy than if you trust to memory alone
and when your daughters grow up, what
a fund of practical information it will be
for them
"To great extent, the cehbacy of
our young men is owing to the way in
which girls are brought up. Through
mistaken kindness. mothers often them
selves do what they ought to make their
daughters do. Let them teach house
keeping on a fixed, methodical plan. and
they will then learn their history. French
and music I'LL the better 1t is natural
and right that mother should wish to
see her daughters well educated and even
highly accomplished and it is a mistake
that good and careful education should
unfit girl for the homely duties of cook
ing, busting, etc. On the contrary,
those duties would be better performed
If mothers would, at the same time that
they seek talented instructors for their
daughters, impart to them some of their
own culinary talent there would be
more wives and marriages. Little girls
should be taught, rs early as possible,
to perform simple household luties
neatly; and as they grow older, let
them become gradually acquainted with
the theory of housekeeping in such a
manner that, when they are married,
they will be able to adapt themselves to
their circumstances. and be useful as
well rs pleasing companions to their
husbands

A Chinese Road.

Some two or three hundred years gone
by, says Jas. Brooks IN II letter, some

to make n road of granite blocks, some
five or six feet long by two wide, upon n

Disguised as a Woman for Ten Years.

A correspondent sends the story of
man who has been disguised as n woman
for ten wears. He relates the account rs
follows: At the Sessions of Ballyneety,
Scotland, a person who has passed by
the name of Bridget Fleming, and who
has been in the employ of several farm
ers in the neighborhood of Ballinagrade
and Ballyneety in the different capacities
of female servant, the most recent being
that of darymaid with farmer living
at a distance of half mile from the
latter village, during the past twelve
months, was brought before the magis
trate, charged with being different sex
from that assumed. The prisoner had
been remanded from previous exam
nation, mt which his sex had been fully
proved, and had given bail for his sec
ond appearance, and presented himself
when called upon very neatly dressed in
female attire, and conducted himself
with the most nonchalance. From the
facts elected it appears that the prison
er was between nineteen and twenty
years of age, during the past ten of
which he had earned his living by such
occupations as those usually pursued by
females and had always passed for one
of that seX-assistng In washing and
making-up of clothes, could sew with
great ueatness and had always made his
own clothing and undertaking. besides
assisting others at the same employment,
had most excellent character from his
various employers, and had always OBJ
tanned the very highest wages, being
remarkably expert, clever and indus
trious."

How they Collect a Debt AT Saratoga.

How a recalcitrant debtor was forced
into liquidation is thus shown in the
Troy Times: A man at Saratoga has
made 1t n boast for some time past that
he could not be compelled to pay a
debt except as he pleased Recently a
man there obtained an execution for
something over $40 against tins boaster.
and Constable Paine of that place sue
ceeded in obtaining portion of the sum
i'll this wise Learning that this man
was in the habit of buckine the tiger"
at a certain place, he took occasion to
call and watch the game. He found the
man with pile of chips representing
about - before him. As that was less
than half his execution he thought he
would wait little for the chances.
Soon turn of the game took off 50 of
