A French Kitchen.

Such kitchen! We fell in love with
it Immediately, and were disposed to
eavy its future tenant; for when a
housewife understands her business,
cookery, i'll kitchen like that, becomes
an artistic pleasure-not mere drudgery.
This wonderful room is so small that it
seems like toy u,enGge, and yet every
convenience is found there in incest order
without the least crowding. The small
range and boiler is set into one side, with
two stationary square tubs in soapstone
or black-walnut filling up the row, a
two-foot sink and drop-table under
the large window, shaft for ashes and
refuse, well closed when not in use, an
elevator for sending up supplies, and a
glass cupboard on the remaining side
SO compact that there is all the room one
can possibly need without wasting steps
in a large apartment. This cabinet
kitchen, with its sparkling glasses, and
FURNISHED oven, and shining brass stop
cocks, seemed an ideal place which no
mortal hands were able to keep up to its
primitive excellence. To give SO spot
less nook to the savage rule of Bridget
would be pitiful. She could hardly turn
around with her distended crinoline
without rubbing the grease off her
skirts on these shining panels. IT is the
closet where a Lucy Snowe might take
down her dinner service of green and
white china, prepare salad, and turn a
outlet some day when she had given her
servant holiday, without more change
than covering her ROBE g'is with white
apron,

Learning TO Write.

Says Henry Ward Beecher: The very
best beginning which a child can make
is by letter writing. He will naturally
speak of things familiar to him. He
will, too, have an object to accomplish
by writing. He will naturally find topics
i'll the company, the events of domestic
life, the bern-yard happenings, the gar
den, the school, the mishaps or blunders
which are always going to those who
have aa eye to see them. There are three
kinds of writing, judged psychological
ly: descriptive writing, the fruit Of OBJ
servation, or the perceptive faculties
reflective writing, OF the fruit of the rea.
sening power; and emotional writings,
or those which give expression to the
feelings. OF course, the best compost.
tion is that which mingles all of these
But an learning to aorite, it makes a great
difference which of these modes of com
position, the perceptive, the reflective
or the emotional, is attempted
Descriptive writing is the most nat
ural for one beginning to write. Re-
Election comes much later than percep-
ton. But in order to descriptive writ
ing must be the habit of accurate OBJ
servation--sharp, discriminating, minute
One must not write what he has read in
the books about nature, but what he has
seen and made sure of. For example, to
speak OF the milkmaid's song, which is
so pleasing an element of old English
poetry, would be absurd in land where
men do the milking, and where women
almost never sing out of doors, being ac-
customed to only indoor work.
The whistling plowman has quite
died out in America. Thatched cot
tages, and woodbines in the hedge, and
crimson-tipped daises, and the larks that
sing at heavens gate, are all foreign.
Men do not see such things in America.
We do not "dance on the green" nor
hold reveis under the vast old oaks. Let
one begin by learning how to observe
let him put down in writing nothing
that he has not perceived if he is in
doubt about an epithet, or fact, let him
go out and ascertain-stick to Your own
eyes. Let what you write reflect truly
your ewn sensations, observations and
reflections. This may be rude. But be
rude and crude while learning to tell
just how nature looks to you, and not tc

A Horrible Execution.

The small city of Masos, in Monten-
egro, one of the Northern European de-
pendencies of the Sultan of Turkey, was
on the I'd of November last, the scene OF
the truly frightful punishment which
was meted out to Ave hardened high
waymen and murderers. By the laws
of the country the death penalty is in.
ficted for the smallest offences, and it is
on the statute books that for serious
offences the following penalty shall be
inflicted m
"The bones of their legs and their
knee Joints shall be broken by the pub
| lie executioner with an iro, club, and
upon their foreheads shall b imprinted
with red-hot iron, the word 'baro,
meaning 'felon.'
Five highwaymen we're captured and
sentenced to the above penalty.
| Close to the granite blocks stood an
iron pan filed with live coal, and in il
| lay the instruments, red-hot and Kissing
that were to leave their imprints upon
the foreheads of the criminals.
There was breathless and anxious
silence in the vast crowd when the exe-
cutioner drew from the pan one of The
branding irons, and slowly approached
Paolo Peruzzi, one of the criminals, with
it. The latter watched him steadtsstly,
and, upon pereeiving the red hot iron,
thick pearls of perspiratien gathered on
his brow. His hair seemed to stand on
end, and there was in his eyes an inde-
scribable expression of terror. The ex-
ecutioner now put the iron on Peruzzi's
brow, and in the next moment the GRIM
inal burst into loud lamentations. He
writhed and struggled to remove his
head from the instrument of torture, but
the executioner held it firmly to his fore
head for upward of minute. There
was sickening smell of burned flesh
when he withdrew it, and Peruzzi's face
presented ghastly sight. The other
fastened criminals writhed uReasily dur
ing the operation, and, when their turns
came. they all howled with pain, Neri
and Daviso screaming in heart-rending
tones for mercy. But their shrieks elic-
tied only the derisive sneers of the nu-
merous spectators.
And then followed the still more hor-
rible part of the tragedy. The execu-
toner drew from a curiously shaped
scabbard heavy iron club, resen bling
druggists pestel, and, running toward
the stones on which the first three Grim
inals were stretched out, began to strike
furiously upon their legs. The scene
which now ensued was sickening in the
extreme. The tortured wretches cried
at the top of their lungs while their low
er extremities were thus being beaten to
a jelly. Streams of perspiration ran down
the cheeks of the executioner when he
stopped, at last, and motioned to his
assistants to remove the crippled men
from the blocks.
The last two were then treated simi-
larly, Daviso, bowling in the most des-
perate manner while he underwent the
torture. Then the wretohes were freed
of their fetters and carried back to the
Jail, moaning in agonizing tones, and
Montenegrin justice was satisfied.

FOO Much Credit.

Mr. Keene, a shrewd and thrifty far
mer of Allenborough, owned a large
flock Of sheep, and one Autumn, when
it came housing time, he was greatly an
noyed upon missing number of his
finest muttons. among them three or
four wethers which he had raised and
fattened for his own table. He was sure
it was not the work of dogs, and the
most he could do was to await further
developments.
On the following Spring, when his
sheep were turned out to pasture, he in
stituted careful watch, and ere long he
tected Tom Stickney, neighboring far-
mer, in the act of pilfering sheep; but
he made no noise about it at the time.
Stickney was a man well-to-do, and
keene did not like to expose him.
Autumn came again, and upon count
ing up his flock, Mr.. Keene found eight
sheep missing. He made out bill in
due form to Thomas Stickney for the
eight sheep, and presented it. Stickne,
choked and stammered, but did not back
down. Like prudent man he paid the
bill and pocketed the receipt.
Another Spring time came, and Mr..
heenes sneep were again turned out.
Another Autumn came, and the farmer
again took an account OF his stock, and
this time fifteen sheep were missing. As
before he made out the bill to Thomas
Stickney for the whole number missing /;
but this time Tom objected.
at is too much of good thing" said
he. Fifteen sheep Why, bless your
soul, / hayn't had a fifth part of 'em."
Mr.. Keene was memorable.
"There is the BILL" said he, "and
have made it out in good faith. I have
made no fuss when my sheep have been
missing, because 1 deemed your credit
good and sufficient"
"Well," groaned Tom, with big gulp,
Z" 1 suppose l must pay; but" he added,
emphatically, "well close that account
from this time. You have given me too
much credit altogether-some other ras-
cal has been stealing on the strength Of
it."-PittSburg Chronicle.
