A Cholera Incident OF 1888.

The following Is an incident which oc-
Cured during the prevalence of cholera
in 1888, as narrated TO us a few days since
by friend:
Mrs. Williams, then as now, a resident
of Fleming county, was taken violently
i'll with cholera. The disease seemed TO
have run its usual short and terrible
course, and she was pronounced dead.
Hurried preparations for the funeral were
made, and the supposed corpse, dres sed
In the habiliments Of the grave, was
placed in the coffin, and the lid was being
fastened down, when feeble though dis
tinct rap from within startled and arrest
ed the attention of those present; and,
the coffin lid being removed, the fact was
family disclosed that Mrs. w. was still
living. Proper restoratives were at once
procured and applied, and Mrs. w. recov-
cred and still lives, hale and hearty for
one of her age.
Our informant has often heard the old
lady speak of the occurrence, and of the
feeling she experimentation from the
time she first discovered that the attend
ants regarded her as dead, she strove TO
give some sign Of life to avert live burial,
and being wholly unable, when the fixing
of the nails in her coffin nerved her to
more determined, last, desperate effort,
which, happily, resulted as we have
ated.-Cdriisis Ky Mercury.

American Teachers in Europe.

The party of teachers that left New
York City, under the auspices of Cook.
the excursion manager, are being received
with every evidence of kindly feeling
wherever they go. They have visited Scot
hand, and have lately been received at
Derby, England. The Springfield Repab-
lican says: Altogether, the teachers
are being made good deal of by our
British cousins, which is, no DOUBT. all
the more grateful to their modest hearts
on account of its entire unexpectedness.
They have been toted about, through the
courtesy OF railway companies, in special
trains of saloon coaches, and after their
reception at Derby, we read of their being
the guests for day of the Earl OF Shrews-
bury and Talbot at Alton Towers. But
England Is to be more thoroughly done
on the return Of the excursionists from
the continent, where, by this time, they
must have got well along on their travels.
Paris and Vienna are the two principal
objective points, but some will extend the
journey to Rome; Others will visit Swift
zerland, the Rhine, and Belgium. A few
do not intend to return with the party,
but purpose remaining a year or two IN
England, or on the continent, to improve
themselves i'm various branches of knowl-
edge and i'm languages. so as to make
themselves better qualified for their WORK
at home."

The pursuit of the favorite pastime of
croquet has inspired the following reflec-
ton from the Danbury Neics man: "Cro-
quet Is not designed for the development
OF muscle, but merely for the enjoyment
OF recreation. When man puts the pre-
p0nderance OF his strength In the blow.
he falls TO progress In the game, and not
only that, but he loses so much OF the en-
joyment, and merely expends strength
that may be required to take him off the
premises. An accurate eye for measuring
distances and defining directions Is about
all the capital required In a safe and nour-
ishing game Of croquet. Considering
whatan excellent citizen he Is in all re-
spects, we are led to regret that Mr.. Hen
messy did not possess these facts previous
10 last Monday evening. On that occa-
sion he played his first game. There was
nice party of them on Mr.. Warford's
lawn. and several elderly ladies', men,
bers of the Khidghluv Mission Society.
were seated on the stoop, having had a
very enjoyable tea. Mr.. Hennessy waited
expectantly for his turn at the game. at
the same time swinging his right arm and
slapping his chest TO warm up his mus
Gle. When his turn did come he deter
mined he would surprise the congrega-
ton. And he did. He looked at the
other players patronizingly, and at the
elderly ladies affectionately, then he
raised the mallet. and carefully measured
the distance, and took in all the
bearings between him and the ball.
Then he swung 1t around his head once
or twice. and the next instant it swung
through the air like a flash of lightning,
and descending square and accurately to
the aim, lifted that ball into the air, and
drove 1t full against the shin Of the amis-
BILE president of the Khidghluv Mission.
who Immediately rolled off the stoop. and
went kicking and screaming into Michi-
gan rose-bush. The awful conclusion of
the blow broke the head short off from
the handle of the mallet, and that dis
tressing article contributed some new and
startling phases 70 the disaster. After
making several unsuccessful lunges at the
players. whose nimbeness alone saved
them, 1t stopped across Mr.. Warford's
nose, taking OF some two dollars worth
of skin, anu, flying upward, came down
With unexpected force upon the crown of
the vice-president of the Khidghluvs, who
was making herself hoarse in behalf of
her unfortunate superior, and brought
her jaws together with such force as to
nearly deprive her Of one-third of her
tongue. The unfortunate Mr.. Hennessy
appeared to be the only one to retain his
presence of mind. He buttoned the mall
let-handle under his coat, and threw his
hat into the street ; and then, watching
his opportunity, dashed in and caught one
OF the presidents struggling legs, and
Immediately pulled her cut of the rose
bush, and on to the walk. Then he put
three of the balls in his pockets, slung his
watch on the pear tree, and went home,
smiling in the most imbecile manner in
describable.

Mexican Dishes.

First OF all and best Of all was the
chocolate brought to us soon after we
landed, by a barefooted Mexican boy,
with "pan de huevas Literally. ''eg1-
bread"), a sweet light cake. The choco-
late is thick yet light, with a head of de-
licious brown foam, which melts in the
mouth as you drink it. Then, at the
midday meal, were theinevitable ''frjoles"
a small black bean, which forms the chief
food OF the lower orders throughout
Mexico, and without which, under one
form or another, no meal Is considered
perfect. With them appeared the other
made Of maize. They are made by boil
ing the maize, and then rubbing It into
fine paste on lava stand called "metate."
When the paste Is perfectly smooth, a
piece is taken In the two hands, and patted
and slapped till 1t Is as thin as half a
crown, the size Of a breakfast plate, and
about as tough as an ordinary sheepskin.
Ii is then baked for moment on grid
die and served hot but quite limp. IL Is
used as a spoon and fork to eat the
frijoles; thus you tear off corner, and
divide 1t In two, doubling up one half as a
receptacle for the beans, which yeu push
In with the other bit, and eat spoon and
all together. A common joke takes its
rise from this, .'that the Mexicans are so
proud and so rich that they never use the
same spoon twice." In Mexico the day
begins early, with light meal shout Q
A. NJ, called "desayuno," when you take
a cup Of chocolate and "pan'dulce." Then
about IL comes "almuerzo" (breakfast), a
heavy meal, with several courses of meat.
And about 5P.M NJ. Is "la colnida" (din-
ner), a lengthy proceeding, with endless
courses OF meat, which are all served
alone, excepting the ''punchero," boiled
beef, with y mixture Of every imaginable
vegetable I'm the same dish; and dinner
ends with small cups of excellent cafe noir.

Tomato Preserves the round
yellow variety as soon as ripe, scald and

them stand over night. Take the toma-
toes out of the sugar and boil the sirup,
removing the scum. Put In the tomatoes

remove the fruit again, and boil until the
sirup thickens. On cooling put the fruit

add fsw slices Of lemon to each Jar, and
you will have something to please the
taste Of the most fastidious.

Loving and Being Loved.

| To love. it is at first thought suggestive
of familiar word once met with in learn
ing the conjugation of the verb years ago
in our English grammars, but it is not in
this regard that [ purposes inviting your
attention, but rather to refer to its
direct application to individuals
Love is an attribute of the human
heart that is difficult to define. 1t is an
affection excited by that which delights
or commands admiration. It is the
source of man s greatest happiness and joy
ano the foundation upon which he builds
his brightest hopes, and happiest expec-
tations. 1t is his greatest incentive to
labor, and to acquire an honorable fame
1t creates within his being the most
unsel6sh thoughts and feeling of his soul.
1t has been said that love is "the re-
duction Of the universe to single being,
the expansion ola single being even unto
God" The acts and impulses of some
young hearts and minds" would seem
to partially establish the truth of this
somewhat extravagant assertion, though
generally love dose not become so insen
sible. or utterly oblivions to the imperfec
tons of its idol as to Ignore every per-
sonal defect. nor does it usually exalt its
object to divinity, but it renders some
very sensible sonls happy, and fills the
world they live in with sunshine and glad
ness.
No true woman is ashamed of her af-
fections, though at times demonstrative
and tender, she is seldom fooiishly so, she
fully -comprehends what is right and pro-
per, and seldom oversteps the limits of
proprlety and common sense, nor will she
by acts or words lead her lover to believe
that she loves him when she does not.
Every sincere affection of the heart is
founded first upon self-respect The
basis of man s domestic peace is faith in
woman's constancy, truthfulnesa and per.
feet purity.

fes man against temptation and keeps
