HOME CooKING.-Half of our country
women, who are in chronic misery about their
cooks, never stop to consider that principal
cause of their difficulties is their own igno-
rance of cooking. There exists not in crea-
tion more perfectly useless thing than the
fashionable young lady, and the full force Of
this fact probably only dawns upon her when
she is married. What contrast does she
present to those notable housewives who were
common enough in this country hundred
years ago? We have not the least desire to
see ladies, whose means enable them to keep
several servants, occupying themselves chiefly
with domestic details but, on the other hand,
we would have every girl thoroughly initiated
in their mysteries. Even in old countries,
where efficient servants are procured with
comparative ease, households are rarely we'll
managed where the lady Of the house is igno-
rant Of housewifery duties; while the most Of
us know by experience what her ignorance
entails. To know how dinner should be
cooked, it is not necessary to cook one. There
are thousands of men who never handled a
saucepan or spit who can tell exactly why a
dish is not quite light.
If, instead of thrusting cooking.book into
raw servant girls hand, and expecting her,
with its assistance to send up dinner, ladies
were to sit down and explain exactly how the
thing should be done, and praise and blame
with discretion the efforts of their handmade
ems, many man would have far better
table, and persons of moderate means would
be able to entertain couple of friends with
decently cooked dinner at home, instead of
going to great expense by having the neces-
sary articles from restaurant There would
be far less trouble about servants among US if
their mistresses showed kindly personal in
terest in their welfare. o.

SHOW THYSELF A MAN.

Now, there are two courses, either of which
you can take. , One is to say: 81 am not
living nor dressing SO we'll as my companions,
and l must have fine clothes and better fare. u
The other is to say with stern manliness: 81
have come here to make my way and honesty
and simplicity require that / should not live
any higher than myself can earn the means
ofliving. I will be no mans pauper or ben
efciary. I will make what take; and what
I make and take shall support me-"
The discipline which you get from the lat
ter course Of selfdenial is better than going to
college Many man Graded in learning
gets no discipline, but a young man who hav-
ing been reared and trained in self-indul-
gence, leaves his fathers house and coues to
the city and says: II will be beholden to no
man. can afford to live as plain as any
man, both in regard to diet and clothes, if it
is necessary to my manhood, and will not
have anything I cannot fairly earn. I will
be independent and establish myself" Such
young man gets discipline which is worth
a university education. By forming that
purpose, and adhering to it, he is educating
himself in the very elements Of manhood. He
is making man of himself.
Do you suppose men think less Of you be-
cause you dress plainly? Fools may, but
men do not. Do you think your chances of
life are less because you feel ashamed to show
a man where your room is, and where you
sleep? Why, many a man has slept in a
barn who was better than many another who
slept in mansions and palaces. A man ought
to be ashamed to say: II am poor, and can
not do so and So" It is the curse of Ameri-
ca, since there are no orders of nobility here,
that men are ashamed to admit that they are
poor The young man defends himself and
says: "I am not so poor as you take me to
be-" Even some sensible people yield to the
temptation of the devil, and are ashamed to
acknowledge that they work.

PRAY WITHOUT CEAs1SG.-Fill up the
void spaces of your time with meditation and
prayer.
They are the safest who are most in their
closets; who pray, not to be seen of men, but
to be heard Of God.
Whatever you want, 60 to God by faith
and prayer, in the name of Christ, and never
think his delays are denials.
They that spend their days in faith and
prayer, shall end their days in peace and
comfort.

GoD's Work GOES OS.-It is not optional
with you, my friend, whether you shall live
on a redeemed earth, and in times on which
the ends of the age are come it is onl ly op-
tional with you how you shall live here. 1t
cannot be with you as if your Saviour had
not sancti6ed the world with his feet, and
sweetened its air with his charity, and judged
it by his cross. These supernatural facts are
part of the estate you occupy. Neither
your ingratitude nor caprice can root them
out, or clear you of the accountability they
bind upon you. Your Indifference may blind
your eyes or paralyze your limbs; it does not
Slide you out of the range of the mediatorial
ministry, or of the reckoning that must follow
it. In any case, therefore, the scales Of the
choice do not hang evenly balanced. Your
right decision is already weighted with the
coming of the Son of Man. The way Of life
has his light upon it. Choose you this day
whether you will serve, in joy, the Master of
the house, or turn your back upon it and
upon him! Ifyou have wandered some dis
tance away, turn you, for your place is kept
for you, and you are yet within the borders
of the kings country! If you have there
fallen into slumber of unconcern, awake and
arise, and Christ shall give you light
