The New York Evening Mail, in
making reference to the efforts now in
progress in that city for closing all places
of amusement on the Sabbath day, saws:
There are but two ways in which our
Sundays can be rescued from a gradual
transformation into those Partisan type.
One is by the strict enforcement of the
laws on thestatute books, which are now
dead letters. The other is bydeveloping
the strong and conservative public senti-
ment that is behind these laws, and that
really compelled this enactment. How
decided and universal that sentiment is
among our best citizens, fall classes and
occupations, was strikingly shown blythe
signatures to the protests sent last week
to the Police Board. On that list we're
the names Of well-known bankers and
actors; lawyers and divines; merchants
and literary men; Protestants, Roman
Catholics, and men of no religious creed
whatever. The highest ability, the best
sense, the widest experience to be found
in this great city, were united In this tes-
hmonial, as would be the case were all of
our citizens Of like standingaskedto give
their views on the same subject.

HOW TO COOK BEEFSTEAK.

2
Some time since complete encyclo-
pedia of useful knowledge in human
form became an inmate of a family.
When this learned guest came among
them he was constituted as an oracle In
many cases, and was asked one morning
"Would he tell or show them a better
way to cook the steak for breakfast"
He took the thin, long-handled frying
pan from its nail, and putting it on the
stove heated it quite hot. In this he put
the pieces of steak previously pounded,
but to their surprise did not put parti-
Gle of butter in the fryingpan, and did
not salt the steak. He allowed the steak
to merely glaze over, and turning it sew
eral times In this manner until it was
done. -Four minutes were not employed
in the operation, but a jucier steak was
never eaten. It was, when done, laid on
the platter, previously warmed, and was
buttered and salted and set moment in
a hot oven. Allowing the steak to heat
but moment on each side, helped it to
retain all its sweet juices, and putting the
salt on at the last moment after it was on
the platter, drew out its juices.

RevOlvers VS.. stomach Pumps.

Yesterday, about dinner-time, Jep
Rice observed a seedy dead-beat slip
ping into his dining groom without regis
tering himself at the captains office. On
stepping into the hall he observed the
hungry patron lying in q generous sup
ply of first-class grub In the most ap-
proved style. Times being hard, Jep
could not stand the onslaught on his
bill Of fare without revenge, so he sent
for Mat Matson, who soon appeared and
stationed himself at the door.
After long siege at the table our ca
daverous D. B. requested a tooth-pick
and walked carelessly to the street door,
where he was politely stopped by Mat,
who asked him if he had dinner. On re-
plying that he had dined, he was march
/ ed to interview Jep.

''Yes."

WE CAN MAKE HOME HAPPY.

Though We may not change the cottge
For a mansion tall and grand,
Or exchange 4 little grass plat
For a b9undless stretch Of land
Yet there's something brighter, dearer,
Than the wealth we'd thus command
Though we have no means to purchase
Costly pictures rich and rare
Though we have no sIken hangings
For the walls 50 cold and bare
We can hang them DER with garlands,
For flowers bloom everywhere.
We can always make home cheerful,
If the right course we begin;
We can make the mmates happy
And their ;ruest blessings win;
It viii make ne small room brighter,
If we Is5 he sunshine N.
We can gather round the fireside
When the evening hours are long;
We can blend or hearts and voices
In q happy social song:
We can guide some erring brother,
Lead him from the path Of wrong.
We may i'll our homes with music,
And with sunshine brimming o'er,
If against all lark intruders
We VIII firmly close the door
Yet should evil shadows enter,
We should love each other more.
There are treasures for the lowly,
Which the grandest fail to find,
There's a chain Of sweet affection,
Bindingfriends Of kindred mind
We may reap the choicest blessings
From the poorest lot assigned.

The time Of the year has now
come when fires are to be re. .kindled.
Old cracked stoves will be brought
out suddenly and put up the first
cold snap. Unsafe and soot-filled
chimneys are crowded with two or
three stove pipes. The consequen-
ces to some body will be disastrous.
The house, store or shop will take
fire some day and burn up before
you are aware of it. And then
some one will find when too late,
they had no insurance. Be wise be-
fore the fire. Look to your stoves,
know they are whole. Examine
your stove pipes, clean your chin

therein are securely plastered up
