The "EUfant Terrible,

1t is not wise to do or say anything
to child under an injunction not to
tell. Here is story in point, which was
reported to me from the ladies at Fingask,
Perthsire, 1883. Highland family of
some dignity. but not much means, was to
receive visit from some English relations
| tor the first time. Great was the anxiety
and great the efforts to make things wear
respectable appearance before these as
sumedly fastidiOus strangers. The lady
had cOntriyed to get up pretty good din
ner, but either from an indulgent DISPOSE

wants, she allowed her son Bobby, little
him to the nursery. But little was she
aware OF Bobby's power of torture.
Bobby, who was dressed in a new Jacket
and pair OF buff cOlOred trOwsers, had pre-
vlousiy received strict injunctiOns to cit at
the table quietly, and on no account to join
In conversation. For little while he car
ried out these injunctions by sitting per-
fectly quiet till the last guest had been
heiped to soup, whereupon, during slight
lull in the general conversation, Bobby
quietly said
81 want some soup, mamma"
You can't be allowed to have any soup,
Bobby. You must not always be asking
for things"
"If YOU don't give me soma soup imme-
diatelv, III tell yon y

stead of sending Bobby out of the room.
quietly yielded to his demand Soup being
removed and fsh introduced, there was a
fresh demand.

forward: You can't get any fish. You must
sit quietly, and not trouble us 80 much"

gave him the fish.

pretty fully drawn to Bobby, about who In

opinion The father was irritated at the
incident.
Bobby, you must be quiet; you can have

Cooking as a High Art.

Mrs. Walter C. Lyman delivered at As
ISOLATION Hall, New York, on Tuesday. the
first of her second course of lectures. Her
subject was Digestion or How to Prepare
Food to Nourish the Body Best" Among
other things she said when, as Ruskin
says, we shall possesses the economy of our
great grandmothers, English thoroughness,
French art, and Arabian hospitality, we
shall understand the preparation of food.
Not until ladies will be watchful, careful
and studious over what appears on their
tables, will civilized people be well fed.
The ideal cook will prefer wild animals to
stalled, because their meet is more digest
ible; he will seldom prepare for table sailed
meat because it lacks porosity; he will
laugh at fried steak and call it vulgar be-
cause all the juice and much of the flavor
will have exuded; he will forbid veal for
the same reason that he would throw away
unripe fruit, and discourage the use of lamb
for analogous reasons. If wild hogs could
be obtained he would occasionally grace
the table with pork; but because swine
have been so long dOmesticated they have
become scrUfulous and therefore unfit for
food; he will never have Irish or Yankee
stews, because cosmopolitan living among
vegetables cooked together produces dis
cord in the stomach. If he served a refined
family he would prepare food artistically,
and select it with reference to its odors aud
tiavors, because a.pleased eye and agreeable
nasal sensations are appetizers; if his mas
ter were a student, he would give him an
allowance of fish perhaps once a day, and
oysters ed infnitptm, because oysters and
fish as brain builders stand first; if his mis-
tress thought little, she should have few
oysters, because her brain. not being ex-
hausted, an excess of phosphoric stimulus
that Of alcohol on hale, robust man.
Mrs. Lyman concluded by saying: For
hygienic reasons we should remain long at
meals. and discard from conversation any
thing weighty or profound, because the
stomach requires large amount of blood.
A five minutes nap after dinner, by allow
ing muscles and nerves to relax is desir-
able. Walking and violent exercise after
eating should be avoided.

Who Printed the First Bible ?

In the year li2o there was living in the
city OF HARLEM an old gentleman Who kept
the keys of the cathedral, and who used
after dinner. to walk in the famous wood
that up to this time is growing Just without
the city walls. One day, while walking
there, he found very smooth piece of beech
bark, on which-as he was a handy man
with his knife-he cut several letters so
plainly and neatly that after he returned
home he stamped them upon paper, and
gave the paper to his boy as "copy."
AFTER this, seeing that the thing had been
neatly done, the old geutleman-whose

ASSASSINATION" and names given; 1t was
signed with cuts of one foot shOd and one
foot bare. In the fall OF 1868, near the time
OF the general election he was chased out
OF Columbia by this same murderous clan
and forced to flee for his lite-forced to call
upon friends for protection. A band of
about twenty old Union men rallied to. his
call and kept guard a week at the residence
OF a TREND who was in the same danger

clded that Judge Crawford and his friend
should make their way through the woods

election, thereby being deprived OF their

meant death at the first move against them
This failure signed and sealed the Judges
death warrant, and laid law and Justice
PROSTATE in the dust in North Louisiana.
The Judge, if discouraged for time, soon
rallied, drawing and depending alone upon
the vast resources within himself, and be-
came as fearless and more hopeful than
ever, for he had found strong and willing

officers united against crime was ominous
