Mrs. DUNIwAY AS A CONTRIBUTOR
In this number of the Journal we
publish a portrait and Biographical
sketch Of Mrs. Abigail Scott Duniway,
the author of David and Anna Mat
son." which is just published as an
nounced on another page. There is not
doubt but that this book will have a
wide circulation during the coming two
months. The strong pictures and Incl
dents of domestic life as therein por-
trayed will touch the heart of every
reader. We are pleased to announce
that we have secured the services of
Mrs. Duniway for the writing of series
of articles for the Journal for the COM
ing year, 1877. Our readers and friends
on the Pacific coast, where Mrs. Duni-
way is so well and favorably known,
will be glad to hear this, and we shall
expect from among them a large addi-
tiOn to our list of subscribers. The gen.
eral merits of the Journal should war
rant this, and the additional attraction
of this series of articles will doubtless
insure meteorological Journal.

The AMERICAN NEWSPAPER DIRECTORY is an
epitome of newspaper history. 1t is also re-
garded an official register of cIrculatiOns.
This feature requires the closest scrutiny to
prevent it from leading to abuses. The plan
adopted by the publishers of the DIRECTORY to
secure correct and trustworthy reports is rigid
in its requirements, and is adhered to with
impartiality. Successful publishers, who have
something to gain by comparison, are gener-
ally prompt, not only to send reports in con-
formity, but give Messrs. Geo. P. Rowell & Co.
such information as enables them to weed out
unsubstantiated statements of pretenders in
journalism. The popularity of the book, and
the general confidence in its accuracy and good
faith, are attested by the immense body of ad-
vertisements it receives. 426

Going Away From Home.

Nothing hurts a boy more than to be
pushed ont of a tender and loving home
circle at an early age. He must love
somewhere; and the chances are that If
he be not loved, and allowed to love, at
home, he will not love too wisely away
from it. 1t is a natural thing for youth
and age to love one another. Let US not
oppose nature. Encourage rather than
homes Win and deserve the confidence
of your children. Do not have a child
of yours go outside of your home sane
tnary to speak to strangers about his
dearest and most precious interests, be-
cause he fears that indifference If not
rejection will meet his desire to nnbosom
himself in the paternal heart.
No possible influence from outside,
not the Sunday school even, not the
church, can take the place of boys
own father, or of a girls own mother, at
the age when the boy and girl are ap-
preaching manhood and womanhood.-
Too often they are deserted of their
parents jusa at this age. There are few
sights more beautiful than to see parents
standing by their children, in their
growing years, in warm, tender affection,
accompanied and exhibited by outward
manifestations of the same.-[Sunday-
School Times.

A Good Story.

The following anecdote is related of
Mr.. Sheaf, a grocer of Portsmouth, N.
H.: It appears that a man had purchas-
ed some wool of him, which had been
weighed and paid for, and Mr.. Shea &
had gone to the desk to get change for a
note. Happening to turn his head while
there, he saw in a glass which hung SO
as to reflect the shop, a stout arm reach
up and take from n shelf heavy white
oak cheese. Instead of appearing sud
denly and rebuking him for the theft, as
another would and thereby losing the
customer for ever, the crafty old gentle
man gave the thief his change as II
nothing had happened and then under
pretence of lifting his bag to lay il on
his horse for him, took hold of it and
exclaimed:
"Why, bless me. must have reckon
ed the weight wrong"
"Oh, no." said the other, "you may he
rure you have not, for counted with
you."
"Well, well, we won't dispute the mat.
ter, il is easily tried" said Mr.. 8. There
said he, 81 told you SOL knew ] wal
right made a mistake nearly twenty
pounds; however, If yon don't want tbs
whole you needn't have it'll tax,
part of il out"
"No, no." said the other, staying th'
hands of Mr. T., on their way to th'
strings Of the bag. "I guess I'll take tn,
whole;" and this he did, paying for dis
honesty by receiving the skim mill
cheese at the rate of forty -four cents
pound, the price of wool.

Condensed Beer.

Mr.. Lockwood describes. in the Jour

solid or condensed beer. Beer il taken
at its best condition, its alcohol is sepa-
rated and saved by method of gentle
distillation IN Udcuo and the residue is
condensed in a vacuum pan, like milk.
When finished it is enclosed in hermeti-
cally sealed packages, the alcohol frat
being added to it again. and acting as
preventative. The fermentation which
was present in the beer when it was ta-
ken is suspended by the heating, and
the condensed beer remains sound in this
condition, apparently for any length of
time, as some exists that has now been
kept for nearly two years. When re-
made by adding water, it is not wort.
but real beer, having all its favor and
alcoholic strength, and lacking only
effervescence, which can be quickly i'm
parted by reviving the suspended fer
mentation for short time in order to
develop sufficient carbonic acid gas to
give il the required bfiskness; or Il is

Breakfast at Midnight.

The Bennington (Vt) Banner has
this amusing story: "The family of one
of our industrious citizens was rather
earlier astir than the circumstances
wonld require one night last week.
When the clock was wound up, at 9 o.
clock in the evning. the spring was
frightened too much. and the time piece
stopped abont an hour later, when the
the family retired. Friend C.'s mind
was unusually full of thought on the
morrow's business, and so the light of
moon, as its rays came through the thin
clouds without showing her fair face,
induced him to shont to the hired man
to arise and kindle fire, thinking il was
near day. The fire was soon burning
briskly; the family all astir; break fast
on the table; repast over, all began to
wonder why more light did not come
over the earth. The wonder and aston
ishment continued unabated for an hour
or more longer, and behold twas darker
than ever. The night being extremely
cold no one cared to go and arouse the
neighborood to ascertain the time, but
finally the host thought it advisable to
do 30. Neighbor - was soon made to
answer the summons, and responded to
the interroRative by saying, Why, Sir,
it's only n little after midnight Friend
c. marched back to the house and his
family soon was in the arms of Morphe-
u.s. again and continued until morning ,
