after one or two decisive victories peace

boiled carrots, when properly prepared,
form an excellent substitute for eggs in
pudding. They must, for this purpose,
be boiled and mashed, and passed
through o corse cloth or hair sieve
strainer Tho pulp is then introduced
among the other ingredients of the pud-
ding, to the total omission of eggs. A
pudding made up in this way is much
lighter than where eggs are used, and
is much more palatable. On the prin-

the prudent housewives attention.

Happy is the man who is out of debt,
let his property be ever SO small. The
evils of debt have been most formida-
bly, illustrated during the prevailing
stringency of the hard times. Many. a
man who had money enough to make
him comfortable has lost every dollar by
having it invested in property on which
he had given mortgage which he has
been unable to carry. No matter how
much man is worth, if he is heavily
in debt, his life is troubled. Let every
young man lay down the rule, and stick
to it, never run in debt.

when she commenced taking the Syrup, the di-
gestive functions improved, and she steadily
gained strength and vivacity; and now, after
taking two bottles, she is restored to good state

OPIUM EArING.-A melancholy case
of the effects of opium taking in Brook
lyn, n. Y, is thus described by = cor
respondent A beautiful woman and q
reigning belle, some years ago in that
city, was prostrated with a prolonged
and overwhelmingly painful sickness, to
alleviate the sufferings of which the
physicians in attendance prescribed
laudanum, which was taken with the re-
suit of fixing the habit upon the patient.
This habit has dragged her down into
such depths of physical and moral de-
generacy as would be almost incredible
If related. The appetite has become so
ravenous that it has demanded the
strongest tobacco smoked in the rankest
Of pipes, in addition to the immense
quantities of laudanum which are taken.
If any one could see this once beautiful
woman, now a sallow, wrinkled, prema-
turely aged hag, bent over, and in the
act Of smoking her vile pipe, and know
of the absolute loss of all self-respect
and total collapse of the moral sense IN
her, it would add much force to the con-
cluding advice of your reporter, don't: "
It will scarcely be believed when it is
stated that she drinks nearly five quarts
of laudanum every month yet such Is
the fact

WHAT MEN NEED Wives FoR.-It is
not to sweep the house, and make the
bed, and darn the socks, and cook the
meals, chiefly that man wants wife.
If this is all he needs, hired help can
do it cheaper than wife, If this is all ,
when a young man calls to see young
lady, send him into the pantry to taste
the bread and cakes she has made; send
him to inspect the needle-work and bed
making; or put broom into her hands
and send HIM to witness its use. Such
things are important, and the wise
young man viii quietly look after them.
But what q true man most wants of a
true wife is her companionship, sympa-
thy, courage and love. The way of life
has many dreary places in it, and man
needs companion to go with him. A
man is sometimes overtaken with mis-
fortune; he meets with failure and de-
feat, trials and temptations beset him,
and he needs one to stand by and SYM
pathize. He has some stern battles to
fight with poverty, with enemies and
with sin; and he needs q woman that,
while he puts his arms around her and
feels that he has something to fight for,
will help him fight; that will put her
lips to, his ears and whisper words OF
council, and her hands to his heart and
impart new inspiration. All through
life, through storm and through sun
shine, conflict and victory, through ad-
verse and favoring winds, man needs a
woman's love. The heart yearns for it.
A sisters or a mothers love will hardly
supply the need.

yourself in the place of those persons at Ephe-

any more than we will hear the man who rid-
