I. Let your colt be domesticated and
live with you from his tenderest age,
and when horse he will be simple,
docile, faithful, and Injured to hardship
and fatigue.
ii. Do not beat your horses, nor speak
to them in a loud tone of voice; do not
get angry with them, but kindly reprove
their faults they will do better there
after, for they understand the language
of man and its meaning.
III. If you have long days journey
before you, spare your horse at the start ;
let him frequently walk to recover his
wind. Continue this until he has
sweated and dried three times, and you
may ask of him whatever you please,
he will not leave you in difficulty.
". Observe your horse when he is
drinking at o brook. If in bringing
down his head he remains square, with
out bending his limbs, he possesses
sterling qualities, and all parts of his
body are built symmetrically.

Meat Gravy.

In roasting beef, if it is to be rare,
allow 10 minutes cooking for every
pound of beef; when done, place it on
a heated dish. In carving, the juice
will run out and this is considered by
many as the choicest gravy. However
a gravy should be made and your guest
given his choice. After removing the
beef place the pan on the range, add a
teacupful of boiling water; boil up ponce
do not thicken; send to the table in a
sauce boat. Veal when roasting needs
basting frequently-at first with saltand
water, afterwards with its gravy; allow
15or2O minutes cooking for every pound;
remove the veal when done; place the
pan on the range, and thicken the
gravy with teaspoonful of flour, first
moistened with little water to prevent
Jumps; boil up once and pour into a
gravy boat. Mutton or lamb gravy is
made in the same way. Pork gravy is
thickened and improved by adding the
Juice OF a lemon.

Green Tomato Pickle.

Gather the tomatoes, wash and drain
dry, stick each tomato four or five times
with large straw, put in a stone jar
and lay grape leaves over them, and
weigh down then make a strong brine
and pour over; when needed soak "a
hours in fresh water; to gallon of
vinegar add one tablespoonful each of
cloves, black pepper, allspice and mus
tard, tied up in thin muslin bag; boil
the vinegar with the spices in it, then
pour over the tomatoes while hot; they
will keep good two or three years in
brine

GOING BACK ON HIMSELF

We find the following item published
by authority of Judge Lewis in the
evening paper of Saturday last:
SO far from the decision Of Judge
Lewis on the street grades and city
charter of Seattle legally sxempting
property owners from taxation. as many
have supposed. the reverse is the case.
and not . few Of those interested IN the
grades have come 20 that COM fusion.
The Judge holds and advises that the
property will have to pay for the i'm
provemeut, that there is no escape from
il. aud the best way TO do is for the
guilty TO settle the bill without more
ado"
In other words, Lewis says that his
decision, declaring cur City Charter Q
nulli,y and that no legal effect can
be given TO the ordinances Of this city
because the Legislature had no author
i.y to incorporate town or city. or to
confer any power upon the council OF
any town or city 10 levy taxes therein 1t
50 incorporated, means the opposite oil
what it IBIS decisionl plainly said, and
that the City of Seattle after oil was
Only incorporated and that its ordinan-
ces are of binding force and effect, and
that in consequence thereof there is no
escape from the payment Of taxes levied
BY its City Council. This is good
thing; it's just what he ought to have
said when rendering his opinion in the
case of the City Is Yssler. but he didn't;
the judgment in that case WAS that
the city charter was and is invalid.
There Is nothing in law. however, to
have warranted Lewis in arriving 1t
such conclusions Is he did in that case;
and We are ut loss to account for
them, unless upon the theory that when
doing SO, while one Of his eyes was
probably directed towards the case be-
fore him. the othsr-the unmanagesble
one-turned itself in the direction OF
the east half of the Maynard claim. and
possibly toward chance for specula-
ton in city scrip. Probably he couldn't
help it. His obliquity Of vision 20
doubt led to perversion of judgment.
But. he sees now that he put his foot in
it; that his opinion in that case-asids
from having the effect Of injuring the
credit of the city for the tune being
is not worth the paper it is written upon;
and that owing to it, and ether unbaar-
able acts of his. he has t,comc odious
among the people to such al extent
that vigorous measures are no~ being
taken for his removal
Hence. those unsolicited suggestions
to tax payers-thsr rushing into print
these disclaimers-tb going back on
himself
The aptness Of the following doggerel
suggests itself in this connection:
There is 'jedge' in Seattle.
And he is wondrous wise:
He jumped into bramble bush.
And scratched out both his eyes.
And when he found his eyes were out,
He. cunningest OF men.
Jumped into another bush,
To scratch them in again"
