The Hon, Edwards Pierrepont has won
the hearts of the British aristocracy by his
respectful and deferential demeanor when
in their presence. He has earned the re
gard of British politicians by assuring
them that in intellectual ability and per-
sonal integrity they are vastly superior to
the statesmen whom he left behind him in
America. He has captured the afft c.ion
of the British fish dealers by compliment
ing them upon their culture and refne-
ment of manner. He has gracefully at
tested his own love for dear old British
names by sending his son to a certain
school because it happened to be taught
by the rector of Holme- Pierrepont. 1t
now remains for the Hon Edwards
Pierscpont to congratulate the Lancashire
coal miners on their habits of cleanliness,
and the inmates Of Newgate on their high
standard of morality Having done this,

A Powerful Teacher.

On one of the islands off the coast OF
Maine is q gigantic schoolmistress, seven
feet high, weighing 300 pounds, strong
in proportion and very handsome. Once
she was sent to reduce to order q school
of savage young men, who thrashed
their teachers and turned them out. Her
advent was enough to make them meek
IS lambs, all save one young man of 81,
handsome and curly-haired, and who
regarded himself as aprivileged charac-
ter. He began to cut up one day before
the girls, whereupon, in the twinkling
of an eye, the handsome giantess bowed
him across her knee and spanked him
with her ruler. The boys laughed, the
girls Uttered, and that was the end of
that young mans pranks.-San Fran

The Art Of Cooking.

What the masses wish is not the gift
for preparing fancy dishes for desserts
but the culture and genius required for
SO cooking plain food that it shall yield
its highest degree of palatable nourish-
ment and best promote digestion.
What men and women cooks need to
know is how to cook potatoes, Irish
and sweet), how to broil steak, how
to roast piece of beef, how to boil fresh
or corned beef, how to broil pork-for
it Tor any other kind of meat) should
never be fried-how to make bread, and
how to make good coffee. For direc-
tions for making cakes and buildings the
housekeeper resorts to the library of
cook-books, but scorns to 60 to the ne
elected volumes to learn how to make a
pot of good coffee. The hotel man who
gives his customers good steaks and
good roasts, good bread and good cof-
fee acquires reputation throughout the
country and is on the road to fortune!
The wife of the poor man needs to
know how to make the most and the
best Of her soup-bone, or bit of beef, or
potatoes, or onions, or ;squashes, or the
chicken which comes occasionally to
her table, SO that, when her husband
comes home at noon from work, he may
not only fill his stomach, but have the
keen relish and enjoyment which God
Almighty intended every man, and
woman should have in eating.
Most Of all should young women
young lGdies-learn the art of cooking.
Those out of work, by learning to cook
well and do it neatly and economically,
could get honorable and profitable en-
ployment, and occupy high place in q
household. Herein is an opening for
young women, worthy of their atten-
ton. Let the Lost Art be re-discovered
and utilized. Republican.
