The Vienna Bakery.

The new Vienna bakery in New York is gaining large share of the popularity which was obtained by the present estah- lishment on the centennial exhibition grounds. Although opened but recently 1t is doing an extensive business, especially in filling orders for bread etc., to be deliv- cred at private houses.
 Adjoining the neat eating room is @ read ing room, where American newspapers and the principal French and German journals are kept on file. In the basement are the bakery, kitchen, coffee room, ice-cream loom, store rooms, etc. The ovens ID the bakery are like the old fashioned brick ovens which were used before the introduc- ton ot stoves and ranges, but on a much larger scale. There are six of these, each twelve feet long and at the broadest part nine feet wide, the shape being oval. A roaring fire of wood is made in one of these ovens. and kept up till three feet of solid masonry are heated through. The ashes are then carefully swept out, and the bread IS baked on the hot tiles which form the oven floor. Steam pipes pass through these ovens. but these are heated only when the baking is in progress, m order to maintain an even temperature.
 It is necessary to make new fire in an oven once or twice in three days according to the amount of baking required. Eff teen bakers are employed night and day, who relieve each other in gangs of five. Sleeping rooms for ther use have beer l fitted up under the sidewalk.
 The delicious coffee crowned With whin ped cream, which was familiar to centen Dial visitors, is made in the following man. ner: The coffee, mixture of Java anc Mocha. is ground very fine and placed upor piston perforated like 8 calendar, whict IS covered with felt, and fits tightly into | metal cylinder, large enough to hold gal lon. Boiling water is then poured upon it and after this has remained long enough t. extract all the strength from the coffee, tn, piston is worked upward from the bottom of the cylinder by means of a powerful screw attachment. This creates vacuum under the piston, and the coffee liquid i stantly sucked through the perforation into the space beneath, while all tn, grounds ramain upon the felt covering When the bakery at the Centennial Exhibi tion was in operation, six thousand cups O coffee were sometimes made by this pro cess in a single daY.-Neao Fork Post.

that was distracted by your pretty ways
and devices it was I. You know all
this very we'll, and can tell me whether
| had better 80 or not Now tell me,
shall stay ?'
You might have knocked me down
with feather when / saw Mime put
her hand out timidly to the school-mas-
ter, and he turn pale and catch it in
both his own.
"Of course not" / broke in, for | was
near distracted by the way things were
going. " If you're an honorable man.,
and have got any sense left, and an eye in
your head, you'd see that my niece is as
good as engaged to Sam Riley"
Sam Riley p said Mime, as scornful
as If poor Sam was toad or something,
and holding on to the school-master's
horny hands as if she was drowning.
Like enough they'll beat her some day,
and if SO she'll like him all the better
for it, for before I'd got out of the room
[ heard her tell him she'd teach any
way that suited him best; and my only
hope is that he's got little money laid
by, for he said he didn't intend she
should teach at ALL But, dear! dear :!
when [ heard the crack of Sam Riley s
whip outside, and knew the evening
stage was in, and poor Sam not knowing
what was in store for him, [ had to go
up stairs and have cry all to myself
And all | can say is, if Mime marries
the schOol-master, it's a mighty queer
courtship.-Ha'per's Weekly.

: WHAT ONE GIRL THINKS y

Are all men deceitful? you ask me;
hope. and think not my dear.
/ guess there's a true heart in some one
But, love, don't you wish he'd appear?
Perhaps in this world there is some one
Though that one | never may see
Who'd prove, in the time of temptation
How noble true man could be-
Yes, love, must really confess it,
Most men are deceivers at best;
And, Judging by present and past, dear,
There little that's true in the rest.
All, love, here aCe are, young and happy,
With hearts free from fetter and care
Small we yield them. now pure in affection,
To break or grow cold in mems snares.
Shall we yield them to fashion or beauty,
To money. TO fame or to pride:
Don't we wish something better than wisdom
In one who will call us his bride:
Nay. love neither beauty nor riches,
true noble girl would ensnare;
We look for pure deep affection,
And courage to do and to dare
We look for heart true and manly,
We choose on the very best plan;
We choose not the outward appearance,
We choose of all others-a man.
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1877-08-29

IDLENEss, as has been truly said, is
the mother Of crime; and it is the true
road to poverty. We are all SO consti-
tuted that our minds must be employed.
Persons brought up in idleness and lux
ury, often acquire bad habits which
they never throw off through life and
which aid IN premature death. The
associations in life are various, and all
ought to be employed in some useful
calling, and to faithfully discharge that
calling
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1877-08-29

Almost all men are over-anxious. No
sooner do they enter the world, than
they lose that taste for natural and SIM
pie pleasures SO remarkable in early life.
Every hour do they ask themselves what
progress they have made in the pursuit
Of wealth or honor; and on they go as
their fathers went before them, till, weary
and sick at heart, they look back with
a sigh of regret to the golden times of
their childhood.

WHEN there is no recreation or bust
ness for thee abroad, thou mayest then

Above all, the Family Newspaper should be perfectly pure, and free from any contaminating infiu- encessin it's reading matter or in its advertise ments. Too much attention cannot be paid to this feature, when the press is flooding the country with so much that is vile and perni- cious. To crown all, the Fanily NecspGper should be untrammelled by any affiliation with sect or party, and should be free to give all the good news from and about all the world.

 tic medicine that can be employed cleans ing the stomach and bowels, and even the blood. In small doses of one. pill a day, they stimulate the digestive organs and promote vigorous health.
 AYERS PILLS have been known for more than quarter of a century, and have obtained worldwide reputation for their virtues. They correct diseased action in the several assimilative organs of the body, and are so composed that obstruc- tiOns within their range can rarely with .a. stand or. evade them. Not only do they $ cure the everyday complaints of every body, but also formidable and dangerous diseases that have baffled the best of human skill. While they produce power fii effects, they are, at the same time, the safest and best physic for children. By their aperient action they gripe much less than the common Nlrgatives,- and never give pain when the bowels are not infamed. They reach the vital fountains of the blood, and strengthen the system by freeing it from the clements of weakness. Adapted to all ages and conditions in all climates, containing neither calomel nor any deleterious drug these Pills may be taken with safety by anybody. Their sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh, and makes them pleasant to take; while being purely vegetable, no harm can arise. from their use in any quantity. -a xga <-s fPREPARED BYs
