THE SECOND MRS. LUTTRELL.

"'THINGs begin to look lively over to
Luttrells. Such tearing up as there is
in that house, nobody in Ashcomb ever
saw before"
"You don't say" calculated Mrs.
Jones, gathering up the pea-pods in
more compact heap, and making room
for her neighbor by her side.
"Sit down, Mrs. Raynor; sit down, do,
and let's hear all about it, For one, l
am glad if old Luttrell has finally got his
match"
Neighbor Raynor seated herself on the
doorstep and, pushing back her sun
bonnet, gave vent to a ringing laugh.
81 tell you, Sarah Jones, Mrs. Luttrell
is enough for dozen like him. | never
enjoyed anything more in my life than
did Luttrells trouble this morning. 1t
seems that his wife had sold a fat pig to
the butcher, and taken note. The note
finally became due a day or so ago, and
Luttrell offered to get the money for her,
To this she agreed, and her liege lord not
only got the money, but spent the bigger
half of it before he got home. l hap

asked him for the money in my presence

A NEW and fashionable diversion is be-
coming popular in Baltimore among
young ladies and gentlemen fond of
horseback riding. 1t is called 81 Hare
and Hounds" and is now played every
Saturday. A young gentleman and
young lady, well mounted, are chosen to
represent the hares, and all the rest play
the hounds. The brace of hares are
given fifteen minutes start, and have
sschels of white paper cut in small
pieces, with which they are expected to
mark their course The ride is some
times five miles and back, by various
roads and lanes, and the first couple that
overtakes the hares have the privilege
of playing that part in the next per

and especially of the school, is discussed
at some length, and the paper closes
thus:
zone might go on through the long
range of incidental arguments-such as
lighted streets, well-kept sidewalks,
winter snow-plows, and good drainage,
and wholesome pride in a tidy, cozy
village, until even the most close-hsted
of all our class would confess that the
extra cost would bring full value in re-
turn, and until he would recognize the
fact that the attractions of such home
as the village would make possible, would
be likely to insure his being succeeded
in his wholesome trade by the brightest
and best of his sons-a result that would
surely be worth more than all it would
cost.
"But my purpose has been only TO
suggest a scheme which seems 10 me en-
tirely, even though remotely, prac-
ticable, and in which l hope for the
sympathy and help Of the country-bound

show any perceptible effect.

taking care that the shoppers and covers
have their due attention. To make assur
ance doubly sure, it is we'll to put
soda or ammonia into the jars or bottles,
hill up with water and let them stand an
hour, putting the shoppers or covers to
soak in the same way. Then pour out
and scald nicely, wipe dry and set i'll sun

VERY pretty mats, square or circular,

THE difficult problem of curing smoky
chimneys appears tohave been solved by
Mr.. Henry Colford. Numerous forms of
revolving apparatus have heretofore
been used, more or less successfully while
they were new and worked freely: but
they soon get out of order from exposure
and ale worthless. Mr.. Coliord' appafa-
tus is spiral draft secured by proper
arrangement of permanent disks in
cylinder, good for all time, and entirely
effective in preventing back drafts, such
as are caused by adjoining high walls, etc.
1t also secures another important advan-
tage, viz the equalizing of the draft,
thus securing steady consumption of
fuel which can be regulated with GER
tainty by the usual hampers at the stove
or range, and thus great economy of
fuel, averaging twenty per cent. is
made.
SOFT and pliable woods, such as pine,
willow, alder ETC.. require the use of large
saw teeth, with acute points and consid-
cradle pitch; whereas, hard woods or
those of tougher or denser consistence,
such as oak, mahogany, rosewood etc.,
necessitate the adoption of teeth of a
rotch diminished space.
Yellow deal, pitch pine, larch and some
others, are of such a gummy and resin
GUS character that the teeth not only re-
quire more set, but the blades themselves
have to be smeared with grease to keep
them cool, and to decrease the friction
arising from the adhesion of resin during
the motion, which latter is SO great dis
advantage. Similar results are expert
enced in working soft woods-the teeth
become checked by the damp consolida-
ted sawdust, and are consequently una
BILE to perform their duty without extra
force.
