Cheap Cooking.

"a q
The Philadelphians are gradually de-
veloping q system for relieving some
what the eternal drudgery Of house,
keeping. Family baking Of meats,pies,
puddirgs, cake, and bread is being per-
formed by bakers at very moderate
charge. Thus, for pies: 2 cents apiece;
for bread loaves, cents pan; for rice
buildings, 8 cents pan; for pan Of
roast meat, 5 cents. By this method
the food is better cooked, and hours of
tiresome attendance on little cooking
stoves are saved. These latter supposed
useful mechanisins in reality furnish
great tax on the housewives time and
patience. They involve continual watch
ing to be kept at the proper heat. The
labor Of 10 horses is expended every
year in bringing Goals for them, and
they keep the atmosphere at an insult
ferable temperature in warm weather.
The time and labor wasted in thousands
Of families by our present system Of per-
forming this domestic service in drib-
lets is enormous. A few men on man.
of-war or an ocean steamer perform
every culinary necessity for thousand
guests. The whole service is tempora-
rily taken from their shoulders. Yet
on the breaking up of these temporary
households, the chances are probable on
shore that each family betake itself to
the old-fashioned dribbling, drudging
household style of culinary service with
out one thought of the time, labor, and
expense saved by having all this labor
delegated to few. One baker and an
assistant can cook dinners for hundred
families, possibly more, at an expense
of say 20 cents per family. The necessa-
ny pail of coal and kindlings for cook
ing a single dinner costs ~ cents alone.
This amount Of fuel must be provided
for each of the hundred families, and,
in every one of them, the time and Ia
Dor of one person for at least an hour
will be required to get up each dinner.
The economical moral to be drawn from
this is obvious, and need not be detailed
in figures. We are as yet great blum
derers in the science Of living. Multi
tudinous cooking-stoves, stewing over
fires, driblets Of attendance all through
the day on the requirements of the
kitchen, drudging with loads of coal up
five or six flights Of stairs, all contribute
among other evils to break down the
wife of the mechanic and laborer and
permanently rob her of all bloom, beauty,
and vigor.-Ney York Graphic.

The completed circle Of summer and win

the accustomed season at which religious
people celebrate with praise and thanksgiv-
ing the enduring mercy of Almighty God. This
devout and public confession of constant do
pendence Of man upon the Divine Father for
all the good gifts OF life and health, and peace
and happiness, so early in our history made
the habit OF Our people, finds IN a survey Of
the past year new grounds for its joyful and
grateful manifestation for oil blessings which
depend upon benignant seasons. This has
indeed been memorable year over the wido
territory of the country. With all its DIVERSE

has yielded bountiful returns to the labor of
the husbandman. The health of the people
has been blighted by no prevalent or wide.
spread diseases. No great disasters Of ship
wreck upon our coasts or to our commerce
on the seas have brought loss and hardship
to merchants or mariners, and cl0uded the
happiness of the community with sympa-
thetic sorrow. In all that concerns our
strength, and peace, and greatness rs ma.
ton; in all that touches the permarence and
security of our Government, and the benefi-
cent institutions on which II rests; in all that
affects the character and disposition of our
uphold the equal md free condition of
society, now permanent and universal
throughout the land, the expert
ence of the last year is conspicuously
marked by the protecting providence Of God,
and is full of hope and promise to coming
generations. Under o sense OF the infinite
obligations to the Great Ruler OF times and
seasons and events, let us humbly ascribe to
our own faults and frailties, If in any degree
that perfect concord and happiness, faith and
Justice which such great mercies should diff
fuse through the hearts and lives of our peO-
pie, DO not altogether and always and every.
where PREVAIL Let us, with one spirit and
one voice. lift up praises and thanksgiving to
God for His manifold good to our land, His
manifold care for the nation.
Now, therefore, I, Rutherford B. Hayes,
President of the United States, do appoint
Thursday, the goth day of November next, rs
and earnestly recommend that, withdraw
ing themselves from secular cares and labOrs,
the people, of the United States do meet to.
gether on that day in their respective places
of worship, thereto give thanks and praise
to Almighty God for His mercies and to de-
voutly beseech their continuance.
In witness whereof have hereunto set my
