EDUCATION F0R TEnE KITCHEN,

Cooking schools are springing up IL
many places in this country and in Eng
land, and the English are taking the lead
in organizing them as a part of their ma
,ional and common school system. OF the
importance, the imperative necessity of
this movement, there cannot be the
slightest question. Our kitchens, as is
perfectly notorious, are the fortified in
yrepchments of Ignorance, prejudice, IRA
tionul habits, rule of-tlumb and mentaI
vacuity, and the consequence is that the
Americans are liable to the reproach Of
suffering beyond any other people from
yasteful, unpalatable, unhealthy and mo
Aotonous cookery. Considering our re.
sources, and the Wanted education and
Intelligence of American women, this re-
yroach is just Our kitchens are, in fact,
lmost abandoned to the control of low
.rish, stupid negroes, and raw servile
nenials that pour in among us from various
foreign countries. And what is worse,
here is a general acquiescence in this
state of things, as if it were something
ated, and relief from it hopeless and i'm
| Jossible We profess to believe in the
| i,otency of education, and are applying it
| o all other interests and industries except
ug only the fundamental art of the pre-,
paration and use of food to sustain life
shich involves more of economy, enjoy
nent, health, spirits and the power of
Elective labor, than any other subject that

CORRECTING tG.A.SOAAL ESU A
TEON.

AS science progresses and accuracy in.
creascs there is a tendency to eliminate, as
far as possible, the physiological element.
In the transit instrument, for example, the
oye-piece has five or seven wires, and the
observer has to note the time that the image
of the star crosses the wires; for this pur-
pose, he listens to the tricks of the clock
while watching the star, and if it crosses
the wire between two ticks he has to est
mate the fraction of the second at which it
passed. 1t is found in this as in all eye
observations, some observers obtain diff
ferent results from Others some anticipa-
ting the phenomenon, and others recording
it little too late The necessity for esti-
mating the fractions of seconds is obviated
by means of the instrument called the
chronograph, which consists of a drum, ro-
tating at tolerably uniform rate of speed
by clock-work; the sidereal clock causes an
clectrict current to pass through an electro
magnet at every second, making a series
of dots on the drum, the interval be-
tween each pair representing second of
time; the observer at the transit instrument
is able by means of key to send current
through another electromagnetic of the
chronograph, which makes similar dots by
the side of the second marks on the
drum. At each passage of the star across
a wire, he depresses the key, and in this
way the time is much more accurately
measured, but still the personal equation
interferes with the precision. 1t is hoped
that means may be devised of photo
graphing the position of the star at known
periods, which would get rid of all personal
equation. Photography is already en-
ployed in many astronomical observations,
such as eclipses, transits of planets over the
sun, sun-spots, and for making accurate
records of the positions of the bright and
dark lines in the spectra of the sun, stars,
and of terrestrial elements. Of recent
years much attention has been paid to as
Economical physics, that is, the investiga,
ton of the quantity and kind of light and
heat reaching the earth from celestial
bodies. In this way, by means of the
thermo-electric pile, the spectroscope, and
the polariscope, many important results
have been obtained, not only with regard
to the constitution of these bodies, bu
also of their proper mction.-1As Spec
tator.

If by the rude manner of the employer or
s clerks; for, as class, ladies are apt to
resent in this way any want of politeness
in those whose stores they patronize.
In no branch of trade and in no condi-
ton of life can we afford to dispense with
politeness. 1t wins hearts and ensures at
tention. 1t is said of the statesman, John
G. Calhoun, that no page ever performed
service for him in the halls of Congress
without receiving in return the kindly
and courteous "thank you, my son." The
effect of this could be seen in the eager
anxiety that these young messengers
evinced to serve him. We are familiar
with the story of the great man who, CT
being reproved for taking off his hat in re-
sponse to the bow of servant, said, "Do
you suppose I would allow servant to
surpass me in politeness ?" "Politeness is
part of my religion said clergyman,
whose politeness of manner had been re-
marked upon; and right well had this part
of his religion served him. 1t never
failed to. draw dollars from the purses
of the most miserly when he appealed
10 them in the name of charity and re-
ligion.
While politeness is inherent with some,
the majority require that it should be
taught them, along with other good les
sons, while they are young. 1t is owing
to the neglect of this early training that
we see SO much rudeness especially among
| youths and men, even of what are known
rs ''the better classes" In fact, the Ia
boring man, who is never dignifed with
the title of gentleman" is often far more
| of one than he who usurps the name be-
| cause lie dresses in broadcloth and lives in
mansion of brown stone. Who has not
seen one of natures noblemen," soiled
with the dust of labor, rise and give his
seat in q street car to q woman, while the
gentleman has quietly and stolidly looked
on from his comfortable quarters. They
both have a right, it is true, to retain the
SedtS luey uhFe pau loij Dup oho, Ill ho0P-
ing his, was actuated by selfishness; the
other in giving up his, was actuated by
politeness.
Pope tells us, Gas the twig is bent, the
trees inclined;" and it would be well
for those who have the training of youth
to consider this We must bend the twis
as we would have it grow; and we must
rear the child in habits of politeness if we
expect to see the polite man. This branch
of early education is apt to be neglected
and the want of politeness Which charac-
terizes the child at home distinguishes him
abroad. We are too apt to regard polite
ness as nom notwithstanding which
can never aid us in fighting our battle
life. While the want of this quality may
not prevent success, the possession of j
sometimes ensures the boon, and ever
when failing to do this, it smooths th'
rugged ways of life, often making the
desert blossom as the rose.

respectable women keep away from the
polls and stay out of politics, and, worse
than all that, the only women who take
an interest in elections are those of the
baser sort! Miss Matilda Hindman, of
Colorado, where ladies are not allowed to
vote, says that the statement that female
suffrage in Wyoming Territory is fail
ure is untrue, and that the women vote
in nicely carpeted room in hotel, and
that the judges are three bright, intelli-
gent females assisted by two dignifed
and pleasing men-that there is no cleo
tioneering g-that they vote on the aver
age in twenty-eight seconds, and then
resume their knitting and chewing-gum
that the men keep quiet and don't spit
on the stove, and that mothers trundle
their baby-carriages to the polling place,
deposit their votes and retire. In several
cases they have attempted to deposit the
baby in the box instead of the ballot, but
this was clearly owing to the novelty of
the situation.

were disturbed by splash in the water as
of some animal jumping into the stream.
Looking in the direction, they saw large
black hog, which had evidently come down
from among the roaming lots of porkers
which make life burden in and around
the town, swimming rapidly toward the
centre of the pool, which was about one
hundred feet wide and eight feet deep.
At about the centre the animal disappeared,
remaining under water for considerable
time, and on reappearing was seen to have
in his mouth live bass about eight inches
long, with which he swan ashore, and
proceeded to eat with the, avidity and
relish peculiar to his species. After have
swallowed the last vestige, with grunt the
animal again betook himself to the water,
and again dived to the bottom. Coming
up with a snort, he made again for the
shore with another fish, which he dis
patched as quickly as before. This was
repeated third time, and on fourth trip
the animal secured small turtle, which it
also carried ashore, and after some diff
Guilty managed to dispatch, breaking the
shell with its strong teeth, after which 1t
ambled off, satisfied with its fishing expert
ences for the day. The story is remarkable
but it is vouched for by gentleman OF
undoubtei veracity, who saw the perform
ance. He thinks the animal must have
caught the fishes under the lodges of rock
in the bottom of the stream, as it seemed
to be roofing among the stones while un-
der the water.

THE CRATEIts IN THE MOON.

Since Galileo first turned telescope
upon the moon, the lunar craters have
been among the wonders and mysteries of
astronomy. 1t is not merely or even chief
ly the vast size of some of those objects
which excites astonishment. Indeed, 1t
might almost be inferred from what we
know of the moons size and general
structure that her volcanic energies would
be more effective, though not greater, than
those of our own earth. The really sur
prising characteristic of the lunar surface
is the amazing number of the lunar craters.
Even Galileo, though with his weak tele
scope he could see but few of the craters
which really exist in the moon, compared
those in the southwestern part of the
moons disk to the eyes i'll peacock's tail.
With each increase of telescope power,
more and more craters have been seen.
Regions supposed to be comparatively
smooth have been found, on closer
scrutiny with higher powers or under more
favorable conditions, to be covered with
minute craters. The slopes of the larger
craters, even in soue cases their floors
have been found to be strewn with small
crater shaped depressions. In fine, almost
the whole surface of the moon may be said
to be pitted with depressions of all sizes,
from mighty gulfs 800 or 400 miles across
down to minute cer-shaped shadows
such as only the most powerful TELESCOPES
! will reveal --Belgrauia.
