\ BOY.-One of the best things in the
world To be is a boy.
Boys have always been so plenty that
they are not half appreciated.
a boy is willing to do any amount of
work that is half play.
The feeling Of boy toward pumpkin
pie has never been properly considered.
A boy furnishes half the entertain
ment, and takes two-thirds of the scOld-
ing, Of the family circle.
1t is impossible to say at what age a
boy becomes conscious that his trowser
legs are too short, and is anxious about
the part Of his hair.
In fact, a boy is hard subject to get
a moral from.

RICE AND TOMATOEs.-BOil one pint
Of rice in three pints Of water for half an

another half hour, without stirring.
This recipe will answer as well with
canned tomatoes as with fresh. When
the latter can be had, fully ripe, peel,
slice and place IN alternate layers with
rice in a porcelain-lined kettle, in the
proportion Of four or five parts tomato
TO one of rice, having tomato for the
upper aud lower layers, and adding all
the juice. Stew very gently on the
stove until the rice is tender.

THE UNsAFETY OF WOMEN IL Iowa.
The Iowa State Register says that
the horrible frequency with which
crime against women is occurring in
Iowa, is a disgrace to the civilization
of the State, and dishOnOr to all the
men in its borders. ain the past two
or three months a dozen women, the
wives of honorable citizens, ladies in
as good society as the State affords, and
as pure women as ever offered prayer
to Heaven, have been made victims Of
the most cruel, fiendish, and horrible
of all crimes known 10 humanity. In
one county alone, two women have
been outraged by devils who were
afterward captured, and are now rest
ing quietly in Jail, eating the easy
bread Of crime. Only last week a re-
specteG lady in another county of the
State, after kindly giving two tramps
their dinner, was outraged by them,
and her little baby killed by the devils,
because it made an Outcry at seeing its
mother in the hands Of the villains"
