Twisted Sentences.

A correspondent of the New England
Journal has collected the following
specimens of false synta1:
An Iowa editor thus acknowledges q
present of grapes "We have received
basket Of grapes from our friend W.,
for which he will accept our compli-
ments. some of which are nearly two
inches in diameter"
A widow at the West intended to sue
ceed her husband in the management of
hotel, advertises that I" the hotel will
be kept by the widow of the former
landlord, Mr.. Brown, who died last
summer on new and improved plan. "
One of Sir Boyle Rockies invitations
to an Irish nobleman was rather equivo.
cal. He writes: 81 hope my lord, if
you ever come within a mile of my
house you will stay there all night"
A coroner's verdict reads thus "The
deceased came to his death by excessive
drinking, producing apoplexy in the
minds of the jury"
A clergyman says: GA young woman
died in my neighborhood, yesterday,
while I was preaching in beastly state
of intoxication."
A correspondent. in writing of re-
sent celebration in the city Of Cleve-
land, says: "The procession was very
fine, and nearly two miles long, as was
also the report of DIR. Perry, the chap
lain."
A Western paper says ga child was
run over by a wagon three years old,
and cross-eyed. with pantalets on, which
never spoke afterwards"
Over bridge at Athens, Ga, was the

this bridge in faster pace than q walk

five lashes, half the penalty to be be-
slowed on the former.

The Art Of Making Coffee.

The art of making coffee consists in
observing one or two simple things.
First of all it should be freshly ground ;
the next thing is to draw out the full
strength and aroma, and at the same
time preserve the fluid perfectly clear
and fresh from grounds. On the COD
tinent it is boiled for short time but
in England it is usually soaked in water,
kept as near boiling point as possible.
The French are generally allowed to be
the best coffee makers in the world, and
they allow one ounce of coffee to each
cupful of water. Two pots are used in
the making. Into one, boiling water is
poured on the ground coffee and allowed
to remain four or five minutes, when it
is poured off as clear as possible. The
grounds are then boiled with the re-
naming water for two Or three minutes,
and both lots mixed together. A shred
of saffron or a little vanilla is often
added, and to make the grounds settle,
half q cupful of cold water is sprinkled
over the decoction ; this descends to
the bottom, carrying the grounds with
it, Coffee may be clarified also by add
ing q shred of isinglass or little white
of nm egg. The great fault of English
coffee making is the failure to draw out
the full strength, and this arises, in
most households, from the use of the
water which has not reached the boiling
point, or the too great haste with which
the infusion is made. The best safe
guards against the latter mishap is the
q nse of the French - tetieres, which aro
now every consmon and cheap, and by
the aid of which coffee can be made in
great perfection and with the greatest
Of ease, and without any risk or failure
through carelessness or inattention.

The Frigate Bird.

I see small blue point in the heaven.
Happy and serene region, which has
rested in peace above the hurricane In
that blue point, and at an elevation OF
10000 feet, royalty floats little bird
with enormous wings. A gull ? No
its wings are black. An eagle? No
the bird is too small. It is the little ocean
eagle, first and chief of the winged race,
the daring navigator who never furls his
sails, the lord of the tempest, the scorner
of all peril-the man-of-war or frlgate
bird. We have reached the eliminating
point of the series, commenced by the
wingless bird. Here we have bird
which is virtually nothing more than
wings scarcely any body-barely as
large as that of the domestic cook
while his prodigious pinions are fifteen
feet in span. The great problem OF
flight is solved and overpassed, tor the
power of flight seems useless. Such a
bird, naturally sustained by such sup
port. need not allow himself to be borne
along. The storm bursts he mounts
to lofty heights, where he finds tran
quillity. The poetic metaphor, untrue
when applied to any other bird, is no
exaggeration when applied to him
literally, he sleeps upon the storm.
When he chooses to soar his way seri-
ously, all distance vanishes !; he break
fasts at the Senegal he dimes in Amerl-
ca.-Mchelet.

thought came to her that sent the BLOOD
all out of her cheeks. How could shs
have forgotten it She drew away from
him and looked up into his face with
frightened glance.
"But the picture" she stammered
"What picture ?" in perplexed tone
"Why, the picture in your pocket
book"
John Denike leaned back and laughed
"You poor child" said he, "have
you been making bugbear out of that
Why, it's only my sister Nellie She's
missionary's wife, and lives in the Fee.
ice Islands. I was anxious about it, be-
cause it would be hard for me to get an
other one."
And so that cloud drifted away. And
if it had not been for Terry Mcclure
believe Maud would have been supreme
" happy. Somehow or other the boy
learned the news, and took upon himself
the task of reproducing his teacher.
"I introduced you to 'im," he COM
planned, "and now yer've went back on
me-"
Whether she had or not, Maud could
not satisfactorily settle with herself. In
tho contentment Of her new experience,
this was almost the only disquieting
element.
"You must have a dreadful poor
opinion of me-" she said, plaintively,
one day, to Mr.. Denike.
"Why ?" he asked, with unaffected
surprise.
"Because I've let my ambition be 30
easily upset."
John smiled indulgently.
"Not upset, DEAR" said he, "only
Diverted"
And to this view of the case Maud not
unwillingly consented.

Snow Star.

1t is to the eye that searches into the
heart of things that the snow reveals its
most wonderful beauty, for it is OF that
truest kind which bears the closest in
spection. Take one of the myriad snow
fakes which obscure the atmosphere
as they fall, and put it under the micro
scope. It melts almost instantly, but
not before you have caught glimpse
of loveliness that astonishes you. It is a
perfect crystal, consisting of six rays,
spreading in the most symmetrical man
ner from the entire, and often provided
with smaller rays. Formless and uni
form as a wreath Of suow looks, it is COM
posed of myriads Of such crystals, whose
shape are so exquisite that the eye is
never weary of looking at them. Their
variety is most wonderful. Thirty
different kinds may be observed during
any Of our toWn snow storms while in
high Northern latitudes upwards of a
hundred varieties have been delineated
that looked as if designed from a
kaleidoscope, yet all based upon the
simple plan of the six-rayed star.

Salye for Wounded Hearts.

Some of the breach of promise suits
are interesting. The defendant in a
case in Cambridge, o., is the Rev. W.
A. Chalfort, and the plaintiff is his
niece. Rebacca Dalton, a Cleveland
widow, estimates her damages at $l0,-
600, that being the sum that William
Barchard, wealthy and very old man,
promised to give her if she would marry
him. he is yet willing to make her his
wife, but has backed out Of the money
part of the bargain, and it is an inter-
esting legal question whether she can
compel him to keep the whole of his
promise. Levi j. Law, Of South Bend.
Ind, was betrothed to Miss Welsh, and
Miss Hall was betrothed to Mr.. Smith.
The wedding of the latter couple WAS
set for certain day, and all the prepara.
tions were made but Law induced Miss
Aall to marry him, instead Of Smith.
Now Smith wisely reasoned that he was
we'll rid of such girl but Miss Welsh
was not so easily paciied. She tried to
drown herself, and, failing in that, she
commenced suit for s., 600 damages. A
man is suing woman in Elkton, III. ,
for jilting him. In his complaint he
makes no mention of any damage to his
heart but he lays stress on the fact
that the defendant has property worth
876. 600,

A Feline Nurse.

Calling at farm house the other day,
says writer in an English paper. 1 was
told was Just day too late to see o
yery wonderful sight-a cat nursing
SOME little chicks. It appears the cat
had a family of dead kittens few days
before, and the same morning some five
or six chicks were Matched. As there
we're others to come out, the lady OF the
house took the just Matched chicks into
the house till all were hatched, and
placed them before the fire in the sitting
room, or, as we say here, the keeping.
room. Pussy, greatly to the horror OF
the good lady of the house, took great
fancy to them, and could not be kept away
from them. Wishing to see what would
take place the owner allowed her to come
near, when she began to stroke them
down with her paw in the most affection
ate and tender manner, and, after awhile,
lying down, gathered them well under
her. There she lay all the day; in the
evening they were taken from her, but
the next day she did the same !: but the
third day, fearful of accidents, they were
taken away from her and put under their
proper mother, who had now hatched
out her whole brood. I wonder what
pussy would have done with them?
