Daring RObberies.-On Monday morn
ing last the house of Mrs. r. G.. Fields, this
town, was entered by thieves aud pair Of
gold bracelets and pair of garnet earrings
made of with The mode of entrance used
is matter of doubt. After entering the house
they went into the dining room and took from
the drawers of hoard the articles men,
toned above. Then they proceeded up stairs
and entered room occupied by the young
male members of the family. 1t is thought
that here they became frightened and made
retreat, carrying with them the coihes of The
yonng men, which were found scattered along
the hall on the first Aoor The room ndjoin-
ing the dining room Is The chamber occupied
by Mrs. Fields and Der daughter, who were
suddenly awakened and their attention was a
once directed TO the side-board, the drawers
being opened and the contents of papers, &C.,
were about on top. The household WAS al
once aroused, but the robbers had made their
escape. All the doors on the Grst floor were
found TO be unlocked aud the chairs 10 the
pa:lor were moved 10 one side of the room so
dining room to the front door on Washington
street. This was abou! 8 clock in the morn
log.
On the same night the restaurant of Mr.. j.
r. Rabbit was entered, and cigars whiskey,
tobacco and money were stolen. Upon one Of
the from, windows were marks of the ins,rn-
,uents The thieves had used In prying open the
shutters aud sash.
The front door Of Hon. W. Y Bouics
house bore marks of an attempted entrance
The china escutcheon around the key-hoe
was broken OF, the key was turned in The
door and showed marks where nippers had
been used but the door was firmly held by
two bolts. Some suspicious signs were noted
about the store of David Fl. Bouic, which led
to the belief that the thieves had also made an
effort here.
On Sunday night there were four tramps
noticed in Rock ville--two were well-dressed
and did not appear 10 belong TO the order, the
other two were lramps absolute. Suspicion
attached 10 these MEN and they pursued on
Monday and two were captured. No crcum-

Tuesday morning one Of the welI-dressed men

EfWe'll have a boat, and not horse this
vacation" roared our hopeful, just out of
school and just in his teens. Because
when we've got boat, we've got 1t, and a
horse always eats his head off, to say moth
ing of shoeing and keeping the wagon in
repair.
So the boat was purchased, second hand
flat bottomed punt, and for two days l
heard little besides cher model
Being the exchequer of the family, the
first draft made was for painting" and
"caulking'' ''because" she needed elk
ing up, and like all other row-boats she
leaked" For two more days the entire
conversation was devoted to the appearance
of ''her bottom" outlying her seams,
and the prettiest colors for our craft.
Once again in the water, she was found
to 'tyaw around badly" when rudder was
decided to be the thing. Consequently a
carpentsr was enlisted and a rudder such as
a house carpenter and land lubber would

| In pulling about the river, on the banks
our hopeful discovered snare in the form
of bOat-builder, who rented all styles of
well made crafts, to make others dIssatis-
| fed with their own. The first of this old
fellows suggestions was sail for the Pin
atore. Therefore, the oars, which, by the
way, were just paid for (the old ones hav-
ing no spoons, were looked upon with
disdain by our son and heir, who began
hosting his breeches and donning the man
ner of skipper. The sail was made and
stepped, and we supposed the goal reached,
when a "leeboard" was found indispensable.
This added, there is nothing now desired,
but new Pindf0re 'built to sail, you
know, not an old tub altered over" Bar
ring the daily renewal of spunge, an oc
casional rowlock, and rope and float, which
are stolen about every other night, we sal
quietly forward, anticipating the new PIN

Street SprinkIing I'm Paris,

The City of Paris employs one or two
very effective devices for street sprinkling,
one of these being tank, or oblong box,
made of sheet iron, and which has seat
for the driver, whence the tank can be Op-
Grated. The capacity of this tank is some
$40 gallons, and it works on a strip fifteen
feet wide at each passage; it is emptied
after a run of from |, 800 to 1000 feet, ac-
cording to it's contents The filling is done
by leather or India rubber hose screwed
to hydrants under the sidewalks, and SC
spaced that the tanks have only short dis
tances to run when emptied. One tank
suffices for an area of two and half acres
of metalled surface, or five acres of paved
streets. Hand sprinklers are used for the
planted alleys; the hose is screwed to by
drants placed at suitable distances, and the
anparatus which is from forty to fifty feet
long can, with head of fifty feet, accom-
plish the task of throwing a jet of forty
feet amplitude.

Fifteen Rules for the Table.

When you go to the table take your seat
quietly and do not commence to eat until
all your friends are served.
Do not eat fast.
Do not shovel your food into your mouth
with your knife, but eat with a fork and
cut your food with your knife.
If you are asked what part of anything
you want, state 1t. If you do not the per-
son waiting on you does not know what to
give you.
Do not rest your elbows on the table.
If plate is passed to you keep it, and
do not pass it all around the table. The
person who waits on you does not know
who to pass the next to.
Do not make the drinking from cup or
spoon vocal exercise.
Do not heap your plate with what you
cannot eat.
If anything is wrong with something you
are eating, do not speak about it or show it
to anybody, but get rid of it as quietly and
quickly as possible.
Do not catch hold of knife, fork, or spoon
with the whole hand with grip like lob
ster's, but hold them easily and in the right
position.
When you pass your plate for more food,
rest your knife and fork against either your
butter plate or saucer.
Do not reach for butter with your own
knife, but use the butter knife.
Do not pour coffee or tea into saucer to
cool.
Do not blow anything to cool it.
Do not leave the table while anybody is
eating without asking to be excused.

In the first place, the thorough house
keeper feels that the successful manage
mcnt of her domestic duties requires much
thought and attention. She is, therefore,
quite willing to eXpend some brain power
upon it. Now, suppose we set aside one
hour each morning, and decide to devote
that entirely to our house. Let the larder
first be visited, and the ways and means
for the days food be well considered before
the orders are given; and then, if possible,
! let the orders be i1nal. Do not consider it
mt all derogatory TO be seen studying a
cookery book; we must be very perfect if
we can learn nothing from other sources.
Endeavor to have q change of food, and
also variety in the way of serving it-in
short, study your daily dinner. Have u
book upstairs in which you enter all the
orders and quantities which shsuld be given
to the tradespeople each day, and should
the cook order extra or different things, let
her understand that you intend to be the
dispenser of your own income. A good
housekeeper will have some plan i'm her
mind for the weeks food. She will know
when the cook should have sufficient stock
to make soup; and every housewife will
soon find how expecting the soup to be
made. and explaining how it must be done,
will form the habit of having it done.
Our servants are very much what we make
them, and it has been the lazy and inetfi
cient system that housekeeping has degen-
Grated into that has made servants what
they are. In factories and workshops, the
foreman or forewoman exercises constant
supervision over the workpeople; so also
should our servants be looked after. After
the kitchen is attended to, walk up stairs
and see if the rest of the work is properly
carried on. Probably you have given some
order, see if it has been executed as Won
wish. This general supervision will be ten
times more etfectual than the usual fault
finding by fits and starts-a grand row now
and then, when both mistress and maid
lose the control of their tempers, and which
probably ends in notice to quit being given
from one side to the other. Lastly, pay
your bills yourself: it brings you into CON
tact with your tradespeople; it lets you
know more fully the current prices of arti-
cles. Now, your hours time well en-
ployed, and done to the best of your ability,
dismiss the subject from your mind. Do
not be worrying over dinners and servants
all day. always bemoaning shortcomings;
and, above and beyond all, be morally
courageous In home that is well and
conscientiously managed, it will be impos-
sible to find discomfort and unhappiness.
