On Cooking.

Cooking-classes have been popular
among fashionable young ladies of late
years. But there is no cooking-class
which quite equals in its opportunity
for excellent information, that which
you may find at home. Persuming
that / am talking to a girl that has just
lett school, | advise you to make use of
your leisure in taking lessons of your
mother. There is an absolutely splen-
did feeling of independence in know
ing how to make perfectly light, sweet,
substantial bread. Then try your hand
at biscuits, mullins, corn bread, toast,
and all the different forms into which
breadstuffs may be blended. Toast is
simple enough, but it is frequently so
poorly made that it does not deserve
the name. Toast, a necessity of the
sick room, is often a hopeless mystery
to women who have the vaguest idea
of how it is evolved from the raw ma
terial. After you have mastered the
bread question, try meats and vege-
tables. Any bright girl who can COM
prehend an equation, or formulate a
syllogism, can overcome the difficulties
which beset her when learning to cook.
Lucent syrups, golden cake, d~elicately
Drowned bread, ~quivering %jellies, melt
ing creams, and the whole set of ma
terial things glorified, because made
for loves sake, and for the good o fone's
dear ones, are fit expressions for any
woman. The charm of this accomplish
ment lies in the fact that it imparts to
its owner a gratifying sense Of power,
it bestows on her, too, the power of
blessing and resting those she loves
best. Wherever the cook goes she takes
her welcome along. One may tire of
the sweetest singing, of the loveliest
poetry, Of the finest painting, and of
the most witty conversation, but of
good cooking, never. But / would be
sorry to have you contented to be only
a cook, only a domestic machine. That
Is not my meaning or intention. Be
artist, poet, inventor, and well-bred
woman; be the most and the best that
you can, and add, as a matter of course,
ability to keep house well and to do all
that good housekeeping includes.

a New Electric Light.-Another form
of electric light has been added to the
many recently devised within the past
few months. The inventor is Mr. n. II.
Bruce, of Troy, N. Y. The machine is
simple, not exceeding five pounds in
weight, and possesses at least one novel
feature. The Troy Times gives this de-
scription of the apparatus: son a cir
cular stand, partly wood and partly
brass, are mounted two small posts,
eighteen and twenty inches in height.
From these two arms project toward
each other for the support of a carbon
candle. Outside of the longer post is a
brass tube between one and two inches
in diameter, and twelve inches long.
Within ii Is a weight two inches long,
which is made to follow the sand, with
which the tube is filed, as 1t runs out
at a small orifice at the bottom. As the
sand goes out the weight, sinking with
a low and regular, raise by means of a
cord and pulley, a second carbon cam
die in such a way tnat the upper end is
in close proximity constantly with the
lower end of the upper carbon candle.
Wires close the circuit between the car.
bOns and a powerful dynamo electric
machine supplies the current. By means
of a little contrivance the size of the
opening for the outflow of the sand may
be increased or diminished at pleasure.
The carbons give out a steady, brilliant
light, equal to 1900 candles, last seven
hours, and may be obtained for So a
hundred. The inventor designs his
light for the illumination of parks,
streets and for coast service only"

A Faithful Dog.

Charley Dykeman, a handsome, au-
burn-haired youth, was the son of an
East Rockaway farmer. Three years
60 he bought a puppy, half Newfound-
land and half hunting breed, for which
he cherished extraordinary regard. He
fed him with his own hand, attended
to his many wants, and would allow
no Zone to modest him or interfere
with his comfort. The dog in turn
evinced, 1t seemed, the utmost affec-
ton and gratitude for his kind treat
ment. He followed his master every
where, and would eat from no other
hand than his. He capered and bark
ed with e~xtravagant joy whenever
Charley appeared.
In the middle Of last December,
young Dykeman died, and being very
popular, had a large funeral. The
procession had scarcely moved berore
a large black dog with a strap around
his neck and a piece of broken rope
dangling from it, jumped from the
roadside and dashlng by the rear car
riages stationed himself painting, under
the hearse. His shabby coat was o v
cred with mud and torn with briers.
sits Charley's dogl" exclaimed a
dozen persons who had seer the ami
NAL In his masters lifetime, and who
knew him well.
ow he had managed to get loose
no one could tell. Every effort to
coax him from under the hearse failed
and he was allowed to remain there.
During the whole of the seven miles
journey, the dog toiled YEARLY on
through the mud and slush, never
parting company with the hearse un
til 1t reached tie little cemetery in the
rear Of the Presbyterian Church in
Hampstead. After the earth had
been smoothed over the grave, and the
last mourner had quilted the cemetery
the dog sprang from behind a bush,
and with a long howl, sank down on
the newly made mound. lie lay over
the head of the grave in a c~rouching
attitude, with his fore paws extended
and his head buried between them.
Darkness came on, but he did not stir.
The cold increased, yet he lay stretch
ed out upon the damp earth, and re-
fused to move. All night he remain
ed there. When, early the next morn
ing, a wandering lad from a house
across the street crept into the little
churchyard, he found the dog cold,
and half frozen at his post.
During the intense cold Of Friday,
January 3, when the thermometer fell
to 4 degrees below zero, and icy blasts
swept over the Hampstead plains, the
dog lay for ten hours on his masters
grave. When the dog is absent from
the grave in search Of food, 10 one
seems to know where he goes.

SCIENTIFIC.

An Early and SuecessfHI Electric Light.
from Professor Farrsr, Of the Torpedo
Station at Newport, X. l., shows that
as early as 1859 he had succeeded In d.
yidlng the electric current, and light
ing his house successfully by electrici-
~. "a galyanic battery" says the
Professor, "of some three dozen six
gallon irs was placed In the cellar Of
the house, and this furnished the cleo
trlc current which wBs conveyed by
suitable conducting wires TO the man
tle-piece Of the parlor, where were
placed two electric lamps, on each end
OF the mantle-piece. Either lamp could
be lighted at pleasure, or both at once,
by simply turning a little button to the
right for light, TO the left for a dark.
No matches, no danger, no care TO the
household, nor 10 anyone except 10 the
man who attended to the battery. This
light was noticed as being soft, mild,
agreeable to the eye, and more delight
full TO read or sew by than any light
eve seen before. its use was discontin-
ued, at that time, for the simple reason
that the acids and zinc consumed in the
battery made the light cost about four
times as much as an equivalent amount
Of gas-light. Now that we can have
cheap electricity from the dynamo. cleo
trio machine, we may SOC expect better
things Of 1t. In the year 1865 / subdi-
vlded an electric current into forty
two different branches, putting a light
into each branch. All these lamps were
supplied with electricity from one ma
chine, which did not weigh more than
500 pounds, and which was driven by a
small steam-engine."

Destruction Of Insects.

In Germany, school children are in
structei to distinguish the most COM
mon noxiOus from beneficial insects (;
also to collect and destroy the former.
In N district, (~Segeburg) the num-
Der OF May beetles taken by children
the past season amounted to ii, 1876
kilogrammes about 81 $50 pounds be-
sides 500 pounds weight OF the larya
or grubs of the same insect. Taking
the number Of beetles to the kilO.
gramme as 800, the total number will
amount to over $4,000, 900. This is a
practical method of curtailing the raw
ages of the "white grub" and might
with benefit, be put to use in the
United States, where insects Of SINH
lar habits abound.

A Very Natural Mistake.

A young man from II of the back
towns came in to buy a present for his
girl last week. His wandering gaze
being fixed by the gorgeous display in
a dry goods window, he entered the
store, and bashfully stopped in front of
a pretty young lady behind the coun-
ter.
GLOW much are those ?"he inquired,
pointing at a pair of handsomely
wrought nickle-plated carriers in the
window.
"Seventy-fiye %cents,' replied the
young lady, sweetly, handing out the
articles in question, and blushing
slightly.
81 think they are kinder pretty, don't
you?" inquired tho young man, anx-
ious for somebody's else opinion.
"very,p replied the young miss;
''they are the latest STYLE"
Everybody wears them, don'tthey ?"
continued the young man..
almost everybody, !" said the young
lady, affecting an u%neoncerned air.
81 was goin' to get them for a gal
that / know" said the young man,
somewhat n%ervously. Do you think
she would like them"
81 should think she might don't
know" returned the young lady blush
ing again. ~
"Well, Idon'thardly know, myself"
said the young man, picking up n Of
the dainty articles, and examining it
closely.
"Youdon't suppose they are too large,
now, do you ?"
"Why-IAI--"stamme the young
lady, the blush growing deeper.
''They seem sorter big like" con-
tinued the young man, not observing
her confusion, but of course | wouldn't
be certain, She's middlin' size, but
not very fat, and mebbe these would be
a little TOO loose. / should think she
was just about your bigness, an if
these would fit you, Of course they'd
ft her. Now, just suppose you try
them on, an if"
"Sir" exclaimed the young lady be-
hind the counter, in an awful voice,
that lifted the young mans hat on the
end of his hair, ''you are insulting;'
and she swept away to the rear of the
store, leaving the bewildered young
man standing in dumb %amazement,
holding in his hands what he supposed
was a beautiful pair of bracelets.
And when one of the men clerks
came and explained his mistake, the
young man from the back town struck
a direct line for his team, and In a very
brief space of time was tearing toward
home at a rate that threatened TO IRE
trievably ruin the old family horse.

Quicken the Circulation,

Don't let the blood stagnate in your veins.
You eau prevent its doing 30 by increasing it's
volume and purity, by stimulating the diges-
tive organs, and encouraging assimilation,
with that matchless v.talizing agent, Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters. People not afflicted
with any organic or inorganic disease, grow
wan and haggard simply because their blood
is thin, watery, deficient In nourishing proper
ties and 30 meager in quantity that the extTem-
tiles are very imperfectly supplied with it, and
the superficial circulation extremely feeble.
Hence the bloodless appearance Of the coun-
tenance. Rut when the b tiers are used to
enrich and quicken the blood, the rosy hue Of
health returns TO the cheek, the frame ac-
quires substance as well as vigor, the appetite
improves, and no digestive qullms interfere
either with its qualification or the subsequent
tranquility Of the stomach.

There are something's in the history
of the honey bee which show a fidelity
and devotion that is really touching.
There is something almost human in
their loyalty to their sovereigns. Sew
raj instances are upon record where
bees watched i've and guarded the re-
mains of their queen for days, licking
and caresslng her as though they were
trying to restore her to life. Though
food was supplied they refused to eat,
and at the end of four days every bee
was dead.
When a queen makes a royal pro-
gress through the hive, she is always
attended by a body guard, not a par
ticular number OF bees that are devoted
to her person, but a body guard which
forms itself at her approach out of the
subjects through which she is about to
pass, but who fall back into their reg
ular work when the has gone by. She
never LACKS the most dutiful and devot-
ed attention; those about her, when
ever she moves, caress her, offer her
honey, and cluster around her to keep
her warm if she is chilly.
When a swarm loses a queen, they
are at first in deep and violent grief; If
a new queen is Immediately given to
them, they refuse to accept her. If,
however, twenty-four hours is allowed
to elapse, they reconcile themselves to
the idea Of her loss, and receive a SUBJ
stitute with royal bOnors.
The instinct of the bees denies all our
traditions OF instinct; 1t adapts itself to
circumstances, overcOmes new and un-
expected obstacles, benefits by expert
ence, employs temporary expedlents,
and then casts them aside when the oc
casion for their use is gone, in a way
which is marvelously like reason. 1t
is, indeed difficult to draw any line be-
tween the two qualities when looked
at in minute detail it is only in its Gu.
mulative power, which produces such
different Eff cts, that we can dare to
make the distinction, and then we are
at a loss for a definition. 1t is strange
to find In the insect world, among an
order of beings s low in the scale Of
the naturalist, a faculty so near akin
to the divine gift of reason which is
mans browning glory. But it Is just
here among the bees and among the
ants that it is most marvellous and
most perfect.

COcoASUT AND CHOCOLATE CARAMELs.
-Cocoanut candy is made by taking
two pounds Of sugar to an ordinary CO.
coanut. Add the milk Of the cOcOa
nut 10 the sugar, with a little water II
the milk Is less than a small teaeuplul.
Stew until II ropes when poured from
a spoon, then stir In the cocoanut,
which you should have all ready grated,
and pour into buttered pans. When
cool break into pieces-a process which
will be facilitated If, when the candy Is
cool, but not cold, you score IL half
through with a knife. ANY nut candy
can be made In the same manner by
substituting nut kernels for the grated
cocoanut. For cream candy allow a
cupful of rich cream TO three pounds of
sugar and stew until the syrup can lies
when dropped into cold water. Then
flavor with vanilla, lemon, or what you
like, and pour into buttered pans to
cool, or pull the candy as you prefer.
Another recipe for cream candy, with
out the cream, requires two cups Of
graduated sugar. d half cup of water "a
piece of butter the size Of a walnut,
two table spoonsful Of vinegar, and two
teaspoonsfnl Of vanilla. Do not stir
while boiling. When done, pour on
buttered plates, and when cold pull it
until white. There are many recipes
for chocolate caramels. The following
will be found reliable: 10 a pint Of
milk add three pounds of sugar and
half a pound of butter. Let the mixture
come to a boil, when add half a pound
of chocolate, scraped fine. Let il boil
until quite thick, stirring all the time.
1t will be better IL you mix the chOco-
late smooth with a cupful of the boiling
milk before adding II to the whole
quantity. When done, flavor with
lemon or vanilla, and pour into buttered
pans. When nearly cold cut into small
squares. A delicious fruit candy is
made by adding chopped raisins and
figs TO a syrup made by stewing two
pounds Of sugar with the juice of two
lemons, or, If lemons are not at hand,
with a cupful of vinegar favored with
essence OF lemon. Dried cherries and
any firm preserves may be used instead
of the raislns and figs. For cream
chocolates, take one pound white sugar,
a teacupful of water and a half pound
OF chocolate. Scrape the chocolate and
set 1t on the back of the stove TO melt
into a paste. Boil the sugar and water
together for ten or fifteen minutes, then
take off and beat rapidly until it is
creamy, flavor to taste, then roll into
small balls, a teaspOonful to each ball,
and dip in the chocolate until covered.
For this you can use two forks, hand
ling the balls carefully. Lay them on
buttered paper to cool,
