70 Preserve Eggs.
RECIPE NO. l.

Eggs are lined by packing them
in a liquid made as follows, viz:
One peck of fresh lime is slaked in
sufficient water to make a thin
paste; when thoroughly slaked,
which will require twenty-four
hours, water is added to thin it so
that it can be strained through a
fine sieve into a clean barrel, which
is then filled up with water; the
eggs, perfectly fresh, are laid care
fully into kegs or barrels and the
stirred lime liquor is poured over
them, board being hoated on the
top to keep the eggs under the sur
face. In this way the eggs may be
kept SIX months.-[ Col. Farmer.

that If placed on the small

Ice for Teething Children.

The New York lSma has the following
bit of good news for worried mothers
and tortured babes
The pain of teething may be almost
done away, and the health of the child
benefited, by giving it fine splin-
ters of ice, picked off with pin, to melt
in its mouth. The fragment is SO
small that it is but drop of warm water
before it can be swallowed, and the child
has all the GOODNESS for its feverish gums
without the slightest injury. The avidity
with which the little things taste the
cooling morsel the instant quiet which
succeeds hours of fretfulness, and the
sleep which follows the relief are the
best witnesses to this magic remedy. Ice
may be fed to three-months' child this
way, each splinter being no larger than
a common pin, for five or ten minutes.
the result being that it has swallowed in
that time teaspoonful of warm water,
which, so far from being harm, is good
for it, and the process may be repeated
hourly as often as the fretting fits from
teething begin.

With morning breezes rising, their sordid minds

Monetary Loot.

The first coins of the United States
were struck with the portrait of Martha
Washington, Mr.. Spencer, who cut the
first die, copying her features IN his
medallion. When General Washington
saw the coins he was very wroth, and
before any more were struck OF the
features of his wife, were altered some
what and cap placed on her head, this
being the original of the present Goddess
of Liberty.-Neuo York Graphic.

A CORRESPONDENT says that the "crop"
of manageable young men at the water
ipg-places this season was a failure. Too
many were planted in a hill, perhaps,
and weeds were permitted to grow up
and choke 'em. 1t is a crop that needs
very careful attention and much coax
ing. The top-dressing should be the
best in the market, and the ground
should be plowed deep and thoroughly
irrigated. If these directions are thor
oughly observed, we predict that the
crop will be so large next season that a
Young lady can go out and pick two

Pinafore.

The Nautical Opera "Pinafore, "
was rendered before critical Stevens
Point audience last week, for three
evenings, beginning Thursda yeyening.
Miss Emelie lie Clair of Green Bay,
took the leading role Of. Josephine,
with her usual artistic excellence.
Miss LIE Clair is an artist Of growing
power, and were she to attempt the
more difficult roles of the heavier
opera she would do equally well and
and win laurels before the most critical
audiences. Ralph Rackstraw was
taken by Mr.. Spaulding who person
ated the character admirably. His
voice is of high order, and his con-
ception of the part just and most per
fectly presented. Mr.. Buckingham
as the Admiral was fine Deadeye
was excellent, frst-rate Little But
tercup was excellent, but we think she
should have appeared more charming
dressed more tastily. Little
Buttercup" is "daisy," and every
body falls in love with her, but it
would have been difficult to have
fallen in love with the tasteless habil-
iments Of the ''Little Buttcrcup" IRE
saw, though the character was admir-,
ably rendered. The chorus was
good, and, to be brief, the whole
opera was rendered in masterly man
ner for amateurs. We enjoyed it.
Miss Candaco Ellis presided at the
Piono Forte, most admirably. The
The whole drama was under the direc-
ton of Prof. Bradley Pulling, son of
Judge Pulling of Oshkosh, who gives
promise Of excelling in the difficult
position of director. He directed the
intricate parts most admirably. We
wish him the most abundant success
in his chosen vocation which is honor
able and elovating. Success say we

While at Stevens Point on Saturday
last we learned that T. /. Moore, had
omit working for the w. G. r. R. Co.
The cause was lay off, and how long
they wanted Fred to lay off was in
definite to him. Fred while on his
last trip from Milwaukee to St. Point,
had ditched three cars and the engine,
by the negligence of the switch night
Waterman at Menasha. The switch
was left locked, and opened by the
Waterman, and the engineer not motto
ing it in time could not keep the train
from being ditohed. Our candid opin-
ion is that Fred was layed off unjust
", as we believe F. L. Moore, to be
as faithful man as the w. G. r. r.
Go. have in their employ, aud when
they lose him, they lose one of their
most Trustworthy employees.
