DoN'T Pound Your STEAK. ex-
change has the following: We hear great
deal about that =" abomination called fried
steak" l will tell you how to make tough
steak tender, and how 10 Try it SO that it
Will be juicy. Do not pound it with either
a rolling pin or a potato-masher, or even
with that jagged piece of metal or crockery
ware which house-f furnishing dealers VAL
try and delude you in buying. If you
pound it you will only batter its tbers
and let cut ell its juices. Pour into
the bottom of dish three tablespoonful
each of vinegar and salad oil, sprinkle on
them half salt spoonful of pepper and a
tablespoonful of chopped parsley, if you
have it. Do not use any salt. The action
of the oil and vinegar will be to soften and
disintegrate the tough fbers of the meat
without drawing out it's juices, The salt
would do that most effectually, and harden
the fiber besides. You may add teaspoon
full of chopped onion, if YOU like its flavor.
Lay the steak on the oil and vinegar for
three or four hours, turning it over every
half hour, and then saute or half fry 1t
quickly. Season it with salt after it is
cooked, and serve it with a very little
fresh butter, or with the gravy from the
frying-pan. Ii you follow these directions,
and do not try TO improve upon them, you
can have tender steaks hereafter at will.
Is SMOKING INJURIOUS ?-The excessive
indulgence in any appetite lie injurious,
but it has long been a question whether
the moderate use of tobacco in any of the
customary forms is attended with any dele
ferrous effects. Here IS an item on this
head that can be taken for what it is
worth /: At Yale College each class is
graded in divisions according to scholar
ship, the best scholars being in the first,
and so on down to the fourth, where they
are rated "not too good, yet good
enough" to keep in the ranks In the
junior class it was found that only 10 out
of 40 in the first division were addicted to
smoking Is out of 81 in the second 20
out of III in the third, and % out of rs in
the fourth. The proportion of smokers, it
will be observed, increases in regular ratio
with the falling off in scholarship. The
inference is against the smokers, but it is
not certain that there are not other causes
to account for the falling off in mspta21
ability. It is not unusual for~n

A'ENrEE's PORTRAITS.

The breakfast-room is to be decorated
with Jervis McEntee's fifteen cabinet por-
traits of Booth in his principal impersona
tions-Hamlet, Othello, Iago, Lear, Mac

Shakespearean-Ri chelieu, Bertuccio and
Don Cesar de Bazan. They are exceed
ingly good, and have been greatly admired
by all who have seen them. McEntee is
one of our most gifted artists, but he has
won his prominence by landscapes. This
is his first attempt at fgure-pieces, and he
has been singularly happy therein. He
would not have undertaken the work but
for the continued urging of Booth, who is

U. an instance OF how the regulators
work in that country. 1t is said the
there are $500 in the organization. On

One OF the contractors happened to

OF It. The citizen said there were
'srrangements' in Carter county fol-
that sort OF thing. and he would see it.
That night about $50 regulators
arrived at the railroad camp, held a
court and examined witnesses. They
then selected tree, put some rope at
the bottom Of it and stationed sentry
over 1t, after which they informed the
strikers that il they were not at werk

DEAR HERALD:
We hope word OCCASION
ally from our quiet, and pleasant little
Valley, will nct DO out Of ylace, nor al
together devoid Of interest to your
readers.
Our wheat crop is looking only mod
erately well. The dry weather for the
past week has put the late wheat back
somewhat; but farmers think that with
favorable weather from now till harvest,
we will have a good average crop.
Corn planting is done, corn IS coming
up nicely, and plcwing will soon begin.
We had frost laat Thursday, Friday
and Saturday nights. All the available
crooks, buckets and barrels were hunted
up turned over the tender vines to
protect them from the frost: So far as
We are able to learn, ne serious dam
age has been done to the vegetable
kingdom We:hope that the " freaks
OF the frost" are past, at least for the
present season.
Rev. VIM. Dofflemoyer preached at
Joppa yesterday to an attentive congre-
CATION, from lst Psalm, 18th verse.
The sermon was as usual, good, and
highly appreciated by all who heard it.
Our old friends Thomas loreland,
Esq. and Miss Emma Shut, daughter
of William Shut, were married last
Thursday. We were not present, but
understand. that the wedding was a
very pleasant one. And now friend
Thomas here is our hand to you and
yours. May God bless you! You
have given each other all the past,
present and future, even to the foot OF
the beautiful throne: Your dreams IN
the past, all on the shelves of the future
may they blossom more beautiful than
the budding. May the flowers by your
path, through life, be even brighter than
in your dreams.
May you 60 hand in hand. in sick
ness or in health, poverty or wealth, by
day and by night, 10 sunshine and storm,
hopeful and happy with trusting, low
ing hearts, to that land where all is
love, is the prayer OF
