Reaction OF tn: sexes.

The kitchen is woinan's kingdom.
Here she works her will-baking,
boiling, stewing, frying hopping,
washing, ironing; emphatically ruling
the roast. For ages she has reigned
and wrought, unas,istnd and unques-
toned, save by some meddlesome,
tasting soyer, or cadaverous, bran-and-
water-eating Graham. Naturally hat
ing innovation, she has been content
to do everything just as her mother
used to. 1t is only within a genera
zion or two that science aud invention
have secured place Oh the hearth
stone; hut no sooner there than the
hearth-stone is abolished, the fire place
walled up, and the fire inclosed in an
iron box. Clumsy and awkward as
the boxes doubtless were at first, it
would have been long before women,
If left to themselves, would have ven
tured to improve the pattern; yet the
secret history of the patent ranges,
patent ovens, and the thousand and
one neat contrivances that adorn the
kitchen of to-day, would show that
women's wit, not less than mans wis
dom, lies at the bottom OF the change.
Steam at last lends its magic fingers
to aid her in her toll. Monday morn
ing has lost half its tcrrors; for now,
instead of the tub, the corrugated
board and the Bonded back, the sole
agencies used by our foremothers n
crank is turned, and 10 the scrubbing
is flashed; another crank, the clothes
are wrung; while another returns them
ironed. Leave the kitchen and ascend
the parlor. One Of its neatcst pieces
is the sewing machine The days of
never-done, eyes-aching, sewing extend
ing from mother Eve to the time of
Elias Howe, are over at last A buzz
OF wheels, rattle Of the shuttle, and
a yard of seam is done. Women
probably invented sewing by hand;
men taught them to sew by foot One
can easily believe that woman first
learned of the angels to sing; men
made the beautiful piano to accompa-
NJ her. Now let Us just take one
glance at the other side. Visit some
factory or machine shop where women
never so. Grease, dirt and disorder
are the leading features. Man, how
ever he may be en- ingenious animal,
is not al over-neat one; and here his
deficiency becomes patent. If men
know their true interest they will open
every door for the advancement Of
woman to equal knowledge and skill
with themselves, and in every depart
ment will profit By her keen instinct,
as much as by their own Wanted
science.

Big Cattle Drive.

The Oregonidn gives a list of stock men
OF Eastern Oregon from whom Messrs. Lang
& Ryan have purchased cattle to drive east
with The number secured from each person.
The total number of which is %, 500, $500
OF them from Idaho. To drive these to the
Yellowstone country, where they will Win
ter, will require 500 head of horses and the
services OF 100 men. Mos. of these COW
boys are Kansas men, who have been in the
employ OF this concern for the past six
years. Forty wagons accompany the drive,
and about 100 stand of loaded rifles will al.
ways be on h.nd good for about 5000 shots
at any band Of hostile Indians that may at
tack them. The drive will be cut up into
three squads or bands of cattle, the frs. lot
having two days start of the third. This
brings them within easy range OF tha rear
from the front. In April they viii begin to
gather up for the start, and by the 18th OF
that month the greatest body of cattle ever
banded together will be slowly marching
eastward. Up to the 10Th of June the
drive viii be about nine miles per day, but
as the heat Of Summer comes along they
will decrease it to about five. Therefore
steer travels no more Oh a drive of this kind
than he would upon the range, and is sure
to be in good order when he reaches the
Yellowstone, as there is abundance OF bunch
grass as soon as the Grande Ronde river is
passed. OPP npia Transcript

Advice to Marrying Men.

1t would be extravagant to pretend that
all young manageable girls are angels. but
thcre are angels among mairiageable girls.
This is not even exceptional. and, odd as it
may appear, less exceptional in Paris than
elsewhere. The well bred young girls of
Paris are admirably well bred. almost too
much so. Their mothers so refine their in.
tellectual and moral culture that they make
up creature so delicate that it cannot bear
the touch Of an ordinary mortal without be-
ing wounded and whitening This exquisite
kind Of education naturally attracts the
MARI, ing man; it seems to him strong
guarantee of coniegal prosperity and secur-
ity. He watches for this fine game, carries
her off in triumph and sleeps in peace. Far
be from us to disturb such sweet tranquility.
Some fade and die, others degenerate. and
return wildly TO a savage state. Conse-
quently the fool can not be too strongly
urged to marry fool; that would be the
easiees, the most humane and honest way.

Solomon the Preacher.

Solomon was great experirpentcr
on human life. He tried all ways of
it. He tried what wealth, what wis
dom, what mirth and music, building
Of houses, planting Of vineyards, max
ing of orchards and gardens could do
make a man happy and to keep him So
And he conducted each experiment of
this kind upon the largest scale, and
carried it to its furtherists issue. His
position gave him full command of all
the moons and Instruments Of human
enjoyment, and he exercised that com
mand without limitation or restraint
whatsoever his eyes desired he kept it
not from them; he withheld not his
heart from any kind joy. We are not
to imagine that he did all this at the
prompsing of any higher motive, or
for any religious end. He did it Is
multitudes in lesser spheres and to =
more limited extent are doing ito
crafty abe devices and desires of his
own heart. But he was, all the while,
though unconsciously, fulfilling high
and benevolent purpose of the Supreme
and when afterwards he was brought
to the love and service of God, he was
directed to put on record, Tor the gIi-
dance and warning Of all after genera
tons, ahistory Of his earlier experience

In our estimation, undoubtedly,
storms are as useful in the political
world as in the physical We might
60 further, and say that even the har
Eicane Is necessary at times. And
here We have, in our minds eye that
snfghty tornado, the French revolution
Of 1889, which uprooted the social life
of France, and partly cleared the pol
itical atme sphere Of the whole world.
Of course these disturbances, whether
Of the corrupt political economy Of a
nstion, Or of the stagnant physical at
mosphere of a territory, cannot take
pace without individual suffering;
but to shy that they are unmitigated
evils OF unmixed good is to speak from
passion. Perhaps no event since the
downfall Of Rome ever had 80 marked
an effect Of the destinies OF the world
Is that great French Revolution. 1t
is true that an American would tell us
that the Independence OF the United
States tho advent Of democracy
the precursor of this thorough over
turning of the French poll tical and so
cial kingdom. True; but France had
been ripenins long before, and the
light of American liberty helped but
to reveal her st9te--to show that she
was rotten, even to the core: Since
then, France has had revolution upon
revolution, and, though seemingly now
quiet, is once more ripening for revolt.
1t is nearly twenty years since the
coup d'etat, and the term of twenty
years is the political cycle of the coun-
try. England takes about twice that
period to make one revolution round
the sun Of liberty. She allowed theera to
elapse between the fall of Charles I.
and the abdication of James III. She
revolved once round her orbit after the
French revolution ere she passed the
first Reform Bill, and having once
more completed the cycle, she has
passesl another. Whether we like it
or not and here We merely chronicle
facts democracy, and democracy
alone, is advancing in the political
world. In this movement, the most
stealthy, almost ubiquitous agent is
the press; and in France, the prime
movers in person are the printers
Not so in England. In their trade
societies they have ever eschewed poll
tics, and We believe wisely. In the
coming era they must not be SO reti-
cent. Living so much as they do be-
hind the scenes, they see the wire-draw-
crs' as they are in real life; and being
somewhat critical naturally, they learn
to distrust them. But surely they
9themselves have men whom they could
Ep,t forward, and in whom they could

New Ideals Of Marriage.

.ntf s& ) a
1T is indabitablo that the girls ideal
Of marriage has of late years greatly
changed; and the change has been
produced in part BY what she sees, and
in part by what she reads. We on
tertain no doubt that the female nov
elists vhorhave followed in the wake
.AfAs lac Geo. Laurance have mate
rally modified the ideal Of suit
able lover as entertained by many Of
their sex. 'Ouida,' Miss Broughton,
Miss Annie Thomas, and Others, have
accustomed them to ferocious lovers
but we viii not waste our time in re.
peating description Of physical pecu-
liarites Of the Adonis Of the Period ac-
cording to the standard OF the female
three-volume novel. Every body
knows thu sort Of hero, half Ajax, half
Paris, of their monotonous pages.
Grown-up people may smile at such
absurdities, but girls are very impress
ipabley and, when once they have
aAcpted such an ideal, it il not easy to
expel it from their minds. The person
hardly exists in real life; the nearest
i approach to it being any or every UNI
xprip& palled man who is prepared to

obviously this is not a condition Of
things favorable to marriage; for while
it makes girls more prompt, and in
deed eagar, to flirt, it indisposes them
ytpgappreciate attentions Of more deli
cate but more practical kind. SO
much for the change produced in the
ideals Of women by what they read.
The transformation is completed by
what they see. While silly novels
tell them that lover, to be worth
anything must rail against heaven and
bite the grass with his teeth, the whole
Affap semehts of society keep daily
telling them that husband is no good
sat:sll unless he has q great deal Of

the dog days to do it.. several Democrats.
I'VE will do it," Dir. Garfield But you have
had four years since the awful imminent dan
ger arising from that question which threatened
this country, and you have waited until this
last session, and the last few weeks of the Res
sion, and all at once it is an important topic.
The summer is past and the harvest ended and
that soul is not saved, and there is no hope that
it can be saved by this Congress. 1 know there
are seventeen hundred bills pending, and am
sure that many of them ought to become laws,
but l am equally sure that if we stay until
Septemb Der there will be twenty seven hundred,
with large pi Oportion that ought TO become
laws. Every argument used to-day can be next
September with exactly the same force and
effect. = This Congress has been here six
months, and we are outstaying the welcome of
the American people.
Mr. McMillan-Speak for yourself.
MIR. Garfield speak for myself and the
body that thinks as / do. The Sd of June next
the Presidential cyclone will strike the people,
and in the course of few weeks it will in
volve both political parties and forty-fve
millions of people, and if we stay IN the scope
of that Cyclone, we will convert this body into
a vast political debating club, and would not
give ono days legislation now for two months
of such legislation as that period would bring
upon the country. l wish to ask the gentle
men if they are willing to stay here into that
cyclone ana past II, and convert this whole
body, in presence of the whole country, into
political camps making political speeches.
Mr.. Stevenson called attention to the fact
that the committee on electoral count had re-
ported bill regulating the counting of the
vote, and that the bill was now on the cal
endar.
At the close of the debate the House adopted,
by vote of u to II, the concurrent resolution
to end the session on the 31st inst.
A Of L,,IJ
in the afternoon, resolved that this vote should
be reconsidered.
