A Presidents Fortune.

The report that President Hayes left the White House with considerable fortune is authoritatively denied by the Cleveland Herald, which states that his salary the four years was $200, GOO, and the expenses $134,0O0 Had Con- gress refunded the $4,0O0 he paid for the expenses of the visiting states men" to Louisiana, his savings would have been about $7O, ,O0O. AS it is, he went out of office with $66, 900 to be carried from his account as President to the benefit of his account as 8 pri. vate eitizen. When he became Presi. dent, he was burdened with debts to the amount of $90,O00, mostly on ac, count of bequests charged upon the Birchard estate. Of this amount he has paid $o0, ,O0O out of his savings from the Presidential salary, so that the net available result in cash of his Presiden tial term is $6, eco.

How to Make Blanc Mango.

Blanc-mange is dainty dish, which is so easily made and so inviting that it is surprising to see how few know how to make it. To one pint of sweet milk take handful of Irish moss, look it over carefully if after washing it in one water any of it is dark colored re- move it; rinse in several waters until it is perfectly clean, then put it in a wide muslin bag, and when the milk is hot put the bag into it and let it boil until it is thick it takes only a few min utes; give your whole attention to it, as there is danger of the milk burning on to the basin or pail in which you cook it. The only safe way is to set the basin or pail in kettle of hot water. Sweeten and flavor to suit your taste. Pour it into mould to cool, and i'll a short time it will be ready for use. Ii is nourishing, easily digested, suitable for m invalid; it is also very nieo fol tea, served with peaches, pineapple ol jelly. Of course the prettier the mould the more attractive it will appear. 4 very pretty design is that of an ova

ROOrbGck.

A correspondent referring to recent version of the origin of the word Roor- back as applied to political invention, gives the following account as the one that he has always heard:
 "Nathan Guilford, one of our onco we'll known citizens, still remembered as father of cur common schools, etc. !, was an active Whig politician, and edi- tor of an energetic Whig paper, tue name of which have forgotten.
 "On April 1 of certain year he pub lished @ circumstantlal account of ex- periments by German chemist named Roorback. Roorback had been exam ming the chemical constituents of eggs of different birds, supposing it might be possible st last to compound a hatchable egg. According to the story, after putting many of his manufactured eggs to tho animal heat of different pa- tient mothers, he at last happily suc- ceeded in matching one egg, and pro duced living bird. The story then goes on to describe very infinitely the strange creature, anatomically, phys ologically, and every other w"y, imi tating the scientific style used in simi lar cases. The story read very well and was copied into many other papers and after going the rounds of the pres in all parts of the United States, it wa at last (after three or four months) dis covered to have been first published ol the first of April.
 "The Enquirer, of Cincinnati, (Dem ocratic) immediately fixed upon Fathe Guilford the name of Roorback, whicl was thereafter held to mean politica liar, although the story had nothing t do with politics. Being we'll stuck tc the name became at last pretty wel known in the political field as Old Rooi | hack

A Substitute for Pickles.

Sometimes one calculates wrong in regard to the quantity of pickles neceB- sary to last until "green leaves come again" and so at this time of the year is obliged to buy pickles, which prove to be poor and expensive and no sub- stitute whatever to the appetite of the adult whose palate has ceased to be pleased with !" boughten things. If cabbage can be procured really good pickle can be made with it. Here are two rules Slice and boil until tender three heads of cabbage, as for coldslaw add little salt and vinegar to the water in which they are boiled. When done take out and spread on plates and drain off the vinegar and water. Then put in Q jar and pour warm, fresh vine gar over. Sweeten to taste; celery seed and mustard are good to season with. For the other kind of pickle select nice firm head of cabbage. After re- moving the outside leaves, and inspect ing it carefully to see that there are nc worms or bugs, shave it very fine, and put it in jar, sprinkle salt and pepper over it, and spice if you choose; rec pepper sliced and put in is good. Poul over it enough cold vinegar to cover it This will be ready for use ill about thre' days.

Whit they Come to.

"Few New York boys" writes 0 correspondent of an exchange, "com- paratively speaking, learn trades, and most of our workmen come from other parts. The old-fashioned system of ap- prenticeships has ceased, and bosses only hire boys for short time and dis charge them when work slackens, Under such circumstances 1t is not easy to learn trade. The streets of New York city supply the ranks of crime with inexhaustible recruits. The boys grow up into the 'cannibals, the row dies, the short boys, and the dead rabbits,' and if they do not speedily reach prison, they very soon deserve it. The condition of these boys is among the shadows which darlzen the picture of New York life, but that of the girls Is much worse. Their condition at best is one extremely pitiable, but what it is at worst shall not attempt to describe. At best they become the hands of the shops. You can see them by seven in the morning, hurrying to their work, i'll clad, and bearing the aspect not only of extreme poverty, but also of degrada- ton. do not mean by this term the appearance of vice (which these shop girls rarely displny), but that debase- ment of the countenance which arises from long experience of penury, from short supplies of food, from constant warning with necessity, from hopeless conflict with an evil destiny, and from the self lf-consciousness of their forlorn condition"

Vouclling for a Friend.

An old and respected citizen in q country town in Virginia, being q member of the Masonic lodge, WAS visited by committee of that body, md the accusation preferred against him that he made too free use of the bottle, which the committee informed him was inconsistent with the character of good Mason. The old gentleman stoutly denied the accusation, and in- sisted that the committee should go with him to the postofIice, as he was sure that the testimony of Captain p, the postmaster, with whom he had been long intimate, would exoner- ate him from the charge. Accordingly, accompanied by the committee, he went to get the evidence of his friend, when the following conversation was had:
 "Captain," says he, "you have known me for long time?''
 "Yes," said the captain; "nigh on te thirty years"
 "Well, captain, I think I can say that during all that tirne have hardly ever taken drink that you have no j'iued 2"
 "That is about correct" said th' captain.
 "Now, captain, want you to tel these gentlemen if in all that time yo1 ever saw me when you thought I hat moro than I could carry"
 We'll" said the captain, 1T don think ever did; but I have seen yo many a time when I thought that would have been better if you had mad two tlips with your load"

lifted up his soul with vanity nor sworn deceitfully. You say that means re- ligion. say it means misftness for q true wedding as sure as it means any thing under heaven.
 EQUALS IN ALL THINGS.
 I can enter into no particulars. l can only say to the young man that what he calls seeing life may very often be called seeing death rather, and the building closet to keep skeleton in the Holy of Holies. Purity and truth toward each other from the day you plight your troth to the day you die are also the sure foundations on which @ true marriage rests. touch no i'm passable mountain peak of purity when tell you this, and I touch no slime of indelicacy. I only say that true love is as pure and delicate always as it is when the heart is first snnitten with the sweet pang, in which we find this is the man and this the woman we have been looking for, md as the good Bishop Hugo used to say, though he lived in what we ccll the Dark Ages, the true wife and mother with the true husband and father always stand in their origi- nal purity before God md the angels. Then there IS one more question which touches us with its unrest and always will make trouble, IS 1t should. The woman is still placed by law and cus- tom on the footstool while the man is on the throne, while they should "sit side by side full summed in all their powers" That day will come, and un- til 1t does come we must keep it's warn ing star shining through our own win dows. They are the great races who give @ great place to the mother and wife. And when we do this the woman is the rare exception who does not prove worthy the place. No man can begin to solve the problems of life by himself alone outdoors, even, let alone indoors. When Joseph Fry proposed to Elizabeth Gurney and she rejected him, he got 8 good old Quaker to speak Q good word for him, and after he had spoken it he said, "What message shall I carry now from thee to Joseph? Is there any hope ?" "Only in this," Elizabeth said, "that 8 woman always holds her self free to change her mind" "The1. thee will have him." her ancient friend concluded, "and I will tell him tocome right along" He came and she became Elizabeth Fry, and that was the last oi changing her mind. She grew to be c great women because her husband gave her great space and would not be con. tent that she should not fill it. Every man, we used to say in the "Dales, has to ask his wife whether he shall gel along, and our friend, Mrs. Payser used to say that she saved one-quartel of the living and earned another quar
 ter, and say if would be 9 grand facto1 i'll thls agreement between the man ant woman that they should stand on DOT

CuItivating Wild Rice.

The Canadian Government are said to be trying to cultivate and stimulate the growth of the plant known as "wild rice" in all the inland waters of the Dominion. It is now found in many ponds, lakes and rivers of Canada nearly to the Arctic Circle. It grows annually from seed, and induces the presence of enormous focks of wild fowl in the autumn, which visit these rice lakes and extensive beds for food. In Lake Erie, it grows in water six to eight feet deep, and millions of rice birds, as we'll as ducks and other water fowl, resort there, and afford fine shooting. Sports men's clubs are also taking means to extend its growth, as it attracts game of all kinds. In Rice Lake, where il grows prolically, it has been cut be- fore seed-time by manufacturers, who find it's fibre, taken from the under sur. face of the water to a depth of six ol seven feet, to be very valuable. | affords, it is said, the strongest kind o fibre known for making bank not' parchment paper.

WELL PROVIDED FoR.-Ihe Vienna papers say that tho Princess Dolgo- rouka, the morganntic wife of the late Czar, arrived in Vienna from St. Peters burg on Wednesday morning, the 10th ultimo, and went on the same day with her three children to Italy. The ex- press train takes fifty-lline hours and three.quarters to traverse tho interval between Vienna and St. Petersburg, and it was therefore calculated that the Princess must have left St. Petersburg two hours after her husbands death. She no doubt availed herself of the gen. eral confusion to quit the Winter Palace unnoticed, and traversed Russia under a false name. Her fear was that she would be put into a convent and sepa- rated from her children. Her future is very sufficiently assured, there being over a6,000,000 sterling lodged to he, credit in Berlin bank. The last de posit of &1, 200, 900 was lodged in thu bank only three weeks before the Czar' [ death.

A Hard Winter.

With many of the settlers of the Northwest the past winter has been 8 prolonged struggle for existence against the elements. A German farmer two years ago took up 1G0 acres of land near Big Lake, Dakota. Last year he raised wheat on 60 acres, getting 25 bushels to the acre, and received $1, 900 for it. Laying in what he considered an ample supply of fuel out of these pro- ceeds, he sat his house in order for the winter. Two other families decided to leave their own houses and to lodge with hun as measure of mutual protection and comfort. Very soon the ample sup ply of fuel was all consumed, and the three families had to bestir themselves to keep from freezing. They dug rail road ties and telegraph posts out of the deep snow and burned them. After this source of supply had been exhaust ed, the two families that had quilted their own houses were compelled to take part in tearing them down and the woodwork went the way of the other fuel. Next followed tho furniture. A neighbor named Becker finally har- messed five strong horses to sleigh to force his way to ths nearest railway sta. tion for load of coal. He was caught in @ snowdrift, and two days later was found frozen stiff in his sleigh, his dog, dead, lying upon him, and the five horses standing dead in their tracks. His body was taken to his family, nail ed up in box, and placed in the grain loft to be kept there until the ground should thaw sufficiently and allow of his burial. Another family of the neigh borhood was saved from starvation by making soup Of au ox-skin.

THE TRAMP .LN THE GARDEN.

4 HA 4 II d1H1 IN II1h TAID.hAN In garden full of fairest bloom, Full of little hooks of scented gloom, There were roses crimson, pink, and white. Lilies as the moonshine cool and light, Heliotropo and sweetest mignonette- Perfect flowers in perfect beauty set.
 Suddenly amid this beauty rose A coarse weed-the ugliost weed that grows Spread itself among the lilies fair,
 Wandered mid the roses everywhere, Till rich carnation proudly bent,
 Asked the vulgar vagrant what it meant. "Mean, indeed" thessaucy weed replied " Just to wonder where shall decide. I've as strong and true right as you To the sunshine and the wind and dew; And to tell the truth, it seems to mo I'm as good as any flower see. "I have life, and why should not go, If I like it, where the roses blow2 I've right" The gardiner, passing by, Puled the weed up with an angry sigh, Flung 1t far outside and who shall blame?- Neither use nor beauty could it claim.
