At this interesting point they

ance of Edwin Webb, who could
hardly conceal his laughter at the
tnrn affairs had taken.
We'll, Cousin May, have yon
forgiven mo yet? Had it not
been for me, you would never
appreciated each other so much.
What do you say, t1erald-do you
not owe me many thanks?
Gerald looked at May, and re-
piled:
Yes, Edwin; | do owe you
many thanks for we should never
have known the depth Of our
affection for each other if it had
not been for our QUARREL
My advice to you is to get her
home as soon as possible to
change her wet clothing,' said
Edwin, who was Of a practical
turn of mind.
His advice was so good that
they accepted it without a ques'
ton, and all started for the Hall,
two hearts filed to overlooking
with happiness.

SLIPPERY COURFSH1PS.
Has May come 2


Yes, Bertha. | have slowed
her away safe and sound in the
carriage
And Mr.. Webb, Of Framington
Hall, busted himself in lifting va
rious parcels, bags, &C., from the
old family carriage.
While so engaged he did not
perceive the antics of bis irreprcs'
sible son, who was capering about
the road in the vain end"avor 10
catch a glimpse Of his cousin Mays
face.
Ae last Mr.. Webb assisted his
niece to alight, in response to her
impatient remark, that he was
going to keep her there all day
She was q slender, delicate girl
of about eighteen summers, with
soft, pearly complexion, and
great laughing brown eyes: her
hair fell in ringlcts about brr
shoulders, and looked like show
er Of gold as the setting sun lit up
the darker shadows of her nut
brown hair. She was the orphan
niece Of Mr.. Webb, aud had been
brought up entirely at u faShiona-
bic boarding-scbool. On the COM
pletion Of her education she came
to her uncle's home in accordance
with the wish of her mother but
Nav did not like the idea Of re-
siding in q dull, stupid country
place. as she described it.
She was speedily made welcome
by her aunt aud cousins, who had
collected at the garden gate, all
impatience to see her.
Mrs. Webb was a gentle, placid
lady, With a kind: motherly man
ner very comforting to the stran-
ger. Her cousin Bertha was a
very pretty girl. Her hair was
fastened into a careless knot be-
hind that became her wonderfully.
Edwin came next, and it did not
take May many minutes to learn
that he was the most incorrigible
tease she had ever met. He was
a good-looking fellow, with a tall
we'll knit figure.
well, May, l suppose your mind
is filled with rapture at the thought
of spending your future days in
this country place?' said Edwin,
| looking, with a teasing smile, at
his cousin, who was leaning against
one of the columns, covered with
ivy, that supported the vcrandah,
\ shadow fell over der bri light
face as she replied warmly

Edwin laughed slightly, AL,

quietly:
is that true, Miss May?'
She shot g. withering glance at
Edwin, and replied Yes in low
tone.
Gerald changed color, rose ao-
ruptly, and badc them all good
night. He kept bis eyes stu
diously averted from May as he
came to her side ; then be went
hastily away.
After he had gone, May went
upstairs to her room, too sad and
mortified to remain with the tam-
lily.
Oakland did not come to the
Hall for some time after that !;
but he treated May with mark
ed GOODNESS that panied her ex-
cessively, although she, true to
her womanly instincts, retained
her gay, coquettisb manner STILL
The months passed swiftly on,
till, before any one realized 1t,
winter had come with it's keen,
frosty breath.
Then came the liveliest time for
the young people, and May soon
learned to be Skillful in skating,
as she was in waltzipg, and al
most every day her slight, grace
ful figure could be seen fitting as
lightly as bird over the ice.
1t was clear, cold day in Jan
uary, and May accompanied by
her cousins, set out for Glenwood
Brook, which was situated about
two miles from their homo. They
had not gone tar before they
were overtaken by Oakland, who
came along whistling, his skates
sIung over his shoulder.
'Ah, Oakland; just the fellow
ed! You help May along, and
will take care Of Bertba,' ex
claimed Edwin, who good ma
turedly wished to bring the es
stranged couple together.
Thus addressed, Gerald coulc
not do otherwise than offer his
services to May, who accepted
them nonchalantly enough: al
though her heart was beating
loudly at the same time.
The pond was large one, anc
soon May and Gerald found them
selves quite separated from the
rest Of the party.
She started along fearlessly
and was making for the opposite
bank, when Gerald called, out anx

DO not 60 too near that bank
for there is a swift current under

Curing Hams.

The following recipe can be relied upon
in dry curing hams: For eighty pounds
of ham nicely trimmed, take one pint
Onondago or rock salt,one ounce of salt
petre (nitre of potash) one-quarter pound
brown sugar; mix well together, and
thoroughly rub the hams, leaving them
flesh side up. After "a hours rub again
with one quart of salt, one ounce of salt
cc.re, one quarter pound sugar. Let
them lie ten days and smoke to suit.
FOR A PICKLE FOR HAMS OR BEEF.
We have used the following to our
entire satisfaction for many years:
Pack the hams when cold in clean
barrel, sprinkling on the bottom of the
barrel and over the hams, flesh side up,
about one pound of Turks Island salt to
the hundred pounds of ham then pour
over a pickle made of five pounds of salt
one ounce of saltpetre, two ounces saler-
atus, one pint good molasses, with water
enough to cover the hams four to five
inches, boiled and skinned when cold.

Relative Cost of Corn and Pork.

When corn is worth so cents per
bushel, it pays to convert it into pork If
the latter sells for three dollars per one
hundred pounds. With corn at forty
cents, pork should sell at four dollars per
hundred pounds; corn at fifty cents,
pork five dollars, and so on, adding one
dollar to pork for every increase of ten
cents per bushel in corn. This is the
estimate placed on the relative prices of
these two articles by the Prairie Farmer.
If the pork sells for less than is repre-
sented by the corresponding price in
corn, it is fed at loss if more, the ad-
vance is profit-in each case regarding
the manure as pay for the trouble.
