It is related of President Garfield
that having great fancy and curlos-
ity to know the history OF things
about the White House, and as there
was no tradition concerning an alabas-
ter clock surmounted by statuette of
the Muse of History, in this case sill
ent as to her own, a clock which had
licked in the White House, time out
of mind, he set Secretary Blaine to
rummaging through the ancient doc
uments of the White House. The
search was amply rewarded, disclos
ing, as it did, that the time piece, one
of the most beautiful in Washington,
was a present from Bonaparte to La
fayette, who gave it, in turn, to
Washington, who decreed that it
should be handed down to his sue
cessors in the Presidential office.

How TO Cook Rice

Rice is becoming amuch more pop
ular article Of food than heretofore.
1t is frequently substituted for pota-
toes at the chief meal of the day, be-
ing more nutritious and more easily
digested At its present cost, it is
relatively cheaper than potatoes, oat-
meal or grain-grits of any kind. In
preparing it only, just enough cold
water should be poured on to pre-
vent the rice from burning ut the bot
tom OF the pot, which should have a
q close-ftting cover. and with mod
crate FIRE the rice j. steamed rather
than boiled until it is nearly done;
then the cover is taken Of, and the
surplus stdam and moisture allowed
T. escape, and the rice turns out
mass Of snow-wh.te keIrals, each sep
arate from the othei snd as much
superior to the usual saggy mass as
a fine meally potato Is superior to the
wateI- soaked article.

CARLYLE Attends Church.

The second part of Carlyle's pos
thumous "Reminiscences OF my Irish
Journey" in the June Century, con
tains much comment on the social
and religious life of the Irish. He
describes a church service as follows:
Church service; clean congrega-
ton of 40; red-halred young Irish
person, who is very evidently "per-
forming" the service. Decency eve
nv where; poor little decent Church
with the tombs round it, and tree
or two shading it, ION the top of n
high rough-green bank with brook
at the bottom): service here accord
ing to the natural English method,
''decently performed" I felt how de-
cent English Professionals, or the sons
of such, might with Jealous affection
like to assemble here once week,
and remind themselves of English
purities and decencies and gospel
ordinances, in the midst of black
bowling Babel of superstitious savag-
ery-like Hebrews sitting by the
streams of Babel but I feel more
clearly than ever how impossible it
was that an extraneous son of Adam,
first seized by the terrible conviction
that he had a soul to be saved or
damned, that he must rede the riddle
of this universe or 60 to perdition
everlasting, could for moment think
of taking this respectable perform
ance" as the solution of the mystery
for him! Oh, Heaven, never in this
world! Weep we by tho streams of
Babel, decent clean English Irish;
weep for there is cause, till you can
do something better than weep; but
expect no Babylonian or any other
mortal to concern himself with that
affair of yours! And on the whole 1
would recommend you rather to give
up the weeping" to take to working
out your meaning rather than weep
ing it. No sadder truth presses it.
self upon one than thenecessity there
will soon be; and the call there every
where already is, to quit these old ru-
brics and give up these empty per
formances altogether.
