The Young Widow.

she is modest, but not bashful,
Free and easy, but not bold
Like an apple, ripe and mellow,
Not too young and not too old;
Half inviting, half repulsing,
Now advancing, and now shy
There is mischief in her dimple,
There is danger in her eye.
She has studied human nature
She is schooled in all her arts
She has taken her diploma
AS the mistress of all hearts.
She can tell the very moment
When to sigh and when to smile
Oh, maid is sometimes charming,
But a widow all the while.
Are you sad? How very serious
Will her handsome face become
Are you angry? She is wretched,
Lonely, friendless, fearful, dumb.
Are you mirthful? ? How her laughter,
Silver sounding, will ring out !
She can lure and catch and play yeu
As the angler does the trout.
You old achelors of forty
Who have grown so bold and wise,
Young A nericans of twenty,
With the love looks in their eyes,
You may practice all the lessons
Taught by Cupid since the fall,
But know little widow
Who could win and fool you all.

Beginning in the World.

To place boy where he will do we'll
in life is no longer an easy matter. Op-
portunities are comparatively few, while
boys are legion. Yet it must be done,
and after months Of anxious thought a
lad is bestowed not perhaps according
to his liking, but where opportunity Of
fers. His destiny then rests with him
self, and on the way in which he begins
business depends much of his failure or
success for m nnood. Ii he has been a
petted boy with plenty of leisure time
and holiday enjoyment, his life on which
he now enters presents some features
which are in lively contrast to his past
experience. Perhaps the boy has gone
to be with sharp and grasping en-
ployer, who will work him from seven
or eight in the morning until we'll into
the evening hours, giving him only a
few dollars week for his service. Com
mon report says that there are such
men in the world, and that an under
paid and over-worked boy is required
to render as much service as an able
bodied and fairly paid man. Perhaps it
is because such men know how it was in
their own boyhood, when they did hard
work for poor Fay, that they want to
take it out of the boys of the present
oan tioy, onI <ooob tooxo - Loax L..
dens. 1t is an unpleasant experience
for young man to bear burdens which
are too heavy or too hard. Yet it fits
him for other burdens which he mus
bear during manhood. Nobody who is
of any account ever got along without
bearing some burdens and enduring
many disagreeable things. The more
clearly the young man understands this
when he sets out on his business career
the surer is his road to prosperity.
There are boys and young men who are
beginning business who think that be-
cause their pay is small tleir work is of
little Importance. Therefore they per-
form their duties in slipshod manner
caring little as to whether they give sat
isfaction or not. A youth who thus
conducts himself stands in the way of
his own advancement. He has very
narrow view of the possibilities in store
for the coming years. He who has
keen eye to the future will look sharply
and closely to the interests of his en-
ployer, for in SO doing he is regarding
his own.

she was was child, and was devotedly
attached to her. How they plotted

An AstOniShingFact.

We do not realize that we are grow
ing old until it has become an accom-
plished fact. Children grow up around
us, but we get used to that, and seldom
stop to compute their ages and realize
the swift flight of years. In fact, our
children never get old to us. The wife
who has stood SO lovingly and faithfully
at our side SO long, never changes, and
is always the fair young bride of the old
and happy days. And SO with the hus-
band-to the wife. Though his hair
might have grown gray in some way
which we do not understand, and his
firm step may seem little less elastic
or firm than it was, the husband does
not seem to have changed much after
all. The friends of our youth become
gray-headed;yet they are not old. Some
one-he may have been philosopher
has said that if we doubt whether we
are really growing old. we should look
in the face of friend whom we have
not seen for twenty years. The writer
tried that few days ago. He did more;
he looked in the face of friend whom
he had not seen for nearly forty years.
What his thoughts Of him were he does
not know. They were both too polite
to express their thoughts. He knows
that he kept wondering. and wonders
yet, what had happened to his friend
that he should look so very old. 1t was
shock to him, and brought him face to
face with an unwelcome fact.
The total population of Paris is now

HOW 1T WAS CLEARED UP.

1t was nearly three o'clock when Mr..
Gwinnet, who was hardly ever known
to be in hurry, hustled into the front
office with check in his hand.
"Here, Kendall" calling me from my
desk, 81 must have the money on this
before the bank closes, and there isn't
a moment to lose."
Iclapped on my hat, took the check
and was off. The paying teller, as I
entered the bank, already had his thumb
on the spring which held up the small
sash with its pane of ground glass which
was accustomed to drop every day so
exactly at the instant the hand of the
bank clock pointed to three, that one
might have supposed the same machin-
cry governed both.
"You're just in time," said the pune
tual official.
Sand that only after sharp run on
you," answered.
The bad joke was either unnoticed or
treated with contempt. The money
was counted out in silence, the spring
touched and the sash fell.
Within half block I encountered
Elnathan Ganche, a fellow. clerk, has
tening to meet me.
"Mr. Gwinnet was obliged to take
the first train to B." said Elnathan,
"and couldn't wait your return. Another
train leaves half an hour later, and he
wishes you to follow on that with the
money"
"Where will he stop in B--w
"Oh, I had nearly forgotten to tell
you that. At the - House."
A glance at my watch showed that
had no time to spare. A smart walk
brought me to the depot, whence the
train started soon after had taken my
seat.
1t was night when 1 stepped from
the train at -. A touch on the
shoulder made me turn quickly.
"Your name is Kendall" said sharp
visaged, keen-eyed man, in mixed
tone of question and assertion.
+, SIT is" I answered.
"George Kendall"
bowed stiffly, thinking the stranger
a little inquisitiIe.
He held up his finger and a couple
of policemen approached.
"You must accompany these gentle
men and myself" said the sharp-visaged
man.
''May I ask why" returned.
"You shall learn in good time" re-
piled the other. "You might find it
embarrassing to receive the explanation
here"
A hack was called, which all four of
us entered without further parley, which
l saw was useless. After rapid drive
of several minutes we alighted before q
building with bright light over the
door. The sharp-featured man imme.
diately entered, followed by the two
policemen and myself.
Aman in uniform took down my name,
age and such other particulars as sup
pose it is usual to note on such occa.
sions. Next I was put through rigid
search. Among other effects found
upon me was, of course, the roll of
bills had drawn from the bank.
Perhaps you can explain how you
came by these" remarked the sharp
featured man dryly.
Certainly" I answered; II drew
them at the - bank to-day on my en-
ployer's, Mr.. Gwinnet's check, with
which he sent me to the bank for that
purpose"

my questioner, s'that after pettino the

Recipes.

RECEIPT FOR THE PUDDING. One pint
of milk, four eggs, two cups of flour,
one teaspoonful of salt. This is most
delicious and savory dish. It should
be yellow brown when done.
ROAST BEEF WITH YORKSHIRE PuD-
DINa.-Set your beef to roast upon
grating or upon sticks laid across the
dripping pan. Thee quarters of an
hour before the pudding is done mix
your pudding and put into the pan
under the dripping roast. When done,
cut the pudding and lay around the
meat. after it is dished.
To Cook STEAK.-Never fry it in
grease or water. If you have no broiler
handy, or your fire will not admit of
broiling, take your splitter or skillet,
heat very hot, put your steak in, the
moment it is scared on one side turn it
quickly; let it heat through, then take
it up on hot dish, season it quickly,
and serve hot. We insure, if the steak
be tender, thick and juicy, and you fol-
low these directions to the letter, you
will have "steak fit for the gods."
Never touch lard or water to steak in
cooking, and ne"er season until done,

In rotating vegetables the land should
not be used for crops having similar
ity to those preceding them. Cabbages,
for instance, should follow peas, and
celery follow cabbages.
Red raspberries should be set two
feet apart in rows, and wheu kept well
worked the first year they will fill up
and form continuous hedge of plants
good for ten years or more.
Cabbages respond quickly to frequent
hoeing. It is one of the crops upon
which too much labor cannot be bestow-
ed. They should be cultivated often,
even when there are no weeds among
them.
To prevent sows from crushing their
young, nail board about one foot wide

An Heroic Trapper.

A man named Brannan, who has been trap.
ping in the mountains about II miles north Of
Paisley, froze his feet badly while going from
town to his cabin. He broke through the ice
on his way home, and the weather being in
tensely cold, his moccasins froze to his feet
so that he could not get them of. This
occurred on the l4th of February. For
about two weeks he kept his feet in snow.
No help was within reach, and he lay there
all alone, being compelled to do his own
cooking, and to procure wood to keep from
freezing to death. The wood he got by crawl
ing out on his hands and knees and pulling
it into camp with rope around his shoulders.
About ten days ago sheep herder had his
flock in that vicinity, and by yelling Justify
Brannan managed to make himself heard. He
was made as comfortable as possible, and the
man then went to Paisley for assistance to
get him out. horse was sent to him and
he was brought to town and a physician sent
for. DIR. Cason tells us that his feet are bad
ly frozen up to his ankles--Lakerie,e
