FRIED CABBAGE.

Cut the cabbage very fine, on slaw
cutter, if possible; salt and pepper, stir
well, and let stand five minutes. Have
an iron kettle smoking hot, drop one tea
spoonful Of lard into it, then the cabbage,
stirring briskly until quite tender; send
to the table Immediately. An agreeable
change is toput halfa cup of sweet cream
and three tablespoons of vinegar-the
vinegar added after the cream has been
well stirred-into the cabbage and after
taken from the stove. When properly
done, an invalid can eat it without inju-
ry, and there is no offensive odor from
cooking.

THE MAN TO HONOR.

II ~ this world there lives a man
More abjcct than another.
lis he who will for selfish ends
Bctray n friend or brother.
NO meaner, baser soul
Can earth's vile novels nourish.
NO haunts of vice 50 vile and dark
In which he would not flourish.
An, who would think that selfish aims
would make man a liar
ana lot the nceling glow Of fame
Would risk eternal fire.
blli DAY by day We learn the fact
mat men are double dealing:
That some viii seek to gain by crar
What Others gain by stealing.
some tNtre are whose souls are cram'd
with put-on Christian graces,
VINO wear daunatiOn in their hearts,
salvation in their faces
The true in hcarl are hard TO find
And truth is under cover:
The more yOu seek for honest men
The Fewer you discover.
The ranks Of social life are filed
With vain dissimulAtiUn,
Where every artiiice is used
To gain but admiration.
But All their arrogance and pride,
No odds how sweet or bitter,
When sifted down tn r al worth
Is little less than glitter.
We find that truth Is but robe
Put on and of n pleasure,
The man who ncars the lunge I face
Can give the shortest measure.
Hypocrisy the world detests
Ana scornS the rich who moulds il;
And yet this wOuld-be honest world
With open arms upholds il.
Give me the man whose hand is true,
Whose heart is faithful ever;
Who has soul that's MT upheld
By an all-selfsh lever
who speaks and acts An honest part,
No matter whats the trial,
And who for manhood's sake alone,
Can suffer s,li-denial

Dressing Finely on 5000 Year.
Boston Transcript.

In London a young man who wishes to
be swell goes to tailor, offering him
$500 year to clothe him. The tailor
keeps him supplied with new suits as
fast as the swell returns the old ones,
which he cannot keep more than a
month. They are but little if any worn
and the tailor sells them readily to ready
mace clothing houses. At the end ofthe
year the tailor has made 5000 from the
swell, besides the profit on the sale OF
the clothes, and the swell has dressed
exquisitely at small expense.

A Japanese Hotel.

In imagining a Japanese hotel, good
reader, please dismiss all architectural
ideas derived from the Continental or
Fifth Avenue. Our hotels in Japan,
outwartlly, at least, are wooden struct-
ures, two stories high, often but one.
Their roofs are usually thatched, though
the city caravansaries are tiled. They
are entirely open on the front ground
floor, and about six feet from the sill or
threshold rises o platform about a foot
and half high, updAwhich may be seen
the proprietor, seated on his heels, busy
with his account books. If it is winter,
he is engaged in that absorbing occupa.
ton of all Japanese tradesmen at that
time of the year, warming his hands over
charcoal fire in o low brazier. The
kitchen is usually just next to the front
room, often separated from the street by
only a latticed partition. In evolving a
Japanese kitchen out of his or her imag.
nation the reader must cast away the
rising conception of Bridget's realm.
Blissful, indeed, is the thought as we
enter the Japanese hotel that neither the
typical servant girl nor the American
nOlel ClGrh Is IO De IOuuu mere. lue
landlord comes to meet us, falling on his
hands and knees, bows his head to the
floor. One or two of the pretty girls out
of the bevy usually seen in the japanese
hotels comes to assist us and take our
traps. Welcomes, invitations and plen-
ty OF fun greet us as we sit down to take
off our shoes, as all good Japanese do,
and as those filthy foreigners don't, who
tramp on the clean mats with muidy
boots. We stand up unshod, and are
led by the laughing girls along the
smooth corridors, across an arched
bridge which spans an open space in
which is rookery, garden and pond
stocked with goldfish, turtles and ma
rine plants. The room which our fair
guides choose for us is at the rear end Of
the house, overlooking the grand seen
cry for which Kauozan is justly noted
all over the empire. Ninety-nine valleys
are said to be visible from the mountain
top on which the hotel is situated, and
we suspect that multiplication by ten
would scarcely be an exaggeration. A
world Of blue water and pines, and tho
detailed lovellness of the rolling land,
form picture which lack power to
paint with words. The water seemed
the type OF repose, the earth OF motion.

Creatures of Circumstance.

"I suppose you had always a great
fancy for surgery" people often used to
say to Sir Benjamin Brodie, the great
English surgeon of the day. The truth
was tnat he had no more taste for it
than fop for pole-cat. He went into
the business because there was nothing
else for him to do. 1t is not at all prob
BILE that the elder Bennett ever had any
youthful aspirations in tho direction Of

Shook,

1t will be remembered that when
| President Garfield was shot, he imme-
diately sank to the ground; his tenn
perature descended below the normal
standard, and the pallor OF death settled
on his features
Had tins condition gone little furth-
er, the heart would have ceased its
| beating.
This was what they call shock.
1t was not caused by fright, nor by
any effect ON the feelings. il was pure
" physical. 1t is often among the most
dangerous effects Of accident. Indeed,
many a person has died Of an accidental
physical injury who would have fully
recovered could the body have rallied
from the shock
Precisely wherein the shock consists
it is difficult to say. 1t leems to be
somewhat analogous to the effect of
blow on the head, which instantly, and
for time, arrests consciousness and the
power of motion.
Light depends on certain wave-like
movement IN the molecules of ether :;
and sound on similar movement in the
molecules OF air. Now, to touch vi
brating bell, or musical string, as once
arrests the sound.
So it is thought that all nervous action
depends on like uudulation in the mo.
lecules of the nerve substance, and n
powerful disturbing cause, acting sud-
denly, somehow arrests, partially or
wholly, these movements back even to
the nerve centers,
Every case of shock involves danger
the danger that the vital organs, cut
off from the force that works them, may
cease to act. What is needed in such
cases is to stimulate the heart Youths
