Frying EEKH.

What is the reason that so few cooks,
and even housekeepers, know how to
fry fish? Why will they persist in
frying them brown or hard, and some
times to coal2 A person must have
the delicacy of taste of the ostrich, and
its digestive powers, too, to eat such a
fearful preparation. Fish, when large
enough, including rockfsh, bass, perch;
trout, salmon, ETC., should invariably
be boiled, if one desires the full flavor
of the fish in it's most delicate form,
when it is highly nutritious and whole
some But there are certain fish toe
moist to boil, such as the shad, white
fish, Spanish mackerel, etc. These
should be broiled carefully, and they
are in perfection. Certain persons
think that this can be done only over
hickory Goals, or on plank. former.
lv thought 80, too, but I have got ovel
this fsstidiousness, after trial upon trial
fortified by the opinion of those who
have dined with us many times. Or
two occasions we had 6ve-pound shad
cooked, one by wood Goals on plank
and the other over anthracite Goals in {
common range, and no person present
was able to tell the difference. It il
all nonsense to go to the trouble to pro
vide hickory Goals and plank for a sha6

not fit to eat, the flavor being gone

A FoRGETFUL CHIEF JUSTICE.

Chief Justice Jones of New York was
so fond of society that he never de-
clined an Invitation to dinner or to an
evening party. But fhis Honor" was
forgetful and an over-worked pan, and
his desk at home, where he studied his
cases, was loaded with papers of the
most miscellaneous character. When
the desk could hold no>more he would
put the papers into basket, and then
the process of accumule4ion would go
on as before.
One day the Chief Justice, needing a
certain paper, rummaged through the
well-6lled basket and found an invita-
tion to party. That evening he dressed
himself, and, about 9 o'clock, walked
into the house of his friend arrayed in
white kids, white cravat. swallow-tailed
coat, and in the other essentials of a
party suit.
On being ushered into. the parlor he
found, to his surprise, the host sitting
there alone, reading his paper, but no
signs Of party.
~Tm afraid I have made a mistake,
sir, said the Chief Justice, after the
cordial greeting of his friend.
eff you have" was the courteous re-
ply, II am obliged to the mistake, for it
has given me the honor of your compa-
n.y."
"But haven't you party to-night?"
mo, sir"
@Is not that from You, sir7" asked
the Judge, as he drew forth small note
from his pocket.
Certainly, Judge" replied the host,
"but that was for this day of the month
last year, whensI recollect that we had
the pleasure of your company"
