"A good garden and small orchard,
well taken care of, pay more than any
acre on the farm, besides the luxury,
benefit. pleasure and health it gives to
the family Cincinnati Times.
Called and sore shoulders in horses
are often caused by the name working
under the collar while pulling. This
can be avoided by plating the name
and tying it up in such manner that
it can not touch the collar. 1t not only
Injuries the shoulder but the name also,
which is one of the beauties of the horse.

An able author says: "Pickles are
exceedingly unhealthy as articles of
food, and often cause acute dyspepsia.
Young ladies addicted to their free use
may be assured that they must certainly
part with their favorite dainty or bid
farewell to good digestion. Cucumbers
preserved with salt and vinegar are
next to impossible of digestion.
AN appetizing entree is made by
taking cold boiled cabbage; chop it
fine; for medium-sized pudding dish
full add two well-beaten eggs, a table
spoonful of butter, three tablespoonfuls
of cream, with pepper and salt ad libi-
tam. Butter the pudding dish, put the
cabbage in and bake until brown. This
may be eaten cold, but it is much bet
ter if served hot. 1t is especially good
with roast pork or pork chops.-N 7.

Cream Candy: ''Place large cup.
full of white sugar, granulated is the
best, in a porcelain kettle, with three
tablespoonfuls Of water, and let it dis
solve at the back of the stove. then set
it forward, and let boil until it will
crisp in water. Stir in teaspoonful
OF rose or vanilla extract, and half a
teaspoonful of cream of tartar, pour it
into a buttered pan or platter, and
when cool work it until it is perfectly
white, cut it in little squares and set it
away to dry.-Enchange.
-Beefsteak Picked: Lay steak in
a pudding dish, with slices of onions,
a few cloves, whole pepper, salt, and
bay leaf a sprig of thyme, one of mar
joram, and some parsley, add oil and
tarragon vinegar in equal parts, just to
come up to the steak, and let it steep in
this for about twelve hours, turning it
occasionally; then either broil it or fry
it.in butter, and serve with mashed po-
tatoes. Itmay also be slightly fried in

A NEW YORK MAN was fined $500 for

THERE ARE between nine and ten

THE ST. PAUL Pioneer Press says:
''Three little girls called at the lookup
last evening to apply for the release of

DRINKERS who are married men-if

case the husband preferred the counter
charge of drunkenness against his wife,

husband set the example, and her
prayer for divorce was granted. j
Hon. WM. BRoss, one of the editors
and proprietors of the Chicago Tribune,
in recent letter to his paper, says:
CATER the line passes the boundary of
Manitoba, not one drop of liquor is al
lowed to resident or railway passenger.
Baggage of all kinds is searched for it,
and all that is found is incontinently
confscated. Let thirsty souls take
warning and avoid the scrutiny and I'M
finching energy of the sred-coats,' for
they do their duty with impartial sever
ity. Gambling in any form and cog
nate vices are equally under the ban.
Hence the contrast between the quiet
and good order of these border towns
and what we have seen at Laramie,
Promontory Point, and other places
while our continental railways were
building, shows what burning curse
whisky is to mankind. Where its sale
is strictly forbidden by law, and that
law is enforced, quiet, peace and thrift
prevail; gambling, drunkenness and
debauchery are unknown, the laborer is
protected from the wiles Of the wicked,

Goodbye Old stamp, it's nasty luck
That ends our friendship 80.
When others failed you gamely stuck,
But now you're got to 60
so here's a flood of honest tears.
And here's an honest sigh
Goodbye, old friend of many years
Goodbye, old stamp, good-byel
Your life has been a varied one.
:, with curious phases fraught--
sometimes check, sometimes dun,
= Your daily coming brought;
smiles to waiting lovers face,
Tears to mothers eye,
Or JOY or pain to every place
Goodbye, old stamp, good byel
You bravely tof1ed, and better men
Will Youch for what / say:
Although you have been licked, twas when
Your face turned t'other way;
Twas often in box you got
(As you will not deny
For going through the mails, / wot--
Good bye, old stamp, good byel
All, in your last expiring BREATH
The tale of years is heard
The sound of voices hushed in death,
= mothers dying word,
a maiden's answer, soft and sweet.
A wife's regretful sigh,
The patter Of a baby's feet
Goodbye, old stamp. good-byel
What WONDER then, that at this time
When you and must part, "
should aspire to speak in rhyme
The promptings Of my heart.
Go, bide with all those mem ries dear
That live when others die
You've nobly served your purpose here

I have to record that Washington has, at
last, new center of civilization-one that
New York has long possessed; that is, Bren-
tanos. find myself wondering thatwe have
Brentano; and look with concern, as pass
down the newly-paved boulevard, lest in the
night he folded his tent, like an Arab, and
silently stole away. Not that he abides in u
tent. Oh no, His decorated shop is on the
corner of Eleventh street. With all its jets of
metropolitanism, if you could but know how
hard it is for Washington to get over beinga an
Old Dominion village, you would not wonder
Mt my eXclamatons over Brentano. recall u
time in the Valley of Virginia when l heard
the mistress of plantation groaning over the
degenerate day which had brought into her

asked.
"A bakc-oven in the back yard!" she
groaned.
+" If | had my old servants to carry food into
the house, do you suppose / would have
Yankee cool-stove in it? Oh! no."
So, for how many years Washington city
has warred against "modern conveniences,"
1t olung to its high 'porches; its dreadful
out-houses; its half-warmed, unventilated
rooms; its dingy, pinched-up, half-flled little
shops, till one day the vast wave of civiliza-
tion that has been flowing from the north
since the world began swept over the city, and
when it emerged from the deluge it was u
southern village no longer, Yet so many REM
nantsof the gentlemen of the old school +"
days remain, of the days when it was vulgar
to know too much or to be enthusiastically in
terested in anything, or to read any American
literature of later date than Joel Barlows

tano's see the New York Independent, and the
