A Mothers Influence.

Some one, who had noticed the inllu-
ence of wives in promoting the good or
evil fortunes of their husbands, said:
"a man must asl; his wife's leave to be
rich" We doubt not that similar OBJ
seryation of the influence of mothers
upon their sons would justify the re-
mark: "a man must ask his mother S
leave TO be great"
Years ago, a family of four, a father,
a mother, and two sons, dwelt in n
small house, situated in the toughest
locality of the rocky town of Ashford,
Conn. The family was very poor
A few acres of stony land, dozen
sheep and one COW, supported them.
The sheep clothed them, and the cow
gave milk, and did the work of horse
in blowing and narrowing. Corn bread,
milk and bean-porridge was their fare
The father being laid aside by i'll
health, the burden of supporting the
family rested on the mother She did
her work in the house and helped the
boys do theirs on the farm. Once, in
the dead of winter, one of the boys re-
quired new suit of clothes. Therewa
neither money nor wool on hand. The
mother sheared the halt-grown fleece
from the sheep, and in one week the
suit was on the boy. The shorn sheep
was protected from the cold by gar
.ment made of braided straw.
The family lived four miles from the
''meeting-h6use.n Yct,-every Sunday,

church. One of these sons became the

years. Two generations went from that
church to make tie world better
The other son also became minister,
and then one of the most successful of
college presidents. Hundreds of young
men were moulded by him.
That heroic Christian woman's name
was Deborah Mott. She was the mother
of Rev. Samuel Mott. DID,, and OF

of Union College. N. y. Observer.

Cooking Apples.

When apples are plenty. they may be
so cooked as to form an important ar
ticle of diet, and that, too, without
cloying the appetite. The core removed
through the blossom end of fair, sour
apples, the cavities filled with sugar
and the apples baked. will make nice
dessert. Sweet apples are delicious
when boiled in sugar and served in their
own sirup. Apple shortcake and
dumplings are variously made One of
the best is to fill a baking dish half full
of tart, easily-cooked apples; spread
over it a dough of sour cream, made
stiff with flour, and liAle salt and
soda, and bake. - Eat with sweeteued
cream,~or "a nice sauce made.of-one-

cover the dumplings with IL until the

add occasionally a little lemon or orange
peel; always stir in a little butter with
the sugar; sometimes, slice-theg apples
thin, add sugar, little butter and Gin
namon, and stew very slowly and not
quite soft. Baked sweet apples are ex-
ceedingly healthful, and with bread and
milk make nice supper for little folks.
Crab apples. either whole or quartered,
are good if stewed in sweetened water.
Fresh apples, mellow. or crisp and
juicy. deserve place on the dinner and

thin slices of about } inch thickness, and
then by large steel knives chopped into

with caustic soda in upright boilers, heat
cd by steam, circulated through u jacket, in
which il is confined between perforated
diaphragms. To every two boilers is con-
nectcd, by capacious pipe, q large sheet
iron cylinder, which receives their con-
tents--pulp liquid and steam. The liquid
solution of pulp flows from these rcccpta-
clcs To Hat iron draincrs mounted OH

hold the contents of one boiler. The
tracks OH which these cars run are under
laid with sewers which receive tho liquid

then goes to the washing engines, thence
to stuff chests, and from there Is forward
ell by pumps to net machines, the screens
of which retain all the Impurities derived
from knots, bark and other sources and
the pulp, or halfstuir SO obtained, Is per-
rcctly clean and of u light-gray color. IL
