il was intended, but it can't hold q

and grandmothers made. just look at
the difference in the two brands.
Mothers had a nice short crust with
an edge about an inch deep and in this
was a plump measure Of pumpkin
'spulp'' mixed with nice fresh eggs, milk
and just enough spice to give it flavor.
1t was picture Of blooming, healthy
pie. 1t makes a mans mouth water to
think Of it. The store kind ofpumpkin
pie has sort Of sickly, second cousin
countenance and is scarcely over an
eighth of an inch thick, with a crust on
the bottom that almost breaks the tim
ner's shears to cut it. AS for taste,
that has to be imagined, as it is a sort
Of go-as-you-please flavor between tan
bark and cinnamon. There
should be some action taken by the legi-

An Underground Oitv.

New York, us every one knows, is
situated upon narrow island. 1t can
not spread out in one direction because
OF the surrounding waters. As a con-
sequence an enormous business is being
done upon small surface of land, to
utilize which there have been built with
in the last twelve years immense Office
buildings and apartment houses, each
of which accommodates rs many people
as live in an ordinary village. Under
this narrow stretch of land are built
sewers, easements and cellars, in ad-
ditiOn to gas-pipes, water-mains and
other underground constructions. To
relieve the surface of the streets of their
enormous vehicular traffic, it is pro-
posed TO build underground streets and
subways to accommodate the sewers,
water, gas and steam pipes, and eventu-
ally telegraph and telephone wires. Nor
is this all. Advantage will be taken of
these subways to run cars, and open
passages for vehicles. 1t is not improb-
able that by the twentieth. century the
principal thorOughfares will be under
laid by Il second street, SO as to expedite
travel and traffic. New York has tried
one experiment on a very great scale;
no less than three companies are laying
steam pipes all over the city, which can
be used not only for power but for heat
ing and cooking purposes. It's believed
that the time will shortly come when
furnaces, stoves and other heating APP
paratuses will be dispensed with, and
that heat will be supplied from the out
side as water and gas now are. tits said
that every process of cooking, including
broling, can be done by steam. How
this can be accomplished is amystery to
the uninitiated.- DenOreSt'S MONTHLY.

What Men Need Wives For.

It is not to sweep the house, and make
the beds, and darn the socks, and cook
the meals, chiefly that Il man wants a
wife. If this is all he wants, hired
servants can do it cheaper than Il wife.
If this is all, when a young man calls to
see a lady send him into the pantry to
taste the bread and cakes she has made;
send him to inspect the needlewOrk and
bed-making; or put broom into her
hands and send him to witness its use.
Such things are important, and the wise
young man will quietly look after them.
But what the true man most wants OF a
wife is her companionsl,ip, sympathy
and love. The way of life has many
dreary places in it, and man needs u
companion to go with him. A man is
sometimes overtaken by misfOrtunes; he
meets with failure and defeat; trials and
temptations beset him; and he needs one
to stand by him and sympathize. He
has some stern battles to fight with pow
erty, with enemies and with sin, and he
needs woman that, while he puts his
arm around her and feels that he has
something TO fight for, will help him
fight; who will put her lips to his ear
and whisper words of counsel, and her
hand to his heart and impart new in
SEPARATIONS. All through life-through
storm and through sunshine, conflict
and victory; through adverse and favor
able winds-man needs wOman's love.
The heart yearns for it. A sisters and a
mothers love will hardly supply the
need. Yet many seek Ornothingf further
than success in hOusewOrk. Justly
enough, half of these get nothing more.
The other half, surprised above measure,
obtain more than they sought. Their
wives surprise them by bringing a
nobler idea of marriage, and disclosing
a treasury of courage. sympathy and
love.
