Are you as happy now as you were
before you were married?' asked Mrs.
Yeast of young Mrs. Crimsonbeak.
Yes, indeed" replied the lady; ''and a
great deal happier" THAT is strange,
suggested the philanthrophist's wife.
Not at all strange" came from the
young married woman. ''You see, be-
fore l was married, used to spend half
my time worrying about what dress I
should wear when CAMEL called" but
don't you try just as hard to look well
when your husband returns home at
night p interrupted Mrs. Yeast. ''Weu.
you see, went on the bride of two sum-
mers, Il don't worry any about it now.
as I hare only one dress to my name"

Unity in Marriage.

Not only seIf-respect, but respect for the individuality of the husband and wife, is at the basis of true happiness in marriage, the acknowledgement of the right to that freedom of the one individ- ual which does not affect iniuriously the freedom of the other; regard for iden- tity and idiosyncrasy, and a study and understanding of such idiosyncrasy, must be implied in this mutual respect, and unity in all things must follow, of course, where it can be had and where such unity cannot be had, then forbear- ance on either side must take it's place. With this mutual respect and regard for the rights of one another comes the principle of unselfshness and unselfish- ness, we maintain, will make marriage an utterly happy thing under almost any conceivable condition, if thoroughly practiced by both parties. The trouble is that it is usually only one of the par ties that is called upon to exercise this virtue, and when the habit of the exact ing side is formed, the exsctions are apt to grow beyond the endurance of the one that has to meet them-the cord is stretched sometimes till it snaps. - Bdzdr

The White House Brewery.

When was in Chicago last, says a newspaper correspondent, I saw Stude- baker, the great wagon-maker. He told me fresh story-!resh to me-about President Hayes. Studebaker was very much fiattered by the consideration shown him at the White House one day. He had gone to see Hayes merely to pay his respects, and was tickled nearly to death when he was taken in and gushed over little. When the interview was over, the President directed the steward to take Mir. Studebaker down stairs and give him some refreshment. As the great wagon-maker followed down into the basement, he thought of his people up there in South Bend, and wondered what they would say if they could only see him going down into the Presidential wine cellar.
 'I was thinking what I'd take" said he. By the time l got to the bottom I came to the conclusion that perhaps some good old brandy would be the best I could grasp that drink, you know, and tell just what kind of stuff it was. Im agine my astonishment when at thai moment the steward called out to th, colored cook: Miranda Miranda Where's that jug of buttermilkT
 ''It broke me all up, said the wagon maker. 'I fancy can taste that EK' ecutive brandy yet.

Meteorological.

The Committee on Meteorology of the Lime-Kiln Club reported that Prof. Y. J. Clark's predictions for the re- mainder of the year had been received in good shape, and they were sent to the Secretary's desk to be read:
 October-If this month don't pan out thirty-one days, taxpayers ought to kick for their rights. Frosts can be looked for any time after the 10th. Flies will begin to lie abed longer in the morning, and the man who sold you a patent churn in the spring will drop in just as you begin to feel sanguine he is dead. Straw hats will hang on, but in a sheep ish sort of way.
 November-First blood for fall. Man who leaves the door open will have his attention attracted to the fact that the saw-mill is two squares further up the street. Good time to hunt up sore throat remedies and decide whether to hhy an overcoat or move South. Begin to see what an idiot you were to wish I for winter.
 December--Conside weather dur. | ing this month. Man who wrote 'sBeau- tiful Snow" will show up by the 2Oth. Sun umbrellas and bare-armed women retire for the season. Winds might be cooler, but are doing fairly we'll for De. cember. The secondhand cutter offered you in July for g. 75 is now marked Sl4. Any boys in your neighborhood who ought to be in Heaven should be coaxed into trying the ice on the river l Detroit Free Press.

The Old Frigate Shannon. s

At the foot of West Eleventh street, says New York paper, lies the old frig- ate Shannon, a crack frigate in her day, commanded by one of the best single ship captains ever trained in the British Navy, and victor in the only sea duel where the grid-iron flag went down before an equal adversary. The stout old ship is stately and distinguished looking still, ill her degradation, as 8 carrier of chalk from England hither, and of Standard oil from here to Eng land. She is like queen dethrcned, and in exile is queenly to the end.
 With unusual conversation and rever- ence, the various owners of the Shannon, since she ended her last public service as an Indian transport, have made as few changes as possible, and the old hull is practically in the same condition as on that of day 1913 when she put her helm up and ran of under short canvas to allow the Chesapeake to close.

from the neighboring counties of New Jersey ten thousand cans of milk. As much more is brought in by the Hudson River, the Harlem and the New York and New Haven roads from New York and Connecticut, but it is all drank be- fore the next morning comes again.
 "Yes," said one of the middlemen-or speculators, as they call themselves-as he rubbed his eyes and stared at the first red ray of sunlight across the sky behind Trinity steeple, tits been agood summer for growing things-too good for the farmers and us. There's so much been raised thatprices have been knocked all to pieces. It don't pay to bring apples, nor string beans, nor tomatoes into the city, they're so cheap; and cab bsges-why you can get sumner for two cents.
 ''Times ain't as they used to be- he continued, as he put on his coat and walked along the gutter which runs through the middle of Country row. "I'm going home now to get flew hours sleep, and let my partner sell what I bought tonight to the grocerymen. They'll be here in little while. By seven o'clock to-day the twelve hundred wagon loads of vegetables which were brought in last night by the farmers will be scattered all over the city, and half of it'll be eaten for breakfast"

The Spare Apples.

Crab-Apple Jelly-Wash sound ripe crab-apples, cut of the blossom ends, halve them and remove the stems; put them over the fire in the preserving kettle, with enough cold water to cover them, and stew them gently to a pulp; then pour them into flannel jelly bag, and let all the juice drain from them without squeezing the bag; the pulp may be stewed with a little sugar, or made into marmalade according to the recipe given below. Measure the juice; to each pint of juice allow a pound of granulated or cut loaf sugar; put them over the fire in the preserving kettle, remove all scum as it rises, and boil for about twenty minutes, or until a little of the jelly hardens when cooled on a saucer. Put the jelly into glasses while it is still warm, and when it is cold close the glasses by covering them with white paper, fastened with the white of an egg or mucilage.
 Orab-Apple Jelly with Lemon-To each pound of crab-apples allow one lemon; cut the yellow rind of the lemon very thin, and squeeze and strain the juice; make the jelly according to the preceding recipe, boiling the yellow rind with the apples, and adding the lemon juice just before the jelly is thick enough to put up in the glasses.
 Crab-Apple Marmalade - Use the pulp of the crab-apples after the juice has been drained from it to make jelly; weigh the pulp, add to each pound a pound of sugar; put the fruit and sugar over the fire in 8 preserving kettle, and boil the marmalade gently for twenty minutes from the time it begins to boil after it is done let it cool little, and and then put up in glasses like jelly.
 Apple Marmalade-Peel seven pounds of tart apples, and put them into the preserving-kettle with a pint of cold water; peel the yellow rind of four lemons and add it to the apples; squeeze the juice of the lemons, and keep it un. til the apples are boiled to pulp; then add it to them, together with four pounds of sugar, and boil the msrma- Jade for half an hour longer, or until il has the proper consistency. Put up ir jelly-glasses after it has cooled little.

StOnewau Jackson.

Dr. Hunter Mcclure, medical director on Stonewall Jackson's staff, says the general had, as if by miracle, escaped wounds until at Chancenorsville, when it seemed his guardian angel deserted him, for he was struck by three bullets in quick succession. The first went through the right hand, lodging under the skin. The next entered the left forearm just below the elbow and came out near the wrist, completely shatter- ing both bones. This was followed by an ounce ball crashing through the left arm near the shoulder, severing an im- portant artery. To add to the catastro- phe, his horse took fright aud dashed madly through the timber before he could get the reins gathered up in his left hand.

Trades Unions.

The first we hear of trades unions in America was in 1906, when trial of eight persons was held on the charge of 'combining to increase wages, to keep others from working, and to es- tablish arbitrary rules over working men" A combination of this sort had been practiced for some years pre- viously, and some remarkable cases of the pursuit of those who had not joined the union were brought out at the trial. The prisoners were reprimanded, fined, and made to pay the costs of the suit

Outdoor Sports for Girls.

Among the dear delights of the young women of the period let us recommend pedestrianism. Walking clubs are among the popular organizations this summer. A coaching club is more or less of an expense, but the highways are free to foot passengers. A number of clubs, composed entirely of young ladies, have been organized for brief summer rambles of a days duration. The costume adopted is usually a rough-and-ready mountain suit, with a helmet hat, stout shoes, perhaps of al- ligator skin, with A small knapsack and walking-stic When the party is formed for & tour through the mountains or lakes, there is usually an addition of gentlemen and chaperones. The gen. tlemen adopt a knickerbocker costume, which is found to be of service also in "wheel parties" or bicycle meets. (Call it bi-sigh-cle, not bi-sick-le, please. ) The tricycle. is rapidly coming into favor, being largely used in the parks, where the double-seated ones are ridden by ladies and gentlemen in company. There are single-seated ones, however, in which ladies ride at ease, either alone or with companion bicycle There is very little skill required in the manage ment of a tricycle.. A loose costume and a broad-brimmed hat comprise the only equipment necessary. After the tricycle. comes the swimming suit, the extremely abbreviated garment which takes the name of bathing-dress. It is quite as high an accomplishment to swim we'll as to ride we'll, and the natatoria are pat ronized by the most elegant ladies, who frisk about in picturesque suits of China silk, prettily made and ornamented.- Godey'S Lddg's Book.

Fishermen.

Upward of twelve thousand men and boys are engaged all the year round in the North Sea fisheries. They are ex- posed to new and growing danger in the shape ofswhat are known as ''coop- ers," but what in reality are floating grog shops. These shops of the sea sell liquors of the worst and most fiery sort. It is believed to be unknown to the general British public, being pur- chased in Holland. It produces most maddening effects. Special missionary efforts are made to counteract the in- fuence of the 'coopers. Four mis- sion smacks are now stationed with the fishing fleets.

THR GREAT TUNNEL ''Sutro Tunnel" among the mountains of Nevada, was finished in 1878, at cost of s3, 100000. The enterprise was one of the most gigantic of its day, and WIS begun in 1869. Mir. Adolph Sutro de- signed and executed the tunnel, to aid in the working of the "Comstock" lode by draining of the water, which would otherwise have to be pumped out, at tremendous cost, and by affording better ventilation. Better facilities are offered for the passage of the workmon. The tunnel is about four miles long, and At some points Ia 2, 1000 feet below the sur face.
