Married by Power of Attorney

One day last week young lady ar.
rived at. New Bedford, Conn.,, on the
bark Veronica from Fayal. This young
lady was married at the islands several
weeks ago, yet singularly the first
glimpse of her husband was obtained
through the cabin window of the Veron-
lea. as he stood on Propeller wharf i'm
patiently waiting for the vessel to come
alongside the dock. The courtship had
people. Photographs were exchanged
and the compact was made. The BRIDE
groom forwarded a power of attorney,
formed Sna "n 6y by a priest u at Fayal, marrying
the young girl to man thousands OF
niles away. When they met in the cab
in the girl blushed, the husband smiled
and they prosaically shook hands. Each
was apparently completely satisfied with
their venture, and the husband bore his
young wife proudly away.

Steel may be cleansed by rubbing
with piece of wash leather dipped in
kerosene OIL. ,, -~s-. ....-...
:. Dry clay can be rendered pliable for
modelling by kneading with glycetine:
I. One way to utilize bread crumbs is to
dry them thoroughly in q warm-not
hot-oYen, roll fine, and keep in q jar
for frying oysters, etc:
In buying poultry, select chicken
with white flesh, pale yellow fat, lower
part of legs and teetsmooth:'
Beef fat is very nice If cooked thor
oughly in water and the fat dipped off
as it rises. It will remain soft, and is
preferred by many to lard. .
1t is recommended that papier mache
articles be washed with a sponge and
cold water, dredged with -four while
damp and polished with flannel.
A beef's tongue if dry; should be
soaked for several hours, put on in cold
water and boiled slowly four or five
hours.
Every night when going to bed put q
little water into bowl and dip the feet
into it and then rub briskly with bath
ing towel. This will induce warmth and
prevent chilblains.
An excellent authority states that a
man was cured of billousness by going
without his supper and drinking freely
of lemonade for time.
To remove ink stains from Turkey red
or white table spreads, add a spoonful of
kerosene to pint Of strong soap suds,
wash and rinse Immediately, and all
traces will disappear.
To prevent the skin from discoloring
after blow or fall, take a little dry
starch or arrowroot and merely moisten
it with cold water and lay it on the in
jured part. This should be done imme-
diately, SO as to prevent the action of
the air upon the skin.
To have note paper odorous, geta few
Quires of blotting paper and sprinkle
the she ts with the perfume de-
desired, then put them under weight
until they become dry. When dry put
note paper, envelopes, etc., between the
sheets and place them under a weight
Tor few hours; when removed they
will be found perfomed. The blotting
sheets can be made to retain their per-
fume for long time by keeping them
free from exposure to air.

How to Cure Egg Eating.


Sometimes the habit is formed by the
carelessness of the kitchen maid or
housekeeper, in throwing the egg.shells
into the pail aud giving them with the
other waste to the hens. This should
never he done if you want the hens to
respect their own eggs. Understanding
the cause of this unthrifty habit, it is
not very difficult to provide a remedy.
From recent experience, we have
found that the habit is very much bro
ken by an abundant supply of crushed
shells. 1t had grown so bad in a flock
of twenty Light Brahmas, owing to neg
lect of this ration, that they devoured
every egg, without the closest watching,
at the cackle of every laying hen. Civ
ing the shells every morning, the cray
ing ceased, and we found tie eggs re-
naming in the nests undisturbed. As
assistant to this remedy, we manufac-
tured an egg-trap from common nest
box. This is so simple that any one &C.
customed to the use of tools can make it
in an hour or two. A slight inclination
of the board upon which the nest-egg
is fastened will cause the new-laid egg
to roll away from under the hen, beyond
her reach, as soon as it is dropped. The
rear board has the same inclination to-
the center, and projects over the other
board far enough to protect the egg
when it has rolled away. The space be-
tween the boards IS just wide enough to
give free passage to the eggs. The egg
box may be lined with a handful ofsaW-
dust. or chaf1, to protect tho shells fro M
cracking. If the back board be furnished
with hinges, it can be used as lid, to
allow the removal of the eggs. It is a
complete egg-trap, and with the oyster
shells, in our case abated the nuisance
of egg eating. Many think, that when a
hen has contracted the habit of eeg-eat-
ing the shortest way is the best, and in
to be eaten: But good layer is too
valuable to be given up without an effort
to reform her bad habit, often acquired
through the negligence of the owner.
The egg-trap works admirably, and Sc
cures the end desired by placing it out
