Domestic Hints and Helps.

A pretty dish for dessert is made by
beating the whites of four eggs to stiff
froth, and then add gradually cup OF
powdered sugar. Take the juice from a
can of red raspberries, strain it and color
and flavor the eggs and sugar with it.
Serve in glasses with cake or with char
lotte russo.
One way to prepare onion favoring
for a vegetable soup is to take a large
onion, remove the outer skin, then stick
cloves into the onion, and bake it until
it is nicely Drowned. The peculiar fla
vor thus gained is relished by the cpl
cure.
A favorite dish in one of the Middle
States is made by slicing raw potatoes
and cooking them in milk and water;
when nearly done, drop dumplings made
like biscuit in and serve together with
roast beef. Season the gravy with but
ter, pepper and salt, and thicken with a
little flour.
It is thought by some cooks to be an
improvement upon the ordinary Brown
Betty pudding if crust is put over the
top. 1t serves to keep all the moisture
within. If pie crust is objected to by
any member of the family it can be re-
moved from their portion of the pudding
without difficulty.
A good dish for breakfast is made by
chopping pieces of cold boiled or fried
ham just as fine as it is possible to chop
them; mix them with cold mashed pota-
toes, an egg or two, little butter or
cream, or both, form into balls, -four
them, melt little butter in frying
pan, and brown the balls. Serve hot.
Take any sort of meat (cold) and suet,
mixed; chop very fine, add salt, onions,
minced ham or tongue. slice of bread
soaked in milk, two well-beaten eggs,
one ounce of butter; stew altogether fif
teen minutes; turn it into mould, and
bake till brown. Turn out on a hot
dish, and cover with the gravy strained
off when moulded.

Broken Down.


A stranger in Denver stopped on the
sidewalk, and manifested deep interest
in broken-down, spawned black horse
that was doing his best to draw load
while a cart driver was vigorously bella
boring him. The poor beast tugged
again in vain. At length the stranger
called, in low tone, Craven Raven!'
The horse looked up with intelligence,
glanced furtively around, and made for
the stranger, drawing the cart out of the
rut. He whinnied with delight, and
then rubbed his nose against the stran-
gers shoulder. The stranger had known
him when he was king of the turf in
Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado,
making minis of money for his owner,
the notorious and improvident desperate
Clary Allison. The desperate broke the
horse down and then broke himself
down, and the horse was sold to g
drayman.

How Railway Kings are Made.

The Chicago Herald says There
came to Chicago last week as the host
and entertainer of Duke Gwin. in q
special car, young man whose career
has been almost as romantic as the
''Duke's" is famous. Jerome A. Fill
more is his name. Born and reared on
q rocky farm in Pennsylvania, he used
to go to country school in summer
with bare feet and straw hat. with his
hair sticking out of the crown. One
day, when he was about twelve years
old, surveyors came to his fathers farm
with their tripods to survey the Della
ware, Lackawanna and Western Rail-
road. The boy looked on cT1riousIy. and
wondered what it meant. Next wear the
rails came, and with them a locomotive.
That was enough for the boy. He would
neglect his chores and steal off to watch
the locomotive. He refused to study.
He would steal rides and associate with
the workmen. When the road was COM
pleted and coal trains were put on one
day Jerome turned up missing.
Active search was made. and in a
week or so the fat, sturdy boy was
found. He was a brakeman on a coal
train at $25 month as starter. The
station agent near his fathers farm had
put him on the road, and the old folks
were furious. That was about twenty
five years ago. There is no need to fol-
low the boy in his course. 1t was always
upward. Last week he came to Chicago
with his family and Duke Gwin, in a
special car, as General Superintendent
of the Central and Southern Pacific
Railway system, and everywhere recog-
nized and admitted as one of the finest
His salary is SIS, 600 year, and it would,
perhaps, be doubled before he would be
allowed to leave the company's service.
Boys, the chances are not all gone by
any means.

The Brilliant Sunsets.

Professor LOOMS, of New Haven,
while confessing his inability to satisfac.
torily explain the brilliant sunsets. sug.
gests interesting theories concerning
them. He does not ascribe them to
vapor in the air, and say that the late
ness of the hour shows the cause to be
at great elevation from the earth's
surface. He objects to the theory OF
volcanic dust from the eruption in Java
in the autumn, as that took place too long
ago, and the phenomena was only
noticed recently. AS to the volcanic
eruptions in California and Washington
Territory, while smoke was emitted
which contains dust, the dust may not
be red, but when the sun shines through
the cloud of dust its red rays have more
penetrating power than the other rays
in the spectrum. Professor Loomis
instances the red sunsets upon hot nights
in summer, when the atmosphere is
filled with dust. Another suggestion by
him is that the phenomenon is due to some
foreign substance falling into the air,
and the possibility that meteors con-
stantly falling into the atmosphere may
cause the brilliancy, but he adds that
the latter is a vague conjecture.

A BUSY scene.

Mr.. w. w. SUNDERLAND Is one of Danbury' s
Comm first citizens, and a prominent man.
His word IS considered as good as his bond.
and any statement coming from him would
never be doubted by any one knowing him.
He conducts, at Nos. 5 and Spring street, a
very large factory for the manufacture of
sashes, blinds, doors, etc. In connection
with this he employs a large number of men,
and many of the lar gest buildings in the city
are monuments of his skill as builder and
architect. Recently, when called on, he was
found at his place busily engaged in direct
ing a small army of men. On making our
errand known we were invited 10 his office.
when Mr.. S. briefly told a wonderful story of
matter which had troubled him greatly for
a long time. He said: 81 am very busy, but
always have time to say good word for so
valuable an Article as Hunts Remedy. My
mother is seVenty-siX (76) years old. She
has suffered for long time with the dropsy
and kidney complaint. She has doctored
with several physicians and used a large
quantity of medicine. Really, she has taken
everything we could hear of, without finding
any relief, until my sister, who lives at
Bridgeport, Conn, suggested to her to use
Hunts Remedy, as she knew of number of
persons there who had been benefited by
ing relief she has continued until now she
has used in all eight (S) bottles, from which
she has received great eCefit. Her case is
considered incurable, but we all think, as
she says, Hunts Remedy is all that keeps her
alive. l make this plain statement with the
hope that any one who may be similarly
afflicted will be induced to use this great
medicine, as | am positive it will prove salts

himself, his shipmates will not only re-
monstrate with him, but will go to the
length of reducing his share to its proper
limits; and if he protests against this
treatment, committee of one or more,
according to his size, is appointed to
thrash him. The sailors sit on their
chests while at their meals. No tables
are provided for them. The captain and
his officers are, as rule, well satisfied
with plain fare. They are furnished
with genuine tea and coffee, but the
balance of their fare is not much supe-
rior to that which is given to the sailor.
They, however. indulge in the luxury OF
sitting at table while at their meals.
The captain always seems to be in
hurry to appease his hunger, and PUSHES
to his pipe as soon as he can get through
his meal. His officers copy him in this
particular if in nothing else.

A Western Real Life Story.

Bishop Henry W. Warren, of Atlanta,
Mrs. Elizabeth S. lift, q well-known
cattle raiser of Colorado.
Among the foremost-if not the fore
most-cattle raisers in Wyoming in the
early days was Mr.. I. W. lift. His
herds were numbered by hundreds of
thousands, and his ranges in Wyoming
and Colorado were widespread. By
some chance-he being a widower at
that tlme-he met a young sewing-ma-
chine agent on one of his visits to Den
yer. Courtship followed, and it was not
long before sewing machines were aban-
doned for family cares. She became
Mrs. Tiff and Cheyenne became her
home for a short time Now the wife of
a millionaire. and removed from the
cares and vexations of O business life and
at best hard struggle for support, Mrs.
Lift displayed IN a supreme degree those
high womanly qualities which had, under
former trials, brought her SO successfully
through. In 1876, when United States
Marshal Shaffenburg, of Denver, was
sent to prison for irregularities in office,
Mr.. and Mrs. Tiff bought his palatial
home and removed to Denver. Here,
soon afterward, Mr.. Tiff died, leaving
his entire and vast cattle interests to his
widow and his two sons, minors. Instead
of laying aside these new cares by dis
posing of her herds. Mrs. Tiff at once
assumed these fresh and great RESPONSE
bilities, and became one of the leading
cattle dealers of the United States.
From the moment she assumed charge
of this trust fortune has followed every
venture she has made, and her income
has steadily rolled in at the rate of from
100000 to 100000 a year. It quite
naturally followed that she should be
sought in marriage by Adventures and
others, but she has up to the present
steadfastly adhered to her determination
to remain single rather than become
united to some one who sought her
money rather than herself. It is to be
presumed, therefore, that the good
Bishop of Atlanta who has now made her
Mrs. Warren has convinced her that
consort, not riches, was his sole purpose.
Since her widowhood Mrs. lifts interest
in the Methodist den omination grew very
strong, and she had repeatedly expressed
a determination to her intimate friends
to devote large portion of her wealth
at the end to the church cause.
These are but skeleton facts in the ro-
mantle life of the once poor girl who is
now one of the richest women in the
Trans-Missouri region, or in the entire
west, for that matter who, by her own
industry and native worth, stepped up
from poverty to the possession of for
tune estimated above SO, 1000, 900.
