Cooking For Company.

Railways keep supply of well cooked
food ready at all times, in case of unex.
pected company having learned lesson
in my earlier Housekeeping days, when
q small horde of relatives came, without
notice, to pay me short visit. They
came about tea time and found me with
a pantry scanty in the extreme and the
store two miles away. I was young
and proud. and the humiliation OF
borrowing enough from one OF the
neighbors to make out repast taught
me to be always prepared with some
thing at least to make out decent
meal.
Too many housekeepers, who are nat
urally good cooks, fall into the way of
sighting the cooking of their every day
meals, and wait till company comes to
show off their best efforts in the culi-
nary line.
/ think this is a mistake. The meh
folks are oftener kept in good spirits by
having their meals nicely prepared and
promptly served, and the saying that
"the way to mans heart is through
his stomach" is true according to my
notion.
Cook as well for your husband as you
do for your company and there will be
peace in the family. To possess the
knowledge of making good white or
brown bread, common sense pudding
and pastry, delectable soups and stews,
or of cooking steaks, chops or ham in
an appetizing manner, is of more value
than knowing how to make Charlotte
Russo, cream meringue. angels food or
black fruit cake, though these last NAV
be all well enough in their wav.-DaiSy

BALTIMORE, Feb 9.--The mystery sur
rounding the shooting Of Miss Eva De Cour-
sey, aged II years, popular young lady In
Washington county, Maryland, few days
ago, has been solved. It appears a young
law student named Clarence Newell has been
counting Miss De Coursey for two years
past About q week ago they quarreisd,
and neither would make any concession 10
the other looking to reconciliation.
On Sunday last Newell INST Miss
DE Coursey as she was leaving
church in company with another young
man, and the quarrel was renewed. The
next day he resolved upon Q novel, yet o.
the sequel will show, an unfortunate plan,
to effect a reconciliation. Knowing Miss Do
Coursey would pass his house Monday on her
way to take music lessons Newell persuaded
two young mon to watch for her, and Inn
diately upon her reaching the pavement Of
his dwelling Newell discharged pistol into
the fireplace. The young men rushed out Of
the house and exclaimed, "My God, Clarence
has shot himself and is dyingp
Miss De Coursey rushed into the house and
found young Newell lying upon the floor in
the parlor with revolver by his side A
large spot of blood was upon his temple, and
he was moaning as if in great pain. Miss
and throwing her arms around the neck OF
the PROSTATE youth, exclaimed: "Oh, Clar
ence why did you do thisp EaL
Suddenly she caught sight Of the revolver
lying upon the floor, picking it up she pointed
the weapon at her breast, and, with the re-
mark, Clarence, will die with you," she
pulled the trigger and fell to the floor.
Young Newell, upon hearing the report Of
the pistol realized what she had done,
leaped to his feet, and ran for assistance
Miss De Courssy was found to have bean So
siouSly hurt The ball entered two inches
below the heart, and she remained uncon.
scious. Newell and the two young man who
took part in the affair are deeply grieved at
the result, and the feeling against them Il
very bitter. 80 E
The doctor attending Miss De CoufseJ
says she is not yet out Of danger. Newell
stated that she would never touch his pistol
even when it was unloaded, and hence hs
had no idea that she would shoot herself
