the managers wish in this public manner
to acknowledge their Indebtedness to
members of the Y NJ. G. A. and other
persons in town, for valuable assistance
in this department of the work. The Y.
NJ. G. A. provided a Christmas tree last
year, as for two or three years previous
for the Home Sunday school, and the
children enjoyed ii great treat.
The Home is under great obligations to
the managers of the Central Vermont
railroad for the courtesy of an excursion
to Missisquoi park in the summer. Oc-
cUrling rs 1t did, Just after the children
had been shut pin the mouse for weeks,
with measles, the change and recreation
were of inestimable valuable to them, as
well as TO the ladies of the family.
Within the past few months the Home
has received a bequrst of S03J ~ from the
estate of the late Miss Philena Clark of
Williston, which we gratefully acknowl-
edge. BY the unanimous vote of the
board, the whole sum was added 10 the
permanent fund.
We tender our sincere thanks to all
friends throughout the State, for their
lberality and good Will, as shown in gifts
of money, clothing, bedding and toys.
We are grateful for everything so recelv-
ed, be it ever so small, but most of all for
the interest in our work, OF which the
gifts are hut the visible expression.
An incident occurred last spring, which
happily illustrates what children can do.
Some little girls about nine years oiu IN
the town of Chelsea, conceived the idea
of doing something for the Home and
for this purpose decided upon an evening
entertainment. They secured hail. in
yited the band to play for them, appoint,
ed some little boys to speak pieces, and
10 the village and invited all their friends
to a five cent entertainment that evening
Probably they did not once think what
they should wear, but their mothers help
ed them with their costumes, and when
evening came, the hall was well nlled

As One Woman to Another.

One sunny summer afternoon in the year
1878, the most royal woman of all the royal
lines of women of the nineteenth century,
Princess Alice and Grand Duchess of HesSe,
paid visit to the Albion House for peni-
tent fallen women at Brighton. When the
matron or lady superintendent, Mrs Murray
Wears, desired to tell the inmates who their
visitor was, Alice put up her hand. Nay,
said she, 81 come as one woman to another. "
And she went her way among those penitent
Magdalens and spoke with them, not as vir-
tue fOrgiving vice. not as the perfect
lady patronizing the wicked, imper-
feet creature of shame, but as
one woman. T9speaking to another.
There was no hint of superiority in her
manner, no condescension. She was but
friendly and symphethetic, and no one can
doubt that her presence was a blessing in
that penitential home. There are many fine
ladies who have not the blood of princes in
their veins, who might well pattern their
lives upon that of Alice, Grand Duchess OF
Hesse. If ever woman was, she was the
friend of women; she belonged to her sex,
to the rich and the poor, to those who were
immaculate no less than to those who had
sinned. She went to them as lone woman
TO another" and none visited forgot the
woman in the princess. There are in New
Orleans certain charitable ladies who visit
the poor and the outcast but who are the
persOnifications of duty divorced from love
and sympathy when making their mission
airy rounds. They visit as patrons, not as
lone woman going to another"

Regulating the Cellar.

lAmerlcan AGRICULTURAL
a great mistake is sometimes made in
ventilating cellars and milk-hOuses The
object of ventilation is to keep the cellars
cool and dry, but this object often fails of
being accomplished by common mistake,
and instead the cellar is made both warm
and damp. cool place should never be
ventilated, unless the air admitted is cooler
than the air within, or is at least as cool as
that, or very little warmer. The warmer
the air the more moisture it holds in sus-
pension, Necessarily, the cooler the ar the
more this moisture is condensed and precip-
itated. When a cool cellar is aired on a
warm day, the entering air being in motion
appears cool; but as it fills the cellar the
cooler air with which it becomes mixed chills
it, the moisture is condemned, and dew
is deposited on the cold walls, and
may often be seen running down
them in streams Then the cellar
is damp, and soon becomes moldy. To
avoid this the windows should only be
opened late at night-the last thing before
retiring. There is no need to fear that the
night air is uDhealthful; it is as pure as the
air OF midday, and is really dryer The
cool air enters the apartments during the
night and circulates through it. The win
dOws should be closed before sunrise in the
morning and kept closed and shaded during
the day. If the air of a cellar is damp it
may be thoroughly dried by placing in it a
peck of fresh lime in an open box. A peck
of lime viii absorb about seven pounds. or
more than three quarts, of water, and in
this way a cellar or milk room may soon be
dried, even in the hottest weather A bushel
of lime absOrbs twenty-seyen pounds of
water, and still appears as dry as powder. In
this condition it will be very useful TO
spread over the garden or lawn, or around
fruit trees, or it may be usen for whitewash.
This precaution is often necessary in the
dairy, because of the prevalence, where it is
damp, of mildews and the various forms of
mold. The orange and red kind of mold
especially. which sometimes form upon the
cream, have most injurious effect upon
the butter

NIanaSement of the Churn-
lAmericau Dairyman.1

About nine-tenths of the dairymen will
build fire in the morning and start for the
cows, taking the dog along, while the dairy
maid puts the cream in the churn without
testing the temperature, except by putting
her fingers in the cream to get out what
sticks to the pals. When the man returns
with the cows he will put the dog on the
power and start the churn, and then go to
milking. Perhaps some COW strayed away,
and he was half an hour late before the
ehurn was started and meanwhile the cream
had got three or four degrees warmer than it
was when put in the churn. The dog got
tired chasing the stray COW, and stops the
ehurn every time ne gets a chance. The
churning is prolonged into the heat of the
day, until some one of the family comes
along and discovers that ''the butter has
come" Just at that time the housewife or
maid has her hands in the dough, or some
thing else, and can't attend to the butter
until she has that job done. So the churn
stands fifteen or twenty minutes longer.
When she takes the butter from the churn it
is white and soft, 80 she puts it into ice
water for an hour or so, and then il is whittier
still. To be sure and have it keep, the salts
il an ounce or more to the pound.
That amount suits her taste, because she
lives inland where salt is never supplied to
the human system except artifcially. When
her butter reaches some large seaboard mar

One Hundred Years Old and still an Actress.
London Daily News. I

AT the office of the Adige of Verona ap-
peared the other day aged lady, still ro-
bust and gay, who offered to recite at per-
formances proposed to be given in favor of
old actors, reserving benefit night for her
self. She was Rosalinda Caruso, formerly
an actress well known in Verona through
her career and lately on account of her ven
cradle age. She was born August %, 1855,
and has therefore, just completed her Tooth
year. She is still able to read without spec
tacles. All the savings she had been able to
accumulate during sixty years on the stage
had been devoured by the troubles she has
gone through principally by the burning of
the Monte di Pieta and the foundations
which occurred few years ago.
