housewife would use as Il plain lunch
or II side-dish for breakfast. Christ nc
Terhune Herrick says that the cause of
waste is due not so much to the extrav-
agance of the housewife as TO the
ignorance. She says: "The dainty
utilization of scraps is a subject that
well repays the thoughtful study of any
housewife, and even the least original
cook can often evolve from their inner
consciousness an ap~petizing dish from
cold fragments that at first sight appear
utterly unpromising. In this matter.
however, the mistress must generally
depend upon her own brains. Few hire.
lings have the keen interest i'm their en-
plOyers' welfare hat would urge them
to save n couple Of pennies here and five
or six there. Fewer still. with the best
intentions in the world. know how to
do it, or appreciate that it is in tho
minor economies that true saving con-
sists. What difference does il make if
those scraps of cold bacon left from
breakfast are SUNNI arily disposed of in
the swill-barrel, or if that bit of corn
beef-too small to appear upon the table
again-is bestowed upon the first

Singular Hindoo Outrage.

The police at Hyderbad have succeed
ed in arresting four Pariahs charged
with Decorating graves on a large scale
for a singular superstitious purpose.
The graves of children freshly buried
were the special objects of their opera
tions. The head of the band, n Pooiaree
named Appawoo, use to cut the large
blood-vessels connected with the head
and neck of the disinterred children,
and subsequently employed them in the
CONNECTION of an ointment which, he
told his dupes, when applied to the cye-
lids. conferred the power of seeing hid
den treasures. The detection of tho
ruflians was caused by the visit one
night of n mother to the grave of her
child, buried only that day. She sur
prised them at their work and at once
brought the police.-St. James Gazette.
