Something About the Girl Inhabitants OF
These Islands.

SOmeInlnB ABOUT the Glrl inhabitants or
These Islands.
AS our men took their meals on the
spardeck the women, and as many Of
the native men as could be provided for,
ate with them. The natives are not
dainty, but cram their mouths full, and
eat voracously. The women are very
fond of meat, but are not allowed to eat
it on the island, where it is taboo to
them-another instance of the selfish
character of the men. 1t is too scarce,
however, for the men to indulge in, ex-
cept at a festival. The taboo is laid
merely by the proclamation of priest.
They have pair of goats on the island,
and that they may increase undisturb-
eddy they are taboo to all persons for
five years. Our dinner table in the
ward room being under an open hatch,
they clustered round the hatch and
watched the manner of our eating with
great delight. Anything that was
handed to one of them from the table
was thankfully received, and divided
among the rest, and eaten with
so great satisfaction and greedi-
ness that they reminded us of monkeys.
Once, for curiosity, we took several Of
the prettiest and cleanest girls below TO
dine with us. They behaved with
great deal of decorum, and in order
that they might make no mistakes and
do nothing wrong they watched US
closely and did exactly what we did.
Each officer attended to the girl that he
brought down, and he was the model
by which she governed her actions. She
would put no more in her mouth at a
time than he, use her knife and fork as
he, lay them down when he did, be
helped when he was, drink when he
did One of the officers attending on a
girl had nervous affection in his under
jaw, and every now and then would
screw up his chin and face in a very ri
diculous manner, and he was very sem
sitive of its being remarked on. His
girl, anxious to initiate him in every
respect, to be perfectly decorous, kept
an eye on him all the time, and when
he screwed his mouth to one side she
would instantly do the same, to our in
finite merriment, and no less to his
modification - Christian at Work.

An Article of Food Which Is Considered
a Delicacy by Many.
Wash perfectly clean half pound Of
potatoes and then steam them without
removing the skins. Mash them thor
oughly with half pint of flour, half a.
pint of tepid water and half an ounce of
salt. When well mixed, put away in
place where the temperature is seventy
eight degrees of Fahrenheit for one
hour Then add and mix with it half
pint of good yeast and put away in the
same place for nine hours. 1t may re-
quire somewhat longer than nine hours
or little less, but it may be known in
this way; The compound will, after
awhile, gradually and slowly foam for
some time and then begin to fall; as
soon as it begins to fall mix little tepid
water with it and strain through sieve;
throw away potato skins and eyes; mix
what is strained with two pounds of
flour and sufficient tepid water
to make an ordinary dough. Put
it away again in the same place until
it cracks on the top, which will
occur in about an hour. Then put six
pounds of flour on the pasteboard and
make hole in the center; place in this
little tepid water and cracked dough;
salt to taste; knead the whole well with
water enough to make an ordinary
dough. To knead it well tits necessary
to raise the dough, or part it, and then
throw it back with force on the paste
board. The more the'dough is kneaded
the lighter the bread Then shape the
loaves, let rise, and bake in a quick
oven. To shape loaves of French bread,
divide the dough, as soon as kneaded,
in as many parts as you want loaves;
then knead each part, one after the
other, so as to form sort of ball; then
by rolling and pulling it, give it an
elongated, sausage-like shape. A pound
loaf can be made one and one-half feet
long, as well as four inches; it will, of
course, be narrower and thinner and
have more crust.-TolO's Topics.

with extraordinary vividness after the
particulars of the tragedy became known
and l distinctly remember that some
one was lurking outside the door and
must have heard my foolish remark.
The quarrel | had with my father oc-
Cured early in the evening. 1t was
perhaps midnight when | returned to
the house. In going upstairs to my
own room had to pass my fathers
door, and noticed that II was wide open
but the room was dark. This was such
an unusual occurrence that went into
the apartment and stumbled over some
thing on the floor. Imagine my horror
and surprise, when, upon lighting the
gas, discovered that it was the body of
my father weltering in his gore. He
had been stabbed number of times,
evidently after a severe struggle with
the assassin. The motive of the crime
was only too apparent in the open safe
which had evidently been rifled, and the
number of papers scattered over the
floor. My first impulse was to cry out
murder, then l remembered the fact of
the party concealed outside the door,
who had evidently heard our quarrel
and the foolish threat had made, and
all at once a horrible fear possessed me,
and, like the coward / was, l fled.
Every word of the story impressed
me as being truth, and l believed him;
but what was to be doneP In vain l
endeavored to persuade him to accom-
pany me home in the carriage. He
said he was lost; that suspicion he
could never remove and guilt of which
he could never prove his innocence had
fastened upon him, and he was ire
trievably lost. After vainly reasoning
with him for some time | left him, ar
ranging to visit or communicate with
him the next day. Well, the long and
short of it was that he was determined
to leave home, and, as l could not per-
suade him otherwise, assisted him to
come to Colorado, promising to send his
wife and child after him, which I did.
Since that time, and for period of sew
eral years, | have labored indefatigably
to solve the mystery, employing the

How Amateur Dress-Makers Can Duplicate

How Amateur Dress-Makers Can Duplicate
Tailor Costumes.
In combining two materials in
dress the amateur dress-maker is adj
vised to- select plain fabric for the
most important parts and figured stuh
or stripes for the accessories. She is
also warned MOTTO purchase too much Of
the figured goods, as a preponderance
of what should be The subordinate fabric
detracts from the elegance of the gown.
The yard of contrasting material can be-
far more effectively arranged than if six
yards were used Flat side panels, or
wide kilt heats on one side, or a mar
row front panel between fan pleats, and
a full silk back breadth between two
similar widths of the other fabric, are
best for the skirt, and there will be
pieces left for the plastron, or anarrow
long vest bias collar and cuffs. Simulat-
ed plain skirts of velvet, velveteen, or
plush can be easily sewed to the founda-
tion,of the skirt, land must not be too deep
all around, though they may extend to
the belt on one side, {
The success of tailor dressesis largely
owing to the fact that they are made of
the best wool stuffs, and, moreover, are
plainly made. This should warn the
amateur to avoid buying cheap wooden
materials, as they are mixed with cot
ton, will soon look shabby, and will not
endure single shower. The we'll
made Atwood gown, on the contrary,
has an unmistakable air of style and
fitness to begin with, and looks none
the worse after seasons wear and in
spite of rough usage.
Bows of braid or passementerie frogs
are put diagonally on the left side
pleats of cloth and homespun dresses.
Clasps of metal or of wood are also
used on the sides of skirts by those who
do not like large buttons.
Tailors outline with braid the curved
seams on the back of basques and
jackets which join the side forms to the
middle forms. Two rows of braid are
laid in parallel curve on Che seam,

New cloth jackets and redingotes
made by tailors have the sleeves flow

Potatoes and Turnips for Colts.

Potatoes, carrots and turnips are good
food for horses, and are said to be ex-
cellent to expel worms from the bowels.
More horses, and especially more colts,
die from worms than is generally sup
posed And the longer farm is used
for breeding horses, or for breeding
sheep or hogs, when these animals are
made a specially, the more surely do
these animals become subject to the
worms that are common TO them.
Whenever you see colt falling away,
becoming dumpish, you may reasonably
expect the cause is worms. If you
would save the colt you must expel the
worms, and it is said that potatoes and
potato Feelings if eaten by colts will de-
stroy the worms. 1t takes time and
patience to get them to eat them. Small
pieces must be sailed little, and put
with bran, or oats, or corn-meal, and
they will soon learn to eat them with
avidity - olman's Rural World.

DON'T YOU THINK SOP

It's all very well to be jolly
When eVerything's goin Just right;
when, in summer, skies showing no hint Of
shadow, the sun shining bright;
When around you your merry friends cluster
With Eesny laugh-bringing lest,
And wherever you turn you discover
The world in its gala robes dressed
But, an It's sublime to be Jolly
When Eirth-loving spirits have fed;
When your path is in gloominess shrouded,
1And the tempest bursts over your heads
When fainter hearts beg you to cheer them,
Enough your own heart be lonely and drear,
And you scarce can help doubling If ever
The darkness will quite disappear.

The earth is and gentle the wind,
when the bees hum their Joy DER the honey
Ihat, hid in the flowers, they find,
when. vying in beauty and fragrance,
He'd roses and white lilies grow,
ana butterflies, splendid in raiment,
through their airy realm fit to and fro,
is dear little songster; but dearer
ls the bird with its joy-giving strain
pndaunted trills loudyand gayly
In spite OF the chill and the rain;
For that to be jolly tbs easy
In sunshine there isn't doubt;
But, an It's sublime to be Jolly
When there's naught to be Jolly about.
