GLAMOUR LAND.

All. dim, lost Glamourland!
On whose confines stand
Longing for home that home shall be no more
There stood my palace grand
Where now on either hand,
The fiery swords OF seraphs guard the door.
There once roamed to Gull
Dear hopes more beautiful
Than siren thoughts that musing monks resist
Nothing too far or fair
But its mirage was there
Pictured upon the valley rosy mist.
There each sweet day heard
Songs OF brooding bird,
Telling of purest pleasure yet to be:
There, by the singing streams,
Faint forms of darling dreams
Lotered and fingered hand in hand with me.
All, dim. dear fancy land!
Thy wellSn rainbow-spanned,
The softened light of halcyon hours o'erpast,
Fading away, away,
Ali the expanse is gray
AS fades the summer moon, too fair to last.

WOMAN'S PRIME DUTY.
Some Reasons Why Every Wife Should
Know How to COoii.

One of our bright New York cor
respondents tell us that the latest thing
in Gotham society is the cooking fad
Regular lessons are given and fashion,
able women are taught a practical
knowledge of kitchen duties and are
instructed in the art of preparing a
good dinner of tempting dishes. Crowds
of the best people attend the lectures,
and, as consequence, New YORK is be-
ing greatly benefited.
1t can be set down as plain truth,
which is too often disregarded, that no
woman has a right to take charge of
matrimonial establishment until she
knows how to cook. A large proper
ton of the discomfort and misery of
this world comes from dissatisfaction
and indigestion caused by kitchen
ignorance Men who would try to
carry on business without knowing
anything about it and trusting entirely
to clerks and agents would be consid-
cred fit subjects for some asylum; and
vet there are wives who endeavor to
run households without the least
practical knowledge of cooking. They
give up every thing to servants who
are not ALWAYS Trustworthy and
who do about as they please every day
in the week. The consequence is that
the meals are not prompt. they are in
differently served. the husband. home
from hard days work. is churlish,
and the expense of it all is twice as
great rs it would be if there were an
intelligent supervision. Much of the
increased cost OF housekeeping is di-
rectly due to the lack of attention in
the kitchen. A wife who knows how
to cook can give her family better eat
ing at half the price than one who is
/ ignorant of such work ca do. and she
is always mistress of her servants,
! while her ignorant sister is their slave
/ Such things invariably have an effect
upon the affections of men. for hus-
bands are but human. and the best Of
love is not absolutely proof against the
condition of the table.
We are glad to say that most Mary
land wives are intelligent cooks. The
result is that there are fewer domestic
auarrels. fewer divorces and fewer sep
arations in Maryland than in any other
State in the Union. That is one reason
why home, presided over by Mary
land woman, is an abode OF love and
health-a paradise in which man is
happy and contented. Perhaps there
may be a few of our lovely women who
are not enlightened in this respect. If
so. we pity them and we pity the man
whom they will marry. They should
remember that they may be accom-
plished in music, in art. in dress, in al
the society gIaces. but if they do not
know how to cook they are lacking in
one great essential of useful and sue
cessful wOmanhood.-BdHi -4aaeri-

 MT. .sSperry took for the principal theme of
 his discourse the life and character of Roger
 Williams, the founder of Rhode Island. The
 speaker gave historical account of the life of this famous and sturdy leader and thec- logue of the old colonial days and dwelt at
 some length on the many excellent traits in
 his character. He described how Williams, a Puritan who had fled from the mother country on account of the religious intolerance there and had come to Massachusetts to find that liberty and respect for personal convictions that he so dearly cherished and loved on ind ing the Massachusetts settlers almost as fntol- erant in their way as the zealots of the moth- CT country, he determined to seek new hab itation where all men could come in. and en- joy perfect religious liberty and the right to any belief that appealed to their consciences, The speaker told how Williams, thorough \ ly impressed with the idea that the Indians were human beings and therefore entitled ;te that consideration accorded to otheExt men made friends with the aborigines, by whom he was dearly beloved. Williams, said tht speaker, founded community where all .Mhc agreed to abide by the civil laws made by the majority were welcome to settle, regard less of their religious views and prejudiees This was the first settlement where the gov | ernment of the people. by the people and fol ! the people first prevailed and on the prin oiples of which the government of thil country waa Laid ont. ,.. -.-.-s-.- -.- The speaker then referred to that othel great colony founder, William Penn, and how he. although coming to the new world year. after Williams, followed iu the latser's foot ataps and attained a place in the temple O fame not loweg than that of his predecessor Mir.
