Mrs. Sheridan's bereavement is
shared by three young daughters and
the darling, Little PHIL who is des-
cribed as miniature of the departed
hero in appearance and characters
tics. The soldiers widow is an ac-
complished woman and a model
mother. Her children are healthy
and good-looking, well-behaved, and
well instructed.
General Sheridan married late in
life, and his widow is a young and
beautiful woman. In figure she is
straight and well-formed, and her
carriage is queenly. Her features are
regularly formed and eXquisitely
rounded; her abundant hair dark
brown in color. Mrs. Sheridan has
been leader in Washington society,
and, as the wife of the cOmmander-in-
chief, has entertained literally and
with the grace of the finished lady.
She is devout person, and, as was
her deceased husband, a Catholic in
religion. When she became the wife
of the eminent soldier, she was in
troduced into a larger social circle
than that to which she had been ac-
customed. Under these circumstances
she carried herself with chara cteristic
good sense and strength, and before
long had taken her place among the
fair women VINO constitute the best
society of the federal capital. The
lady for whom we all feel the deep
est sympathy in her sad bereavement,
is a daughter of Gen. Rucker.

How to Cook Husband S.

Miss Corson said in the Baltimore
Cooking School that a Baltimore
lady had written q receipt for "cook-
ing husbands so as to make them
tender aud good" 1t is as follows:
A good many husbands are utterly
spoiled by mismanagemen Some
women go about it as if their hus-
bands were bladders, and blow them
up. Others keep them constantly ia
hot water; others let, them freeze By
their careIessness and indifference
Some keep them in a pickle all their
lives. IL cannot be supposed that
any husband will be good aud tender,
managed in this way, but they are
really delicious when properly treat
ed.
In buying your husband do not be
guided by the silvery appearance as
in buying mackerel, nor by the gold
en- tint as if you wanted salmon. Be
sure and select him yourself, as tastes
differ. Do not go to market for him,
as the best are always brought to your
door. 1t is far better to have none
unless you will patiently learn how
to cook him. A preserving kettle OF
the finest porcelain is best. but ii ou
have nothing but an earthenware
pipkin it will do with care. See that
the linen in which you wrap him is
nicely washed and mended, with the
required number Of buttons and
strings nicely sewed on. Tie him in
the kettle by strong silk cord called
comfort, as the one called duty is apt
to be weak They are apt to fly out
of the kettle and be burned and crust
ed the edges, since, like crabs and
Holsters, you have to cook them while
alive Make clear, steady fire out
of love, neatness aud cheerfulness.
Set him as near this as seems TO agree
with him. If be sputters and frizzes
do not be anxious; some husbands do
this until they are quite done Add
little sugar in the form of what con-
fectioners call kisses, but no vinegar
or pepper on any account. DO not
stick any sharp instrument into him
to see if be is becoming tender. Stir
him gently; watch the while, lest he
lie too fat and close to the kettle, and
become useless. You cannot fail to
know when he is done. If thus
treated will fad him digestible agree
ing nicely with you and the children,
and he will keep as long as you want
unless vou become careless and set
him in too cold place.

All Carry Flasks.

1t is the fashion OF the funny man
nowadays to tell in the newspapers
how the whisky flask is q part of
every travellers outfit, until the aver
age American traveller is looked upon
"a a sort bar-room, always ready to
"taEe something" from his own flask.
An Englishman with whom talked
on the train going to Cincinnati a
couple of years ago, stopped in the
middle Of the CONVERSATION and
said:
Pardon ne, but I forgot to get
some whisky before | started Would

| told him | didn't carry one, when
he said with an sir of astonishment,
"Why | thought all Of you Ameri-
cans carried TASKS of liquor when you
Travelled. | read it in the newspapers
and took it to be true"
When I told him be had been fool
ed into believing a very stupid lie he
stroked his whiskcrs and murmur'
ed:

MORNING..

For the CITIZEN.
To greet the day that's just begun.
And dry the tears that night has shed,
That sparkle in the morning sun,
Like diamonds now that night has led,
The feathered songster sings his best,
And MARBLES forth his notes Of gleo
While yet the dew is on his breast,
lis voice is heard in forest tree.
The sunbeams kiss the gliding stream
Tha.'s wandered through the silent night,
Awakes it from its sombre dream,
And floods its face with golden Light
The lambs that skip upon the lawn,
Or gambol in the meadow sweet
Are pleased to see the smiling dawn,
And show their glee in movement heet.
The hills are clothed in summer green,
And lift their heads with forest crowned,
Above the wales that lie between,
Just waking from their slumber sound
The milkmaid trills merry tune,
That's echoed by the mocking bird,
And on the fragrant air of June,
The low of cattle's family heard.
Far in the east the sun is rolled,
In yielding folds Of garments bright;
That change to crimson, then to gold,
Then slowly yanishes from sight.
The morning glories glowing face
Is famed by zepkyrs from the sea.
Plays hide and seek with charming
grace
With leaves that flutter in the breeze.
Blooming flowers, fresh and fair,
Their beauty mIngIe in the scene;
The rose and shrub, perfume the air.
And humming birds their sweetness
CLEAN.
stand awhile in wonder lost,
Nor heed the ever feeting time;
1t seems to fairy lands Ive crossed
Far iuto some supernal cline.
'Tis Gods own hand that wields the brush,
And paints the scenes that charms our
gaze;
Then why should we our voices hush
While nature, loudly shouts his praise.
sometimes think that morning hours
Give us a glimpse Of Paradise;
Or joys that iived in Eden's bowers,
Ere man was stained by guilt and vice.
