HEAVENLY MESSENGERS.


Oh, lovely sunbeams through the meadows
dancing
On golden pinions all the livelong day,
kissing young leaves, on crystal strcamlets
glnncing,
Changing to living gold their silver spray;
Wee amorous elves, coquetting with the roses,
Woong the daisy in her grassy bed
Till the shy flower unconsciously uncloses
Her dew w-gemmed leaves, and bushes rosy
red
Gliding gray rocks, on rugged mountains
streaming,
Bidding the flowers in sheltered hooks
awake,
Calling young song-birds from their happy
dreaming,
Waking the laughter of the dimpling lake;
Playing "Bo-peep" amid the white buds
blowing
In pearly clusters on the hawthorn tree,
To the round eyes of wondering childhood
showing
The rapid journeyings Of the wandering
bee!
Shedding halo bright on youthful tresses,
Bidding young hearts for very rapture
sing,
Touching the brow of care with kind caresses,
Or glinting lightly on the skylarks wing.
All, merry sunbeams, like sly Cupids straying
In the glad footsteps of the rustic lass,
| On sun tlnned cheek and snow white kerchei
playing,
Twinklng like firefes in the emerald grass
Oh lovely sunbeams, like blest angels glid
ing
Through courts of squalor, sickness, want
and gloom.
Telling of clouds like golden chariots riding
Proudly majestic DER world OF boom!
OF winding lanes, and milk-white homestead
peeping
Like modest virgins from secluded bowers
OF shallow pools, and baby streamleti lear
ing
In giddy gladness meath down. .droopin
flowers.
On the poor children playing in the gutter,
Nursed amid hardship, bitter tears, an
signs,
Kissing their rags like loving friends y
futter,
Warming their limbs, and sparkling
their eyes!
When from the dust they raise their beamin
faces,
Once pnched and wan, now radiant wit
delight,
Ye love to show thousand fairy graces
That want and squalor have no power
blight.
Dance, lovely sunbeams, thro ugh fair cou
try meadows,
Bathe hall and cottage in your holy light
c From city slums 20 chase the mournf
e shadows
G That fill poor homesteads with etern
E night
To those who pine in ignorance and sorrow
May all your tenIerest holest gifts
given,
; That sorrowing hearts one ray of hope mi
borrow
= In the sweet knowledge that ye come frc

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
Ivory Gloss on Wood.

There are two kinds of varnish used
to produce this white gloss-one a So
luton of colorless resin in turpentine,
the other in alcohol For the first, pure
copal is taken; for the second, sixteen
parts of sandarac are dissolved in suf-
iicient strong alcohol, to which arc
added three parts of camphor; and
lastly, when ali are dissolved by shak-
ing, five parts of Venetian turpentine are
added. In order to cause the color to
remain a pure white, care must be taken
not to mix the oil with the white paint
previously put on. Best French zinc
paint mixed with turpentine is to he
employed When dry, this is rubbed
down with and-paper, and this is fol
lowed with the application of the var
nish above described. American CnHt

Puddings and Pies.

When boiling puddings be sure that
the pudding bag is perfectly clean: DIP
it in hot water, then dredge it well with
-four. If a bread-pudding tie it loose
if a batter pudding tie it nearly close;
fruit puddings should be tied quite close.
When you make batter pudding first
mix the flour well with milk and stir in
the other ingredients by degrees; you
will then have it smooth and quite free
from Jumps. Another good way IS to
strain it tn ough a coarse hair sieve.
Be sure the water boils when you put
your pudding in and that it keeps boiling
all the time. Keep it well covered with
water, and move it about several times OF
it may stick to the kettle. When you
take it out dip Immediately in cold
water, which will prevent it from adher-
ing to the bag. If you boil the pudding
in dish or basin, butter the inside be-
fore putting it IN; the same should be
done Tor baked pudding or PIE.
The quality of pie crust depends a
great deal on the baking. If the oven
be too hot, paste, besides being burned,
will fall if too cool, it will be soddened,
and, OF course, heavy. Paste should be
made on cool, smooth board or piece
of marble, with a light, cool hand.
Some cooks mix it with steel knife.
Great nicely is required in wetting the
paste; too little moisture makes it dry
and crumbly, while too much makes it
heavy and tough. Practice alone can
tell the required amount to use.
Before commencing 10 make paste FOL
puddings or pies it is necessary TO place
near at hand everything likely to Ic
needed, to inspect all the utensils, tC
prepare all the ingredients, and, mos
important of all, to wash the hand ano
nails perfectly clean. Always use good
sweet butter, drippings or lard for paste
Some persons think that butter which
cannot be eaten on bread will do very
we'll for cooking purposes, which is
great mistake, as the baking or boiling
Of rancid fat increases the bad flavor
Make two or three holes in the cover o
pies that the steam may escape. IL
make good puff paste rub quarter of
pound of butter with half quart o
iiour, very fine; make it into ligh
paste with cold water; roll out quaGte
of an inch thick, put layer of butte
all over, sprinkle on little flour, double
it up and roll it out again, repeating
four or five times, using in all n hal
pound of butter. r.-DstrOh Free Press.

Game Fowls for the Table.


The Farmers Magasiae holds that the
game fowl is superior to all Others for
the table. Being strictly thorough
bred fowl it has consequently bred true
for more than hundred years, and, as
it has been used for the pit, the objects
sought by breeders to fit it for such
purpose have been the cause Of its
superiority for the table. Hard, com.
pact, but light bone was required, and
therefore the o.ial is lessened. Strong
muscular development became prom
ineut and the bones were thus heavily
covered with flesh of rich, juicy
character the thighs being particularly
so, and the breast full. There Is an old
proverb that "the game possesses more
meat for its weight than any other fowl, y
which is true. Those who have used
the coarse grained fowls, no matter how
fat they were, will at once distinguish
the flesh of game fowl, if comparison
could be made. The games grow slowly,
but they are solid and firm, for it seems
as if nature intended to pack every
ounce of flesh on them into the smallest
space For market, they are perhaps not
| as profitable as some other kinds, but III
places where the chicken must supply
the place of the turkey, the game come;
nearer the desideratum than anything
| else

Good RYe. Gazette.

The daily Gazette, has at last, full
filled prophecy and gone to its rest,
passed in its checks, turned up its toes,
said its valedictOry, gone glimmering
in short, died. 1t was with bitter
scalding tears and an aching heart that
the REFLECTOR learned of it's demise,
For nearly two years We have fought
the journalistic battle by its side. The
two dailies have exchanged taffy,
traded news, and nailed lies in each
others columns with the most perfect
friendliness and good will. We have
done our share. We have called its
editor as hard names as it has ours;
ridiculed its ''breaks" as much as it
has ours; crowed over our scoops as
much as it has over its own; in fact the
REFLECTOR and Gazette have been the
most kindly enemies, and we are hear
tily sorry to see it stop.
Abilene ought to have better appre-
ciated the benefit of morning paper
for the advertising it gave the city.
She ought to have supported it better
than she did, irrespective of its poll
tics.
Now that after nearly four years of
struggling against adversely the Ga
zette suspends, many will miss it. The
REFLECTOR is left the only daily paper
between Manhattan and Denver and
while the decease of the Gazette widens
our field we sincerely regret losing ''our
e. c." and will hold it and its long list
of genial attaches in pleasant remem-
brance. Peace Oe to its ashes.
