One good housewife about six months ago
lost a valuable cook who had been in her
employ for many years, and she had tor
msnting experience before she secured
another that approached her. After tryi ing
a half dozen she hired one day likely wom-
am who came well recommended, and said
she had been walking around for week
looking for a place and seemed glad
to find employment again. Being told thai
she would be expected to prepare light
supper on Sundays, sheindignaatly replied;
mo, indeed, ma'am, you cant git me to
cook nothing on Sunday evenin' fer no
body" She then switched off to look for
another place

STORY OF A CHICKEN.
A Plymouth Rock Fowl With a Re-

From the Rome tGd.) Tribune.
About two months ago, when the steamer
Warlick was far up the Oostanaula river,
Capt. Mitchell purchased coop Of chick
ems. Among them was very small one
that seemed sick and almost ready to die
The liind-hearted captain ordered the
chicken t. be turned loose on the deck. So
the dropping" little one was given freedom.
Is began to regain its health at once and
put on new plumage. The result was
mat it became a great pet on the
boat Of all the crew. When the
boat stopped at landing it got into the

something green 10 eat. Sometimes IL

WASHINGTON COOKS.
How tho Colored Culinary Artists Rule
the Statesmen's Wives.

Inc STATESMEN b WlV6S.
from the Ncrc York GraphIc
As a rule cooks and other household help
in Washington are negroes, and the white
servant comparatively scarce. The supply
is drawn chiefly from Virginia and
MARYLAND, but as Washington became the
negro's paradise about the time the Freed
mans Bureau was established, they came
here from all parts Of the south, but of
course Virginia and Maryland, on account
of the proximity to the national capital,
furnished larger quotas than any of the
other states. A great prize in the eyes of
a proud Washington houseKeeper of means
is TO secure genuine old Virginia cook--an
cold aunty' as they are calle1-one who
hasn't 100 many uew-faDgled notions, and
rs willing TO work and who takes delight
in preparing delicious home meals, such as
she used TO serve up 'fo' de fall Of Rich
mon,n as SO many OF the darkeys here ex-
press it. 1t must not be inferred that there
are no good cooks among the younger gene
rations, tor there are, and Of recent years
negro men have been cultivatng the art of
cooking, and negro male cook, while EN-
pl0yel chiefly at hotels and restaurants in
this capital city, are also being utilized
the homes A darkey is SO fond Of good
eating tnat 1t is but natural they should cul-
tivate toe art of improving themselves SO
Younger set are not so reliable and steady
as the old-timers who we're trained IN sav-
cry days, but they do quite well considering
ii tue circumstances. and If housekeper
is q fairly good manager there isn't really
much trouble in securing here Il good co0S.
The wife Of "A western republican senator
saws that when she was small
girl she used to hear her aged grand
mother talk Of dishes that were peculiar to
Virginia, her grandmother having gone
wess from that state. Toe senator's @ifo
had almost forgotten these dishe but on
coming TO Washington 20 live she employed
a negro woman as her cook, and it was not
long before 'oid aunty" was placing before
her some Of the dishes she had heard her
grandmother speak Of. "Od auntyp has
succeeded in changing completely the diet
of her western employers, and they arc so
fond now of the new way Of eating things,
so far as they are concerned, that they pre-

THE OLD BEAR RAN.
The Mother and Cubs Fight, but the
Head of the Family Skips.

HEAD OF the r aullly ohIpS'
From, the West BotceruiAe tGd) Union.
Last Tuesday morning Warren Schell of
Somerville noticed that the grass in one of
his fields, about quarter of mile from
the house, looked as if some animal had
been eating 1t and suspected that sheep
had got in. but on looking around he saw
traces OF bears, the presence of which on
his farm he had not suspected About D
o'clock in the evening he returned to the
spot armed with his Winchester repeater,
and, upon cautiously approaching, found
whole family Of bears in the field. The
two old ones were quietly grazing; the
cubs which were about two months old,
were jumping and playing around their
mother.
AS Mr. Schell crept nearer, he saw that
the she bear was watching him, although she
kept eating, and he thought it best to settle
her first, as being likely to prove more dan
gerous than her mate. He accordingly
whistled, which caused her TO raise her
head, and he planted bullet in her breast
at which she rushed furiously toward him.
Firing a second time, he again struck her IN
the breast, and she turned and fled, but just
as she was getting over the fence, the third
bullet from his rifle entered the back of her
head, and she fell 10 the ground mortally
wounded. She growled and struggled for
some time and bit through a balsam root
four inches thick that happened to be
within her reach. Mr.. Schell then turned
his attention to the cubs, one of which rose
on his launches and showed fight, while the
others climbed to the top of the fence and
watched the dying mother. A bullet apiece
killed them, and as the last one fell, the he
bear, which had made no attempt TO defend
his family, turned tail and ran for his life.

HIDING TIE EGG.
A Practical Joke Perpetrated on a
Wrig htsville Negro.


From the WriqhtsUite (Ga.J Headlight.
A laughable incident occurred while the
train was waiting for time at our depot the
other day. Capt. Lingo and Engineer La
nier came in contact with very conspicu-
GUS colored individual of our community,
yclept George Washington, and after some
conversation proposed, for a wager, to play
the game of "hiding the egg" The joke
lies in putting the egg in the victims hat,
and the hat on the head, and then making
bet with a supposed outside party That he
cannot find the aforesaid egg. Capt.
Lingo, with the INNOCENT George Wash
ington disappears behind the coach, the
ancient edition of the delect,ble hen
fruit is snngly laid away in the crown of
g. WIS hat, and he walks forth to be
searched for the "hidden treasure" After
a careful and apparently diligent search of
the darky's old clothes in quest of the egg,
Lanier raises his hand and coming down on
the eggman's head, with George, dGggep il
can find itr jumped on his engine and
pulled out for Tennile Imagine the
darky's appearance and feelings with the
output of an ancient egg ttickling down
the sides of his face promiscuously, and hi
attempts to preserve his imaginary dignity

with perfume rivaling in distinctness thu

Secret OF crystallfzea Figs.

.One of the cleverest mercantile dodgee
that. has been played in this town in
many a day is the wscrystallized fig
racket. Cheap, marvelously cheap, crys-
tallized figs have recently invaded the
fruit stores, the groceries, the street
stands. The usual price for crystallized
fruit is from zoe. to SOC. a pound. This
new variety Of figs sells at.,20c.
When you try them they are not very
delicate in flavor, hut still they are not
bad, and answer the purpose with people
wanting something sweet very well, and
they are having an immense sale because
the conjunction of ahe words "crystal-
iDed figs" with 1t20e.", was so remark
able it gave them a big "ad." The
cleyuness comes In in the fact that they
are not crystallized figs at all.
a firm Of confectiSners got the idea
from;s girl in their employ, it is said, of
running a cheap sort of fig jam or paste
into molds roughly resembling a fig,
coating them with sugar and calling
hem.orystallized figs The jam ,cr paste
is good enough cheap ,confection, but
they might have spent years and fortunes
trying to get 1t on the market without
achieving the success they have made
now without the expenditure of o penny
in advertising.-New York Graphic

why Time Passes So Swiftly.

John belongs to race whose members
for centuries have enjoyed the proud dis
tinction Of being permitted to speak
dwice, but that is a privilege which John
has never yet attempted to avail himself
of. Theother day he worked 80 steadily
that he too mo note of the flight of time
and the closing hour arrived before he
was able to realize that the afternoon
was half gone. "Well, well, well, " said
the old man, in a bewildered sort of
fashion, ''it must be true, as I've heard,
that the days grow shorter as a man
grows older. can't understand how it
is that hours slip by so fast" He stood
for q moment in silent and almost MOURN
full contemplation. Then the light of an
idea slowly diffused itself over his broad,
honest face. THAT'S it," he said, still
in a reverie, CHATS it. 1t must be them

so fast. "---"Rambler" in Brooklyn Eagle.

Moral Teaching I'm Schools.

One very good plan is something like
thefollowing: From two to four pupil
areselected, and it is made the duty OF
eachto look up and copy a short moral
sentiment or maxim to he read at the
opening of the school in the morning.
Another set is selected to present similar
maxims the next day, and in this way
all the pupils are selected in turn. When
the pupil has read or repeated his senti-
ment to the school it is illustrated or
compaented upon by the teacher till the
meaning is not only clear but well i'm
pressed. After the reading of the senti-
ner1ts they are copied ON the black board,
wbere they remain all day, and eacl,
pupil in the room copies them into a
blank book. After the first day the
teacher calls upon volunteers to repeat
the sentiments given ON preceding days.
Five or six sentiments may be called up
In review each day.
Some pupils, not much accustomed to
general reading, may find it difficult to
look Jup new sentiments; but let it be
understood that if new one cannot be
foundan old one will be accepted. Under
judicious management there will be no
trouble here. Children do not like to be
parrots, repeating the words of their
mates; and when review sentiments are
presented they will be quite sure to be
such as deserve repetition.-Mary e.
Beedyiin The Century.
