Harriet Bcecher Stowe.

A special to the Examiner dated New
York, August 81, says:
Harriet Beecber Stowe has removed
from her longtime residence in Hart
ford to farmhouse near Sag Harbor,
Long Island. Her health has become
alarmiDgly bad, and the decline is ac-
compnnied by mental eccentricity. Al
ways original and characteristic she has
now become 80 peculiar that her reln-
tives deem it best to keep her in retire
ment for while. That she will re-
cover from her physical illness is not
thought likely, but an imm ediate demise
is not looked for. The decrepItude Of
old age has come upon her. She is
stopping ut the residence of Captain
Lewis Corwin, an acquaintance of half
a lifetime, and brother Of one OF the
late Henry Ward Beecher's stalwart
parishioners.
Mira. Stowe is almost seventy-six
years old. Until few years ago she
retained her mental power to surpris-
ing degree, but la:terly it has declined,
and now sho is little like her former
self. An over estimate OF her famous
book "Uncle Toms Cabin" has grown
upon her until she is INCIDENTALLY pos
sessed by delusions. Her principa !

A Receipt for Cooking Husbands.

Miss Corson said at the Baltimore cook
ing school that Baltimore lady had
written recipe for Cooking husbands
50 as to make them tender and good
1t is as follows: A good many husbands
are utterly SPOILED by mismanagentcnt.
Some women go about 1t as if their hus.
bands were bladders and blow them up.
Others Keep them constantly In hot
water; Others let them freeze by their
carelessness and Indifference. Some
keep them IN stew by irritating ways
and words. Others roast them. Some
keep them in pickle all their lives. 1t
cannot b, supposed that any husband
will be tender and good managed in this
way, but they are reallv delicious when
properly treated. In selecting your hus.
band you should not he guided by the
si'v-ev appearance, as in buying mack
evel, nor by the golden tint, as if you
wanted salmon. Be sure to select him
YOURSELF as tastes difier. Do not go to
ma 'ket for him, as the best ere always
h ought 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 if You
have nothing but an earthenware pipkin,
it will do. with cares See that the linen
in which you wrap him is nicely washed
and menled, with fhe required rumbcr
ofbuttons and strings, nicely sewed on.
Tie him in the lcttle by strong silk
cod called comfort, as the one called
duty is apt 20 be weak. They are apt to
fly out of the kettle and be burned and
crusty on the edges, Since, like crabs and
lobslers. YOU have to cook them while
alive. Make clear, steady fire out of
love, ncatness, and chcerfulness. Set
him as near this as seems to agree with
him. If he sputters aud izzes, do not be
anxious; some husbsnds do this till they
are quite done. Add little sugar IN the
form of what confectioners call kisses,
but no vinegar or pepper on any account.
A little spice improves them, but it must
be used with judgment. Do not stick
anv sharp instrument into him to see if
he is becoming tender. Stir him gently;
watch, the while, lest he lie too flat and
close to the kettle and so berome useless
You cannot fail to know when he is done
Ii thus treated, you will find him very
digestiDle, agreeing nicely with you and
the children and he will keep as long as
yoI*want unless you become careless
and set him in TOO cold place.
