How to Carve.

Poultry requires more careful carving
than anything else brought to the tab c.
A chicken roasted may be removed from
the dish to the carver's plate; and as
fowls are generally served in couples,
this does not disarrange the economy of
the table. The fork should be placed on
the centre Of the breast, and the knife
be carried down along the SIDE Then,
inserting the knife under the leg, cut
downwardi as far as the tail, and
separating the ligature near the point,
when, jerking the leg back, the parts
will give way. Next separate the wing
with the edge of the knife, and carry it
through to the other side, when the
wing is easily detached. Separate the
other wing and leg in the same way.
The wishbone is easily removed by in
serting the knife under it and bending
it back. Remove the neck bones by
putting the fork through them aud
wrencbing them carefully away so as not
to break them. The breast must next
be separated by cutting through the
ribs. Turn the fowl back upwards on
the plate and cut it up.
Turkey may be served the same way
as chicken, excepting that as the breast
is the most delicate part and affords
many good slices, these should be cut
lengthwise. and with thin portions of
the dressing handed round first. When
the turkey is large the whole of the
breast may be served in such slices.
When carving duck the slices from
the breast are cut, then the leg is re-
moved by cutting, then the wing.
Ducklings are carved in the same way as
pigeons.
Pigeons are usually carved in four
pieces, dividing each piece in half.
Many persons cut them through the
middle lengthwise and serve half the
bird to each person. Dstroit FREE Press.

BARRIERS IN GERMANY.


The Human Face Cleaned by Six Sweeps
of the Razor.
In the average barber shop of Ger
many you are seated in a rude chair,
with mysterious arrangements for the
head which you never find quite in the
right place, and the officiating artist
winds his razor about your face with a
vehement sweep that would cause,
should think, nervous prostration in
one who had disturbed his nerve CEN
ters by forms of industry not COM
mended by medical advisers. The
friction of the swift razor, keenly wip-
ing the skin, is. however. sufficient to
fix the attention of the patient closely
and spare him from imaginary evils.
One confidential young German of my
acquaintance could shave the average
sized American face with, think, six
sweeps of the razor. l have known
him to do this, and when the deed was
done he seemed to think his work was
accomplished, but on being admonished
that the situation was unsatisfactory,
he would dip the corner of towel. not
selected from pile of fresh ones. in a
shallow basin of water and rub the
sharply-cleansed and smarting cheeks
softly twice, using three fingers each
time. When any thing more was want
ed he understood it to be the applica-
ton of vinegar" an aromatic and
piquant fluid, which makes distinct
impression on the skin just reaped.
That young man could never be in
duced to dress the hair unless after
cutting or shampooing. There was a
small comb in the neighborhood that
the customer was at liberty to apply to
his own looks. and that finished the
proceedings. 1t is proper to say that
the price of the operation was only
Ave cents, and that the shaving,
though rapid and rough, was not bad
in itself, while the artist was, in his
non-professional capacity, a truly
pleasant youth. who painted in water
colors when unoccupied by his rasping
trade. -Murat Halstead, in Cincinnati

4 WONDERFUL WOMAN.

-. AT the Prominent characteristics of
the Late Maria Mitchell.
From an open letter on Maria Nit
abell. the astronomer, by Anna G.
Brackett, in the Century, we quote tho
following: Nothing was more char
acteristic of her than the way in which
,he accepted the position and the sal
sry offered her, without ever thinking
to inquire whether the salary was the
,ame as that given to the other pro-
lessons. It WAS the chance to work
that she wanted, the chance for in
auence in one OF the first colleges for
women. The money she was to re-
ceiye was minor consideration, and
quite as characteristic was her indig-
nation when, after being there for
considerable time, her attention was ct
last called to the fact that she, ma
turs woman, with European fame.
was receiving salary less than thai
paid to some OF the professors who
we're young men, almost entirely with
out experience. and quite destitute Of
reputation. The indignant protest,
which then called for an equal salary,
wm not personal affair. She famed
out in behalf of all women, and of abb
stract justice. with a glow which
forced an immediate increase in salary.
The excuse for this injustice aust be
found first in the fact that, at the time
when Vassar College was established,
women had not proved what they can
10 In professional lines, and. second. in
The very conservative influences which
guided the policy Of the institution. In
her religious belief Maria Mitchell was
attached to one OF the so-called liberal
scots. The children of tho old Quaker
families of Nantucket generally went
over to the Unitarians If they departed
from the strict faith of their fathers. so
that in this matter also she was almost
not quite alone at Vassar. But she
was appointed on the ground of her
reputation as an astronomer. and for
sunate was it for the college that the
question Of her religious belief was not
raised till after her appointments.
THE absolute truth which. as have
aaid, was the keynote of her character,
could not fail to make her teaching
thorough, for a love Of truth is one and
the same, whether in the intellectual or
the moral sphere. But, as with all
true teachers, it was the force of her
personal character that Sected most
upon the young women with whom she
came In contact. No one of them but
vss lifted and strengthened by her
strength, sincerity and single hearted
ness. 1t was difficult for her to use d.
plomacy in ever SO small degree, and
what skill in it she did gain was the
outcome OF long years of experience,
ana she never employed it without q
mental protest. She gave the New
england stamp to whatever thing she
touched. and the lines OF influence she
mas left on many characters are as in
oehole as those on the rock surfaces oil
New England's granite hills"
