Excess OF Outward Mourning.

We go through great deal of false
sentiment and false politeness in the
matter of our funeral ceremonies and our
mourning attire. In the youthful days
of our present sexagenarians the mark Of
mourning-a piece of black Grape around
the sleeve of q colored coat-was reserved
for the army only. Army and navy off.
GERS alone might make this modest mani.
festation stand in lieu ofthe glossy sables
and deep hat bands of civilians. There
was a howl, as we'll as sneer, when these
civilians adopted the military custom,
and on the sleeve of 8 colored coat stitch.

There are many who set their faces
against the excessive mourning Of by
gone attire. No longer do all widows
even think it necessary to clothe them
selves in Grape and the life long obligation
of the widows black is atan end. Those
who like to cling to the ancient methods
have their will and do their pleasure, but
thoae who do not-those who carry death
in their hearts and do not care to
show it to the world-or those who are
not really deeply aflictsd--may dispense
With mourning altogether, if they have
the mind. Simple black answers all the

The Best He Could.

- ! = 9 :
An i:old farmer in one of the New
England States had son whose actions
sometimes indicated lack Of common
sense; but with natural parental love and
consideration, the old gentleman excused
all his short comings by saying, "He
does the best he can, Jimmy does," which
was perhaps true.
When Jimmy mas twenty.one or
twenty. three years Of age he went to work
for farmer living in a. neighboring
county,
Three months sitter his departure he
surprise ed his parents by writing to
them that he had been married
and would visit them the following
week.
Preparations for receiving the young
couple in manner BETTING the bride
and bridegroom we're at once begun, and
when they arrived they found all che
groom's relatives gathered 10 receive
them.
The bride was a dull looking and
by no means handsome young woman,
and for moment the father-in-law
seemed disappointed; then, his better
nature asserting itself, he greeted
her warmly, and turning to his son
said, with his old time optimistic cheer.
fulness:
"Welcome home, Jimmy; welcome,
my boy; ye did the best ye could,
I've no doubt; welcome home, my
daughter"

Cucumber Pickles.

Cucumbers are vegetables most uni
yersally used for pickles, and there are
several ways of preparing them. Which
method is the best is disputed question.
The time. .honored process given may be
the longest, but probably the majority of
the housekeepers consider it the best.
Choose only gherkins, or small cucum-
bers,a small as your finger. Put them
into an :oaken tub or large stone jar,
and pour on them brine made of rock
salt, and strong enough to hold up
potato. Sink plate in the brine to
keep the cucumbera under the surface,
and at the end of twenty -four hours stir
them up with your hand from the brine;
scald it, and after you have washed the
cucumbers pour it over them. In three
days more repeat the process, and at the
end of the ninth day throw away the
brine, wash the cucumbers in ice.water,
and if they are too sslty, let soak in clear
water several hours, and then drain them.
After this pour cold vinegar over the
pickles, cover them with green cabbage
leaves, add email lump of alum, the
size Of a walnut, to a gallon kettle, and
let the vinegar come to boil. Remove
from the fire at once, and at the end Of q
day or two drain the pickles, and cover
them with cold cider vinegar pure and
strong. If you wish to add spice, put a
cup Of sugar, three dozen whole black
peppers, three dozen cloves, one dozen
blades of mace, and the same amount of
allspiee, to each gallon of vinegar.
These pickles will be handsome green,
which they never will be if they are
taken from the brine, and simply put
into cold or lot vinegar. IF the vinegar
is scslded in which they are put away
for the winter, half the strength passes
off in steam, and the pickles will not
keep so we'll as those put up in cold vim
egar. If the tub or stone jar in which
they we're soaked is used to keep them in,
it should be carefully washed from any
taint of the brine. These pickles will bs
ready for the table at the end of six
weeks. Some would use them sooner,
They are better kept in vinegar three
months before they are eaten.

girl and a self-wllled, tyrannical boy Of
about three years.
"The boy aroused the indignation Of
the passengers by his continued shrieks

her bonnet, scratched her hands, and
finally spat in her face, without word of
remonstrance from her mother.
"WheneYer the nurse manifested any

sharply.
"Finally the mother composed herself
for nap, and about the time the boy had
slapped the nurse for the fftieth time,

catch it.
"The nurse caught his hand, and said
coaxingly:
