EGGS IN ALL STYLES.

Six Hundred Ways in France to Cook
 This Modest Wand.
 The French cuisine is said to boast no fewer than six hundred distinct modes of dressing eggs, says the London Telegraph, and g very considerable proportion of these recipes has lately been communicated to the British public in an opuscule written by the accomplished ''chef" of the Duke of Bedford. As rule, however, 1t may be said that ordinary middle-class English people know little, If any thing, about such subtitle prep arations as "oeufs Ia duchesse," Ia Ia Bourguoigonne," "a Ia Philipshourg," ''a leau de rose," Ia Ia Coigny," or tau Pere Douillet." We are content to take our eggs as we take our pleasures, gravely and somewhat sadly. Yet eggs and bacon have not ceased to be a National dish. "Buttered eggs" "curried eggs" and scrambled eggs" lind g place in our "cuisine bourgeoise." Minced mutton is not considered complete without a tho poetic cook put it. :'as . buttercup in the meadows of spin ach," and we use legions of hard-boiled eggs in salads and mayonnaises of veal and ham pies, while curried eggs sometimes make their appearance on the breakfast table, and eggs filled with forcemeat of anchovies and other ingredients are becom- ing favorite "savory'' at the end of din- ner. The plain boiled egg, however, is an aliment which is consumed to much larger extent in England than in France, for the simple reason that at thelr first breakfast the French rarely take any thing beyond "oafe gu lait" and bread and butter, while at their second repast, or ''dejeuner Q Ia fourchette," plain boiled eggs or ''oeufs 2 Ia coque" are only occasionally served, whereas at their early breakfast English. men scarcely think that they have dis charged their duty to society pnleAs they To the p,oaigioasa af number 1n1b of shells which arc cracked every morning between eight and nine o'clock must be added the equally astonishing number of eggs used in the making of buildings and cakes, the con
 sumption of which is comparatively re

TRICKS OF BEGGARS.

Ono of tho Most Rocsnt Dodges Practiced
 by Professional Mendicants.
 If some of the people who make living by begging would turn their wits into other channels they would, perhaps, soon become prosperous, says the Chicago Journal. Tho skillful and successful beggar seems to be a man of not few ideas, for tha warm com. petition in his business compels him to keep up with the times. He is constantly casting about for some new scheme which he may put into operation in order to work upon the generosity of men. There is something peculiarly insolent and reckless about most professional beggars. They seem to think that man will respond to a call for aid if they show ingenuity in their manner of approaching him. Many of them after taking mans money do not hesitate to show certain air of contempt for him, while not infrequently they pour forth a torrent of abuse if they are repulsed. If you stop one of the wretches, after giving him ten cents, and ask him If his story is true, it Is likely that he will tell you that he
 lied to you. He seems to tako pleasure in letting you know that he is shrewd enough to deceive people,
 One of the most recent schemes noticed by the writer is that of rather decent looking fellow who goes up to man and tells him with apparent frankness that he mas Just Deen foleaSeQ rom prison a1tcl serving sentence for forgery. If he car hold his victim's attention long enough he explains the circumstances of his crime conviction and punishment. These stories vary greatly. No doubt the fellow fashions them to fit the case in hand.

FOND OF HUNTING.
Queer Specimen of Humanity Enc0un

A queer specimen or Humanity EnCOOnts
 cred in North Carolina.
 Wid Medford was an old hunter of North Carolina, who had many stories to tell, and a lingo of his own in which to tell them. The author of ''The Heart of the Ale ghanies" asked him whether 6 black bear would ever attack 8 man. "Hit bends on circumstances" was the answer. "He wouldn't tech the illest human Jess he was cornered an he'd to fight his way out, or he war wounded, or hit war an ole she with cubs. In sich cases look out, I say.
 'I memorize one time thet war in tight box. Hit war down on Pigeon. whar the laurel is too thick for covey O partrid ges ter rise from.
 ''Thar war one straight trail an' l war in it. My gun war empty. I heered the dogs l-comin' an' knowed without axin' thet the bar war afore lem.

CHAPTER XXI.

A FA1RY GODtAVHEh.
 There was very quiet wedding at the bankers stately homo few weeks later. Mir. Everleigh would have deferred it year had the matter been left to him, but when did he ever deny any wish which Althea ex- presseda And Lyman, feeling himself very unworthy, very humble, had his happiness crowned by that great gift of love which he had thought to renounce when he strayed away from tho path of honor, but which had come to him freely when he returned tolthat path of his own accord.
 Only the near friends of the bride and groom were present-Carol and Norris, as matter of course-and Uncle Amos beam ing his approval upon the scene.
 Though did feel cut up when I heard of it first, Everleigh," he confided to his old friend; "do you know that had my heart set upon my boy and your girl malz- ing m atch of it, but that little Carol has bewltched him, can see; SO it's all for the best. They'll have to wait awhile, till Norris makes start, but he'll do it; that detect i've business shows that he has the stuff in him. / think it rather pity that he don't care to follow that line; but 1 tell you what 1t is, Everleigh, you'll have him for your partner yet,'' prophesied the little man, | with 9 pardonable enthusiasm, which | brought smile to the bankers face. "I shall not want a better one, Amos, Bince Lyman has chosen to go back to his | clerkship. Of course, it was all that could be done at this time, but don't mind tell | ing you that have scheme to benefit them both one of these days"
 The scheme was to admit the two young | men, upon their merits, to an interest in the business, but it was not left to Mr. Everleigh's generosity to bring about that end. .... | The marriage ceremony was over, the wedding breakfast ditto; in half an hour more the newly-wedded pair would depart | upon their bridal journey, when the bell rang, and visitor was shown into the li- hrary who had business with the bridegroom.
 The brides glance followed him anxiously as he left the room; Carol, too had vague fear of some impending disaster, and Norris read her thought in the slight cloud which came over her fair young face.
 "There is nothing to fear" he said, reas- suringly. "Lyman's troubles are all over; he kept nothing back, so there is nothing tc come up against him now.7T
 4 mist came into the eyes lifted to his.
 "How good you have all been to my brother! No one seems to hold his fault against him, yet believe that very fact makes him fee! it all the more. Think how hard it is for him not to be perfectly happy, oven today" +-S~'F =,

 He had raised his head; he was looking Ter straight in the face now with mournful .arnestness, as he declared how utterly he lad given up all hope.

While Tiberius was luxuriating at
Capree, an artist, who labored under
the emperor's d~ispleasure, discovered
the composition Of malleable glass,
and making a vase of the most ex-
quisite beauty, the secret of whose con
struction was known only to himself,
he begged leave to present it. The
emperor stood with his court about
him, and when he had returned the
vase, which had excited universal
wonder, the artist, to every ones con
sternation, threw IL violently on the
earth. The first emotion in the circle
must have been that the man was
mad, the next hal the S was in
splinters; to every ones surprise it
was simply a little dented on n side,
and the artist with q few slight taps Of
his hammer restored it at once to its
original shape. The emperor, think
ing that an art which could do SO
much with common sand and a few
other equally common materials
would naturally diminish the value of
gold and silver and brass, instantly or
dered the artist to execution .-Har.

WOMEN IN PRISON.

How the Poor Creatures Crafty the
Tastes That Seem 10 BE Second Nature
Compulsion is the woman convict's
drop Of bitterness. The complete NOR
LITIGATION of that harmless sort of van
ity which fills so much Of a woman's
life, makes her duranoe doubly vile.
All her fine feathers are sacrificed
ruthlessly. Her hair, which she has
apostolic authority for regarding a
an ornament, is shorn of its last lock
as soon as her cell has been allotted to
her, and the face which has gazed with
perfect passiyeness, almost TO rouse a
country's admiration, and the tongue
that has been mute under the finding
of jury and sentence of judge, are
raised to plead pathetically with the
holder of the scissors, while the corri-
doris sometimes ring again to the
piercing cries for asparing pity as the
memorable shearers gather their har-
vest of curls.
But spring returns, and the hair re-
news itself, and before the next shear
ing day the girls grumble that a
thoughtless administration provides
them with no hairpins. One woman,
whose hair continued to be suspicious
" Respondent, as of macassar, after
weeks of incarceration, a ar object
of some wonderment, even TO the chap
lain, until she explained to him in
confidence hat she allowed her broth
TO cool, and then SKINNED off the fat
to glitter in her crown of glory.
Another girl certainly rouged, and
rouge tells effectively on the pallor of
prison confinement. Great was the
envious indignation of her sisters in
servitude against n frivolity so unat
tainable, but greater still, perhaps,
was the curiosity to discover how the
accomplishment of such a frivolity
could be attained. AT length it was
discovered that the red shreds woven
among the blue shirts which she had
TO sew would, when drawn out and
chewed, yield the bloom yearned after
by the cheek of beauty.
The manner in which nearly every
woman finds it possible to disarrange
and double one of her underskirts and
present the destinations of a crinolette
is so comic that it has been known to
wiring n smile from that gravest
among men-a prison chaplain. And
a woman without a looking glass;
Only the austerest and severest orders
of nuns that. And perhaps
it is the female prisoners most oppres-
sive penance, for the relief of which
she is even willing 10 risk the impo-
sition Of extra punishment-a task the
more, a meal the less.
BY an accident, which she declares
she will regret for a lifetime, she has
broken q window. The hole is there,
sure enough, but where is the de-
tached glass. Days after this is found
concealed in a corner of her cell, and
behind it a strip of dark cloth, her
substitute for quicksilver. And all
for WHAT There are no male hearts
to break and few males y to see
only those of governor, chaplain and
doctor.-Sau Francisco Argonaut.

A Lewiston little boy declared a
philosophic independence and accepted
the consequences in so matter of fact
a way iasi ~9ek that it may make a
story even if it is not SO funny. His
mother dressed him up in a new fan
mel shirt Friday and sen him to
school. The shirt irritated his c~uticle,
or in other words he itched. When he
came home that night he was cross,
and very cross for so small a boy, and
he declared he and the flannel had
parted company forever.
The next morning, as his mother
prepared to dress him for school the
boy drew the line at the shirt. No"
said he, II don't wanter Wear that
shirt" 4 brief debate ensued, in
which the boy appeared TO have
formed his opinion and to have de
cided to stick to it. The question when
put to the house was carried by the
boy who would not don the shirt. "If
you will not wear il, " said his mother,
Il shall send you back to bed" Back
to bed he went He got no dinner.
Afternoon came. A neighbor wentin
to see him, his mother telling her that
she had a bad boy upstairs. The boy
lay there IN bed, wide awake, his little
cheeks flushed with the situation, but
showing no sign of change of heart.
Don't you want to go to school1"
asked the neighbor. School" was
the reply; Il shall never go TO school
again. Don't you want tot" Yes,
but | can't. I've got TO stay here"
"All your life7' 'Yes'm," was the
reply, all my life. l shan't ever get
up again, probly." What could a

sophie an acceptance of the termination
of a life career as thisl What but
