How to Make Claret-Cup.

from tne new lOrk world.
At least one New Yorker in hundred knows
or thinks he knows how to make claret-cup.
One of the most accomplished vivers here
abouts gives this recipe, which may save the
spelling of much good material: For one quart
of claret take the juice of four peeled lemons
and two oranges which have been squeezed into
bowl containing four tablespoonfuls of pow
dered sugar; in this bowl now macerate the
leaves only of six sprigs of mint; then pour in
one pony of Jamaica, two ponies of brandy,
and two of maraschino, or some other cordial;
stir the whole like wild-fre and then pour in
the claret; to the whole then add one bottle of
plain soda, (or one of champagne, if ''cham-
pagne-cup" be desired one pint of rhine wine,
and the peel of cucumber; cut up one small
pineapple and two oranges to garnish the
whole, and pour it in a bowl around one great
lump of ice.

Religious Dogs.
From Our Dumb Animals.

OuI
The famous st. Bernard dogs are very care
fully trained. A traveller who visited some of
the monasteries of the monks of st. Bernard
few years ago found the monks teaching their
dogs from the earliest stages of puppyhood.
Not only is physical aud mental training in
cluded in the teaching, but spiritual culture is
by no means neglected At meal time the dogs
sit in a row, each with tin dish before him CON
tanning his repast. Grace is said by one of the
monks; the dogs sit motionless with bowed head
Not one stirs until the ''Amen" is spoken. If a
frisky puppy partakes of his meal before grace
is over an older dog growls and gently tugs his
ear.

Where Ugliness Has It's Advantages.

TTOIu UHU DUbUOH OOuIItT.
Extreme ugliness is on the list of disqualif-
cations laid down by the medical department
for French conscnpts. Excessive ugliness,"
says the chief of the department, ''makes a
man ridiculous, prevents him from having au-
thonty over his comrades, and leaves him NOR
bid and sensitive" "Mal hysteria" is another
plea for excuse from military service. The
army doctors say it exists among French con-
scripts, and it is the more Objectionable as it is
contagious

Scratching Matches on Glass.

AiOiAA ehS ADi IOiSeIdpus
At cigar stand last week the Telegraph
scribe saw man scratch match on a convent
ent pane of glass, and to his surprise it lighted
as readily as though the glass had been sand
paper. To those who have been accustomed to
seeing people search for rough surface ON
which to scratch a match it would be rather
startling. Not only ordinary matches, but even
the safety matches, usually unlightable except
on the box in which they come, can be lighted
on glass.

mark which was printed in the Record.

Some cities of old contended for the honor of
having been HoMER's birthplace. Now two
cities contend for the honor of being the burial
place Of GRANT. The city which was originally
given that honor has shown itself unworthy of
it, and the country demands that the remains
be removed to a more fitting resting place.
New York only emphasizes her unworthiness
by threatening to make an unseemly resist
ance.

The fact that the Knights of Labor have been
worsted in the contest with the New York Cen
tral Railroad will not cause the friends of the
Workingmens organizations so much regret as
Will the manner in which the strike has been
handled by the labor leaders. The latterdo not
seem to have at any time been in control of
their forces nor to have fully grasped the stu
alton Their course was not decisive, and their
last move Of calling out all the Knights in the
employ of the road was in the highest degree
unwise. Nothing could, apparently, be gained
by it, while they ran the risk of making them
selves thoroughly ridiculous and of forfeiting
whatever respect the rank and file Of the or
ganization still retained for them. The truth is
that the Knights organization is not sufficiently
compact to enter on a contest with such a DOW
erful corporation as the great VANDERBILT
road with fair show Of success. This being
true, the leaders should have the wisdom to re-
frain from ordering strike, as each unsuceess-
ful contest of this kind is bound to discourage
their followers and injure the cause in every
way. And finally, no strike should ever be or
dered unless the grievance is great and of a
nature that will appeal to the sympathy of the
general public.
