Fattening Terrapin without Food.

We get terrapin from little town down
in Maryland, where they are bought up
from the fishermen who catch them in
nets in Chesapeake bay.
"There are diamond backs in other
southern waters-here is one that came
from Savannah-but none are supposed to
have the exquisite taste of those caught in
the Chesapeake"
Glow long will they live?"
For three or four months, and strange
to say get fatter the longer they are kept.
All the food they get is little sea grass
put down for them to waddle about in"
The average terrapin isn't over seven
inches long, and in the shell don't weigh
over two pounds. The late Mr. Wormley.
of hotel fame, was connoisseur in dia-
mond backs, and bought as many as 300 at
time. He put them away in a remote
room, where no light entered, so that they
wouldn't stir about, locomotion being a
hindrance to the fattening process.-Inter
view in Washington Post.

While esnn0t claim that deserve the

the honorable house OF representatives in

will be believed of me that as sitize n
and soldier have steadily labered to

deprecated the late civil war as an
evil only less than the dissolution of the
union and the overthrow of constitutional
liberty. l became a soldier from sense
of patriotic duty. sincerely and pros
foundry deplored the miseries which the
war produced, and from which no por-
ton of our common country was ex>
empt.
l welcomed the return OF peace, and
when the war ceased. eagerly hoped that
citizens of every section of the country,
chastened by common sufferings and an
mated by fraternsl feelings. would unite
IN efforts for the reestablishment of the
rule of justice and law l regret to be
compelled to confess that the expecta-
tons that then entertained of an early
return of the sentiments of unity to the
people of the United States were not re-
allzed, and it was not until the close of
the political canvass in which have late
ly been engaged that it became evident
that the reign of passion and prejudice
had passed and that the people were
again prepared to give close attention to
subjects in which heir present interests
are involved.
While l repeat the expression of my
profound gratitude to the honorable
house of representatives of the state of
Missouri. and to the free people it repre-
sents, for the proof of its respect and
confidence which the language of the
resolution affords nae, will not deny my
self the satisfaction of referring to the
fact that the electors of the state of
Illinois, at the late election by a majority
OF more than $4,000 upon direct appeal
to them, expressed their approval of the
political principles of the great and
patriotic party which nominated me for q
seat in the senate of the United States.
The contest now In progress in Illinois,
which has attracted the attention Of the
house of representatives over which you
preside, is but struggle on the one hand
to give effect to the popular, will, as ex>
pressed in the late election, and, Oh the
other, to defeat it. In such contest the
people Of the state Of Illinois may we'll
hope for the approval and sympathy of
the friends of popular government, not
only in the state OF Missouri, but in all
the other states of the union. have the
honor to be, with very great respect,
your obedient servant,

OH! RIGHTEOUS JUDGE.

There is judge in St. Louis who
deserves we'll of the women of
America. His name is Withrow
and we give it so that the women
may know to whom they are in
debted for a ruling which is of great
value to them.
In a recent divorce case before
this Judge it was shown that the
husband VINO brought the suit had
been separated for some time from
his wife and that he had left his
wife on account of her extreme jeal.
ousy of him. 1t was further shown
that prior to the separation the wife
had frequent occasion to reprove
the husband for not paying enough
attention to ner and too much to
other ladies, and that her throwing
a mirror at him, which was one oil
the charges brought by the husband,
was occasioned by his dancing too
frequently and too iaffectionately
with a young lady after the separa-
ton.
The court denied the divorce and
held that the wife's jealousy was
justifiable, and her throwing of the
mirror, under the circumstances,
excusable. GAS a married man.
the judge said, Giving separate and
apart from his wife, his conduct
should have been such as not to
have given her any just cause of
complaint" This will not only
console deserted wives, but serve as
warning to DESERVING husbands.

A HINT FOR HUSBANDS.

Men who complain of their homes,
too often overlook the TACT that they
are themselves more or less respon-
sible for the atmosphere which PER-
vades every room in it. Considera>
ton for wife is one Of the sweetest
flowers which a husband can grow
and nourish in the home garden.
1t will do more than the costliest
bouquets which he can bring home
from the florists. 1t is the little
things in this world that make life
attractive, and it is the little acts of
courtesy and consideration on the
part OF husband for a wife which
deepen her love for him, heighten
her respect for other men, and make
her daily and hourly grateful to that
God through whose infinite wisdom
her life and that of her husband
were brought together. Marriage
is never a failure in home where
consideration Ellis the minds and
lives of husband and wife. 1t is a
golden bond between them which
brightens with increasing years, and
binds them together when they care
absent one from the other"

AN AK TO GRIND.

1t won't hurt any man to read the
following article from the Austin
Statesman. 1t is sensible, and as
true as the truest kind Of preaching:
"In every community there are
men who cannot be prevailed upon
to take their share of the public
burdens and responsibilities upon
| themselves. They can nearly always
be convinced that certain work
ought to be done, and that "we"
ought to do it, but they are content
ed to look on and let others do the
work. If everybody belonged to
this class nothing would be done.
There would be no cities, or towns
or villages even. There would be
no railroads, or school houses, or
churches. But fortunately, in most
communities there are few men
who are willing to work, and push,
and struggle, who give time, and
money, and labor, and set on foot
public enterprises, and turn half
dead country villages into thriving
and prosperous towns and cities.
These men are always at the head
of every scheme that is for the coun-
try's good; and while they work
there is always good number of
those who do not work, who stand
around and shrug expressive shonld-
ers, and make an unpleasant re-
mark. ooh, of course Smith is at
the head of it :" they cry sneeringly,
He won't DO anything unless he
can lead He's always boss of
everything that comes along" And
so Smith is vilifed Cor doing a work
that somebody must do, and that
nobody else will do.
Another favorite explanation
which is always ready for an enter
prising citizen is, che has an ak to
grind" Let his laborers be as dis
interested as they may, this insinu-
alton is always ready for him. He
may be working 70 secure a rail-
road or factory which will benefit
every man in the community quite
as much as himself, but he will be
suspected of making a grind stone of
the enterprise Of making the people
turn the stone while he grinds his
own individual AK. This is not only
unjust, but it is the veriest bosh.
Somebody must work, and it is a
God send to any community when
it has men who will work. 1t would
be far more sensible in the people
to encourage the men who will work,
whether they work in the lead or
not. If the gaining of public enter
prises is the cause of getting some
mans AK ground, why turn the grind
stone. Pcy less attention to the
motives of the workers, and be
thankful you are getting the work
done.
