TO COOK A HUSBAND.

In all climates, except that of Chi
cago, this dish, when properly cooked,
will last long time.
Do not roast ; nor is it good when in
a stew, but cook with gentleness.
Have an even fire of love, unselfshness
and much patience. Be sure there is
no suspicion or jealousy in the fuel,
as this invariably causes the fire to flare
up and scorch your dish.
Do not pinlon in any way, nor
skewer, as it is so tender if properly
cooked, as to render it unnecessary as
we'll as dangerous both to the dish and
the cook.
Keep it gently stirred all the time.
Do not put in all the sugar to begin
with, but use it plentifuly, yet with dis
cretlon, until it is done.
Do not try with fork to see If it is
done. You can tell whether or not it is
tender in better ways than this.
Serve according to the Golden Rule
and without capers.-LiLiau Bell.

returned among them, dripping and
-empty-handed. He had reached
the ship, he said, with another;
found the box, and trusted himself
! alone with it to the sea. But in the
surf he had to abandon it to save
himself. 1t had perhaps dritted
ashore, and might be found for
himself, he abandoned his claim to
the reward. Had he looked abashed
or mortified, Jenny felt that she
might have relented, but the brag.
gart was as all-satisfed, as confident
and boastful as ever. Nevertheless,
as his eye seemed to seek her, she
was constrained, in mere politeness,
to add her own to her fathers con-
do!ences, | suppose, she hesitated,
in passing him, that this is mere
nothing to you after all you did last
night that was really great and un-
selfish.
Were you never disappointed,
Miss he said, with exasperating alb
ruptness.
A quick consciousness of her own
thankless labor on the galeon, and
terrible idea that he might have some
suspicion of, and perhaps the least
suggestion that she might have been
disappointed in him, brought faint
color to her cheek. But she replied
with dignitv:-
| really couldn't say. But GER
tainly, she added with a new found
pertness. you don't look it.
Nor do you, Miss, was his idiotic
answer.
A few hours later, alarmed at what
she had heard of the inroads of the
sea, which had risen higher than
ever known to the oldest settler, and
perhaps mindful of yesterdays foot
prints, she songht her old secluded
haunt. Tne wreck was still there,
but the sea had reached it. The ex-
cavating between its gaunt ribs was
filled with drift and the sea weed
carried there by the surges and en-
trapped in its meshes. And there,
too, caught as in a net, lay the
WOO en- box of securities Sol Catlin
had abando ed to the sea.
This is the story as it was tod to
me. The singu'arity of coincidence
has CHALLENGED some speculation.
Jenny insisted at the time upon shar-
ing the full reward with Catlin, but
local critics have pointed out that
from subsequent'events this proved
nothing. For she had married him

RAISING A FAMILY.

A man writes whimsical yet quite
serious letter to the Indianapolis Meas
narrating the experience of himself and
wife in family rearing. The account
particularly records the expense of
brlngng up children.
Twenty six years ago the couple
were married. The husband owned a
house and got SIS week wages. At
that time he began his expense diary,
and has just closed 1t on the occasion
OF the graduation from the high school
of his fourth and last child. All the
four were well educated by the parents,
but at the close of their school years
very properly went out and earned
their own living, thus taking off of the
father the burden of their support.
What it has cost to rear them is faith
fully set forth by the fathers journal.
The publication of it seems enough to
scare young men and women from
matrimonY.
His wages were raised as time went
on. He estimates that his total earn
ings in the twenty.six years have been
$40, 900. His real estate and belong
ipgs are now worth a thousand dollars
more than when he began life. By
that thousand dollars he is better off
financially than when he started. The
rest of the money went to support the
family and bring up the children. The
family man puts it thus: "Given a
plant of about $4,000 and two en-
ployees, man and wife, it has taken,
therefore, about $4,000 to each man
produced. This, of course, includes
all employees expenses. The plant is
slightly enhanced in value, but the
employees have seen their best days.
The quality of the goods remains yet
to be demonstrated"
He asked his wife, good soul and
good mother, who loved her children.
to tell honestly if she would agan be
willing to go through the same expert
ence in rearing family, and she an
swered: Not for all that money
could buy would / go through again
what would be necessary 10 rear a
family" The writer confesses that
the two employees are proud of their
work, but they emphatically don't WANT
another JOB. As to items the family
man says:
Some of the items Of expense have
been these: Doctors bills (twenty-
seven years., S2,Ioo (and all paid,
probably the only instance on record) ;
groceries, average per week first five
years, 81 next three, So; remainder
of the twenty-six years, SI3 a week.
For ten years it has taken on an
average one pair of shoes per week
for the family, including myself and
wife. The most annoying things |
have ever known is the rapidity with
which children wear cut shoes. Only
one thing approaches 1.-THE high
price of children's shoes. l never
could understand how, with all the
clviiz alton OF the age, and the demand
for cheaper results, children's shoes
have not been reduced in price. The
human shoe is failure. No man not
rich can afford to buy shoes for fam
lily, and If | had 1t to do l would go to
TImbuctoo, where neither horses,
mules, camels nor men are shod.

TIE WAGES OF WOMEN.
Smaller Pay Is Due to the Temporary
Character of Their Employment.

Smaller Pay Is Due to the Temporary
Character of Their Employment.
The economic section of the British Asso-
citation at its recent meeting took under con-
sideration the relative wages OF men and
women, and discussed the matter thoroughly
in the hope that some conclusion could be
reached, some basis of fixing the pay that
women ought to get where they do the same
kind OF work as men. As might have been
expected, nodefnite conclusion was reached,
although the matter was very thoroughly
discussed, and a great deal OF interesting
information obtained.
In the first place, it was shown that the
popular belief that women do not get the
same pay az men for the same quality Of
work is mistake. They are paid quite as
we'll in many branches. In art and litera-
tur5 they receive the same compensation,
and among the greater singers the women
have probably received more. In the trades
or professions they get the same pay when
they organize and insist upon 1t. For years
the Lancashire cotton mills paid female
labor less than the males until the women
organized and struck. Since then the mill
owners have not considered the sex OF tnelr
employees. but the work done. A similar
strike was that of the women teachers In
Wyoming, and it was similarly successful
Indeed within the last few Yeas, the sala-
ries paid female teachers have approXlmatel
closer aud closer to those paid by men, ultll
now in majority of the States no differ
| ence between them is recognized.
When. however it comes to factory work
the women get less, generally because they
do less. Their work IS usually different
from that done by the men, simHl.r, lighter
aud easier. Again, IN regard to type-wrlters,
clerks, telegraph operators and the like. the
smaller pay is due 10 inferior work. Thls IS
especially the case with type-wrter5 and
clerks, due to the fact that when the women
90 into these branches they do so tempo
rarily, expecting to leave them soon for
something else, whereas the men adopt them
generally as a permanency.
1t is this temperatures which makes much
of women's work, es 4ecially when they en-
ter into competition with men, inferior, and
is the cause of their receiving lower pay.
Whenever they go into any trade which they
intend to keep up permanently they get the
same pay, and they do SO, moreover. when
they are thoroughly organized and insist upon
their rights. But when it is a mere make
shift-sOmething to be followed year or so
unit! they are married-the work Is inferior
and the pay small. Thee are the conclu-
sons reached by the British Association,
after having discussed the matter for several
days.-New Orleans Times Democrat.

ROlympa Brown, or, as she has since be-
come, Rev. Olympia Brown-Willls, was not
the first woman to be ordained in this country,
writes q contributor to the Inter Ocean Of
Chicago, that distinction being possessed by
the Rev. Antoinette Brown-Blackwen, VINO

lege somewhere about 1S47. She says her
first sermon was preached in a school-house
in Henrietta OHIO, on Sunday afternoon,
and size found the people, 'if little more

attentive and orderly as any sober-minded
CONGREGATION" At the time Mrs. Blackwell
was ordained, some thirty-eight years ago,
she was pastor of the church at South
Butler ana Savannah in Ohio, which ac-
cordingy departed from precedent In a
manner somewhat revolutionary. Olympia
Brown has probably the longest record of
service Of any woman minister, as, although
not ordained until 1868, she has been in tie
pulpit ever since, while Mrs. Blackwell has
retired from pastoral duty.
The Rev. Phoebe A. Hanaford is prob
ably as widely known as any woman minis
ter. Being asked for "reminiscences of
twenty years in the pulpit, she writes: " 1t
was in the fall of 1866, while | was editing

Something About Women Who Have Be-
come Stenographers.
During all my reading of the papers
have seen but one defense, outside the STEM
ographic magazines and periodicals. for the
bright ambitious young woman who earns
her living at the point of pencil" writes
contributor to The Housekeeper. 1.-THE
question has arisen as to what can be said
in behalf of this so-called brainless and de-
PRAYED class of girls. A column could
easily be written on this side of the questo
had | the space, but as have not Will
confine myself to a few Of the leading facts
In the first place, girl to be successful
stenOgrapher, must be equally as well edu-
Gated as a schOol-teacher. She must have
pluck, energy, perseverance and gOodly
amount of intelligence. The theory re-
quires from six to eight weeks to master 1t.
Then four months must be devoted TO in
cessdnt dictation and acquiring a knowledge
of business forms. after which, # she has
made the most of her time, she IS
ready to take sposltion and make
her first acquaintance with the DuSl-
ness world and that dreadful EN-
ployer' of newspaper nOtorety. Nine cases
out OF Ten she will be received with the
courtesy and consideration which any true
man will extend to woman plucky
enough to enter the business arena. And
now a word for this employer. Although
l do not think their tailors experience any
very serious difficulty in fitting their coats
over their wings, as they are no angels,
good, noble men may be found here as
elsewhere, and men with but small por-
ton of these manly qualities will recognize
a pure, dignitied girl who is making a
brave effort at Self-maintenance, and as
such she will not fail to receive un-
qualified respect. Association in the busi-
ness world with a woman of this char
acter will have an ennoblng influence upon
her feIlow-wOrkers. She will readily dis
criminate between friendly courtesy and
a vulgar familiarity, and she will meet the
latter with that reserve aud dignity OF man
ner which will leave no desire for repetition
by even the most depraved of her associates.
Her treatment of matters of this kind and
her conduct in general should call forth re-
spect ant, make a man forget that he has
ever wondered If there are any good, true
women in the world, but on the contrary,
he will wonder why the world Is so cynical
in this respect.
Stenographers as class are bright, Intel
ligent, quick wtted and self-reliant girls,
and can be ranked above other working girls
in these qualities. The reason for this is
that the successful stenograDher, and it is
only to them my remarks have reference,
requires all the above-named qualifications
in her work; hence they are her stock in
trade,
