The first pioneers were so successful in

dance OF the game and the fertility of the
soil, says writer in Harper's Magazine,
describing the early settling of Kentucky.

is probably now no man living who has

The venerable and reverand Thomas =.

somed for pony and keg Of whisky
The Indians ranged themselves IN
two lines. between which the pris
oner was compelled TO run for his
life, eluding as best he could the
blows of tomahawks and war clubs that
were aimed at him In his fight. Some
times good fortune or activity saved the
prisoner Sometimes the Indians would
in mere caprice use long sticks instead of
deadly weapons. and in few rare instan

Kenton on one occasion won the applause
of the head chiefs Of the Wyandots, who
interfered TO save his life from their in

A SONG OF BEDFORD sOuARE.

It's along time ago and a poor time to boast of.
The foolish old time of two young peoples
But sweet were the days that young love made tho
So short by the clock and SO long by the heart
We lived in a cottage in old Greenwich village
Wlth a tiny clay plot that was burnt brown and
hard; "A~
But it softened at last to my girls patient till
And the the roses sprans up in our little back
The roses sprang up and the yellow day lilies.
Ana heartsease and pansies. sweet williams and
stocks,
And bachelors buttons and bright daffodilies
iox. ""i
They were plain country posies. bright hued and
sweet smelling,
And the two of us worked for them, worked
long and hard;
And the flowers she loved in her old country
dwelling,
They made her at h ONE in our little back yard
In the morning l dug while the breakfast was
And went to the shop where I toiled all the day;
And at night l returned and l found my love
With her bright country eyes down the dull
And first she would tell me what flowers were
And her soft hand slipped into a hand that was
And she ed through the house, till a breeze came
Our little back hall from our little back yard.
1t was long. long ago. and we haven't grown
wealthy;
And we don't live in state up in Madison
square;
But the old man is hale. and hos happy and
healthy.
And his wife is none the worse for the white in
her hair.
Each year lends n sweeter new scent to tho roses:
Each year makes hard life seem a little less
hard;
And each year a new love for old love discloses-
Come, wife, let us walk in our little back yard.

thousand shell fish. The langoose, or large
lobster of France and the Mediterranean
are q surprise to the American traveller.
Not SO delicate as our American lobster,
they still afford an admirable food for a
salad. They are SO large that the flesh (if q
fish has aesh) can be sliced up and served
like cold roast turkey.
The salmon, king Of fish, inspires in his
capture in Scotland rivers, in Labrador and
in Canada, some of the best writing of the
day. William Black, in Scotland, and DR..
Wier Mitchell. of Philadelphia, can tell a
story OF salmon fishing. whieh is as brill
liant as Victor Hugo's description of Wat
erloo, or OF that mysterious jelly fish, in
the novel, 1.-The Travellers of the Sea-"
The New York market boasts the red
snapper, the sheepshead. the salmon, the
~salmontrout, the Spanish maokerel, (most

fish and a gridiron she can make a good
dish for a hungry man.
And we shall begin with the cheapest of
the products of tho water, and although
they may squirm out of our hands, try to
bring to the table the desrised cells.
An old proverb said that matrimony was
a bag in which there wore ninety-nine
snakes and one eel, and the young lady
who put her hand into this agreeable COM
pnny had small chance at the eel, but it
would seem ut first az If in that view of the
subject no one would care particularly for
the eel. In old England cells we're exceed
inRly popular. and the monks dearly loved
to feed upon them. The c~ellarist of Bark

eatables. ITO provide stewed cells in Lem

made for cells. TIL cruel custom OF salt

writer's: when the old serpent appeared
in the guise Of a stewed eel, it was impos-
sible so resist him."

An inexpensive Way of Making an Excel
ent Article.
At almost every modern dinner,
lunch and even breakfast some dainty
CONNECTION is served. A very delicious
chocolate candy can be made Mt home
that shows bewitchingly through the
cut glass of French bonbon dish, and
is far superior in taste to many famous
makes of chocolate and much less ex-
'pensive.
This is the exact recipe: One cup OF
grated chocolate, three cups of granu'
lated sugar, a piece of butter the size Of
a walnut, with cup Of hot water, a
pinch of salt and teaspoonful of
vanilla. These are the ingredients, and
it is an easy task to boil them down to
the consistency of candy. Stir it con-
stantly and allow it to boil Tor ten min
utes only. Try it in a cup of cold wa
ter, and so soon as it is of the consist
ency of thickened molasses pour into
buttered tins. Then with a silver knife
stir it back and forth till you find it is
sugaring When marking it off in little
squares you may put it away to COOL

The sale of wooden shoes-the real
Kind, such as are worn by German peas
ants-is quite lively in some of the
Western States. An Indianapolis paper
says that the chief sale is in winter.
The purchasers are dairymen, garden
ers and farmers. Chic<en-cleaners in
the poultry houses, who stand in feath-
ers and steam, wear them to save shoe
leather Gardeners wives and daugh-
ters wear them in the market. In the
cold weather of three winters ago, in
indianapolis, a number of street-car
drivers caught on to the fact that while
the shoes do not look well, and are
cumbersome, though not as much so as
they look, they are warmer than other
footwear The drivers covered them
with black cloth and tackled old boot
legs to the top and found they had a
protection for the foot that the cold
could not overcome.-Chicago Evening

A Souvenir of Won Moltke.

A delightful little story is told of
Count Won Moltke. During his birth
day anniversary celebration a young
American lady, who was in Berlin for
the time being, addressed him a note
with the request that he would write
his name in the fly-leaf of book which
she sent him. She added that it was
her birthday also, and that it would
give her peculiar pleasure If he would
crafty her desire. Count Won Moltke
was much impressed by the circum-
stance, and sent a messenger .rith the
request that the young lady should call
upon him, which she did under proper
escort. She found the venerable COM
mander surrounded by glittering nobil-
ity, but he at once welcomed her in the
most cordial way, and after a brief con.
versation wrote his name in the book,
adding this passage: 81 have been young
and now I am cid, yet / have never
seen the righteous forsaken or his seed
begging bread. Chicago Evening Post.

proper use of land, the contrary is the
case. Treating land as private property
Were land treated as public property it
would be used and improved as soon as
there was need for its use or improve
