Embroidered Book Covers.

The rage for embroidery has in
0aded the library. The skilled nee
1lewoman now speeds her fairy
fingers in artistic design over oblongs
of kid, satin, velvet, heavy silk and
other fabrics and then she HES off to
the booksellers. A copy of some
body's favorite author is bought and
taken with the embroidered oblong
to the bookbinder. That useful
functionary strips off the covers of
the recent purchase, laboriously
scrapes the glue from the back and
proceeds to substitute the mounted
work. Sometimes the corners are
capped with gold or silver, or the en-
tire boards are bound with narrow
rim of metal Somebody will be cal
lous indeed if this daintily held vol
ume is not the edition de luxe of his
bOOkShelves.
The idea is undoubtedly an en-
largement from the magazine covers
which were and are popular. These
in number of designs are shown in
the exchanges. One of the prettiest
seen recently is fawn channels, upon
which were painted punches of hello
trope. The two covers are backed
with heliotrope ribbon and tied to-
gether at the front with narrow
bows. Handsome leather ones are
shown also, some studded with silver
flowers-de-luce being very pretty.
Others have a monogram in silver,
still others ornamental gilt lettering
of suitable inscriptions: Books are
my best friends, Books are the
windows through which the soul
looks out, " or Il love my books, the

Profits of Miss AIcott,s Stories.

The late Miss Alcott is said to have
received 5000, 900 as her share of the
profits on her books. When she first
went to Mr.. Niles, of Roberts Bros,
and proposed to write a story, she
wanted it to be about boys. Mr..
Niles insisted, however, that it should
be about girls. Finally Miss Alcott
consented to describe the experiences
OF herself and her sisters when they
were young, and the first part of
Little Women" was the result. The
publishers offered her 81 900 for the
manuscript, but advised her to accept
aroyalty, which she did, fortunately,
as the book had great popularity.
Two of the Little Men" of Miss Al
colts story are now in the Boston
publishing house of Roberts Bros.
They are Miss AlcOtt's nephews,
+. Alcott Pratt and his brother, who
took the name of John Alcott.
During the holiday season Mr.. F.
Alcott Pratt makes a daily visit to all
OF the large publishing houses and
takes wholesale orders for Miss AL
colts books. Her books have large
circulation in Boston. Little Men"
and Little Women" seem to be the
greatest favorites, and lately there
has been much demand for 1.-THE Life
and journal of Louisa NJ Alcott

membered by their famous aunt, as

Field went to work to prepare 600 miles
more of cable for another trial He soon
sailed for home and was met at the dock
with the news that his private fortune had
been nearly swamped in the financial panic
of that year. By personal solicitation Of
Mr.. Field both governments again loaned
ships. and in June. 1853, the Niagara and
Agamemnon, with feet of consorts, ren
dezvoused in mdocean to begin paying out
from the center. Although it was mid
summer the Agamemnon was nearly wreck
ed in gale.
Before starting again to lay the writhing
monster it was agreed that in case it parted
when less than 100 miles were out, the ships
would turn about, splice and begin again;
over 100 they would abandon the attemot
and return to England At forty miles it
parted and was spliced. At 200, when all
was running smoothly. she broke and back
10 England the expedition went. The
chairman of the board of directors of the
Atlantic Telegraph company, which was
then operating the scheme, said briefly
Sell the cable, " and remained away from
the meeting. The vice chairman resigned,
but Mr.. Field prevailed on the faithful
ones to make one more attempt, for the
ships were at hand, the cable ready, and
there was chance. Only a chance but sue
cess rode in on that one chance and on Aug
5, 1858, the cable was completed On the
10th messages passed between Queen Vic
toria and President Buchanan, and on Sept
], the very day of the celebration of the
went in the city of New York, came the
startling announcement that the Atlantic
cable was dead. The current positively re-
fused to work.
Then came Il reaction in the public mind
Extravagant laudation gave way to de-
nunciation and derision. Was the cable
gigantic humbug, hoax, or another John
Law "bubblei" More moderate critics
asked if the telegraph plateau was not for
all myth and the submerged cable prob
ably knawed in two by abrasion on the
jagged peaks of submarine mountains2
The motives of Mr.. Field and his coadju-
tors were severely criticised, and enemies
asserted that the alleged dispatches by
cable were forgeries
Yet Mr.. Field bent every energy toward
renewal of the scheme. In 1861 the
United States was involved in an eXpen-
sive war, aud, although feeling the need of
Il cable, had a load of war debt in prospect
that put an end to dreams. An incident
of the war, however, helped to renew in
terest in Il cable on both sides of the ocean,
for when England was about to declare
hostilities with this country on account of
the Trent affair it was freely avowed that
a telegraph across the Atlantic would
have warded off the crisis by transmitting
a word of explanation in mick o. time"
After five years of agitation, or in 1864,
100000 new capital was subscribed, a new
cable and new machinery were ordered and
the mammoth steamship Great Eastern
was bought and placed at the service of
the company to lay the cable. In July,
1865, all was ready for another start, and
paying out began on the Irish coast. After
two breaks in the current, which were cor
rected by picking up many miles of wire
and splicing in new sections, the Great

Eastern completed two-thirds of her jour
ney, and suddenly the cable broke and
slipped off into the sea-.
Mr. Field stood watching the straining
cable the moment of the calamity and
when it was over walked into the saloon
where the gentlemen of the expedition
were at lunch, and for the first time in the
history of the struggles his lips quivered
and his cheeks were blanched. Instantly
the great ship put about and shortly stood
south of the line paid out. GrapnelG were
thrown, and after raldng the ocean bed
two miles deep a whole afternoon and
night, the irons caught in some object I'M
mistakably lying prone on the bottom. 1t
was hoisted 700 fathoms, or one-third the
depth, when the machinery gave way and
again all was over Nine days and nights

For the Higher Education of womei

For the Higher Education OF Women.
The most important of all move.
ments for the higher education of
woman has been matured during the
past three years, and recently it took
definite shape by filing a charter Of
incorporation authorizing the associa-
ton to carry its purposes into effect.
This association has all the rights of
a university, is nonsectarian and non
partisan, and its object is to secure
true university privileges for women
in medicine, law, theology and the
fine arts. The first aim of the soci-
ETY. is to obtain admission for women
to such university as Yale, Harvard
or Cornell, not so much on account
of its superior advantages over wom-
ems colleges in instruction as in the
demonstrable apparatus.
Some of the best universities have
signitied their willingness to admit
women if they possessed endow.
ments authorizing them TO fit up the
facilities necessary to furnishing
women equal advantages with men.
This association proposes to raise
such fund by establishing fellow
ships and maintaining a loan fund
for deserving students.
The association is national, and its
membership represents already TWEEN
ty-one states and includes professors
and graduates of sixteen of the leading
institutions of learning in this coun-
try two in Europe and also six cler-
gymen of different denominations.

Cabbages, Swede turnips or common
white turnips, long or round, sugar
beets, etc, may commonly be purchased
of farmers-supposing, good reader, that
you do not raise your own.
These articles may be stored in a mod.
erately cool but dry cellar to advan-
tage, simply being kept from freezing,
and they will be found very handy in
winter. Poultry confined in close runs
and houses four or five months during our
cold northern winters require good artifi
cial feeding in variety to make them lay
at all during the frigid term, or to incite
them to commence their work early in
the spring The provision of green food
and cooked vegetables, mixed with their
meal and grain at this period. is q grand
need that must not be lost sight of
where the poulterer would do his stock
justice, and at the same time make the
most out of their product, seasonably.-
