The young man made up his mind
that he was not going to have any
more nonsense from that girl. 1t
was late. He had staid the other
man out, and now she looked right
at him and said:
"You have staid long enough.
You can just go home"
He was between her and the door,
anyhow, and he looked very black as
he said he wouldn't.
'Then 1 will leave you" she re-
torted. Good night"
He caught her wrist and exclaimed:
mo; you stay here"
1t was a slender wrist, but she
shook it vigorously, saying:
aren't you ashamed of yourself,
you big, ugly fellow2 Let go"

He looked very black and ugly.

"You will have to-"
'I hate you"
"You can stay till you get over it. "

They were quiet some time, she
swapping her angry eyes at him, he
stolid and sullen. Presently she
whispered, "You hurt me-"
"You have hurt me, " he returned.
Let go"
"No."
Then she got angry again and
presently pouted: 100, you can let
go; you think will run, but won't.
1 don't want to stay, and you make
me against my will, but you needn't
hold me, you big, ugly thing"
He thought for a moment, then let
go, watching her narrowly. She sat
quite still, scowling furiously with
her pretty brow tied in knots and
her mouth one angry pout. Present

it up much longer. She was SO

the lesson of course. 1t was time
she learned to be respectful to the
man whose engagement ring she
wore, and he meant to teach her
right there. He got up and put
his hands on her shoulders, held her
stubborn little face in place, and
kissed her. She squirmed fiercely,
and in an enraged whisper protested:
''It's all very well to be kissed, but
not because one has to. How / wish
l were big enough to pound you
How dare you make me do anything

He went right on kissing her, but
her little face was tied up into such
a tangle of rage and her pink hst'
were doubled up so fiercely that hC
bethought him that he might bt

and, without a word, turned to the

A fowl seems such a little, alto
gether insignificant thing, that it is
difficult to realize the possibility of a
great industry taken up solely with
it; and most people are greatly sur
prised, when they hear the extent of
the traffic in Sussex. Some idea of
its magnitude may be obtaided from
the following figures: During 1890
about /, 600 tons of chickens left this
neighborhood for London alone. A
thousand tons is a figure that con
veys but little impression to our
minds. But let us remember that
each fowl only weighs about four
pounds, and then we will see that to
make up the thousand tons there
must have been considerably over
half q million of chickens, the exact
figures being $50, OOO.-Sussex Eng9

our NotionaI statue of Liberty.

The bronze statue of Liberty which
has crowned the dome of the Capitol
building at Washington for the past
twenty-nine years is 10 feet 6 inches
high and weighs IA, 985 pounds. The
figure was cast in five sections, the
heaviest being of 4, 740 pounds weight.
The statue was all completed, except
the headpiece, prior to Dec. 2, 1868,
the finishing being reserved for that
day. Crawford, who designed the
figure, submitted his model adorned
with liberty cap" but jefferson
Davis, then secretary of war, object
ed to such a head covering, saying
that the old Phrygian emblem was a
relic of degraded people. The sec
retary's objections were sustained
and the well known Indian head
dress was substituted for the cap.
Crawford got $4,000 for the plaster
model of Liberty; Clark Mills got
80, 500 for casting her in bronze
money expended for labor and metal
ran the total cost up to $23, 796.82.-

there is any danger of the accumulation of

After the walls and mortar are thorough

grade the drainpipe so as to take away
the water, a tight cellar can be secured by
covering the outside of the walls and the
cellar bottom with asphaltum But this
is very expensive method and is rarely
done except in important buildings. 1t is
always well in such cases to keep the
foundations rs high as possible. Some
times Il deep cesspooi can be made in close

I want to show you this morning one

you have ever had. whose back was
scourged, who was wounded In the
hands and wounded in the feet and suf-
fcred all over; and ! want that example
to make you more enduring In your suf.

BUFFALO, n. V, Aug. 10.-The Sixty

The Thirty-fourth regiment has been
called out To protect the Central and
West Shore property, it being feared
that the sMitchmen on these roads may

The police commissioners were busy
swearing in special deputies for duty in
the yards at Checktowaga, which /
outside the city limits and beyond the
jurisdiction of the city police. The
sheriff will not call upon the military
except as IA last resort.
Master Moriarity, of the local lodge
OF the Switchmen's union, states that
The strikers were not responsible for
the fires. lie attributes them to n lot
of ''tr3mps and buns that are always
around where there Is any excitement"
Everything has been quiet in the
yards since daylight and up to noon.
The incendiaries, whoever they are, will
keep under cover during the day. II
was reported that the strike would be
likely TO spread to the Erie yards at
Hornellsville.
In an interview Grand Maste
Sweeney emphatically condemns the
acts of lawlessness and states that he
has assurances from the men on strike
that they were not responsible 70
what was done, but that it was TIA
work of irresponsible individuals who
could not be controlled.
The Nickel Plate succeeded in moving
thirty-two cars of live stock from the
Lehigh TO the Lake Shore tracks, but
when the men learned of 1t they refused
TO take the cars up in the West Shore
trains bound e the Central for New
York. Then IL was learned that ia
ears of live stock belonging TO the Erie
and Lehigh were standing on"the West
Shore tracks. The men thereupon re.
fused to handle them. Each man was
asked separately 10 go TO work on these
and each upon refusing was discharged
and sent to get his pay. In consequence
the Lake Shore sw!tchmen stand In
hourly expectation all day of being or
dered out by the union.

standby.
The picnic sandwich, the sandwich Of
travel, should be substantial and the
bread cut ut least Il quarter of an inch
thick. For game sandwiches brown
bread may be used. The slices of game,
after having been dipped in aspic jelly,
should have n little lemon juice
s%prinkled over them.
Chicken sandwiches are made By
spreading slices OF bread with bechamel
sauce instead of butter. Bechamel
is made Of melted butter and
milk,t which is added white stock, and
favored with green onions by boiling
them with the sauce and then stirring.
Thus spread. thin pieces of the white
meat s%prinkled with salt and pepper
are laid between. If butter is used tho
sandwich is improved by mixing a lit
tic ham with the chicken as a relish.
Salmon sandwiches are made by
spreading the bread with mayonnaisc,
to which aspic jelly has beer added un.
til 1t is of the consistency of butter.
The salmon should be stripped
In flakes and all the grease
removed. Sprinkle lightly with
salt and pepper. The sandwich is i'm
proved by adding u thin layer Of sliced
cucumber before covering with the top
slice. Shrimp sandwiches, using the
bottled shrimps, may be made in tho
same way.
Pate de foic sandwiches need only the
reminder that there should be an APP
probable amount of bread, otherwise
they will be too rich. Sandwiches from
potted meats should he sprinkled with
lemon juice. Mayonnaisc. instead OF
butter, relieves their monotony.
But there Is n large field for sand.
wiches outside of meats that, in fact,
become wearisome. Hard boiled egg
sandwiches occur 70 every one. These
are greatly improved by the addition OF
n little water-cress, lettuce or chicory.
Salad sandwiches are especially recon-
mended in travelling, when the palate
Is apt To grow fastidious. Mayonnaise,
with aspic jelly in which u little tarra-
gon has been chopped, is used instead
OF butter, and the beet, tomato, celery
or lettuce cut into pieces that will rem
der them manageable. Asparagus tops
n stcwcd celery, mixed with bechamel
sauce, make delightful sandwiches and
