But the latter-day glory of achieve
ment has o'ershadowed them; for now
we have not only quantity but also
quality. Edison has no rival He has
seized the most mysterious of forces,
electricity, and subdued it to me-
chanical agency. 1t Eliminates our
streets with radiant light, and fills our
hearts with the music of voices hun
dreds Of miles away. When the steam
engine is the curious relief of a COM
paratively ignorant age, and electricity
has given full scope for all its possibili-
ties, no name will be written larger
than Edison's upon the scroll of those
whose minds have conquered the uni
verse, and conquered only to bless.
Never excelled, and rarely equaled,
the answer to our question can safely
be left in his fair fame and the record
of patents for 1S9a.-N. Y. Ledger.

DOMESTIC CONCERNS.

Nut Cake: Two cups of sugar, ono
cup of butter, one cup of milk, three
eggs, three cups Of -four, two teaspoon
fuls baking powder, two cups of any
kind Of nut kerncls.-Detroit Free
Press.
Bread should be kneaded very little
at the second molding. And when set
to rise, do not let it rise to its fullest
capacity before putting it in the oven.
It is best to grease over the tops of the
loaves with butter when setting it to
rise the last time. This keeps the
crust tender when baking.
Orange Jelly: The juice of four
oranges, grated rind of one, juice and
rind of one lemon, one and one-half
cupfuls of sugar. Put one-haf a box
of gelatine in cold water, let it stand
.wo hours; add pint of boiling water
and the other ingredients; pour into
molds and put on ice to cool--Good
Housekeeping.
TO remove cart-wheel grease from
white goods use soap and oil of tur-
pentine. alternating with streams Of
water; from colored cottons and wool.
ems, rub in with lard, let lie, soap, let
lie again, and treat alternately with oil
of turpentine and water; from silks,
use benzine instead of oil of turpentine.

Orange Cream: Three-fourths of
pound of coffee A sugar, eight eggs,
the grated rind OF two oranges, the
juice of eight oranges and one ounce of
cornstarch. Stir constantly in double
kettle until it begins to thicken, re-
move from the sstove and beat few
minutes. Pour into custard cups or
sherbet glasses, place on the ice and
serve with fancy cakes.-N. Y. World.
Asparagus on Toast: Throw the

rather quickly. If overdone the sheads
will be broken. Toast slices of bread
very brown on both sides, and when

and lay the asparagus upon it. Pour
melted butter on it and serve.-Old
Homestead.
Cheese Straws: Mix thoroughly two
ounces of -four, two ounces of butter
and two ounces Of grated cheese, add
one egg, half teaspoonful sof salt and

FLIGHT OF THE wRENs.
How Bevy OF Young Birds Lost the
Home Nest.

How . Bevy OF Young Birds Lost the
Home Nest.
We were exceedingly DESTROYS of see
ing that family of wrens start out in
life, and we did, in way that startled
MS as much as it must have surprised
them. II wonder if they're gone" was
our anxious thought every morning as
we approached; and one day, not seeing
either parent, we feared they had made
their debut without our assistance, in
the magical morning hours when so
many things take place in the bird
world.
81 mean to see If they arestill there, |"
said my comrade, creeping up to the
mass of roots, leaning far under, and
carefully thrusting one finger into the
nest.
A dynamite bomb could not have
been more effective, nor more shocking
to us, for 10! in sudden panic five baby
wrens took fight in Eve different direc-
tio1is. The cause of the disturbance
rose with look of discontinue on her
face. as If she had been caught robbing
a nest She seemed SO dismayed that
/ laughed, while those wrenlings made
the air fairly hum about her head.
That they were ready to fly. and only
waiting for ''the discourager Of hesi-
fancy" to start them, was plain, for
every one used his little wings man
fully-perhaps should say wrenfully
land few from fifteen TO twenty feet
before he came down. In less than .
minute the air was filed with wren
baby chirps, and we seated ourselves to
await the mothers return and witness
the next act in the wren drama. The
mother took it philosophically, recog-
nizing the chirps, and locating them
with an ease and precision that aroused
envy in us bird-lovers, to whom young
bird calls seem to come from every d.
rection at once. She Immediately be-
gan to feed, and to collect them into a
little flock. With her help we also
found them, and watched them long
time-their pretty baby ways. their
eager interest in the big world, their
drawing together as they heard one
another's voices, and their cozy crd-
ding up together On . log.-Aslantic

ARE AMERICANS ClEvER7

They Are II Inventive Genius Is an Indi-
cation.
There is no surer test of original
minds and their assiduous culture than
this one-inventive genius 1t bespeaks
the best use of all divine gifts, and is
the fruit of an advanced civilization.
Well, America has never had any
cause to be ashamed of her contribu-
ton to the progress of the world, and
the year 81 would have effectually
abolished it if she had. During that
time patents have been obtained in the
United States at the rate of nearly two
thousand a month, making a total of
twenty-three thousand two hundred
and forty-four for the year.
This phenomenal number represents
an amount of technical skill, patient
INVESTIGATION and constant labor of
which the figures themselves give only
the faintest idea They are indeed a
triumph, but it has been purchased by
weary struggls of both hand and brain.
Granted that some among these pat
ents are useless, others unimportant
and third class impracticable, it still
remains that they contain germs, of de-
velopment and possibilities of advance
which will out-rival the grandest
dreams of the most enthusiastic Of
optimists.
The high place of this country in the
distant past is exceeded by last years
unparalleled record. Franklin's electric
kite and Fulton's steamboat trip to Al
bany effectually solved the problem of
internal communication across our vast
possessions Necessity is a stern but
prolific mother, and she early laugh
our forefathers the lesson that ''they
must conquer nature by obeying ma
lures powers" For where one man
did the work of three and help was in
accessible. he made his brains do duty
Tor the absent two and wrested somc
u natare'e secrets from her.

In one respect At least Quito, the cap
ital of Eucador, is the most unique city
in the world-it Is situated in both the
northern and southern hemispheres, a
distinction clsimed by no other place Of
Importance on the globs. At Quito the
sun rises and sets at six o'clock the year
around. You may forget to wind your
watch while you are visiting the Euca-
dorian capital, but you need not hunt
up regulator-set it when the sun
rises or sets and you will be sure to be
right. Old Sol makes no mistakes. In
one part Of the city the summer season
docs battle with old winter, who Is just
across the street. The seasons, Is far
as names are concerned, change almost
instantly; but, As the temperature 10
remarkably even, these curious points
are seldom thought of or commented
on by the fifty thousand people who
make Quito their honest Louis Re
public.

ExTRAvAoANT IDEAS.
rho PernicIous Influence They Exert Upon
Girls.

The PernicIous Influence They Exert Upon
Girls.
II Think said the venerable grand
mother of many girls, shat it is a
wrong use of money to buy velvets and
brocades and diamonds for young girls.
They are neither becoming nor appro-
pirate, to say nothing of the folly OF
allowing such extravaganza. Girls
who grow up to luxuries of this sort
usually make fretful, disseminated
women, uncomfortable capricious wives,
and injudicious, unreliable mothers.
Early accustomed to the best of every
thing, they soon weary of that, and
pine with Unsuitable longings for some
thing finer and more costly and rare.
They feast on books of widest romance,
which tell of jewels of fabulous value,
palaces more splendid than the skill of
man ever built, silks and laces, draper
les and decorations that only the fever
heated imagination of disconnected
spirit could create Kingdoms rise and
fall, beauty triumphs, women are
adored and live and die, more after the
fashion of angels than human beings
''And when she closes the book her
house appears poor and mean in the
memory of that of which she has Just
read; her jewels are trash as compared
with those worn by the princess; her
husband is, oh, so commonplace! when
contrasted with the almost divine be-
ings of the story; and her children ara
cross, quarrelsome and untidy, alto
gether different from the cherubs she
has read about What wonder that she
is peevish and fretful and unreasona
BILE, possibly cruel, or that some day
she breaks all bonds of propriety, and
following the example of the heroine
in one of the wild romances with which
her head and heart are full, leaves her
home and friends, and fings herself
into the tide that leads to destruction.
"And does her moth er realize that
she is the one at fault-that she sowed
the seeds Of discomfort by giving her
child everything she asked for, and
nournished the spirit of unrest by al
lowing her to think that nothing was
too good for her?
Maternal affection sometimes makes
grave mistakes, but never more hope
less or fatal ones than when girls are
permitted to gather to themselves all
of the treasures of this world while yet
they are the merest children. IN. Y.
Ledger.
