Could Not Be Abrupt.

The Rev. j. Hyatt Smith relates the fol-
lowing story:
"When was living with my brother in
Buffalo, Mark Twain occupied a cottage
across the street. We didn't see very much
of him; but one morning, as we were enjoy
ing our cigars on the yeranda after breakfast,
we saw Marx come to his door in his dress
ing-gown and slippers, and look over at Us.
He stood at his door and smoked for min
ute, as if making up his mind about some
thing, and at last opened his gate and came
lounging across the street. There was an
unoccupied rocking-cha on the veranda,
and, when my brother offered it TO him, he
dropped into it with a sigh of relief He
smoked for few moments, and said:
Nice morning.
Yes, very pleasant
"'Shouldn't wonder in we had rain by
and-by.'
"'Well, we could stand little
This is nice house you have here.'
AYES, we rather like it,
SHOWS your family?'
"Quite well-and yours?'
"'Oh, we're all comfortable
"There was another impressive silence,
and finally Mark Twain crossed his legs,
blew puff Of smoke into the air, and in
his lazy drawl remarked:
al supposed you are bit surprised to see
me here so early. Fact is, 1 haven't been so
neigh borly, perhaps as / ought to be. We
must mend that state of things. But this
morning / came over because 1 thought you
might be interested in knowing that your
roof is on fire. 1t struck me that it would
be good idea if
But at the mention Of fire the whole
family busted upstairs, trailing language all
the way up. When we had put the fire out
and returned to the veranda, Mark wasn't

Anything to Obiige the Tigress.


Savage beasts, even in their native wilds,
sometimes recognize an act of kindness, and
show their gratitude by the most unms-
taxable signs" remarked Thomas Maynard,
an old sea Captain.
"a number OF years ago the ship which
then commanded was becalmed off the coast
of India, and, taking boat load of men,
went ashore in search Of fresh water. In
some way L became separated from the crew,
and, in wandering around, was a good deal
startled ut coming directly upon a full
grown tigress. Much to my surprise the
beast did not make any hostile demonstra-
ton toward me, but crouching on the ground,
looked steadfastly, first at my face and then
at a tree a short distance away. For time
/ could not understand this conduct, and,
not daring to run for fear she would at once
overtake me, stood rooted to the spot.
Presently the tigress arose and walked to
the tree, looking backward as she went. On
turning my gaze aloit, / saw among the
branches Of the tree what had caused the
evident solicitation of the tigress. There,
Ierched in one Of the limbs, sat big baboon
with two little tiger cubs in its arms. Hav-
ing an Ak with me, started to cut the tree
down, the tigress watching me intently all
the while. When the tree fell, and the three
animals with it, the tigress bounced upon
the baboon and with great fury dispatched

MEXICAN WAR PENSIONS,

A bill to increase tho pensions of the surviv-
ors and widows of the Mexican and Indian
wars from SS to Sig month has been agreed
upon by the House Committee on Pensions
Commissioner Lochren estimates that the adj
ditional appropriation necessary to meet this
increase will not exceed $l,3l0,000 per annum.
The Comm issioner has sent communication
bearing upon this subject to Mr. Moses, the
Chairman of the House Committee. He shows
that Is 625 survivors of the Mexican war are
borne on the rolls in addition to 7.61l widows,
making in all 21.236.
The Indian war pensioners are evenly di-
vided between the survivors and the widows,
the total number being 6170. Inasmuch as
3.421 Of the Mexican war pensioners have had
their pensions increased to $12 month, there
remain 10, 204 survivors who are still receiving
the minimum rate of S.. The additional
amount required per annum will be $iS in
each case, or a total for the pensioners now
upon the rolls of 1856. 100. AS it has been es-
timated that of the claims for Mexican war
pensioners now pending in the Bureau 1879
will be allowed, the additional amount to this
class will aggregate $94.' o. This makes a
grand total additional cost for Mexican war
pensioners. by reason of the proposed legisla-
tion of $3.50, l12. To this sum must be added
$3.50. 900 in round numbers for the Indian war
pensioners.

There is only one way to cook oatmeal, and
that is in double boiler, after the following
recipe, which is Mrs. Rorer's method: Put four
heaping tabespoonfuls Of oatmeal in a quart of
gboiliu water, add teaspoonful of salt, put
these i'll the double boiler and boil rapidly for 20
minutes. then push the double boiler aside ana
let it cook slowly for two hours, or, better still,
over night. 1t must not be stirred after it has
begun to cook. Stirring breaks the grains and
makes the stuff pasty. Cooked correctly the
grains ought to swell up, each one be separate
from its neig hbor, and have delightful flavor.
If double boiler is used, and the lower part
kept filled with water, there is not any danger
of the oatmeal burning and stirring is unneces-
sary."
