Must Conquer if They Want Shelter.

The German soldier, says the London News, carries his own house on his back that is to say, his share of O shelter tent. The stout pieces of waterproof sheeting are joined together so as to form three sides of @ square, and the men are saved from the worst in wind and rain. The idea of the shelter tent in sections is no new one. The French had 1t many years ago in their tente d'abri. It has many advantages. It re- duces the baggage of the army, and 1t enables the soldier to go into lodgings at once on reaching the scene of the bivouac.
 Troops often suffer miserable discom- fort in waiting for hours for their heavy tents The Germans have no faith in these cumbrous contrivances. They have often sent whole armies into the field without any sort of shelter. Their the ory is that if the men win 8 battle they will find all they want in the towns and villages, and that If they lose 1t they will have no time to pitch tents. The shelter tent seems a compromise be- tween these views

Mans Bitteress Enemy.

'''Sin is always mans bitterest en- emy," writes Dwight L. Moody in "Mr. Moody's Bible Glass" in the La dies Home Journal. "It separates him from his Maker. It separates him from his fellow beings. No position Is too high for sin to debases no place so hal lowed but it seeks to corrupti no home so sacred but 1t seeks to destroy. Sin. like holiness, Is a mighty leveler, says a distinguished divine. And what may be the cause of the thousands of suicides which have occurred during the past year if it is not loathing of selff It is sin, then. which makes @ man loathe himself. 1t is sin which makes mans life become 8 burden from which he so often seeks to free himself by his own hand" -.-

old Stafford News Letter.
 July 12, 1867.
 Sidney Smiths steam saw-milI at StaffOrdville was discovered to be on fire Monday night about 10 o'clock. The fire which broke out beneath the mill had extinguished. It Is supposed to have been caused by friction of the machinery.
 Wm. Smith of this village has probably the best matched team of carriage horses in this vicinity. They have recently been brought together, and attract considerable attention among admirers of good horse fesh. Stafford abounds in good horses now and ought to be creditably represent ed at the fall horse exhibitions,
 Joseph H. Faulkner, late with Howe & FConverse at Staffordville, left for Indian apolis last Tuesday to take charge of the new loom works of that firm at the latter place. For some time past the principal market for these looms has been at the west, and by manufacturing there, much Fexpense for freighting is saved. They will also continue to manufacture at their shops here.

MISS PARLOA ON SOUPS.
The French Housekeeper's Way of Making
 Them Described I'm a Lecture.

The French HOusekeeper's Way of Making
 Them Described Nm Lecture.
 Economy is the watchword of the French people" said Miss Parloa in her talk upon the characteristics of French cookery at the New York Young Wom- ans Christian association, "and the French housekeeper, no matter how simple the dish, excels in the making of it. The market prices are much higher in France than here, butter and sugar costing more than as much again. One may buy half a lemon or part of 8 car rot, and it Is not thought unusual, and only sufficient quantity Is purchased to supply each meal, and an unexpected guest is never provided for"
 Miss Parloa added that roasting and broiling are hardly known among the working classes. and pastry Is made only in the kitchens of the very wealthy. An American housewife may take the lead in the making of dainty and fancy desserts, but to @ French woman the making of soups and sauces is the most important part of the cook cry.
 The following simple soup is said to be savory and delicious: Put 8 table spoonfuls of butter or meat fat in @ soup kettle and pour over it 9 quarts of wa ter. Let 1t cook 10 minutes before add ing a pint of potatoe cut into cubes and 8 leeks washed and sliced thin. Add 8 teaspoonful of salt and one- third of pepper and allow this to cook very slowly one hour. Break slices of stale bread into pieces and put in the soup tureen, and turn the soup over it when cooked the required length of time.
 A French vegetable soup is made thus: Cut large onion into thin slices and put them in a pan with 8 tablespoonfuls of butter. Let them simmer together half an hour and add 3 quarts of water. Have prepared a pint of white turnips cut into cubes. the same amount of po- tatoes, half 8 pint of carrots, half a pint of the white part of the leek cut into thin slices. Add a clove of garlic. an eschalot. 8 teaspoonful of sugar, one- third of teaspoonful of pepper and salt and cook slowly an hour, adding some chopped parsley 1b minutes before the soup Is removed from the fire This soup may also be used for . vegetable puree by pressing 1t through a coarse sieve, and to 8 pint of the thick soup add 6 pint of boiling milk.
 A paste for thickening sauces is kept at hand for constant use. Here is the way to make one that will keep a long time: Cut equal amounts of beef, veal and pork suet in small pieces. Put them i'm kettle with very little water and slowly render. Turn off the first fat. and when very hot stir in -four until 1, forms a thick paste-about a pint ot flour to pint of liquid fat. Put thest into a graniteware vessel and place iI an oven and cook three to four hours Keep in. glass jars covered.

A Temperance Dream.
BY ELLA BKECHKR CUTTINGS.

Il had the oldest dream last night"
 Said little Tommy Dean, "I dreamed that was running
 A temperance moving machine. "And brother Ed came just behind,"
 Said this queer Tommy Dean, Running with six big horses
 A temperance threshing machine. "And this is how they worked, mamma,
 The funniest thing, you'll say. The mower moved down each saloon,
 That came within it's way. And then the thresher threshed them out Oh. what a dreadful crash! When bottles, beer-mugs, whisky jugs
 Together went to a smash ]" And now, dear temperance girls and boys
 Say-every one of you Who read of this peculiar dream
 Oh, don't you wish 'twere true?

When Don Cameron is retired f

When Don Cameron Is retired from the senate of the United States on the 4th of Mnrch, it will be the first time in 8 generation that the senate has been without Cameron among its members. His father, Simon Cameron, entered the senate In 1S45 and was famous Whig leader ten years before the Republican party was born. His son was elected largely through the fathers popularity in Pennsylvania If we leave out the brief period during the Lincoln admin istration. when Simon Cameron was secretary of war and minister to Russia. and three years following. when he was in retirement, the leii,~i of Camerpn occupancy of senatorial chair will have lasted for over half a century.

The menagerie which went east from here is now returning west, and gives its next exhibition in Albany, the rest of the menagerie;going there by different route.' Mir. Romeo was allowed : to bathe his massive form ans the waters of the pond above Rowland X Dennis tannery, and for three hours a large crowd on the banks watched his antics in the water. Romeo enjoyed his bath and sometimes sank en- tirely beneath the water, remaining under for some minutes, and when called upon to come forth, and pursue his journey was reluctant to obey. The keeper was com pelled to strip and twice had to go into the pond after him.
