Novel Oysters.-A novel way of serv-
ing oysters is to cut the top off of a
freshly baked loaf of bread, remove
the sponge and, fill the cavity with
creamed oysters, put in in layers, with
intervening layers of bread crumbs.
When full replace the top of the loaf,
cover the latter with the beaten yolk
of an egg, and set it in the oven to
glaze. This makes a pretty dish il
served on wreath of parsley. This
placed on the dish with their stems
turned in, so that the loaf will conceal
all but the leaves.
Sardine Salad.-Take twelve bone
less sardines, lay in colander and
pour boiling water quickly over them
to remove the oil, then place on ice
until firm. If the sardines are high
grade ones and genuinely imported,
the washing may be dispensed with,
but if the oil on them tastes at all
doubtful it had better be removed.
Line salad bowl with fresh, crisp
lettuce leaves, lay in it the sardnes,
sprinkle over them two chopped hard
boiled eggs and serve with a French

Training Our Children.

Training Our Children.
John Thompson, phrenologist,
says in the Phrenologist Journal that
young children have no reason nor
experience to guide them. This
theory of Mr.. Thompson's must be
nearing the right ideas. He further
says:
They are as irresponsible as our
domestic animals. Parents who are
ignorant of this fact, or who shut
their eyes to it, are almost sure to be
cruel. They expect and often try to
enforce implicit obedience and per-
feet behavior. They do not expect so
much from any other creature so
young. 1t is impossible for children
to obey such unreasonable demands.
Children can not know what they
are required to do until they are
taught. Instinct does not guide them.
Moreover, the brain is not strong
enough in infancy to retain all first
impressions. Besides, so many things
are required of children that are con-
trary to nature, that it takes years of
training before they can be estab-
lished in such unnatural habits. They
are expected to 'sit still'' and ''be
quiet" When visitors are in the
house they must be ''seen and not
heard" And all this in face of the
fact that children are above all things
restless Or active, and generally fond
of talking and asking questions-wise
provisions of nature to insure growth
of body and instruction.. They are
almost constantly being told not to
do things that they can see no harm
in doing. The word "dont' is SO fire.
quently employed that the poor little
folks may we'll get confused and won
der if there is anything they may do.
Parents are liable to forget that all
training" should have for it's object a
useful, virtuous and noble manhood
and womanhood. They should not
expect to make their children perfect
men and women in behavior while
they are still so young. The ultimate
aim should be kept in mind, and all
useless and provoking interferences
avoided. Much evil is done by the al
most perpetual Irritating "DOn't."
"You mustn't" "Will your" ''Put
that down." "Let that Alone" and
such meddlesomeness. No intelligent
person who will reflect upon the eff
fects of such training can fail to see
that it is the best method for making
naturally good child bad, and that
it can never make bad child better.

have combined to make most fasci-
mating book for young and old. Tom
my-Anne-shortened from Diana, the
heroine's real name with the prefix re-
vealing something of her nature-was
like many other inquiring children,
eager to know and to see into things,
and exercise the prerogative of child
hood to ask questions. Receiving a
pair of magic glasses, she used them
in such menner in looking into the
heart of nature, that she also learns
some of the mysteries of the heart OF
God and the heart of man. The book
is illustrated by the drollest of pic
lures by Mr.. Albert D. Blashfeld, and
adds so little to the attractiveness OF
the book.
A delightful book for the ''children
of a larger growth" is 'Chapters from
Life" by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps.
Some will be most pleased with the re-
miniscences of noted personages-Mrs.
Harriet Beecher Stowe, Mr.. James T.
Fields, DR.. Holmes, Lydia Maria
Childs, Celia Thaxter, Phillips Brooks
and others. More serious natures will
be interested in the growth and devel-
opment of the chief character, that of
the writer herself. Mrs. Ward insists
most strongly upon the hereditary in
fuences governing her life rather than
those of circumstances and personal
environment or influence. Yet both
forces must have played an equal part,
for she could not remember the time
when her father did not write books;
and her mother, the authoress of
'%Sunnyside," 'The Angel on the Right
Shoulder" wrote stories for her chill
dren and illustrated them with colored
crayons. The mother was fond of
color, and dyed the coats of her chill
dren red and canary yellow with
white oak dye-a touching fact, let
ting us into the secret of the little
economies of the professors house
hold. Elizabeth's allowance of pocket
money was for years three cents a
week, and she, the daughter of her
father, does not hesitate to tell us
that it did not go into the Sunday
school treasury for the benefit of the
heather, but went ''solidly for cream
cakes and apple turnovers alternately,
one each week. Some of the pleas
ATTEST reading in the book is that
which tells how "The Old Maids Para
dise'' came to be built, and of the life
there in Gloucester.

A HELPFUL CORNER.
What Must the Children Read.

we wish to help just such anxious
ones and offer the following from
Table Talk, an excellent exchange:
There are the old books that are
ever new, the Bible, "Pilgrim's Pro
gress," Robinson Crusoe," Charles
and Mary Lambs 'Tales from Shake
speare,'' the Had in Chapman's trans
lation, and other ''old books from
which, as Chaucer says, "Cometh all
this new science that men lere." But
at times, from the carloads that are
yearly turned out from the publishers
presses, we come upon one that is OF
more ephemeral interest. Such one,
first published perhaps thirty years
ago, is ''Hans Brinker, or the Silver
Skates" This is story of Holland,
of the most absorbing interest as
story and withal the scenes in that
country of canals and windmills are so
graphically described, that the book
yields most powerful fascination on
the readers mind. A handsome new
edition has recently been brought out,
beautifully illustrated by Albert B.
Doggett, who has made a journey to
Holland for that special purpose. 1T
is a good book to put into the trunk
when preparation is made for the
seasons outing. 1t will be refreshing
reading for sultry afternoon in Au-
gust.
Another charming book for the
summer trunk is Mrs William Star
Dana's ''P1ants and their Children
In language that can be comprehend
ed by all but the very youngest, the
writer describes the mysterious pro-
cesses of nature so far as they regard
''The herb yielding seed, and the fruit
tree yielding fruit after his kind,
whose seed is in ITSELF" Children as
we'll as older people, cannot help being
beguiled to read chapters that have
such titles as GLOW the Apple Shields
it's Young" "Some Cousins of the
Apple" can Impatient Plant Baby
How we shall be wooed out on a sum
mer's day to feel the witchery there Is
SIN the Woods" and when it is nearly
time for the homeward fitting, we
shall be lured to stay little longer to
watch the seeds take their aerial jour-
neys in their fairy sail boats, and to
make acquaintance with some tramps
of the vegetable world. The chapter,
"How Plants Food is Cooked" may
perhaps furnish suggestion even to
the accomplished cooks of the Table
Talk circle.
Another book which admits us into
many of the secrets and mysteries of
that dear, wise old mother, Nature, is

OARS ON SIKH STREET.

An Electric Line to Run From Geary to
tho Mission.
A committee representing the Sixth.
street Improvement Club. accompanied
by President Dohrmann and Secretary
Freud of the Merchants Association,
called upon Manager Vining of the Mar.
ket-street Railway Company yesterday
morning regarding the desired improve
ment OF the. service upon Sixth street.
The Sixth-street committee consisted oil
L. V. Merle, H. Israel, J. Farrell, ]. Wolf,
Henry Ellsbach and s. Rosenthal.
Secretary Willcutt OF the Geary-street
Railway Company also attended the con-
ference. After consideration of the va
rious possible connections with Sixth
street electric system, it was finally de-
cided that the best plan would be to have
an electric -oad run along Sixth street
to Market and along Taylor street to
Geary.
At the intersection of Geary and Taylor
streets transfers would be given TO connect
viii the Western Addition.
The committee of the Sixth-street I'M
provement Club was fully satisfied with
this plan and decide ed to call upon Mayor
Phelan to request that the present unused
rails on Taylor street be allowed to re-
main for the purpose of carrying out this
proposed electric road that would connect
Sixth street with the balance of the CITY
and give modern street railway equip

strom he found TO be equally worthy, and
in deciding the case he put them both on
the same equality of excellence and ma
tronly worth. So Jar as the testimony OF
Bert Joy against Mrs. Holstrom was con-
cerned, he disregarded that altogether.
He thought Joy vile creature beneath
the consideration of all human beings.
From the testim ony Judge Seawell said
he found that Mrs. d'Artenay never ex-
pected to get her chiid back until she
heard that Mrs. Holstrom wished to give
it up. That WAS false information, as it
was shown conclusively that Mrs. Hol-
stroEi never had any such intention.
The provision of the code quoted by Mr..
Sullivan, if taken alone, would be conclu-
sive in establishing the right of the actual
mother 10 the custody of the child, but
Mr.. Deuprey, re epresenting Mrs. Holstrom.
had made the strong point that the other
provisions OF the codes must be read and
construed in connection with it. He said
that the decisions of the California Su-
preme Court are in line with the senti.
ment expressed in the American State
Reports, page 1872, whereit is said: In ach
case due regard will be given to the feel
ings and wishes OF the parent, yet the con-
trolling consideration is the welfare OF the
child"
The Supreme Court of Wisconsin Us
Wis. 81 has added: AFTER the affections
OF both tine child and adopted parent be-
come engaged and state of things has
arisen which cannot be altered without
risking the happiness of the child, and the
parent seeks TO reclaim il, the better
opinion is that he is not in q position 20
secure the interference OF court in his
favor"
Judge Seawell said that the statute oi
California leaves open the inquiry as to
the suitableness of the parent for the pur-
pose of tsking sucn custody, and it seems
quite obvious that if for any cause the
welfare of the infant demands that its
care and custody be withheld from the
parent and given to another the parent is
not suitable person to have such care
and custody within the meaning of the
statute.
In view of the circumstances it seemed
to the court that it would be better for the
foster mother to have the custody of the
child Etfie and it was so ordered.
Mrs. Hoistrom sprang forward and took
the child from the arms OF its tenn porary
custodian and quickly left the courtroom,
but she could not keep from crying, and
her tears seemed to surprise the little one,
who patted her foster mothers cheek and
prattled loving words il her ear while be-
ing borne from the City Hail.
Mr.. Sullivan asked to have the record
made up in legal form, saying that he in
tended to take an appeal to the Supreme
Court.

TO COMMEMORATE HEROIC ACTS
Ladies of the G. A. x. VIII Plant Tree
In the Capitol Grounds.

Ladies of the G. A. X. Will Plant Trees
In the Capitol Grounds.
The memorial grove" committee OF
the Ladies of the G. A. r. has decided>to
plant trees in the Capitol grounds at
Sacramento on May next.
The trees have almost all arrived from
the noted battlefields of the War of the
Rebellion, and will be placed nearly in
circle, in the center OF which Will be
planted two cannons and an anchor from
the old warship Pensacola. These will
represent the naval battles. as the trees
do the land com bats. This is the first
grove OF the kind ever planted in the
United States. The project is attracting
great attention and commendaton, not
only from all old soldiers, but all patriotic
people in the East as we'll as here.
1t is expected that the ceremonies will
be elaborate, as all the posts OF the G. A.
R., Relief Corps and Sons and Daughters
of Veterans will be invited to participate.
as we'll as the Governor and other State
officers. The children and grandchildren n
of the old soldiers will assist in planting
the trees.
To Eliza III. Waggoner, the chairman of
the com mittee, is due the credit of the
conception OF the idea OF planting such a
grove and much of the work in carving it
to a successful termination, ably aided by
the department president, Sister Bell s.
Herr. both OF Sacramento city, as we'll as
by the united assistance and cordial sun
port OF the ladies' of the whole order in the
entire State,
