HE pIsosgYEo ORDERS.
A Brilliant FrSaeh omssr's First Achieve
ucnt on The Field of Battle.


mcnt on the Field Of Battle.
Ieieune, ihe brilliant aid-de-camp
Of the Narshals Berihier, Dlyout and
Oudinot, gives a very interesting ac-
count of his first achievement on the
field of battle The French army was
crossing the Alps and found itself CON-
PEELED to attack ct great disadvantage
a town which the Austriaas wee de-
lending.
Young Lajeune, who was anxious TO
participate in the engagement, was
greatly disappointed when he was or
dered to remain at his post in the rear.
When the firing began, his heart beat
furiously, and as the attack progressed
he felt that he could not remain passive
while his fellow soldiers were perform
ing deeds Of valor.
Believing himself unnoticed, he hur-
ried forward, forgetting that the sol
dier's first duty is obedience, and just
where the fray seemed TO be thickest he
found himself face To face with his COM
manding officer. The general looked at
the rash young soldier coldly.
"Sinoe you have quilted your post, -
he said. you may take this order and
recall that company that has gone into
q bad position. F"
Lejeune heard the order with a
strange sensation, for this was an er
rand from which he was not likely 10
return alive There was no escape, how
ever, and touching his cap he started on
his perilous mission with a quaking
heart.
For some distance he crept along be-
Eiud a pile Of rocks that protected him
from the fire of the enemy, but at last
Ehis shelter came 10 an end Before him
there remained 100 steps 70 be taken
under the FIRE Of zoo guns pointed
Straight at Kim.
To go forward was, he believed, GER
tain death To go back would be eter-
nal disgrace. The whole army seemed
like an amphitheater around him.
Should he prove himself coward or
hero?
If 1 die" Thought he, "it will be
only the just penalty of my disobedi-
ence; If 1 accomplish my mission, l
shall have proved that am worthy yet
to fight in the emperor's army"
So thinking. he rushed across the
open space amid q storm of cannon balls
and musket shot. Not one of the mes
sengers Of death touched him, and as if
b. a miracle he arrived safe and sound
IN the French lines. The delivery of
that order saved the battalion and de-
cided the destiny Of the young officer.

a young bUtanist was showing a par
ty Of ladies and gentlemen through the
conservatory and explaining to them
the properties of some of the choicest
plants.
Among the visitors was would be
young looking middle aged lady, who
at every description volunteered tho
statement that the plants and flowers
she had at home We're quite equal to
anything exhibited here or indeed any
where just as they were passing a
giant cactus she was heard to exclaim:
Well, this is nothing extraordinary.

Mrs.. norer Tells Ros Confections May Be

Mrs. s T. ROrer tells how 70 make
candies at home in The Ladies' Home
Journal and gives tho following rules,
which. insure the success q the work:
"Never stir the sugar and water after
the sugar has dissolved. Wipe down
constantly the granuies forming ON the
side Of the saucepan. Do not shake CT
move the saucepan while the sirup Is
boiling. As soon as the sugar begins 10
boil watch It carefully. having IL your
hand a bowl Of ice water, 80 tha. you
may try the sirup almost constantly
Have everything IN readiness before be-
ginning. If the sugar grains, use 1t Tor

Use only the best granulated sugar for

kneading. II your fondant grains with
out apparent cause, you may have boil
ed it a little too long. A few d-ops Of
lemon juice or a little cream Of tartar
will prevent this FoDdant is the soft
mixture which forms both the inside of
the French candies and the material in
which they are dipped, and it is TO OBJ
tain this that the sugar is boiled.
After the sugar has reached the
soft ball, a senihard condition, it
must be poured carefully into large
meat plate OF On a marble slab. Do not
scrape the saucepan or you viii granu-
late the sirup Mako your fondant one
day and make itup into candy the next.
Never melt fondant by placing the
saucepan Immediately On the stove.
Prevent the danger of scorching by
standing the pan containing it in Ia
sin Of water. If the melted fondant is
too thick, add water most cautiously,
drop at time. 4 half teaspOonful more
than is necessary viii ruin the whole.
To cool candy place it in cool, dry
place. To keep candy put it between
layers Of waxed paper in Tin boxes. II
the day is bright and clear, the sugar
loses its sickness quickly therefore
select a fine day for your candy max

IHE EDUCATION OF THE DEAF
The Feature of the Convention Of
the N. 6. A.
TRUE METHODS DESCRIBED

Probably there is no other subject more in
teresting both to educators and laymcn alike
at the present time, than the education of
the defective classes: the deaf. the dumb
and the blind, in whose path to mental i'm
provement nature has placed such appall-
ing obstacles. The large audience that as
sembled in the National Theater last night
therefore dwelt with great earnestness
upon every word uttered by DR.. L. NJ Gal
laudet when he told of the deaf aud their
possibilities. Easily the leading authority
of the world in this important sphere Of
modern education, DR.. Gallaudet added a
valuable contribution to the literature he
has so frequently adorned heretofore. and
his paper will be read with eagerness
everywhere.
DR.. Gallaudet was introduced by the pre-
siding officer, Herain Hadley, vice presi-
dent of the y. L. A. for New Mexico, and
was warmly greeted. He spoke as follows:
Il trust may not be thought egotistical
when begin with a word as to my per
sondl connection with the education OF the
deaf.
1T has been my privilege to be associated
with this class of persons for more than
forty years as a teacher and as an oD-
server.

in more than two score of the schools for
the deaf in this country, and in a greater
