her sister Carlotta and her brother
Carlo, had spent her early childhood.

bride of Lsmmermoor waiting to go
on the stage with her own black tresses

"Why. Addie, what does this mean?"

hair tonight" answered the budding
prima donna.
"But you must not. 1t is inartistic,
inaccurate, absurd"
"0h. no, it is not absurd" calmly
responded Patti. "My old friends in
New Orleans only know me as black

a golden-crowned Scotch girl. Besides,
I will not disguise myself tonight to

Good bedding for Horses.

A good way to keep horses clean in
the stable is to clean out all dirt, etc.
and then cover the floor about three
or four inches thick with dry saw
dust, as far back in stall as the horse
usually stands, then cover the saw
dust with straw, or bedding that you
may use. The sawdust will absorb
the moisture and therefore make the
other bedding last longer in case it
is scarce. The sawdust should be re-
placed by fresh occasionally.

How to Cook oxsterx,

The cooking of oysters, especially
when they are for an invalid, requires
great care, for, while it is important
that they should be sufficiently done,
they must not be ,overcooked, or they
will be leathery and indigestible. Take
the oysters from the shells and put
them and the liquor into small sauce
pan with just enough cold fish broth
to cover them and place the pan over a
clear fire. Watchi closely, and direct
ly boiling commences draw the pan to
the side of the stove and leave it for
two minutes: then drain the oysters,
