Happiness and Cooks.

More marriages are brought about
by music and moonlight than the
world dreams of, and more marri-
ages are spoiled by careless cook
ing and cold roast pork than by cool
ing affections or lack Of love.
Noyeists write a great deal about
broken hearts and blighted hopes,
and the world weeps over the pathos
and pity Of the whole business. But
how many people are there in the
world with tear shed for the ruined
digestion that is at the root Of the
whole trouble2
a large proportion Of housekeep-
ers, doubtless misled by the appar-
emily east iron digestions Of their
younger brothers, entertain the idea
that all men are endowed with the
constitution OF dust destruetor
which can consume tin cans, old UNI
brcllas and coal ashes with equal
impartiality.

THE UPTo-DATE farmer can esti-
mate quite closely what amount of
work his men do in day, and the
way in which he does it is very in
genious. Assuming thata good pillow
man will walk about eighteen miles
a day, he proceeds to determine how
much land will be gone over in that
walk The factor in the case is the
width of the pillow. Cuttinga finch
furrow, full days work will mean
the blowing of an acreand aquarter /;
an S.inch furrow will mean an acre

before beginning the work, and also
