least consumption of fuel. She makes
an intelligent use of the proper utensils,

those for whom she works. She pevor

follows directioas. She begins her
preparation in tine, and does not have
to rush things at the galloping point
in order TO have dinner on time. Her
stove is never red-hot on top, nor her
cooking utensils burnt out because of
too great heat. She puts brains in the
pot with the meat" and seasons every
dish with care, watchfulness and

trayagant cook. and bad cooking Will
spoil the most expensive material,
while good cooking will make of cheap

Every mother possesses information
which is OF vital interest to her young
daug hter.
Too often this is never impaired or is
withheld until serious harm has result
ed to the growing girl through her
ignorance of natures mysterious and
wonderful laws and penalties.
Girls over-sensitiveness and modesty
often puzzle their mothers and battle
physicians. as they SO often withhold
their confidence from their mothers
and conceal the symptoms which ought
to be told to their physician at this
critical period.
When n girls thoughts become slug

position to sleep, pains in back or lower

DISCOVERY OF THE COLUMBIA.

The work of Individual explorers is
not always recognized or remembered.
The story OF Robert Gray, OF Boston,
who discovered the great river Of the
West and named it Columbia after his
ship, is but little known. In 1877 a
number of Boston men formed part
nership TO trade on the Pacific. This
was a number of years before Lewis
and Clark reached the Columbia. writes
Agnes C. Laut in Leslie's Magazine,
and almost twenty years before Astor
had thought of his Pacific company.
The first voyage was one of adventure
and peril, but it was on the second
trip to trade among the savages for
furs that Gray found the great river.
The first expedition consisted of two
vessels, the larger cFae named the Col
umbia, and commanded by Captain
John Kendrick. The smaller, COM
manded by Gray, was a little sloop of
ninety tons, called the Lady Washing
ton.
Some heroes blunder into glory.
These did NOT. They deliberately set
out with the full glory OF their venture
in view. Whatever the profit and loss
might show when they came back. they
were well aware that they were at
tempting the biggest and most venture
some thing any of their countrymen
had essayed in the way of exploration
and trade.
Gray's little sloop distanced the Col-
umbia and cruised over a great area.
First it rounded the north end of Van
couver, and proved that this was an

DUEL BY AVALANCHE.

Two young Italians. named Guetta
and Sorato. both in their teens, and liv-
ing in little village near Bellinzona.
fell in love with tile same girl. who
is said TO have liked both suitors
equally well.
The young men. after many serious
quarrels. decided on very original
plan 10 settle the dispute. Informing
their parents that they were going on
an excursion to the mountains. they
set out for the splugen Pass. which is
ncsorious for its avalanches at this
time of year.
Choosing the ostexposed slope, they
agreed that each should stand for two
hours each day between 9 and II
a. M, the most dangerous tlme) in the
path of the avalanche and allow fate
to decide their destiny.
For three mornings these conditions
were carried out, but nothing serious
happened, though several ayalanches
came down the slope. but not near the
fonlhardy youths.
On the fourth day an enormous ava
lanche passed near Guetta, who was
knocked down by the rush of air, but
not hurt.
As the young men had no more food
left, they returned to the village TO
procure some. but the authorities got
wind of the affair, and threatened them
with imprisonment. The youths then
decided to draw lots for the girl. and
Sorato won. Guetta left the village
and the young couple were married
next day.-London Express.

rnE eENERAL REMEMRERED.

When Wellington was engaged in the
Peninsular War one of his fayorite
generals was Crawford, who. although
Il stern dlsciplinarian, was greatly ad-
mired by his soldiers. In "Wellington's
Lieutenants" the author tells of an in
cldent which won for Crawford ;he
affection of his soldiers us well as
their esteem:
One day, when Costello was on
guard. Crawford came riding up with
his orderly. when two men burst out of
house with some bread they had
stolen. At that time the division was
on very short commons.
The men We're holly chased by {
Spanish woman, shouting. "Ladrons.
Ladronen'
The General and his orderly cut into
the pursuit, the ioaves We're given back
to the woman, and the thieves sent
to the guard-house.
But there was strange sequel TO
that incident. The next day the men
were tried by brigade court martial.
and sentenced to punishment. The
brigade was formed up: the proceed
ings of the court martial We're read.
and the General proceeded to improve
the occasion by iecturing officers and
men.
strip, sir" he snid. addressing him
self, by way of peroration. to cor
poral who was one of the offenders.
The man submitted to be tied up in
silence; then turning TO the General, he
said:
General Crawford, hope you VIII
forgive me-"
"No, sir; your crime is TOO great
If the crime was great. the penalty
was severe; he had TO be reduced to
the ranks and receive 100 lashes. Then
he made another appeal:
DO you recollect. sir. when under
command of General Whitelocke. in
Buenos Ayres, we were marched pris-
oners with number Of others to a
pound surrounded by Il wall? There
was well in the centre. out of which
l drew water with my mess-tin, by
means of canteen straps l collected

my kindness. 1t is now in your power,
sir: you know how short we have been
of rations for some time"
The whole square was touched and
waited. The bugler told off to lnhict
the punishment. after an interval. re-
ceived the usual signal from the bugle-
major. The first lash was laid on.
Then the General exclaimed:
"Who taught that bugler 10 fog?
