Aunt Jennie's Letter.

We are glad to have Mrs. Loula
C. B. with US this week, and would
be so delighted to have her come
oftener. Yes, let the men change
places for one week and then see
which would be neatest.
So Young Spunk has been in love
but he found a remedy. Read his
letter and see.
Mrs. S. E. NJ. says that "they must
think that women take to cooking
as ducks take to water" I do not !;
to learn how to cook, for a lesson
learned saves many a tear when rec
itation time comes. Hers is a SEN.
sible letter.
Many thanks, Jim Dorman, for
the photograph of yourself. None
of you have any idea how much I ap-
preciate a photograph of a member
of our Circle, and several members
have been so kind as to send me
theirs. and l have them labled. Since
seeing them often / fell that / am
almost personally acquainted with
the person whose likeness / see.
Mrs. Lille Fillyaw Grace's letter
was written only a few days before
her death. Her mother kindly sent
it to me, and it is a forcible remind
er that in the midst of life and duty
death may claim us. Her last words
to us are helpful ones, and when our
summons comes, may we too be
ready.
Pansy writes us a letter this week
that has common sense, as it's base.
Yes, write oftener. Any implement
will rust if not often used.
Ny boy is not we'll. but is improv-
ing, and l hope to have a longer
chat with you before many weeks.

PROGRESSIVE FARMER AND COTTON PLANT.

Jack K1inard knows a lady who is
the wife of man that is both a
manufacturer and a farmer, and she
works all the time"
But "her hair looks unkempt," and
she sometimes 'goes barefoot" and
wears Mother Hubbard"
should imagine the poor woman
would wear anything that would
make her comfortable; and would
pull OFT her shoes to rest her tired
and aching feet. If Jack thinks he
could do better, let him don a wo-
mans garb. and do the work that
that woman does, and continue for
twelve months time, and if his
skirts do not '1ook like a coal pit"
L will give up my Judgment.
Young Spunk endorses what Xii
nard says. If / live to see my next
birthday, l shall be sixty years old,
and L have never yet known a wo-
man, white Or colored. that would
not dress up, and try to look the best
she could, if she had anything to
dress in, and had the time and the
opportunity. All women desire to
be beautiful. So. Klinard and
Spunk! if you want your wives to
look neat as they do before they are
married, furnish them with the same
opportunities that they are furnish
ed with by their parents. Give them
plenty of fnery and plenty of time
to wear it, and you will always find
them nice and neat. But if you
force them to do the cooking, and all
the drudgery, they will be drudges,
and you may expect them to look
like what they are. Cooking is the
dirtiest and most menial service that
is done for the household. and it is
three times day, three hundred and
sixty-five days in the year, and how
then can the cook look anything but
unkempt and dirty? Verify a SER
want of servants is the cook. Hop
ing this may be benefit to some
others besides Klinard and Spunk,
Yours as ever,

It's Not All "Eve's Fault" Jack.

Dear Aunt Jennie SO Jack Xii
nard thinks he would rather have a
wife with too much temper than one
who was slack in dress. Well, I be-
lieve he is right, too. That man
don't live who does not like to see his
wife dressed neat and stylish at all
times if possible, and especially when
away from home or when there is
company. 1 think if there is one
thing that cuts a man to the quick
more than another it is to see his
wife side by side with other women
and be compelled to notice how far
short she falls in comparison.
No true wife would be extravagant
in dress, but she had better econo-
mize in other matters than that she
should neglect to dress decently.
Why sometimes those men who
make such a fuss over bills are glad
deep down in their hearts that they
have a wife who has pride enough
to keep herself after marriage as
neat and sweet as before" l have
often noticed in a great many un-
happy marriages that the wife had
lost all pride in herself. She dressed
in bad taste, never read book or
paper any more-in fact, seemed to
think her place was "to serve" hus-
band and children, and they were
quite content to let her do so.
What wonder then that sometimes
a weak man is fascinated by
younger and fairer face.
However, there are two sides to
this question, tits not all Gives
fault"
A woman can't always look neat
and clean when she has to do two wo-
mems work with not strength enough
for one. It is hard for the woman
who has to do the washing for
family of five or six children to keep
clean. And right here let me say:
any young man who is not willing or
not able to hire the washing has no

Young Spunk Warns the Girls.

Dear Aunt Jennie:-I know by
experience that A Readers cure for
love is excellent. And [ will advise
anyone who has a bad case to try a
few doses for experiment, and see
how it works.
Jack .Klinard wrote a letter a few
weeks ago on neatness and l en-
dorsed it. Now Helen Watts-McVey
has contradicted it. I can't offer
any apology for what [ said on it.;
though l will admit that it is nee
essary for a woman to put on her
"duds" on some occasions, Or she will
have nothing but "duds." I was re-
ferring only to the woman who is
too careless to wear anything but
these. Of course, the husband has
much to do with it in some cases,
but not in every one, for know men
who try to keep everything in good
order and the women have a good
chance (even better than the men)
to keep everything neat in appear
ance. but they don't. Why not {?
Simply because they "don't care
that's all there is to it.

Farmers Bulletin, No. 2O3, Canned

in it on "Molds and Molding."
From the list of Bulletins pub
lished in The Progressive Farmer of
February 26th, I sent for several,
such as, milk as Food" "Fish as
Food" Sugar as Food" and the
others on the same line, 'Bread and
the Principles of Bread Making"
Half dozen on poultry, several on
fruit and vegetables, flowers and
birds, came in for their share, and
several on other subjects. And I in

little girls. and I hope to live to see
them happily married, but 7 would
far rather see them self lf-supporting
"old maids" than have them marry
a man who expected them to do all
the house work, wash, milk three or
four COWS, etc. They would soon
slip into an old wrapper or anything
else easily put on.
Now, I expect some of our men

moment. I know women who have
a great desire to keep everything
clean and neat, while the husband
don't care. Now anything goes,
just so he gets his lunch and "the
dollar" He will not even give his
wife the chance to do her house work
as she wants to. God be pitiful to
a woman who marries a man with
such a nature! Girls, be careful
that you don't marry such a man.
There are plenty of such fellows to-
day, and if you don't be sharp you
will get one before you learn his dis

basket does not seem so alarming.

so 1t will be with our graveyards.
But the building of monuments in

Some time ago there was an arti-
Gle In The Progressive Farmer from
man, advising young men to marry
women that can cook, but not to
marry cooks. The following nursery
jingle fits his advice exactly:
Mother! may [ go out to swim?
r. Yes, my darling doughter,

but don't go near the water"
Now, If / wanted a house built I

At the urgent request of his many friends and admirers, Corse Payton himself will appear atfthe matinee and evening performances of his comedy company at the New Haven theater to-day. An erroneous impression has gone forth that the genial Corse does not own the company, that it merely wears his name, and so as to convince all who are in doubt he will ;wpear
 here today and deliver one of his witty speeches, and tell them all about it. MT. Bunnell saw MT. Payton at his beautiful Lee Ave. theater, Brooklyn, on Saturday, and he promised to be with us to-day. The success for, number of years past of the Corse Payton attractions is the strongest proof of this genius as a manager. Each year his companies visit the same cities, and at every stop ping point are welcome visitors. Whyg Because they give perfect perform ances of the latest popular metropoli- tan successes with a first class compa- ny and a scenic and property dressing not given to plays except when special
 productions are made. The people en,
 gagged this season for the Corse Pay ton Comedy company, besides Thomas
 IrWain, leading man, and Miss Ida
 Glenn, leading lady, are the best MT.
 Irwin, leading man, and Miss Ida will on Monday afternoon begin a one
 week engagement at the New Haven the ater, presenting for their first play that sterling success and charming drama, The Parisian Princess, which has never
 been seen outside the of the high-pric' ed theaters before Mr. Payton obtain ed the rights of production. The prices at the evening performances will be 10, 20 anl 30 cents, and at the matinees 10 and 20 cents.
 The repertoire will be: Tonight, Cumberland '61;" Tuesday matinee, Crime at the Altar" Tuesday even ing, "Weath and Poverty" wednes- day matinee and evening, Captain of
 the Nonesuch;' Thursday matinee and evening, "An Enemy to the Crown" Friday matinee and evening, ''When Her Soul Speaks;" Saturday evening, His Great Crime" Curtain rises at 2 and p. m. sharp. Seat sale now open.

Phroso opens at Polls this afternoon a weeks engagement. This latest Eu- ropean sensation has caused a furore in the vaudeville world. In the lead ing European cities Phroso was the cause of intense excitement and in New York city the mystery was the cause of lots of comment.
 Besides the top line feature there are numerous other big features that will help to make the Poli bill another big rosing success. One of the big feature acts is to be Bert Leslie and Robert Daley, late stars of the Paris by Night company. They will present a comedy creation entitled Going Abroad and the fun in this is said to be of the fast and furious variety. Both are clever fun makers of the best qualifications.

Filled at Morning Service.
 The anniversary services at the Grace Methodist church yes terday morning were of a most inspir- ing and impressive character. The Rev. Frank A. scof1eld, the pastor of Grace church for four successive years from 1882 to 1887, now the popularp as tor of the First Methodist church of Meriden, one of the largest and most fiourishirg churches of New Eigland Methodisna, preached a most able and eloquet sermon upon "The Unlimited Resources of the Church, or the Inex. ahaustible Fountain of Grace He closed his discourse with brief re- view of the history Of the church and an optimistic prophecy for greater vic tories and greater successes in the flu. ture.
 The church was crowded with peo. pie who listened from the beginning to the close of the masterly address with tunabated interest. +~.;
 Grace church was organized July 4, 1852, by the Rev. John E. Searles, as a missionary under the auspices of so- cietyof ladies from the First and John street churches, the riaenf',ers coming from both these societies.
 . The first meeting was in a hall, but in the next year church was built, and dedicated early in 1854 as the George Street church. Here the soci- ety worshipped until 1889, when the church was sold to the German Luther ans for $1s,0O0, including the organ. A building site was selected in another part of the city and the present church edifice was erected and dedicated as Grace church on September 22, 1s99
 During the fifty-three years the so. ciety has been served by faithful pas tors, most of whom have entered into their rest and reward.
 About thirty three years ago the membership became reduced by death and by letters (sixty) given to mem bers to assist in forming new soci. ety, now Trinity. The question of dis banding the church was debated in an official meeting, and upon being put to g vote resulted in a tie, six to six, and the church was saved.
 The Rev. A. J. Smith, the present pastor, is now serving his fifth year with the church. During his pastorate 200 members have been added to the church, which now numbers 634 mem bers.
 He has just received call to be- come the pastor of the M. E. church at Jamaica, N. Y, and also a unani. nous invitation from the. official board of the First M. F. church at Danbury to become their pastor, the latter call he will probably accept, sz25.s
