70 Re ! Good Cook.

ITO be a good cook means the
knowledge of all fruits, herbs, balms
and spices; and of all that is healing
and sweet in fields and groves, savory
in meats; it means carefulness, in
ventiveness, watchfulness, willingness
and readiness Of appliance; it means
the economy Of your great-grandmoth-
ers and the science of modern chem
lists; it means much testing and no
wasting; it means English thorough
ness, French art and Arabian hospi-
tally; it means, in fine, that you are
to be perfectly and always ladies
(loaf-givers), and you are to see that
everybody has something nice to
eat. Ruskin.

By CAPT. A. H. WADDELL)
If we are good judges OF human ma
ture, or able to Judge others by their
biographers, we should feel very much
inclined to lay $40 bill to 10c piece
that the willy Richard" who once
made himself hoarse shouting "A
Horse, Horse, my Kingdom for a
Horse" wanted good one.
Richard had just killed five Rich
monds, or thought he had, and was
looking for another when his horse
was killed under him. and when he
uttered his memorable words. Yes,
he wanted horse and he wanted one
badly enough. but, he wanted good
one.
A good horse was what he wanted,
good horses are what we all want, and
it is only the large breeder who can
really tell US, how many bad horses
he breeds, for one good one that he
sells This is in large measure due
to haphazard methods in breeding;
breeders are not careful enough in
the selection of their parent stock, nor
do they take pains enough to ascertain
the peculiarities and characteristics of
the families from which the parent
stock comes.
In the trotting horse everything has
been neglected for speed and in the
thoroughbred in this country, nothing
but this element has been considered;
the result is too well known to be re-
capitulated. Notwithstanding this no
body seems to try to remedy the de-
fects that this near sightedness has
produced There is not one trotting
horse in a thousand whose anatomical
formation, physical and constitutional
soundness, will permit him to become
a 2:10 trotter, nor is there one race
horse in the same number that can
gallop mile in first class company
with any chance of winning, for the
same reason.
Breeders no not give sufficient care
to individuality, size, bone, substance,
and soundness; they never think Of
temper or temperament and only con-
slider speed, which, although inherited
on both sides is useless in a weakling.
Stamps and types of horses and
ponies have been bred which are well
exemplified in the Shire, Clydesdale,
Suffolk, Percheron, Belgium and Hack
ney. Why cannot this obtain in some
measure at least in the trotter and
thoroughbred in America? 1t does in
other countries and why should it not

Too Much Economy.

An eminent musician tells of trip
when he and a butter merchant of
Philadelphia crossed the ocean on the
same steamer. There were few pas
sengers on. board, and the musician
was glad of the quiet, so that he could
compose. Often he would sit down at
a table by himself In the smoking
room and busy himself for six or
seven hours at stretch with pen and
manuscript paper. The butter dealer
watched the musicians doings with
great interest and one day tried to
coax the musician to take a walk on
deck. The musician declined courte-
ously, offering the excuse that he had
a great deal more music to write.
"But, my dear man. said the man
Of butter, what are you doing that
for? Economy is all right, but one
must not go to extremes. Why don't
you buy the pieces instead Of copying

Tell me, We rowing winds,

Where scandal has no place?

Where weary ones may rest
And be from slnader free?

But firmly answered "no. oh no,
Tell me, We little birds
That fit from shore to shore;
Do you not know some place
Where tattling is no more?
You go from north to south,
7 From east to west you rove,
Do you not find some land
Where all is peace and love?
The sweet bird answered from the
nest,
There's no such place where you
can rest.
Tell me, bright sunbeams
That shine in every cline,
And in your beauty bright,
Are dancing all the time;
Do you not know some land,
Though far beyond the sea,
Where from the slanderous tongue
Poor mortals may be free?

Just paused to whisper, mot or
