Is I t Doue?

BY ELLA WHEELER.

It ts done. In the five’s fitful Hashes The last line has withered and curled;

In a tiny white heap of dead ashes Lie buried the hopes o f your world.

There were mad, foolish vows iu each letter— It is well they have shriveled and burned.

Ami the ring—ah! the ring was a fe tter- It was bette* removed, and relumed.

And yet is it done? In the embers Where letters and tokens were cast,

Ilaveyou burned up the mind that remembers, And treasures its beautiful past?

Do yon think, in this sw ift,reckless fashion, To ruthlessly burn and destroy

The months that were freighted xvith passion The dreams that xvere drunken xxuth joy?

Ilaveyou burned up the touch o f warm fin­gers

That thrilled thro'each pulse and each vein, Or the sound o f a voice that still lingers,

And hurts with its h uniting refrain?Have you burned up the rapture o f kisses

That throbbed from the lips to the soul;Or the heart that grows sick for lost blisses,

Iu spite o f its strength o f control?

Is it done? Is tlie lire*drama ended?Y**u have put all the lights out, and yet,

'l ho*«lie curtain, m ug do in, has descended.Can the actors go home and forget?

Ah, no! they will turn in their sleeping.With a strange resile *s pain at their hearts,

And in sorrow, anguish, and weeping,AY ill dream they are playing their parts.

WINNING THE WIDOW.

uOh. what :v handsome man!” cried Mrs Hunter, with great delight ; ‘ ‘ami such a charming accent, too.”

Mrs. Hunter was a widow — rich, childless, fair, and thirty-live — and she made Uie remark above recorded to NLr. Hunting', bachelor, who had come to pay au afternoon call, apropos of the departure o f Professor La Fontaine, who hud. according* to etiquette, taken his departure ou the arrival of Hr. Burning'.

"Don't like to contradict a lady.” said Wr. Bunting, “ but I can’t, agree with yon ; and foreigners are generally impostors, too."

Mrs.. Hunter shook her head eoquet- tishly. She was rather coquettish and rather gushing' for her age.

“ till, you gentlemen! you gentle­men!" she said; “ I can’ t see that you ever do justice to each other.”

And then she rang the bell and or­dered the servants to bring tea, and pressed Bachelor Bunting to stay to partake o f it.

There was a maiden aunt of eighty in the house, to play propriety,bind allow her to have as many bachelors to tea as she eliosc, and Mr. Bunting for­got his jealousy, and was once more happy, lie was. truth to toll, very much in love with the widow, who was his junior by fifteen years, lie liked the idea o f living on the interest o f her money, too. She was a good housekeeper and a fine pianist. She was popular and good-looking. He intended to oiler himself for her ac­ceptance as soon as ho felt sure that she would not refuse him. But this dreadful Professor La Fontaine, with black eyes as big as saucers, and long iile whiskers—black, also, as any ra­

ven's wing—had the advantage o f be­ing' the widow's junior. This oppor­tunity to make a fool o f herself is so irresistible to every widow, It troub­led his dreams a good deal—not that he thought him handsome. Oh. no! But still, at fifty a man docs not desire a rival, however he may despise him.

“ She did not ask him to stay, and she did me." said Mr. Bunting, and de­parted, after a most delightful evening, during which the maiden aunt, (wlio was at least as deaf as a post) snored sweetly in her chair.

Buraias! ou the very next evening his spy was overcast. Professor La Fontaine took the widow to the opera. He saw them enter the doors of the opera house, and having followed and secured a seat in a retired portion of the house, also noticed that the Profes­sor kept his eyes fixed on the lady’s face in the most impressive manner during the whole o f the performance, and that she now and then returned his glances.

“ It can't go on,” said Mr. Bunting- to himself. “ I can’ t allow it. She’ ll re­gret it all her life. I must remonstrate with her. No woman likes a coward. Faint heart never won fair lady. She ’ ll admire me for speaking out.”

And that very evening Mr. Bunting trotted up to the widow’s house, full o f a deadly purpose, and with a set speech learned oil by heart. The speech he forgot as lie crossed the threshold. The purpose abided with him. There were tlie usual remarks about the weather. The usual chit­chat followed, but the widow saw that Mr. Bunting was not at liis ease.

A t last, with the sort o f plunge that a timid bather makesinto chilly water, he dashed into tlie subject nearest liis heart.

“Tie’s a rascal, ma’am, I give you my word.”

“ Oh, dear! "Who is it?” cried the widow.

“ That frog-eater,” replied the bache­lor. “ Upon my soul, 1 speak for your own good. I am interested in your welfare. Don’t allow his visits. You don’t know a tiling about liim.”

“ Do von allude to Monsieur La Fon­taine?” asked Mrs. Ilun ter solemnly. .

“ I allude to that fellow.” said Bach­elor Bunting. “ Why, liis very pres­ence proves him to be a rascal. I—I'd enjoy kicking him out so much, I—”

“ Sir,” said the widow, “ i f you have n’ t been drinking, I really think you must ho mad.”

“ Ma’am!” cried Mr. Bunting. “ Perhaps, however, I should take no

notice o f such conduct,” said Mrs. Hunter. “ Perhaps I should treat it with silent contempt.”

“ Oh, good gracious!” cried Bachelor Bunting: “ don’ t treat me with silent contempt. It’s my affection for ybu that urges me on. I adore you. Have me. Accept me. Marry me, and he mine to protect you from all audacious Frenchmen.”

The widow’s heart was melted. She burst into tears.

“ Oh, what shall I say?” she sobbed, “ I thought you merely a friend. I—I —I—am engaged to tlie professor; lie proposed yesterday evening.”

Bachelor Bnntinghad dropped down on liis kuces while making the offer Now he got up with a groan—not en­tirely caused by disappointed love, for lie had the rheumatism.

“ Farewell, false one,” he said, feeling for his hat without looking for i t ; leave you forever.”

Ho strode away, banging the door after him, The w idow cried and then laughed, and then cried again. In fact, she had a regular lit o f what the maid en aunt called “ stericks,” and the chain bermaid “high strikes,” before she was brought to and prevailed oil to drink a glass o f wine, and something liot and comforting in the edible line. After which the thought o f her fiancee con soled her. Days passed on.

Bachelor Bunting did not drown himself nor sup cold poison.

The wedding was fixed.The housemaid informed her friend

that Mrs. Hunter “ kept steady com­pany.”

The maiden aunt, who had no in­come o f her own, curried favor by be­ing almost always in a state o f appar­ent coma.

The widow was in the seventh heav­en o f bliss, and all went merry as a marriage hell, until one evening, as the betrothed pair sat before the (ire in the polished grate, there came, a ring at. the h.•!!. and the girl who an­swered it soon looked into the parlor to announce the fact that a little girl in the hall would like to come in.'

“ Oh, let her in,” said Mrs. Hunter. “ 1 am so fond o f the dear children in the neighborhood. It’s one o f them, I presume.”

But, w hile she Was speaking, a small hut old looking girl, in a short frock, wish a tamborine in her hand, bounc­ed into the room, and throwing her­self into the professor’s arms, said with a strong French accent :

'•Darling papa, have I then found von? llow glad mamma will be! We thought you dead.”

“ I am not your papa!” said the Frenchman, turning' pale. “ Are you mad, my dear girl?’’

“No, no, n o ; you are my papa!” cried the child. “Do not deny your Estelle. Does she not know you? Ah, my heart, it tells me true. Dear mam­ma and I have almost starved, but she would never pledge her wedding ring, never. She plays the organ, I the tamborine. Wc have suffered j hut now papa will return to us. All, heaven!'’

“My gracious! the morals of fiirrin- ers; he’d have married missus!” cried tlie servant girl at the door.

“ She tells one black lie. Never be­fore have I scon her; believe me, ma­dam!'’ cried the poor Frenchman.

“ Oh! Alphonse!" cried the widow. But there, 1 will he (inn. My best

friends warned me of you. ’fake your hat—go! Never enter my presenceagain. Go with your unfortunate child—your poor, half starved little girl. Go home to your deserted wife —go!”

“Ah, madame, /.esc is falsehood!” cried tlie unfortunate Frenchman, los­ing liis temper in liis excitement. “Be­lief—”

“Out of my house!” cried the wid­ow. “Leggy, open the door. Go! Oh, what an escape I have had!”

Tlie professor departed. Mrs. Hun­ter threw herself into a chair and hurst into tears. After a while she grew more calm, and, taking a letter from a drawer, she perused it.

“ Ah. me! what deceivers these men are!” she said as she leaned pensively back on the cushions. "Only to think lie could wri;e a letter so full of hive, and prove such a viliiau; but 1 am warned in lime.”

And she tore tlie letter into frag­ments.

The maiden aunt, who had not heard a word, demanded an explanation. Biddy howled it through her ear trumpet in these words :

“ The scoundrel lias ever so many wives and families already, playin’ tambourines for their bread—the ras­cal!”

And in the midst the door bell rang and Mr. Bunting walked in with a po­lite bow, aud approached the widow.

Biddy and the aunt slipped out of the room.

“ [called to apologize,” said Bunt­ing'. “ I was hasty the oLher day. Had I known the gentleman was dear to you, 1 should have restrained my pccch. I wish you happiness; I—”

•■Don’ t, please,” cried the widow. “ He's worse than you painted him. I’ ve found him out. I hate him. As for me, 1 can never he happy again.”

"Not with your own Bunting?” cried the bachelor, sitting-down beside her.

“ I am afraid not.”“ Are you sure?”“ No. not quite,’ ’ drying her eyes.“ Then marry me, my dear, and try

it. Do, oli. do!”Sirs. Hunter sobbed and consented.

After having a white watered silk made up and trimmed up with real lace it was too had not to figure as a bride after all. She married Bachelor Bunting, and was very happy.

Itivas well, perhaps, That she had not the fairy gift o f the invisible cap, and did not follow Mr. Bunting to a mysterious recess in tlie rear o f the theater, whither lie took his way after parting from the widow on the night of his engagement. There lie met a little girCsmall, but old looking, the same, indeed, who had claimed the professor as her papa, and this is what lie said to lier :

“ Here is the money I promised you, my child, and you acted the thing ex­ceedingly well. I know that by the eticet you produced. She believes that lie’s a married man,and be can’ t prove to the contrary. I knew you’d be able to act it out when 1 saw you play the deserted child in the trage­dy.”

Then St00 was counted into the lit­tle brown hand, and Bachelor Bunting walked off’ triumphantly.

To this day liis wife does not know the truth, hut alludes to poor, inno­cent Professor La Fontaine as that wicked Frenchman.

Cigars-To the world in general a cigar is

merely a thickly-rolled packet having brittle fragments o f dry leaves within, aud a smooth, silky leaf for its outer wrapper. ’When it is burnt, and the pleasantly-flavored smoke is inhaled, tlie habitual smoker claims for it a soothing luxury that quiets the irrita­ble nervous organism, relieves weari­ness, and entices repose. Science, scouting so superficial a description, examines first the smoke, second the leaf, third the ash. In the smoke is discovered water in a vaporous state, soot (free carbon), carbonic acid, and carbonic oxide, and a vaporous sub­stance condensable into oily nicotine. These are the general divisions, which chemists have still further split up, and in so doing have found acetic, for­mic, buteric, valeric, and propionic acids, prussic acid, creosote, and care bolic acid, ammonia, sulphurated hy­drogen, pyridine, viridinc, picoliue lutidine, collidine, parvolinc, corodine and rubidenc. These last are a series o f oily bases belonging to tlm homo­logs of aniline, first discovered in coal- tar.

Applying chemical tests to the leaves, other chemists have found nico- tia, tobacco camphor, or nicotianiue (about which not much is known), a hitter extractive matter, gum chloro- phyl, malate o f lime, sundry albumi­noids, malic acid, woody fibre, and va­rious” salts. Tlie feathery white ash, which in its cohesion and whiteness is indicative o f the good cigar, yields potash, soda, magnesia, lime, phos­phoric acid, silica, and chlorine. The ingredients extractable from a poor aiid chcan cigar would he fearful and wonderfiil to contemplate! Here is a list front a Parliamentary report on adulteration in tobacco: Sugar, alum, lime, flour or meal, rhubarb leaves, saltpetre, fuller’s earth, starch, malt cortimings, chromate o f lead, peat moss, molasses, burdock leaves, common salt, endive leaves, lampblack, gum, red dye, a black dye composed of vegetable red and licorice, scraps of newspaper, cin­namon stick, cabbage leaves, and straw brown paper.— [London Caterer.

A t the sound o f a pistol shot in a fight at a hall, in Las Vegas, New Mexico, the janitor turned off the gaa believing that darkness would stop the row. Pistols continued to-go off without aim, hut so damagingly that oue man was killed by seven bullets, and many were les3 seriously hit.

A Pleasant .Remedy for Toothache.Baltimore Practitioner.

“ Our cook,” says T. C. Osborn, M. D., Greensboro, Ala., “ presented her­self to me with a swollen check, ask­ing for something to relieve the tooth­ache, from which she had been sufler- ing all niglil, and for which she re­fused to have the tooth extracted.— As there was nothing of the usual kind at hand, I was oil the point of telling her to call around later at my ollice, or go to a dentist, when it oc­curred to my mind that there was in tlie house a ‘compound tincture of ben­zoin,’ which I had been using upon a young mother as a protection against sore nipples.

“ Alter cleansing the decayed tooth, I saturated a pledget of cotton lint with the tincture and packed it well into the cavity.hoping- this would suf­fice for the time, and bidding her come hack in two or three hours if she was not relieved. I was turning away, when she remarked that it might not he necessary, perhaps, as the pain was already gone. Supposing her faith had a large share in the relief, I would not allow myself to think that th- medicine had anything to do with (lie cure any more than so much hot water would have doue.

"But when I arrived at my office there were two other patients await­ing me with tlie same affliction, and I determined by way o f experiment, to use the same remedy. To my agreea­ble surprise both ’ patients declared themselves immediately relieved, and begged a vial of the tincture for fur­ther use.

“ During the winter a number of similar cases applied, and were ins tan t- lv relieved by the same treatment, all expressing much satisfaction with the remedy.

“ In December I told my druggist of the discovery, and recommended him to sell it to any person applying for 'toothache drops.’ This lie reports, lie has done, and every one seems delight­ed with the medicine.”

Literature in tlie Home.Among the many excellent sugges­

tions made hv Mrs. Julia McNair Wright, in her valuable hook entitled "Tlie Complete Home,” we find the following suggestive account o f a visit to a farm home :

“ I was at Cousin’s Ann’s son’s farm one dai", and Heed was walking- about with me showing liis territories; and, indeed they were so well kept that they were a treat to see. The cattle looked like prize cattle. He had names for them all, and one handsome young heifer lie called ‘Books,’ and a big sheep ‘Mag.v which he informed me was ‘short for magazine,’ and a family of black Spanish hens ran to the call of ‘Papers.’

“ I asked him what in the world it all meant. He fold me that when, ho married, liis mother gave him a pair o f black Spanish fowls, and told him to let them keep hint in newspapers, lie accordingly sailed them ‘Papers’ for fun, and kc found that their eggs and chickens would keep liim hand­somely supplied with good newspa­pers. When the supply exceeded the demand he would lay tlie surplus by to begin a fund for providing liis chil­dren with reading, liis wife had sug­gested that the heifer should he dedi­cated to the cause of a library : and so lie, after suhstracting the cost of the animals keep, meant to use her produce in buying hooks. The sheep had been a pet lamb, green to liis wife by her sister, and she having paid her hoard, secured for them their maga­zines.

"The, iruth is wc were brought up on hooks, and wc could not live with­out them. I expect to make a decent fortune here, hut I received all my first notions o f the value and care of stock from hooks and papers. I noticed all that I found on that theme; it inter­ested m e; I carried out many o f the suggestions, and I found them valu­able.”

Cultivation and Absorption of Water.It seems from correspondence from

East India the agriculturists there are noticing the effect of water absorption by deeply cultivated land, and its con­sequent ability to maintain vegetation, while shallow worked soil became parched and barren. Thus, in India as here, the question o f substituting cultivation for irrigation is engaging the attention o f the people. *A writer in the London Agricultural Gazette maintains tlie affirmative of the prop­osition. It seems a cyclone visited the Madras country in May, and in a short time about four and one-half inches of rain fell. The observer writes : “ I have rarely seen so marked a result o f the after effects of the rough cultivation as this storm afforded. A l­though in most places tlie land here­abouts was broken up about a month or six weeks ago, after some unusual showers which fell then, the river which flows past my house rose rapid- ily, showing that evidently a very considerable portion o f tlie rain which fell over tlie country in general ran off tlie surface. On some land which has been under, comparatively speaking, deep cultivation for several years, tlie surface drains scarcely showed that there liad been any flow o f water in most places. The significance of this fact can he well understood; for, if we can, by the simple process of deep­ening our arable soils, retain in them a great proportion of the rain which falls on them, wc shall, o f course, he better able to withstand drouths, by making use o f tlie rains which do fall, and which fall so frequently in heavy falls at widely distant periods.

A Rothschild Autograph.A sale o f autographs at Frankfort-

on-the-Mam recently brought to light a letter from A. M. Rothschild, the celebrated founder o f the house o f the same name. The letter is addressed to a Hessian minister and dated 1804.— Tlie chirograph}- has nothing remark­able in it, hut tlie sentiments expressed by tlie good hanker are worth quoting. They are as follows, fully explaining themselves: “ So his grand-ducal-high ness is not preparing for tlie pay­ment? It seems that he believes that a Prince does not require to he exact in paving u p ; i f that were so, I con­fess that, although I am well satisfied in my humble position, 1 should like to he” prince for one single day—the settlement day o f the third week of tlie fair—(the banker alludes either to the Leipzig or Frankfort fair of his time)—in order not to he obliged to pay. But that is not the way that things are arranged. I have to make my payments exactly, even if it costs me everything that 1 possess in tlie world. I hope, therefore, that a prince will he ordered to do t he same. I f a prince enjoyed such immense privi­leges no one would he able to exist.— I assure you that the money preserves my honor, and my honor is my life.— He wlio does not pay me hack my money takes away my honor.” His­tory doubtless records the fact that the prince paid np after this admoni­tion. But the autograph is dumb on the subject.

A Coin in His Crop.An incident, says Chamber’s Jour­

nal, will ho in general recollection connected with the late Mr. Brunei, the eminent engineer, who planned the Thames Tunnel and the Great West­ern railway. One day while divert­ing a child with tricks o f sleight-of- liand, by causing a half-sovereign to mysteriously disappear and reappear, a stunning disaster occurred. Tlie trick consisted in adroitly concealing (lie coin in his mouth, anil pretending to bring it out at his ear. A ll at once, before lie was aware, and to liis dis­may, the half-sovereign slipped down into his gullet, lie tried to cough it up without cilcct. There it stuck. Every surgical device was tried to get hold of it without avail. It became evident that i f the coin could not he dislodged, fatal results would, ensue. In the dire dilemma into which he had needlessly brought himself, Brun­ei’s presence of mind did not desert, him. _He devised a wooden structure to Avliich lie could be strapped head doAViiAvard, in tlie hope that the half- sovereign Avonld fall ou t o f his throat by the force o f gravity. He Avas fixed to the machine head dOAvnmost, keep­ing his mouth open. To liis inexpres­sible relief, the coin dropped from its lurking-place and rolled to the floor.

On one occasion a sAvord-swalloAvei got into a fix even more dreadful than that of Brunei. He professed to he able to perform a trick Avitii a bayonet fixed on the end o f a musket. It Avas an aAvfully hazardous prank, far be­yond that of SAvallowing a sword. He held the musket aloft Avitii the butt- eiul uppermost, and opening liis mouth allowed the bayonet to go doAvn his throat. IL m n g g o tit this length, he clenched the part o f tlie bayonet next the handle AArith his teeth, and holding the musket Avitii his hands, to prevent it from SAVinging to one side or oilier, Avalkcd about Avilli it in this perilous attitude on tlie stage.

A t a performance one day o f tlie bayonet and musket trick, something Avas seen to go Avrong. There Avas a stagger, a flutter. The observers Avere surprised, horror-struck. The SAvay- ing o f the upraised musket had caused it to snaqi off at tlie part o f tlie bay­onet Avliero it Avas sustained b y the teeth o f the performer, the result be­ing that the shaft o f the bayonet Avas left sunk out o f sight or reach in his throat Anything more appalling than this can hardly he imagined. Perhaps in the agony o f tlie moment the per­former recollected tlie device resorted to by Brunei in similar circumstances. A t all events, lie instantly threw him ­self on liis hands, and, w ith the aid o f liis assistants, stood Avitliiiis feet upper­most against the Avail. The effort was successful. B y its oavh weight the bayonet descended from its place in the throat, and at length it was pulled from tlie mouth.

Advice to a Theatrical Aspirant.A letter from Clinton, Ivy., signed

Brutus Booth ITaAvkins, asked tlie De­troit L im e-K iln Club as a body Avhelher it Avonld advise a fairly-edu­cated, aA'erage-looldng young colored man to take the stage for a profession. He could, lie stated, take tlie part o f old man, young man, doctor o f divin­ity or butcher-boy, and his imitations o f a parrot or a hfne-jay were sim ply immense.

Discovery of Silk aud Cotton.The discovery o f silk is attributed

to one of the Avivcs of tlie Emperor of China, Hoang-ti, wlio reigned about two thousand years before the Chris­tian era; and since that time a special spot has always been allotted in the gardens of tlie Chinese royal palace to the cultiA-ation of the mulberry tree— called in Chinese Hie “golden tree” — and to tlie keeping of 'iilk-AVorms.— The first silk dress mentioned in his­tory Avas made, not for a sovereign nor for a pretty woman, hut for tlie mon­ster in human shape, Heliogabalus.

Persian monks avIio came to Con­stantinople revealed to the Emperor Justinian tlie secret of the production of silk, and gave him some silk-worms. From Greece the art passed into Italy at tlie end o f the thirteenth century.— "When the Popes left Rome to settle at Avinton, France, they introduced into that country tlie secret which had been kept hv tlie Italians; aud Louis X I. established at Tours a manufactory o f silk fabrics. Francis I. founded the Lyons silk-works, Avliick, to this day have kept the first rank. Henry n . o f France wore tlie first pair of silk hose erer made, at the wedding of hi3 sis ter.

Tlie Avord “ satin,” which in the orig­inal Avas applied to all silk stuffs in general, has, since the last century, been- used to designate only tissues which present a lustred surface. The discovery o f this particular brilliant stuff;' was accidental. Octavio Mai, a silk-weaver, finding business very dull, and not knowing Avliat to invent to give a neAV impulse to the trade, was one day pacing to and fro before liis loom. Every time he passed the ma chine, Avitii no definite object in vieiv* he pulled little threads from the warp and put them to his mouth, which soon after lie spat out. Later on, he found tlie little ball o f silk on tlie floor of his workshop, and was attracted by the brilliant appearance of the threads. Ho repeated the experiment, and by using certain mucilaginous prepara­tions, succeeded in giving ugav lustre to his tissues.

Oiving to the disease o f the vine, the area of the vineyards in France has de­creased by about 4,000 acres since the year 1S74; though a great portion of the soil in which tlie vino formerly flourished is unfit for any other cul­ture. The area o f vineyards in the country is atpresentaboutfiveniHlion acres.

A Smoke-as-Yott-PIease-Match.

The following story o f a pipe con­test is told on the authority o f the Re- liqnae Herman®:

“ 1723, Sept. 5.—Yesterday, at two o’clock in the afternoon, was a smoak- ing match over against the theatre in Oxford, a scaffold being built up for it, just at Finmore’s, an ale-house.— The conditions being that any one (man or woman) that could smoake out three ounces o f tobacco first, with­out drinking or going off the stage, should have 12 shillings.

“ Many tried and it was thought that’ a journeyman tailor o f St. Peters In tlie East w ould have been the victor, lie smoaking faster than, and being more pipes than the rest; but at last he was so sick that ’ twas thought he Avonld have died; and an old man that had been a soldier, and smoaked gent­ly came off conqueror, sinoaking the three ounces quite out, and he told one —from whom I had it —that, after it, he smoaked four or five pipes the same evening.” ’

The chronicler, like many others o f his time, was a great believer in the virtues o f the narcotic weed, and he loses no opportunity to tell us o f its merits. Under the date o f Jan. 21, 1720-21, he says: “ I have been told that in tlie great plague at London (i. e. 1CC5) none that kept tobacconists’ shops liad tlie plague. I t is certain that smoaking Avas looked upon as a most excellent preservative. Inso­much that children were obliged to smoak. A nd I remember that 1 heard formerly Tom Rogers, w ho Avas a yeo­man beadle, say that when he Avas that year, avIicii tlie plague raged, a school­boy at Eton, all the hoys at that school were obliged to smoak in the school every morning, and that he was never w hipped so much in his life as lie Avas one morning for not smoak- iug.”

Tobacco pouches, boxes, and stop­pers form a branch o f the parapher­nalia o f a smoker that liaAre a curious interest, and one o f the directions in the early hooks o f etiquette Avas :— “ Gentlemen liung the tobacco hag on t he arm as ladies do tlicir reticule.” — Expensive tobacco boxes Avere part of the outfit o f Elizabethan dandies, and the old plays and pamphlets o f those days contain frequent satirical allu­sions to them.

These boxes A v e re often cunningly engraved Avitii quaint pictures, and AA’ere capacious enough to carry all a smoker required besides tobacco and pipes, tinder, flint, steel aud stopper. In some o f the oldEngiisli ale-houses a public b ox was kept o f ingenious con­struction. A penny dropped in at the proper opening drcAV hack a holt and allo wed a drawer to open, from w hich the smoker could fill his p ip e ; hut none could open it till he had de­posited his penny. Beyond that his honor was trusted to take only one pipeful.

Tiiseet Stings.The pain caused by tlie sting o f a

plant or insect is the result o f a certain amount o f acid poison injected into the blood. Tlie first tiling to be done is to press the tube o f a small key from side to side, to tiicilitate the expulsion o f the sting audits accompanying p o i­son. The sting, i f ieft in the wound, should he carefully extracted; other- Avisc it Avill greatly increase the local irritation. The poison o f stings being acid, common sense points to tlie alka­lies as the proper means o f cure. Among Hie most easily procured reme­dies may he mentioned soft soap, liq­uor o f ammonia (spirits o f hartshorn), smelling salts, Avnsliing soda, quick­lime made into a paste Avith Avater, the juice o f an onion, tobacco ju ice, chew­ed tobacco, bruised dock leaves, toma­to juice, AA’ood ashes, tobacco ashes, and carbonate o f soda. I f tlie sting he severe, rest and coolness should he added to the other remedies, more es­pecially in the case of nervous subjects. Nothing is so apt to make the poison actiArc as heat, and nothing favors its aeUA’ity less than cold. L et the body, ho kept cooL and at rest, and the activ­ity o f tlie poison w ill he reduced to a minimum. A n y actiAre exertion Avliere- by the circulation is quickened w ill increase both pain and SAVelling. I f the snuffling he severe,the part may he rubbed Avilli sweet oil o r a drop or two o f laudanum.. Stings in the eye, ear, mouth or throat sometimes lead to serious consequences. In such cases medical advice should always he sought as soon as possible.

Wonderful Presence of Hind.Clarence Connelly is a plucky man,

and it is to his grit and coolness that lie OAves liis life. A few days ago, w hile working in the Allegheny shaft, ou east Fryer hill, he prepared a blast and lighted the fuse, and jum ping into the bucket gave the signal to hoist away. The shaft is tivo hundred and forty feet deep, and when about forty feet Avere gained the toggling gave way and the bucket started hack for the bottom o f tlie shaft. Connelly fe lt it giving way, aud managed to catch hold o f tlie loop at the end o f the rope. A s soon as lie found that he had a hold he began to yell to the men above. They, thinking lie was in a hurry to get out o f reach o f tlie blast, put on extra steam and jerked liim a hundred feet in a tAvinkling. W hen about fifty feet from the surface Goimclly felt that his strength Avas givnig Avay. He kncAV that he could not hold out until the top Avas reached, and made up his mind to risk a hold stroke fo r life. Throwing' liimself across the shaft, lie let go the rope, and w ith wonderful dexterity and good luck lie managed to lodge Avitii liis hack against one side and teefc against the other. Thus braced he managed to remain until the rope, w hich liad reached tlie mouth o f the shaft empty, aaaas sent down to him, and he AAras rescued from his per­ilous position.—[Leadville Democrat.

Plants Irrigating Themselves.I t lias been sliOAvn b y tlie experi­

ments o f tlie late Prof. Hahbcrlandt, that plants sometimes irrigate ou tlieir own account and thus draw nutri­ment from dry soils. H e undertook a series o f experiments on the phenom­ena o f vegetation o f plants grown in an absolutely dry soil. F or this purpose he allowed the loAver portion o f the roots o f the plants experiment­ed oil to dip doAvn into distilled wa­ter, while the upper portion was re­tained in a soil so dry that the plants w ould otherivise, as was practically demonstrated, inevitably he withered up. The results o f these trials Avent to show that tlie portions o f the roots ly­ing in tlie upper dry stratum o f soil rich in nutritive constituents o f plant life does not remain inactive, as lias been generally maintained, hut is chief­ly occupied in supplying the plant Avith the constituents o f its ash. A s there is no absolute want o f water, this being supplied by the low er por­tion o f tlie root, the upper portion is able to secrete a certain quantity o f moisture which is taken up by the im ­mediately surrounding soil, aud dis­solves its earthy constituents, w hich are then taken up directly b y simple endosmosis.

The Healthiest City in the United States.

In tlie annual tables o f vital statis­tics, lately published by the Health Department of New York city, among tlie exhibits is the comparative death rale of various cities, America and for­eign. The exhibit gives the popula­tion and death rate o f over, three hun­dred and fifty cities in different parts o f the world, in which sixty are American and the remainder foreign.

It appears from these tables that the city of Burlington, Iowa, with a popu­lation in 1S75 o f about 20,000, enjoys the pre-eminence for health, its an­imal death rate being only 4.84 deaths per 1,000 souls, Stockton, Cal., stands next, 7.47; hue this is 62 per cent more unhealthy than Burlington. There are probably a few, hut only a few, more, favored places than the hitter in all the world. The death rate for New York city is 23.93 per1,000 ; New Orleans, 50.71; London, 23,40 ; Paris, 24.71.

Immediately after the announcement and the consequent excitement had subsided, the Convention proceeded to ballot for Yic-e President resulting in the nomination o f Gen. Chester A. Arthur o f New York, on the first bal­lot.

The nomination o f Gen. James A. Garfield, o f Ohio, is one that gives universal satisfaction among Republi­cans in all parts o f the country as one against whom not a complaint can be made, and whose career as a public man has been without a stain and ever active. His nomination lias the pecu­liarity o f being one m which the office seeks the man. and contrary to the de­terminedly expressed wish of the can­didate. instead o f one in which the man seeks the ofiice and applies every possible means to secure it.

No objection can be made to the nomination o f Gen. Arthur for the second place on the ticket. He is an able man. of unblemished character and unsullied reputation, and will add great strength to the ticket in the East where he is best known.

The only ones who have any objec­tions to the nominations are the Dem­ocrats, who are as "morally certain of defeat as they are o f their existence.

The platform o f principles cannot well l>e found fault with by any Repub­lican, and is worthy o f consideration bv any sane man. It is as follows:

PLATFORM.The Republican party, in National

Convention assembled, at the end o f twenty years since the Federal Gov­ernment was first committed to its charge, submits to the people of the United States this brief report o f its administration :

It suppressed a rebellion which had armed nearly a million o f men to sub­vert the National authority. It recon­structed. the Union o f States with free­dom instead of slavery as its corner­stone. It transformed 4.000,000 human beings from the likeness o f things to the rank o f citizens. It relieved Con­gress from the infamous work o f hunt­ing fugitive slaves, and charged it to see that slavery does not exist: it has raised the value o f our paper currency from 3$ per cent, to the par o f gold. It has restored, upon a solid basis, pay­ment in coin o f all National obliga­tions, and has given us a currency ab­solutely good and equal in every part o f our extended country. It has lift­ed the credit o f the Nation from the point where 0 per cent, bonds sold at SO. to that where 4 per cent, bonds are eagerly sought at a premium.

Under its administration railways have increased from 31,000 miles in 1SR0 to more than S2.000 miles in 1S79. 0 foreign trade has increased from 8700,000,000 to 81,130,000,000 in the same time, and our exports, which were 820,000,000 less than our imports in 1S60, were 8264,000,000 more than our imports in 1879. 'Without resort­ing to loans. It has, since the War closed, defrayed the ordinary expenses o f Government besides the aeruing in­terest to the public debt, and has dis­bursed anuually more than 830,000,000 for soldiers’ and sailors' pensions. It has paid 8SS0,000,000 o f the public debt, and, by refunding the balance at lower rates, has reduced the annual in­terest charge from nearly 8130,000,000 to less than 889,000,000. A ll the in­dustries o f the country have revived, labor Is in demand, wages have in­creased. and throughout the entire country there is evidence o f a coming prosperity greater than we have ever enjoyed.

Upon this record the Republican party asks for the continued confidence and support o f the people, and this Convention submits for their approv­al the following statement o f the prin­ciples and purposes which will contin­ue to guide and inspire its efforts:

Fir it—W e affirm that the work of the Republican party for the last twenty years has been such as to com­mend It to the favor o f the Nation; that the fruits o f the costly victories which we have achieved through im­mense difficulties should he preserved; that the peace regained should he cherished; that the Union should be perpetuated, and that the liberties se­cured to this generation should he transmitted undiminished to future generations; that the order established and the credit acquired should never be impaired; that the pensions promis­ed should be paid; that the debt so much reduced shovdd be extinguished

-by the full payment o f every dollar thereof; that the reviving industries should be further promoted, and that

commerce already so great should he steadily encouraged.

Second — The constitution o f the United States is a supreme law and not a;mere contact, Out o f confeder­ated States it made a sovereign Nation. Some powers are denied to the Nation, while others are denied to the States, hut the boundary between the powers delegated and these reserved is to he determined by the National and not by the State tribunals.

Third—Tire work o f popular educa­tion is one left to the care o f the sev­eral States, but it is the duty of the National Government to aid that work to the extent o f its constitutional abil­ity. The intelligence o f the Nation is but the aggregate o f the intelligence in the several States, and that the destiny o f the Nation must be guided not by the genius o f anyone State, but by the average genius o f all.

Fourth- — The Constitution wisely forbids Congress to make any law re­specting the establishment o f religion, hut it is idle to hope that the Nation can be protected against the influence o f sectarianism, while eaeh State is exposed to its domination. AVe, there­fore, recommended that the Constitu­tion he so amended as to lay the same prohibition upon the Legislature of each State, and to forbid the appropri­ation o f public funds to the support of sectarian schools.

Fifth—AVe reaffirm the belief avow­ed in 1876 that the duties levied for the purpose o f revenue should so dis­criminate as to favor American labor; that no further grants o f the public do­main should he made to any railway or other corporation: that slavery hav­ing perished in the States its twin bar­barity, polygamy, must die in Territo­ries: that everywhere the protection accorded to a citizen o f American birth must he secured to citizens by American adoption. That we deem it the duty o f Congress to develop and improve our water-courses and har­bors, but insist that further subsidies to private persons or corporations must cease: that the obligations o f the Republic to the men who preserved its Integrity In the hour of battle are uiidmiinlshed by the lapse o f fifteen years since their final victory. To do them honor is and shall forever he the grateful privilege and sacred duty of the American people.

Sixth—Since the authority to regu­late Immigration and intercourse be­tween the United States and foreign nations rests with the Congress of the United States and the treaty-making power, the Republican party, regard­ing the unrestricted Immigration of Chinese as a matter o f grave concern­ment under the exercise o f both these powers, would limit and restrict that immigration by the enactment of such just, humane, mid reasonable laws and ■ treaties as will produce that result.

Seventh—That the purity and patri­otism which characterized the earlier career o f Rutherford R. Hayes in peace and war, and which guided the thoughts o f our immediate predecessors to him for a Presidential candidate, have continued to Inspire Mm in Ms career as Chief Executive: andthat history will accord to Ms Admin­istration the honors which are due to an efiicient, just, and courteous dis­charge ot the public business, and will honor his votes interposed between the people and attempted partisian laws.

Eighth—We charge upon the Demo­cratic party the habitual sacrifice of pairotism and justice to a supreme and insatiable lust for office and pat­ronage: that to obtain possession of the National and State Governments and the control o f place and position, they have obstructed all efforts to pro­mote the purity and to conserve the freedom of suffrage, and have devised fraudulent ballots and invented fraud­ulent certification of returns: have labored to unseat lawfully elected members of Congress to secure to all hazards the vote o f a majority o f States in the House o f Representatives; have endeavored to occupy by force and fraud the places o f trust given to oth­ers by the people o f Maine, rescued by the eourage in action of Maine's patri­otic sons; have, by methods vicious in principle and tyrannical in practice, attached partisian legislation to appro­priation bills upon whose passage the verv movement o f the Government de­pended: have crushed the rights of the individual; have advocated the prin­ciples and sought the favor o f the Re­bellion against the Nation, and have endeavored to obliterate the sacred memories of the war and to overcome its inestimably valuable results o f Na­tionality, personal freedom, and indi­vidual equality.

The equal, and steady, and complete enforcement o f the laws, and the pro­tection o f our citizens In the enjoy­ment o f all privileges and immunity guaranteed by the Constitution, are the first duties o f the Nation.

The dangers of a "Solid South" can only be averted by a faithful perform­ance of every promise which the Na­tion has made to the citizens. The exe­cution o f the laws,and thepuuishment o f Ml those who violate them, are the only safe methods by which an endur­ing peace can be secured and genuine prosperity established throughout the South. AA'haiever promises the Nation makes the Nation must perform. A Aatlon cannot with safety relegate tMs duty to the States. The "Solid South" must be divided by the peace­ful agencies o f the ballot, and all hon­est opinions must there find free ex­pression. To ibis end the honest voter must be protected against terrorism, violence, or fraud.

And we affirm It to be the duty and the purpose o f the Republican party to use all legitimate means to restore all the States o f this Union to the most perfect harmony which may be possi­ble. and we submit to the practical, sensible people o f these United States to say whether it would not he dan­gerous to the dearest interests o f our country at this time to surrender the administration of the National Gov­ernment to a party which seeks to overthrow the exisilng policy under which we are so prosperous, and thus bring distrust mid confusion where there Is now order, confidence, and hope.

The Republican party, adhering to the principle affirmed by its last Na­tional Convention, o f respect for the constitutional rules covering appoint­ments to office, adopt the declaration of President Hayes, that the Teforrn of the civil service should he thorough, radical and complete. To this end it demands the co-operation of the legis­lative with the Executive department o f the Government, and that Congress should so legislate that fitness, ascer- tMned by proper practical tests, slmll admit to the public service. That the tenure o f administrative offices, ex­cept those through which the distinc­tive policy o f the party in power is carried out, shall he made permanent during good behavior, and that the power of removal for cause, with due responsibility for the good conduct of subordinates shMl accompany the pow­er o f appointment

BrciiAXAN, June 8,1880.M r . E d itor :—Yon said in 1 ast week's

R ecord that "a vide across the country to the south-east from this place leads one to the decision that to beat the present prospect for an enormous wheat crop is hardly expected.” Now, Mr. Editor, I can take you into fields of wheat along that line that to the passer-by look all right, and one month ago bid fair to yield an average of twenty bushels at least per acre, which now give evidence that not more than five will he realized. The late lieavy winds have revealed to us and many others the sad work of the Hessian fly. Their work is found In many fields. Those farmers who are disposing of their wheat at 81 per bushel had better drive a little slow and not place too much confidence in the coming harvest.

L. S. B ronson.

Yes. AVell, that reminds the R ecord that four years ago last August it pub­lished a warning to farmers against sowing their wheat too early, so as to avoid the depredations of the Ilessian fly. Three years ago the R ecord pub­lished the same tiling again. Two years ago It was repeated, and several farmers came to us and said they knew better. They had sown part of their wheat very early, and part of it very late, and they could see no difference. It was all badly eaten where the two were side by side, so next year sowed just as much o f their wheat in August as they could, and now they reap the benefit of it. It must not he forgotten that the R ecord re-echoed the warning last year. Nineteen twentieths of the wheat on Portage prairie and in the vicinity mentioned above, was sown before the- first of September. Now, the R ecord wishes to remark onc-e more that if no farmer in that vicinity will sow one kernel o f wheat earlier than the 16th or 20th of September, and will continue that practice, in three years’ time there will be no sign of the Hessian fly in the wheat, hut for one to do so while all o f his neighbors sow as soon as harvest is over will he of no appreciable benefit.

AA'hy should not everyone live out their full allotted time, enjoy good health and be happy V Surely there .is no qood reason, and yet many will al­low impure blood, weakness of the kidneys, imperfect digestion, and urin­ary troubles to undermine and break down their general health, and carry them to a premature grave. Some seek relief among mineral poisons, in pill form, etc., others resort to exten­sively advertised alcoholic beverages and fermented liquors, only to feel themselves for a time somewhat bet­ter, but after a while much worse. Now, why should this be so? It is well-known by the intelligent portion o f our community that Dr. Guysott’s Y’ ellow Dock and Sarsaparilla will surely remove all these disorders. This medicine is the wonderful discov­ery of an eminent French physician, and has proven itself in a thousand of instances to be the best vegetable pu­rifier known to medical men. It never fails to effectually cure Scrofula, Sy­philitic disorders, weakness o f the kid­neys, all nervous disorders and debili­ty, and all urinary and digestive, trou­bles. It makes the old feel full of youthful vigor, and young energetic and gay, restoring perfect manhood and women, especially when the dis­ease lias a tendency to weaken the mind, body and nervous system. Do not dispair. A single bottle will eon- convince of its great merit as a health renewer for it begins at once to give new life and vigor to both body and mind, never failing to remove all symptoms of any and every disease that can be cured by cleansing, reno­vating, purifying and strengthening the human system, driving out, as if by magic, the many ills that flesh and blood is heir to, and building up new health, new vigor and new life.

T h e annual picnic o f tlie Pioneers’ Association o f Berrien comity, was held at Berrien Springs yesterday.

W e have two receipts for tlie treat­ment of those current worms. Mr. John Buckles says to mulch the bush­es well with the cleanings from tlie hen-house, and we will not be troubled with worms.

Sold. — The business building on Front street for several years occupied hy G. H. Rea, and belonging to the estate o f Joseph Binns, was sold Sat­urday forenoon at administrator’s auc­tion sale, and was hid in hy W. A . Palmer, at $1,041. Owing to a dissat­isfaction the sale was not confirmed, and the property is again advertised in the R ecord for sale.

Corrections. — In the correspond­ence in last week’s R ecord ,_ signed “ Fax,” the last few Rues 3x111011 read, “received $1*13 for the lowest and to nearly $300 for the highest,” should have read “$1.-23 for tlie lowest to $3 for the highest,” having reference to the day’s wages of the teachers, and in the 10th line, “ announced meet­ing” should have read “annual meet­ing.” These errors are partly owing to the compositor not being able to translate the chirography of the writer, and partly7 in the proof reader not be­ing acquainted with the intention of the writer.

A small. lively yellow bug, called tbe rose bug, is making rather sad havoc on Rev. J. F. Bartmess’ place, just west o f town. The little pest at­tacks nearly every green thing and es­pecially those that are of value, eating the peaches and apples on tlie trees, small grapes, rose blossoms, and tlie wheat, eating the kernels out of the head and leaving it worthless. A head was brought to this oiliee with a dozen or more of the bugs clinging to it. Mr. Bartmess says he has been bothered with these bugs for several years, they making tlieir appearance at about this time o f year and lasting about two weeks, but never have* they7 been quite so ravenous as tins year, l ie says be would like to know just bow to get rid of them. They grow fat on Paris green, and tlie only thing that he has found that materially af­fects their happiness is kerosene oil, but that also kills the plant.

Berrien C ounty R ecord : Buchanan. Michigan, June 10, 1880,H u ngarian Grass.

A correspondent o f the Boston Cul­tivator gives a number o f facts drawn from his experience in cultivating and feeding Hungarian grass, which will be o f" interest to our readers. We quote as fo llow s:

It would be impossible for me to keep the stock I do upon a farm so limited in area as my own, i f I did not sow considerable Hungarian, most o f which I make into hay, feeding little o f it green. Hungarian has been charged" with almost everything- o f which mind could conceive. One charge is that it is a great exhauster of the soil, and so it Is, for it hears a very heavy crop, and no tanner should expect to" store a heavy crop in his barn and have the material that produ­ces the crop still left in the soil. Hun­garian is no greater exhauster o f the soil than any other plant that produ­ces so great a yield. It has also been said that i f over-ripe the seed might produce abortion in cows. I have fed Hungarian when over-ripe, but it never produced abortion in my herd, for I never had a cow in my barn which had such a misfortune. I have, however, had the misfortune to cut my Hungarian in an over-ripe condition; the result o f which was a shrinkage o f milk. The same would be the result should any other fodder crop be allow­ed to stand till It was over-ripe. In my own practice I generally follow clover with Hungarian for my first crop. I have now' about two acres ot land from which I took last year three crops o f clover—one June 50th, anoth­er August 1st, and a third I fed green in October and November. After the 1st o f Hay. or perhaps not till the middle o f that month. I shall plow this, spreading the manure broadcast and harrowing in. while from the 20tli o f Hay to the" 1st o f June, I shall sow about a bushel and a quarter o f Hun­garian seed.

In putting irr the Hungarian seed I think it better to be a few days late than too early. I f sown too early the seed is slow in germinating, even i f it germinates at all. When it is slow in coming up the w eed s are too apt to get a startT which at first almost overshad­ows it ; but i f plowing is deferred they w ill make some start, which plowing will afterwards destroy. I f the land lies a week or ten days after plowing, it gives the weeds another opportunity to start, for destroying which the har­row may he used. The land also gets warmer, which w ill give the seed a quick start, and it w ill then push ahead o f weeds, giving the satisfaction o f clean culture: Seed sown by the 1st o f June w ill he ready to cut on or before the 1st o f August. It should he cut without fail as soon as headed out good. and. i f the sowing is delayed till the ground is pretty warm, it w ill be likely to head nearer together than i f sown a little too early, when the ground is colder.

"Worth K now in g.It frequently happens, especially in

the winter, says the American Farm Journal, that a horse receives a severe sprain.and it is not always convenient to call in a veterinary surgeon. A t such a time a certain cure that is pos­sible for every one to possess, is worth something surely. Bathe the limb in strong salt and water as hot as the liamlcau bear: then bandage and let it d ry : don't wet the bandage. Wbcn dry rub very thoroughly with the fol­lowing liniment:

One"ounce powdered camphor gum. two ounces laudanum, one ounce oil organum. one ounce ammonia, one ounce oil o f hemlock, all dissolved in one pint o f alcohol. Shake before ttslng. Give the animal perfect rest if possible. After two or three days, or when the swelling and heat are gone, the hot fomentations and bandage may be discontinued, but continue to use the liniment, even after the horse ap­pears well, for a joint or chord that has been sprained is very liable to be again. I f the ease is air ob-tinate one you must be the more persevering. A regular horse doctor would charge So for the very same treatment. Apply the liniment as often as twice a day.— It is as good for human sprains and bruises as for animal Ills.

This recipe like many others, is lacking m one important essential, owing"to carelessness o f the writer.— X o mention Is made o f applying hot fomentation after rubbing with the liniment. W e w ill supply the omis­sion. As soon as rubbing In o f the liniment Is completed apply again the hot salt water and hind tip. and continue this treatment till the in- fiaiumation is reduced.

T he A m erican v s . th e E n glish Dairy.W e have on previous occasions, says

the London Live-Stock Journal. point­ed out that we in England were losing ground in the race, and that America was gaining it, and that the difference was owing to the improved methods and appliances in general use in the latter country. The disparity Is only less marked because the soil, the herb­age. and the climate in this country are each and all better than those in America for ehee-e-making purposes. It Is purely a question, then, o f practi­cal ability, superior management, and we say so advisedly. Ten or a dozen years ago the quality o f American cheese sent to this country was snch as to cause our own cheese-makers to smile: but now the smile is on the other side o f the face. A t that time no one thought for a moment that we had anything to tear from the quality, whatever we had to do from the vol­ume. o f American competition in cheese; hut now we are beaten all

• along the line. And this is not so much because the quality o f English cheese on the average Is lower than it used to he, as that the quality o f Amer­ican is so greatly improved. Careful inquiry Into scientific principles an.t scrupulous attention to details o f man­agement are the means by which our American Mends have so much bet­tered their dairy products. Increased knowledge, quickened energies, and in­cessant activity in adopting every im­provement in appliances and modes of management, w ill alone enable us to compete successfully.

A K ace w ith Thum bs on T h eir Feet,Hr. Tremlett, the British Consul at

Saigon, in his report, mentions as a re­markable peculiarity o f ike natives o f the country that they have the great toe o f each foot separated from the others, like the thumb of the hand, and It can he used. In much the same manner, though not to the same extent. This distinctive mark o f an Annamite is not, however, usually seen in the vi­cinity o f Saigon, hat is now confined to the inhabitants o f the more north­ern section o f the empire, where the race has remained more distinct. This peculiarity is the meaning o f the na­tive name o f the Annamite race: and that the name and peculiarity are o f great antiquity is shown by the men­tion In Chinese annals 2300 B . C. as that (or those) o f one o f the “ four bar­barian” tribes that then formed the boundaries o f the Chinese Empire.

It may bejeonsidereft a good tiling to he a member o f the Theatre Fran­cais. Recent statistics show that the share o f H . G ot in the profits o f last year amounted to 70,000 francs; that o f H . Coquelin, to 69,000 fraucs; that o f H . Delauney, to 6S,000 francs; while MH- Febvre, Thiren, Worms, and Haubant drew 60,000 francs each. Mile. Sarah Bernhardt heads the ladies with 62,000 francs; Hme.HadeleneBrohan, Hme. Favart, and Mile. Jonassin come next w ith 60,000 francs, and Mile. Croizette with 55,000 francs. A ll this is quite independen t o f what is gained during holiday time and by private representations- B y way o f compari­son itm ay be mentioned that Rachel, whew she was first engaged at the Theatre Francais. received 4,000 francs a year, and when in 1810 she sent in an ultimatum demanding27,000 francs fixed, a benefit, and’two months leave, these terms, though accepted, were considered exorbitant.

Domestic.Sponge Cake with Water. — Three

cups sugar, four cups flour, one cup cold water, six eggs, one teaspoon till soda, two teaspoonfuls cream tartar; flavor with rose and orange water combined. Beat the eggs light; add sugar, and beat again four or five min­utes ; then add two cups ot flour, beat well, and hake in a moderately hoi oven.

Pretty Table Cover.—A small tall'le cover o f unique design is made of black satin. On this arc sewed Ihroc or five parallel strips o f maroon, dark blue or black -velvet, as preferred, and between the strips, (the number of which is regulated by the size of the cover) fans o f different colors are em­broidered in slip-stitch done with floss-silk. The fans follow cadi othei straight up and down in regular suc­cession and colors, blue, green and red.

Chicken Cheese.—Boil two chiekeu-t in water enough to make them tender; take them’out when done and remove all the bones; mince the meat very fine; season with salt, pepper and bu t- ter, and return them to the water in which they were boiled: cook until the liquid is nearly gone; pour into a deep dish ; lay a plate over it, put 01. it a weight, and set away in a cool place. When ready to be eaten, cut it in slices, and it w ill be as firm as cheese.

Chocolate.—To each quart o f new milk, or half milk and water, allow three heaping tablcspoonfnls ot scraped chocolate. It is best to set a cofioe- pot, or any convenient dish, into a ket­tle of boiling water; pour in the milk and as it heats add the chocolate m ix­ed to a paste with a little milk; boil for two or three minutes and serve. Some prefer to boil chocolate only one minute, others fifteen, while others lioil it one hour, setting aside to cool that the oil may be removed, and then reheating when wanted.

Lightning Cake. —Persons who ‘ ‘just drop in’5 are a nuisance in the opinion ofmany housewives, who, nevertheless, w ill be glad to learn of a cake of which the making and baking occupies only fifteen minutes, and which, therefore, w ill serve to conceal the nakedness of the larder when unexpected guests ap­pear. Take the yolks o f four eggs, three tablespoonfuls of sugar, the same o f flour, about twro lablespoonfuls of milk, and the juice o f half a small lemon; the whites o f three eggs :ue beaten to a stiff froth and mixed with the yolks, flour, etc., the compound then being put in a buttered pan and placed in a quick oven.

Making Tea with Cold Water.—Did any one ever try making tea with cold water? I f you never did. just do so the next warm day when a cool re­freshing beverage is desired. Place the tea in a pitcher in the morning with just enough cold water to cover it. A t dinner time fill the pitcher with cold water from the well and you will have the best cup o f lea you over drank—that is for warm weather. The finer qualities o f lea are much more fully retained than when steeped upon the fire. And who wishes a eup o f scalding tea on coming in straight from the hot harvest field and tiio scorching glare of our August sun?
