O friends, now can ye forget so soon The loved ones who lie at your feet? But tne world goes round and round. And the sun drops into the sea; And whether I'm on or anter the ground, The world cares little for me.

Oh, what will It matter to me? vScribner for May. IX THE TEA CUP. One evening at tea I saw my wife give her tea cup a whirl, and then attentively re gard the grounds in it. "What's that, my dear?" I said. "Not telling your fortune in a tea cup?" - Mrs. Jones loosed confused for a moment. But when 1 began to lauzh 6he bridled up "You mea think yourselves very wise," she said, ''and laugh at such things. But for all that, I have known many a fortune told in a tea cup. In fact," here she hesi tated and blushed again; but then went on quickly, "in fact I first knew I was to marry you by consulting a tea cup." "Indeed C cried I, my skepticism quite staggered. "How was it my deari' "Just like you men," she answered trium phantly, "full of curiosity, though you say we women have it all.'' And with these words she composedly lifted the the pot, filled her cup, and went on tantalizingly with her meal in silence. "Now, my dear," I began coaxingly. "Now, Mr. Curiosity," she retorted archly, As the children had been put to bed at dusk, according to custom, ana there was no one else by, I rose from inv seat, crossed over to Mrs. Jones, put my arm around her neck, and kissed her. '"Well, well," she said, crimsoning like a young girl, and evidently gratified, "you are a teate, Smith; I suppose I must; so sit down and behave yourself." And ehe arranged her collar with considerable disriav. "You remember when I lived with Uncle Joshua and Aunt Sarah," she began, at last after this was finished. Of course, my love," I replied, "who ould forget your uncle a venerable pig' tail? No offense, I hope. You must own that he was rather an odd-looking fish." -lie was a gooa uncie to me, saia my wifa, with a touch of sadness in her rebuking voice, "lie took me when I was an orphan and maintained me till I married you. I made my peace again by a kiss. I am afraid my young lady readers will think rne very rude for it; but, nevertheless, truth must be told. And now my wife proceeded ""Well, the very night after the great sleighing party, on which 1 was introduced to you, and when, if you remember, you would dance with me so often, even to the neglect of Tatty "Walker, your partner, Cousin Jane was joking me about it as we washed up the tea things. Uncle was sitting by the fire, and Aunt beside him, so that we thought no one heard us; but, all at once, Aunt, who had ears like a cat, rose and came toward us. ' hat's that 1 hear,' she said; '.Sary Ann got a new beau? "Well. T rlprlfirn thpr npvpi1 nrac ancVi a she has twenty sweethearts where I had one.' You know, Smith, how jealous you used to ber 'Pshaw," said I, "how you women im agine things!" "Jane up arid told her all about it," con tinued my wife, a little crest-fallen; "and when she had concluded, Aunt barah took one of tho cups, and said: 'I'll tell you your fortune, Sary Ann, in the good, old-tashioned way; there s nothing like tea-grounds-they're ßov'riny my child.' "With that she whirled the cup around, and when she had done, held it to the candle, all three of us looking in. 'See them leaves close together,' she said; that means that danger is near. It's the danger of your driving your lover away by flirting, my dear,' she continued, 'But here's a clear path, winding through a dark wood, with no stalks to cross it that promises fairl And a ring, too which means a marriage And with these words she pushed her spec tacles up from her nose, and looking at me, said: 'It's as clear as daylight, Sary Ann, you're to marry this new beau, and be both happy and rich, unless you prove your own enemy by flirting with other sweethearts. That flirting's the danger that is threatened. If it's safely got over, all the rest's fortune.' bhe raised her voice at these words, which woke up Uncle, who bad been taking a nap, He growled out: 'Now, wife, don't be mak ing a fool of yourself and the girls by telling fortunes; I declare you women are duncc3, anyhow, or vou wouldn't believe in such atuffl' So we had no more that night. But you know. Smith, I did marry you; and you know that, once or twice, what you caiiea my mrting naa nearly broken everything between us; and so I have good reas on to believe in telling fortunes with tea cups, haven't 17" What could I say? Should I outrage the affectionate creature by telling her that I doubted her conclusions, though I fully admitted her premises? And besides," she added, with a look that reminded me of our days of courtship, " I have been both rich and happy ever since. Richer than I ever expected to be in my most romantic moments, for uncle and aunt were poor, as well as old-fashioned, and living away off in the country as they did, neither Jane nor I had always what others considered merely necessary comforts. How ever, uncle and aunt did for us all they could," she added, a tear coming into her eye. "They were excellent reoDle" I said. drawing closer to my wife; and ashamed of myseir for ever having laughed at the cue of the one or the cap of the other. "I love them for your sake." A grateful look was my reply, and hiding her head on my breast, my wife proceeded: "And then, as aunt prophesied, I have been so happy, too, you Dear with my faults so kind'y, Smith; and, besides. I am not a troll? and cost vou a wrent Ae of mrai' you might, perhaps have been happier if you had married a healthier, better wife " Her tears were now flowing fast. But they were tears of joy more than of sorrow. I kissed hcrforhead fondly, resolving never again to find fault, even in my own heart, with her. I should be a sad dog, I thought, if I did. J am not convinced even to this day, that

fortune can be read in the drega of a teacup. I should be very sorry; too, if my friends knew that Mrs. Jones 'thinks so, for they would consider it a weakness. But I, who know her better, can make allowances. She is an excellent creature In spite of her tinge of fatalism. Thomas Jefferson. I Forney's Progress. One hundred and thirty-eight years ago Thomas Jeffarsonjwaa born, and a company of New York gentlomen, of which lion. John L. O'Sullivan is the most active, have begun a movement to erect a colossal statue of Jefferson in a conspicuous part of this great city. Among those who have been asked to assist and who have consented are Samuel J. Tilden, Winfleld S. Hancock, Samuel J. ltandall, J. S. Black, George Bancroft, Charles Gordon (ireen, Kobert M. McLane, Thomas F. Bayard, A. Ü. Thurman, William McCanJlcss, Goorge B. McClellan, Horatio Seymour, General Daniel E. Sickles, Joel Parker, John B. Stockton, and W. V. Corcoran, and it is believed the monument will be ready in time for the opening of the World's Fair, in 1883. That Fair is now a fixed fact; and, although it has had the usual discouragement the same that beset London in lt-"4, Philadelphia in 187G, and Paris in 1SG3 yet, since the Pennsylvania Kailroad has come forward with such munificence, adding to and making up the first million of necessary dollars, other subscriptions will speedily follow. The Jefferson statue will be dedicated, therefore, in advance of the next Presidential election, two years after the celebration of the anniversary ot tho capitulation of Lord Corn wallis at Yorktown, which takes place in 1881, and one yeaa after the ceremonies at Philadelphia, in tho autumn of 1882, the bicentennial of the settlement of that City by William Penn. Should the movement to remove the remains of William Penn from Buckinghamshire, about twenty miles from London, where they rest in a plain and neglected Quaker churchyard, to Fairmount Park, near Philadelphia, be crowned with success, that will be another fitting introduction to the honors that will hail the hundredth year of the peace between England and America. Thomas Jefferson first saw New York in the spring of 1776; ten years before the Declaration of American Independence, when the whole State of New York had less than 20,000 inhabitants (now nearly 5,000,000), and be was only twenty-three years old. He had never been outaide of bis native province. Ho had witnessed the first great struggle in the Virginia Hou.eof Burgesses, at Williamsbarg, Va., in 17C5, between Patrick Henry and the Tories, on the Stamp Act. Tatrick Henry was then twenty-nine years old, a member of the Virginia Assembly, and was the guest jf young Jefferson. Madison was seventeen years old, and George Washington thirty-th:ee,and allritish officer, as young Henry's voice rolled through the hall "in torrents of sublime eloquence." Jefferson was first alarmed, and then swept away with the rest, and the Tories were very indignant. The resolutions against the Stamp Act were all carried, the last one by only one majority; and the King's At. torney-General, Peyton Randolph, brushed past the young, red-haired student, Jefferson, exclaiming loudly: 'IJy Godl I would have given 500 guineas for a single vote I" This work done, Patrick Henry, suspecting nothing, rode to his country home, while Jefferson staid behind. The next morning another Tory member of the House came in, and ransacked the journals tor a precedent and found one in favor of expunging Henry's offensive resolutions. Jefferson saw the plot, and, as ho was not a member and the groat orator was gone, he could not stop the Tory revenge, and the resolutions were expunged. In the spring of 1706 he commenced his first trip to Philadelphia and New York. It was a rough trip. He had to cross wide and swollen rivers before ho got to Annapolis, Md. A great freshet was pouring over unbridgod water-courses. His horse ran away with him twice. A drenching rain poured down

on him day and night, and he could find no shelter. On his third day he was almost drowned in trying to ford the swollen river ramunkey. At last he got to Annapolis, the Capital of Maryland, a town of 1,000, now 5,741 inhabitants, lie bad a long ride to Philadelphia, and when he got there (population in 1769,12.500, now in 1881, 857,000), he had himself inoculated I there was a great panic about the small-pox then as now. Arriving at New York he found a clean, crooked, little, half Dutch town, and was much amused at all ho saw. At that time two men, afterward great figures in American history, were unknown lads Aaron Uurr, born in Newark, N. J. February C, 175ß, was not ten years old. and .Alexander Hamilton, Dorn in tne island oi St, Croix, a British Colony, in 1757, was living there, aged eleven years. When we next hear of Jefferson, he was a raembw of the llouse of Burgees himself, in 1774. a proscribed man, a Democratic leader, and with Henry full of ardent patriotism. Boaton was proscribed by George Ill.for throw ing the tea into the sea. and ''the cause of Boston became the cause of all." The infant city became the target of British perse cution and American love, lhe port was closed by the King on the 1st of June, 1774, and the people began to suffer for food. All the Colonies seit something some money, otners Hour, otters provisions. Jefferson was a leader, active, bold, ubiquitous in the freat work. I count over what the South id 10i years ago with a glow of pride, under his glorious lead. What a record this in the delightful pages of Parton : All that summer Boston, suffering, impoverished Boston, lay upon every heart Each Province, County, city, town, neighborhood, sent its contribution to supply the needs of the people, suddenly deprived of their occupation. The port being closed on the 1st of June, the day of the yesr when the stock of food in a country reaches its lowest point, the farmers could not at first be as liberal aa they wihed: but they did what they could. Windham, Conn., began the work of relief. Before the month of June was ended Windham sent in, with a cordial letter of applause and sympathy, 'a small flock of sheep, which, at this season, are not so good as we could wish, but . are the best we had.' Two hundred and fifty-eight was Windham's notion of the number of sheep that go to 'a small flock.' Groton, Mass., sent forty bushels of grain; Wrentham, one load of gram; Pepponll, forty bushels; Charlemont, two barrels of flour; Farmington, between 300 and 400 bushels of rye and corn; ana fertile ethersüeld, nearly 800 bushels of grain, with promise of more after harvest. New Jersey soon wrote, to 6ay that she, too, was making contributions, and would be glad to know which would be most acceptable to a suffering sister, cash, or f)roduce. 'Cash,' replied Boston, 'if perfecty convenient.' North Carolina promptly sent two sloop-loads of provisions. The Marblehead fishermen were so liberal as to forward "225 quintals of good-eating fish, one barrel and three quarters of good olive oil, and thirty-nine pounds, five shillings an.d three-pence in cash South Carolina's first gift was 'one hundred casks of rice 'Baltimore town' contributed '3,000 bushels of corn, twenty barrels of rye-flour, two barrels of pork, and twenty barrels of bread.' Virginia there seemed to be no end to Virginia- gifts I A cargo of corn washer first offering; Alexandria followed soon after with a present of 5v0 in money. i

,t i r,t kant forwarding

cargoes and large consignment of corn, a through the autumn and winter, in sui vJSBa contributed about 10 000 bushell .of what one forwader styled in hia letter, donation grain,' besides several sums of money from village, and individuals. 'Hold out long enough,' wrote a gentleman from tne South, and Boston will become the granary of America.' . . "As the fiool season approached, the agricultural towns became more liberal. Lebanon drove in 376 fat sheep;' orwich .Jl, Groton 120; Brooklyn 125; East Uaddon. a drove of sheep and cattle.' The Maryland Counts were extremely liberal; each sent it 1,000 or 2.O0O bushels of corn. From cold and remote Quebec came a .n .,nt;t f wWt:' from Montreal a hundred pounds sterling. What droves of sheep kept streaming into uoawu uc temperaturo favored driving I From every little mountain town in New Hampshire and Vermont came sheep, fifty, suty-five. one hundred, in a flock, Hartford Bent off, after harvest, 738 bushels of rye, and 111 bushels of corn, its 'small but free gratuity. Berwick, with apologies for the smailness of its gift, sent six oxen and twenty-six sheep. Many towns and some Provinces, which out of the summer's scarcity had contributed contributed a second time from the autumn's fat abundance. Groton did so. und Marblehead. N. J., and Baltimore. "Individual donations swelled the tide of benefaction. Samuel Moody treated him self to a gift of five guineas. Philadelphia raised 2.000, and forwarded it, part in provisions, part In iron, part in money Providence voted 125. Newport contributed fl.OOO. New York sent a New Year's gift of 1,002, with notice of more to come. Clubs. Fire Companies, and other organizations, forwarded sums of money during tho winter. Charleston, S. C, alleviated the winter's cold with 378 tierces of rice. Tho Church in Salem, ju9t after their Meeting House was burnt, and a powerful member had drawn off a number of their body, contrived to send twenty-four pound, sixteen shillings and eight pence, 'wishing it had been ten times more. Little Kutland could only spare four quarters of beef, weight 593 pounds. Spring field gave twenty-five pigs, wjrth 'three pounds, eighteen shillings, one penny, law ful money.' Wells, in Maine, contributed twenty-five cords of wood; Falmouth, fifty seven cords. Cape Elizabeth, forty-eight cords; Portsmouth, in .New Hampshire vo'ed 200. From Delaware cam $W0 In the spring arrived another 1,000 from New lork. farmers who had nothing else to give carted firewood, some twelve miles, some sixteen. Dominica gave three bags of cocoa. Even from London from tho 'Constitutional Society' therecame a hundred pounds. From another society, called 'The Supporters of Civil Rights,' came 500; and four smaller sums were received from individuals in England fifteen pounds, twenty pounds, ten pounds, four guineas. Augustine W ashing, ton was asked whether he could sell a quantity of hoes and axes which Boston mechanics, thrown out of employment by the Port Bill, ha-l turned to and made. The Committee of llelief set large numbers of the mechanics at work making bricks, nails, fabrics, implements, and invited contributions of materials. And so the work went on, even after the siege of the town was begun by the Continental troops, Georgia sending sixty-three casks ot rice as late as June, 1776." These eflorts prepared Jefferson for the Congress of the Declaration of Independence. That work done, the war ended, peace secured; Hamilton a great leader under Washington, and Burr a Senator in Congress. Jetlerson was living in New York as Washington's Secretary of State. In this part of his experience he was very conspicuous in society. He had spent five previous years in Pans, as American Minister, and was qualified, therefore, to contrast the fashions of the old French and the young American metropolis. He returned greatly enlightened and improved by French society, and more intensely Democratic than ever. Tms was what he wrote as his plat form, while he was on his way to take his place in General Washington's Cabinet in New lork, and bofore his famous interview with the venerable Dr. Benjamin Franklin in Philadelpeia, who was then on his death bed, but his mind clear to the end. This was in March, and Franklin died in the following April of that 17!H), in his eighty fifth year. Benjamin Franklin was Jeffer son'a confidant to the last, and his posterity are Democrats to this day. And what Jefferson said at Alexandria, Va., here below, is stiL . he creed of the whole Democratic party ''Convinced that the Republican is tho onlyrorm of government which is not eternally at open or secret war with the rights ot mankind, my prayers and eflorts shall be cordially contributed to the support of what we nave happily established, it is indeed an animating thought that while we are securing the rights of ourselves and our posterity, we are pointing out the way to struggling nations who wish, like us, to emerge from their tyranny also. .Heaven help their struggles and lead them, as it had led us, triumphantly through them." When be reached New York, Jefferson found Hamilton Secretary of the Treasury, and the leader of aristocratic society. Accustomed as Jefferson had been to the follies of the nobility, and the profligacy of the Kings of Europe.he was startled at the symbols of royalty and the conversation of the people around him. He was much courted, but he found himself so environed with work, and so beset by new questions that awaited his action and inquiry, that he could only glance with surprise at the exhibition of frivolous foreign habits, and listen to their hollow Tory platitudes. And as I dwell now on what he denounced and discarded in 17 IK) in New York, I easily trace tho imitation of even stronger follies .and habits' taken from the same originals, at the present time, 1881. Jefferson says of his experience in New York at thii time: ' "I can not describe the Bhame and mortification with which the conversations filled me. Politics was the chief topic, and the preference of a kingly over Republican government was evidently the favorite sentiment: An apostate I could not be, nor yet a hypocrite; and I found myself, for the most part, the only advocate on the Kepublican side of the question, unless among the guests there chanced to be some member of that party from the Legislative Houses." He found the press as well as society impregnated with the same aristocratic spirit. The movements of the officials were blazoned forth in imitation of the Court Circular. Cabinet officers wero Excellencies, the wives of certain officers were Ladies, as Lady Stirling, Lady Mary Watt, Lady Kitty Daer. The Hamiltonian idea was the card, and the toast in camp and in court, in parlors and in parties.and Jefferson felt it as if it had been a wound. They soon learned to differ with much asperity, and their friends became antagonists in the newspapers. - Jetlerson felt that association with Hamilton could not be maintained, and he resolved to resign, and was with difficulty restrained by Madison. Monroe, and others. Meantime the administration of Washing ton was finished, and the career of Alexander Hamilton was cut short by the bullot fired by Aaron Burr in the duel in July of 1804, at Hoboken, in the very year that Thomas Jefferson was elected President of

story of violated confidence and blackmaiL and excited much feeling in private and Win. We hear of such trna! r: - nous aauy in all countries and times. Ifp t..t t was never implicated in the scandal, and Burr, who was his party advocate, moved afrainal hia rival for nthp .i ' , ""u man poitical differences. There is hardly a public man v.

Add two quarts of filtered water, and bottle for use in the toilet. Koast Lamb. Put the lamb in the dripping pan with a little hot water in the bottorn. Sprinkle with salt and a little pepper, Baste often and allow eight or nine minutes to a pound. When done taso the grease off the gravy, make it oubble on top of the 'stove and nake a thickening of browned flour. Parsnips Improved. Parsnips are not fully appreciated, perhaps because of their too sweet tatte; but this can be overcome to a palatabl extent by judicious cooking. They are excellent when sliced after beiling and warmed in a sauce made by mixing flour. butter and milk over the fire and seasoning it with salt and pepper, as soon as they are warm they are served with a little chopped parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice. For parsnips fried brown in an old-iashioned iron pot with slices of salt pork and a sea soning of salt and pepper, several good words migbt be said. DiPUTniRiA. In the hill town and ru ral districts generally, typhoid and dinhthe ria prevail, as well as in tho crowded city. The cause is always to be lookcu for in the careless sanitary habits of the people. The want of cl manliness and ventilation in tbe cellars, tlis decaying potatoes, apples and cabbages, old rotten cider barrels and soap and greass tubs, piles of filthy dirt, rags mingled with ashes on which rats and cats have had nightly battles, the damp air, and Centimes collections of water, and a tern perature favorable to organic lecompo ition all thee are conditions proline in the for mation of infecting poisons and in increasing the incomes of physicians. Angkl Food. Here is a recipe for ''An gel Food," the delicious white cake which has become so popular.' In taste and appeearancs it is everything that cake should be: The bite of eleven eggs, one cup of flour alter silting, one teaspoonful of cream tartar, Sift the flour and cream tartar four times. Beat the eggs to a stiff froth, and then beat in one and one-half cups granulated sugar, and a teacpoonful vanilla. Add tbe flour and beat lightly but thoroughly. Bake in an un greased pan, slowly, forty minutes, The pan should have a tin strip projecting above each corner, in order that when it is turned over to cool, the air may circulate freely under it. Cut it out when cool. The pan should be a new one. An ordinary pan will answer, if it be set on the edges of two other pans to cool. Sometimes housekeeper, will find that this cake bakes beautifully in an earthen dish. It is neces sary that the orcn should be a slow one; if it is very hot tne door may be left open, The cake should rise gradually. Poisov in Candies. In the statistical report of ths confectionery trade it is stated 'that most of tho large manufacturers adulterate their goods largely with grape 6ugar, glucose, terra alba, or white earth, and other injurious ingredients, and can thus afford to sell their products for lee price than the small manufacturers pay for 6Ugar. They also say that they can not use these adultcra tions in their way of manufacturing, and would not if they could; that if the authorities continue to allow the adulterated goods to be sold as sugar candies, the honest manu facturers will have to leave the b-.uinoss or retail the adulterated goods of tho large houses. The cost of granulated sugar by the barrel is ten and a-half cents, while that of grape sugar and glucose is four cents, and of terra alba one cent. They allege that the adulteration is from öO to 75 per cent, of the whole, and m gum-drop3 much more. They say that the consumption of these adulterated candies is the cause of more sickness and death among the children of New York City than t-.U the sower gas and dirty sireeis coniuineav Kelljrlon and Press The Catholic Telegraph indulges in Lenten homily on that very delicate and difficult subject, 4,the dressof American ladies.''

Moreover, is all this grandeur in good taste?'' Tha quotation from Buskin which . follows enn-odid wise suggestions. "Now mind,'' he says. ''you always dress charmingly; it is the first duty of a girl to be charming, and she can not be charming unless she is charmingly dressed. Set an example of a beautiful dress withoi-t extravagance, that is tc say.withcut waste . r any unnecessary splendor." Then follows a quotation from one greater than Buskin: "In like manner women in decent apparel, adorning themselves with modesty and sobriety, and not with plaited hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array, but as it becometh women professing piety with good works." These words are good, especially in Lent, when the Church cries with the wailing prophet: 'Gird thee with sackcloth, O daughter of my people, and sprinkle thee with ashes.

A MARRIAGE MILL. a Ichrm 8trt4 to Katie Yaaas Pepl Into Marrying for Pecuniary Profit. PbilsdslphU PreM.1 Device and schemes to catch the unwary are not confined to Mutual Benefit Aid Societies organized for speculation in human life, the wholesale chartering of which was recently ventilated in the Press. A later and more ingenious scheme has just been developed by a lot of State worthies, which is designed to draw poor but honest and unsophisticated young people of the country

into marrying for pecuniary profit, lhe following account of the scheme Condensed from thj Pittsburg Commercial Gazette. The Company has been Incorporated at liarrisburg and is known as the American Mu tual Aid Association for Unmarried People, which is officered by tbe following persons: William C. Kuser, President; L. S. Craumer. Vice President; S. M. Hummel, Treasurer; D, S. Hammaker, Secretary; David Kauch, General Agent, all of this State. TUC OBJECTS AND PI.ASiS. The Association is open to all unmarried persons, male and female, without retard to color, between the ages of ten and seventyfive years. Persons of the above conditions are eligible to secure a certificate in our Association for either $1,000. $2,000, $3,0(0, $4 KX) or $0,000 at the following membership rates: For a $1,00) certificate $G, for a SL',000 certificate $12, for a $3,000 certificate $18, for a $4,000 certificate $24, and for a $3,000 certificate $0. All persons must be members of the Association one year from date of their certificate before they are beneficial, and any member marrying beforn ho or h i a member one vear from date of their certificate, will forfeit his or her certificate and claims on the Society. Marriace assessments are graded according to aire, as set forth in the table, based on a tl,0K) certificate and 1.000 members. The assessment on a child ten years or age u thirty cents, and $2 for a man between 4t and 75, and proportionately. XOT CONFIXED TO ON K CLASS. The scheme is not confined to classes of 1 .000 members. The assessment on a $2,00(i certificate will be double tne above taoie, and on a $3,000 certificate three times, and so on in the same ratio. The second year, when members become beneficial, their as sessment will be based on 20 members, and they will consequently be entitlel to $250, or so much thereof as one assessment may amount to, less the cost for collection; the second beneficial year the assessment will be based on Ö00 members and entitled to $500, or 60 much thereof as one assessment may amount to, less the co-t for collection, the third beneficial year the assessment will be on 750 members, and secures $750 less the cost of collection, and the fourth benefi cial year the assessment will be on 1,000 members and hence entitled to $1 000 less the cost of collection, but in no case is the amount to exceed the face of the certificate, It will be seen that the younger yeubeceme a mcmVr and tbe longer you are a mem ber of the Association, the larger your prof its. now TiiF yzv THINi worm. An agent ot the Company was interviewed and gave the following idea of the working ot the scheme: " All certificates are non forfeitable that is to say cxchangable for a certificate of the amount paid by assessments, less the annual dues and membership fee which will mature according to the table, provided the certificate is surrendered according to its terms, after three annual payments are made. There aro protective organizations for about every emergency fire, sickness, death, and numerous other things but nothing whatever for the greatest event in human life, marriage, for then real practical life begins. In this Association you will not have to die for the s-ike of receiving the amount you are insured for. To help people to happiness and prosperity, the originators of this scheme will feel amply rewarded for the trouble and probable criticisms which all new undertakings are liable to encounter." " You have paid out none of those large benefits yet?" was asked. "Oh, no!" replied the agent; " we have only been organized a short time. It will require a year for a member to reap it benefits. We are doing all tho business we can haudle. I have just made out a policy for a drug clerk, and I tell you this scheme is A BIO THING FOR VOt'NU MUX who are working on small salaries and who see no present way to raise sufficient money to embark upon the sea of matrimony in reasonable style. Under a policy which I have just made out, a young, drug clerk has paid $30, and according to the regulations of the Company he can step out of the Association one year from to-day with $1,200 cash in his pocket provided he marries. The agent further remarked that he thought the new thing would be popular with girls, and statad that the Company's agent in Cleveland, Ohio, was overwhelmed with business, and the Company expected to do a big business in Pittsburg and other cities as soon as fnces were established. An Infallible Recipe. London Trltgraph That portion of civilized mankind whicb, being pcuniarily at its ease, may reasonably aspire to have its meals intelligently dressed, owes a deep debt of gratitude to the eminent Parisian physiologist, Dr. Delaunay, who has recently revealed to it a method of testing the culinary capacities of candidates for the important office of family cook. He does not hesitate to avow that. in his opinion, his recipe for the' choice of such a ministrant u an infallible one. It U as follows: When a self-styled cook presents herself with an offer of her services, do not trouble her with technical interrogations touching sauces, entrees and releves. She may have 44 crammed " the-e subjects in such sort as to teem with satisfactory answers to all queries, and yet be an execrable cook. But give her a plate and a napkin, and ask her to wipe the former with the latter. If, in performing this simple function, she cause the napkin to revolve from left to right, she is assuredly an accomplished culinary artist; if from right to left there can be no doubt of her gross ignorance and utter incompetency. It is but fair to Dr. Dolaunay to state that the application of this test to cooks is only one illustration of a theory set forth by him, and based upon tbe following curious assumptions: All persons given to describing circles from right to left are intellectally inferior to those who observe the contrary practice. This being so, It Is obvious that the culinary candidate whose lack of brain culture prompts her to wipe a plate in a series of movements in which the "barbaric curve" is repeatedly described, can hot possibly be endowed with mental capacity of a caliber enabling her to broil a chop; while the cook whose rotatory action with duster and dish exhibits the "civilized curve" may be confidently counted upon for the possession of intellectual powers capable of grappling triumphantly with even the most complicated and recondite problems known to the kitchen.
