FOR THE

PEOPLE.

FRENCH ECONOMY.

The French batcher separates the ibones fro pi his steaks, and places them {where they will do the most rood. The ihousewjfe orders just enough for eaoh .•person, and no more, even to the coffee. -If a ohanoe -visitor drops in, somebody quietly retires, and the extra oup is so .provided, bat nothing extra by carelessness or intention, when the pot has &boiled, the handful of charcoal in the tittle range ia extinguished and waits •for another tiuie. No roaring fires and "red-hoi oovers all day Iqng for no purpose but waste. The egg laid to-day costs a little more than the one laid last week. Values are nicely estimated, and fthe smallest surplus is cartel nlly saved. 4A thousand little economies are practised, and it is respectable to practice them. Cooking is an economical as well as a sanitary and gustatory science.

French cook will make a frano go as far as an ordinary English housewife will make three we should probably be greatly astonished, could the computation be made, how much of the financial recuperative power of France is owing to her soups and cheap food better living, after all, than the heavy bread and greasy failures oi our culinary ignorance. The French mans or woman's financial conscience will not permit waste, or exceeding the income, no matter how small. The Pari* workman saves something every day out his little wages, despitoTall the city enticements, and by anu by is ajjt to go back to his native village and purchase his little plot, and live on it contented, never poor enough to be Insolvent. With Freneh economy, we should not only be richer than Frauce, but our rapidly accumulating material resources would help to build a national prosperity and renown that France, with all her antecedents and incumbrances, can never emulate.

FRENCH COOKERY.

Meats should be selected with a view to the method of cooking to bo adopted. The French never boil meats unless for the purpose of making soups. They regard boiled meats as comparatively worthless, and never serve them unless in some prepared form to restore flavor and lost nutrient principles. We forget in this country tnat to boil food, be it meat or be it vegetajol®9.

to extract

from it, first, its volatile aroma, then its essences of juices, its nutritive power and these go out into the hot water, which is stupidly thrown away. Boiling meat or vegetables in France is to make soup, and so-saving are they that even the water in which beans and cauliflowera.have been boiled is always kept to serve as a basis for vegetable soup, Etfery liquid which h«*s received the extracted flavor of a boiled substance is looked upon as precious, and is employed again In some form so as not to waste the properties which it has acquired. The entire system of French cooking, both in form and practice, is to save the whole nutritive elements of every substance, to pass into the stomach, instead of allowing it to be poured down the sink spout or sending it to the pigs. Tbe lesson taught us In this regard should be heeded. Butcher's bones, and those of fowls, which here go tho wastn bucket or to the soap boiler, covered with fragments of meat and loaded internally with ri«h suet, are in Fiance carefully sought lor and employed in making soups. Nothing is wasted which can bq used for human food. Soups are so common it may be said the nation lives on them. The average earnings of laborers in Franco do not exceed thirty cents a day, and yet from this pittance they coutinuo to live comfortably. Tbe average ot health in the population is much higher than in most countries, and the average length of life is as high as 38 years.

EXPANDING THE LUNGS. Step out into the purest air you can find stand, perfectly erect, with tho head well up and the shoulders back, and then fixing the lips as though you were going to whistle, draw the air, not through the nostrils, but through the lips into tho lungs. When the chest is about half full, gradually raise the arms, keeping them extended, with the palms ef the hand down, as you suck In tuo nlr. so a* to bring them over the head just as tho lungs are quite full. Then drop the thumbs inward, and after

Sle

ontly forcin# the arms backward and I'hest op«n, reverse the process by which you drew your breath till the lungs are entirely empty. This process should be repeated immediately after bathing, and, also, several times through the day. It ia impossible to describe to one who never tried It, the glorious sense of vigor which follows this exercise. It is tho boat expectorant In tho world. We know a gentleman, the measure of whose chest had been Increased by this means som« three or four Inches during ft3 many month*

WORK.

Hie

man who has nothing to do Is the most miserable of Mings. No matter how much wealth a man possesses, he can neither be contented nor happy without occupation. We were born to labor, and tne world is our vineyard. We can find afield for usefulness almost anywhere. In occupation, we forget our cares, our worldly trials, and our sorrows. It keeps us from constantly worrying and brooding ovor what is inevitable. If we have enough for ourselves, we can labor for the good of others and such a task ia one of the most delighttul duties a worthy and good rnau can possibly engage in.

SancLD cattle boat any time In danger of choking by reason of any foreign substance sticking In tbe throat, take of fine chewing tobacco enough to make a ball as largo as a hen's egg dampen it with molasses so it canoe compressed into a ball, and will adhera oloaely elevate the animal's head, pull oat the tongue and crowd the ball as tor down tho throat as possible. In fifteen minutes it will eause sickness and vomiting, relaxing the muscles so that the potato, or whatover may be choking it, will be thrown up. *.*. jjjg*

WORK HORSES.

Nine hour's work in the field, no* that we have so many labor-saving implements, is enough for horse or man. Two hours rest at noon will be well for the horses, giving them time to eat, and opportunity to digest their food. The tenth of the time thus taken from the work will be more than regained in tbe better health of the animals, and their better ability to work the other uine hours.

A irrai Bseton boy was inconsolableat the loss of a toy ballson that escaped from him ana went toward tbe clouds t"he other day, because, «s he said, it c*ftt him twenty-firs cents, and he didn't want God to got It for nothing. & '***_

OUR VIEWS IN GENIAL. Views are a good thing to have, In a general way. A man who doesn't enCertain views of his own on matters and things Is of Bd particular aooount, in whatever way ^ou view .him.

It 1* very nu^eiy that you meet a man who will calmly acknowledge that he has no views, and few indeed are there who are not ready to affirm, "I have my views," whether they have or not.

Will the Judge please give the meeting his views on the matter in question?" And the Judge, who is a man of views, knowing how fatal It weuld be to hia reputation to be caught without thom, gets up and gives his views with readiness and-alacrity, although he may have given the question at issue no thought wnatever. And his views are accepted and adopted, because there are so very few who are troubled with views oi their own. Many an individual who saya, "I have my own views on the subject," has nothing of the kind. If he has any views at all they are some other man's.

Much as we admire the man who hts views, we instinctively avoid him. lie is constantly offering them,' or stating them, or giving them, whether anybody wants them or not. He is the man who is the first to get up in a public meeting and the longest to stay up. He writes all the communications to the papers, setting forth his "views" on any exciting topic of tbe day. lie it is who button-boles you on tbe street aud holds you there, no matter how pressing may bo your business, to tell you "how I view it," so that the man of views is often a \ery,great bore. Do you got our views?

VQRS. [I

If you want to be happy, never ask a favor. Give as many as you can, and if any are freely offered, it is not necessary to be too proud to take them but never ask for or stand waiting for any.

Who ever asked a favor at the right time To be refused Is a woeful stab to one's pride. It'is even worse to have a favor grauted hesitatingly.

I suppose that out of a hundred who petition for the least thing—if it be even an hour of time—ninety-nine wish, with burning cheeks aud aching hearts, that they had not done so.

Don't ask favors of your nearest friends. Do everything for yourself, until you drop and then if 'any one picks you up, let it be because of his free choice, not from any groan you utter. But' while you can stand, be a soldier. Eat your own crust, /ather than feast on another's dainty meats drink cold water rather than another's wine.

The world is full of people asking favors and people tired of granting them. Love or tenderness should never be put aside, when its full hands are stretched toward you but so few love, so few are tender, that a favor asked is apt to be a cruel millstone around your neck, even if you gain the thing you want by the asking.—[Mary Kyle Dallas, in Ledger.

THE CHILD.

People wondered the doctor did not hasten to place a block of marble to mark Blossom's grave, as mouth after month passed without recognition of this custom. But the designers of monuments did not wonder. He visited them continually, but their drawings did not suit him. From them be would go to the marble-yard and look searchingly at the many styles displayed, and to the rooms where tne choieest models were carefully placed, and would then slowly turn from them all, and, shaking his head, would walk away. "I can't tell what I want," he said one day. "I want my Blossom, and I can't have her, and so I want—well, I can't tell, only I don't want to look at broken rose buds and crosses and crowns and shattered columns when I visit my baby's grave. And I don't want to read 'Gone Before.' or 'Our Angel,' or 'Fallen Asleep'— nothing like those. As I don't know what I want, I will wait even awhile longer. I want my Blossem! I don't want her tomb stone to tell me of her death every time I glance at it God knows there is no need of that. It was such a mysterious Providence that took my treasure from me! O God! I cannot understand it I want to love the little monument I want it to be something more than marble to me." .. ®.

UGHING CHILDREN. »11

Give me the boy or girl who smiles as soon as the first rays of the morning sun glance in through the window, gay, happy and kind. Such a boy will bo fit to "make up" into a man—at loast, when contrasted with the sullen, morose, crabbed fellow, who snaps and snaris like a surley cur, or growls and grunts like a hyena from the moment he opens his angry eyes till he is confronted by his breakfast. Such a girl, other things being favorable, will be good material to aid in'gladdening some comfortable homo, or to refine, clvilizo, tame and harmonize a rude brother, making him

tentle, affectionate and lovable. It is a to even look at such a ioy inspiring girl, and see the smiles flowing, so to speak, from her parted lips, displaying a set of clean, well-brushed teeth, looking almost the personification of beauty and goodness singing, and as merry as the birds that commenced their morning concert long before tbe lazy boys dreamed that the sun was approaching and about to pour a whole flood of light and and wartnth upon tbe earth.

Ayer's Ague Cure eradicates the noxious polsou from the system, and leaves the patient as well as before the attack. It thoroughly expels •he disease, so that no Liver Complaints, Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Dysentery or Debility follows the cure. Indeed, whore Disorders of the Elver and Bowels have occurred from Miasmatic Poison, it removes the cause of them and they disappear. Not only is It an effectual cure,but, 11 taken occasionally by patients exposed to malaria, It will expel the poison and protect them from attack. Travellers and temporary residents in Fever and Ague localities aro thus enabled to defy the disease. The General Debility which is so apt to ensue from continued exposure to Malaria, lias no speedier remedy.

For Liver complaints, it is-an excellent remedy. I'RKPAnin ny
