DOMESTIC LIFE

AS SEEN IN GERMANY BY A YOUNQ LADY TRAVELER.

Simplicity of the Honsehold Machinery— A Curious Custom—MMII wad Mealle—A Servant Glri'a Wage*—

l'3.

Tenacious of Their Title#. ..

[Cor. Jfeir York Christian Advocate.] The domestic machinery of the German* is much simpler than ours, and in many respect* more economical and practical. One truth is soon mvle apparent to a stranger, that is, that economy is a necessity in Germany. In a family of seven there is usually but one servant. She rises at 5 makss the kitchen fire, washes the floor and put* her own room in order. At ft the baker comes, then the man with milk and butter (the Gfirmang never put salt in their butter, so they l.uy it fresh every morning), The cblJren are awakened, and the maid helps them to dross, then raakei the coffee and serves it, first to the older children, who are obliged to be off for school at 6:30 in rammer and 7 in the winter. This done, in our family, the maid put) my sitting-room in order, washing the floor, dusting tae furmture and shaking the rugs. At 7 we have coffee an 1 by 7:30 I am ready to begin my work. After the rest of the family are served with coffee anl rolls, the sleeping and other room are put in order, each being wtuched cr waxed and ruga thoroughly beaten tben the maid goes to the market tc buy the dinner. There are no supplies in larder in Germany a« at home. If cold boiled bam or any cold meat is needed for •upper, the maid gees to the butcher and buys ju^fc enough for the meaL

A custom that struck me curiously was that of having shops in the basements of even the handsomest hou es on the mo fashionable streets—butchers, bakers, shoemaker!, notion stores, jewelers, all who can be found within a radius of a block .from any given point It is undoubtedly convenient for the people, but it mars the beauty of the streets very much. My maid has gone to market I believe, so by thii timo she has returned and is preparing the second breakfast, which is served at 11, and constats of a coupla of eggs and a slice ol brown tread, and perhaps a glas-i of milk for a boarder but for .the children and the rest of the family it is usually only a slice of brown bread an inch and a half thick with a little cold meat. Occasionally a cup ol chorolnto varies the monotony.

Tben come* the dinner at 2—soup, meat and vegetables, and dessert, the latter the children inly are allowed to have on Sundays. After the soup has been served the lady of the bouse puts what she intends for the maid in a dish, and on no account would a servant be allowed to take more than had been given her. The same plan is followed with meat and vegetable1). After the dinn«r di hes are washed, and the kitchen put in ordor, the maid dresses and take? the children out for a walk in the park, returning in tisno for 5 o'clock coffee, which even the little 8-yaar-old boy of my landlady drnnk every day. It was a problem to me how the chil Iron kapt their health, with cnfiVe in the morning and afternoon and at night. I nra sure American children could not endure it

At 8 supper is eaten cold moats, tea or milk or beer and bread and butter compose the nit at, The laundry work is always done out of tho houss to that lessen* the work of the one maid very materially. All bread, cake, pies, and even puddings, are bought ready •mado—ai we say of clothe\ The Iron ii much tatter than ours, because it is always thoroughly don?.

A good mild i* not paid more than UK) a year, and in many families only $12. They are nllowod one Hunday evening out in two weeks, and if they should ooine home later than they have promised, they do not go out again for a month. Alj dispute* between inistros* ami mail are settled by the police. In one hou I was in the quarrels were so frequent that one polieotnan, at least, was tbera mo of the time,

German women are much interested in their housekeeping they obey their husbands roliii lusly, because they havj to, and are very fomd of fancy work and—gossip] They are very tenaciou-i of th «tr titles, a:id if a laily'i to bind a doctor or professor, and you do not call har Frau Doctor or Frau lY:e*aor. you offend her mortally. I told my Germ in tenoher that I had some frie tds in Barlin whom I hai mat soma years ago in Homo, and toslcsd how I xhould address tue lady, a-* I was going there to dine. I thought the gentleman's title was Ju-tisirnth then I must rail her Frau Justisirath. "But," Isiid, "he is also Gehoimorath." "Oh, tben, that is still higher, and she mint be called Frau Gvheinerath*" Later on in thii conversation I mention*i that he was also professor in the university. The look of aravzemerit and pr*» I go', and the way in which fche said, **H»w lucky that you tolJ me you mu-t call her Frau Profe«or," convinced m» that I wouM hava made a *orlou mistake if I ha I us&l either of the first mentions! tit I*. &83P

KEYS.

^{Bessie Chandler in The Oratnry.1 iong ago in the old Granada, when the Moors were forced to flee. Each locked his home behind him, taking in his flight the key.

Hopefully they watched and waited for the time to coma when they Should return from their long exile to those homei so far away.

Bat the mansions in Granada they had left in all their prime Vanished, as the years rolled onward, 'neath the crumbling touch of time.

like the Moors, we all have dwellings where we vainly long to be, And through all life's changing phases ever fast we hold the key.

Our fair country lies behind us we are extie*, too, in truth, For no more ohall we behold her. Our

Granada's name i* Youth.

We have our delusive day-dreams, and rajoice when, now and then, Some old heart-trin? stir* within us, and we feel our youth again.

"We are younr," we eriei trium thrilled with old-time joys and glee, Then the dream fades slowly, softly, leaving nothing but the key!

^SOLDIERING IN FORMER DAYS.

A Boston "Training Day"—The Awkward Squads and the Fan They Created. [Boston Budget]

Boston has always been noted for attention to military matters an the soldierlike qualities of its citizens. Ever since the establishment of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery company, in 1633, this martial spirit has prevailed, and from time to time new independent companies have been formed, although the Massachusetts militia, revived and thoroughly organized by Adjt Gen. Sumner, tinder infraction from Governor Levi Lincoln, in 1833, made a very perfect and efficient pystem. The general musters of the various divisions, which occurred overy year, were events of great interest, especially to country people, who before the advent of railway communication were »«ldom treated to anything more novel and exciting than the annual town meeting or an occasional circui show.

May training day was also an event of considerable interest, and in the country towns was conscientiously observed, yet in Boston the fine uniform? and brilliant manoeuvres of the independent companies ware KO

curiously contracted with the crude inspection and drilling of the awkward squads composed of novices, that May training gradually became a burlesque of the most ridiculous description. The law required that every able-bodied citizen of 21 yean and upward must, in answer to his summons, appear ah t% designated locality provided with musket and accoutrements. The man of business, the mechanic, and the professional man would hastily leave his store, workshop or office,

OAU

foray would

be made upon gunsmiths! shops, secondhand shops or wherever an oid mu-ket could be hired or borrowed, to secure that indispensable weapon. Garrets and attics would be ransacked, and many an old revolutionary shooting-iron would be resurrected for the occasion.

On arriving at the rendezvous a motley assemblage would be teen. Well-dressed merchants, professional men and clerks were sandwiched in with shabby and sometimes very dirty individuals, yet it added to the picturesqueness of the scene, and some of tho roughest fellows contributed to the fun of the occasion their full share. One would a) pear equipped with a rusty old gun on which was fastened an iron padlock, a f-kewer for a priming wire and a well-worn clothes-brush for the regulation articles. A single musket would do duty, with dexterous handling, for two or three men. particularly as the inspecting officer would wink at those minor breaches of discipline, knowing that he would be remembered after the ad journmant at the nearest hotel. The calling of the roll was indescribably funny, the responses of "yaas," "heere," and "right," in avory tone of voice, from rough bass to rnlsetto in nasal shouts, was vastly amusing, while tho chaffing of officers and constables was incessant

The American Tooth Fast Disappearing, [Harper's Bazar.] The Am jricau tooth, the dentists tell us, is something fast disappearing. What is to take its place they leave to conjecture. Whether a toothless race is on its way, or whether a new animal is to be evolved from the present human creature on this continent, is perhaps an open question. Whatever it is that may come to pass, the fancy recoils appalle before the prospect Children of 12 years often have $100 worth of gold in their mouths, others needing as much quite as badly, but unable to afford the outlay children of It} often wear complete sets of false teeth and other children innumerable have teeth that are decayed before they penetrate the gum, and that have to be filled as soon as they are in sight, the crumbling material and thin enamel, even tben giving but little to work upon*

At first it was thought that all thii resulted from i^norauco, from candy-eatin from want uf care an 1 cleanliness. But it is understood now that in most cases the fault is inherent iu the quality of the tooth, and the only remady so far st* £«eted is a diet calcul i'

with especial reference to

the making ol sound bone. This is supposed fc» be found in the coarse grains and fo »d of similar chc ter, and the most confirmed beef-eater uLvo Wds to tha snperioriQr at this point of li kernel o' irrain that fecd« his beef it- lf.

CHINESE COOKING.

BTFISINE 6P THE MONGODAN RESTAURANTS OF NEW YORK CITY.

Dining In Genuine Oriental Style—The Tarlous Courses—Cost of a Good Dinner—The Element of Surprise—Simplicity.

[Wong (ihin Foo in Chicago News.1 In tte last two years New York fashionable society has cultivated a new crazeChristianizing and educating John Chinaman. Every church patronized by the ere me de la ere me has its Chinese class, it* Chinese teachers, its Chinese night-school. L'ke most crazss it accomplishes ut little in the way sought It has done much, however, in turning attention to Chinatown and in making known many things that heretofore were Celestial mysteries. Among these is the Mongolian restaurant It is safe to say that in 1S80 not more than a hundred New Yorkers had ever dined in oriental style. In 1S35 the number/ is far up among the thousands. The average American, wh9n he first approaches the Chinese table, does so in fear and trembling. Vague presentiments of ragouts of rats, mayonnais33 of mice, anl similar luxuries float through his mini. Nine times out of ten he leaves the table with tha conviction that he has, learned something, and that the almond-eyed sons of the queue are the best cooks in the world. So he goes again, and with him brings two or three inquisitive or adventurous friends.

There are six Chinese restaurants proper in the Mongolian settlement Each is famous for some dish or style of cooking. The Dalmonico of the number is Yu-Ung-Fang-Lau, at 14", Mott street Here repair Canton importers and Hong Kong merchants from 'Frisco, flush gamblers and wealthy laundry man. All of the restaurants are run on the sama plan. A plain wood fluor, swept and scrubbed hourly till it fairly shines simple pine or walnut tables, small stojls, crimsin bankers and mottoes on the walls, and a lavish display of curious porcelain vessels in racks and stands characterize one and alL

You have neve(r dined, reader, under such au' •tees. With two friends you enter Yg*fc g's and' perch on a stool near a large sqimre table The next moment the attendant has put down in frout of you a tea-pot filled with fre^h, boiling tea, a teacup one-third the siza of those used by Americans, two ebony chop-sticks, a porcelain spoon, a tiny liqueur bowl, and a saucer filled with a chocolate fluid called se-yu. This is a hybrid between salt and dilute Worcestershire sauce. From its name comes the familiar British term "soy." The first course is cold roast chicken, served with pickled perfumed turnip. The flesh is tender, snow-white and free from eauce. It is cut into small pieces, but these are arranged so as to preserve the outline of the fowl. You seize a piece with your chopsticks, dip it in the sauce, and then eat it in solemn silence.

The next course is fresh fish, steamed, boiled, or fried whole and covered with a dark and very aromatio sauce. With it is served a bowl heaped to overflowing with rice. It is cooked as only the Chinese can —each grain soft and tender but distinct from its fellows. Next appears a bowl of chicken soup, on whose surface floats a few thin slices of some green vegetables. Then follow roast duck with pickled carrot, chow-chop-sue ragout hi chicken livft-, lean pork, bamboo-tip, celery, bean-shoots and onion), driad fl^h, steamed chopped pork, macaroni and ohicken, and dainty dumplings fliled with spiced hashed meats.

With the food9 are served tiny pitchers of liqueurs. One is a brown rice arrack, the econd a date brandy, and the third an orange gin. The nearest approache to thess in the American bar-room are Batavia arrack, pear brandy and green curacoa. All the dishes are well cooked and ssrved, and all area novelty to the most blase gourmet The made dishes especially are new and strange.

Tho next surprise is the bill The same or an equivalent dinner at an average restaurant would cost a party of three persons at least $5.5) in a first-class hotel, £&&0. At Yu ling'.-, however, tho cost is but 12.43. Of course the Mongolian has luxuries, and pays for them "aile samee Melican man." A duck half boiled and stuffdd with almonds, chestnuts, rasins, watermelon seeds, imported spices, and roasted, is worth $& A sucking pig similarly treated brings $5 to $7. Bird's nest soup at SO cents a rtiou, shark's fins fricasseed at 40, dragon fisu ragout at 35, and sea- worm at 75 are otber instances in point It is not uncommon for a Chinese dinner to cost (5 a plate, exclusive of wine, and on state occasions $40 a head has been the price paid by the giver of the feat

At these great dinners a feature of the cooking is tue element of s-urprise. A dih of apparently hard-boiled egg.s is placed before you. \ou open one and it is filled with & purplish custard, flavored with violets, a second has a brown filling, colored and flavored with chocolate, and a third a rosetinted and perfumed cream. A second di«h of eggs will contain as-orted es and icecream'1. Again, the attendant deposits before you what seems a well-boiled trout Yo ir chopstick removes the fi h-head and tkin at one touch and discloses a long dumpling filled with delicious chopped meat or game. Another charming dish consists apparently of small, w» 11-fried potatoes. Each one, however, is a thin shell of fine, thoroughly cooked dough, containing vegetables, poultry, fish, game, or meat

While dining you have a good opportunity to study the domestic habits of the Mongolian race. However crpwdeJ the restaurant may be, quiet reigns, broken only by the orders of the steward and waiters to tht» cook s, and the "thank ymi* of the guest In English the latter practice would become monotonia*. In Chiue thftre era (even expre-'-ian: for oar aal a happy variety therefore exist*. They eat l^l^urelv, and almost invafi&bly leave a port'on of thefr food unt uched.

Live Flower Pots,,,

Here is something very pretty and inter* esting for our young people.

OBOWXRO TASK. BMKT VASE. It is in brief, a flower pot with the plants upon the outside of it instead of the inside. Get a red earthen vase of a pretty shape. Tho one in the picture is as good as any. Even a common flower pot would do if the hole in the bottom was plugged up, so the water would not leak through. The vase or pot must be'of the unglazed earthenware. Th.'s is very porous, and will let water readily Eoak through. Even a brick will absorb a large amount of moisture, you know. Plunge the vase into water all over, and let it soak twenty-four hours. Tben all the pores will be full of water, from inside to out Fill it with water, and cover it thickly all over the outside with fine gras3 or hayseed. Any very small seed of the gras3 family will da The surface of the vase must be covered with the seed. In a few dav3 the seed will sprout, and the grass will shoot out it3 fine, needle-like spears. The vase will be covered with a beautiful living green, like a young wheat field in April. You have no idea what a nice ornament tha thing makes. The roots strike out and mat together and form a smooth, solid under surface, which holds this inverted small garden in its place. The coating con be peeled off the vase like a layer of an onion. The green will live several weelcs in this odd, pretty war. Try it In winter, when flowers and plants are so scarce, tho growing vase will be very attractive for the window or mantelpiece of a home. f'

The vasas, with the grass already sprbnted and growing upon them, are sold in the streets of New York city. They are considered quite curious and pretty. You see them occasionally as a decoration in the show windows of the stores. The vase o^ist be kept full of water, so the roots will not die out It is yery interesting to watch the tiny seeds sprouting out and starting to grow, right in the light, under your very eyes. It is an object lesson in botany. The vases are attractive decorations for a church, Sunday school room or dinner table. For the teacher's stand or any of the pupils' desks in a school house nothing could be more pleasing. It would give a refined and pretty look to the whole place. Such a growing vase is healthy in rooms.

d-JAbout Lion Timing.

There is no truth whatever in the idea often circulated that liontigers and other inmates of .hi "performing cage" are druggel or oihwwise stupefied before the master with the whip enters their den and proceeds to set it in an uproar. Another common belief is that reJ hot irons are employed in tam'.ng the creatures, or are always kept in readiness lest accident should occur. No lions or tigers are ever cowed with a red hot iron nowadays. A* a rule, lion tamers are not very fond of taking a cage cf young cubs and training them. It has been found that the hearts so brought uo are quite as treacherous and uncertain as any new corners who are at once taken in hand for show purposes.

It is a fact that lions vary decidedly in disposition and tastes. Some behave well enough so long as they are not punished and go through their various feata willingly others are furious if they are forced to leap about or act iu the den, but do not object to 'jeing whipped. The danger to the tamer is four times as great In the management of a cage containing both lion°S9es and lions as in one whore are only the males, anfl it is almost a1wa/s the case that the lady stirs her lord up to mischief, often at the cost of ahumanlifa

Looking on the woodland way! With clnps of rnododendromsand great masses of May blossoms! "There was an interesting group.

"Cot

ton spinner," bat now was so Paralyzed!!! That he could only bear to lie in a re dining position.

This refers to my case. 1 was first Attacked iwaive years ego with "Locomotor Ataxy" (A paralytic disease of nerve fibre rarely ever cured) and was for several years barely able to get about.

And for the last Five years not able to attend to my business, although Many things had been done forme.

The last experiment being Nerve stretch* ing. Two years ago I was voted into the

Home for Incurable 1 Near Manchester, In May, 1882. 1 am uo "Advocate" "For anything in the shape of patent" Medicines?

And made many objections to my dear wife's constant urging to try Ilop J3Uters,but finally to pacify her—

Oonsentkll I had not quite finished the first bottle when 1 felt a change come over me. This was Saturday, November Sd. On Sunday morning I felt so strong I said to my room companions,"I was sure I could "Walk!

So I started across the floor and back. I hardly knew bow to contain myself. I was all over the house. 1 am gaining strength each day, and can walk quite safe without any "Stick!"

Or Support. 4-x I am uow at my own bouse, and hope soon toke able to earn my own living again. I have been a member of the Manchester

"Royal Rxchange" For nearly thirty years, and was most heartily congratulated ou going into the room on Thursday last, very yours, JOHN BLACKBURN.
