Those of us who were old enough during the civil v.ar to understand Its effects upon tk. social life cf the na tion will i'member that one of Its worst results Wa3 the dull misery of our borne life in the North and South. And this was due not so much to pov erty, nor to anxiety, nor even to grief for the dead, as to the bitterness with which the women took up tbe quarrel. The hero? staying wife and mother in Vermont or Georgia regarded her foes as monsters, and hated them accord ingly. Tbe non-combatant is always more vindictive than the man in the fight.

This Is the place I met her—there, In tbe rosy years, When life wos all of hope and all Its ways too sweet for tears: This Is the place I met is the dear, sweet place, And all the world is wondrous with memories of her face. Oh, It may he that not for me another light shall thine Like the lost light—like the past light that made sweet this life of mine; It may he I shall rever see, for all life’s grief and groce, The beam, the gleam, the stream—the dream, and over all that face! Strange ways, strnnge days and lands eeid hands, and what we think is ■ fate; But over ail some crimson bands that bind a twilight late With rare star-sprinkled roses, with all their youth-time groce, And those sweet lips that kissed me, and evermore that face! Let us forget ! and yet— and yet—we J will remember still The blood that made the rose so red— i the ripple of the rill— The hills that climbed to heaven, and each remembered place That made the whole wotld sweeter for ‘ one Oeor womar/s face. Dear saee! I mny not meet thee—l may not ever sight The phantom ship that bear* thee from ( the watchfires of my night; But still the beam, the gleam, the dream, and evermore I see A face that makes life beautiful —the one sweet face for me! —F .L.

An ssqulrsd taste In not to be renson td with, so it has be -n ssesrtsd, hut It is probable that climate has something to say Yn such matters. It Is a fact not so a* '* might be that the ran*? ' cooks season their dishes s<-*ardlng to the zone In wjilph thug find themselves. When Sidney Smith heard a bore complain that a boor t h«d Interrupted his dis course concerning the North Pole, 4)3 remarked: "It Is not surprising. Why, Just the other dsy I heard that felloe speak dls. respectfully of the equator.” Now, unlike the tone referred to, the cook who understands his or t»er busi ness has respect for latitude end shows it accordingly. A writer who has thor oughly studied the subject tells us that In our own temperate climate French cooks season with tEsyme. parsley, bay leaf, chervil and tarragon, ail of which. It may lie observed, are aromatlp, but I never, or hardly ever, use ginger, cur ry, cayenne pepper or allspice. As we go southward toward the land where the sun bakes and porches the earth and Its people all the year round, It seems strange that the demand In creases for the hotter seasoning of food. Vi l, A‘'bLG > ( at ln Mexico and ikg I 1 '*! IWtflwte are dishes which | mlgnt uie’ffesernffMl ffs bacLed or atew ed pepper, sessosssg fwlth a little beef; Vqd those of us who have partaken cf ' gumbo In the land’ where It forms a part of the dally dinner, will remember the flerrely hot little peppers we wera expectfg je tieaoan it with, pepper pick l’d by some colored "Peter Piper” from small shrubs growing In boxes on tho bock piazza very imperfectly shaded from the sttn by the Jack bean. In Flor ida, children have been seen to eat a large aid milder species of pepper, Just as they might eat an apple, and stuff ed eggs wherein mustard plays tin Im-. portant part are far more popular even In tbe nursery than the ordinary hard belled “fruit of thr> hen." In semi-trop ical climes we find ginger preserves In greater demand tfian the peaches nnd plums we see or more northerly tables, nnd farther south we encounter tho curry In its native land and Its unmod ulated glory. Here the conk, whether dative or Im ported from France, thinks but slightly of the mild seasoning herbs of the tem perate zone, and appeals to the flag ging appetite with allspice, ginger, chili and cayenne pepper. It is true that the nabob of the lost century, when he re tunned to England to spend the fortune he had acquired in India, took his cur ry with him, and it has remained in n somewhat modified form, on the Brit ish bill of fare, but it is an alien that will never he naturalized. It belongs to the land of the sun, though why the denize.ns of a burning climate must needs have a food that burns in two senses of tine word, is a question that, up to the present, has not been satis factorily answered.—Christian Work.
