no longer available on as “hash,” have ac
cumulated, chop the moat finely, soften the
bread with boiling water, then mix meat and

If you are so fortunate as 10 oe possessor
of two or even more boys, buy their clothes
of the same pattern or make of cloth. Your
boys are different from those in most families
if one does not wear his garments out much
faster than others. You will find his old
{Mints and eoats very useful in patching the
brothers’ clothing, if not too badiy worn to
allow of being mended. Such cloth is much
to be preferred, for the material being faded
and reduced in texture matches the garment
tube mended better than would the new,
while it works in to better advantage in
other ways, as the Good Book very truly
says in regard to putting new wine into oi l

the bottles. The same principle may lie ad

Mrs. Frank Leslie is filling the editorial

for which In' education, experience and nat

they would to a “chief” of the sterner sex.
Anil she meets their demands in a prompt

Marie Louise, the second wife of the Great
Napoleon, according to the Duchess of Abran-

fact in her “Memoires Conteinporaines,”

amusing the ladies of her court at their pri

pletely round, and in a manner closing them
up. This she did by a peculiar motion of
the jaw, and she is said to have prided her
self on the exploit not a little,

the story developed, its real merit was most i
cordially recognized. Neil Griffin's terrible

of the lawless men who condemned him—the

to Gallows Hill—the sight of a writhing hu

make a grand and thrilling climax. And the

A package of fine tobacco sent by a young
lady of Asheville, N. C., to Richmond, to be
sold, brought $5.25 per pound when it was
learned that the fair shipper intended to de
vote the proceeds to the relief of the Episco
pal Church at Asheville.
the consummate ability with which the plot
is managed, its details worked out; the thrill
ing, tragic situations; the perspicuous, elevat
ed style; the under-current of passion that
hurries on towards the denouement; the start
ling glimpses we have in the rush of the nar
ration as to what the denouement will lie; the
richly contrasting and Rembrandt like touch
es that give as bits of Southern and frontier
scenery, glowing with the color and beauty
of poetic interpretation—these are qualities
that stamp “Manch” as the work of a strong,
highly-gifted, original and imaginative mind,
familiar with the artistic elements essential
to the production of works of this kind.
From the Chicago Tribune.
“Manch” appeals powerfully to the sym-
athies of the reader. Dramatized it would
classed as an emotional drama; as a novel
it is difficult to assign to it a proper classifi
cation. It is exciting, working ever to effect
ive climaxes, thrilling in many portions,
arousing the sympathies of the reader and
holding his attention to the mid.
From the Lomscille Cornier Journal.
Its characters are made to stand out boldly
and distinctly; its plot is a strong one with no
minor parallel threads to detract irom its
power. Arousing interest at the beginning,
it sustains and increases it to the finale with
out relaxation. Its motion is consistent, and
at times intensely dramatic. In less skillful
hands it might have been called sensational;
in those of Mrs. Bryan it is an effective piece
of art. The sty le is colored with the warm
glow of the Creole. It is tinged by the touch
of a rich poetic temperament, and occasional
ly surprises on© with a unique figure or a
dainty fancy. But it is not weakly effemi
nate or florid; on the contrary, it is charac
terized by more of strength than accompanies
the work of most women.
From the New York Herald.
“Manch” is the singular title of an Ameri
can novel by Mary E. Bryan. The story
deals with W astern scenes and subj ects, and
that it is exciting, no one can deny. The
J'lot is intricate and the interest breathless,
fo an Eastern reader the story seems hardly
within the bounds of possibility, still truth is
strange and so are the people of the West.
Mrs. Bryan lays her local color on thick
and the scenes are life-like,”
