Dr. HoluieV GooUreltowshlp.
Speaking of the democratic manners
of l)r. Ilolmos the Boston Transcript
says: “Who has not seen him time and
time again within the last few years
seated in the Old Corner book store dis
cussing the new books amiably with
people who came in, and denying
neither his wit nor his smiles to any
chauce comer of good manners? Until
within a few years Dr. Holmes used to
go home from King's chapel on Sunday
on a horse-car in the most democratic
manner in the world, chatting pleas
antly with acquaintances and giving
all the people in the car the benefit of
his witty sallies; for with Dr. Holmes
it was not necessary, as it is with a
good many humorists, to study up
humor in advance; he always had it on
tap as it were. In his house he had no
airs of greatness or exclusiveness. He
was really glad to see people who
came to him on any respectable errand,
and in his declining years, when he was
not so busy a man as he had been, he
liked to read his verses to visitors
whose interest appeared intelligent.”
An accomplished woman who has
been adopted by the Seneca tribe of
Indians and who takes a deep interest
in their welfare and advancement, is
Mrs. Harriett Maxwell Converse, who
resides in New York city. In 1792 the
Senecas adopted her grandfather, giv
ing him the name of Ty-ya-hy-ez, which
means honest trader. In 1804 her fa
ther was adopted by them, and it was
but natural that she should have great
influence with them. Some four years
ago they made Mrs. Converse a chief,
she being the first woman to receive
such an honor. The3' call her Ya-ie
wah-noh, which interpreted is to the
effect that she has watched like an
eagle over their interests. Mrs. Con
verse has many magnificent wampum
belts of great value.
The universal postal congress, which
meets in Washington in 1897, will be
an occasion of great interest to man
kind. No less than one hundred and
fifty delegates are expected, represent
ing every phase of the great business,
and every part of the civilized world.
The event will be of great benefit to
this country, since it will bring before
cur people the shortcomings of our
mail service. Local postal arrange
ments are still deplorably behind those
of seVbral foreign countries. The
chief action of the congress will prob
ably be the adoption of an internation
al stamp for universal use.
The woman suffragists are waging vig
orous war on the Pacific coast. The Wom
en’s Equal Rights league of San Fran
cisco seems to have captured many of
the prominent society people there,
and swell social events are being made
the medium for missionary work, as
was the case in New York last winter.
The league has secured, maybe im
ported,a New Zealander—not a tattooed
savage, but just an ordinary, meek
white man —and he is telling San Fran
ciscans how lovely things are in New
Zealand, where they have women may
ors and talk of having women members
of parliament.
An editor out west, having been
asked if he ever saw a bald-headed
woman, replied: “No, we never did.
Nor did we ever see a woman waltzing
around town in her shirt sleeves with
a cigar between her teeth and run into
every saloon she saw. We have never
seen a woman go fishing with a bottle
in her pocket, sit down on the damp
ground all day and go home drunk at
night. Nor have we seen a woman
yank off her coat and say she could
lick any man in town. No, God bless
her, she isn't built that way.”
“Among our present slang expres
sions found in Shakespeare did you
know that ‘touched’ was numbered?’'
asks a reader of ancient history. “You
will find it in ‘Timon of Athens,’ where
a servitor of Timon’s having appealed
to Sempronius for a loan and been told
to try some other of his master’s
friends, replied: ‘My lord, they have all
been touch'd, and found base metal; for
they have all denied him.”’
Hawaii is not the only place where
prisoners have been known to be hired
out for domestic service. It was dis
covered some years ago that long-term
convicts in jail at New Castle, Del.,
were commonly sent on errands about
town, and even life prisoners were
slightly watehed. A murderess was
employed in the jailer’s family and per
mitted to go about the streets.
A native .officer, who attended the
wedding of the duke of York, has been
giving his favorite newspaper, upon his
return to India, a graphic account ol
the festivities. Here is an illustrative
gem. “Afterward the chaplain came
and performed the ecclesiastical preju
dices in accordance with the laws of
Christianity, and prayed some preaches
out of the Bible.”
A case of almost incredible meanness,
but one that is well authenticated, is
that of a man in Lansing, Mich., whose
horse ran away. A brave lad of ten
stopped it, turned it around and drove it
back to meet the owner. The latter
threatened to have him arrested for
trying to steal the rig.
' —“Papa,” said Willie, “aren’t you
stravagant?” “In what way, my boy?”
“You spend a hundred dollars sending
me to school for a year. Fifty dollars
would buy toys enough to keep me go
ing for two years. ” —Harper's Young
People.
HOUSEHOLD EREVITIES.
—Apple Boiled Pudding.—lnto two
eggs, beaten light, stir a pint of milk,
flour to make a moderately thick bat
ter, a heaping teaspoonful of baking
powder, and lastly a pint of chopped
tart applet, Boil in a pudding mold or
covered tin pail, and serve with liquid
sauce flavored with jelly, or with hard
sauce.
—Grated Apple Pudding. —Beat half
a pound of sugar and a quarter of a
pound of butter to a cream. Add about
six grated apples, the rind of two
lemons and the juice of one. Stir this
well together, then add two cups of
Cream or milk, add five eggs well
beaten. Line the dish with puff paste,
and bake it one hour. This may be
made without a crust. —Boston Budget.
—Potato Puff.—Take two tcacupfuls
of highly seasoned mashed potatoes;
add two tablespoonfuls of melted but
ter and beat to a cream. Beat the
yolks of two eggs and add to the
potatoes, then add a cupful of sweet
milk. When this is thoroughly mixed
stir in as lightly as possible the beaten
whites of two eggs; pile on a buttered
plate and bake for ten minutes. —Ohio
Farmer.
—Panned Oysters.—One quart of oys
ters, some thin slices of toast, butter,
salt and pepper. Have ready some
“patty-pan.” Cut stale bread to fit the
bottom of these. Toast and lay a
piece in each. Wet with oyster liquor
and put into each pan as many oysters
as it will conveniently hold. Pepper
and salt. Put a bit of butter upon
each. Arrange all in a large dripping
pan, invert another of the same size
over it, and bake eight minutes, or un
til the oysters curl. Send hot to table
in the pans. —llomc.
—Potato Ci’oquettes. —The ways of
making these are various and many,
but the following is as desirable as
any, being both good to eat and eas3 r
to make. Chop finely a quarter of an
onion, a sprig of parsley and one of
thyme for each cup of cold mashed po
tatoes; mix thoroughly, season rather
high and mold into balls. When ready
to fry, dip into beaten egg, roll in
flour or cracker crumbs and cook for
three minutes in boiling lard. A wire
frying basket lessens the work of fry
ing, but it is not a necessity.—Prairie
Farmer.
—Chipped Pears. —Take pears not
quite ripe, pare and core, and cut them
into long, thin strips. To eight pounds
of the fruit put eight pounds of sugar,
the rind of four lemons cut into strips,
the juice of the lemons, one-fourth
pound of race or green ginger, and one
half pint of water. Boil until the fruit
is transparent if held to the light. The
ginger must first be scraped thorough
ly and cut fine, and the lemon peel
should be boiled in water until tender,
to remove the bitter taste. Or you
may use only thin shavings of the
outer rind. —Orange Judd Farmer.
—Apple Fruit Pudding.—Pare, core
and mince a half-dozen large sour ap
ples, mixing them with six large table
spoonfuls of grated bread crumbs,three
entire eggs,beaten together, two-thirds
of a cupful of sugar, half a cupful of
Zante currants and the same quantit3 r
of seeded raisins, a heaping tablespoon
ful of butter, three of flour, cinnamon
or lemon peel to taste. Add half a
cupful of fruit juice of any kind, or of
dissolved currant jelly, stir in enough
flour—about three tablespoonfuls—for
a thin batter, with a dessertspoonful
of baking powder. Steam in a mold or
boil in a covered tin pail for three
hours. —Good Housekeeping.
Hints for Fall Costumes.
When I was in Paris in July the
French modistes were preparing
models for the United States, and one
of the best known said that only Amer
icans would take draped skirts. Sure
ly this is hint enough to warn us not
to accept what Paris avoids. During
my late visit to this center I found the
universal and handsomest skirts were
of the godet shape, having smooth
sides and front, and the fullness at the
back confined to a width of three
inches, and lined with grass-cloth or
crinoline all the way up to give a
graceful, sweeping appearance, while
the remainder was faced with the same
to fully half of the depth. The skirts
were cut to touch at the back, but this
does not seem so much out of place in
Paris, where the streets are the clean
liest of all known, and there are but
few handsomely-dressed women that
do not drive. The neatest skirts are
made with every seam bound with silk
tape, and the top corded in place of a
belt. All rich materials, like silk,
moire, ladies’ cloth, etc., have the
j skirts untrimmed; thinner goods may
have a tiny cluster of three two-inch
bias over-lapping ruffles, a style that
never goes out in Paris. Serge, cheviot
and such goods have from three to five
rows of stitching above the velveteen
binding as a trimming. The bias seam
up the back is worn.
