or; be sure and beat whites a
long time or they will separ
ate. I make this at dinner and
serve it at supper. It. makes
a beautiful dish; ’tis delicious
in win ter, good ip summer.
Cauce for Pudding.—One
cup of sugar, one cup of boil
ing water, two tablespoons of
butter; put it on the stove and
let it come to a boil. Take the
yelks of two eggs beaten til!
light; take the sauce off the lire,
pour in the egg in a stream
lhe size of a knitting-needle,
stirring constantly. Bet back
on the stove and slir till it
thickens.
Molasses I’ie Jelly,—One
cup of molasses, one cup of su
- ir, one heaping tablespoon of
butter; mix it and put it on the
lire and let it come to a boil,
take off, alter it is cool add five
eggs well beaten, one-half cup
of sweet milk, flavor to taste,
flits makes three custards and
is delicious.
Biscuit Budding.—lf for din
ner, after breakfast take six
biscuit, shave line and pour
enough boiling sweet milk over
them to make a thick batter.
When mashed free from lumps,
beat ten eggs separately, then
add to the biscuit two table
spoons 01 butter, one cup of
sugar.
In bottling catchup or pick
els, boil tiie corks, and while
ho'; you can press them into the
bottles, and when cold they
are tightly sealed. Use the
tinfoil from compressed yeast
to cover the corks.
There shonjd be a small ta
ble, about the height of the
jangeor stove for use as a rest
ing-place for utensils when
omelets, griddle cakes, etc., are
made. It should be covered
with zinc.
Rub black walnut furniture,
or any wood finished in oil,
with a cloth slightly moistened
with kerosene oil, to remove
scratches and restore polish.
Cut down the supply of cat
tle is the cry, and prices will
advance. Certainly if there
were no cattle in the country a
well-fatted steer would be
worth a small fortune. But
what good would that do the
man who hadn’t the steer?
Good prices where there are
cattle to sell is what we want.

I am prepared to verify the
itatement of the Mississippi
schoolmaster in regard to the
winter weather of the years of
1542 43. Was at that time a
resident of Williamson county,
Tenn. The winter 0f1542 43
was exceedingly mild and al
most pleasant as tiie past sea-
bon ha? been. The 14th ami
151 h days of March, 1843, a
snow fell, covering tlie earth
eighteen inches in depth, A
portion of this snow remained
; i the hollows an 1 ravines un
til the first of April. Aboi t
j fhe time the inclement weath
er was abating, a very large
and beautiful comet was visible
Perhaps some of the readers of
this paper, who noticed the
comet, may recall the magnifi
cent sight if presented, and in
so doing refresh their memory
of those two years so striking
ly similar to the past season. S.
Harry Phiuizy has announc
ed himself as a candidate for
represe itative of Clark county.
The prospects are good for a
prohibition election in Atlanta
soon.
Bio. Bhapman of the Wash
ington (Ga.) Gazette, has put
out Hon. F. 11. Colley for con
gress in the Bth district. There
is no man in Georgia whom I
would rather see go to congress
than Mr. Colley.
Those of you who archest
acquainted with the world, or
who have read most extensive
ly the histories of men, will
allow that in the formation of
character, the most telling in
lluenee is the early homo. It
is that home which often in
boyhood has formed before
hand our most famous echo!
ars, our most celebrated he
roes, our must denoted mission
aries; and even when men have
grown up reckless and repro
bate, and have broken all rs
straints, human and divine, the
last anchor which has dragged,
the last cable they have been
able to snap, is the memory
which moored them to a virtu
ous home. See.
I would like 10 tell mothers
of a nice—keepsake that I am
making for each one of my lit
tle girls. Ihe day they were
one year old I laid their little
hands on a sheet of writing pa
per—with fingers open—and
maked all around with a pen
cil. I then cutout just the
size it was marked, and wrpte
on the paper hand the name
and date of birth. Then I took
a lock of hair from the head,
braided it nicely, and tacked it
on the thumb, with present
date under it. At the next
birthday place lock on the first
finger, with date, etc. When
they are six years old, turn and
begin on the other side. Some
will say, “That is too much
trouble.” But it takes only a
few minutes at each time, and
I think when they reach wo
manhood they will be glad to
look back to days when such a
tiny space inclosed their hand,
and see the difference in the
color and length of their silken
locks at each birthday.—The
Household.
Why is it that the pseudo-re
ligious novel has so many more
readers ’than Hie one which
tells of hearty surrender to
Christ? Perhaps because the
Gospel makes such a tremen
dous claim on a man, snd per
haps because the happiness of
religion has not been sufficient
ly emphasized. Perhaps, also,
because sotno of us caricature
the Christ unconseiousiv. and
contrive to represent- him as
unlovely as ourselves. We re
member being taught the duty
of loving God in connection
with such a perverted concep
tion of His being that we felt
to love Him was impossible.
We need the truth, and the
truth will make us free. From
all mistakes of head and heart,
good Lord, deliver us.
I This seems to be an age ol
dii uni.-sty. It may bo that if
is so in appearance more than
in fact, when compared With
former times, and that this im
prt - ion is caused by the great,
er publicity given to the lives
of public and private individu
als, but whether it is a time of
special dishonesty or not, one
tiling is certain, it is more com
mon tliun it should be, and
there is pressing and immedi
ate need of reform in this re
spect. Hie tendency of the in
lluenceof the speculation and
peculation, of the short cuts to
wealth in business transactions
can only be to impress upon
the minds of youths who are
just entering upon their life’s
work, that the ways of hones
ty are too slow and old-fashion
ed to suit these limes, and that
he who succeeds must not be
too conscientious; hut it is not
to the general need of a firm
adherence to the principles of
sterling honesty that I desire
to call attention. There is
need enough of that, but the
greatest need is to establish
these principles, and to have
them lived bv all.

“I'm goin’ to be a soldier,
inn, when I grow up,” said B ib
by, as he crawled into bed,
“and fight in wars and battles.”
“All right, Bobby; now goto
sleep.”
In the morning she shook
him for the fourth time and
said:
“Bobbjq you must get up;
the idea of a soldier lying in
bed at this hour!”
“Well, Ma,” said Bobby,
‘ I've changed my mind about
being a soldier.”
The people of tins countryhave
but a faint conception of the
oppressive land, monopolies of
Great Britan It is said tha
less than 3,000 persons own
half tiie land ot the kingdom
These favored few, not know
ing what to do with their vast
lauded estates, simply do noth
ing with them, and prevent
other people who would gladly
make good use of them from
doing anything with these
lands. We are Lold that at least
100,000,000 acres in that coun
try are preserved for sport and
rendered useless. To make
matters worse for those who do
not belong to the aristocracy,
the property laws under which
they live were made two hun
dred years ago, and the land
lords wlio puy their taxes oil
this ancient valuation, on'.v
pay about one million where
tiiey ought in justice to pay fol
ly millions annually. Other
classes are compelled to make
up this deficiency. This is th
wicked policy which keeps
poor men poor, and enab'es
landlords to hold for useless
pleasure and pride such vast es
tales. The laws of our own
country regulating the owner
ship of property and the distri
bution of taxes are equal aid
just, and, compared witii those
of England, are exceedingly
advantageous to the industri
ous poor.

A little girl aged three, in
formed her mother that she
knew a beautiful story sbeut a
giant. “Would you like to
hear it, mamma?” asked she.
“Well, then,” she continued}
“once there was a great big ug
ly giant, and be was very loud
of eating lit tie girls. One day
as he was walking along
through the woods, he met two
little girls—one very good lit
tle girl, and one very naughty
one.
“First he took a bite of the
good little girl, and he made
up a horrid face, and said she
tasted awful nasty; then he
took a taste of the bad little
girl, and lie smacked his lips
and said the tasted dreadful
nice, ’cause you see, mamma,
she had eaten nuts and raisins
and candy when her mother
told her not to, and that made
her taste sweet. T ien (lie old
giant sai l, ‘l’ll never again eat
a good little girl. I'll always
eat the bad ones.”
All good citizois look with
favor on every wisely planned
movement vvhii h proposes to
protect and rescue the boys of
the country from evil ways.
The criminal classes a:e recruit
ed from the boys of the streets,
who grow up in slums and hov
els amid vicious associalions
If they could be removed from
these surroundings, or if places
could be provided where they
might spend a part of their
time under wholesome influ
ences, so neihing would be
gained. Thousands of these
young barbarians have never
had a fair chance. Their homes
repel them, their poverty
tempts them to commit crime
at an early age, and t lie pris
ons where they are punished
for their offenses contribute
largely to confirm their vicious
tendencies. The conditions of
their lives are calculated to pro
duce criminals.
Every Day a Little.
Every day a little knowledge.
One fact in a day, Ilow small
is one fact? Only one. Ten
years pass by. Three thous
and six hundred and fifty facts
are not a small thing.
Every day a little self denial.
The thing that is difficult io do
to-day will be an easy thing to
do three hundred and sixty
days hence, if each day it shall
have been repi ate 1. What
power of self mastery shall he
enjoy who, looking to God for
grace, seeks every day to prac
tice the grace he pays for?
Every day a little helpful
ness. We live for the good of
others, if our living be any
sense a tine living. It is not
in great deeds of kindness only
that the blessing is found. In
“little deeds of kindness,” re
peated every day, we find true
happiness. At home, at school,
in the street, in the neighbor’s
house, in the playground, we
shall find opportunity every
day for uselulness.
