Then again the hardest thing for many men to learn, in handling either poultry or bees, is gentleness. How many times we have seen boys, and men with no more sense than boys, jerk hens roughly from their nests, enter the poultry-house abruptly and frighten the occupants till they rush in a fluttering mass into the farthest corner and keep the com munity in constant agitation and distress. But all domestic animals appreciate the manners of woman attendants when they are fortunate ehought to be cared for by them. Nqvr that there are women garden ers and florists who by commenda ble industry and business qualities have risen to eminence in those call ings, and while one of the most sue cessful bee-keepers in the whole country is a woman, we hope to see others poultry more attention than it has hitherto received. Aside from profit, the keeping of fine poul try for fancy is an elegant- pastime very popular with English ladies, and we see no reason why the fashion should not be adopted here. To Fry Fish Well.—Have the fish well scalded, washed and drain ed, cat slashes in the sides of each, season them with salt and pepper, and. roll them in cor 4 flour, have in your frying pan hot lard or bacon drippings, dip them in, egg before rolling them in corn flonr to keep them from breaking.

His lectures have been received with marked success lit New England, os a few selected notices wil show: WHAT THEY SAY OF “SMOKE.” It was a keen and humorous exposure of the “Shamaud Show” oflife. His description of the peculiarities of some Smoky men elicited bursts of langbter and applause. He was funny and instruc tive both.— Boston TrOhtcript. It was a humorous lecture illustrated by an abundance of witty and satirical anecdotes, exhib iting the very superior descriptive powers of the speaker, and showed In well defined style the value of the real and true,— Abington Standard. The lecture was received with langbter and ap plause, as it revealed clouds of “Smoke" where most people seldom look for &to.—Somerville Journal. The feast of reason and flow of soul produced such laughter and applause that it is confidently believed that certain dyspeptics in tbe audience were permanently cured. Fast young men, ex tremely fashionable young ladies, old logy preach ers, intriguing politicians, spread eaele orators and various other personages would best avoid hearing this lecture if they are afraid of sensible criticism. —Barnstable Hxtriot.
