JOB SHARPE'S EXPERIENCE IN
HOUSEKEEPING FOR ONE,DAY,
'Well Carrie, my dear, What's • the
matter with'you ?' queried Mr. Job
Sharpe hastening, one chilly night in
October into the cheerful supper-room
and seeing Ills wife reclining on a
lounge that was drawn up before the
fire, looking pale and-fatigued.
'Nothing, dear, save a slight head
ache occasioned, I suppose, by work
ing in that damp kitchen to-day; the
water pipes leak so badly,' said Car
rie with a weary sigh.
'Why, *here's Bridget ?' said Job
testily.
'I gave her permission to go to see
some friends lately arrived from the
'old country,' as she plainly intimated
that if I did not let her go she would
leave us.. 'She is a good;faitbful girl,
and help is scarce in this town, so I
thought I'd let her go for a couple
days;' answered Carrie in -a deprecat
itirtto O'd '76 treo" Witte Ired'tli VO.OO
gathering on Job's brow.
'That's alwayd the way with yon,'
snarled he; 'you indulge and spoil
every girl you get, by'granting them
such privileges, and at any rate I
don't see the use of keeping a hired
girl at all, as there's only the three
young ones you and I to see after and
how many women of ordinary capac
ity you can see do the work of a fam
ily twice as large.!
'Lou should have thought of that
in time, Mr. Sharpe, and married a
general house-worker instead of me,'
retorted Carrie hotly, as the matri•
menial thermometer gave the sign--
a light rod streak on Carries Tore
head—of an approaching storm. Job
knew the symptoms by experience,
so that be said in a mollifying tone :
'Now I don't profess to be posted
in house keeping, but for the life of
me, I con't see bow women can man
age to spend so much time in doing
what I know I could do in half the
time.'

child.
Carrie's foot was beating a tattoo,
but came down with a decided stamp,
which sounded omnious to Job, for ho
knew if she once becamo angry at
him, she would not speak a word to
him in a month, besides inflicting
many other annoyances in the shape
of buttonless shirts and undarned
stockings, not to speak of having to
do his own cravat.
`l'll tell you what I'll do Carrie,'
said he briskly, have nothing of
much i mportan cot° attend to to-mor
row, and I'll- wager you that set of
mosaics you have been coaxing me to
buy, that I will take charge of the
house and children; do' all the work,
have half the time to spare, while you
can go- to your aunt Jerusba's and
corns home to dinner at four o'clock,
and bring your aunt with you, for I
want to make her acquaintance.'
'I accept your wager, and to aid
you, I'll leave a list of duties for your
especial benefit,' said Carrie, trying
to look unconeerned,putting her hand
to her head as if to allay the pain
there, but in reality to hide a smile
of exultation, for. she felt as if the
mosaics were already in her posses
sion, knowing that of all men Job
should be the last to make such an
attempt, As ho had not the most re
mote idea of practical housekeeping.
But, he, with the characteristic con
ceit of his sex, imagined he was going
to impart to his wife an ever-to-ha-re
membered example. The sequel will
show. next morning, before
the sun peeped over the blue hills,
Carrie hurried to the back stand, and
after an hour's drive, was sat down a
short distance from her destination,
for she wished to surprise her aunt,
whom she bad not seen for a long
while. As she neared the old red
barn-house she caught a glimpse of
that dear old lady standing in the
midst of a great squad of turkies,
geese,-ducks and chickens, who ren•
dered the morning air harmonious
with their dulcet strains, each bela
boring the other for the. stuff. she
threw from her apron, and some more

ed a pair of cast-off unmentionables,
an old dressing gown and a red smok
ing cap with great yellow tassel relics
of his bachelorhood. Donning thee();
he sallied down to the kitchen, tak
ing with himy:his programme. •En.
tering, he felt Ake a general scanning
a battle field wheron he would per
form exploits that would award glori
ous victory, or disastrous defeat,
though the latter he deemed impos
sible. Glancing at hi,s list, he found
the kitchen fife' the lever which set
the household Machinery in motion.
He seized the-poker, and, after a ter.
rible din, •,succeeded in getting it
ready forignitiOn. :He made every
effort to light it without success, and
volume after volume of stinging
smoke and soot relied .out, settling on
his thee and spotting it =most
fuily, «{ e
ed hiM to them iigorMislY, and
the moisture coming from them com•
hiving with the soot, left a great black
ring around them, giving him a most
villainous look. He.,threw up the
windows to let the smoke paSs 'out;
wondering' Why Carrie had
.nevertold
him that the chimney smoked and
the woodbouse leaked, thotigh she
bad told him of it repeatedly. He
made another attempt and succeeded
in a measure; and then put on the
kettle for breakfast, and a pot to heat
water to mix the bread.: When it be
came Warm, ho kneaded the bread,
though full '.of hatter sufficient to
make bread enough to last at least a
month; and after rubbing his hands
out of the flour saw that Were
all black, having forgotten to wash
them after lighting the fire; which
had now gone oat again. Job began
to mutter something, not loud, but
deep, and gave the - range- some sav
age cieks-and thtirsts with the poker.
His third attempt was worse than
those preceeding, and as he knelt
down and puffed wind into the grate,
it responded with dense puffs out, and
at length seemed bent on a coup de
grace, and as Job opened his- mouth
to give another puff, out came smoke
and flame singeing his petted mus.
tachois and causing him to retreat
precipitately baCkward. Treading On
his gown he lost his equilibrium and
fell square into the- bread trough.—
There he sat . watching the billows of
baiter rising on each side of hini with
a look marimas might have worn
when gazing on the rnins of Carthage
—a look of profound Melancholy.—
Alas ; poor Job ! this is but the shad.

himself up and tried to shake off the
batter, but like aunt Jemima's plaster,
it showed a loving tendency to stick
the faster.
Ile jerked off the gown and hung
it on a nail, and began to scrape off
the dough energetically, but while
thus engaged ho, Was startled by a
slight rustle behind him,

As for Miss Mild may and Mr. Bur

'that she felt such a thrilling interest
in Mr. Burrows since he rescued her
from the yawning chasm (as she
chose to call the cellar, which is too
commonplace) that ho really was e
qual to all the heroes she had ever
read about and put her so much In
mind of the scottish chief—Sir Wil
liam Wallace 1' He made his advan.
cos steadily into Milly's affections,
pies and puddings, and after serena
ding her to her great delight, and ap
preciation, [but to the infinite annoy
ance of the whole neighborhood,] ho
became. the 'star of her destiny'
which ho ruled with no gentle hand,
so Milly's gossipping days are over.
Moving a. Post-bole.
The following experience in fence
building of a gentleman farmer at
Steubenville, Ohio, is given in the
editor's Drawer of harper's liffiga
zine: •
7:le-.lMvery exact man, and, as is
ten` case with such, irritable.—
W 44111101 quite a fine farm about a
rano fr*. town part of which,. along
thp.,cgt4 . l tVal*!o?y, open.;—
Ire co • n'cluded to fence it in, and hired
a datehman to assist in the work.—
Accordingly he went out and mark
ed the - place where every post-hole
was to be dug, BO that their might
be no mistake. In a day or two the
Dutchman informed him that every
thing was ready for setting the posts.
For a distance of some two hundred
yards or more the holes all appeared
to be dug in the exact spot indicated;
but suddnly they came
_upon one
that was three or four feet out of the
line, and what made the blunder
more aggravating was, that the orig
inal mark was still in the place where
the hole should have been, plainly to
be seen.
The old gentleman broke ont in a
tirade of indignation against the
Dutchman. 'You fool, you! what in
the name of common sense did you
dig that hole way out there for ?' etc.
Ris anger, however, appeared to
make no impression whatever upon
the brawny Dutchman, who walked
round and round the hole, gazing at
it with apparently the most amazing
astonishment, and at last broke out
with, 'Yell, I vOuld shoost like to
know who moved dat post-hole out
from de place vere I puts him l'
The anger of the Dutchman's em
ployer vanished in an instant; and
the old gentleman, when telling this
story himself, was accustomed to say
that be felt perfectly satisfied when
the Dutchman assured him that he
could easily-move the post-hole back.
