To his alarm he found that during the night she had escaped, just where no one knew. He at once role back to her hut and found her sitting by the cold fire place, her head bowed in her hands. Mie was dead. He stoo l regarding her with sad ees. The plunging of a horse, the jingle of sleigh-l-ells outside broke in upon bis reverie, tilanciiif through the open door he saw a light sleigh, drawn by two dripping horses, and the driver al ready blanketing them. Somebody springing lightly from the vehicle in side the d.Hr confronted him. A woman richly and warmly dressed, a womau w ho. half laughing, threw up her veil and disclosed a dark, bright face, whose lieauty, heightened by the frosty air and excitement, seemed to till the dusky room with glow and warmth; a woman in the prime of woman's richest maturity a woman to whom John Kaudolph had given all bis life's love, and from whom he shrunk in loathing.

Mrs. Y. is a brilliant Hoston woman of abundant executive ability, shrewd wit and delightful hospitality. The exigencies of her busbaud's business led to the keeping up of an establish ment in the West, where Mrs. Y. passes some months of the year and where she entertains a great many people. One day there was brought to Mrs. Y. the card of an Knglish gentleman, accom panied by a letter of introduction from friends of the Y's abroad. The hostess went down stairs aud greeted the guest cordially. "We are so accustomed to travelers here," she said, "that we know just w hat to do with them. We expect everybody to arrive travel-stained and exhausted and we let everybody take a bath the first thing. I spoke to the servant before I came down aud every thing is all ready." "Uut," stammered the stranger, "I cannot think of putting you to so much trouble. 1 " "Oil, I know ju.st how you feel," in terrupted Mrs. Y. "A bath is the only thing tliat restores me to my nor mal condition when I've been travel ing, and you have come right through from lionton." The guest demurred, but Mrs. Y. was too executive and too truly hospi table to allow his scruples to prevent the carrying out of her kindly intent. The Knglishman was shown up stairs to the bath room, w here it is to be pre sumed he combined with the progress of his toilet reflections uoii the orig inality and practicability of American hospitality. In due time the guest descended again to tlie parlor, where J Irs. Y. awaited him. "I hoje you found everything to your liiiu 1," she said. "Oh, yes," he replied, "I have had a delightful bath; and now 1 must bid you good afternoon, as I have to catch a tram." "What!" cried the hostess aghast. "You are not going?" "L'ufortuualely i must. I only Mop ped over a train to call on you." "Mercy''' she exclaimed in disiuav. j "I thought you bad come to remain. i Vrm rarlainlv j-urnmt itii -ii&-iv u-lieit I haven t seen you at air ' "I really must," was tiie reply, "but I assure you that I have had a most re freshing bath and I shall always re member with sinctre pleasure your un ique hospitality." The story w as too good to keep, and Mr. Y. told it at her own exense, great! to the entertainment of hei fiiend-s, who declared that this fashion of entertaining callers was one which deserved to be widely introduced, as it would solve many a perplexing questiot. of the proper method of disposing ol guests who were not easy to amuse. In Washington's la. Fashion, in the matter of dress at the sea-side, was as txiijeo.nt then as it is now at a tashionabie watering-place. ami the following advice to gentlemen is given in the London Cnontc', Au gust lti-l-i, FiST: "For the morning provide yourself with a very large round hat. This will preserve vom face from the sun and wind, both ol which are very prejudical to the com plexion. Let your hair be well filled with pomatum, powder and bear' grca.se, and tuck it under your hat. Have an enormous chitterlin to youi shirt, the broader the better; aud pull it up to look as like the pouter pigeon as you possibly can. "A white waistcoat without skirU and a coat wit'.: a collar up to your ears will do for an early hour; and, if they say your head looks like that of Johu the liaptist in a charger, tell them yoii are not ashamed to look like an Apos'tle, whatever they are. Your first appear ance must be in red morocco slinuer' with yellow heels; your second in shoet with the Vandyke tie; your third in Cordovan boots, with very long row elec" spurs, which are very useful to walk in, for, if you tear a lady's apron, il gives you a good opportunity of show ing how gracefully you can ask pardon Your fourth dress must be the three cornered hat, the I'arls pump and tut -vriois oucKie." Strange Household 1'ets. A strange bequest and a strange household pet was that which nij friend's father received from his grand mother. It was a land turtle that slit had cared for and petted for forty years It had the range of the house, answerer, to its name lau, would come after lU food and eat it out of the hand. Wher ready to take his long winter sleep Dar would peck at the bureau, when hi: mistress would wrap him in flannel; and tuck him away in a draw, when ue remained uormant until spring lan lived tve years with the leiratee and when he died an alligator took iti place. The latter thrives and is at tenderly cared for as a pet canary, oi ocoicu terrier would be.

It is tru that they do not give utterance to theii opinions in words, but they communi cate them satisfactorily to themselves, and carry on their arguments with energy, conveying applause by load and incessant handclapping and expressing disapproval by signs and noises as graphically as they could by word of mouth. t t pointed out by Dr. K. Henmann that if sulphur is heated on a plate of metal or porcelain its vapors In the dark give off a phosphorescent light. The fUme is pale, scarcely bluish, and very different from the One blue flame given by the combustion of sulphur at higher temperatures. In place of sul-phurous-acld gas, the phosphorescent sulphur emits vapor having an odoi which recalls at once that ot hydrogen bisulphide, of camphor, and ozone.

The story was too good to keep and Mrs. Y. told it at her own expense. A Wonderful Meteor. A celestial phenomenon, which rivah anything in the way of a meteoric fall on record, occurred at Augusta, Me., on the evening of "-September 16th, at about 8 o'clock. People in that section who were out of doors were surprised to see the heavens illuminated as by light ning save that the light was of a bluish tint. As it was starlight, many thought it was the discharge of fireworks, and forgot all about it. Tne next morning, however, after the arrival of trains from the east, reports were circulated that an immense meteor, larger than a railroad freight car, liad fallen on the land of the Xew Brunswick railroad six miles from Vaneeboro, the termina tion of the Maine Central, on the line between the province and that Suite. Conductor Robert Kims, who was at Vaneeboro, reports that the stoue is buried deeply in the ground aud pro jects 10i feet into the air. It is of the color of burnt rock. When it fell it was very hot. So intense was the heat that people who approached to within 50 feet were driven away. Trainmen from St. Johns, Calais and points along the w Brunswick railway, also saw the illumination. McAdam Junction has a depot in which is a dining-roora. Vhen the stone struck the jar was plainly felt, dishes being shaken from shelves. As the heat prevents a close examination of the meteor, parties have to be content with viewing it from a distance. 'o damige was done. The extraordinary weight of this meteor makes the event one of great interest. The fact that it was seen in this city, 200 miles away, causing a brilliant il lumination, attests its immense size. A concentrated solution of bichromate of potash and glue, makes, it is said, a cement for repairing articles ot broken glass which will resist boiling water. The cement is first carefully applied to the aurrace, and after the fractured parts are brought together the whole it exposed to the action of the sun.

CAEZrCL TBAXSPLAXTT!ra. -In orcnardinz.caref ui planting and proper preparation of the soil are to be relied on as leading to ultimata success; thor ough work in these are necessary to in sure abundant returns and rewards. This, probably, was not so essential in the early practice of pomology in this country. - Then we bad a climate much more moist and the elements, of plant food and fruiting abundant almost to excess. Nurseries were few and limi ted in extent; seedlings were the main reliance, and the planter had only to use bis mattock in digging and prepar ing shallow places for the trees. . llis young trees were taken from one place and immediately planted in another, or tbey grew np accidentally anywhere and received such shallow cultivation as was then practiced, not only for trees, but for the cereal and other crops. The trees raised in this way were both healthy and vigorous, and many at tuned great size and great age. They were generally set near buildings, where they also had the advantage of tae extra food that abounds about farm bouses. Thus we see the change of climate, and other circumstances at tending the opening of the country and gradual exhaustion cf the virgin soil, force as to manure and prepare the soil ia the best manner, so as to secure humus and moisture and give our trees the food nature intended for them. Farm Management. 2o fixed rules can be laid down for the mana-f s ment for farms. The soil of one town ship may be best fitted for growing some kinds of gram, while the adjoin ing ones can be most profitably devoted to live stock. No two farms situated side by side are exactly alike. Too dis tance from market, the demand for special products, and, not the least, the individual taste of the faiuer,have all much weight In determining the system of farm management that it is best to adopt. Those who have given the most thought to this subject are the slowest to advise any general system to be applied to every farm. It is like a garment that is intended to fit all per sons and suit none. Kvery year of pro gress made In agricultural knowledge teaches more forcibly than previous ones the truth that a farmer must rely much upon his own intelligence and Judgment in working out the best sys tem for his own farm. Even in so seemingly trifliDg a matter as the pruning of a grape vine, the wisest vineyardist can only give general rules, aud each grape grower must adapt them to the peculiarities of each vine. Xew comers to this country are apt to bring fieir old home prejudices with them and to think they have nothing to learn, but, ou the contrary, can teach the natives something. Such an idea occurred to a Scotch farmer last year, who, against advice and warning, persisted in planting his crop of pota toes in high ridges. This is a good plan la Scotland, where the fields are often under water for days successive ly, and helps to keep the crop oat of the wet. But in our dry climate these raised ridges dry right through; a shower runs down the dry slopes with out moistening them, and the potatoes never get past their early stage or larger than hickory nuts. Flat cultivation and deep planting are necessary here, and old American farmers may do well to consider this fact, which applies equally to corn, as well as new comers who are uot to our manner born. The most money to be derived from sheep keeping is by raising mutton and wool together. A lamb that will bring (5 returns seven times as much profit as one calf can do;and seven 2 J-month-old wethers that bring $40 to $50 will pay twice as well as a cow or s;eer at that price, excluding the value of the wool. As regards mutton, there can be no competition against the farmers, as there is with beef, for mutton Is essentially a farm product. The oat crop is too generally treated as of little consequence and often sown late on land not regarded as fit for any thing else. So long as this practice prevails the average yield aud profit is likely to be very small. The fact that in many places oats are mainiy fed to stock leads to this neglect. Tuey are not the crop on which the farmer relies to raise money to pay hired help or to clear off mortgages. But those who give oats good treatment find that the crop is as responsive to good cu'ture and manure as any other. A Westeux farmer says a common mistake is turning cows into a pasture in the early spring, before there is a sufficient supply of grass. In their search for better cropping they pack the still and destroy much grass. After there Is a supply of grass c ire must be taken to allow only a limited range at first. English farmers think that ensilage may be preserved by being pressed very compactly into bales. They state that in Belgium it is customary to bale it. The outer portions of the bale, however.become silghtly injured, which may be avoided by using straw for an outer covering, which may be also pressed with the ensilage. Farmers would find it to their ad vantage to corn mutton in a weak brine for home consumpton. The hams can be smoked and used like dried beef, or they can be boiled. The corned mutton will be found an agree able change from sausage and spare rib. Stagnant water on the farm will not only injure the crops, but will breed disease. Many cases of diphtheria, typhoid fever, etc., may be traced to a want of nnderdrainage. Cows drink ing such water cannot give milk pure in quality. All low places upon which water will collect should receive atten tion. Thk hoe and cultivator are the lead ing implements for corn cultivation which are not likely to be superseded. Keep them running until the crop is ready to be "laid by." It may not be agreeable, at all times, to have hens runniug at large, but it is their nature, and with the exercise they get, and the variety of food, the produc tion of eggs is usually much increased. Experience teaches that the earlier in au animal's age full feeding is resor ted to the better It is, both for its vigorous health and rapid growth. Tans will the best returns be secured, whether the animal be intended for early sale or for raising. Vienna JJent IPoo-J, so popular as furniture for offices and sitting-rooms, is, as is well known, prepared by being steamed for taking the required shape. The opposite use is suggested for a steam process to take oat dents or bruises in furniture. It is recom mended to wet the part with warm water; doable a piece ot brown paper five or six times, soak it and lay it on the place; apply on that a hot flatlron until the moisture Is evaporated. If the dent ia not gone repeat the process. After two or three applications the lent will be raised level with the sur face. Life Is a abort day, bat it ia a work fee day. Demon Cake.

Sift tbe flour and cream of tartar together. Beat the sugar into tbe eggs, and add the season ing and flour, stirring quickly and light ly. Beat until ready to put the mixture in tbe oven. Use a pan that has little, legs at the top corners, so that when tbe pan is turned upside down on the table, after the baking, a currant of air will pass under and over it. Bake for 40 minutes in a moderate oven. Do not grease tbe pan. Cutlets with Mushrooms. Fry nicely some veal cutlets seasoned wi.h pepper and salt and dressed with beaten egg and bread crumbs. Cook previous ly a sauce made of bits ot veal, a car rot, a little onion, some parsley and sweet herbs and pepper and salt. Let these things boil for an hour with a pint of stock, strain, add a tablespoonfui of butter and one of flour to thicken. Simmer two dozen fresh or canned mushrooms in this sauce until done, add a few drops of lemon juice and serve on a platter with the cutlets ar ranged in a circle around them. Kick Cake. One cupful of butter, two of suttar. two and one-fourth of rice flour, six eggs the juice and rind of a lemon. Beat tbe butter to a cream; then gradually beat in the sugar and add the lemon. Beat the yolks and whites separately, and add them to the beaten sugar and butter. Add also the rice flour. Four into a shallow pan to the depth of about two incbes. Bake from 35 to 40 minutes in a moderate oven. Gold Cake. One cupful of sugar, half a cupful of butter, tbe yolks of three eggs and one whole egg, half a capful of milk, one-fourth of a tea spoonful each of soda and cream of tar tar, one and three-fourth cupfuls of flour. Mix the butter and sugar to gether and add the eggs, milk, flavor and flour, in the order named. Bake tbe same as the silver cake. A white frosting is good with this cake. Flesh Color and Gray combined, are the new tints iu room furnishing. For wall papers and ceilings, in furni ture covers of plain linens, or in earth enware or stoneware for tbe mantel shelf these two cool tones combine well. Even gray '''flax" dresses are made up with flesh-colored lace. 2L P. Delahaye has instituted a comparison ot the relative merits of compressed air and electricity as a motive force for machines in mines. For long distances he says the latter has the advantage, and the plant re quired and the expense of maintenance are lev than Ui tbe case of compressed air. In the coal mines of Zankerode andOppel, in Saxony, electricity has for some time been employed to work a ventilating fan and draw trains of coal. The fan is distant from tbe machine which generates the electricity about 2,500 feet, and there is an available force of 49 per cent To work the electric locomotive 3T per cent, is found to be utilized, although the gen era tor ot the electricity, in this in stance, ia 3,000 feet away. A Sad Case. "What makes you look so solemn?" whispered a fashion able lady to another in church just be fore the services began. "I've got good reason to be mad." was the response. "What is it? " "I dressed myself up in this new suit I ordered from New York and went to church to show it off." "Well, what of it?" asked the other party. "Our clock was a whole hour fast, and I bad to sit and sit in that empty church without any body to see my new clothes, and tbey are so becom ing to my complexion; there was nobody to pee them for a whole hour, and I might just as well have had no clothes on at all; it made me so mad that " "The Lord Is in His holy temple, let all tbe earth keep silence before Him," was tbe opening remark of the preacher, and the rest of the conversation wai lost to the reporter. Must be Put Down. Just after tbe receut election a gentleman was waited on by a worthy deacon who lives less than a hundred miles from Tusket, N. S. He wanted to see about putting down bribery and corruption, and he said: "My dear sir, we must arise" in our wrath; we must stand shoulder to shoulder and foot to foot; we must choke this hydra-beaded monster, or It will choke us, etc" His friend didn't think there was any bribery; could not believe it possible; thought the deacon must be mistaken. But tbe deacon said: "Sir, I know it; I know it. I offered one infernal scoundrel $3 to vote for our man, and the mean, de graded vagabond held up both bands and said he wanted $10, and co-aid get it, too, from the other side. I tell you, sir, it is frightful! Ten dollars! Yes, sir, it has got to be put down," What Constitutes a Great Ac tor. They were talking about a star actor tbey had just been to see, when they walked into the cigar store to have a cigar. The cigar man was listening. "1 don't see that he's much of an actor," said one. "I don't think he's an actor at all. The way he's advertised you'd think he was a great artist." "Is it you're talking about?" asked tbe cigar man. "Yes; we've just been to see him." "' And you think he ain't an actor?" "That's about it." "An actor! Y'ou bet he's an actor. He's a great actor! He's got f 29.00J.

Address, World's Dipen.sary Medical Association, 603 Main Street, 11 ul lalo, X. y. Omaha Boy (in New York) "What are all those men rushing into that place for?" New York Boy "That's a bucket shop." "What's that?" "They buy and sell stocks there on margins same as they do in tbe Ex change." Oh! It's another Exchange, eh?" "No, it's a bucket shop." "Well, how do you tell tbe differ ence?" "Why, one is in a great big building and tbe other in a little bit of a one." In a good old Western Massachu setts town lives a doctor who has buried four wives. When number four was a bride of a few days she went with ber oldest step-daughter into tbe attic to find an ironing-board. Seeing a board that she thought would answer her pur pose nicely, she was about to take it, when the daughter exclaimed: Oh, don't take that, for that- is what father uses to lay out his wives on!" Omaha child (passing a cigar store sign) "Oh, mammy, what a tunuy man!" Mamma "That is Tunch.' " "'That's a funny name, too. but isn't he dressed funny? It's bis wife's dress, I guess, an he's got it on wrong. "His wife's?" "Yes, he's got the bustle way np on his shoulder." Almost a Panic. A "There came very uear being a panic at the theatre last night." B "Ah, indeed?" "Yes, some fool called out fire, and as the theatre was crowded aud there was a strong smell of smoke, there would have been a fearful catastrophe, but fortunately, just as the audience was about to rush for the door, the ballet dancers came out on tbe stage, and every man in tbe audience took his seat and levelled his opera-glass. This restored conlidence, and tbe panic was averted." "The doctor said he'd put me on my feet again in two weeks." "Well, didn't be do it?" "He did. indeed; I had to sell my horse and buggy to foot his bill." "And you have been footing it ever since?" "'Precisely." Unlike other cathartics, Dr. Pierce's "Pellets" do not render the bowels costive after operation, but, on the contrary, es tablish a permanently healthy action. Being entirely vegetable, no particular care is re quired while using them. By druggists. Boil ripe currants six minutes; amount ot sugar used to a quart eight ounces.

"Yes, it looks very nice." sai 1 Tom my, "and It wouldn't be a bit too big for our family if it wasn't for pa and the children." , 2c William James cf Harvard Uni versity, has made some experiments to test the modern theory that the semi circular canals, instead of being con nected with the seuse of bearing, serve to convey the feeling cf movement of the head through space, which, when intensified, becomes dizziness. It occurred to hi in that deaf mutes, having their auricular organs injured, might afford some corroboration f the thewry, if it were true, by showing a smaller susceptibility to dizziness than persons with normal hearing. Of 5m deaf mutes examined by subjecting them to rapid whirling, 1S1 were wholly insusceptible of being made dizzy, 131 were made dizzy in a very slight degree, and 19J were normally, and in a few c;.ses abnormally, sensitive. Nearly 200 students and instructors in Haivtrd College supposed to iiava normal hear ing, were examined for purpose of comparison, aud but a single one proved exempt from vertigo. T7 death is announced of the cele brated geologist Ferdinand V. Hoch stetter. He was born iu Wuiteiubutg in 1829. and became connected with tbe Im-ierial Geologist-he Reichsansult in lb53.

Dr. Ciuston, iu the annual reiiort of the Edinburgh Insane Asylum, says that iu very acute cases of depression and maniacal exhaustion be has substituted milk and eggs for stimulants with re markable success. A bad case of acute delirium was cured by a diet of four quarts of milk aud sixteen eggs daily for three mouths. He says: "1 preach the gospel of fatness as the great anti dote to the diseases we have to treat."
