Think of this, girls, and when your mother urges you as I think nearly all mothers do; I know mine did to acquire some knowledge of tho wonderful nrt of baking good bread and preparing a nourishing diet, do not refuse to follow her advice. Bear in mind that a lack of these qualifications on the part of the wife has been the cause of much domestic difficulty. Apropos of "domestic difficulty," I am tempted to add a few words to the young men, for some of them may accidentally read this little article. It is this If you marry, try and appreciate your wife's first effort to keep house. Don't misunderstand me.

I mean, show your appreciation, not only by a deep, inward satisfaction which is not discernible to the naked eye, bu by word of mouth. Don't be afraid to say right out in good, plain English that you are pleased. Remember that a little praise from the husband will go far toward resting a tired wife, and if she strives to "do her best, give her credit for it. Never forget that it takes practice to make perfect. If she makes biscuit for tea and they don't turn out as light and flaky as your mother's used to be, just take my advice and don't say so, unless you want to entirely diseourago her, and make her think that life and housekeeping are burdens too heavy to bear.

There is only one course for y.ou to pursue. Eat at least 0110 of the 'is-cuits, then praise them. Say they are delicious and call her your darling. Don't foiget all the old pet names just because your sweetheart is now your wife. Tell her the biscuits 'are even better than those your mother used to make.

Don't hesitate to say this simply because it isn't quite truthful. Such a prevarication will be readily overlooked, for it is in a good cause, and you may depend upon it your wifo will be very grateful for your good-natured remarks. She will see at a glance that the biscuits are not as they should be, but instead of feeling tired and discouraged and spoiling her Daniel A.

Burlington Independent Three cars of horses were shipjied from the Stone Barn in this city which wero purchased in this county by horse buyers from the east.

Saved by a Woman's Wit. After tho loss of Brooklyn Heights, Washington and Greene. were already aware that the city could not be held. Its capture whs very easily effected. Several ships of the lino ascended the Hudson as far as Bloomingdale, and the East River as far as Black-well's Island, says John l'isk in an article on "Washington's Great Campaign" in tho Atlantic Monthly; and while thus from either side these vessels swept the northern part of Manhattan with a furious fire, Gen.

Howe brought his army across from Brooklyn in boats and landed at Kipp's bay, near the present site of East Thirty-fourth street. Washington came promptly down with two New England brigades to re-enforce the men whom he had stationed at that point, and to hinder the landing of the enemy until Putnam should have time to evacuate the city. To Washington's wrath and disgust, these men were seized with panic and suddenly turned and fled without firing a shot. Had Howe now thrown his men promptly forward across tho line of Thirty-fourth street he would have cut off Putnam's retreat from the city. But what the New England brigades failed to do a bright woman succeeded in accomplishing.

When Howe had reached the spot known as Murray hill, now the center of much brown stone magnificence in Park and Madison and Fifth avenues, at that time a noble country farmstead, Mrs. Lindley Murray, mother of the famous grammarian, well knowing the easy temper of the British commander, sent out a servant to invite him to stop and take luncheon. A general halt was ordered, and while Howe and his officers were gracefully entertained for more than two hours by their accomplished and subtle hostess, Putnam hastily marched his 4,000 men up the shore of the Hudson, until, passing Bloomingdale, he touched tho right wing of the main army and was safe, though his tents, blankets and heavftguns had been left behind. Napoleon's Memory. A gentleman once said, in Wellington's presence, that great memories are generally the sign of great talent, and instanced Napoleon, who could single out soldiers in reviews and call them by name to step out of the ranks.

"This is a great mistake," replied the Duke. "I'll tell you how he managed it. One of his Generals, Loban, used to get ready for him a list of soldiers to be called out from each regiment. When Napoleon rode up opposite to a regiment he would call out the name of the soldier to be honored, and the man would step forward that was all. "I also doubt the goodness of his memory," continued the Duke, "from the looseness and iuaccuracy of his statements.

In his works I mean all that he lias ever written you never find a thing related precisely as it happened. He seems to have no clear nor distinct recollection; scarcely once has he ever tripped into truth!" In another conversation Wellington paid that Napoleon's genius made him so pre-eminent that all of his marshals seemed inferior to him. "He suited a French army exactly, and at their head there never was anything like him. I used to Ray of him that his presence on the field made the difference of forty thousand men." The devotion of the French army to Napoleon is illustrated by the fact that several of the French prisoners wounded at Waterloo, shouted during the agony of amputation: "Vive I' Em-pereur!"

placed. One may regain any other thing that is squandered save time. Once gone, it is gone for all eternity. No more important lesson can be given to the young than that on the value of time. It may be passed by unheeded, for on this subject more than any other men seem determined to learn by experience; but warnings should nevertheless be given, that there may be as early an awakening as may be to the irreparable loss of wasted time.

Even the best of men arrived at middle age are sure to have regrets for lost opportunities, for wasted time. Looking back with the knowledge gainei by experience, they can see how much better they might have ordered their lives if they had made the best possible use of their time. Such knowledge can not be expected in younger men. The time will come when they, too, will look back with regret but they should be given early warning from the experience of others, and be taught as well as may be that time is money, not in the vulgar sense, but in that higher one which represents money as merely a symbol of things that are good to have.

Rev. Lawrence is a growing man in the work in which he is engaged. The consideration shown by both Mrs. Cleveland and Mrs. Folsom to servants is a constant subject of grate, ful remark among them, says the New York Sun.

Neither lady ever gives an order. She asks to have her commission done. Nothing a servant evei does escapes the reward of a smile and a thank you. At the hotel where Mrs. Cleveland lives the servants are put to much work carrying cards and packages to her rooms, but never make complaint.
