Mrs. Lanark was mollified but not conâ€" verted. "Ah, Kate, times have changed since I was young." ‘‘For the worse," muttered the Judge. But his wile did not notice him. She went Mrs. Lanark looked up in some surprise and deprecation. It secmed a reflection on her educational care of her daughters. Isabel and Bertha smiled deristvely. Their look implied that they considered the thing ridieuluous. ‘‘The Judge caught Kate by the hand and cried "good !" "Ay," addod Kate. "I shall not consider my womanly accomplishments complete until I can, with my own hands, make a loaf of wheaten bread fit to be set before my father." «*Not quite" said Kate with a nod and n smile. "There is one more accomplishâ€" ment which I am determined to add to my list. Ilonged for it many times when I was at school, and I am led to long for it at many of the places I am forced to visit. I must learn to cook." To what!" exclaimed Mrs. Lanark. To cook ?" answered Isabel and Bertha in concert. _ "Of course," Mrs. Lanark continued, after Kate had taken her seat near her father, "you do not play as well as your sisters, but it will come to you by practice. I think I may say your necessary list of acâ€" complishments is full." The Judge had reared two sons and had sent them forth to active, useful life; but his daughters he had left to his wife. Judge Lanark was the father of these girls. He was a man of means, though not of large wealth. He had been a sucâ€" cossful lawyer, and was now upon the Bench ; his social position was of the high» estâ€"Govenors had been among his clients, and Senators looked to him for ccunsel and assistance. Isabel and Bertha, the other two, were twentyâ€"one and twentyâ€"threo. They had graduated at a very fashionable school and were deemed very accomplished; and moreover they were called beautiful. "Well, my little Kate looks good, any how," and nobody ever disputed him. Mrs. Lanark thought Isabel and Bertha both prettier than Kate, but Mr. Lavark was of a different opinion. However, upon one point there was no dispute. The Judge would oftain say : l Kate, the youngest of the three daughters. had just risen from the pianoforte, where } she had been showing her parents how much slie had improved upon her last conrse. . She was ninteen years of age, and her form was of the pure female typeâ€"not robust, nor yet furyâ€"like, but after the model which the old Greeks used to adopt when they wished to seulpture an Aridyise or an Eupl:rosyne. Touching her faceâ€"it is certainly a good looking face. To call such | a face pretty would sound tame and flat. _ And thus speaking, Mrs. Lanark, a lady of fiveâ€"andâ€"forty, and the mother of three grown up daughters lay back in her easy chair and gently waved her fan, "Realy, Kate, you have succeded yery well. Where mmy daughters are all so truâ€" ly accomplished I dare not draw compariâ€" son, but I must say to you that I considder your education perfect." Take the dear lambs by the hand ; Point them to truth and to goodness. Send them to Canaan‘s fair land ; Some are so young and so helpless, Some are so hungry and cold.

And once, when he had been speaking of his mother, he had noticed Kate‘s eyes grow moist, with sympathetic light, while her sisters only smiled in their sweet pleasâ€" ant way. He fancied that through the glittering moisture of these deep blue eyes he had lovuked down into a warm and ten der heartâ€"a heart trus and reliable. One bright morning Roland Archworth arose with the sun, and walked out intothe garden. â€" Byâ€"andâ€"by he came round by the porch, and eutered the kitchen and asked for a drink of milkâ€"for he had just seen the gardener bringing a brimming pail trom During the brief interviews that had been permitted he found her highly neccomâ€" plished ; but he thought he detected an unâ€" derâ€"current of plain, practical common sense which had not appeared in the other ones. Touching Rolond‘s assosiations with Lanâ€" ark‘s daughters, ho seemed to enjoy the society of them all. If he seemed more eager to talk to one than to another it was with Kate: not, perhaps, because he found her more attractive, but becouse she kept herself hidden away from him so much. "You get our cook into your house and you‘d find you‘d got a Tartar, my boy," he said. And then to change the subject he added: "I remember your mother very well, Roâ€" land, and have eaten her bread." And thus the conversation softened down into the poetry of other days. Poor Kate, who sat exactly opposite the speaker, blushed until it seemed as though all the blood in her body was rushing into her face; while Isabel and Bertha trembled as they mizht have trembled at the verge of a frightfal precipice. The Judge laughâ€" ed outright. **No," replied the visitor, with a smile. ‘If you will allow me to exercise my own whim you will plesse me. This plain bread is a luxury such as I do not often meet. It takes me back to my boyhood days. I have not eaten such since I ato the bread my own mother made. If ever I keep house for mysolf I think I shall ask you to send me your cook." For the life of them they could not help the betrayal of emotion. "Will you have some of this cake, Mr. Archworth ?" asked Mrs. Lanark, lifting the eilver basket of frosted niccties. But there was no help for it, and Kate went {nto the kitchen and took command of the forces in that quarter. "But for increy‘s sake don‘t let Mr. Archâ€" worth know it," pleaded Isabel. "Ie beâ€" longs to a sphere which would be shocked by such gross impropriety. â€" He would look upon us as belonging to the cana b‘e." _ If Isabel was selected to preside over the youthful millionare, Bertha would not complain; and should Bertha prove the fortunate one, Isabel was prepared to yield. One thing happened very unfortunately. On the very day of Archworth‘s arrivel, the cook was taken sick. What was to be done? "Never mind," said Kate, with a smile ; "I wili take the reins untill the cook gets well." And Isabel and Bertha. Of course thare was rivalry betwoon them. _ Bul they agreed to abide the issue. And we do not do the Judge injustice when we say that the son of his old schoolâ€" mate might find in ns heart to love one of the girls, â€" e studied the youths character well, and he beleived it to be one of the purest and best. Is it a wonder that Mrs. Lanark‘s heart fluttered when the prospects dawned upon her that pos:ibly the young banker might seek one of her daughters for a wife? She cared not whethsr he chose Isabel or Bertha. They were both accomplished and cither would make a good mate for him. ’ And thus it happened when the summer came Roland Archworth came up to Lanâ€" ark‘s pleasant home. He was a young man of fiveâ€"andâ€"twenty, and was, to use the exâ€" pression of one whoknew him well, "every inch a man." He had iuherited a fortune from his father, and he was now a partner in the house which his father had foundâ€" ed. There was no speculation in the buisâ€" ness which he followed, with a banking capital fully equal to the greatest possible emergency, and its wealth was constantly Sncreasing, )o 5> <. _0 |‘ During their visit to the great metropoâ€" lis the elder sisters made many friends and formed very pleasant associations. Among others they met with Roland Archâ€" worth, a young banker, whose father had been Judge Lanark‘s classmate and chum in college. In their letters home they inâ€" formed ther father of the fact and the Judge remembering the elder Archworth with treasured love and esteem, and knowing the son to be the occupant of fn exalted pasition in society invited the young man to visit him and his country home. ‘The following winter Isabel and Bertha spent in the city. Kate remained at home because her mother could not well spare them all. But Kate was in earnest; and as her father backed her up she carried the day, gnined the freedom of the kitchen, where the servants sooen came to love and respect her. Mrs. Lanark still thought it foolish ; and Issabel and Bertha characterised it as very childish and whimsical. They fancied that it smacked of the nursery and play room. own baking in the ead." _ New Zealand is malung great progress in the cultivation of soil and in the introducâ€" tion of foreign plants. The Government of the colony has arranged for a shipment this month of a number of Japanese fruit trees, apple, orange, and plumb, and other trees and slhrubs. The temperature of New Zealand is considered to be so ‘much like that of Japan that it is hoped these fruits will easily become acclimated and thrive well, There is some prospect, too of makâ€" ing New Zealand a vine growing country. some French vine growers have decided to plant a piece of land in the north of Auckâ€" land as a vineyard. It is also proposed to introduce the tes plant into the same disâ€" triet. Bome time ago the colony introducâ€" ed a large number of English sparrow: and I linncts, and made special provision for their protection. Both sparrows and Iin-l nets havse got on so well in New Zeal+nd, and multiplied so rapidly that the protectâ€" ion which has hitherto bsen extended to ; them has now been re.uoved. | As for Roland and Kate, thrir happiness was complete, and of the accomplishments which his wife possesses, the husband is chiefly proud of that which enables her to be in deed, as well as in name, the mistress ot his home. Isabel and Bertha were disappointed; but since at best only one of them could have won the prize, they concluded on the whole that it was as well as it was. They loved their sister, and were really glad that they were thus enabled to claim the wealthy banker for their brotherâ€"inâ€"law. Of course Mrs. Lanark was willing, alâ€" though rather surprised at the young man‘s choice. Aund Kate when closely questioned conâ€" fessed that the first flame of real Jove that glowed in her bosom for Roland Archworth was kindled by the deep and true elements of manhood which he had displayed on that early morning in the kitchen. Roland went away, and half an hour afâ€" terward the supernal light that danced in his eyes told the story of success. "God bless you, my boy! Go and win her if you can. And be sure if you gain her you will gain a treasure." "I discovered it in the kitchen, Judge. I fell truly and irrevocably in love with her when 1 found her with her white arms bare, making bread. â€" It is your little Kate I want." "Yes Judge. Your Kate is the woman I want for my wife, if I can win her." "But my dear boy, how did you manage to find my pearlâ€"My ruby among the houschold jewels? ‘Where and when did you discover the priceless worth of that sweet child." ** My dear boy," said he, "between you and me, there need be no beating about the bush, 1 tell you frankly I would be both proud and happy to weleome you as my son. . Which of the two is it ?" "Of tlie two," repeated Roland curiously, "Aye. â€" Is it Isabel or Bertha?" "*Neither sir, It is Kate 1 want." "Kate !" cried the old man, in blank asâ€" tonishment. _ But quickly a glad light danced in his eyes. "I hav come," he went on "to ask of you that I may seek to gain the hand of your daughter." A few days thereafter the young banker sought the Judge in his study, and said as he took a seat that he had come on imporâ€" tantant business. No matter what Roland said. He said something and then drank the milk. He evidently louged to linger in the kitchen, but propriety forbade, and with more of his real feeling in his looks than in his speed he retired. "I trust," she said, with a beaming smile, "‘that the dust of toil upon my hands will not render the offering less acceptable." _ At first Kate had been startled terribly; but when she met the supplicant‘s warm and radient look, and the music of the old home love fell upon her car, and when she saw, as by mstinet, that the whole scene was pleasant to him, she felt her heart bound with gleeful assurrance; and, touchâ€" ing the flakes of dough from her arms, she went and filled a bowl with new milk and brought it to him. _ "Ah, good morning, Miss Lanark. Parâ€" don my intrusion, but I saw the milk pail come in, and I could not resist the temptaâ€" tion. Oh, the old, old days! I shall never forget their joys, and I trust I may never outlive them. It was boyhood‘s delight to take from my mother‘s hand the cup warm from the new milking. This is the first opportunity that presented itself for long, long years. I could not let it slip. You will pardon me, I ‘know. 3 With a clear sense and quick comprehenâ€" sion, aided by keen powers of analysis and reason, Roland read the whole story. He had come too far to retreat, and he pushed boldly on. He went in and saw Kate Lanark at the moulding board,her white arms bare to the shoulders, kneading a snowy pile of dough. She did not see him at first and he had a { ’moment for thoughtâ€"and in a moment , the truth flashed upon him. Here was I the cook he had declared he would have in | his own house if he cou‘!d get her. Andhe! could now understand the blushing of the maideu, ard the laughing rejoinder of the Judge. And he remembered now of hayâ€" ing overheard Mrs. Lanark speaking with a member of her family about the sickness of the cookâ€"how unfortunate it was and so soorl. | the stable. New Zealand. | heated and better kopt. f None of the northern continzntal States of Europe besides Germany, and Belgium have removed all restrictions upon the trafiic in alcoholie drinks. ‘The bad conâ€" sequence in both countries have become so evident that in Holland a law is recomâ€" mended which declares drunkenness a crime. | In Belgium the consumption of alâ€" eohol since 1840 has increased from cighâ€" teen to fortyâ€"three million of frances, and in the industrial counties there is one dram shop for every six or seven persons. Thus, in Belgium, the working classes spend beâ€" tweon fifty and sixty millions of franes for alcohol. ‘The same evil has manifested itâ€" self in Germany. The free sity of Bremen im 1868 abolished its liconse law. The‘ number of dram shops instantly rose from 512 to 728, and in 1867 to 829, for which reason the Senate made a motion for the introduction of the license law. When, in 1869, the new law of the North Germany Confederation dispensed with the proof of the necessity of a dram shop for a village or town or a street of a large city, within two years the number of dram shops in Germany grew from 116,811 to 129,062 or 122,261. From October 1st, 1869, to Jan 1st, 1877 the number of inns rose from 42, 642 to 69,805, or 44 per cent., and that of drinking saloons from 62,612 to 69,305, or 11per cent. in 1869 the percentage of inns and dram shops to the number of in: habitants, was 45.75 to 100,000 inhabitants, j but in 1877 it had risen to 55.88. The same enormous increase manifested itself all over Germany, so that the Reichstag, in its sitâ€" ting of July 28rd,1870, made the licence o{ a dram shop and of an inn, in towns or vilâ€" lages of less than 1,500 inhabitants, condiâ€" tional on the necessity for them. Prior to granting a license the police and town anâ€" | thorities are asked for their opinion whicl | in case of a negative answer, is never overâ€" ' ruled by the Secretary of the Interior. Thi. |‘ reduction of the number of the dram shops. | | however, is not enough to surpress drank ' enness. ‘The smaller number of drinking places has attracted a large number o |" guests, who enjoy themselves t-lura : great crowd and in rooms s | "| Planvt food is concentrated in bones, and '°Imost gardeners, who make a buisness of ‘" | raising fruit and vegetables, appreciate their * ) value. The great drawback to their use is * the difficulty of rodncing to sufficient fineâ€" 4 ] ness so that the plants may immediatly apâ€" j j propriate them. If bone mills were more © | common, and the adulteration of the ground °| bone were less, this excellent fertilizer ° | would be more commonly used. Even withâ€" * | out bone mills there is no use in wasting ‘| the bones, if one has a garden. We have ® | applied them with great profit in several l ways. In tree planting they are almostinâ€" | dispensabie. They can be had of yillage ; | boys generally for about twentyâ€"five or fifty iz cents a barrel, ‘They pick them up about ‘| the strects, gardens, slaughter houses, the j ’lemnnnta of butcher‘s meats sold to famiâ€" ’lies. ‘This kind of bone is fine enough to | put into the border for erapeâ€"vines, without 4 any preparation. .A bushel of these bones | to a newly planted tree is none to much, ‘land one may safely plant five bushels | under a bearing apple or pear tree, or grape | vine. &o large results will not follow im mediately from these coarse pieces as from | the ground article, or from superphosphate. But there.will be in the ground a supply l of food for many years to come, and the roots will appropriate it as they have need. [ The fine rootlets will seek the bone, as eagerly as they seek water in a tile drain. We have frequently taken up grape vines planted in this way, and found the bone once solid, penetrated with fine roots.| We doubt if any investment in fertilizers|. i pays better then in these bones from butchâ€" er‘s meat, which are quite plentiful in all |, ‘ our villages. Another method of using ‘them is with the preparation of the haâ€" : mmer or stone sledge. This requires some | expenditure of money and muscle. The!, l common bones are tough and require heary blows to crush them. â€" Parts will be crushâ€" ; | ed quite fine and others will remain in |, | inch pieces. They may be applied to the 4 | soil for all ordinary crops, especially for f turnips, in this partly broken state, with ( profit. It is still better, however, to reduce y them to afiner state, by fermenting in a compost heap, or by traating with wood | ; ashes. If they are put into a cask and PA mixed with alternate layers of good q wood ashes, and kept moist, they will soon P go to picces, and the fine inixture will have { ’ a large amount of potash and be made more ‘ " valuable and better adapted to crops that g | want a good deal of potash. If wood ashes ‘ are not convenient the bones may be ferâ€" jl mented in a compost heap with good garâ€" | ( ’ den soil. Put them into a fermenting mass | ; ‘ of vegetable or animal matter, and the | bones will add to the heat and become very | ,, fine. After the fermentation is over, the p whole mass should be shoveled over, and C immediately mixed, and it may be spread broadcast or put in the hill as a concenâ€" A trated manure. This way is good enough, |;, though it requires more time than the reâ€"| ; duction of bone by sulphuric acid, which eosts money, and requires more carcful handling. We have used bones in all these methods, with great profit, for thirty years, and expect to use them whilo we cat the fruits of the garden.
