and it certainly is not far wrong may we not find in it the cause of so many women fading at an early age andbecoming invalids only a certain amount of vitality is given us for a certain time and if the expenditure exceeds the in come failure musshe the final result life is not long enough for any one to do every thing something must be crowded out and the sooner we decide what arc the least important duties and what can be best spared from our lives tho better for our health and happiness no doubt there will be a little struggle as we give up ono after another the things we had hoped to do and sec them drifting beyond our reach yet if we choose wisely and remember thst the life is more than meat and the body moro than rai ment we need not allow ourselves to regret the things that have been crowded out it is often not so much the work we do that tics us as the complication of duties and cares and the thought that some must be left undone one cannot choose for another but each must solve foe herself the question of simplifying living in order that more time maj be given to the higher things of life a constantly tired woman cannot be the beat wife and mother she is not able to give that ready sympathy and companion ship which is the life of the home it is pos sible to sacrifice too much to immaculate housekeeping and the first years of house keeping are the hardest for the cares arc new and untried bit of all the work that comes to ua is not the mother work the most important if some things moat be crowded out let it not be that it will avail little how wc toil for the outer life ot the home if the soul of the home life be wanting it wo let tenderness and sympathy be shut out or pushed aside by cares and tasks that min ister only to tho body convenient kitchens- this season will probably see the com pletion of many a new farmhouse in mak ing your plan look first to tho parlor t not much the kitchen demands the first and best for there the laved wife and mother in most cases will spend one half of her time i do not mean to have tho kitchen on the front bide of the house for that would not only bo silly but very inconvenient unless you turned the front yard into a garden made a woodpile at tbe frontdoor a henhouse in the street etc you do not wane large kitchen for small one with accompanying diningroom is so much more pleasant have a dining- room if you cannot have a parlor i do not see what two thirds of the farmers want a parlor for it is not used on an averagd once a month in the majority of cases it is a cold perhaps musty grand shut up room in the best comer of the house and too nico to use the money that went into the fur nishing of that useless corner would buy many comforts and some luxuries that would make the rest of the house a moat de lightful restingplace i lave a cosy cheerful sittingroom with good substantial furniture as good as you can afford and use it every day or in the evening at least do you suppose john or will or bess or kate will care about going csrtsunlsirsi can take a low rockingchair and sit ucn by it lay a carriagerobe or two down on this cover and if you can have a pillow bandy there will be a lounge

in the farmers household yet there are localities where it is not always to be had and the housekeepers axe not able to hare ices during the simmer and are quite at a loas for dainty light desserts to take their place creams blanc mange charlotte raise and gelatine jellies will all be found excellent substitutes for icecream and sherbet if set in a springhouse or hung in a cool well until chilled blanc manage is so easily made and the expense is so trifling that it should come first in the list of convenient desserts the irish moas in its natural state the moea larioa gelatine cornstarch or arrow root may all bo used to convert the milk into blanc mange which may be flavored with fresh fruit juices extracts or chocolate even in the warmest weather blanc mange wiltthicken if put in a cool place bavarian creams come next in the list of economical dainties and are very nourish ing being a combination of cream eggs sugar and fruits charlotte russe is also very delicious but being more troublesome and expensive is better suited for special occasions than everyday use when tbe overworked mother is the cook gelatine jellies are refreshing after a heavy meal of vegetables and meats but do not possess any strengthening qualities to make blanc mange put a quart of new milk iu a saucepan dissolve a tablespoon- fut of moss farina in a little cold milk and mix in beat one egg and half a teacupful of sugar add to tbe boiling milk flavor with lemon extract or any fruit juice in season pour iu a mold and set ou foe to cool serve with cream sweetened and flavored if cornstarch is used in

well mixed turn in a mould to harden serve with whipped cream flavored and sweetened all fruits are excellent for flavoring bavarian creams charlotte russe may be made in several ways the simplest recipe is the following line a cakemold with thin slices of cake put one third of a box of gelatine in a pint of milk set it where it will heat and dis solve make a rich custard one quart and add the gelatine flavor and set where it will be cool when it begins to thicken stir in carefully a pint of whipped cream pour into the mold and set to cool egg meringae or whipped cream may be put on top of

exoectancy en her face but it vanished as she perceived the farmer and his wife were alone not a word was raid about luther baggs neither then nor afterwards zilpah thought a good deal about the ride to may ville and practiced at twisting up her hair but bagga did not come cither with his horscroke to work or in his buggy to take her to drive during the days which fol lowed she had time to recall every little look and word of kindnccs he had given her to indulge in an innocent selfsatisfaction at tho thought that she had found favor in a mans eyes and todrcam of herself as mis tress ol a home

more zilpah reached her twenty- first- birthday sho thought luther would come then surely but he did not she was not much changed perhaps what change there was was in the way of improvement mrs opdike had failed in health within these few years sho was very dependent on zilpah and so when her majority was reached the farmer and his wife consulted together and offered to zilpah to remain with them as a daughter and inherit tho farm in return for caring for their declining years and zilpah accepted and so bound herself again one autumn mrs opdike who had been for some months confined to her bed died zilpah was now twentyfive she was very capable and managed tho housework as well as her mistress had managed it before her five more years went by and zilpah was thirty farmer opdike came in from tho hay field one noontime overcome by the heat and a week later ho was carried through the open door past the lyringabushes to the cemetery nnd laid beside his wife when tho will was opened it was found that everything he possessed was left to his adopted daughter zilpah opdike so many years have passed and one eve ning zilpah stood at her gate watching for tho return of the mauand woman who

unwonted comeliness yes i wanted to seo ye bagas said did she ever tell yo bout my call zilpah shook her head i didnt bhove shed toll ye zilly shes got a legal right but i dont believe shes got a moral right to hold you and then baggs related his interview with tho farmer unci his wifo including his proposal to marry zilpah and to com pensate them for tho loss of her services the girls faco was red and white by turns as she listened tho thoughts and hopes which she had treasured in her secret soul shonoout of her eyes sho had grown accustomed to the idea of being wooed and luthers wooing no longer frightened and distressed her it pleased her sho liked him sho liked the idea of going to live in his poor home and of taking care of his lit tle girl and of mending his clothes and

too good to bo true ho id touching the crumbling leave of the huckleberry bushes a they lay between the pages of the open book sae vtm leaklax iii mca were ln hut tie wat brave t heart all were alrk bal ulaatrlf a txv and a sfaau the yarn of the nova seotian bark h- b cann which arrived at norfolk va on sunday frotr lloilo with 2100 ton of raw sugar was cheerfully spun yvaterday by her nervy little yarmouth skipper opt lurke to an audience of reporter i cant give you the exact latitude and longitude the first man was taken down aaid the optimutic old salt unless i look at my log book and that aboard ship out in atresia anyhow we were 130 day out from lloilo and we were leaking the man complained of a numb sort of feeling iu his lti and wauunl to lie down all the time after a few days other men were attacked by tbe disease which made their leg swell as if they had dropsy i suspected tbat they had beriberi which the doctors say u caused by the steam from the sugar on sep 23 one of the men thomas russel died and i mustered ail the crew we had fourteen men in au now that could stand to the waist of the ship and we shoved the body fcewed in canvas into the sea while 1 read the burial service thla had a de- pressingettecton tho crew every man of which except one was sick but some of em were able to stub along and as the lord blessed us with good weather we fared firetty well tilt our biscuits began to get ow we had nothing left but salt horse and water and mighty little of that when wo neared the carolina coast seven men were down then and the rest could work only once in a while we had a brisk northerly wind which was dead ahead of course aud we beat slowly up the coast on saturday oct 8 the carpenter john nugent died i mustered the men again and buried nugent tney wero almost hopeless then each one thinking he might be the next to blideoff theplauk into the sea our biscuits had given out aud the prospect of sick men living on a diet of corn ed pork wasnt altogether bright i bad to do something to keep their spirits up so i called all of cm that could hobble aft and made em a little speech i said we were not far from land and that i would make the nearest port north of hatteras as quick ly as i could if they would try to shake off their sickness for a time they responded aye aye well try sirj and went forad just then a steamer hove in sight and i set two pennants signifying that we were starving the steamer kept on her course and i hauled down tbe flags and bending our ensign union down on the halliards sent the signals aloft again the steamer didnt notice us and the men came aft and de manded thatl should dosomethingelse one of em a oea lawyer as we cnll em gave mo some balloon talk i told em i had sig nalized the steamer with the strongest code and if sho didnt mind that she wouldnt mind any thing i also told em i was the captain of tho ship and was going to run her to suit my interests which under the cir cumstances 1 calculated were the same as theirs we beat to the nothard pretty slow you may believe with only one man my little dog and myself entirely well we were a time getting about as the ships bot tom was heavy with barnacles and slime at last wo saw the currituck lighthouseand the men brightened up a bit but the wind went down then and we just lay there and whistled for abrcf7e the men with the sea lawyer for spokesman came aft again and said something must be done for them i kept the signals up and told em that was all 1 could do then tho sea lawyer said a boat might be sent ashore to currituck i knew no man of em could get there in a boat as it was a longer way off than it seemed to be they went forad grumbling and left mo pacing the deck with my dog a little puff of wind came and then au- other but not strong enough to give us steerage way then i felt more like pray ing than i ever did and i siid out loud oh lord please make them puffs a little stronger but they didnt get rruch strong er i wondered how long wo would have to lay out there and i began to make ready to cost anchor in case the worst came to tho worst thero were only 12 fathoms under us and as i had 12u fathoms of chain in tho locker i knew i could stick it out a good while buton tuesday morning oct 11 aw a biij ti toamine out to us i knew then that our signals had been seen at vjur- rituck and that the tug bad been sent ont from norfolk for us but i didnt want that tugboatnian to catch us napping and mulct us for salvage so i called all tho men aft and told cm to stay on deck look spruce as possible say nothing when the tug came alongside but let me do all the talking and they wouldnt regret it i had tho signals hauled down and the windmill which was pumping us out unshipped and tlie side of the ship near tho scuppers scrub bed so tho tugboatnian wouldn t know we wero leaking ho steamed around ua three or four times sizing us up and gcttingnear- er every circle ho made at last ho lay to and asked if we wero tho bark that had sig nals of distress up on sunday i said we were and then he asked what the trouble was i said we merely wanted food and drink as wo were just about starving then he asked if we hadnt sickness aboard i said we did havo two men slightly ill with some sort of swelling of the feet then ho wanted to know if i wouldnt liko to be towed in i pretend ed not to be powerful anxious for a tow but asked him careless like how much ho would charge he said s100 and i said 1 guessed i would let him have tho job for that if he would throw in a breakfast ho came alongside and gave us a barrel of fresh bis cuit lota of meat already cooked and gal lons of hot coffee tho men were ravenous and so was t and that breakfast was just about the lest i over tasted it made ma feel kind o small for playing it on the tag- boatman i guess he must havo felt pretty mad when the doctors boarded us at quar antine when our anchor went down every motherssou aboard went down with it and tho tugboat man found wo hadnt a thor oughly well man on the ship then he in- vited me over to tho tug which was tho rescue and asked ino if i didnt think that job of towing was worth rrore than 100 i said i couldnt tell but i thought the break fast was worth at least 50 so wo com promised on 150 which was dirt cheap when wo got to norfolk i sent tho mate and seven men to hospital and they got well tho doctors told mo that tho way lo cure beriben was to send tho patients lo grass thoy want tho smell of tho dry land which you cant get at sea unless you tako it iu your cargo jaamx seselshkffiaesssssot
