They condemn refined ideas as “ nonsensical,” which is, to them, the ex. 1 treme of weakness and foolishness. It cannot be denied that there is room for ' great improvement in the habits and man- ‘ ners of the masses of the people, and that ‘ anything tending in direction of education or reforming them should be hailed with do. light and encouraged in every possible way. Instead of this, there are bur-leagues, cari- catures and a. general cheapening of those things which every intelligent person should regird as among the fundamental principles of correct and judicious living. History and observation prove that near- ly all radical reformers have been at first ridiculed, and new ideas nimost always re- ceived with suspicion, if not with the most‘ outspoken opposition. The fine old aristo- crats of the ancien regime of France had no scorn too utter, no ridicule too superior, when the first mention of “ liberty, equality and fraternity” was made in the opening days of the French Revolution; still their ' "' ‘ -4..- «on-â€" Raft-urn the 0 gathers, so_}ye_a_.ry, discouygggt; ”I!“ IHUI’IIUAD "lluwvvt u" v v-- 5 v 7 Send the cimdmn to bed {with a. 11169!

Miss Harrison does not believe in corporal punishment for any offence. 1 She said: “ It would depend entirely , upon the sort of a lie it Was. Her advice in l W93 substance was: like this: ~ Lying is too often treated locall , when it should he constitutionally tree. There are almost as many different sorts of lies as there are different sorts of fevers. For example, exaggeration which comes from excess of imagination.

When any such ridicule obstructs the ad - vwce of educational principles and strength- ens the bonds that bind us to ignorance and awkwardness, it is time that the more ad- vanced element of society stepped in to in- 1 tertere and to bring to hear every influence that will further the work of elevating and refining the world. If objection to a. better state of things affected only the mature portion of society, there would be less rea- son for regret; but when it delays the de- velopment and retards the progress of the younger members of the community, it is almost in the nature of a. calamity. â€" i-..) :â€" There are famflies all over our land in which the boys and girls keep along in all sorts of careless habits and illâ€"bred practices sim ~ because they not only have no en- ‘ con ement from their elders to do better but. would certainly be made the subjects of ridicule if they attempted to change their ways.

Miss “orson’s rule is: Use the lean ‘33 trimmings of fresh pork and from one-half J“ to one-quarter of their weight in clear firm ‘1‘ fat cut irorn the back or from some part of the carcass near the skin. Therefore to 12 t2 pounds of lean pork add three of clear fat ; eg chop or grind the meat until very fine, re- 8. moving all tough portions. Season with b ‘one cup each of salt and powdered sweet t1 herbs (chiefly sage) two even teaspoonfuls u of cayenne and four of black pepper. After 3. the meat is thoroughly chopped and seaso 1' ed try a. little piece by frying to see if the seasoning is right. Sausage meat can be salted in bags and smoked like hams. 'l‘he favorite rule of the " Interests” will bear repeating this year for the benefit of those who are new subscribers for it is war- rsnted. To 30 pounds of meat take 10 ounces of salt, three ounces of sage and one . and one~hslf ounces of pepper, two level i tablespoonfuls of allspice and one cup of ar. The meat should be cut in small pieces and the seasoning sprinkled over it anl well worked through it before it goes into . the meat grinder. The meat should never be allowed to freeze before it is used in i sausage making.

Forgetting his late indifi’erence and dxr satisfaction, Louis XIV. sprang into thO saddle and rode furiously along the back of the Seine, with the eavelfiry close in the rear. Before long these wild riders encoun- tered three young men who were oommg too wards them on foot.

The guilty men were startled and thrown off their guard on their arresr. by the King, which seemed to them like the vengeance of Heaven, that they confessed their crime, ‘ and all three were executed at once.
