The practice of a whole life will not eatable a Woman to throw a stone with grace a accuracy. It was one of the first and neost knotty physiological questions which presented itself to our uthful mind—why our big sister, when yo she tried. to throw fe snow -ball at us, al- saost invariably sent it careening over the top of the liouse, while we in turn, coup. pop her in the ear al- most every time. It may be that we took a mean advantage of this discrim- ination of nature in our behalf against our sister, and it raay be, that we im- proved. the opportnnity to rake her fore said at whenever she came within firing distance. But tb.at is neither here nor there. As the time passed on and we increasedour stock of observation, we saw the other fellows' sisters labored mider about the • same disadvantages that mars did. in the matter of throwing any kind. of missile. Why this marked and unmistakable difference existed. we never learned until at a somewhat ad- vanced period. we dove into a book of physiology, and learned. that the clav- icle, or collar -bone, in the anatomy of a fenaale is some inches longer and. set some degrees lower down than in the masculine frame. This long, crooked., awkward. bone interferes -with the full and. free action of the shoulder, and. that's the reason Why a girl cannot throw a stone. The design of this .sort of thing is still unexplained to our en- tire satisfaction. We have developed. a pet theory of our own, however, that an all wise and beneficent Providenee, foreseeing that there would be rolling - pins, and. stove -hooks, and pot -lids, and hot water in the world, Bet the woman's clavicle down to a hitch or two for the eafety of men. It's lucky for all of us that women cannot throw stones.—Ex- elanige. How One Woman Made a A neighbor found herself at the be- ginning of the "hard times" in very straightened circurastainces. Her hus- band's business had come to a dead- lock, and there seemed. no work for a man to do. It must he her turn, or else no income. The pretty home had but partially been paid for, and to lose it now that the vines were growing so beautifully about the porch, the shrub- bery getting so nicely started in the yard, seemed a thought she Could not cherish. So she sat down and held a council With herself. "Now, there is money enough in the commtinity if one could only find. a way to earn it. What can I do that will give us a support, until this pinch is over?" She thought and. thought, and finally settled on the matter of bread. She was a famous baker, and'alie knew that many people were not fond of baker's bread, though in that community they depended wholly upon it for their sup- ply of this needed. article. She would try her hand at making home-made bread, for sale. She started. with ten loaves, which were left at the factory tore for sale. They went off like hot /likes, and the cry 'was for more of the same sort. The snow ball had. begun to move. She calculated her expenses and charged a fair profit on her loaves, and. was fairly laimohed in business. Day by day she moulded her loaves, and soon had the full capacity of her large kitchen stove in active operation from morning until night. She gradu- ated. the rising of her bread according to the time when she wished it ready for the oven; moving into a cooler or warmer room as was required.. She now has two large cooking stoves ac- tively at work, and has added on some lovely tea cakes and small loaves of sponge cake, and occasionally- a batch of pies and doughnuts. From being a very slight, fragile -looking woman, this much kneadine of her dough has broad- ened her cb.estband shoulders and put new muscles on her arras, whioh have yet lost nothing in womanly 'grace by this very womanly work. The liouse, too, has no appearance of being a bak- er's shop, but is as pretty and vine -clad in front as when its mistress had not so developed her working powers. Better than all, the house is paid for, and. is now their very own. Not all women can go and do like- wise, -and pay up for a place, besides supporting a family; but there is a great deal of latent talent and money getting ability, which a real, earnest determination could bring into active exercise, to the great advantage of all concerned.—Farmer's Home 'Thar - How She Managed.' It. Mr. Marooney is foreman in a foun- dry, and sets $30 a week. With this salary the family ought to get along well and save money, but they do not. Mr. Marooney has a cousin, a shoemak- er, who gets only $15 a week, yet who sails right along in lightning express, while Maroolkey comes lagging along in a freight with a hot -box. "How do you manage it, Jack ?" he :would frequently ask, "to get along the way you do? Here you actually keep your family and save inoney on $15 a week, while it takes every cent I make to live, and I get double the pay !" "Oh ,I don't manage it at all," says Jack "1 just take my money hone to the old woman on Saturday night, and she takes $5 to run the house with, and puts the rest carefully away." "Do you give her all the money ?" asks Mr. Marooney, musing. " Oh, no, not quite; I keep out a lit- tle for tobacco during the week, and a trifle to keep me from feeline lonesome. If I kept it all in ray pocket I would Spent it all sure, but Mary keeps it tight and safe." Mr. Marooney talked it over with his Wife: that night, and they concluded to try J-ack's plan. The followinebSatur- day night he brought home his$30, and keeping back one; put the rest in her keeping, and she promised to do her level best to set the table on but 45. The first week she squeezed -through somehow, and got alonebwith ‘,`i6 50. Marooney was quite pleaeed, and began layinebawake at night thinking a:boat what kind. of a house he would bttild, He thought a plain rustic cot - age a bay window would be about right. The next week her expense ac- count footed up to $5, 80, and Mr. Ma- rooney changed his design for a future residence from frame to brick. The next week she brought it down thirty cents more, and he added a wing, with a stash -house. Then she made a super- human struggle, quit busing milk, and came withiag two shillings of the goal for whicIi she had been striving. MT. Marooney decided on an iron ifence in front of his residence. The next week she lost ground, slipped, and came out •at the $6 post. Mr. Marooney 'thought a neat railing fence was good enough for anybody, but when the ensuing week she came in with flying colors, and struck the $5 mark ine both eyes, Ma Marooney had. the iron railing rein- stated, and granite ateps running up to the door. The n xt week she took the money , she had aved, and went and. bought her a loy of a hat, too cute for any- thing, a 1lack silk dress, and a cherub of a c1oz.k, that made the woman next door cry kvith envy till her nose got sore, an Mr. Marooney came to the conclusi n that it didn't pay to live in one's owi property, keeping up repairs, insuranc etc., and the worry and stew in dread Of fire and earthquakes, more than cor4nterbalanced. any trifling ad- vantages there might be.—Pittsbureh, Gazette. oys Will be Boys. She had invited. him to stop to sup- -- per, and. he was trying to appear easy and unconcerned, while she was on her prettiest behavior. , "Have you used the sugar, 'John ?"in- quired the mother, in a winning man- ner. " John don't want no sugar,".ejacu- lated the young heir abruptly. " Why not ?" inquired the father, cu- riously, While John, in the surprise, swallowed a bit of toasted crust, and nearly cut his throat open. "'Cos he don't," explained the heir in an artful manner; "I heard. him tell Mary last night—" "You keep still," interrupted Mary in a hysterical manner, while the young man caught his breath in dismay. "1 heard him say," persisted. the heir with dreadful eagerness, " that she was so sweet he shouldn't never use no more sugar any more—an' then he kissed her, and I said. I'd tell, an'—" The young heir was lifted out of the room by his ear, and the supper was finished in moody silence. Well Worth It. "Gan you let me have some money this morning to purchase a new bonnet, ray dear ?" "By and -by, love." " That's what you always sayenay love; but how can I buy and. buy without money?" And that brought the money, just as one good tarn deserves another. Her wit was FO successful that she tried. again the next week. "1 want Money, my dear, to buy a new dress." 'Well you can't have it. You called me a bear last night," said her husband. Oh, well, _dear, you know it was only because you were so fond. of hug- ging." It hit him just right again, and she got the money, and some extra. He left Ins pretty wife and hurried off to business, saying "it takes a fortunel to keep such a wife, but it's worth it." What Education Does. Jake was heard. calling across the fence, to his neighbor's son a colored youth who goes to school at the Atlanta Colored University: "Look hyar, boy, yea goes ter school, .don't yer ?" " Giffin' ethlykashun, ain't yer ?" " Yes, air." "Well, it don't take two whole days to make an hour, do it ?" " W'y no !". exclaimed the boy. "You was gwine to bring that hatchit back in an hour, wasn't you ?" "Yes, sir." "An' it's bin two days since yer bor- rowed it. Now, whats good's eddyk- ashun gwine ter do you thick skulled niggers when you go to school a whole year an' den can't tell how long it take to fetch back a hatchit ?" The boy got mad and slungthe hatch- et over the fence and half way through an ash -barrel. What the Matter Was. " Why,"ray dear, what is the mat- ter?' What can you'mean ? You look so depressed, It cannot bb—and yet -- oh! relieve this killing suspense! Alex- ander, have you failed ?" said his wife with clasped hands. "No, ray dear ; my credit is yet unimpaired, and 'busi- ness is looking up.:, -' You can't mean to say, dear, that your olcl pain in the head has come back." "No." "You haven't had to pay the note for your brother Joseph?" "No." "Have you — now tell me, Alexander Bid - lack have you had another attack of vertigo?" "No." •" Has your cashier broken his Murphy pledge?" "No." "Now I know—I expected it—I knew it all the time—I felt sure it would be BO. Mr. Debonair has asked for Sera- phine ?" " No ? nothing of the kind." "Then tell me, without waiting anoth- er minute, what has happened; I can bear it; let me know the worst." "Well, that button I told you about has got tired of hanging on by one thread, and here it is." Kindness Rewarded. The bread on the waters has return- ed to a young lady in Clippertown, Peunsylvania, after a few years. On December 28, 1873, she met, on a rail- road train, a lady who was very ill, and she kindly ministered unto her, taking care of her and accompanying her to her place of destination. When they parted the sick woman offered, to pay the young lady for her kindness and at- tention, but she would take nothing. The old svoman wrote down the name and address, nodded familiarly to her, and said, "You will be paid. some day." The young lady never saw her chalice acquaintance :again, but the sum of $90,000 has recently been bequeathed to her. The old woman had na relatives in America, and left all her money to the girl who had befriended her: The Largest Man in England. The Newcastle -on -Tyne correspond- ent of the _Lancet sends some strange particulars as to Mr. William. 'Camp- bell, landlord of the Duke of Welling- ton, in his town.. Campbell boasts of being the largest subject in Her Ma- jesty's realm' , standing six feet four inches in height, and weighing over 52 stones. He measures Armand the shoul- ders, 96 inches; round the waist, 85 inches; and round the calf of the leg, 35 -niches. He was born in Glasgow in 1856, and has not quite attained his twenty-second year; was o.ne of a fa n- ily of seven children, none of whom., be - side himself, are of more than. ordinary proportions. His father was of average weight, although he stood six feet two inbhes ; his mother was rather under the average height and weight of wo- men. Campbell stated. that from his birth he was retnarkably stout, and that at nine months old he weighed four stones, at ten years of age he weighed eighteen stones, and he has gone on increasing since then, and it is with difficulty he keeps at his present weight. He was brought up as a printer, but was compelled. from his extraordinary size to give up his occu- pation. The Only Female -Mason. The Hon. Elizabeth St. Leger was the only female ever initiated into the -mysteries of Freemasonry. She had two degrees—the first and the second— conferred on her. As it may be inter- esting to the general reader, we give the story as to how Miss St. Leger obtained this honor, premising that the informa- tion coraes from the best of sources. Lord. DoneraaleMiss St. Leger's father, a very zealous Mason, held a warrant, and occasionally opened lodge at Don- eraile House, his sons and some inti- mate friends assisting; and it is said that never were Masonic duties more rigorously performed.than by the breth- ren of No. 140, the number of their warrant. It appears that previous to the initia- tion of a gentleman to the first degree of Masonry, Miss St. Leger, who was a young girl, happened to be in an apart- ment adjoining the room generallyased a.s lodge room, but whether the girl was there by design, or merely accident, we cannot confidently state. The room at the time was undergoing some altera- tion; among other things, the wall was considerably reduced in one part for the purpose of making a saloon. The young lady having hard the voices of Freemasons, and having been incitedby curiosity natural to all to see the—mys- tery, so long and so secretly locked up from public view, had. the courage to pick a brick from the wall with her scissors, and thus witness the firsttwo steps of the ceremony. Her curiosits gratified, fear at once took possession of her mind, and those who understand tills passage, well knew what the feelingof any person must be who could unlawfully behold that cere- mony; let them judge what were the feelings of a young girl under such ex- traordinary circumstances. There was no mode of 'eecape except through the room where he concluding part of the second step was still being ,:solemnized at the far end, and the room was a very large one. Miss. St. Leer had resolu- tion_ enough to attempt her escape that way, and with light and trembling steps glided along Unobserved, laid her hand on the handleof the door and. 'Opened it, but before her stood, to her dismay, a grim tyler with his long sword un- sheathed. - - A shriek that passed through the apartment alarmed the members of the lodge, who all rushed. to the door, and finding that Miss St. Leger had been in the room during the ceremony, resolved itis said, in the paroxysm of their rage, to put the fair spectatress to death ; but at the moving earnest supplication of her youngest brother her life was spared. on condition of her going through the two remaininebsteps of.the solemn cere- mony' she had unlawfully witnessed. This she consented to, and they con- ducted 'the beautiful and terrified young lady through those toils which are some- times more than enough for naasculine resolution, little thinking they were taking into the bosom of their craft a member that would reflect lustre on the annals of Masonry. Miss St. Leger was a cousin to Gen- eral .Anthony St. Leger, who instituted the interesting race and celebrated Donecaster St. Leger stakes. Eventu- ally she married Richard Aldavorth, Esq., of Newmarket, a member of a rightly honorable and ancient family. Whenever a benefit was given at any of the theatres at Dublin or Cork, for the Masonic Female Orphan Asylum, Mrs. Aldworth walked. at the head of the Freemasons with her apron and other insignia of Freemasonry, and sat in front of the stage box. The house was always crowded on these occasions. The portrait of the estimable woman is in the room of almost every lodge in Ireland. How an English Clergyman Lost his Guests. A reverend doctor, who preaches not a hundred miles from the Temple, has considerable weakness for clergymen of color, and on a recent occasion gave in honor of three or four of them a din- ner, to. which he invited some of his distinguished fellow laborers in the vineyard to meet them. ' The dinner hour came, and the white parsons along with it, but though host and guests waited three-quarters of an hour, not a black one appeared. The host thereupon sends for the ser- vant, and asks whether any one has called. "No one, sir, no one," is the answer, with which the doctor being dissatisfied proceeds to cross-examine and it, after some time, occurs to the servont to say, "No one, sir, indeed, HO one has called except some Christy min- strels, and I soon got rid of them." Rolled Pancakes. Beat six eggs separately, stir the yolks into one quart of warm milk with a ta- blespoonful of melted. butter and a tea- spoonful of salt; add sufficient flour to make a thin batter; then sprinkle in one teaspoonful of yeast powder, and stir in the whites of eggs; put a frying - pan on the fire; when it is hot, grease with a spoonful of lard; pour in a cup - 1 ful of batter, fry a light brown and turn 1 over carefully so as not to break the cake when brown on both sides, lift I out and. spread with'strawberry jam, or any kin cT of jam or marmalade you have; roll up nicely, and lay them on a plate; sprinkle with pulverized sugar; send to the table hot, and serve with or without cream. —A little child at Brighton, Eng- land, has been killed by accidentally swallowing a squeaking air -bladder. It appears from information kindly fur- nished us by Mr. G. A. Johnston, that the toy slipped through the glottis -with the bladder downwards, and the quill Mouthpiece upwards so that with ev- ery inspiration the bladder became more or less inflated and thus prevent- ed the entrance of air to the limes, and produced death by suffocation; lungs, ver- dict of " accid.entally suffocated" was returned by the jury.
