1 = A STERLING OLD POEM. B Who shall judge man from his manners T o Who shall know him by bis dress? ^ l'aupers may be fit for princes, l'inces fit for something less. !* Crumpled shirt and dirty jacket h May bcclolhe the glorious ore V Of the deepest thoughts and feelings? n Satin rest can do no more. j There are streams of crystal ncclar 0 Ever flowing out of stone ; v There are purple beds and golden r Hidden, crushed and overthrown. f God, who counts by souls, not dresses, ^ Loves and prospers you and me, While lie values thrones the highest But as pebbles in the sea. c 9 Man upraised above his fellows t Oft forgets his fellows then ; c Masters, rulers, lords, remember That vour meanest, hinds nr? men I Men of labor, men of feeling, c Men of thought anil men of fume, 1 Claiming equal rights to sunshine g In a man's ennobling name. t There aro foam-embroidered oceans ; ^ There arc little wood-clad rills; c There are feeble, inch-high saplings ; t There are cedars on the hills. j God, who counts by souls, not stations, j Loves and prospers you and me; For to him all vain distinctions Are as pebbles in the sea. ? Toiling hands alone are builders < Of a nation's wenlth and fame, , Titled laziness is pensioned, . Fed and fattened on the same ; By the sweat or others' foreheads, ' Living only to rejoice, I While the poor man's outraged feeling Vainly lifts its feeble voico. . I Truth and justice arc eternal, Born with loveliness and light; Fecrct wrengs shall never prosper I While there is a sunny right. < God, whose world-wide voice is singing , Boundless love to you and mo, ' Links oppression with its titles ' But as pebbles in the sea. 1 ?TTOnREWnT.n nvriBPa Parsnip Fritters.?Boil six medium j sized parsnips until tender, then ir.ash theui , smooth, with a lump of butter and salt and ( pepper to tasc; add two beaten eggs, three ( oven tablespoonfuls of flour and half a cup- , ful of sweet milk. Heat some nico drip ( pings aud a little butter in a frying pan and ( drop the mixture by tcaspoonfuls into the y hot fat. When nicely browned on both ( sides lay them ou whitish brown paper fold- ( cd, in a plate and set them for five minutes , in the oven ; then servo on a hot dish in j which is laid a folded napkin, aud garnish with curled parsley. Cream Toast.?Take two quarts of ^ milk, put a part of it iu a spider and set it 1 on t ic stove to warm. Toast eight or ten ( slices of bread, dip them in the warm milk 1 to soltcn, and put them iu the toast dish and ' thicken to the consistency of creaui by stirring smoothly into it a spoonful or two of flour mixed in a little cold milk. Remove 1 from the fire as soon as it boils, add salt and ! a trifle of butter. Put the slices of bread back into the milk and it is ready to serve. ' This toast is much improved if the milk has , stood long enough for the cream to rise, by 1 skimming off the creaui and adding it last. , Raked Beeitiead, without Cooking ( Utensils.?l)ic a hole in the ground of sufficient size and build a fire in it; after the , O It ? * - - ? * TllPi nan nurnort tn nn?la, ]>ut tw? kw^( neck downward ; cover it with green grass, earth and coals; build a good fire over the baried head, and keep it burning for about six hours ; unearth the head and remove the skin ; a head treated in this way will be found c >oked in the morning. The head of any animal may be cooked in this manner. Mock Buckwheat Cakes.?Warm one quart skimuicd milk to the temperature of new milk; add one teaspoonful dairy salt and three tablespoonfuls good lively yeast; thicken to the consistency of real buckwheat cakes with Graham meal in which three small handfuls of fine corn meal have been mixed. Very coarse "middling," such as odc gets from country mills, answer quite , as well, and none but au expert would know the difference between the imitation and the 1 real. puddino.?An excellent apple pudding J can be made from the remains of a rice pudding.

In two or three weeks the ham will bo ex- i celleut for baking or boiling. It may be ! smoked if preferred. How to Make Tea oo Further.?A method has been discovered for making more than the usual rjuantity of tea from auy 1 given quantify of the leaf. The whole se- 1 cret consists in steaming the leaf before 1 steeping. JJy this process it is said four- ' teen pints of good quality may bo brewed ( from one ounce of tea. j New linen may be embroidered more ( easily by rubbing it over with fiuo white ( soap; it prevents the threads from cracking. ? Graiiam Bread.?One pint of sour milk, one egg, one small tablcspoonful of , soda, one-half cup of molassos, ono quart of Graham flour; mix well together; bake one hour. A Murderer Haunted ry his Vic- ] tim.?Thursday afternoon W. W. Nottingham, who has boen employed in Ascherman fc Co.'s cigar factory, in Milwaukee, under the name of Barker, appeared at tho Central police station and asked to bo taken into custody for murder. He stated that six years ngo he shot and killed one John Gaylor in a street fight in Norfolk, Va , though the shot was intended for another man. During six years' wandering in nil parts of tho country tho faco of his victim kou knnn annalanilu iiacaha kn** a ?wl i* a ?^ ?uo uvvii Wiioinuvij uviwiu Ilia, MUM IIU IIUW wants to be taken back to Norfolk and punished for the murder. His statement was telegraphed to Norfolk, and the authorities j of that city have requested his detention un'il u requisition oau' bo secured. Calumny would soon starve and die of itself if nobody took it in and gave it lodging. What an Odd Fkbruary this is to e.?Tho present February will be au odd loath in sevoral respects. It will have in be first place an odd number of days, owag to its leap year distinction. It will ave an odd number of Sunduys?five? rhicli is very odd for tho shortest aonth of tho year?and ono of the Sunays will bo Washington's birthday. It rill begin on Suuday and end on Sunday, rhich is also odd. The fivo Sundays corcspond in date with the fivo Sundays in tb? allowing August, which is odd again. It 9 said that no one now living will ever see nothcr February so odd; nor will their hildrcn, nor their children's children? ufficicnt in itself to make the month incresting. Many old superstitions arc associated with the month, which originally had wenty-nine days among the Romans in an irdinnry year. When tho Roman Senate, lowcvcr, decreed that tho eighth month houtd be named after the Emperor Augusus, one day was taken from February and lestowed on August, giving it thirty-one lays, in order that it might not be inferior o July, called after Julius Caesar. Fcbruiry was then the month of purification, roui februum, during which the Ittpercalia >r Februalia, were celebrated, lh<r festival )egiuning the 15th and celebrated annualy. Lupcrculuss, or Februus, was the god )f fertility, whose appropriate sacrifices ivere dogs and goats. After tho offering, Lwo youths, patricians, wore conducted to the altar, when one of the priests touched their fornhnnds with n Kwnrd dinnnd in tho blood of the victims, and another priest washed off the stain with wool soaked in milk. Then the priests sat down to a feast, at which wine was bountifully furnished. After rising from the board they cut the skins of the sacrificed goats in pieces, and covered with some of these parts jf their bodies, in imitation of tho deity, represented ns half clad in goat skins.? With tho other pieces converted into diongs, they ran through tho streets, strikng everybody they met, particularly woncn, who courted the blow, from the belief .hat it averted sterility and tho pains of ravail. The ceremonies of the festival vcrc supposed to symbolize the purification if the people. If it had any such power .he revival of the Lupcrcalia would be advisable hero, where political sins are gricvlus and innumerable. To purify New York natcrially nud morally, the Lupcrculia itould need to bo extended throughout the fear.?N. Y Paper. A Successful Man on Morals.? Boys, listen to mo. I am not sixty years lid and have made 850,000 by my own ixcrtious, I have a fair English education ind am tolerably well informed; but had 1 inly known what I was capable of doing at fourteen years of age, I this day could have wice the education, been better informed, with a higher standard of morals?a hotter ind wiser man in every respect, with double '.he property. The trouble was, I lost half jf my valuable time between fourteen and thirty, because I thought there was nothing in me and it wa9 not worth while to try. I am persuaded that the same feeling keeps many a man at the bottom round of the ladder all his life ; whereas, if he would take hold with a steady, firm hand, and go slow., but sure, the result would astonish mm in thirty years. Try it, boys; use rigid e:onomy of lime and means; acquire all the useful knowledge you can ; keep your morals as pure as possible; be strictly temperate ; have faith in God; always tell the truth. Your reward will be certain, both in time and eternity. Remember that one ounce of perseverance, seasoned with truth, is worth a pound of brains without truth. The average man places too high un estimate on brains and money. Roys, what I have said is our Arminian doctrine, and is full of truth. Now, let us hear the Culvinist's side. The sins of the parents are visited upon the children to the third and fourth frpneration. If vnur mntliiw wus a wise woman, full of virtue and truth; your father a model of firmness, temperance and truth; and your grandparents on both sides of noble s?.ock?there is no telling what you may accomplish. Hut if your mother was a weak woman, lacking in virtue; your father a debauch and vagabond; your grandparents base people?the chances arc against you. Blood will tell. But the redeeming point is this: Almost any of us have enough good blood in our veins, if properly trained, to bring us to the front so wo can make our mark ; and there are but few of us who have not enough bad blood in our make up to sink us into tho depths of infumy, if iudulged iu. So, at last, we have our destiny greatly in our own hands. ? G. Ji. in Rural World. Protecting Grapes.?A correspondent of the New York Evening Post writes that he tried some grapes with pnper bags, and found that they did good service. He says: "Procuring common paper sacks 4x6 inches, I sacked fifty bunches when the grapes were anout trie size 01 peas. J no result?wnile my others have been gono three weeks, many destroyed by birds and bees, I have he fifty bunches perfectly ripened?with)ut 8pot?the skin much thinner t.ian those ;rowu without sacks. Grapes as sweet as honey. My experiment was with the Concord, and another year I shall have faith to ;over all good bunches." Marble Work! I HAVE A LARGE STOCK OF PLAIN MARBLE WORK ON HAND.
