TinonLoTe Story. George Alfred Townsend, in the Chicago Tri fiu^Hmtea'frOTr Salt Laie;as follows : A Mormon, who was called Brother Nehi Gibbons, took a wife at the blooming age of 25. He was pious and industrious, and seemed to be perfectly satisfied with his bride, whose name was unfortunate fox the heroine, being plain Mary Ann. She was the best of wives, and she sang in the choir, bore Nehi a child, and helped to cultivate his vine and fig tree. Their apricots and pear trees grew ana flour? ished, their cattle and sheep increased, and nothing Beamed win ting in this comfortable establishment, which was the envy of every youthful saint. Still, there was a skelleton in the closet.? Mary Ann had a secret and a passion. She wanted Nehi to take a second wife! This was not only, because ho was a good and true map, v and'devoted and able-bodied, but because she had set her mind upon the other wife he was to take. Mary Ann wanted. to provide for her bosom-friend, Susfa, who was in every way de? serving of Nehi's affection and who loved Nehi as purely and as really as Mary Ann herself! They had conferred together about it. Mary Ann, who conld not be nappy whore Susan was not?even at Nehi's Bide?Had broken the sub? ject to Susan, and her clearest suspicious were ce*ifinned by {he secmt disclosure that both the' j ladies loved the same saint. . Far from feeling indignant at this frank and Mm confidence, Nehi's wife received it with delight. She gave her maiden friend every as? surance that their mutual choice was worthy of their United ambition, and they set to work to compel Nehi to accept another Mrs. Gibbons. It being unseemly for Susan to do more than put herself as frequently as possible in Mr. Gib? bon's* way, the plot ripened slowly, and, on con? ferring with one of the Bishops of the Church, he recommended both ladies to make the con? summation a subject of prayer. They lifted up their hearts together that it might be revealed to Nehi what good gifts he was neglecting. But Nehi hardened his heart, andtefused to extend his tablecloth. He was yet ignorant of tha new helpmate intended for him, but on the suggestion of Mrs. Gibbon3 that he was not glorifying his man hooid and his family, he said that a pair was enough, and that be had no wish to marry. Under these circumstances, a little extreme di flomacy was adjudged necessary, and Mrs. Gib ons, to compel a marriage, declared that her household work was too onerous, and finally affected to be grievouslv ill. Nehi Gibbons, unable to resist this ? description of appeal, obeyed the desire of his wife, Mary Ann, but the woman he married?was not Susan I He was too blind to guess the person intended, and he married an entirely different woman. Grave complications ensued upon this pre oipitate action of Nehi Gibbons. The peace of his family w?s disturbed, and none the less be? cause, after the usual period, the second Mrs. Gibbons had a baby. Mary Ann, redoubling her efforts, met with no other success than that Mr. Gibbons took a third wife, and this time also it failed to be Susan. ..The third ofibrt was more directly made, and with less diplomacy, Mrs. Gibbons the first suggesting expressly that her choice washer bosom friend; and the pow? er of candor was never so well attested as on this occasion, for Mr. Gibbons answered: "Had I thought Susan would have accepted me, my dear Mary Ahn, I should have made her my wife before I proposed to you I" Thus piety and patience were crowned, friendship was. rewarded, and Susan and Mary Ann being lovely in life, in wedlock were not divided. ? \? Useful Recipes. tBJ^TrJDDiNG^Tbree eggs, well beaten, with ? one cop of sugar; add one cap off milk and half a cup of bu-rter; stir into this one cop of rice well cooked: then add several; slices of citron chopped fine. Bako quickly. ?. GxsraEB Cae?$-~One cup of molasses, one j ?f sugar, one of lard; flavor well with ginger; j one teaspoonful of soda dissolved in a little water; add flour enough to make a stiff dough; VoQ oat very thin; bake quickly in a hot overt. Substitute foe Cream in'Coffee.?Beat j the white of an egg to a froth; put to it a small lump of butter, and then the coffee into j it gradual!-so that it may not curdle. It is difficult to distinguish the taste from fresh cream. A very palatable luncheon is made as follows : Cot a shoe of bread an inch thick; pare the crust and toast very slightly on one side. Cut ft slice of cheese a quarter of an inch thick, not so large as the bread by half an inch on each [ side; pare off the rind, lay it on the toasted bread, place on a flat tin plate, and put in the even ten minutes. Mix a quarter of a tea - spoonful of Bait with mustard, and a sprinkle oft pepper, and stir into the toasted cheese, when it is ready to be eaten. Coooanut Pudding ob Pies.?Break the ant, save the milk ; take out the meat and grate it very fine; take equal weight of sugar and cceoanttt, and half the quantity of butter ; rob the butter and sugar to a cream; take five ??whites and yelks, beaten separately very j ; one cup of milk and the milk of the co coanut, and a lemon. Line the dish with a j aice paste, pat in the padding and bake one; hemr. Cover 'the rim with a paper to prevent Writing. This recipe will answer equally as well for pies as for padding. It will make | three pies* Cut Worms.?It is very annoying, after having set out a nice lot of sweet potato or cabbage plants, to see them cut down, one by one, by these worms. A correspondent writes: We have tried ashes, lime, soot, and, in fact, almost everything we have ever beard of; but never found anything effectual until, by acci? dent, we found" three or four of the worms, one morning, gathered under a small board, which had been left by some children on a sweet po? tato hill. Acting upon this hint, we placed small pieces of board,, large chips, etc., all through the patch, and we trapped them by hundreds. The boards must be lifted early in the morning, and, on very warm days, again about noon. A little care, for a few days, will clear these pestu out of a garden. One trial w?l satisfy any person of the merits of this plan*. ,a0NlON Ormaloo.?Onions are a cheap, wholesome vegeiable. So are potatoes; onfv rather plebian, aid sometimes despised by rich people. Onions, too, are not always a favorite with everybody, though I think they would be with most people if made into ormaloo, as they are-iO/that style palatable, delicate, and leave do disagreeable odor on the breath after eat? ing. Boil a dozen good sized onions until thor? oughly cooked. Boil at the same time the same- number of potatoes until perfectly done. Pat both onions and potatoes, smoking hot, into a deep dish or bowl, pour in a pint of | sweet mile, a trifle more if necessary; break in three eggs, season with salt and pepper, and mash np as expeditiously as possible with a ?;stle until there is not a vestage of a lump ft, and a complete amalgamation is achieved.. The mass may be artistically put up in blonc mange or jelly moulds, or served in vegetable dishes, and is perhaps the most palatable dish that ean be made out of any two vegetables in use. ?

If you would be pungent, be brief; for it is with words as with sunbeams?the more they tre condensed-the deeper they bum. . Be Liberal to Yotjb Fakms.?Be liberal to your farms and they will be liberal to you. A farm is very much in one respect like a look ing-glas??it reflects the character of the owner exactly. If he is. parsimonious his farm will show it. If ho is a man of taste, his buildings, fences, and general arrangements of his farm will tell the tale. No effort on his part to dis? guise his real -thoughts or sentiments, will avail anything bo long as the operations of his farm ?belie his words. The farmer who invests freely in his farm is sure to be paid well for His risk and trouble. Liberality in providing utensils, says the Western Rural, is the saving of both time and labor. The more perfect the farmer's tools, the more profitable are they. So, also, it is with his working cattle and his stock. The more perfect in their kinds are ever the most profitable. Liberality in good barns and warm shelters is the source, of health, strength and comfort to animals; causes them to thrivo ou less food, and secures from damage all sorts of crops. Liberality also in the provision of food for domestic animals is the source of flesh, muscle and manure. Liberality to the earth, in seed, culture and compost, is the source of its beauty. Thus it is in. agriculture, as ih everjr part of creation, a wise and paternal Providence has inseparably connected our duty and happiness. In raising animals, the condi? tion of his success is kindness and benevolence toward! them. In cultivating the earth, the condition of a man's success is his industry upon it. mO O CS? ?

An experienced railroad traveler is not able to decide what position in a train is safest.
