Koniarkable Exposition of Masonic Mysteries. ny A. couii, .?it. 1 rom east to went, mid between north and Bouth, Free-Masonry extends; and in every clinic are Masons lo be found. This institution issa'd to be supported by? Wisdom, Strength, nd Iii a ?ty ; lie cause it is necessary that there should be wisdom to contrive, strength to support, and beauty to adorn, all great and impor tant undertakings. Its covering is no less than a clouded canopy, or a starry-decked heaven, where all good Masons hope at Inst lo arrive, by the aid ol' thc theological ladder which .Jacob, in his vision, saw ascending from carib to heaven; tho three principal rounds bf which arc demonstrated Faith, Hope and Charily : and which udmoti ish us to have faith in God, hope in im mortality, and charity to all mankind. The greatest ol these is charily ; for our faitli may be lost in sight ; hope ends in fruition; but charity extends beyond the grave, through tile boundless realms of eternity. I flatter myself I HI? IV something {?bout secret societies, i have had a passion for that sorl of thing ever since I was old enough to tell lies, i have scouted around pretty extensively among the differeul organizations. I have been a Fenian and an Orangeman, and a Good Templar, and a Son ot Malta, and also a Counterfeiter. I have belonged to the Sons of Temperance, and the Odd Fel lows, and the Hand ol' JJope, the Young Men's Christian Association and a band oi robbers. I have been in everythiug, and I thought i knew every thing, almost, but I did not. One. ?lay about three months ago I was speaking lo a friend in relation to thc Masons, when he gave i; i ii full explanation concerning them, nod I became erjiatunted with Masonry, and concluded to try it loo ; nnd since I join ed that organization ? have discovered that there are several things connected therewith that outsiders don't know just a pretty good deal about. Now, I pro pose making these secrets public, not out of compassion for my fellow men who may be tending towards Masonry, and act as a warning, aud HO on, because I have not gotn spark of human kindness, in my breast, and would rather seo every mother's son put to thc torture than not, because 1 have a spite against the fellow who initiated me, wiio made tho irons too hot when he we. t to brand mo aud tho goat too frisky r hen I went to ride him, and treated mo with n roughness generally that tho occasion did not war rant. Before fulminating my narrative I will state for the i n form r t ion of those who dou't know, that Masonry is about six hundred thousand years old. it was old whou the fraternity got into trouble at the tower of Hihel, and it was old when Adam first put on his uprou ns Grand Muster of Kdcn Lodge. As a more con vincing truth ns to ils antiquity, I would just mention that u part of miners, tho other day, in one of their excavations, came upon tho petrified remains of u Masonic Lodge, with tho members in their places aud all complete ; and emi nent geologists who havo examined tho fossils aro of the opinion that these bod ies havo been embedded in the rock for moro than fifteen thousand years. On thc evening I was to bo initiated I made my will thinking I would neverngain ?ce li. nab and the children, mid took a most affecting leave of my family. Thus prepared, I sturted for the Lodge, nccom fanied by brother John Smith, S. lt. 8. \ T., who was to seo mo through. We arrived at the dour and hnd no dilhculty in getting through the first, entrance ; but ntthe second when we knocked a flat little fellow looked out through a small round hole in the door, ana put this startling interrogatory to Uro. Hm i th : Chetuxchronhighcockalorum ? to which Brother Smith replied, cheerfully, ns ho understood the ropes: Nixmydolly whac do. Tho little fellow then said : Flod zest compbrilidy umtrum ; and my conductor giving a satisfactory answer, wo wore then permitted to enter. Before I bad time to look around me to locate things, a lean, slab-sided, long-legged fellow came up to me and knocked me over on the floor with a club ; he then got on rae aud stood on my feot, and another savage looking marauder mnde a rush at me as 1 attempted to rise up, and ho brought mo down to thc floor again. I now begun to feel for my six shooter to defend myself, but I hud unfortunately left it at home. After being overpower ed and had uudergone this exhilarating exercise for about fivo minutes, they stretched me out on n bench and exam ined my teeth, pinched all my muscles, and stuck pius into me all over, and put cayenne popper up my nostrils, ?nd poured raoulten lead up my trowsers' pockets, and pulled hair out of the back of my neck with red hot pincers, with a view, I suppose, to make mo feel unem barrassed and at home. But now, you must anticipate the balance. * * * * * * When I came to my senses I was alone in the ante room of thc Lodge. It was o lively and cheerfully apartment. A couple of crockodiles were amusing themselves in a corner, and a few full grown rattlesnakes were practicing the Hying trapeze on a stove-pipe. The fur niture consisted chiefly of half a dozen mummies, the skclotons nf Capt. Kidd, Lucretia Borgia, Guy Fawha, Jack the Giant Killer, Oliver Cromwell, the Wan dering Jew, William the Conqueror, Christopher Columbus, and Dick Tur pin ; a flying machine, three barrels of gunnower, and a healthy and well devel oped wild cat. Just then half a dozen pirates, all clad in aprons and sashes, rushed into tho room with an outlandish whoop. One of them the biggest and ugliest, who appeared to be tho chief, ordered the attendants, in a voice of thunder, to trot out the animal. The attendants disappeared, but immediately reappeared leading an iron clad goat, a regular double decker, with sixteen horns, n pair of wings, and seven or eight tails stuck all over him. My eyes were then bandaged and 1 waa told to mount. I aaid, "Gentlemen, if you will excuse me, I would rather not, as I am not in the habit of riding fiery animals, and I am not accustomed to going up in a balloon ; and besides I have got an engagement down town. My wife wanta to see me particularly; I will be back in a few minutes. I rather think my house is on fire, but I will be back in a few minutes -yes. upon honor, gentlemen, in a few" -Before I could finish my sentence I was siezed and planted firmly astride the in fernal goat.. Somebody then said, "Let fa," and nu rc enough awav be went, and etickittgto him like a leach to a raw hide. I havo been through a great many perilous ababos ; I bavo taken part in an electiofc fight; I hare been down in a railway collision, and np in a steamboat explosion ; . I have fallen down three flight? of stairs, and walked sut of a thrco-story window, but this goat oxcur aion beat them all. When I come to re flect in cold blood, I wonder that lever came out alive. The furious beast kick ed, and bleated, and rolled over, and turned back and front somersaults, which finally caused gue to let go my grip, and tho anima! at once drove me against tho ceiling atid.iunderneath the chair?, nt which time tho bandage fell from roy eyes, an*; theie1 saw sights too fearful to describa. . Tho goat vanished up tho chimney i inclue flame, and I found .nyeolf in thc center of tho Lodge room, with*} mut fifty Masons in aprons, abd .alogina,- soiling Uko "Old Hundred," and some- of them every now and then would say,'jam?te ft be." The reit of the members were standing on their heads in tb'e^fler^nt corners, all but tha cadaverous looking buccaneer, who ap peared to fcc the bead of the department Soon they left off dancing, and march ing around (lie room chanting au inspir- 1 ing dirge. I was then hauled up in front of the Chief's desk, who thus addressed i mc: "Hro. Kobb, you ore now one of us. You arc a member of an institution that has lasted over three million years. You aro impervious to mundano influ ences. You are water-proof and fire proof and you are over proof. You can walk through tli<* ri vcr and sit ou a red hot stove with impunity. Mortal man cannot harm you, ami the devil himself mutt curl up lu* tail and walk oil' at your approach. He virtuous, temperate and honest, Mr. (Cobb, and you will lite and die a happy mau." I then assumed a sash and apron, and was duly declared a Mason. Training Schools of Cookery. Mrs. Kinma I'. Dwi og, Superintendent of the Chicago -'..lining .School of Cook ery, writes us that the retient agitation ol culinary subjects hy the C/ironir/e lias attracted attention at the West and Kast. She says : I'erm it me to tell you that most ol thc cooks in all sections of the country are in thc same condition as those in the South, and thal "a practical branch of cookery" is a ritnt neccMiOj of </// schools. Firmly ?inpressed with tin; importance of this subject. I am preparing a series of fookery manuals adapted to the uso of .chools, and suitable for home instruc tion, and hope in the course of limo lo ?ec them introduced i tito every i:chool room and kitchen in the ?and. Two of them have already been published, and I -hall get out two more- liri" on "Salads" iud one on "lilllie Dishes"-before I go to Chautauqua, where I am eugaged to rive lectures and lessons for six weeks in July and August-and others will be published as rapidly as I can find time o prepare them, until I have gone over he whole culinary field. I sm also pre ?aring H lee? ure on "Cookery in .chools," which ? trust I shall gel leis ire, from other labors, to deliver ricca* ional ly during the coming winter. Two ol Mrs. H wing's pamphlets on Ircad and Soup Making have reached is, and appear to be valuable to house miders aud can bo obtained, for Ho cent? ;aoh, by application to the uuthor at WM .'ulton street, Chicago. The best people d the East and West aro patronizing his system of instruction ana iiilroduc* rig it as n conspicuous brandi in tho mblic and private schools. Tho South ms urgent need of the Hamo curriculum. Ye know for.certain that the Chronicle's imitation of this subject lias literally 'gono homo" to many families, and that ho desire for reform is almost unnui nous. A recent writer states as an in toulcstablo fact that the prevailing dis 'ii*c of the present century is dyspepsia ir indigestion, and the watering places of bc country reap rich harvests of ducats rom that class of Americans who, kllhotigh ranked among tho intellectual, ire noted among connoisseurs us not hav ng sufficient intelligence to know how o cat properly. He adds that hundreds if thousands of dollnrs aro expended an malty ut summer resorts by wealthy Vinericans in their effort to patch up or cpair a worn out or exhausted stomach, nade from a lack of tho simplest knowl ;dge of gastronomy. No wonder then lint the French, who aro better versed n t!ie art of cooking than any nation on ho globe, should, iu speaking of Anton inus, says: "The good Lord lion sent you he best of food in plenty, but tbe Devil ms, in most cases, sent cooks to dress it md fouls to cut it." How to co-operato with the Lord in .his matter and how to exercise the de non of tho kitchen who is making tho itomach more of a "diabolical appnrn us" than it need bp, is a matter of HU ?remo interest. We trust the School Jo m miss io ii em may gradually bo led to icc it in that light. A Maine Ulrl. In thc plantation of Oakland, A roos uok county, Maine, there is a girl who lossesses tho faculty of spelling difficult vorda backward without hesitation. Her mme is Hattie M. Drew ; ?he is just past 1er 12th birthday, and resides with her mronts, who uro people of moderato edu ction, living upon a farm. While this itt le girl in bright and ?mart ns tho av erage of her mate", sha never attracted my particular attention until, n little nore than a year ago, it was accidentally Uncovered that she possessed the singu ar gift of spelling any word with which ibo was acquainted backward and with* nit hesitation. At a spelling match ccenlly held in tho Behool which she ittends, without any warning, slio stood >efore tho audience for Borne ten min non, spelling words selected ut random, onie for their difficulty of combination, mt without any previous knowledge of vhat they were to he, rapidly and" dir ectly, except one or two which she could mt spell in tho proper way, aud when iromptcd in the correct spelling would mracdiately reverse it. Among the rorda which she spelled were these : j?laxy, sysygy, astronomy, robin, pho tography, difficulty, attendance, indivisi ?illly, etc., Bud many other words of iqual length and difficulty. All of these vere applied as rapidly ns the eye could niloc-, without a single misplacement of i letter. Has any other person without .ny training been nble to do this or siin lar feats? In addition, it may be suit!, tpon the testimony of the girl, that "she :an see the words in her mind, and cnows no reason why she should not cad thc letters backward as is usual ?ay." Gratitude of an Unfortunate Man. George White, of Greenville, who was lent to the Penitentiary for killing J.H. Schofield on Christmas day, 1880, and waa recently pardoned bv the Governor, irrites tho following card to the Green rill e News : "Please allow me space to tender my earnest thanks to his Excellency Gover lor Thompson, to Solicitor Orr and to the generous citizens of Greenville for their kindness and sympathy, and to the people who have so nobly aided my fam ily during my long absence. I also return my grateful thanks to Superinten lent Lipscomb and Captain Sligh for meir invariable kindness to me while I aras in the Penitentiary. "I am overwhelmed with sorrow when [ think of the cause of my punishment, sut all can see from it what liquor can io, for if it had not been for that I never n*ould have been in trouble.

How Ut Take Screws Ont of Wood. _ j One nf tho most simple and readiest methods tor loosening a rusted screw ii to apply heat to (be head of the screw. A small har or rod of Iron, flat at the end, If reddened in the fire and applied for a couple or three minutes to the head of the rusted screw, will as soon as it heats the screw, render its withdrawal tis easy hy the ..crew driver a* if it was only a recently inserted screw. As llo re i? a kitchen poker in every house, that in strument, if healed al its extremity, and applied for a few minutes to the screw or -crew?, will ?hi the required work of loosening, and nu ordinary screw driver will du the rest, without causing the least damage, trouble or vexation ol spiril. In ali work above (he common kind, where it is necessary to use screws, and particularly in hinge work and mountings, fancy fastenings and appli ances ulli xcd to joinery ol furniture work, we would advise the oiling of screws or <lipping their points in grease before driving them. This will render them more ca-y to drive, and also to withdraw, ??nd it will undoubtedly retard for a longer lime the action of rusting. Pride That Had a Fall. Those persona who enjoy seeing a haughty spirit suffer a fall should have been on board one of the sleeping cars attached to u through train from Chica* go to Boston a fliort lime ?go. Among its passengers were a middle-aged man and woman from the remote West, who hud evidently come upon sudden riches and were devoting all their energies to advertising thc fact. They were gorge ously dressed ; the woman sported any quantity of diamonds and no occasion for informing the other passengers of the wealth and position of their family was suffered to pass unimproved. They had with them a plug of a boy about fourteen years old. One morning after the pa rents had dressed themselves they dis covered that their hopeful son was still slumbering ami the mother sat to work to arouse him. Repeated calls failing to have any eliect, sho finally had recourse to thump-i and digB in his ribs, where upon the boy evidently dreaming that ho was at home and being stirred up to per form some accustomed duty, bawled out : ' You let me alone and go feed the hogs yourself!" A joyous smile enlivened tho features of thc rest of the travelers. /loston Journal. Kat lug Lemons. A good deal has been said through the papers about the healthfulness of lemons. Tho latest advice as to how to uso them HO us they will do the most ir,ood runs as follows: Most people know the benefit of lemonade before breakfast, but few know how it is moro then dou bled by taking another al night also. The way to get tho belter of a bilious system w ithout tho use of pills or quinine is to take the juice of one, two or three lemons, ns the appetite craves, in aa much icc water as makes it pleasant to drink, without BUgar, before going to bed. In tho morning on rising, or at least half an hour before breakfast, take tho juice of ono lemon in n goblet of water. This will clear the system of humors and bile, with mild efficacy, without any of tho weakening effects of calomel or Congress water. People should not irritate the stomach by eat ing lemons clear; the powerful acid of the juice, which is almost corrosive, infal libly produces inflammation after awhile, but diluted, so that it does not burn or draw the throat, it does its full medicinal work without barm, when the stomach is clear of fond, bas abundant opportunity to work on the system thoroughly. - No one knows the weight of nil other's burden.
