' ^ ^ * Of course I do not claim to be a model housekeper; but Adolphus well knew that I was the child of aristocratic parents, and he had fair warning. too, as my father said, on giving me to him,, that I was a good girl, an educated young lady, and with a little patience and perseverance could be developed into a real helpmeet. "I take her for better and for worse, my dear Mr. Hartshorn," he said, "and I really believe that none of us will live to regret my union with your only child." Of course, we all hoped so and believed so; for Adolphus Marston was a fine young man, of good family, and with habits of life above the average. So matters were consummated, I becoming his willing bride. At first we took our meals at the nearest restaurant, as our new cottage was not yet fitted, to the requirements of my fastidious new husband. I had resolved from the very first not to ruffle his temper; and while mine was not 1 of the sweetest, I being to some intents and purposes a spoiled child, I decided to hold my peace if the heavens fell. I saw a growing impatience on his part, however, and could easily see that taking his meals at a cafe was decidedly annoying on account of the delays of orders, the muddy coffee, the impertinence of waiters, and other disagreeable etceteras. Finally I ventured to ask him if he was tired of taking his meals out. He was very tired, and was now ready for business, the business of housekeeping. ".But, uoipny, may 1 asK me uamc of our housekeeper?" "It is Adolphus Marston!" I simply stared, for so far as I was aware, he knew little or nothing of the culinary art. I patiently awaited coming events, which were now rapidly easting their shadows before. Not long after this we were happily settled in our new home; the restaurant was abandoned for all time, and our larder filled to repletion. Of course our first venture was breakfast, and 1 wondered at his remaining in bed so late; as it was an excessively cold morning, the sitting room and kitchen fires would both need tending, and lie was due at the office at 8 o'clock. I was later awakened however from a light nap by hearing Adolphus moving hurriedly about the sitting room. An intense chillness was in the atmosphere, and there seemed to be trouble of some kind. I wondred what it was, but I did not wonder audibly. Silence seemed to be | golden at this hour. Presently I heard * J -1- *Vi a Iritrthon ctoirc Aaoipuus UC3LCUU IUC and arising, I inspected the sitting room. It was a sight to behold. Ashes to right of me, ashes to left of me, ashes everywhere. I could have sat down and cried; but as he haa not lose .. patterree why should I? So, on hearing his returning footsteps hastily retired, and when he re-entered the room loaded with kindling wood paper, shavings and a whole box of matches, I was as unconscious as the seven sleepers. But poking his chilled nose through the portieres Adolphus announced: "Hortense, the sitting room fire is out." "Indeed!" "And the fire is also out in the kitchen stove." "Can't I help you?" "Oh, no! I'm the housekeeper for one week. At the end of that tim I shall either commit suicide go to a lunatic asylum or fall into a high fever." After more noise than a threshing machine, and dust, smoke and some remarks Adolphus announced to himself that the fire was going, as soon as he left the room I arose and dressed, not to receive callers, but in my commonest gown, as from present indication I knew that the unexpected was sure to happen, and it did. I understood very little about a broom, and much less about a carpet sweeper, but between them both I managed to make the sitting room presentable. Then a call from the kitchen. "Hortense are you up? " "Yes, dear." "How much water do you put in bis cuit flour?' "Just a little, so it will knead, Dolphy, dear." A rattle of dishes, a noise of spoons and moulding board, then,? "Hortense, how much cream of tartar for a batch of biscuit?" "I guess a teaspoonful." "How much soda?" "I gless a teaspoonful." "You could tell me what a quaver, a demi-semi-quaver is in musi<\ a bar, a breve, a crochet, a chord, and not guess at it. So don't guess a teasponnful, but how much soda." "Enough to suit the taste." "Tastes differ." "So do cooks." A half hour passed away, I did not dare to descend to the kitchen; the noise there was simply overwhelming. I could hear him bang the roller over the moulding boarcT"*then crash! He had dropped a dish, and I heard him say he didn't see how a dish could break into so many pieces. Later I heard the oven door snap to, a few hasty steps, and then a deathly silence. What could it mean? Why this stillness? Had he fallen in a fit from mental excitement? Or was he quietly strapping his razor preparatory to cutting his throat? The suspense was horrible. I could not bear it! How cruel of me not to share his morning's troubles! "Hortense!" The name came with double exclamations, and the voice seemed natural. "What, dear Dolphy?" "Breakfast is ready!" What a relief! I repaired to the j room below; sitting in front of the i stove, his chair tilted back, his feet elevated to a level with his breast, a glow of culinary satisfaction over, spreading his face Adolphus said: 1 "Hortense. the new cook presents the compliments of the morning, announces his bill of fare as consisting of hot biscuit, hot coffee, new creamy ~t butte.*,. and the complete solution of the servant question. Please be seat ed, while I, at the head of the table, will pour the coffee, pass the butter, tender the biscuit, and as maid of all work, carry off the honors of the day!" I was only too glad to acquiesce, for I had developed something of an appe? tite. and the prospective succes Bof our first housekeeping venture filled MS with those indescribable ^Motions every new wife must feeh "I certainly congratulate you, dear Dolphy," I said, seating tayself at the table, upon which was steaming coffee, rows of plump biscuit, and, bearaI ing over all, my husDand's glowing ' countenance, "Hortense, we have settled the ser' vant question forever and a day." "How?" "If the servant faileth, and the new wife is not a cook, turn immediately i to the new husband, and if possessed ; oi any Drains, ne win suuu sum. ciuiug J room and kitchen Arcs, prepare hot i rolls, gems or biscuit, as the case may ! be. Eureka! I may well exclaim.) I Hortense, allow me to assist you to a [ beautifully golden biscuit!" j They were golden, and no mistake, i The soda had not been spared, and the ; hot oven had done its work. "Are they all right, Hortense?" j "Very fair, considering " "Considering? Do you mean to say i his toots? Try the coffee. The aroma i I have not beaten the cafe man out of | is beyond compare." It did have aroma, but as coffee it was flat, va"pid. and altogether without character; and the creamery butI tcr! It was the poorest kitchen cookj ing butter! i could not eat. "Dolphy, let's go down to the restaurant. get a good square meal, return i home, sand for your mother and my j mother, and hold a meeting, preparatory to taking our initial steps in successful housekeeping; for you cannot cook, I cannot cook, and therefore somebody must come who can. Am I unreasonable?" "I guess not." "Shall we do it?" "By all means." And it all resulted in the fact that our mothers secured us a cook, a i chambermaid, a washerman, and i though Adolpus has not solved the 1 mooted servant question, I am still alive, and he has not committed suicide nor made any more golden biscuit - Waverley Magazine. AN UNFINISHED STORY. A Point Where in Telling It the Rer. Dr. Harrow* Always Stops. The Rev. Dr. John Henry Barrows, president of Oberlin College, who fori merly preached to a Chicago Congregation, tells a little story concerning an experience of his own that may be worth passing along. It was at the time that Dr Barrows was making arrangements for the holding of the great congress of religions here. He had an immense correspondence to take care j of, and found it necessary to employ a stenographer. The young lady was pretty. It is not to be inferred that i there arc any but pretty lady stenoj graphers, but the one employed by j Dr. Barrows was especially cbmely. The doctor fitted up a workroom i on the third floor of his house, where i he and the stenographer toiled hard ! day after day, undisturbed by callers i and well away from the noises of the | streets. . Tho Ti-nrlf nt nrpnnrinc fnr t.hft ron j gress was still going forward on the j 14th of February, when the doctor's lit! tie son became excited over the sendi ingand receiving of-valentines.-The boy had been running about the neighbor hood handing love tokens to the childj ren he knew and many had come to j him. when he remembered that he had j a father up on the third floor, in addii tion to the One in Heaven. Going to | his mother, he proposed that they 1 send up a valentine. "Well," said Mrs. Barrows, "it is very j nice of you to remember father. How | would it do for me to write a valentine ! for him and let you take it up?" The boy was delighed at the idea and j his mother wrote upon the sheet of j paper: I "Please kiss the bearer." This she placed in an envelope, 1 which was properly sealed and addressed to the doctor. The boy started up! stairs with his valentine, but he had j been running around a good deal durj ing the morning and his legs were j weary. When he had reached the secj ond floor he met the pretty stenog rapher, who had started out after pes | tage stamps or something, and asked j ii she wouldn't be kind enough to ; hand the note to his father, i She took the envelope, gave the j child a pat on the check and ran back i upstairs, where?perhaps prompted by J some feminine curiosity?she waited 1 while Dr. Barrows opened his valentine and read, in his wife's handwriting: "Please kiss the bearer."

As the result of studies oh New Jersey mosquitoes last summer. Professor John B. Smith of Hutgers college says that, not only will the insects travel long distances from their breedingplace, but on favorable evenings largo swarms rise and are carried during the night by winds. The direction in which they go is often seaward. Swarms have been met 15 miles from the shore, a.nd they are common five miles from shore. Migration of mosquitoes, with the aid of the winds. Professor Smith regards as of much importance, and as rendering the control cf the mosquito nuisance a state rather than a local affair. The Anopheles mosquitoes continue to breed long after frost has set in, and even a covering of ice on ponds is not fatal to their larvae and pupae. Some of the meteorites that fall upon the earth possess a peculiar structure, indicating that they have more than once been in a molten condition. Dr. Berwerth of Vienna concludes, as the result of his studied of this class of meteorites, that they came originally from a volcana situated in some distant part of space, but that before reaching the earth they were subjected to great heat which metamorphosed their structure. To explain this he suggests thpt in the course of their celestial journey they may have passed through the atmosphere of a. sun, or may have been fused through the sudden birth of a new and neighboring star. The heat developed during their fall through our atmosphere is not sufficient to explain the changes that they have undergone.

In a recent case in which a certain mine manager was sentenced to two years' imprisonment at Brisbane for obtaining money by false pretences, amusing particulars of the method in which miDing should not be conducted were given in the following letter, which was. found locked in the prisoner's safe and which was read in court: "I am pestered with visitors, all watching progress, and my presence both at drill and shaft is absolutely necessary. For instance the shaft in which we obtained that splendid return of gold?you know it was compulsory that the ground should 'cave in'?well, that made it imperative that I should do the work myself, and after the small-sized timber had been put in over night I made tho remark that the ground was. running, and was afraid that it might 'cave in.'

I was working on the wash and was in a duece of a fix. But I professed to be glad to sea him and invited him to take a dishful and wash it. He did so. Meantime I made a clay pill, put a grain of gold in it, and put it into my mouth. When he handed me the dish I promptly did a sneezing fit and the pill accident ly fell into the dish, and you ought to have seen his face when he washed it! He behaved like a schoolboy, shook hands with me and generally played the fool. I invited him to try another dish. But no, he was more than satisfied, had taken the dirt himself and had washed it.'

LIFE INSURANCE SOLICITING A5 AN UI*-TO-DATE BUSINESS j There Is Plenty of Room at the Bottom?Some Interesting Facts by Jas. W. Alexander, in "Success." ! In the other professions, it is said | that there is plenty of room at the top. | In life insurance, there is plenty of i room at the bottom; that is, for young j fellows just beginning. To one man who is insured for his life, there are many who might be. Even in New York city, where there are more agents in proportion to population than anywhere else in this country, not one-tenth of the 1 Geld is covered. It is a field that keeps constantly renewing itself.

There is a considerable number of men in this country who earn, as life insurance aeents. more money every year than is paid to the president of the United States. The income of a few is nearly double the president's sa'ary. Almost without exception, these men began with no capital but brains and energy. Of course, they have excep tional qualities, the chief of which are energy, will power and common aense. Hardly any of them can be said to have unusually brilliant minds, and very few of them are college graduates. But they know the world and know men. They have confidence in themselves, j and strength of wi'l.

Nothing is left undone that will help the agents, for they are, of course*the 1 bone and sinew of the company. We ' are all workers together for a com: mon end. If, in addition to ability as a field worker, a man has executive ability, he may achieve position in the insurance business of unusually large rewards and great power. He may become, first, a general manager?that is, the manager of a certain district, * directing the work of all the agents therein. These places are much ' sought for, as the general agent usually receives a commission on the re; turns of all agents under him, and has an excellent vantage ground for the writing of a very large personal busi. ness. There are, of course, various I grades of districts, the best men work[ ing up to the control of the most re. munerative ones. The man who re| gards the work as a makeshift is the , one who fails. An agent must be able, to some extent. to direct and mold the mind of the "prospect" who has not been educated up to the insurance idea. To accomplish this, it is obvious that he must inspire confidence and possess a nprsnnaiitv of sufficient force to give f "" ? _ his words weight. The men. who have 1 won the remarkable success in the in. surance field go beyond this. They are aiways enthusiastic and optimistic; and, as surely as a burning flame ; will light a match, they communicate I their enthusiasm to others. I believe that any man of average s ability, industry and strength of char( acter can attain, in the insurance busit ness, an entirely satisfactory position . in life.
