A HARROWING RIDE. ""
Dlckenw' Trip by itngeconch From
Cleveland to Sandaaky.
When Charles Dickens visited America
In 1342, he traveled by stagecoach
from Cleveland to Sandusky, O. Describing
his experience, he wrote:
"At one time we were all thrown together
In a heap at the bottom of the
conch, nnd at another we were crushing
our heads against the roof. Now
the coach was lying on the tnils of the
two wheelers, nnd now It was rearing
up In the air. The driver, who certainly
got over the ground in u manner
quite miraculous, so twisted nnd turned
the team in forcing a pussage corkscrew
fashion through the hogs nnd ,
swnmps that it was a common clrcum- ,
stance on looking out of the window to
see tho coachman with the ends of a
pair of reins in his hands, apparently
driving nothing, nnd the leaders staring
unexpectedly at one from the back
of the coach, as If they had some idea
of getting up behind.
"A great portion of the way wns over
Wlint is called n 'corduroy road,' which
Is ninde by throwing trunks of trees
Into a marsh nnd leaving them to settle
there. The very slightest of the
jolts with which the ponderous carriage
fell from log to log was enough,
It seemed, to have dislocated all tho
bones in the human body. It would be
Impossible to experience a similar set
of sensations in any other circumstances
unless perhaps in attempting
to go up to tho top of St. Paul's in an
omnibus."
This description serves to illustrate
the condition of our country ronds, generally
speaking, as they were half a
century ago except in a few wealthy
communities. There has been a wonderful
change since then.

f CORN BREAD. ??
Fond Rcrollrctloni of tlio Day* ot
in? norcnke nnd Klnpjnclts.
With pood meal nnd n cook following
the lessons nnd traditions of the old
regime delicious bread may be bnked
of lndinn meal. But we have grave
doubts whether It can be bnked as well
In a stove as In an open fireplace; but,
alas, of the latter only n few remain.
The ashenke, of course, must have
nshes. They are Indispensable. As
well try to produce a mint julep without
mint. On the other hand, "flapJacks"
need only a well greased frying
pan, but skill is required to turn them.
That Is done by pitching them out of
the pan Into the nlr nnd making thorn
come down flap on the other side. The
corn pone may be cooked in a stove or
range.
The hoeenkc was originally cooked
on a hoe in the fields and in the negro
cabin. A skillet will do well enough
for it, but must be well greased at the
bottom. So, too, with respect to egg
or batter bread. As for corn mufilns,
the appliances of a range arc admirably
adapted to them.
Wo wish some millionaire would fit
up n Virginia country home in antebellum
style nnd among other things
have In it a big open fireplace, a black
cook in a gingham dress, with a red
bandanna on her head, nnd qjso have
a half here mint bed, an icehouse and
an old time garden filled with raspberries
nnd gooseberries, thyme, Bage, currants
nnd all the ordinary table vegetables.
When one of those old time homes
and gardens nnd kitchens is restored
nnd the host nnd hostess have entered
Into possession, we desire to be listed
as a frequent guest, with a reserved
sent in the chimney corner. Then all
we shall want will be tlie zest, the appetite,
the voraciousness we possessed
when we could eat eighteen rolls nnd
six eggs for breakfast and consume a
whole wntermelon between inenls. But,
nlns, It would be easier to restore old
walls nnd open fireplaces than to bring
back the digestion and storago capacity
of n youth that's gone, of a time that's
pnBi ana never can return.?illcbmoud

"Toll you a story? Why, yes, I might

ny line." The letter carrier blew a
>enrly wreath of smoke upward and
lecked the dead ash from bis cigar,
lays the Denver News. "Det nic see.
["here's an old lady on my route down
n Alabama who sits knitting the llveong
day by the front room window,
ivery morning and afternoon when I
vbistle at the door of lier next door
lcigbbor she lays down lier knitting
md peers with a tired, eager face out
>f that window until I go by. She's
tot a boy somewhere out west lie

wlce each day the whole year through
he sits there, with that anxious look,

"That reminds me," said a younger

y, "of a pretty baby on my route In a
Louisiana city. She's a dainty tot

Tipping down the walk to meet mo

low far away her mamma was. One
lay she came without a letter, and
here was pain in the grent, sweet eyes.
Mr. Postman, baby wnnts a letter
'rom mamma, riease, Mr. Postman,

FRUITS AND FLOWERS.
Water In which mignonette has been
(laced should be changed often, since
t quickly becomes foul.
The best use to make of old bones
8 to break them up and bury them
lear .. .e roots of fruit trees and grapevines.
By sowing nitrate of soda In small
juantitics In showery weather under
rees a most beautiful verdure will be
>btaincd.
It Is not a good plan to fill an old
jrchard with young trees. The soil
s too much exhausted by the growth
>f the former occupants.
Geraniums bloom most satisfactorily
svhen grown In comparatively small
pots and soil which is termed rich, but
not rank with excessive manure.
Stir, spado, rake and pulverize soil
thoroughly before planting or sowing.
The importance of this work cannot be
overestimated if you desire lino blossoms.
Geraniums that have been used for
summer bloomers will not flower again
until the late spring months, i'lants
for winter blooming should be grown
especially for this purpose.

Tupples ufter weaning will keep
strong and healthy and will grow fast
If fed only on fresh buttermilk and
corn bread, with soup instead of the
buttermilk twice n week, till they are
five or six mouths old. Do not feed
buvui o?tui <1111iv. iveep me puppies
where they can get plenty of exercise.
Do not crowd them. Arrange their
iennels so that they can go in and out
their sleeping quarters. If fed In
[he same vessels, some dogs get more
han their share of food and lose their
manners also, l-'asten a number of
chains where they eat at such disanccs
that no one can reach the other:
[hen feed in individual pans. Dive Utile
medicine and plenty of exercise,
tnd you will then have strong, healthy
logs. An hour's run every day In the
( ear in the tields and woods, weather
permitting, Is essential to good health.

A habit of looking at things from a
distorted angle, of focusing the vision
?n things that depress and suggest untiapplness
and misery, Is a destroyer of
happiness and success. A man who
;ocs about with a funereal face, thinking
"hard times," fearing "dull seasons,"
disaster, panic and falluro
wherever his interests center, is never
1 happy man, rarely a successful one.
