MISS PARLOA ON SOUPS. Tfee Treses Soosekeepcr's Ws.y- of SlaJaHS Xfeem Described la a Xectsre. ''Economy is the vratcliwanl of the French people," said Miss Parloa in her talk upon the characteristics of French cookery at the Nev York Toting Wom an's Christian association, ""and the French, housekeeper, no matter hew simple the dish, excels in the making of it. The market prices are ranch higher in Prance than, here, butter and sugar costing racre than as ranch a One may buy half a lemon or part of a car rot, and it is not thought unusual, and only a sufficient crcrmtitrispirrchased to supply each meal, and an unexpected guest is never provided for." Miss Parlca added that roasting and broiling are hardly kcovm. among the working classes, and pastry is made only in the kitchens of the very "wealthy. An American housewife may take the lead in the making of dainty and fancy desserts, but to a French "weman the making cf scraps and sauces is the most important part of the cook ery. The foil owing imple soup is said to he savory and delici crust Put 3 tahle spGonfuls of butter or meat fat in a soup kettle and pour G-er it 2 quarts of wa ter. Let it cook 10 minutes before add ing a pint cf potatoe s cut into cubes and S leeks washed and sliced thin. Add a teaspconful cf salt and one-third of pepper and allow this to cook very slowly one hour. Break 5 slices of stale bread into pieces and put in the soup tureen, and turn the soup over it when cooked the required length of time. A French vegetable soup is made thus: Cut a large onion into thin slices and put them in a pan with 3 tablespoonf uls of butter. .Let them siraraer together half an hour and add 2 quarts of water. Have prepared a pint of white turnips cut into cubes, the same amount of po tatoes, half a pint of carrots, half a pint of the white part cf the leek cut into thin slices. Add a clove of garlic, an eschalot, a teaspconful of sugar, one third of a teaspocnful of pepper and salt and cook slowly an hour, adding some chopped parsley 15 minutes before the soup is removed from the fire. This soup may also he used for a vegetable puree by pressing it through a coarse sieve, and to a pint cf the thick eoub add a pint of boiling milk. A paste for thickening sauces is kept at hand for constant use. Here is the way to make one that will keep a long time: Cut equal amounts of beef, veal and pork suet in small pieces. Put them in a kettle with very little water and slowly render. Turn off the first fat, and when vcrj hot stir, in flour until it forms a thick paste sbcut a pint of flour to a pint of liquid fat. Put these into a grasiteware vessel and place in an oven and ccok three to four hours. Keep in glass jars covered. HE TURNED ON THE GAS. Asothcr Lucille t c! tlis Youili c5 George Wcsliingtan. Mrs. Pickett, the widew of General Pickett, hero cf the desperats rebel charge at Gettysburg, relates an anec dote of as eld mammy whem she dis covered at Firdcricfcsbcrg and who ver itably believes that she was Washing ton's first nurse. Here is her stcry: "She was an old woman in a linsey WGoisry petticoat azd a bright turban, and we iocrd her in me cf cur jaunts around the city and tenk ahedak picture of her. One of the company asked her in fun if she remembered Washington: you see, she was very eld." " ' 'Deed an deedy I do, mics, ' she an swered glibly. " 'Perhaps you were one of his nurses, mammy.'

A Cro-sr That Ate Clams. "I knew a man once," said a fisher man, "who had a pet crow that used to come down to meet him when he came in from fishing. The crow's owner was a fisherman. THc boat might be among 40 or 50 other boats, all coming in to gether, but the crow never made any mistake. He always knew his own boat. He liked clams, and when he came aboard his owner would knock a couple of fln-ms together that would break one and put the brohen clam down for the crow to eat, and then he would go on rowing, and that's the way they al ways came ashore, the fisherman pulling on the oars and the crow sitting along side of "Hti eating clams."

FERRYBOATS. Siad Thai Were In Use 3. Hcadrea The horse fccats between the cities cf 27ew York and Brooklyn may he cited as early attempts to solve the problem cf transport by water. An interesting feature cf these early corsrrucrfens was the use cf n water wt eel 12 feet cr so in diameter, with 24 floats, the latter in clined slightly to the radius so as to avoid the lifting cf the water, which is eo trcnb&scrae a feature of the radial float. These hcrse boats appear to have been of three general deshzns. In the first a frame, shaped somewhat like the letter "A" or an inverted "U," was mounted to turn around its vertical axis. Four of these frames, dividing the circle into eight parts, made a sort of skeleton cone, and this cone was caused to revolve by eight horses moving in a horizontal circular path about 20 feet in diameter. The face gear, 15 feet in diameter, drove a three foot pinion mounted upon the axis on the water wheel shaft and the wheels were within the frame in an oucnrng between half hulls. The second pfcn was cf a conical Ekeleton frame at an incline cf about one in two, so that the horses had to travel up this inclined surface, causing it to rotate with their weight and trac tion. In the third pfcm a smaller design the paddle wheels were brought into a well between the two half hulls of the boat, catamaran fashion, as in the first arrangement, and the frame was mount ed above the wheels, and its rotating motion was transmitted by intermediate idle wheels to the water wheel shaft. Boats of the first and second class seem to have been about 75 feet long. It is interesting also to observe that the swinging bridge for ferry boat serv ice had been already thought out by Fultcn early in this century, with its counterweight construction and its windlass for making the beats fast. Such boats .eera to have drawn a Ii over two feet cf water and to have had perfectly fiat bottoms, like scows. Pro fessor F. IL Huiton in zine.

"One of General Shelby's saving traits was his ability to say exactly the right thing to the right man in the right place.

It Was Considered a Joke to Tsra Cattle Xnto a UalLrooni. Can any cue tell me anything of the city assembly rooms and the assembly rooms on the Surrey side L e., South wark about the year 1772? The social side of the city about that time is curi ously difficult to get at satisfactorily. For instance, when Catherine Hultort went to London in 1783, being then 27" years of age, she went with a certain: Mr. J. Wcodhonse and his mother. They called for her at 7:30 in the evening, the gentleman being dressed in a suic of pale blue French silk, spotted with pink and green, the coat lined with pink silk, his hair in a bag, a white feather in his hat, a sword by his side and his ruffle and frill of fine point lace. This seems very splendid. At the as sembly the men were chiefly in "dress coats1' meaning probably of blue or pink silk, like that of Mr. Wcodhonse. Those who were not wore "cloth coats, trimmed with narrow gold lace, with waistcoats of silver tissue," and the hair "in a cue, with curls flying ouc on each side of the head." The other ladies were covered with diamonds. The subscription to the city assembly is 3 guineas. There are 200 subscribers and late nights. The sub scribers are the first people in the city. The rooms are lighted with wax The branches for the candies, the urns for the tea and coffee and the baskets for the cakes and macaroons are of silver. I want to know mere about this assem bly. as regarcs tne surrey assemmy, an x can tell vgu about it is that the room was on the ground floor, and that on a. certain night the opening night of the season of 1772 (r) while the dancing was at its height Ecme wag threw open the front door and gave admission to a drove of oxen, which.began to run about in a most terrifying manner. Some of the men drew their swords valiantly, others tumbled down. The ladies faint ed and fell over the men. Caps, hoops, tippets, handkerchiefs, were lying all about the floor, and the oxen bellowed and ran about, threatening with their horns. What would have happened one knows not. But "the sprightly Mrs. Hanniver" presumably a lady con nected with the supper department "coming from the Lactariurn with bub for the gentlemen" "huh" is defined by Webster as a strong malt drink snatched from the master of the cere monies his mcpstick did the M. C. on the Surrey side carry a mcpstick as :i wand of office? and, with so much spirit belabored the hemy tribe that they fled incontrnont. When the company gathered them selves together and picked up what they could, being horribly dishevelled, amid the general wreck hoops gone, wigs pulled to pieces, headgear destroyed, dresses torn they proceeded, I suspect, to refresh themselves with the sprightly Mrs. Hanniver's stimulating bub. If any one will tell me more about this assembly, I shall be grateful. Sir Wal ter Besant in Queen. A Calm TiieC There was a brief but engrossing in- ndent in a woman's life the other day. and she has not realized vet the full de tails of a situation which stunned her completely for the few minutes it lasted. She had gone into anecf the big depart ment stores up town and was standing at a counter waiting for the girl to at tend to her. Then she felt a woman's hand in her pocket. Involuntarily she seized her skirt and was fortunate enough to catch the woman's hand. This happened in a second, and none of the women about her had noticed the inci dent. The pickpocket struggled to free her hand, while the other woman clung to her wrist not with any desire to ar rest her or even to retain her, but merely with the feeling that she was doing something. In either had spoken a word. The first to act was the pickpocket. Her hand was still held, and, with a pretense of grasping the other woman's hand, she cried cut: "This woman is trying to rob me." Everybody turned to leak at the two, and in her gstcn ishment the woman let go the thief's hand. The thief drew her hand suddenly cut of the pocket, and while those about them were gaping at the innocent woman she darted through and escaped. The other woman's head swam, and there was a dark shadow in front of her eyes for a second. But the women about her realized the true situ ation in a moment, and their sympathy was all for her. They helped her to re cover her composure and get into the open air as scon as possible. Xew York Sun- , Insect Conquerors. A recent bulletin of the department of agriculture points out the fact that within the past 15 years there has been a complete change in the chief insect foe of the cotton, plant. Previous to 1SS1 the cotton worm was not only the principal, but almost the sole, insect depredator dreaded on the cotton planta rions. Since that year the cotton worm has gradually disappeared, and a new enemy to the cotton plant, the boll worm, has taken its phice. Such revo lutions in the insect world not infre quently occur, and sometimes they take on the appearance of actual conquests effected by one species over others. In the Sandwich Islands, for instance, a species of ant introduced from abroad is driving out all other insects, the only native species that seems able to with stand it being the earwig.

In the days of the "old army" on the tMnner, when military posts were Eorae times hundreds of Tuffe? from any civilized place, there was little to do in the wav of amusement in the winter time when the post was snewbeand, and it was then that the reputation the f.r'i'.v has for card ploying and drinking j was gained- And it is true that a great deal of both was done at that time. It was in these cays that an event transpired that showed that the prin cipal actor had the courage cf his con victions, and that he wasmcst certainly hern under a lucky star. It was after a very "wet" strg dinner party, and all had partaken most freely cf the wine, and, strange-as it may seen, the subject that came up for discussion was the Mohammedan religion. The Mussul mans believe in fate. To teem a man s fate is written above, and the time of his death is set, and tic thing can ad vance it. Well, this belief had been dis cussed long and earnestly. The pros and ecus had teen gene over at length, till one officer wanted to know cf what use was reason if every one was born with a tag of destinv attached. One officer finally arose and said there was ro use of discussing the matter any further. The only way was to make a practical test of the question, and he would give himself as a subject. Could a man willfully dispose of his life when the fatal moment had been chosen at his birth from above? He could get no ere to try the experi ment on mm. linaily a wa'rcr was made. "Who will pay yen if I Icscr" said the subject as he drew his pistol and showed that it was loaded. He placed the pistol against his temple and pulled the trigger. The pistol missed fire. "A joke," yelled the crowd. The fatalist smiled, and, rcccckrng the pistol, aimed it with a steady hand at the clock on the walk He fired, and the bullet crashed through the center of the dial. "Apologize to me now," he said. '1 have wan the bet. I always believed in fate." Cincinnati Enquirer. FISH AS FOOD. The Darfr Is Eettcr Than the T7Iit Fcr an Active I'crscn. Mrj. S. T. F.orer, in The Ladies' f Home Journal, ccntends that there has not been a sufficiently accurate analysis upon which to base any table regarding the chemical composition cf fish at all reliable "The albuminoid matter in white fish, as ccd. haddeckand halibut, is in afceut the same proportion as in beef and mutton. They contain, how ever; more phosphorus the active fish, such as trout and pickerel, containing a still greater amount, due no doubt tc their activity. The amount of carbon depends largely upon the amount of fat they contain. The whitefish arev there fore, deficient in carben. If you should gck an intelligent ccok what vegetable to serve with a boiled white fish she wouH answer quickly, potatoes, as they supply the wanting carbohydrates. "There are other kinds of fish, how ever, such as salmon, catfish and stur geon, teat are quite well supplied vntn carbohydrates, in consequence cf which they are not so easily digested ss the white fish. The more oil they have dis persed through the tcdy, the more diffi cult the digestion. In the white fish the fat is held in the liver j in the dark fish it is dispersed through the entire flesh. From this fact we learn that dark fish make a much better diet for the active man. Many authorities afSrm that the more active fish, as well as the mere, active animals, give better muscle mak ing food than their more indolent rela tions." Kaiser 2nd Painter. There was a touching exchange of compliments the other day between Em peror William and the Eussian painter Terestchagin, whose works are now on exhibition in Berlin. The kaiser went to the gallery and was gracious enough to remind the artist that they had met before. "Yes, your majesty," replied Yerestchagin, "and then you were only 'highness, but now you are 'majesty. " To this the kaiser is said to have replied, holding oat his hand, "And you, who were a great painter then, are now a greater one." It is not altogether surprising that the Russian is reported as expressing deep respect for the emperor's critical powers, cr that he quotes, as showing limitless historical knowledge, the em peror's declaration, made at this mo mentous interview, that "if ever a judg ment of God broke over a man, it was over JTapoiecra. atSIoscow." Meanwhile Yerestchagin 's pictures will amtinue to reveal the horrors cf militarism, and thus supply one with the pleasant men tal recreation cf wondering what Eu rope's one real war lord can see to ad mire in them.
