MY SWEETHEART.
I'm la lore with a fair little maiden
With her eyes, with her lips, with her

With her dozens of dear liule dimples
And although she'a petite
On her sweet little feet.
Tic a'wonder to me how she standi. ,
And she lores me, this dear little maiden;
And her hands, and her eyes, and her lips.
And her dimples, all giving me welcome
In a tweet, artless war
Hare their ear, every day,
Aa to meet me she lovingly trips.
Will she wed me, this sweet little maiden?
liless you, nol That she nerer will do.
But, when I have told you the reason,

Twill appear to you queer;
For I'm thirty while she's only twol

A STRANGE STORY.
The Remarkable Resurrection of
a Common Sailor.
How at Dead Man Returned to Life to
Admonish Commodore Rodger
and His Former Comrades
An Incideat of the
War of 1813.
Archibald Forbes contributes to
Belgravia the curious story found be
low. He says: Concerning the history
of the subjoined curious narrative, the
orisrinal manuscript of which, written
in now faded ink on the rough dingy
paper of sixty years ago, was placed ih
my hands in the course of a recent visit
to America, only a few words are
necessarv. The narrative is addressed
to "Mrs. Rodgers and sister," and ap
pears to have been written at the
request of the former lady, after the
author's return from tho sea on the
termination of his service as surgeon of
the frigate President, the famous fight
ing cruiser of the American republic in
the war with England of 1812-14.
Commodore Uodjrers, who commanded
the President tluriii"; the war, aud who
was the husband of the lad' for whom
the account was written, gave to Dr.
Turk's narrative his indorsement of
its perfect accuracy. Of the authen-
ticitv of the document there can be no
possibilitv of a doubt
"Some time in the latter part of
December, 1813. a man by the name of
William Kemble, aged twenty-three (a
seaman on board of the United states
frigate President, commanded by Com
modore John Rodgers. on a cruise, then
near the Western islands), was brought
to me from one of the tops, in which ho
was stationed, having burst a vessel in
his lungs, the blood gushing with great
riolence from his mouth and nostrils.
Wkh much difficulty I succeeded in
stopping the discharge, and he was put
upon remedies suited to his case. I
visited him often, and had the best of
opportunity' of becoming acquainted
with lib temper, habits and intellectual
attainments; and under all circum
stances, during his illness, found his
language and behavior such as stamped
him the rough, profano aud illiterate
sailor It is my belief, although I can
not positively assert it, that he could not
either read or write. It is certa'u that
his conversation never differed iu the
least from that of the most ignorant
and abandoned of his associates, con
stantly mixed with oaths and the lowest
vulgarity. Had he possessed talents or
learning", he must have betrayed it to
me during his long confinement.
"In the early part of January, 1814,
a vessel bore down upon us with every
appearance of an English frigate. All
hands were called to quarters, and after
a short and animated address by tho
Commodore to the crew, all prepared
to do their duty. Before I descended
to the cockpit, "well knowing Kcmble's
spirit and how anxious ho would be to
partake of tho glorious victory (defeat
never entered our thoughts), I thought
it best to visit him. After stating to
him the peculiar situation he was in,
and the great danger he would be ex
posed to by the least emotion. I en
treated anil ordered him. not to stir dur
ing the action, which ho promised to
observe. We were soon obliged to lire.
At the sound of the lirst gun he could
restrain himself no longer, but regard
less of my admonitions and of his own
danger, he'rushed upon deck and flew
to his gun, laying hold to help run her
out. A fresh ami tremendous discharge
from his lungs was the consequence,
and ho was brought down to me again
in a most deplorable state. 1 appre
hended immediate death, but by
Jhe application of the proper reme
dies I succeeded once more
in stopping the hemorrhage, by
which he was reduce! to a state of the
mot extreme debility. Be'ng near the
equator and suflering much from heat,
his hammock was slung on the gun
deck between the ports, affording the
best circulation of air. lit continued
for some time free from hemorrhage,
but was under the constant use of med
icine, and was confined to a particular
diet. This made him fretful, and he
would frequently charge my mates with
. starving him. at the same time damn
ing them in the true sailor fashion.
After some time, being again called to
quarters at n'ght, he was necessarily
removed below to the siek berth (com
monly called bay.) This was followed
by another discharge of blood from h's
lungs, which was renewed at intervals
until his death.
"On January 17, in the afternoon.
Dr. Birchmore. my lirst mate, came to
me on deck, aud reported Kemble to be
dead. I directed hiui to see that his
messmates did what was usual on such
occasions preparatory to comm tting
his remains to the deep. About two
hours after this Dr. Birchmore again
called on me. He sa d that Kemble
had come to life, and was holding forth
to the sailors in a strango war.
I directly went down, where 1
witnessed oae of the most remarkable
and unaccountable transactions that,
perhaps, had ever fallen to the lot of
man to behold. Kemble had awakened
as it were from sleep, raised himself up
and called for his.messmates in partic
ular, and those men who were not on
duty to attend to his words. He told
them he had experienced death, but was
allowed a short space of time to return
and give them, as well as the officers,
some direction for their future conduct
in life. In this situation I found him,
surrounded by the crew, all mute with
astonishment and paying the most
serious attention to every word that es
caped from his lips. The oldest men
were in tears, not a dry eye was to be
seen, or a whisper heard; all was as
solemn as the grave. His whole body
was cold as death could make it. There
was no pulsation in the wrists, the tem
ples or the chest perceptible. His voice
was clear and powerful, his eyes uncom
monly brilliant and animated. After a
short and pertinent address to the med
ical gentlemen, he told me in a peremp
tory manner to bring Commodore
Rodgers to him. as he had something to
say to him before ho linally left us.
The Commodore consented to go with
me, when a sccue was. presented
, truly novel and indescribable, and cal
culated to fill with awe the stoutest
heart. The sick iay (or berth) in
which he lay is entirely set apart to the
use of those who are confined to their
- beds by illness. Supported by the sur-
'fsoas, surrounded by bis weeping and
SMtoaisked comrades, a crowd of specta-
tezs looting tkraagk tk lattice-work
which inclosed the room, a common'
spanned lamp throwing out a sickly!
eht, and a candlo held opposite his
face by an attendant, was the situation
of things when our worthy commander
made his appearance: and well does- he,
remember the effect produced by so un-'
common a spectacle, especially when
followed by the utterance of these words
from the mouth of one long supposed
to have been dead: 'Commodore Rod
gers. l nave sent ior you, sir. oeing
commissioned oy a uiguer power io
address you for a short time, and to de
liver the message intrusted to me when
I was permitted to revisit the earth.
Once I trembled in your presence, and
was eager to obey your commands; but
now I am yoursuperior, being no longer
an inhabitant of the earth. I have seen
the glories ot the world of spirits. I am
not permitted to make known what I
have beheld; indeed, were I not forbid
den, language would be inadequate to
the task; "tis enough for you and
the crew to know that I have been sent
back to earth to reanimate for a few
hours ray lifeless body, commissioned
by God to perform the work I am now
engaged in. He then, in language so
chaste and appropriate that it would
not have disgraced the lips or the pen
of a divine, took a hasty view of tho
moral and rel.gious duties incumbent
on the commander of a ship of war.
He reviewed the vices prevalent on ship
board, pointed out the relative duties of
officers and men. and concluded by
urging tho necessity of reformation and
repentance. He did not, as was feared
by our brave commander, attempt to
prove the sinfulness of fighting and
wars; but, on the contrary, warmly
recommended to the men the perform
ance of their duty to their country with
courage and fidelity. H:s speeches oc
cupied about three-quarters of an hour,
and if the whole could have -been taken
down at the time, they would have
made a considerable pamphlet, which
would no doubt have been in great de
mand. Dr. Birchmore, now at Boston,
heard all the addresses, I only the last.
"When he finished with the Com
modore, his head dropped upon his
breast, his eyes closed, and he appeared
to have passed through a second death.
No pulsation nor the least degree of
warmth could be perceived during the
time that he was speaking. I ordered
him to be laid aside, and left him.
I retired to bed", deeply reflecting
upon the past, unable to sleep, when
about nine o'clock p. m., many hours
after Kemble had been laid by. I was
called out of bed to visit a man taken
suddenly ill in his hammock, hanging
near Kemble's apartment. It was an
hour when all but the watch on deck
had turned in; general silence reigned,
and all the lights below were out, with
the exception of a single lamp in the
sick apartment, where lay the remains
of Kemble. I had bled the sick man
he was relieved. I entered the sick
room beforo I retired to replace some
thing, and was turning round to leave
it. being alone, wheu suddenly I was
almost petrified upon beholding Kem
ble sitting up iu his berth with his eyes
(which had regained their former bril
liancy and intelligence) fixed intently
upon mine I became, for a moment,
speechless and motionless. Thinks I
to myself, what havo 1 done, or ten
undone, in this man's caso that would
cause him thus to stare at mo at this
late hour, and alone? I waited a long
time in painful suspense, dreading some
horrid disclosure, when I was relieved
by his commanding mo to fetch him
some water. With what alacrity I
obeyed can easily be imagined. I gave
him a tin mug containing water, which
he put to his mouth, drank off the con
tents, and returned to mo; then laid
himself quietly down for the last time.
His situation was precisely tho same in
every respect as beforo described. The
time was now expired which, he had
said, was given him to remain in the
body. The next day by noon, all
hands attended as usual to hear the
funeral service read, and see his re
mains consigned to a watery grave. It
was an unusually solemn period. Sea
men aro naturally superstitious, and
on this occasion their minds had been
wrought upon in a singular manner.
Decorum is always observed by sailors
at such times; but now they were all
affected to tears, aud when the body
was slid from the plank into the
sea. every one rushed instinctively to
the ship's side to take a last look. Tho
usual weights had been attached
to the feet, yet, as if iu compliment to
their anxiety to see more of him, the
body rose perpendicularly from the
water breast-lush two or three times.
This incident added sreatlv to the as
tonishment already created in the minds
of tho men. I bes leave to remark tha
it was not proper to keep the body
longer in the warm latitude we were in.
"I have now given a short and very
imperfect sketch of the important
events attending the last illness and
death of William Kemble. It is sub
mitted to the ladies in this State, beg
ging they will excuse haste and inaccu
racy. The change procured upon the
crew was ior a time remarkable. It
appeared as if they would never smile
or swear again. 1 he effect wore off by
degrees, except when the subject wa.

UNDERTAKERS.
How aud Why the Term Came to Be
Applied to "Funeral Directors."
The earliest known use of this word
as applied to conductors of funerals is
by Young, who has the couplet :
While rival undertakers hover round,
Aud witli his said the sexton marks tha
Krouud.
The present use of the word is no
doubt derived from its primary mean
ing, one who stipulates to do anything.
or undertakes the management of any
affair. Two hundred years ago a class
of people known as UDholders veere
usually called upon to take charge of
the funerals Thus the poet Gay says :
The upholder, rueful harbinger of death.
., una wiiu iiupuucacc ior me dying- breath.
Xow. upholders were dealers in
seeond-hand furniture, old clothes and
the hke, and perhaps were so called
oeirause they were so often resorted to
as the last" resource of failincr credit.
As these persons were abl frnm
their stock of cheaply purchased
matfrial to supply what was
needed at funerals at less ex
pense than the regular merchant nr
haberdasher, the came to be thus em
ployed, and also to furnish houses. In
time the more ambitious of this class
confined their business to the furnishing
of houses only, and dealt in goods both
new and old. and to avoid tho con
founding of their business with that of
me iuneral managers styled themselves
upholsters, a name changed latter to
upholsterers. Subsequently the more
pretentious members of the clan of
upholsterers assumed the name of
undertakers, deriving the cognomen
logically enough from the signification
of its parts in the Saxon tongue. An
undertaker, one who takes in hand a
business or task, or renders himself
responsible for its performance. Or
perhaps the idea of the word was taken
from the French name for th cama
office, entrepreneur, though the primary
idea of the French word is rather that
of one who bids for a particular task.
Clarendon, in his "History," gives the
word with a general meaning in the
line. "Antrim was naturally a great
undertaker." Honeywood, in "The
Good-Natured Man'r of Goldsmith,
speaks thus of Croaker: "His yery
mirth .is an antidote to all gayety, and
his appearance has a stronger effect on
my spirits than an undertaker's shop.

COCK-FIGHTING.
How the ChJekea DUpatea of J0w F
fathers Were Conducted.
With all the antiquarian knowledge
of the present day, we doubt whether
one man in a thousand could give a tol
erably accurate description of the cock
fights of his forefathers. How cock
fighting is conducted at present we do
not pretend to know ; but ancient
"cocking" hath its literature, and, be
sides, the written word, there is consid
erable tradition concerning it, which
some of us are old enough to have re
ceived from the very mouths of our
parents.
The first and most important point in
cock-fighting wa3 the weight of the
birds. In most agreements for a cock
fight "articles for a cock-match"
was the technical phrase it was stipu
lated that no cock should weigh less
than three pounds six ounces, or more
than four pounds eight ounces. When
the cocks of each side had been weighed,
the next thing was to pair them. This
was done by matching all the cocks on
either side whoso weights came within
one ounce of each other. The lightest
par of cocks were always made to fight
first, and then those gradually
heavier, until the heaviest pair
fought last. This venerable rule had
been in use since the days of King
Charles H. Although the cbmbs of the
birds were always cut, they had to
appear "with a fair hackle, not too near
shorn, or out, nor with any other fraud."
The spurs were usually of silver, at least
in the great matches. " At the time ap-
pointed f r the cock-fight to begin, the
masters of the match" took their seats
opposite to each other, on either side of
the cock-pit, accompanied by two offi
cials termed the "setters-to. Then
the two "feeders" appeared, each carry
ing a cock. After due examination, the
birds were made over to the setters-to,
and they handed them to the mvsters
of the match, who started the fun by
putting the cocks upon the mat on the
floor of the cock-pit. The next par to
the business the cocks manage! for
themselves. The "noble sport" now
began in earnest, and sometimes two
good birds would fight until one cock
had killed the other or thrashed him to
helplessness. But not uncommonly
after a sharp round, both cocks would
suspend hostilities to gain breath, and,
withdrawing to a little distance, each
would watch the other in the hope of
catching him in a careless or listless
moment. For a short time this rather
added to the excitement of the specta
tors; but human patience soon became
exhausted when two cocks stood
solemnly eyeing each other. Now the
limit of time for cocks to ogle without
fighting was fixed at the interval during
which an official, called "the teller of
the law," could count forty. When this
limit was passed, human science was
brought to the assistance of the birds.
The setters-to then caught them, and
carrying them to the middle of the pit,
"delivered them on their legs, beak to
beak." If either of them had been
blinded in the previous battle, their
heads wore to be made to touch each
other. If one cock refused to fight, he
was tried ten times, and he had to re
fuse to light as many times before he
was considered beaten. It sometimes
happened that the cock who would
fight, died from his wounds before his
adversary had refused tu times, and
in that case tho craven bird was con
sidered to have won the battle. Tho
law further provided rules in case both
cocks refused to fight, as well as in
other cases which it is hardly necessary
that we should enumerate; but they
wero nearly all based on the principle
that "the teller of tho law' should
count forty, twenty or ten, according to
circumstances, between the intervals of A
the fights, It will be readily under
stood, from this description, that a great
part of a cock-fight was occupied by
the setters-to squatting opposite to each
other in the middle of the pit and "de
livering the cocks on their legs, beak to
beak."
Cock-fighting was fashionable in
Greece at least five hundred years B. C,
and it was probably a very ancient
sport iu China, where it is still highlx
popular. In India, again, cock-fighting
is an institution of very great an
tiquity. Mr. Doyle, in his book on
poultry, assumes that tho Britons prac
ticed cock-fighting before the landingol
Cu;sar, from the statement of that au
thor to the effect that the Britons only
reared their fowls for amusement.
Both Henry VIII. and James I. were
fond of "cocking;" Oliver Cromwell
legislated against it, but Charles II.
revived it. The Royal Cockpit at West
minster, which was the head quarters
of cock-fighting, was established by
Henry VIIL., and even in tho present
century mains have beon fought in it.
Newmarket has been the scene of num
berless cock-tights. Indeed, it may be
said that for a long time eock-fightiug
went hand-in-hand with racing, and it
used to be reported in the official racing
calendar, which was then called the
Sporting Calendar. -Taking up the
Sporting Calendar of 1775, we read
that at Newcastle-upon-Tyne, during
the race meeting the gentlemen
of Durham and Northumberland
fought a "main of cocks," consisting
of thirty-eight battles, and ending in "a
drawn main." It is said that 1,000
game-socks have been killed in fights
during one week at Newcastle. The
gentlemen of the same counties fought
another main, at the Durham races of
the same year, when Northumberland
won. after thirty-four battles had been
fought. Although the matches were
sometimes made between individuals, it
was more usual for the mains at races
to be fought between cocks belonging
to the gentlemen of two adjoining
counties. Ten guineas each battle, and
one or two hundred on "the odd,"
seem to have been the usual stakes; but
there was an immense amount of bet
ting, and the odds were calculated to a
great nicety. Hoyle gives a table of
odds which is quite'appalling. For in
stance, he quotes one case in which the
betting is 1 3,843.421-7.821.875 to 1
against a certain contingency. Mr.
Dovle mentions a cock-fight in India
for" "a lac of rupees (10,000)," but it
is probable that more money has been
lost and won over cock-fighting ir
England than in any other country.

ABOUT FLIES.
A DIssertatloa Upon Their Orderly QaaA
ties Why Bald-Headed Xea Have Rea
son to be Thaahfal for Their SUsht
IaSrsaity.
So far as my researches on this im
portant subject havo extended, I find
thnt while there are innumerable races
and varieties of the fly family, they are
only divided into two great bodies,
namely, the tramp, and the domestic
fly. The former may be found more
particularly on the street cars, attracted,
doubtless, by the family market basket;
but when the basket fails to material
ize, he vents his spite on the passen
gers in vicious attacks on every unpro
tected portion of their cuticle. The
tramp fly will board a car at tho
Woods Run stables, and gather what
cold victuals he can as far as Market
street; here, if not satisfied, be leaves
the car and goes around to the Oak
land line, and, after a lengthy and
leisurely ride, he eventually reached
the East End. By this time lie is com
pletely "gorged," but, that neighbor
hood being too quiet for his playful
disposition, he steals a ride on the
Penu avenue car, makes connection
again with the Union line, and soon is
hung up for the night on the beams of
the Woods Run stable. Occasionally,
however, in thus sw'.ng.ug around the
circle he get dazed, misses connec
tions, gets into a strange tly roost, aud
is lost sight of forever to his old asso
ciates. The domestic lly is a different insect
iu all his habits. ' No matter what the
outside attractions may be. his motto
is: "Be it ever so humble, there .s no
place like home;" and. if the truth
must be told, the humbler the homo
the better he appears to like it. He
loves to frequent board. ng houses and
restaurants, but is content to hang up
his hat in an ord nary dwell ng wlien
the aforementioned resorts are bay oud
his neighborhood. Longfellow, in his
matchless pa tho. has compared trouble
to a host of vultures who watch from
a distance for a favorable opportunity
to descend upon their prey, and the
comparison holds equall good w th
flies at meal-time. Ob-orve tlu'iu. as,
in uncounted numbers, they promenade
along the bouiex ard ov . rhe.nd, chatt tig
with this ce ghbor and that over the
latest fashions, or. perhaps, denouncing
the scandalous action of Miss Shuony;
but lo! the peaceful promenade or dis
cussion suddenly cease, and a strange
hush settles over Fh land. What does
it mean? Simply that tho table is be
'ng drawn out for the evening repast
Do they at once descend, in contem
plation of the anticipated feast?
Not by any means they wait
for the appearance of the viands. Soon
all is ready, and down comes a fly,
then another, and another, till at last
they take complete possession. They
wade through the butter, go swimming
in the milk, play hide-and-seek in the
bread, and perform such a series of
aut:cs, that in despair, tho head of the
family arises grasps the fly-brush,
swings it around v'gorously, and
knocks a fly in the tea-cup of every one
at the table. Upon this culmination
of distress, all efforts at disposing the
intruders ceases, and tho Hy reigns
supreme.
Before "clos'ng this homily I would
like to correct a very prevalent, yet
very erroneous idea, that bald-headed
men are mom annoyed by llies than
tlio?e who have been blessed with con
siderable capillary adornment. On tho
contrary, egg-topped ind'viduals are
rarely troubled with t'.iem. I have
made a special study of th s feature of
the subject, and have noticed that
where ordinary individuals expended a
large portion of their time, temper and
muscle in combating the ubiquitous
insect, the bald-headed man has eu
joyed almost complete immunity, and
smiled serenely at the ridiculous gym
nastics of his ne'ghbors. The reason
for this is based on the aversion flies
manifest for anything of a light color;
their taste inclines them to sober hues,
and therefore somber-headed people
must bear the brunt of their attacks.

REMARKABLE PHENOMENA.
ElectrlcHl Dlarhitrce from Clouds ICe
RriuMliif; Brilliant Firework.
At about midnight on July 29 a re
markable phenomenon was seen at
Jonkopiug, Sweden, over Lake Wet
tern. A strong luminosity was sud
denly shown in the north where some
ver3' peeul ar clouds looking hke ice
bergs were seen almost to touch the
water. From these clouds electrical
discharges continually proceeded, im
parling to them a bluish, phosphores
cent light, somewhat ruddy near the
water and intensely yellow at their
sides. It seemed like a constant dis
charge of fireworks from the lake. It
was remarkable that the light as is
generally the case w'th an electrical
discharge in the atmosphere did not
assume the form of bunches of stream
ers, but at one time flared up intensely
and at oilier times formed narrow bands
across the clouds. Above the latter
there was a faint bluish reflection. The
lake lay as calm as a mirror, and
though an optical illusion was uncom
mon in these parts, the western shore
seemed close to the town, while the
eastern disappeared in the clouds. Ex
cept the electricity-laden clouds in the.
north the sky was cle..r. stars shone,
and the full moon was bright. Below
the latter the sky seemed faintly red.
compared w'th the intense electric
light At Katrineholm the same phe
nomenon was seen in the northeast
Here an intense glare was seen above a
cloud, assuming the appearance of two
gigantic lustrous'trees, which remained
thus for half an hour, when it changed
into a variety of forms. There mis no
nohe accompanying the phenomenon,
which lasted in both places for about
an hour. It is not probable that the
phenomenon could have been of auro
ral nature on account of the bright
ness under a lull moon. Mature.
How Grant Encouraged an Aide.
An old army officer told me to-day
how General Grant once revived the
flagging courage of pne of his stall
officers. The latter, when he was first
ass:gned to duty under General Grant,
had never been in anv serious cnae
mcut. Almost the first day that he
reported to Grant he was placed under
a fire of the hottest and most severe
kind. The screaming of the balls, the
roaring of the eaunon and the sharp
crack and rattle of the musketry
thoroughly demoralized him. He be
came absolutely sick and paralyzed
with fear. He was so weak from nerv
ous excitement that he lost physical
control over himself. Grant came up
at the very climax of his fright, anil
noticing His pale face, his blue lips
and chattering teeth, he said: "Cap
tain, you are frightened. That is
natural enough. Yon will get over it
Suppose." continued Grant "I should
come to you with a hat containing
ninety-nine white beans and one black
one, 'and I should ask you to thrust
your hand into the hat at'a venture and
pick out the black bean; do you think
your chance of getting that black bean
would be very good? Well, yonr

How Plug Hats Are Made.
To make the silk stove-pipe hats a
large square of muslin is dipped into
shellac, wrung out and then stretched
over a wooden frame to dry. After
drying it is cut up into sizes aud shapes
suitable for the various parts of the
hat Some pieces are cut on the bias
for the crowns of hats, others are stiif
oited particularly for the brims, while
th" muslin for "the central cylinders,
wh ch are the aides, is cut Into oblong
squares. The material for a dozen of
these hats is then given to a workman,
who draws the frame of the hat to-
f other around the block and fastens it
y means of a hot iron. The shell of
the hat, as it is called, is then var
n'shed and dried, making it stiff, and
then the silk plush is put on, a man
ironing it to the shellac-covered shell
and sp'ong-ng it with every stroke of
the iron. Girls sew iu the crown and
the briu after the sides of the shell
have been fastened, aud then the seams
are gone over with a hot Iron, which
conceals all traces of them. The brim
is then curled, as in the case of the felt j
article aud then the hat goes away to '
the luering machine, where polish
brushes, revolving rapidly, give it a
high polish. From the luering Ma
chine it goes to the hands of a girl,
who trims it and puts is tha lining.

In England a parent can be prose
cuted for the non-attendance of his
child at school, and ohildren must bring
the penny school fee everv Monday.
The father of a child who did not bring
his penny on two successive Mondays
was summone 1 for "non-attendance?'
and the Lord Chief Justice held that the
attendance of a child without the fee
constituted no attendance under the by
laws of the School Board.
The system carried out in Vienna
for educating girls is certainly worthy
of notice. They are kept at their studies
until they are fifteen' years of age. They
then go through a course of teaching iu
the pantry and the kitchen under some
member of the family, or sometimes un
der tra'ned cooks for a year or two
years. Thus they learn to do every
thing themselves, and to know the val
ue of things long before they commence
house-keeping on their own account;
and though they may never bo required
to cook a d nucr, they become inde
pendent of cooks and servants. it. Y.

How to Eat a Watermelon.
To be properly enjoyed the perfect
watermelon should be pounced on in
the patch just after sun up. It should
be carefully selected. In response to
an eager thun there should follow a
dead and meaty sound and the melon
should weigh not less than twenty
five pounds. After it is pulled it should
be split from end to end with a short
bladed pocket knife, so that in tearing
it open the glowing and juicy heart,
bursting loose from its confinement,
should find a lodgement on one side
only. At this point the kaife is to be
fang away. For a moment the ore
should be allowed to feast itself on the
vision thus suddenly brought to view,
then the heart should be scooped out
with the hand and its nectanoas meat
thrust noon the hot and thirsty palate.
There ouht to be something savage in
th enjoyment of a watermelon; it
ourht to be crushed and swallowed
with avidity. The man who knows
how to enjoy on will com away
the frav with the sweets ia his I
inhis hair and on his dHhss Ailmmf
