Wo feel quito sure that our liuly renders, nnd, imleeil, nil lovers of "pattering littlo feot" will thank us for giving thorn tho following exquisito ballad n real gem of music, n ballad of tho hoart.

My career ns a responsiblo cook aud housekeeper began in a littlo cloth tent pitched upon a rocky ledgo that ndomed tho north bank of tho Stanislaus. My "crockery" consisted of a dozen and - i..i .!.. t,, i :.. i.i.. ,. "" I ........ ..u .,....-, u. uaUi,.u. KUl,a UUll BUULUIO, UUUUU illlllllll'll muvus null forks, iron nnd powtcr spoons nnd ten spoons, n square-built bottle for syrup and a tin cup with a linndlo for n sugar bowl. Our dining tablo wns variously built of 33 pieces of rough board partly upon legs und partly fastened to tho posts that supported the ridgo-polo of tho tent. Tho ingonuity of tho nrragement was novor appreciated by tho common observer, for tho oil-cloth cover was woll nailed on aud thoro wo woro with n pormanont "exten sion." Awfully closo to tho dining tablo wero threo tiers ofbuuks where tho men slept and stowed uwuy all their porsoual prop erty. Dickons would havo mniiuit lino chapter out of thoso bunks, and especially if ho i i .1 ...i..... ....... ii.il.. i.V. .......... had seen them when poor liilly Lastmaii and old man Mead lay there with faces, necks and hands blown full of gunpow der. But bunks outsido of spicily written chapters aro by no meaus interesting; and if any pioneer woman has nine disorderly bunks in hor dining room sho can retiro them behind n green calico curtain, and "plav'Mhey nro not thero. That was tho way I did. For n cupboard thero was u sailor's chest up on end, two shelves put iu, and tho lid swung as briskly back and forth as any full-grown door. Possibly tho stanch old trunk has found its sen legs again and voyages to and fro iu tho earth even unto this day. My poor old stovo was n wreck of its former self, ns its legs, and a part of tho bottom wero gono tho way of old iron; but after boing firmly embedded in n box of dirt it stuck its pipo jauntily through tho cotton cloth roof and blazed nwny ns if nothing was tho mattor, whilo nil tho bread had to bo turned bottom sido up to ilnisli baking. Provisional resources as follows: salt beef, salt pork, hams, lard, dried beans aud peas, dried apples, Hour, sugar and syrup. All theso m largo packages and "all tho way from lloston nnd other for eign parts." Then potatoes generally, onions occa sionally, but nothiug olhomtho vegetable lino anil for a long timo yet thoro was no Mich thing as fruit, fresh meut, buttor, milk or eggs. Hut overy day and threo times a day a dozen men, moro or less, sat down to u 'squaro meal" and tho planning to malco changes and nlw ays to havo enough was nnxioiiH work for n uovico. Of course I know Unit miners lived mainly on pork and beans and slap-jacks; but tho Yankeo woman iu hor first glory of housekeeping would hardly condescend to that. My husband and somo of his mon had been "notorious" cooks in 11) and 50, so I gathered up tho odds and ends of thoir oxporienco but wnsnot always suro of producing such astonishing results as had crowned thoir culinary ollbrts. About two varieties could bo had with almost everything. Salt beef in chunk, or hashed with potatoos. Salt pork boil ed, and fried, llams ditto, iieans stow ed, or baked. Pea-soup, or poa-thick sliced when cold and fried in jiork fat. Dried applo in sauce, pics and fried turn overs. Yoast had not yet "mado a riso" in our set t lemon t; but I soon learned to make tho soumIoukIi broad, leaving a pieeo of dough from each baking which borved to start tho noxt batch. It was tho simplost form of formontntion and after somo prac- tieo I could nearly always guoss at tho proper amount of soda, nnd though tho loaves woro not moulded by hand thoy wero fairly light and palatable. Doughnuts woro mado by sweotoning tho bread-dough nnd allowing it to riio a &CUm?' nam gingeroreau wns nisu luxury that cnmS around in its turn. How to mako pies without a moulding board or rolling pin wns a poser nt first; but tho Yankeo is a pioloving animal and pio for Sunday is a religious instinct. So I wash- ed off carefully a corner of that tablo and upon tho shining oil-cloth rolled out pio- crust with a long-necked, black bottlo. Onco we mado minco-raeat, chopping it with a broail-ax in a uico oak log hollowed t tnr !, nnrnnsn. Aft6r awhilo I learned also to mako cracker pios; and such successful humbugs wore uioso mat ono conscientious guest refrained from tak- ing a second piece because 'twas "the first green apple pie ho had tasted this side the States, but wouldn't bo so tarnation greedy as to take two piecs when applos wero one dollar per pound in Frisco. ' This man went onward and upward, became Senator, Lieut. Gov. nnd learned to take two pieces without counting tho cost. Possibly more. It nlso eaino to juss in Uioe days that pies were made from potatoes, from'wntor melon rinds, from mnnzanita berries, nnd tho first tomatoes that enmo nbout woro largely seiiuestered in tho pio interest. All through those torrid summers wo worked hard and ato heartily of tho con centrated, heat-producing food that would have been all very woll in tho snap of a Down East Winter: but thermometers I ranging from 110" to 1203 had not vot sue j PV'8,ei1 10 '" ft 'orrespouding lightness of l '0 ,1(ul ot ovcn le.unCll tlmt co,rso ( bread would lw bettor for us than tine; i but blindly clinging to lifo wo murmured ' t.- . :. i i-...i. .. i it.-i I "lu iit-- ui .-.' niuurcui mm jiui i 1 .. ... 1 I..M .'.. ...'II . .4 ..
