The birds that nro free fly 1 1 bush and to i;rot If the wind ho t n cold, or the sun lie too hot! But tluss pretty little ccptives depend on our aid, tin winter for warmth, and in su nmer for sii.iue. When they cliirrup and ceaselessly hop to and fro, Some wivit or discomfort they're trying to show; When they scrape their hills sharply on p"rch or at wire, They're risking for something they greatly desire: :M hn thev set every feather on end in a twinklinr. With msical rustle like water a-surinkling, In rain or m sunshine, with sharp, cill like notes. They're hogging fur water to freshen their coats. Cage, porches and vessels keepall very clean. For fear ol small insects you know what I mean ! They breed in their feathers and leavo them no rest. In buying them seed, choose the cleanest and best. I teed my canaries, (excuse me the li'nt) On hemp and canary, rare, miller nd lint. 1 try thorn with all till I find out their taste The food they don't caro for they scatter and waste. About their bright cajj;cs I hang a gay flower. Of shepherd's-purse, chickweed and groundsel in flower. At a root of ripe grass they will pick with lunch ztst, For seeds and small pebbles their food to digest. But all should be ripe, ad well seeded and and brown, Few leaves on the groundsel, but pletny of down ; In summer I hang them out in the shade, About our hall door by a port ro made; In spring, autumn and winter a window they share, Where the blind is drawn down to tho after noon ijare. This window, if open, beneath them we clpse, LeBt the cramp should seize hold of their peor little toes. A bath about uoo tide on every warm day Will keep your small favorites healthy and gay. In hot summer sunshine Birac calico green. As a roof to their cage, makes a very good screen. On winter nights cover from lamplight and cold, And th-y'll sing in all weathers, and live to be old. The Admiral World. THE SWEET COUNTRY COUSINS. How dear to the heart are the sweet country cousins. When dug days of summer becin to draw mar; When bricks have grown hot and when sun str k s by dozens Fill body with anguish and bosom with fear ! The green waving fields and the sweet smell ing hreizes, The 'scaping from turmoil to quiet and ciliu. The rich creamy milk wh'ch the ready hand seizes, And nVn the brown cousins who live on the farm; The plain country cousins, the uncultured cou-ins. The sweet country cousins who livo on the tarni ! The Bweet country cousins ! oh, aren't they a treasure? How handy to love at this vacation time? And paying one's board is a too coptly pleasure. When all can be had without spending a dime. How pleasant to live on noh cream and ripj berries, Fresh golden-hued butter, and cakes light an 1 warm, Free usa of horses, the carts and the wherries Of s-vttt country cousins who live on the farm ! The plain country cousins, the uncultured cousins, The sweet country cousins who live on the farm ! How dear are the sweet country cousins In summer 1 How fragranttho meadow, romantic the down t But straightway your faces begia to grow glummer At thoughts of their visit next winter to towuj The theatre, the concert, the lecttre, the money Expended in tickets ! The thought gives a qualm; The seqnel nf .simmer is not quite so funny Why dm't the sweet cousins remain on their farm ! The brown viaged cous'ns,' the great awk ward cousins, The clod-hopper cousins should stay on their farm. modern emhr idery. We will five a brief description of some of tha simpler stitches, and an expert needle woman can readily find combinations for herself. Draw the threads from a piece of linen or scrim for half an inch or more in depth, Fast ening the thread at one end and holding tho material toward -)au, skip the first four of the raveled threads, putting jour necdla under fie next four with the point pointing from you, then over the first four turning the nee die over so teat the piiut r to vard you, thus twistinc the two "roups nf four. Draw tho thread through which holds fie twist and pro cced as before. The edges may be finished by overcasting, buttonholing, herring-bone, coral or any of the pretty fan or featherstitch es now in vogue, making one side of the stitch hold down tho raveled edge, so that it will uot fray or rael. Another way is to catch and fasten by over casting two or three threads at top and bot tom of the drawn space, then chain or button ho'c stitch in groups of six or. eight through the middle. It may be further elaborated by beginning with a thread in the middlo and working a waving line, securing eac'.i of tho bunches of two or three by a chain stitch. Return and repeit the waved line, and at the intersection of the threads make a chain stitch or a French knot, or lace stitches are still more olaborate and pretty. The pattern may be made still more intricate by taking more threads on the first row of waved lines, then making another row, subdividing the threads and so on for as many rows as you please, ac cording to the width of your border and the thickness of the threads. Another way is to herring bone through the center of the raveled space, taking up four threads on each side alternately, subdividing each side so that of the four threads taken, two will also be taken on the other side with two new ones. This pattern is very effective e pecially when the sides arc herring-honed above the drawn space, but so as to take up four of the threads at the edge with one side of the stitch. A pretty border is made by drawing the threads for half an inch or less in depth, then leaving a half dozen threads in the center and raveling the same distance on the other side. Finish with coral stitch along tho solid center piece, a twist stitch in the drawn work, and fan or blanket s itohes on each side. The easiest way ot all, and quite pretty, too, is simply to take up groups of threads in the center of the border and fastening in place with a chain stitch. Scrimp being thin and coarse is the easiest material to work on, and trying on small pieces, we think any one quick wirh the needle can soon learn these stitches and easily iu vent new ones. I made a bureau cover and splasher to match by taking heavy gray linen toweling, raveling the edges four or five inches in depth and ty intr in a knotted fringe. An inch or more from the edge I made a deep border of drawn work for the splasher, with an outline design o! water lilies and cat-tails in the middle. Fur the cover I made two narrow rows of drawn work each side with an outline design of ivy work between. I used brown shaded cm Broidery work for this. (All silks should be dipped in hot water and dried before using, to prevent the colors ru.nnii.-g when washed.) I have also made daiuty little dodies ot lin en duck, outlining a fruit or flower piece in the center, with a narrow drawn-work border edging and overcasting the fringed edgs with various fancy stitcties. For handsome towels I now uto tine, white crash w ith a more or less el tborate border in drawn-work, each tide, fringing the edges and knottiug, or simply oyen-asting them. For such work as the above, I use red or blue tin broi lery cotton. These towels I prefer to the fine ornament- tal ones the work is ro easily done, so hand some and durable and the materials are inex- lago of c'ther gam arsbio or tragicanth, add a few drops of oil of cloves or alcohol. The same curse will servo equally well to pre serve paste swut. ' Removing Medicine Stains. Medicine stain is removed from sitver spoons by rubbing them with a rng dipped in sulphuric acid, and wash ing it off with soap-suds. Keeping Eggs. Fres'i-laid eggs will keep for six monthsperfectly if simply racke 1 close in bran with the sin ill end down. Marble Cake. Light part; White sugar one and one-half cup, butter one-half cup, sweet milk one-half cup, one and one-half tea spoons baking powder, whites of four eggs, flour to and one-half cups. Dark part: Oni cup of brow n sugar, one cup moUsses, one ha f cup sour milk, two and ono half cups of flour, yolks of lour eggs, one and one-half teaspoons baking powder; cloves allspices, cmnimou, nutmeg of eash one-half teaspoon. To Clean Handkerchiefs. Silk handker chiefs washed in clear water with puro white castilo soap look like new. Do not iron, but snap between the f.ngers uutil almo3t dry and then press under a "weight. Ink Stains. To remove ink stains from wood, take half a tcaspoiuful of oil of itrol and dibit: it w ith a tablespoonful of water, and apply with a feather to the damaged spot. Let it remain for a few moments anil then rub it off quickly. If not successful the first time repeat until the iuk is entirely removed. Suet Pudding. One tea cup suet chopped fine, one cup of molasses; four cups of flour; one cup swcot milk; ono cup of raisins; one teaspoon of soda dissolved in the molasses; cinnamon, clove and nutmeg. Steam four hours. Half the recipe is sufficient for six persons. Puff Pudding. Three eggs; eignt table spoons of flour; one pint of milk; a little salt. Bat tho yolks and whites separately. Uic a sauce made of butter and sugar stirred together. Developing the Udder of the Cow. It docs not usually occur to breeders that pensive. Scrimp or fine linen is pretty worked with linen thread or floss, and laid over colored sateen ur sales1 for tidys, bureau covers, pil low and sheet thams, etc. Handsome dressing cases and buffet covers are made from heavy linou m-mie cloth with elaborate drawn and cut-work borders. Tue edges are fringed and tied in knotted or Mac rame fringes. Domeitie Bints. the udder is as susceptible of development ss are tho muscles of the trotting-bred colt. Any gland or muscle cm be invigorated and made to takn on more than its natural growth by a degice of handling. Development comes of circulation to the part, and tree motion in vit s blood, while inactivity does not. While the carpenter is using the saw or plane, the right arm receives lartcly more blood than while at test. So, likewise, if the udder is handled, whethei it has milk in it or not, blood will flow to it in an incieased quantity, adding to the tissues of the part. This would be the necessary result in the case of the oung heifer as well as of the grown-up cow. A small lump, or tluckening of any of the soft tissues upon a part, in the case of a pcr.-on, is sometimes made to crow and develop into a large tumor in a few months, simply by handling it frequently. The udder of tho young heifer never having bred, can bo made to secrete milk by exciting a flaw of blood to it, in the nianuer named. A3 tho cow, under our forcing moles, is, in so far as her udder is concerned, thrown into an artifici .1 stat , this organ taking on excsive act on, it is a question worthy of coiuiilcation whether the gland may not tiave a degree of immunity imparted to it by toughening the structure thiough handling, as the muscles of the colt are strengthened by scvt.ro exercise, rendering it there jy more Bccure againet in jury by active use. As the cow or heifer approaches the com pletion of ffi station, fie udder receives a large flow of Mood to it, takes on high excitement, and it is a question worthy of being sttled by careful tiials, whether or not the udder of thn htifer may tafely be increased in volume by manipulation, rendering it at at tho came time more nearly proof than now agaiust the sensitive and irritable state into which it is liable to drift when its functions are brought into active play. Even though this be not lone until the udder of the htifer begins to spring, as she nears calving, there can be no question as to our ability to enlarge its capac ity for milk giving, white at the same time we accustom the heifer to this handling, and when she drops her calf it will be found that she is already trained to submit to the milk mg process, and will sttnd quiet tinder it. iVorX Journal. LAWS OF THE LAND. A boy, who has been injured ry the lallinz of a bank of earth in the street of a city, when he has been playing therein, cannot recover damages therefor from the city, in the opinion of the Supremo Court of Missouri in Don ho vs. the City of St. Louis, decided in March. A married woman will bind her acparat' estate by her promi-sory note, in the opinion of the Supreme Court of Missouri, in the Boatmen's Savings Bank vs. G'llins, decided in Mirch. The Court n.lded that this is the pievalent docttiue iu the Englidi courts and in tho courts of tins country. When a husbau 1 and wife ar tn possesion of real property, all poisons must take notice of tho inteiest of the wife, and tho creditor of the husband cannot assail the wife's claim thereto, in the opinion of the Supremo Court of Iowa, in the Iowa Loan and Tiust Company vs. King, decided in June. The mnnine of a radroad train on Sunday is not a violatiou of tho law against doing business on the Sabbath day, iu tho opinion of the Court of Appeals of Kentucky, in tho Commonwoalt'i vs. the Louisville & Nashville Railroad Company, decided in May. Tho court said that the running of the tr.nu was a work of necessity. A railroad company is not 1 iable fcr dam ages for the dtath of a person caused by his act of suicide, which his resulted fiom instil ity produce 1 by injuries for which the com pany was responsible, in tho opinion of the Supremo Court of tho United States, in Schi' fcr vs. the Washington City, Virginia Mid land Jt Great Southern Railroad Company, decided in May. Where it is agreed in a mortgngo tok-cp the property insured, the policy to be made payable to the mortgage?, the rights of the mortgagor under prior policies will enure to the mortgagee, except as against the rights of persons who have a previous ilaim, in the opinion of the Supreme Court of Miumsita, in Ames vs. the Northwestern Mauufnctur. rs' Mutual Insurance Company, dec ded iu July A husband ocnositel money in a bank to the credit of his wife, olid drew checkN signel by him in bis wife's name, without her know 1 .W nml which the bank paid. The wifi "h" - sued for the amount to her credit, on tho re fual to pay hei, and reootered jiulgm lit. In this case, Bates V3. First National Bulk of Rockport, the Court of Ap, cals of New York, iu May, through Judge Finch, decided th.it the bank was liable to the wife, as the monej had Deen paid without her conseut. A co-partnership was dissolve 1, and notice of the dissolution was mailed to the poisons who wero dealing, or who had dealt with tin firm. Tho remaining partner co itinued bnsi nn.a in thn firm name, and had tho notes s'gn"d in the firm name discounted by tho bank with which they hail it ne business, i lie bank had had no notice of the dissolution when it discounted the notes. In an action to recover on tho notes, National Shoe and Leather Bank vs. Herz, the Court of Appeals of New York, in June, decided that the retir ing partner was liable thereon. A contract was made with the mister of a ves el for fitting out, victualing and repairing the same, and the owner was sued therefor Williams vs. Windley. The Supreme Court of North Carolina, at it present term, dc- cided, through the Chief Justice (Smith): Tho contract made by the master, and w hid: personally hinda him, binds the owner also, unless it is manifest that the crulit was given to the one exclusive of tho other, and "so the mere fact that tho repairs are made, or the supplies furnished, either iu the home port or in a foreign country, at tho request of the master, will be sufficient to charge him, but will not discharge tho owner, unless such in tent is manifest, nor will any private agree ment between them s to how these expenses are to be m-t, or for whose use the ship is to be run, vary tho rights of third person and not beii.g able to get seed at any price, they sent m tha loots, which are sft joint ed r lots; thesa I cut and placed in the ground w hero they immediately grew vry fast, pro ducing a ta'l green grins, riscmblm red top, only stowkieratul longer.

The use of drawn woik dates from the mid dle sg)s, when it was used by the monks ia ecclesiastical embroidery; in altar cloths, ban ners and grave clothes From them the se cret was imparted to the queens and their la dies who were always after "newe and siogn Ur patti rnus for Ucia and samplers," as an old book hath it. Beautiful specimens of this work come from Italy, where it is called "ponti tirato." At Su Autnis'ine and other convents of Florida may lie seen exquisite t iltet covers, bed spreads, pillow cases, etc., done by the sisters of the convents in'thls same Spanish "deshil do." S ma of the old Florentine specimens of this work are quite too grotesque for mod ern tatto, with their ornamentations of heral dic gntlias bullocks, castles, knights in arm or, etc. The chirm of drawn work for household use however, lies in its durability, bein j as strong as it is 'cantiful. Beginning with the old fasbi ned hem-stitch which is too well known to uvd description, we may taxy and elabor ate pttt'rns, using' in connection with the drawn w hi k nearly all thi stitches known to Keeping Butter. A simple mode of keep ing butter in warm weather, where ice is not handy, is to invert a common flower pot over the butter, with some water in the dish in which it is laid. Tne orifice at the bottom may be c rked or not. The porousnea of the earthenware will keep the butter cool. A wet cloth laid over the inverted pot will soon cuol off the butter by the evaporation of the moist ure. Insect Destroyer. Hot alum water is the best ins -ctd stroyer known. Put the alum into hut -vater and let it b-ail till it is all dis solved; then apply the solution hot with a brush to all cracks, bedsteads and other pla ces where any insects are found. Ants, bid bugs, c ickroaches and creeping things are killed by it, while there is no danger of pon- oning the family or injuring property. Hints On Ironing. If starch sticks to fiat ironi it can be removed in a much better way than to renpe it i-rT with a knife, as the prt cles are almost ure to fall upon the garment you are ironing, and so make trouble; tie a lump f beeswax in a clean Lit of cloth, and rub the hot iron on this; it will remove the starch at once. To Freshen Stale Crackers. Crackers thst are not fresh can be made to appear so by put tin? them into a hot oven for a short time.

There a tired man comes home and throws off his coat and hat without locking to see what becomes of them. There is a broad table in the light, struwn with papers and magazines, with a litter of rose 1 aves drop ping over them like a central vase. There is a wide sofa of the days of the (jeorges, fresh covered in chintz, with feina and harebells for patt-rns, and a tired man roes down there with a great muflled pillow under his shoul ders, and opens parcels and letters, dropping them on the floor as the most natural place for them. A girl's work lies near a dainty basket, heaped with bright colored crewels and silk. Nothing in the room is very fine, but everything looks spotless snd bright. The chairs have no particular places, and anybody feels at liberty to draw the sofa out when it pleases nun. I here is no primness alxint tue place. It is a lovely home a place for indul gence and repose. Earthenware In Cooking. The flavor of food baked or boiled in earth enware is said by those who havo made the ex periment to bs fir superior to that of vegeta ble or animal food cooked in the same way in iron vessels, for the reason that iron is a con ductor of heat, while earthenware is a non conductor; oonsejuently, food cooked in the latter is rarely eer burned, the decree of heat not varying preccptibly during tho pro cess of cooking, thus preserving the flavor of what is cooked, as well as uniformity through out the substance of the meat, vegetables cr grains, until the process of cooking is com pleted. So earthenware takes the premium, as it deserves to, and those who have found out how much better they can do their cook ing in these vessels than in ironware give pots and kettles a cold shoulder often.
