THE RURAL NEW-YORKER. 
io7 
in is nicely washed and mended, with 
the required number of buttons and 
strings tightly sewed on. Tie him to 
the kettle with the strong silken cord 
called “ comfort,” as the one called 
“duty” is liable to be weak. They are 
likely to fly out of the kettle, and be 
burned and crusty on the edges, since, 
like crabs and lobsters, you must cook 
them while alive. 
Make a clear, steady fire out of love, 
neatness and cheerfulness, and set him 
as near this as seems to agree with him. 
If he sputters and frizzes, do not be 
anxious; some husbands do this until 
they are quite done. Add a little sugar 
in the form confectfoners call kisses, but 
no vinegar or pepper on any account. 
A little spice improves him, but must be 
used with judgment. Do not stick any 
sharp instrument into him to see whether 
he is becoming tender. Stir him gently, 
watching the while lest he lie too flat 
and close to the kettle, and so become 
useless. 
You cannot fail to know when he is 
done. If thus treated you will find him 
very digestible, agreeing nicely with 
you and the children, and he will keep 
as long as you wish, unless you become 
careless and set him in too cool a place. 
ODDS AND ENDS. 
Bologna Sausage. —Use six pounds of 
lean beef, one pound of salt pork, three 
pounds of lean pork, one pound of beef 
suet, chopped fine and mixed ; add three 
ounces of salt, one teaspoonful Cayenne, 
one ounce white pepper, one teaspoonful 
of ground mace, and one large onion 
chopped fine. Mix thoroughly, fill into 
casings, and tie into lengths, or use 
strong linen bags. Make a brine from 
Liverpool salt, that will bear an egg. 
Put the sausage in and let it stand two 
weeks, turning, skimming and watching 
carefully every day. At the end of the 
first week, throw away the old and make 
a new brine. Smoke for one week. When 
smoked, rub them over with olive oil, 
and hang away in a cool, dark place. If 
to be kept for some time, sprinkle pep¬ 
per over the outside. This is according 
to Mrs. liorer. 
Her Privileges. —The farmer’s wife 
fills a station in life that is unique when 
compared with that of her sisters. The 
wife of the mechanic, miner, printer, 
and so on, scarcely, if at all, knows 
what the implements look like, with 
which the father of her children earns 
their daily food. Much less does she 
know how the work is done. In the 
event of his death, in the majority of 
cases, she must make her livelihood in a 
manner entirely different from that of 
her husband. Not so with the farmer’s 
wife. If she is at all a helpmate suitable 
for him, she will interest herself in his 
work and plans, his achievements and 
difficulties, his failures and his successes. 
The ordinary implements and their uses 
are quite familiar to her, the more com¬ 
plicated machinery is far from a strange 
affair, and she knows how to direct the 
help in the event of her husband’s sick¬ 
ness or absence from home. During the 
busy season, in spite of the many duties 
devolving upon her, she catches a few 
minutes, perhaps while nursing the 
baby, to read The R. N.-Y., or other 
favorite paper. Some article, possibly 
overlooked by her husband, catches her 
attention, and she treasures it in her 
mind, unknowingly even, against the 
day of need. In this manner she often 
becomes a valuable mentor to her hus¬ 
band, pointing out an error, or directing 
the proper course to be pursued. To the 
credit of the woman be it said, that the 
farmer’s wife is often the better farmer 
of the two. Should he die, she is not 
compelled to change her life. She can 
direct the doing of what she cannot do 
herself annie c. senger.

PEN POTPOURRI. 
Smile upon the troubled pilgrims 
Whom you pass and meet; 
Frowns are thorns, and smiles are blossoms, 
Oft for weary feet. 
Do not make the way seem harder 
By a sullen face. 
Smile a little, smile a little, 
Brighten up the pl.aee. 
—Ella Wheeler Wilcox. 
_Harper’s Bazar : “ Sincerity in it¬ 
self alone is no virtue. To be good and 
sincere is virtuous, not to be bad and 
sincere.” 
_Phillips Brooks : “Do not dare to 
live without some clear intention tow¬ 
ard which your living shall be bent. 
Mean to be something with all your 
might.” 
... .Starr Hoyt Nichols : “ Sometimes 
men resent what they call woman’s in¬ 
vasion of their rights ; but they do it 
foolishly and unthinkingly. No one 
ever takes a right from some one else 
without losing something himself.” 
_Dr. Parkiiurst in Ladies’ Home 
Journal : “ Empty barns in October 
are the logical sequence of empty fur¬ 
rows in spring. The young man may as 
well understand that there are no gratui¬ 
ties in this life, and that success is never 
reached ‘ across lots. ’ ”

Disease is an effect, not a cause. Its origin it 
within; its manifestations without. Hence, tc 
cure the disease the cause must be removed, and 
in no other way can a cure ever be effected. 
Warner’s SAFE Cure is established on just this 
principle. It realizes that 
95 PER CENT. 
of all diseases arise from deranged Kidneys and 
Liver, and it strikes at once at the root of the 
difficulty. The elements of which it is composed 
act directly upon these great organs, both os e 
food and restorer, and, by placing them in c 
healthy condition, drive disease and pain from 
the system. 
For the innumerable troubles caused by 
unhealthy Kidneys, Liver and Urinary Organs; 
for the distressing Disorders of Women; for all 
Nervous Affections, and physical derangements 
generally, this great remedy has no equal. Its 
past record is a guarantee of continued per¬ 
formance. WARNER’S SAFE CURE CO.,
