SATURDAY, JANUARY 27, 1906. 
It may be of interest, especially to 
those who heard the address by Chas. 
S. Hanks before the N. S. Horticul- 
tural society last Friday night, a full 
account of which we published, to 
know that the house committee on in- 
terstate and foreign commerce have 
this week agreed upon a rate bill to be 
known as the Hepburn bill. In the 
main the bill is the original Hepburn 
bill. This is the one recommended 
by Mr. Hanks and endorsed by the 
Historical society members. 
W HISPERINGS 
Talk about spring weather! The 
Boston papers made quite ado the 
other day when somebody found some 
dandelion blossoms. We can_ beat 
that here in Manchester. Some of 
the gypsy moth hunters found a 
butterfly hovering around as gayly as 
on a bright June morning, last Mon- 
day at West Manchester. Janitor 
Geo. D. Haskell picked some dande- 
lion blossoms on the Common a week 
ago today, and some more were found 
at the Essex County club. 
At Magnolia some May flowers 
were found the first of the week on 
the hill back of Rowe’s stable, and 
snakes crawled from their winter 
quarters thinking the April days had 
returned once more.

Many amusing incidents have come 
to my attention since the fire last 
week, especially in connection with 
the postoffice, many people forgetting 
that it was located in the Town hall. 
The best one is on Supt. of Streets 
Kimball who left his office in the 
Town hall the other night and walked 
half way up to Pulsifer’s block to get 
his mail.

Cooking receipts are always of 
great interest to the ladies, but here 
is one which should also interest the 
men, especially the unmarried men. 
It is called ““A recipe for Cooking a 
Husband.” I heard it read the other 
night at a ‘“‘shower’’ I attended. It 
was read to the fiancee, with the poor 
fiance taking it all in, shivering as 
though the rule was to be applied on 
him at once. Here it is: | 
OED RECIPE 
CooKING A HusBAND 
A great many husbands are utterly 
spoiled by mismanagement in cook- 
ing, and are not tender and good. 
Some proceed as if their husbands 
were balloons, and so blow them up; 
others keep them constantly in hot 
water ; and still others let them freeze 
by their indifference and neglect. 
Some keep them in a stew all their 
lives by irritating ways and words. 
Others roast them. 
Some keep them in a pickle. It 
cannot be supposed that any husband 
will be tender and good when managed 
In this way ; but they are really deli- 
cious when properly treated. 
In selecting your husband you 
should not be guided by the silvery 
appearance, as in trying mackerel ; 
nor by the golden tint as in salmon. 
Be sure you select him yourself as 
tastes differ. 
. Do not go to the market for him as 
the best are always brought to the 
door. 
It is far better to have none unless 
you will patiently learn how to pre- 
pare him. 
A preserving kettle of the finest 
porcelain is best, but if you have 
nothing but an earthern pipkin it will 
do with care. 
See that the linen in which you 
wrap him is nicely washed, neatly 
mended, and with the required num- 
ber of buttons and strings. 
Tie him in the kettle with a strong 
silken cord called “comfort,” as the 
one called “duty” is apt to be weak. 
He is liable to fly out of the kettle 
and be burned and crusty on the 
edges since, like crabs and lobsters 
you have to cook ’em alive. 
Make a clear, steady fire out of 
love, neatness, and cheerfulness. Let 
him as near this as seems to agree 
with him, If he sputter and fiz do 
not be anxious; some do this until 
they are quite done. 
Add a little sugar in the form of 
confections called kisses, but no vine- 
gar or pepper on any account. 
A little sipce is good, but it must 
be used with judgment. 
Do not test him with any sharp 
instrument to see if he is browning 
tender 
Stir him gently.and you cannot 
fail to know when he is done. 
If thus treated you will find him 
very digestible, agreeing with you 
nicely, and he will keep as long as 
wanted, unless you become careless 
and set him in too cold a place.
