Washing ton Catlett, Principal of the Cape Fear Academy, both as a scholar and an edu cator, gives a real value to the annexed testimonial: WILMINGTON, April 11, 1894. Mr. W. H. Bernard: Dear Sir: I have examined very carefully the 1st Part of the American Encyclopaedic Dictionary. I am really surprised at the excellence of the work both for its intrinsic merit and its price 1 have made a Parallel comparison with Webster s Unabridged; and with the Century, published also in parts, costing me f 2.50 per volume; or. complete, $60. I find the American Encyclopaedic Dictionary superior In many respects to Webster s Unabridged, and for genera purposes equal to the Century. The type is distinct and full, the illus trations numerous, the derivation of words scholarly and accurate, the defini tions exceedingly complete and verified by many extracts from leading modern authors, the encyclopaedic information vcty iuii, tne aiacntica marks nlain paee. I unhesitatingly endorse the First Part oi this Dictionary as meeting the require ments of the scholar and filling the wants me Kcncrai reaaer ana man of busi ness needing Renerar information in a compact and reliable presentation. No -one need fear that his money will be misspent, who invests in this work. Yours truly, . . . , WASHINGTON CATLBTT. " ESTABLISHED 1869. Palmer. Eivenburtr & Co Soceaama to 6. S. PALM IR. .

"Here, chick, chick!" called Harry, opening the gate of his poultry yard, j j He had just traded off a small colony of rabbits far half a dozen fowls, and he was very proud of them, for they Were beautiful birds, especially Narcis sus, the handsome rooster. . ; He really shone in the sunlight as he' came hopping out, with his scarlet comb, green tail and navy blue wjngs and breast But I think his pretty head must hold a very small brain. j I As soon as Harry let him out for ex ercise he stalked straight to the cellar window and gave it a savage peck. Then he stopped to crow and thenrushed at it again, fiercer than ever. . j i You see, he thought that his own re flection in the glass was another bird, and he wanted to fight with it f And so he could not take a stroll in the green grass, nor scratch in the flower beds, nor even peck at the grasshoppers and beetles that the hens made such a fuss about He only fought Ms own shadow till it was time for him to be shut up again. t I think his brain must be very small indeed. Youth's Companion: I j Clipping Their Claw. - One of the hardest tasks that the keep ers in museums 'and' zoological gardens are ever called upon to "perform is to trim the claws of certain wild Animniq, This is necessary, because if it were not done once in awhile J the claws would be apt to turn into the flesh from lack of ex ercise. In the wild state the ftrtlmala use their claws so much in climbing, etc.; that it keeps them sharp and wears them down to the right length. In captivity of course, they cannot do this, and their keepers have to resort to all kinds of tricks to accomplish it. Even our pet cats find it necessary to sharpen and shorten their claws occasionally and can often be seen scratching on the bark o 1 trees for that purpose. Little Rnth Looked On.

The manufacture of artificial flowers has risen from a handicraft almost to an art. and blossoms that are really wonderful im itations of nature crowd the counters of the shops and adorn the fanciful hats that this season has produced. Violets and red roses are the reigning favorites, repeating the purple and carmine tints so fashionable in fabrics. We are evidently entering on a period of frank coloring, for the haU tints and subdued shades which have hm sldered the thing" heretofore are giving place to brilliant reds, clear blues, vivid ereQs ana unmistakable yellows. Some very beautiful mixed straws are seen, mainly in combinations of green, pink, black and ecru, and plain neapolitan braids are also shown almost as flexible GTJIPUBB CAPOTB. and soft as muslin. , Many of the wide hats have the brim shaped in starlike points, while in others it is bent and twisted in ev ery conceivable fashion. . Spangles always appear in the trimming and are used im moderately A black neapolitan flat trim- mea wiin DiacK nad the bent brim covered with black spangles of all shapes andsLses, while in lace hats the pattern Is followed out on the net by them. The lace is gath- creu very UbUB, OI course. .. Besides the large hats, a number of toques and capotes are shown. The trimming is often allowed to fall on the hair at the back. Sometimes it is ribbon bow, sometimes two or three j et ornaments with pendants, some times only a bunch of violets. There is scarcely a hat or bonnet to be seen into -the construction of which lace of some sort does not enter, while everything glitters wiwi meiauic or jet decoration. A stringless capote is shown with a crown of spangled guipure. A scant ruffle of lace uu.c me piace or a nnm aDd is arranged to droop upon the hair behind. A black rosette is placed in the middle and on each wae, ana in rront are two black ostrich plunaes. : ; , JppifijCHOjjjrr. - Women VotergAfter the Offices Now.

A delicate flavor of rose leaves is a trreat ouuibion w cercain cases and confections, and a rose paste made at home is purer than many of the extracts sold for the pur pose, according to Harper's Bazar, which gives the folowing recipe: It ia mado by chopping tho leaves of fragrant roses Into a smooth mass with white sugar and plac ing them in an oven lonar enoncrh tn h thoroughly, but not entirely melt the sug ar. Use ar-eupfui of the leaves to 3 of sugar. Keep in airtight cans and allow to stana six months before opening. This must be used carefully, only a small quan tity being necessary to flavor a largo cake. A novelty at a recent dinner was a Roman punch flavored in this way with the Turk ish preserved rose leaves, which may be purchased at any store dealing in oriental goods. Into an ordinary Roman punch. which Is simply a lemon sherbet flavored to taste with rum, the rose leaves were snrrea a rew at a time until a delicate fla vor was obtained, and, the mixture was then frozen to a soft and snowv onnsictAn. Ley and served in small glasses. Half a can or tne 'jLurgish leaves would flavor a suffi cient quantity for eight persons. j.' " Angel Food. Angel food, if correctly prepared, Is one of the best loaf cakes made. The recipe herewith given is warranted by The Bak ers Helper to be the best: Beat very stiff and dry 10 whites of eggs (one-half pint), sift together twice, a half pound of powdered sugar, 5 ounces of pas try flour, an even teaspoonful of cream tar tar. Add all this to the eggs, stirring very gently with wooden snatnla. SnHnfcin half teaspoonful of vanilla powder to it and fill in the regular angel food tins. Soak these molds in old water always be fore using. Pill while wet just rinse them out and when baked turn molds upside down. Never grease or lino the molds with paper. Just have them wet, and the cakes will fall out when cold, as white as snow, all the crust sticking to tho mold. Frost very thin and give icing a very ueucara savor, or just a uttle lemon juice or maraschino. - A Sahstantlal Paddlns. . ; Dry crusts of bread, oddnieoesof eata. etc., will make excellent puddings if soaked in cold milk for a sufficient time, beaten up with suet, a spoonful or two of sago, some sugar, salt and any fruit you may be able to spare; also a spoonful of molasses. Make the mixture stiff and boil it in a mold for two honm at 1pm then yon will have a pudding which none need be ashamed of eating. The sago is an excellent substitute for egg. r . - j i -;. .. : I i ' j Honnehold Hints. Paint stains that are drv and old m&v be removed from cotton or woolen . sroods with chloroform.
