How Mother Did It."
I found fault, some time ago, 'with 'Ma
ria Ann's custard pie, and tried to tell her
how my mother made custard pie.- Maria
mace the pie after my receipt. It .lasted
longer than any other pie we ever had.
.MmU set it onthe table every day for dinner-
and yon see I could not eat it, because
I forgot to tell her to put in any eggs or
.fchonening.. It was economical ; but in a
fit of generosity I stole it from the pantry
and gave it to a little boy intheneighbor
hocar boy's funeral was largely at-tr-ned
by his former playmates. I did
nnt fro myself. Then 4 here were the buck-
wt rat cakes. I told Maria any fool could
Leat her making those cakes ; and she said
I had beiter try it. So I did. I emptied
the baiter all out of the pitcher one even
in tf. and set the cakes myself. I got. the
fiour and th salt water; and, warned by
the Dast. put in a liberal quantity of eggs
nri fchciteninfir. I shortened with tallow
from roast beef, because I could not find
any lard. The batter did not look right,
xpphh. to be sure. I had forgotten the
veast. I went and woke up the baker,
nnrl rot six cents' worth of yeast. I set
the pitcher behind the sitting room stove
nnd went to bed.
In the morning I got up early, and pre
mised to enioy my triumph: but 1 didn't,
That veast was strong enough to raise the
dead; and the batter was running all over
the carpet, I scraped it up and put it in
nn other dish. Then I got afire in the
kitchen and put on a griddle. The first
lot of cakes stuck to the griddle. The
rond dittoed, only more. Maria came
down and asked me what was burning,
She advised me to grease the griddle. I
did it. One end of the griddle got hot,
and I dropped the thing on my tender
est corn while trying to turn it around.
Finally the bakes were ready for break
fast, and Maiia got the other things ready.
We sat down. My cakes did not have
exactly the right-,, flavor. I took one
mouthful 'and it satisfied me. I lost my
appetite at once. Maria would not let me
put one on her plate. I think those cakes
may be reckoned a dead loss. The cat
would not eat them. The dog ran off and
ntayed away three days after one was of
fered to him. The hens would not go
within ten feet of them, I threw them in
the back yard, and there has not been a
pig on the premises since. I eat what is
put before me now, and do not allude to
mother's system of cooking.
Integrity In Wall Street,
Fe w persons would select the "Street"
as the symbol of mercantile honor. Yet
it would be difficult to find a spot in. the
land where business ability and integrity
have a higher mercantile value. Millions
pass daily on the. click of the gold dial.
The click is a fortune to some and a rvm
to others. Yet in twenty-five years not
five persons have repudiated their con
tracts. -The sale of slocks is enormous.
Thee sales are made in an undertone,
perhaps to a runner or clerk of a large
house. There are no witnesses. Yet be the
sale loss or gain, not three men in thirty
years have repudiated their sales. The
leauing brokers, who simply buy and sell,
have stood for a quarter to a half of a cen
tury. Through these houses the great
dealers buy and sell. These men keep
the funds of their patrons, from ten thou
sand dollars to a million or two. Men so
trusted become rich, and when they re
tire they sell the good-will of their houses
for thousands. Usually the old firms take
in their sons or relatives, and keep just
interest enough to hold the boys steady
and keep up the old style of things. If a
man wants to see the old school honor,
genuine liberality, large-hearted dona
t'l,nf. and "the courtesies of business
he will have to make the acquaintance
"the street." Cor. Boston Jour.

Fwfll be seen from the above list of Oompaides. that
I have accepted the Agency of tbe HOME, of New
Tor., In place of tbe Home of New Haven, being de
termined to have none but the most rehablecompaiii,-
thatmy patrons may fel the most perfect security.
1-he HOME, of New York,' has Cash Capital and Aaaete,
amounting to Four and a Half Million Dollars, til in-
vesttvl in 1 lrst CIhSh Kpcuritles, mnuahing ample and
reliable indemnity under its poUdea.!.
No Coiapanies iu America offer greater inducement
to pcno:ia winning to Insure their lives for the bene at
of their'wives and children, or who wish to provide an
Endowment or Income in tbir old age, or who want
insurance against loss by fire, on Buildings of any kind
and theircontents.-; No Companies are more reTiaMe,
more worthy of confidence, give greater aatfafaction,
and pay losses more promptly.
During the paat five year, many hundreds of the
moct prominent citizens iu North Carolina have secu.
red Policies through my Ageucy; no complaint for de
lay in paying lose, as soon as proven, ha ever occur
red, nor can I recall one instance of any mkunder
standing, nor changemaae or deception UKed in secu
ring policies, to which cans I am mainly indebted for
the steady Increase of my business. H. C. Reed, a
former Agent, made some J&lae statements and promt,
aes, which I promptly corrected. He has sine fled the
State and will probabry never return.
All persons contemplating insuring their lives or
property, aire most cordially invited to examine Into
Uie cost thereof, and the character o my Companies,
before applying elsewhere, and no man who has a
family dependent upon bis income, or who has a home
exposed to loss by fire, should be without a policy.
