This is staple food in majority Of
families, during several months of the
year, and in most cases the cooking may
be greatly improved. The two chief er-
rors arc, first, in losing large portion of
its real nutriment. We always preferred
it as follows:-Soak in warm, not hot
water, just long enough to take out all
excess of salt. Then cover it SO that
the steam will condense upon the under
side of the cover and fall back. Thi,
will prevent boiling away, and also the
loss of much Of the nutriment, Which,
in an open vessel, goes of with the steam.
Boil the meat several hours, or until 1t
is SO thoroughly done that it will not hold
together to be lifted with a fork If
there be any bones, take them out; since,
if cooked enough, the meat will clcave
from them readily. Pack the meat by
itself in deep dish, mixing well togeth.
er the lean and fat portions. Next,
skim the fat, and boil the liquor down,
SO that when poured over the meat it
will just fill the spaces between the pieces
Then lay over the whole Hat cover
which will fit into the dish, put on .
dozen or twenty pound weight, aud let
it stand until co..ai. Several aat-irons,
or large stone, will answer for The
weight, or if convenient it may be set
under cheese press. Prepared in this
way, the poorest piece Of tough corne
beef will be made tender and juicy.
Boiling down and using the liquid, saves
the most nutritious portion which is usu.
ally thrown away. The celatine Of the
condensed gravy, when cold, forms
solid mass with the meat, which may
then be cut up into slices for serving
upon the table. If the fat and lean por,
tons be mixed, when cut up cold, tho
pieces will present beautiful narbled
appearance. Corned beef prepared iu thi
way will not only bc eaten with SUPER.
or relish, but will not, on account Of ito
toug ghness, be swallowed half mastcatcd
it produces irritation in the stomach, and
yields only portion of its substance at
nutriment. Over the common process
there is only the extra trouble Of tho
additional boiling and pressing, which
are amply repaid by the saving Of nutri
ment, while a cheaper quality of bee
will be rendered wholesome and profitable
Try this mode, and you will not willingly
go back to the hard boiled ''ineyitably
salt junk" Mutton cooked in the above
manner Is very nice. .---iyricultutiSt.

Frozen to Death Case.

| During the cold snap IN November, twU
persons wore frozen to death in the viciu.
| ity of st. Joseph, Mo. One was ne,
gress Of DR. France, who got lost in q
thicket near Platte river, and was found
the next day after severe storm, lifeless
and stiff. and the other white woman.
an eccentric stranger who had wandered
into the neighb orhood Of the Platte, ask
ing aims, which, in that rich country
were freely given her. No one knew her
history, nor did she seem to have friend
on earth, except a little boy, some nine
years old, whom she called her son, and
who was the faithful companion of her
erratic perrecrinations. The account in
the st. Louis Republican says:
When this cold spell came, gentle
man advised her to come to town, when
he would see that she was comfortably
provided for; but she refused and said
that it was her destiny to wander. The
second morning after the little boy came
to his house and told him that his moth
er was dead, that she had frozen to death,
and that he was almost frozen, too The
gentleman took the poor little fellow and
had him warmed and wrapped in thick
clothing--for his garments were thin and
tcrn--and then went with him to the
place where the dead mother lay The
spectacle was narrowing.
In the corner of deserted cabin, that
had neither door nor windows to shut out
the cold, among some miserable remnants
of old clothing which but half concealed
her snowy limbs, drawn up as still in the
agony of freezing, she lay a frigid corpse.
Her countenance, however, was as serene
as though she slep, and faint smile was
seen to linger timidly about the corners
Of her mouth, if it had been long a
stranger there, but had come back at this
last moment to let the stranger, as be ga
zed upon it, know that the face, On
which misery and woe had left so many
imprints, had once known happiness. Her
features were delcately moulded, her feet
and hands were small and indicated gen
tie blood. He statue was of medium
height; her form well turned, and her
age, in death, appeared to be between 2s
and 80; an hfr, it had seemed forty.
The little boy is wholly obliyious of the
place of his nativity, nor does he know
another name than George. She called
him George" and he had indeed wan
dered with her from his earliest memory.

die with grief and then weep until she
became calm again. He walked her once
or twice and told her he would not leave
her, when she clasped him in her arms
and said, "No, my son, know you will
not leave me- And then he thought it
was some one else of whom she dreamed
perhaps his father, bat he did not know
nor even ask her. She was always sad,
and wept almost incessantly. She appear
ed to be in search of some one and made
the asking aims pretext for looking into
evcy house along the way of her long,
weary pilgrimage.

Effects Of Oils Oh the Hair.

1t has been ascertaincd, by n writer in
one of the London magazines, that, SO
far from its being true that oils and po-
matums increase the luster Of the hair,
their effect is to diminish that polish
which it naturally possesses; willie, what
ever gloss they may give TO the hair,
which is naturally dull, is false, and like
all other falsities, disgusting Absolute
cleanliness, by means of water alone, to
commence, followed by brushing i'll the
direction of the hair itself, in dry state,
is the true method of giving to I'll. hair
all the polish of which it is susceptible;
and it is the effect of oils Of all kinds to
disturb or injure this, to say nothing of
the disgust and necessary dirtiness OF
greasy hair 1t is the effect of oils, also,
to prevent it from curling; and this OBJ
iect is most effectualIy attained, if with
out artificial means, by curling it when
wet, and suffering it to dry in that state
And as it happens that almost all hairhas
a tendency to curlin one direction rather
than another, it is useful to study that
tendency, SO as to conform to it in the
artificial hexure given.

Medical s~es Of Ice.

The medical use Of Ice has now be-
come very extensive. Medical men ad-
wise, as chief part Of the treatment for
inflammation of the stomach, the eating
at frequent intervals, of small pieces Of
ice, and for inflammation Of the brain. its
constant application to the head. A
draught Of any ice-cold fluid, when taken
in state of health, produces relief by
lcssening the amount of animal heat
which the human body is constantly gen
Grating, first by absorbing a portion of
it; aud second, by allowing it to pass off
with the surchargcd fluids, in the shape
of the perspiration it induces. Its relief
in fever arises from precisely the same
causes. In inflammation. either external
or internal, it aids by reducing the size
of the vessels carrying blood to the in
fam.d part, and if sufficiently long con
tmucd, arrests it altogether.
