How TO 10 u SHIRT BosoM5 AND
CoLLARs.-We have often been re.
quested by lady correspondents to state
by what process the gloss on new lin.
en-, shirt bosoms, &c, is produced and
in order to crafty them, We su6join
the following recipe:-"Tako two
ounces Of fine white gum arabic pow
der put in a pitcher, and pour a
pint or more of boiling water, accor-
ding to the degree OF strength you
desire--and then having covered it.
let it stand all night in the morning
pour it earthly from the dregs into a
clean bottle, cork it and keep for use.
A table spoonful ofgum water stir
red in a pint Of starch, made in the
usual manner, will give to lawn, eli
ther white or printed, a look of new
ness, when nothing elco can restore
them after they have been washed
We hope that those trying this recipe,
in which we have faith, vii! give us
sovcrally, their opinion Of the result.
Every housekeepor is anxious for some
certain mode Of doing up gcntlemen'8
linen and ift the foregoing should
prove all that is needed, after proper
trials, we should like to know it, as it
would confirm our own Judgment in
the matter. ."--&cjentife Amertcan.

BREAD.--Itis is said that one of the
most wholesome kinds Of bread that
can be used is made thus, without salt,
saeratus, yeast, or rising of any sort;
--"Take bolted or unbolted -four or
meal; thoroughly moisten the whole
with pure soft water, scalding hot,
that is, about one hundred and sixty
degrees Fahrenheit; make it up firm,
not sticky, then roll and cut into strips
Or any other form; not over a quarter
Of an inch thick, and half an inch
broad. Bake quickly in a hot oven,
until the dough has acquired soft,
fine, brown color, or until the water
has nearly all evaporated." IIydropa-
thists says that a sweeter bread than
this was never tasted. 1t certainly is
pure bread, cannot sour, will keep al.
most indefinitely; and, if made OF nm.
bolted -four, must be the most health
full and nutritious bread that can be
prepared. But people wont use it, be.
cause they have not been accustomed
to it-iust as Hans would never use
iron tire to his cart wheel, because he
had never seen one used. Besides,
most persons have an unconqcurable
prejudice against using OF doing any
thing that has unmixcd good in it
