All About Oysters.

OYSTER SOUP.-Put two quarts OF
oysters, liquor and all, in Il pan, set
them on the stove to heat, but don't let
them boil or come very near to 1t now
drain all the liquor into your soup
kettle, and put in a pint OF water ana
two quarts of new milk, half Il pound
of butter, a little whole all-spice and
pepper. Have the oysters all this time
where they will keep warm, add them
and salt them to taste. Just as you are
ready to serve the soup, break up some
crackers fine and put into the soup be-
fore the oysters are put in.
Salt should always be put in the last
thing, and in soup, stew or fricassee
where milk is used it is apt to curdlc.
Oysters should never be boiled but
only scalded; it makes them tough
and shrinks them all up. If they are
to be stewed, heat them hot but don't
boil them. Always have the soup or
gravy hot.
| OYSTER STEw.-Put as many good
fresh oysters, with their liquor, as you
think you will need into pan on the
stove to heat, but not boil. Drain the
juice off in a pan. AS soon as it bolis
add half pound of butter and some
pepper. When this boils add a pint Of
cream and thicken Il little with flour
after this boil up once, put in the oys-
tiers and more salt if necessary. serve.
OYSTER TOAsT.-The same as the pre-
ceeding, but no cream. Thicker the
ijuice little with flour. When the
stew is ready, have a few slices OF toast
laid in a dish well buttered, and pour
the oysters in it. 1t is best to heat the
dish hot that you put your oyster in to
send to the table, as they are so much
better hot than merely warm.
OYsTEL STEW WITHOUT CREAM
Make in all respects the same as with
cream, only substituting half Il pint OF
water for the cream. Many persons pre-
fer oysters in this way.
OYSTER FRITTERs.-Make a batter
Of milk, flour, eggs, cream of tartar, sal
eratus, salt in proportion. Don't make
any thicker than for pancakes. Drop
an oyster into each spoon OF batter as
you dip it out and fry in hot lard.
Brown on each side.
OYSTER FRIED.-Draln the oysters
well roll in fine-rolled cracker and fry
in hot lard and butter, two-thirds lard
and one-third butter.
| OYSTER PIE.-Line a deep basin
with puff-paste; fold a large towel and
place inside to support the lid, then roll
and ornament piece of paste, the same
as for common pie; put on the basin
and bake slowly. Have an oyster stew
made as above, without cream, and till
the basin as soon as the paste is done.
Serve Immediately.

TWO LITTLE PAIRS OF BOOTS.

Two little pairs of boots, tonight, -
Before the fire are drying,
Two little pairs of tired feet
In q trundle-bed are lying;
The tracks they left upon tho floor
Make me feel much like signing.
Those little boots with copper toes!
They run the livelong day!
And oftentimes I almost wish
That they were miles away;
So tired am to hear SO oft ...-s. .
Their heavy tramp at play.
They walk about the new-plowed ground
Where mud in plenty lies,
They roll it up in marbles round
And bake it into pies
And then at night upon the floor
In every shape it dries.
To-day, was disposed to scold;
But when look tonight
At those little boots before the fire,
With copper toes so bright,
think how sad my heart would be
To put them out of sight.
For, in truth, up stairs, I've laid
Two socks of white and blue;
If called to put those boots away,
o, God, what should L do?
I mourn that there are not tonight
Three pairs instead Of two.
7 mourn, because thought how nice
My neighbor "cross the way,''
Could keep hcr carpets all the year
From getting worn or gray:
Yet, well l know she'd smile to own
Some little boots to-day!
We, mothers, weary get and worn.
Over our load of care;
But how we speak of little ones
Lot each of us beware;
For what would our tiresides be Tonight
Ifno little boots We're there?
Mrs. 5. S. PERRY.

Taking Cold.

The human frame was intended for
activity-to run fast, and to run slow
but it must be managed. a locomotive
can run very fast, but if stopped instan
taneously when going at Il high rate of
speed, it is unjointed as badly as if it
| had had intiammatory rheumatism for
seven years. a skillful engineer, how
ever, tones down his speed gradually;
taking cold. 1t is exposure, or care
lessness, after exercise that brings on
cold. After walking, or running, or
dancing, or any exercise that quickcns
the circulation, a little current of air
from IL window, Il crevice.. from an open
door, for a few minutes, just to cause
| Il chill, is sure to produce cold. Merely
stopping on the street in a current of
:,ir-as at corner where the wind
breaks or makes an angle-will do the
job. Any sudden subsistence of active
forces of the body in a temperature that
chills will produce cold. The little
common sense that is needed, and for
the lack of exercise of which so much
money is paid to doctors, is to preserve
an equablc temperature, or, having
exercised freely, recover the proper
state gradually and without Il chill.
This is attained in Il most simple and
easy manner. After exercise, always
seek rest in a sheltered place, where
you will be warm; never being haSty
to remove hat, gloves or cape. Let
perspiration subside before describing,
if indoors, and if outdoors, always keep
gently moving until the usual condi-
ton is attained.

Have the Hogs \ Good Bed.

Farmers waste food by not insuring
perfect case and comfort to their fatten-
ing animals, and this remark applies
as well to neat stock as hogs. The same
grain fed to two pens of spring pigs of
the same litter and of the same number
the one lot having a clean yard and :,
comfortable nest, and the other living
in a mud-holc, and sleeping on the cold
earth or on something more uiSagrcca-
ble--will, in the one case, add in weight
at least twenty per cent, more than in
the other. Give the pigs "A clean yard
and a clean, soft bed, if you would get
the worth of your grain.-/iea,Th 0,',l

ANOTHER BALLAD FROM TRUTHFUL
JAMES.

Tho last Overland Monthly" contains
the Following pathetic narrative:
PLAIN LANGUAGE FROM TRUTHFUL |
JAMES.
(rAB1.E MOUNTAIN, 1901
Which wish to remark-
And my language is plain
That for ways that are dark
And for tricks that are vain,
The heather Chinese is peculiar,
Which the same would rise to explain
All Sin was his name;
And shall not deny
In regard to the same
What that name might imply,
But his smile it was pensive and ehild-like,
AS frequent remarked to Bill Nye.
It was August the third;
And quite soft was the skies;
Which it might be inferred
That All Sin was ikewiSe
Yet he played il that day upon William
And me in & way despise.
Which we had small game,
And All Sin took hand:
It was Euchre. The same
With the smile that was child-like and
bland.
Yet the cards they were stocked
In a way that grieve,
Aad my feelings We're shocked
"A, ~ the state Of Nye's sleeve: , ,,o,.o,.
And the same with intent to deceive.
But the hands that were played
BY that heather Chinese,
And the points that he made,
Were quite frightful to see
Till at last he put down a right bower,
Which the same Nye had dealt unto me.
Then looked up at Nye,
And he gazed upon me;
And he rose with q sigh,
And he said "Can this be?
We are ruined by Chinese cheap labor"
And he went for that heather Chince.
In the scene that ensued
I did not take hand,
But the floor it was strewed
Like the leaves on the strand
With the cards that All Sin had been hiding
In the game :" he did not understands"
In his sleeves, which were long,
He had twenty-four packs
Which was coming it strong,
Yet state but the facts
And we found on his nails which wero taper
What is frequent in tapers-that's wax.
Which is why I remark,
And my language is plain,
That for ways that are dark,
And for tricks that are vain, q
The heather Chinee is peculiar
Which the same am free to maintain.

How Monkeys are Captured.

Monkeys are pretty common, yet as
all the families are remarkably cunning,
has it ever occurred to the reader how
they are taken? Pitfalls will take a
lion and the famished monarch will
after a few days starvation, dart into Il
cage containing food, and thus be secur-
ed. But how are monkeys caught p
The ape family resembles man. Their
vices are human. They love liquor
and fall. In Darfour and SEMINAR the
natives make fermented beer, of which
the monkeys are passionately fond
Aware of this, the natives go to the
forest frequented by the m monkeys, and
set on the ground calabashes full of the
enticing liquor. AS soon as the mon
key sees and tastes it, he utters loud
crys of joy that soon attracts his COM
rades. Then an orgie begins, and in a
short time the beasts show all degrees
of ;ntOXicatiOn. Then the negroes APP

far gone to disturb them, but apparently
take them for larger species of their
own genus. The negroes take some up,
and these begin to weep and cover them
with maudlin kisses, when negro
takes one by the hand to lead him off,
the nearest monkey will cling to the
one who thus finds a support, and en-

at him, and so on until the negro leads
a staggering line of ten or a dozen tipsy
monkeys. When finally brought to the
village they are securely Gagged, and
gradually sObered down; but for two or
three days gradually diminishing
supply of liquor is given them, SO as to
reconcile them by degrees to their state
of captivity.
