Too much cannot be said or written on
the subject of cooking, for life, health,
prosperity and happiness depend upon the
quality Of the food we eat Many man

wrecked hopes to heavy bread, tough bis.

Stomachs ought to have sheet-iron lin
ings to endure the burdens and insultp
heaped upon them by Intellectual house,
wives.
Those long-faced. glum sort Of people.
to whom it seems sin to laugh and drive
dull care away. are most likely the victims
of indigestion which brings on multitude
|of diseases and makes invalids. Soa man
may work and do bis best to accumulate .
fortune-but if.his wife does not properly
prepare his food. or. if they can afford; it,
see that her bired help does it, in the
midst of increasing prosperity and bright
prospects that man is very likely TO fall
sick; and when his strength is gone, the.
spirit of his project dies out, and every
thing sinks down stagnant and ifeless.
Women have far greater responsible
ty in these things than many Of them like
to admit or assume. It requires verylit-

Good housekeepers know SO many ways
to save and economise. of which an un.
|practiced hand is entirely ignorant. Ex.
perienced cooks make delicious and inex.
pensive dishes Of odds and ends left over
fran meal to meal, which in most house,
holds are more or less wasted. Who
would believe that the we'll picked bones
of roasted chicken. with two or three
little beef bones taken from the broiled
beef steak which was served at breakfast,
boiled two hours in about quart of va
ter, will make excellent soup. good for
the sick and tempting to the most delicate
taste? Try it and sec..
Soup is strengthening. and can be made
much cheaper and easier than most people
imagine. Beef bones are just as good for
soup after they have been roasted as any,
and save much expense. s,

him run, dance and jump; when over

Such pleasures, unearned by work. are
