Hints for the Housewife.

Apple Sno,o.-Pare and core twelve
apples, steam until tender, set the ap-
pies aside to cool, then pour over them
a whip made of the whites of three
eggs beaten to a stiff froth. Serve with
sugar and cream favored with extract
vanilla.
Hyacinths all Winter-The hyacinth
is one of the most beautiful and fragrant
of the bulbous flowers, and PAL ticularly
desirable for house culture. Even half
a-dozen grown in pots and Towering
during the winter, will afford more
pleasure to the loved ones at home"
than the same amount of money spent
in any other way. With how much
pleasurable anxiety they watch the
shooting forth of the bright leaves, the
rising of the stately column while the
opening of the first bud makes joyful
thanksgiving of the most dreary win
ter's day. A very small pot will answer
for the hyacinth. Some prefer to plant
three or four in large pot, and this
will make a very pretty ornament.
Cover only the lower half of the bulbs
with soil, press them down until they
are nearly covered, then water until the
soil is moistened thoroughly, and set
the pots in a cool, dark cellar. The
roots will there form, with but little
growth of top. Here they may remain
for several weeks, and pot or two at a
time can be taken into warm, light
room, for Towering, a week or ten days
apart, and succession of flowers OBJ
tanned during most of the winter.

The Foundation Knocked from Under
British AristOcracy.

A Mr.. James Philippe, of Bedford
Row, London, has made startling an
nouncement through the English pa
pers which must carry CONSERVATION
into hundreds of aristocratic families.
What Colenso has done to the Penta-
teuch, Mr.. Philippe has done to the
companion volume, the British Peer
age. He has discovered that "nearly
the whole Of the pedigrees hitherto pub
lished are fictitious" and the geneo-
logical MSS. in the British Museum
" simple trash ;" while Gas for the Her
AIDS College having any right to grant
coats of arms, it is so absurd that it is
wonderful that any person should be
tertain any such humbug." This is
awful. If no man can be sure of his
own ancestors, and no peer swear to his
own crest and quarterings, it is obvious
that the foundation is knocked from
under the whole social and political
system of the British Empire. There
may be plebeians in the House of
Lords, and vulgar blood may mingle
with the blue ichor of royalty itself.
OF course, when this happens, it is all
up with old England. And as for the
ambitious people-Americans especially
who at great expense have obtained
from the Heralds' College, or whatever
the proper Office may be, gorgeous
pedigree " certified by John Brown or
some other distinguished individual,
with something tremendously ridicu-
lous under his sign-manual in tn ):
shape of Green Dragon, Two-headed
Elephant, etc." we do not envy their
feelings when they discover that their
roll of ancestors is pure invention, and
for aught they know about it they may
not have had a great-grandfathe to
bless themselves With.

Cause you're too big to ride.

Don't scowl at them so fendishly,
And talk about police"
And when, adown Division street,
The bobs come flying fast,
Just step aside, with cheerful haste,
And let the boys go past
Don't kill the boys-the happy boysl
The winter soon is o'er;
And childhoods sliding times will pass.
To come, alas, no more J
Think of your ewn glad boyhood's days
Know how it is yourselfl
Don't wish the whole world packed away
Because you're on the shelfl
Don't kill the boys-the happy boys
But. in the starry night,

Go freeze your nose and frost your toes,
In many q jolly ride;
And then with glowing heart you'll feel

SMALLPOX and Vaccination.

The City Sanitary Inspector of New
York, in report on contagious diseases,
says with reference to the smallpox:
It is the unanimous opinion and ex-
preston of the medical officers of this
Department that vaccination is not only
safe, but certain preventive of small
pox, when properly, carefully, and judi
ciously performed; and, as proof of
its protective value, it may be stated
that among over 100000 persons vacci-
mated by the Health Inspectors of this
Bureau during the past year, there has
not yet been found one who has con-
tracted smallpox, or its modified form,
who had been successfully vaccinated
previous to becoming infected, while
numbers have fallen victims to this dis
ease who refused to allow the Inspectors
to vaccinate them at the time of ex-
posure. We are fully convinced that
this extraordinary success is due in a
large measure to the fact that vaccine
virus has while in fresh and active
condition only, has been used no crust
or scab has ever been used by us. Our
practice has been only to use such virus
as has been taken from well-selected
healthy child, the afternoon previous,
rejecting that which had become 72
hours old. A supply of bovine virus,
direct from the animal, was used to a
limited extent during the past summer,
which gave no better result than that
from children's arms, and as its propa-
CATION was attended with much diff
Guilty, and a sufficient supply could not
be obtained for our large demand. ex-
cept at a great expense, it was aban-
doned. In the use of childhood lymph,
with the results as proved by our stats
tics of successful vaccination and re-
vaccination, certainly no man should
cavi.. The absolute protection afforded
so large number of persons of whom
by far large majority had been exposed
either directly or indirectly to this fear
full disease, should go far to convince the
most skeptical of its inestimable value
To the carelessness and neglect of pa
rents and physicians, and the opposition
of the misinformed, uninformed, and
injudicious, may be attributed, in 6
large measure, the success of an cpl
demic form of this loathsome disease
