to attend to prepaid letters, was

And thereupon the widow kicked

HOW TO CeOK VEGETABLES.

There is one important objection
which has often been made, through
Ignorance, of the first rule in cook
ing vegetables. 1t 10 observed that
q meal from them is not satisfying.
I have found it frequently happen
that the persons who thus objected,
did not know even how to boil .
vegetable. The rule 10 simple but
must never be forgotten. Every
kind of vegetable intended to be
served whole, should, when put to
boil, be placed at once In boiling
water and this applies especially
to potatoes and vegetables from
which the outer cover has been re-
moved. Now, ii often happens
that potatoes, etc, are, to save time,
placed in cold water and LEFT to
boil gradually. 1t Is Just this which
allows the nutritious matter to es-
cape, and renders the meal unsatis-
flying. When, on the contrary, the
water boils from the moment the
vegetable isimmersed in it, the al.
bumen is partially coagulated near
the surface, and serves to retain the
virtue of the vegetable. The re-
verse Is, of course, the rule for ma
king soap, OF any dish from which
the water viii not be drained. By
placing the vegetables In cold wa
ter, the albumen Is slowly dissolved.
and actually mixes with the water

production of natrifive soup. Its

special need for the most their
money can produce, viii learn, in
whatever haste they may be, not 80
boil all the albumen from their po.
tatoss, reservfng for their tables on.

DOMESTIC ECONOMY.

Straw table-mats may be cleaned
by washing them in washing.soda
water. Lay them out in the sun,
and, when nearly dry, press them
between cloths or papers.
Remnants of Food.-A dish thas
has no more than the appearance of
palatableness has at least that much
to fecommendit. Nicely of appear
ance is inexpensive and within the
reach of the humblest. We have in
mind special reference to the serv-.
ing of the remnants of food, which,
above all dishes, require dainty are
rangement. If cold meat is to be
served, it should be thinly sliced
and laid on q clean platter. Rem
nants of food should never be put
away in gravy, if intended to be
eaten cold. Warmed-up vegetables.
etewed fruits, sauces, pnddings,
etc., should appear on the table In
clean dishes, and not in the dish
they were sent from the table in,
unless cleaned. Some housewives
send warmed-up food to the table
in the dish in which they were
warmed, which is always untidy.
A dish which Is presentable at the
table should not be subjected to the
heat required in cookery, excepting,
ofcourse, pie and pudding dishes.

An officer of one of the exploded New
York savings banks proves to be defaul-
ter to the amount of about 100000, all of
which seems to have been gambled away

some particulars, but illustrates deep
seated evil. 1t appears that he fell into the
hands Of two sharpers who 1ourished in
Wall street, lived elegantly, had cottages at
Long Branch, etc, and made quite an i'm
preston Of wealth and reliability on the
weak mind Of the bank officer. They
tempted him to try his luck in stocks, and
like experienced gamesters, allowed him to
win small sums at first SO as to increase his
risks, until at length he was suddenly in
volved in heavy losses and went on steal
ing from the bank in hopes of recupera-
ton. The names of these men are given
in the New York papers, and they are
charged with having in like manner ruined
another man previously, who committed
suicide, his wife being responsible for the
