PICTORIAL. 1t has been known to the public about
forty years, by long continued series Of marvel
lous cures, that have won for it confidence in its
virtues, never equalled by airy other medicine. 1t

skill. Indeed the CHERRY PECroRAL has really
robbed these dangerous diseases of their terrors
to great extent, and given feeling of immunity
from their fatal effects, that is well founded If the
remedy be taken in season Every family should
have it in their closet for the ready and prompt re-

PAINLESS PERIL.-The latest foreign
professional investigation of the respect
i've dangers of popular anasthetics shows
that chloroform is eight times as perilous
to human life as ether, twice as perilous
as an equal mixture of itself and ether,
and more dangerous even than bichlor-
ide of methyline. A report on chloro-
form by com mittee of eminent London
physicians declares that, with every care
aud precaution taken in the most exa CT
dilution of its vapors, chloroform must
still have the power in some cases to
turn insensibility into death.

HARVESTING PoTAToEs.-As soon as
potatoes are grown and ripe, they had
better be dug, whatever the time of year.
1t is thought by many that potatoes will
not keep well in the cellar if dug early.
This is mistake, provided they are
ripe. We have raised early potatoes for
several years past for main crop, be-
cause they could be harvested early and
the ground sown to grass in season to get
we'll established before winter. We
have dug the whole crop in August, and
found no trouble about keeping them
well in the cellar. One year, find
ing they we're being seriously injured by

while the vines were green and the tn
Der little under ripe, and they kept as

Domestic Recipes,

TOMATO CATsuP.-Wash and drain
two bushels of fair, ripe tomatoes cut
out the stem and any imperfect spot, put
the fruit into kettle, giving each one
squeeze to break the skin as you throw
them in Ca brass kettle, secured perfectly
bright, is the best, as being less likely to
burn on the bottom than the porcelain
kettle) Cut up twelve ripe bell peppers
and as many onions, and put them with
the tomatoes. Set the kettle over the
FIRE and let the fruit cook two hours,
stirring often from the bottom to prevent
sticking or burning. Then strain through
wire sieve, or better still a patent scoop
aud sieve combine !, made of tin, with a
crank or handle to turn the paddle,
which easily presses the juice and meat
through the strainer at the bottom, ieav-
seeds and skins inside. When strained,
add pint and half of salt, quart of
vinegar, three table spoonfnls of ground
cinnamon, three of black pepper, two of
cloves, two of allspice, two Of mace and
one of ginger. Boil slowly twelve hours.
Of course it cannot be finished in one
day, but at night must be emptied from
the kettle into large wooden or earthen
bowls, covered over closely and left to
stand till morning. The brass kettle
should be well cleaned and dried as soon
as emptied, that no verdigris may form
in or around it, and to be all ready for
use the next day. In the morning put
the catsup into the kettle again and boil
slowly all day, or till as thick as rich
cream, so that no clear liquid may rise
to the top. Stir often from the bottom !:
as it thickens it will stick to the bottom
if not carefully stirred and scorch very
easily. That will spoil the whole, 1t is
