DESTROYING R.rs.-Corks. cut as thin
as waters, roasted or stewed in grease,
and placed in their tracks; or dried
sponge in small pieces. fried or dipped
il, honey. with little oil of rhodium,
or birdlime, laid in their haunts, will
stick to their fur and cause their de-
parture. If live rat be caught, and
we'll rubbed or brushed over with tar,
nr train oil, and aftcrward allowed to es-
cape in the holes of others, they will
disappear. f
BRoILED SwEETBREAps. The best way
to cook sweetbreads is to boil them
thus: Parboil them and then put
them on n clean gridiron for broiling;
when delicately Drowned, take them off
and roll in melted butter in place to
prevent their being dry and hard.
Some cook them on a griddle, we'll but
tered, turning frequently; and some
put narrow strips of fat salt pork on
them while cooking.

PUDDING WITHOUT EGes.-Rice, large
pearl sage, and tapioca. are best when
made without eggs. Sprinkle little
OF any one of the above at the bottom
of pudding-dish; add a little sugar
and fill up with milk. Stir well before
placing in the oven. To the sage add
q small piece of cinnamon, broken up.
The rice must bake quite four hours,
the sage and tapioca about three.
Skim-milk will do if you cannot spare
new milk.

TAKE CARE OF THE GRlNDsToNE.-A
good g1indstone is worth saving. If
you leave it in the sun, the top gets
hard and glossy. If the lower por-
ton is kept in q trough of wa
ter, the portion so saturated will
wear fast, and consequently become
fat. If you have the stone hung true,
and keep it under cover, it will remain
as sound as it came from the quarry;
that is, if it was uniform in quality,
then, it will remain SO. If you have
water-tight vessel suspended over the
stone with a faucet or other arrange
ment for letting the water on the stone
regularly, to be graduated at pleasure,
it will be found not only economical
but very much more pleasant for grind
ing on than a stone as usually kept.
Try it.

SUGAR CAKE.-Half pound of butter,
half pound of sugar, one pound of
-four, three eggs, and milk enough for
dough. Beat the butter and sugar to-
gether, whisk the eggs light and add
them, stir in the milk and flour alter
nately so as to form dough. Roll the
dough out, cut in cakes, and bake in a
moderate oven.

To Avolp GREASY BUTTER.-Churn
with pressure Instead of friction. The
dash churn brings butter better ly pres
sure, and makes better butter than
most other kinds of churns. Butter
should also be worked by pressure in
stead of friction. The ladle or worker
should not be drawn across the butter,
but pressed down upon it.

brown take them out.

SALT TO Pound OF BUTTER. At q
recent meeting of the Fulton Farmers
Club, Pas, the question was asked
"How much salt should be put in a
pound of butter?" One answered, half
an ounce; another gave the recipe of
Sharpless the noted dairyman of Ches-
ter county, which is one ounce of salt
to three pounds of butter.

A NICE Way TO BAKE AprIrs.-Take.
sour apples, dig out the cores, place
the apples in deep dish or lin, fiji the
cavities where the cores came out with
sugar. pour cup of hot water in the
tin, bake in a quick oven, and you will
have healthful and pelatable dish.

To Cook RlcE.-The following is the
method recommended by the French
Academy for cooking rice, during the
seige of Paris. Take one cup of rice
and one-fourth of cup of water in a
saucepan. cover and place over good
fire; after an hour the water will be
evaporated, and the rice cooked tender,
but dry, and with the grains dictinct,
not in paste. Sufficient salt should
be added in the first place, and care
should be taken not to disturb the rice
while cooking. By adding little but
ter, and allowing the rice to dry lit
tie more over o gentle fire, a more deli
cate dish is prepared. The Boston
Medical and Surgical Journal says that
rice cooked in this manner, which is
the same as that employed in the East
Indies, bears the same relation to the
indigestible paste of the New England
kitchen as does bread to boiled -four.

DIRECTION FOR WASHING CALlCoEs.--
Calico clothes, before they are put in
water, should have the grease-spots
rubbed out, as they can not be seen
when the whole of the garment is wet.
They should never be washed in very
hot soap-suds; that which is mildly
warm will cleanse them quite as well,
and will not extract the colors so much.
Soft soap should never be used for
calicoes. excepting for the various
shades of yellow, which look the best
washed in soft soap and not rinsed in
fair water. Other colors should be
rinsed in fair water and dried in the
shade. When calicoes incline TO fade,
the colors can be set by washing them
in lukewarm water, with beef's gall, in
the proportion of teacupful to four or
five gallons of water. Rinse them in
fair water, no soap is necessary, unless
the clothes are very dirty. If so, wash
them in lukewarm suds, after they have
been first rubbed out in beef's gall wa
ter.
The beef's gall can be kept several
mouths, by squeezing it out of the skin
in which it is inclosed, adding salt to it,
and bottled and corked tight. A little
vinegar in the rinsing water of pink,
red and green calicoes, is good to
brighten the colors and keep them
from mixing

A HYGIENE BREAKFAST. The Laus of
Life gives the following:-For private
family, first, a saucer of oatmeal pud-
ding with creamy milk (sugar or ma
pie syrup if desired) and light, warm
corn gems set before us. This answers
the same purpose, healtLwise and other
wise, as soups at our ordinary dinners;
and though in some families, where the
warm part of the breakfast is put on the
table, at first it may not be desirable to
leave it cooling while eating first
course, yet it is considered better to
give the stomach transportation before
beginning the harder, dryer part of the
meal. So next, if convenient to the
housekeeper, we will be served with
warm mashed potato, milk toast and
nicely prepared Lima beans, with
continuation of the corn gems. This
may sound scanty, but we are sure from
experience that such breakfast makes
up richly, both in quantity and quality
for what it may lack in variety, and
gives better satisfaction than a table
loaded with so many different kinds of
breads, buildings and sauces that the
partaker must either go through an Oft
times perplexing process of selection,
or fall o weak victim to the effects of
taking as many kinds as are offered
him.

Pnvat. Or Short Telegraph Lines.

The magnets in the Nonpareil Telegraph in
str,lments are made of different resistances,
and they are furnished to work lines up to
five miles in length.
Persons ordering instruments to operate
lines Of more than half mile In length
should state the length Of the line, and size
or number Of the wire on which they desire
to work them, in order that magnets of pro-
per resistance and the necessary amount of
battery may be furnished.
The demand for some inexpensive yet COM
plete apparatus, by the means of which the
Geographic art may be acquired has long
existed, and has constantly grown more ur-
gene general use e the desire to became familiar
with its operation has also increased. The
low price at which the Nonpariel is furnished
makes It no exaggeration to say that this
knowledge may be acquired by its use at less
than one fourth of what it would otherwise
cost. 1t also furnishes very interesting
study and practice for young men and young
ladies for the long Winter evenings.
The Telegraph is enlisting in its service ev-
ambitious and enterprising of the youth of
the country of both sexes. 1t Is destined to a
vet mightier development. and it is impossi-
BILE to foresee to what extent the demand for
time there is no surplus of good operators.
BY means ofthe Nonpariel Telegraphic APP
paratus every intelligent person may become
a telegraph operator
tertaining as means of establishing commu-
nication between the apartments and houses
of friends or relatives, and between places of
business and residences.
A wire may berun at a very small expense,
and thus not only can reliable and instanta-
neOus communication be had at all times, but
persons engaged in learning to operate will
he able to acquire facility in telegraphing
much more rapidly and agreeably.
Price Of Inst -ument and Battery, Conn
plete, $40.
With each instrument is furnished three
cells of battery, chemicals for charging bat
terry. sufficient wire for office connections and
the instruction book.
Line wire (NO. 12) per mile, $50; Insulators
including brackets, 20 cents each.
These prices are but a reasonable advance
on the manufacturers rates, to cover freight
charges and expenses.
u Many of these instruments are in use
on Puget Sound and in Victoria, and give
universal satisfaction.
