Broth of Beef, Mutton and Veal
Take two pounds of lean beef, one pound
of scrag veal and one pound of fore quar-
ter of mutton; put them, with ten pepper
corns and spoonful of salt, into five
quarts of water, and boil slowly for five
hours. Strain and set away to cool skim
off all the fat, and ifthere be any left, lay
a clean bit of blotting paper on the broth
when a little warm, and it will absorb all
the grease.
Hates Snow Pudding.-Pour one
pint of boiling water on half a box OF
gelatine, add the juice of one lemon and
two cups OF sugar. When nearly cold,
strain; add the whites of three eggs,
beaten to froth, then beat the whole
well together and put in Il glass dish.
Take the yOlks of these three eggs, one
pint of milk, one teaspoon cornstarch,
flavor with vanilla and cook as you al
ways do soft custard; pour it round the
jellied part or serve separately as you
prefer.
Take plenty of exercise, and you will
not complain of sleeplessness. The best
anodyne is liberal amount of mus cular
activity out of doors every day. Persons
who sit around the fire and lounge ON the
sofa, or sew a great part of the day, need
not expect sound sleep; only the labor
ing man can taste it in all its sweetness
Many fail to sleep at night because they
will persist in sleeping in the day time
II is just as impossible to healthtully
force more sleep on the system than the
proportion of exercise requires as to
force the stomach to digest more food
than the body requires.

A Talk About Food.

WHATEVER will tend to show poor
people what to eat in such times as these,
less expensive than their accustomed
diet, will be of value to them. For this
purpose we venture "A few suggestions:
Fresh meats of all kinds at the price
retailed by butchers are not economical
food. Sailed meats are cheaper than
fresh. In economiZing food meat should
never be fried. If you would get the
most substance ont of fresh meat, make ii
into soup or stew. The best meat is the
most economical for soup. Do not buy
bones.
Do not buy your bread at the bakers.
Homemade bread is far more nutritious,
besides being cheaper. Make use OF
corn meal, Graham flour, or hominy, in
preference to fine wheat flour, both for
health and economy. Hominy is an arti-
Gle that no family DESTROYS of practicing
economy should dispense with. 1t is
very cheap, and contains no moisture
while the best of -four holds from twelve

to fifteen pounds of water to the barrel
One hundred pounds of Graham flour are
worth as much in a family AS 133 pounds
of white flour. Corn meal costs less than
half the price of flour. 1t Is worth twice
as much.
Buckwheat flour should never be in
dulged in by families who are obliged to
economic food. 1t is dear at any price.
1t must be Heated in dear butter, and
many say it is not healthy. a cheap arti
Gle of food is white beans. They retail at
six to ten cents per quart, and are worth
from 81 IS to s.. so per bushel. Professor
Liebig has stated that pork and beans
form compound of substances peculiarly
adapted to furnish all that is necessary to
support life and give bone, muscle and
fat in proper proportions to man. This
article of food will enable one to perform
more labor, at less cost, than any other
substance Poor people can hardly afford
to eat potatoes at 81 per bushel; they cost
about half as much as a bushel of beans,
while a bushel of the latter are worth as
much for food as a eart-load of potatoes.
Rice is cheap article of food, and very
wholesome.
Vegetables are not considered econom-
ical, although they may be sandwiched
in occasionally for a change. Carrots are
the cheapest of all roots, but they are lit
tie used as human food, though very nu-
iritious. Turnips are dear at any price.
There is more nutriment in a quart of
carrots than in a bushel of turnips. Tur-
nips are ninety-two per cent. water. Cab
bage is nutritious, but rather expensive
Buy very little of il if your money is
short Another excellent and economical
article of food is peas.
1t would be good for a change to those
who are put to their wits end to know
how to get enough to feed their families
if anything that we have said shall put
them in way of changing some of their
old habits, so as to buy such articles as
