How To Cook BEEFsTEAK-A method
of broiling equal in every respect to the
gridiron, excepting that it lacks the
smoky taste, is this. Set your spider
on the stove, and let it get smoking
hot. Put in no butter or any kind of
grease. Have your meat previously
prepared by trimming off all pieces of
bone, gland, superfiuous suet and tissue
that will bind the edge and make it
turn up. Lay it very carefully and
smoothly in the spider. 1t will stick
fast at first but as soon as it is Drowned
can be loosed with knife. Sprinkle a
little salt on the upper surface, and
turn it over. Let the other side brown
the same as the first. Have platter
warmed, lay the meat carefully upon it,
without besmearing the edges dress
with butter and pepper, and send to
the table hot. By this process you have
a crisp and brown surface, with the
Juice retained as well as by broiling,
and the additional advantage that the
inevitable drippings are saved, and can
be converted into gravy.

SCIENTIFIC.

CARROTS. Belgium and other con-
tinental countries, the carrot has been
grown as q field crop for longer time,
and to a much greater extent, than in
Britain. In the year 1765, the attention
of the Society for the Encouragement
of Arts, etc., was directed to this branch
OF husbandry, and, in consequence, an
account of the culture of carrots and
the uses to which they may be applied
was published by Robert Billing, a
farmer in Norfolk, who states that he
obtained, from twenty and half acres,
five hundred and ten loads of this root,
which he found equal in use and effect
to thousand loads of turnips, or three
hundred loads of hay. Some of them
measured two feet in length, and from
twelve to fourteen inches round. Horses
are remarkably fond of carrots, and
when mixed with oats they form very
good food for them. The efficacy OF
these roots in preserving and restoring
the wind of horses had. it is said, been
partially known in Suffolk, where car.
rots were administered as q secret
specific for the complaint long previ-
ously to their being commonly applied
as food for that animal. Carrots are
equally beneficial as nourishment fol-
cows, sheep and swine. 1t was stated
some years since that at burlington, In
Yorkshire, the stock of farm, consist
ing of twenty working horses, foul
bullocks, and six milch cows, were fed
from the end of September to the be.
ginning of May on the carrots produced
from three acres of land. The animals,
during the whole of that time, lived on
these roots, with the addition of only a
very small quantity OF hay.
Carrots contain large amount oi
water, Sc parts in 100 lbs. Their most
distinguished dietetical substance is
sugar, of which they possess nearly g.
per cent. Starch is also found in small
quantities, with small portion Of
albumen. The ancients used the seed
both of the wild and cultivated carrot
as an internal medicine against the bite
of serpents they also gave it to ami
mails that had been stung by them.

DEATH IN THE CRLLAR.-Many lar
mers are in the habit of putting all
kinds of vegetables in the cellar and
then banking close, and presently all
sorts of odors come up the cellar stairs,
for there are onions, turnips, potatoes,
apples, and pork; often butter and
milk are kept there, and one imparts
odor to the other, making a perverted
mixture comparable to the victuals OF a
Dutch boarding house, where every
thing is sour but the vinegar. Negeta-
bles that impart strong odor should
not be put in the cellar at all, or at
least only in small quantities. No more
than bushel of turnips should ever be
put in a cellar, but some put in the
crop of an acre of ruta bagas, which
soon begin to sweat, when they faint
the whole house. The true way is have
an outdoor cellar for vegetables, es-
pecially south of Pennsylvania. A eel
lar under a barn is useful, and there all
the odorous vegetables should be stored
permitting the cellar under the house
to be kept as sweet and clean as any OF
the rooms above. Medical men are
well aware that cellars originate fevers,
and some here have given the name
.'cellar-fever" to the disease that origi-
mates from foul cellars.

HAND SHAKING.-How did people get
in the habit of shaking hands? The
answer is not far to seek. In early and
barbarous times, when every savage or
semi-savage was his own law-giver,
Judge, soldier and policeman, and had
to watch over his own safety, In default
of other protection, two friends and ac-
quaintances, or two strangers desiring
to be friends and acquaintances, when
they chanced to meet, soffered each to
the other the right hand, the hand alike
of defense and offense, the hand that
wields the sword, the dagger, the club,
the tomahawk, or other weapon of war.
Each did this to show that the hand
was empty, and neither war nor
treachery was intended. Aman cannot
well stab another while he is in the act
of shaking hands with him unless he is
a double-dyed traitor and william, and
strives to aim a cowardly blow with the
left while giving the right and pretend
ing to be on good terms with his victim
The custom of hand shaking prevail
more or less among all civilized mas
tions, and is the tacit avowal of friend
ship and good Will, just as kiss is of a
warmer passion. Ladies, as every one
must have remarked, seldom or never
shake hands with the cordiality of gen.
tlemen, unless it be with each other.
The reason is obvious. They cannot be
expected to show to persons OF the
other sex a warmth of greeting which
might be misinterpreted, unless such
persons are very closely related to them
by family or affection, in which case
hand shaking is not needed, and the
lips do more agreeable duty.

PUMPKINS FOR Mich Cows.-Pump-
kins will rot sooner IN cellars than
above ground unless the cellar is very
dry and cool. If kept dry and just
above the freezing point they may, by
careful sorting, be kept sound till mid
winter, and as long as they last are
good for milch cows, making rich and
fine favored milk and beautiful yellow
butter. They make better milk than
beets or turnips, but have less fatten-
ing properties than beets, mangolds,
turnips, carrots or parsnips. They con-
tain more water and less organic matter
than any of the roots above named, and
hence greater weight must be taken
to produce equal results. They are
easily raised and are valuable in their
season for the sake of variety in feed
but they cannot be relied on as prof.
table substitute for roots, first because
they are too perishable and short lived
to last till late Winter and Spring, when
green and succulent food is most needed
and second, by reason of a smaller ard
more uncertain yield. An acre of good
ground will easily produce 40 tons of
beets or mangolds, while half that
amount would be a good yield for the
same land in pumpkins.

TACT.-It is said that tact may be ac-
quired, but in general it is gift, and
one not only gratifying to others, but a
source of pleasure to those endowed
with it. 1t surmounts difficulties less
by graphing with them than by in
sinuatlng its way through them with
grace or ease. Tact it always on the
alert, always ready to turn advantages
to account. Like many other gifts, it
may be abused: but it is not of the
good things of life which promote en-
joyment.

DOMESTIC.

TASTE IN DREss.-Far from being of
the opinion of Catharine of Arsgon,
".hat dressing time is wasting time, ;"
the woman, we are apt to think, who
has not some natural taste in dress,
some love of novelty, some delight in
the combination OF colors, is deficient
in a sense of the beautiful. As work
of art q well-dressed woman is study.
That love of dress is natural, and that
it has some advantages, is SO plain as
to be scarcely worth recording. 1t does
not follow that it should engross every
other taste it is only the coquette's
heart which, as Addison describes it, Is
stuffed with ga fiame-coloured hood. !"
From the days of Anne Boleyn, who
varied her dress every day, and who
wore a small handkerchief over her
round neck to conceal a mark thereon,
and a falling sleeve to hide her doubly-
tipped little finger, dress has had its
place in the heart of an English woman.
And it is well that it should be SO, for
the dowdy, be she young or be she old,
is sure to hear of it from her husband,
if she has not already done so from
brothers and fancy cousins. Indiffer-
ence, and consequent inattention to
dress, often shows pedantry, self-righte-
ousness, or Incidence and whilst e1-
tolled by the "unco guide" as a virtue,
may be noted as q defect. Every woman
should habitually make the best of her
self. We dress our rooms with flowers
and make our tables gorgeous with
silver, glass and china-should our
wives be less attractive than all around
them? Among the rich and great the
love of dress promotes taste, and fosters
ingenuity and industry.
