How SALr FIsH SHOULD BE FREsHEN-
ED.-Many persons are in the habit of
freshening mackerel or other salt fish,
and never dream that there is right
and wrong way to do it. ANY person
who has seen the process Of evapora
ting going on at the salt works, knows
that the salt falls to the bottom. Just
SO it is in the pan where your mackerel
or whitefish lies soaking; and, as it lies
with the skin down, the salt will fall to
the skin and there remain, when if
llaced with the flesh side down, the salt
falls TO the bottom of the pan, and the
fish comes out fieshened as it should he.
In the other case, it is neatly as salt as

The Kitchen.

we Will give to Intellect, TO morality.
to religion, and 10 all virtues, the honor
that belongs to them. And sill it may
be boldly affirmed that economy, taste,
skill and neatness in the kitchen have a
great deal 10 do in making life happy
and prosperous
Nor is it indispensally necessary that
q house should be filed with laxnries.-
All the qualifications for good house
keeping can be displayed as well on a
small scale as on large one
A small house can be more easily kept
clean than palace. Economy is most
needed in the absence of abundance.
Taste Is as we'll displayed in placing
the dishes on pine table, as in arrang..
ing the folds in damask curtain.
And skilled cooking is as readily dis
covered in nicely baked potato, or q
respectable johnny cake, as in a nut
brown sirloin or q brace of canvas
backs
The charm of good housekeeping is
in the orier, economy, and taste dis
played in attention to little things; and
these little things have wonderful in
fuence.. aa h8f
A dirty kitchen and bad cooking have
driven many a one from home, to seek
for comfort and happiness somewhere
else, et..s
Domestic enonomy is science-a
theory of life which oil sensible women
ought to study ard practice. None Of
our excellent girls are 6t to he married
until they are thoroughly educated in
the deep and profound sciences of the
kitchen.
See to it, oil We who are mothers, that
your daughters are all accomplished by
an experimental knowledge of good
housekeeping, mi
