A NICE PUDDING SAUCE egg, !
cup sugar, beaten to q stiff froth; then
add the Juice of half o lemon (or ex-
tract), and Just before sending to the
table pour over it 4 cup sweet milk.
CHICKEN SALAD.-Boil the chicken
until done in as little water as posi-
BILE; when done, cut up into small bits /;
take half as much celery stalks as
chicken, cut into very thin slices; have
ready 2 hard-boilcd eggs; slice the
whites into the chicken, mash and mix
the yelks with 1 tablespoonful Of mus
tard; stir in half and half vinegar and
the water in which the chicken was
boiled, rs much as needed to cover the
salad, heat to boiling, and pour "
your chicken and celery.
CARROTS FOR EGGs.-It is not gen.
orally known that boiled carrots, when
properly prepared, form an excellent
substitute for eggs in buildings. They
must, for this purpose, be boiled and
mashed, and passed through a coarse
cloth or hair sieve strainer. The pulp
is then introduced among the other in
gradients of the pudding, to the total
omission of eggs. a pudding made up
in this way is much lighter than where
eggs are used, and is much more pala-
table. On the principle of economy,
this fact is worthy the prudent house.
wifc's attention.
LEMON MINCE MEAT.-Take 6 large
apples, 2 large lemons, 8 ounces Of beef
suet, 8 ounces of white sugar, 1 pound
of c%urrants, and 2 ounces of candied
orange and citron mince the apples and
beef suet fine, add the currants and
sugar, squeeze the juice from the
lemons into a cup, and boil the squeezed
lemons till they are tender enough to
beat to Il pulp; then add them and the
citron cut fine to the mince meat, and
pour the lemon over the whole.
A WHITEwAsH THAT WILL STAND
EXPOSURE TO THE WEATHER.--Take !
bushel of freshly burned lime, slake it
with boiling water; cover it during the
process to keep in the steam. Strain
the liquid through a fine sieve, and add
to it : pounds of salt previously well
dissolved in warm water; 3 pounds OF
ground rice boiled to a thin paste and
stirred in boiling hot; 4 pound of pow
dered Spanish whiting; / pound OF
clean glue, which has been previously
dissolved by soaking it well, and then
hanging it owe a slow fire in a small
kettle, within a large one, filed with
water. Add 8 gallons of hot water to
the mixture, stir it well and let it stand
a few days covered from dirt. 1t must
be put on quite hot. For this purpose
it can be kept in a kettle on a portable
furnace. About a pint Of this mixture
will cover a square yard.

To be Beautiful In the Spring.

The late DIR. Harriet Il. Hunt was
once asked how she managed to keep
plump and fair in March and April,
when every body else was green and

"Oh, I should look like other people

said.

Philadelphia has a surplus of 10000

that the Quaker City has motives aside

other hand, they are to be Congratulated

The disease receives different names In
various parts Of the country. In some Sec
tons 1t is called dyspepsia, in others IL is
termed liver complaint; sometimes they call
II kidney disease, and 1t others humor in
the blood. The fact is, that all these dis
eases are present to some extent in nearly
every case, and this disease prevails to an
alarming extent throughout the whole land.
Hardly a household but what has some in
mate afflicted. We advise those who have
the following symptoms to use an effective
remedy, and eradicate the disease from the
system: There is generally a dull pain In
the head, with dizziness at times, foul
breath, bad taste in the mouth, irregular
bowels, poor appetite and imperfect diges-
ton, distressed, all gone feeling like the
gnawing Of u cancer In the pit of the stomach,

dry hacking cough, but Is followed after a
time with expectoration; then q wasting

soon death closes the scene. c Is the

German Wives.

The culinary art forms a part Of the
education of the women in Germany.
The well-to-do tradesman, like the me-
chanic, takes pride in seeing his
daughters good housekeepers. To eff
feet this object the girl, on leaving
school, which she does when about four
teen years of age, goes through the
ceremony of confirmation, and then is
placed by her parents with a country
gentleman, or in n large family, where
she remains one or two years, filling
what may also be called the post of
servant, or doing the work of one.
This is looked upon as an apprentice
ship to domestic economy. She differs
from a servant, however, in this--she
receives no wages; on the contrary,
her parents often pay for the ARE taken
of her, as well as her clothing. This is
the first step in her education as house
keeper. She next passes, on the same
conditions, into the kitchen of a rich
private family, or into that of a hotel
of good repute. Here she has control
of the expenditures of the servants EN-,
ployed in it, and assists personally in
the cooking, but is always addressed a.
Miss, and is treated by the family witt

Origin and Source of Petroleum

At first it was held by many that pc.

in its vicinity, and this belief wa,

mel and Boghead coal, afforded large
quantities Of similar oils on being dis.
titled; but, although this is very proba.
bly, the source of a small amount of oil,
yet the larger part of it is now believed
to derive its origin from rocks lying be-
low the coal measures, since the oil.
bearing rocks are mostly older than the
carboniferous formations.
Some investigators have ascribed Il
vegetable origin to petroleum, but most
authorities agree in %attributing it Ia
animal as well as vegetable agencies.
Shales are the most common oil-bearing
rocks, and in their formation the or.
ganic materials would be finely divided
and protected from oxidation. The
~oil-bearing shales commonly show few
vegetable remains, anil Dana observes
that the absence of distinct fossil ami.
nal and vegetable remains points to IN
abundance of delicate water-plants, or
infusorial or microscopic vegetable life
as the source of the organic material
contained in them. Limestones, on the
other hand, are frequently full of ami,
NAL fossil remains, showing an animal
origin for the oil in them, although it
is by no means agreed that the petro-
leum in certain limestoHes was derived
from organic remains in the limestones
and not from other strata below them.
In whatever shape the finely divided
material was originally present, il
would be finely diflused through the
mud, and protected from atmospheric
agencies, and subsequently the hydro
carbons would be formed from them,
probably at but a slight elevation OF
temperature, produced by the same
agencies which have caused elevations
in the temperature of the interior of the
earth's crust at various points.
Dana has further pointed out how
petroleum might be formed by the reac
ton of the organic vegetable re
mains alone, the abstraction of som,
carbon and oxygen, as carbonic acid
accounting for the formation of tn,
lighter oils; while the escape of SOM
~marsh-gas from less confined materia
would account for the heavier oils
