OYSTER ToAsT.-Scald quart of fresh,
plump oysters in their own liquor Then
pound them in marble mortar, if you
have one; If not, lay them on the bread
board and pound with pestle. When
pounded till they form paste, add a lit
tie cream, season with pepper, and, if
needed, little salt. Have some nicely
toasted bread all ready, cut thin and
evenly, and spread the oyster paste on it.
Place in the oven long enough to heat
through; sprinkle over some finely
chopped pickle after it leaves the oven,
and serve; or serve the chopped pickle In
separate dish, lest it may be disagreeable
to some.-Ch christian URiOn.
TREATMENT OF HEN CANARIEs WHILE
NOTING. Keep plenty of saffron in the
drinking water. Give sopped bread and
milk fresh every morning. Crush mix
ture of canary, rape and a little hemp
seed, and give little fresh every morn
ing Give her water to bathe in when
the sun shines. Be sure she is not in
tested with parasites-bird vermin; if you
have any doubt, put white saucer or
small vessel containing water under the
bird when she goes to roost for the night,
and if she has those tormcntors you will
see in the morning some floating on the
water. 1t is worth your while to look at
them through microscope. Take s6ine

Corn HUsK frames may be made very
prettily and simply by taking pastehoard
or thick paper to sew the husks on. Then
select your husks; take fine white ones,
but not the finest. Take husk, and cut
1t into strips three'quarters of an inch
wide and three inches long. Then double
it together in bow as In tape trimming.
Put two rows of these bows around the
inside of the frame. Next cut piece the
length of the bows and the width of the
husks, and bend the two ends together.
Now take your needle, and slit it very
fine through the center, and then sew the
two ends that you hold in your hand on
the frame overlapping the row of bows,
one row of this slitted work. Then sew
on another row of bows; then take some
more pieces of slitted work, and turn, and
| go lengthwise of the frame-nOt crosswise
as before. That forms the outer edge OF
the frame. Take a thin piece of board
and make frame. Place your glass be
tween your paper frame and your board
frame, and tack or paste your paper frame
down smoothly. You will thus have q
nice rustic frame. Beautiful little card
baskets and lamp mats riay be made in
nearly the same manner Western Rural
