gray oyercoat, topped with fur cap,
and Nettie bound up in gloriously
striped shawl and a wooden hood to
match, the three jolly beggars, as Mr..
Bulger gaily designated the trio, wend-
ed their way down the dirty court and
up the grimy stairs to the poor lodg-
ing which Tommy and Nettie had left
ages before on ali aimless search which
had turned out far beyond their Wild
est expectations.
Now YOU wouldn't believe that it all
turned out just like a real story book,
and Tom and Nettie's mother proved to
be Mr.. Bnlger's pretty sister Helen who
had married some years before against
his will, and whom he had purpOsely
lost sight of for ever SO many years.
And he had them all up to a grand
Christmas dinner at his own home,
which Nettie was surprised beyond
measure to find she had real lace cur
tains and a brass knocker, and before
the new year had set in the widowed
Helen was installed there as mistress.
and Mr.. Bulger went about his bust
ness with the face of a cherub and a
concealed chuckle which was always
threatening to break forth. He has
had a golden motto framed and hung
up over his pariOr mantel and that
sweet word is one which the Saviour
wore on his heart:
Charity.

The following are from a cores
pondent of the London Agricultural
Gazettee
Sage Cream Soup.-An old fowl that
is only fit for the stock-pot makes de-
lightful stock for this soup, and it may
either he boiled till every particle of
goodness is extracted or if q less strong
stock is wanted, it may be boiled till
tender, and the meat afterward used
UP i'm some of the made dishes where
white meat is required. Add TO the
stock while boiling, some whole white
pepper and a blade OF mace. Strain
and skin the stock this last operation
is best done with what is called kitchen
paper, 4 most useful article, and of
which supply should be at the com
mand of every cook. Lay the paper
on the top of the stock and draw it off;
the fat on the top will adhere to it,
and the process should be repeated till
the paper comes off free from grease.
For every quarts of stock take three
ounces of sage or of tapioca, wash it in
hot water, and boil itin the stock for
one hour. Break the yelks of two eggs
in a basin, and add to them half a pint
of cream OF milk pour into it gradu
ally little of the not soup, then turn
il all into the remainder Of the soup
and heat it up, taking care it does not
boil. The stock for this soup may
be made of rabbit, or Of veal, or of a
mixture of all three.
Beat Steak Prdding.-Cut up ] ID
pounds of beat into neat steaks Dip
the chopper in cold water and beat
them little to flatten them and make
the meat more tender; roll them up
with q little pepper and salt inside
Line q pudding basin with suet crust
made in the proportion Of g ounces OF
suet 81 pound of flour. Take care ~
put the crust quite down TO the bottom
of the basin, or the pudding viii break
Cut the crust off even with the top of
the basin, lay in the meat; if liked,
add some chopped onion, half fill the
pudding with cold water, cover over
the top with a lid of paste reserved for
the purpose, having previously wette d
or better still egged the edges of each.
Tie up in a pudding cloth wrung out of
boiling water and sprinkle with flour.
Boil for at least three hours. A couple
of sheep kidneys sliced and added to
the pudding, very much improves the
flavor of the gravy, and, if liked, three
quarters of a teaspoonful of baking
powder may be added to the crust
but it should be borne in mind that
whenever baking powder is used, the
utmost expedition in finishing up IS
necessary, as fermentation commences
from the moment the water is added.

The Kitchen.

The following excellent advice about
Kitchen.and how to keep them clean,
appeared not long since in Scribner's
Monthly:
The first consideration in Il cooking
room as cleanliness. Tried by this
test parered walls are an abomination
in such a place. You can not darken
this room through parts of the day in
summer, is you do others, and conse-
quently fly specks will be numerous.
These walls absorb the kitchen odors
and steam and the smoke rests loving
ly upon them. If creeping things get
into the house, they are sure to insin-
uate themselves into the paper on the
walls. Hardfnished walls are more
cleanly, for they can be washed; but
unless they are finished better than
the kitchens we have seen, they soon
look dirty, and this is the next worst
thing to being so; for such finishing
soon becomes discolOred and
"splotcIy." There is nothing that
will compare with the old.fashioned
whitewash pure and simple. The
color wash may give the walls pref
tief tint, but it must be put on 10y a
practiced hand, whereas whitewash
may be applied by any one, whenever
a dirty spot makes it appearance.
1t is true Impractical hands do not
apply the brush as evenly as could be
wished, but a few streaks more or less
don t matter we can all see streaks
are white and clean. Don't have the
wood work painted don't have any
thing painted. Things in a kitchen
will get soiled. 1t follows they must
be cleaned. Soap is foe before which
paint invariably quits the field. Very
soon the color will be off in spots, and
nothing less than repainting the whole
room will ever make it look clean
again. 1t is still more Objectionable
to leave the wood in its ratiye state.
1t requires frequent scrubbing to keep
this clean, and even the process will
not suffice to keep all sorts of wood in
good condition. Some woods actually
blacken under the scrubbing brush.
But if the native wood, even common
kind. is well oiled and vanished light
", the room will be prettier for it,and
with very little washing the wood
work can be kept sweet and clean.

milking capacity. When it is double
it denotes breath of vertebrse, which
corresponds with the broad, open
structure which is favorable to p large
flow.
IT is an accompaniment of broad
hips, and these in turn denote large
cavity, which is essential 10 good
mixers.
The milk mirror, or esentcheon OF
Guenon. is one of the leading indica-
tions of milking capacity. 1t consists
of the peculiar appearance of the hair
ON the udder.
Looking at the hind part of COW,
more or less of the hair which covers
the uddcr and adjacent parts, will be
seen to turn upward and outward.
This reversed hair forms the so.called
escutcheon. If the space occupied 10y
the upturned hair. especially the lower
part of it, is very large and broad, so
that it extends far outward on TO the
thighs, it is regarded rs indicating
arge flow of milk. If the upper part
of it is broad and smooth, it is regard
ed as favorable to a long flow. If the
reversed part of it is narrow and IT.
regular in its upper part, tits unfayor-
able to Il prolonged flow. The manner
in which the inverted lair connects
with the adjacent, is supposed to have
significance. \ gradual blending,
rather than abrupt connection. is pre-
ferred.
The connection of the escutcheon Tor
scutcheon) with the flow of milk, is
accounted for by Magne, who says
that the hair turns in the direction in
which the arteries ramify, and that
the reversed hair on udder and ada
cent parts ind. Gates The termination of
the arteries which supply the ndder
with blood. When these arteries are
large, they are not confined to the I'D
der, but extend down through it,
and upward and outward, Tamifying
on the skin beyond the udder, giving
the hair the peculiar appearance which
distinguishes it from the rest of the
surface. Ifthe arteries supplying the
udder with blood are very small, teey
are not likely to extend much beyond
the udder, and hence form small
escuteheon. Henee.a small escutcheon
indicates a feeble supply of blood TO
the udder, and consequently but little
material to make milk out of, and
hence a small flow of milk.

The Banks in the Courts,

TIE Supreme Court of Pennsylvania
has just decided that any national bank
that charges rate of interest that is
usurious in the State where it is stu
ated must forfeit the entire interest,
and may be compelled to pay the per-
son overcharged a penalty of double
the interest that has been paid, pro-
vided it be sued for within two years.
A suit brought against the Ocean bank
of New York, by a depositor who had
lost some valuables by the burglary
several years ago, has been decided in
the banks favor, but a new trial has
been granted. The judge instructed
the jury that the bank was not respon-
sible if the officers employed trust
worthy servants and instructed them
properly, and on these Instructions the
jury found for the bank. The judge
who granted the motion for new
trial took the opposite ground that

Of the employer" and this seems to
be the better law.

Funerals as DIsease-Breeders.

From the London lancet.
THERE is good reason to believe that
disease is occasionally disseminated
through the medium of funerals. We
have at least one fair authenticated
instance in this country of diphtheria
being diffused broadcast through the
crOwd:ng incidental occasionally to
the last ceremony. In America this
question is beginning to receive much
attention, and several cases have been
reported Of late where the transmits
sion of the disease from the corpse
seemed highly probable. The Suffolk
District Medical Society sent out 400
circulars to medical practitioners,
with view to asceTtaining the opinion
of the profession on the alleged danger
Of permitting public funerals Of per-
sons who had died from diphtheria.
Two hundred ard thirty-nine answers
were received. OF these, ~ writers
expressed belief in the possible dan
ger of contagiOn at such funerals
seventeen believe that there is danger
from funerals in the houses Of the
dead. but none in churches twenty
nine fancy that, in the present state of
knowledge, there is 10 justification IN
prohibiting public funerals; and eight
record circumstances which occurred
in then. own experience cOnfrmatory
of the proposition that peril may en-
sue. bat tile testimony these latter adj
vance is not quite satisfactory. The
Society, after due consideration. rec
ommend that funerals at the houses of
those who have died of diphtheria
should be private. owing to possible
exposure to the poison Of the disease.
