Recipe for Curing Meat.


To one gallon of water, take one and a.
half pounds of salt, One-half pound Of su-
gar, One-half ounce of potash. In this ratio
the pickle can be inereas d to any quantity
desired. bet thsSe be hOiled together until
all the dirt from the sugar rises 20 lac top
and is skinned of. Then throw it into a
tub to cool and when cold, pour it over
your beef or pork. The meat must be well
covered with pickle, and should not be put
down for at least two days after killing,
during which time it should be slightly
sprinkled with powdered Saltpetre, which
removes all the surface blood, ETC., leaving
the meat fresh and clean. Some omit boil
ing the pickle, and find 1t to answer well,
though the operation of boiling purihes
the pickle by throwing OFF the dirt always
to be found in salt and sugar. Ii this re-
cipe is strictly followed, it will require only
a single trial to prove its superiority over
the common way or ways OF putting down
meat, and will not soon be abandoned for
any other The meat is unsurpassed for
sweetness and delicacy.

In Mrs Dozier's parlors in Fourteenth
street, last evening. the woman suffragists
were delighted with the existing political
mxedness, as calling louder than ever for
the abolition of distinction of sex at the
ballot box.
Henrietta Payne Westbrook said that
statistics have brought out the startling
fact that farmers have on the average, in
the course of their lives, 216 wives apiece!
The speaker said that if II man was reduir-
ed to take care Of his own clothes, he
would find less time for IOafng; that our
country has need enough Of a general holo-
caust among the politicians that there is
much boasting Of the exposuie of fraud
and corruption, but that cleaning the out
side of the cup and the platter will content
men, while nothing but turning things up
side down will make the women content.

CHRISTMAS EVE.
BY NJ. H. BAscoM.

114AoNNlA-
I'd been reading quaint old poem.
And thinking ii DER the while

A garment from old to new-style
The book lay open before me.
And now and then on the page
I'd glance to see If correctly
were thinking OfwOrdS 50 sage.

And fanefed and pOnde ed and thought
I'LL wonderful train of fancies
IN my fanciful brain was wrought.
For the castles and monks and minstrels
I'd Granny OF thought for each,
Tho the mysti.a lore Ofthe great bard
Was almost beyond my reach.
But1 pictured the gray-haired minstrel.
In the shade of the ancient tree.
While the lords and ladies around him,
Were almost real life 10 me.
Indeed if the past could be present.
And they had walked in at the door,
Ibelieve I'd have courtesied grandly
Quite sure l had seen them before.
And when a slight noise up the chimney
The fre was burning quite low
Was followed Immediately after
Bya mixture Of SCOT and snow.
] never once thought OF old Santa,
Till his eyes twinkled ont Of his coat.
-and 4 ina ha rippled so gaily,
From his dumpy, fur-clad throat.
He clapped his plump hands together,
And danced round Jig on his toes,
While the SCOT and snow fell in torrents
From the folds of his shaggy clothes.
Ibegan to think rs intruding,
And was quietly starting for bed
When he brought me round about facing.
By quick little thump on the head.
He glanced at the queer row of stockings,
From baby Nell's up to tall JOe's,
And then with a hand on each shoulder.
He Whirled me around ON my toes.
soon understood his meaning.
And told him each darling's desire,
And himself went back to the fire.
/ smiled to myself as 1 thought of
The def little thump on my head,
And hastily dOnning my night-clOthes,
Was soon sound asleep in my bed.
Daylight was speeding the darkness,
When ehiidren's voices in glee,
In merry tunefuf chorus
Made sleep from my eyelids flee.
!, Zach had what he or she wanted,
And they wondered it should be so;
While peeped in through the doorway
For the tell-tale SCOT and snow.
But 10! they had vanished with santa
The hearth was all clear and bright,
And only the toys did assure me
0fhis visit the previous night.
