HrNrs IN CARVING. carve fowls,
which should always be laid with the
breast uppermost, place the fork in the
breast, and take off the wings and legs,
without turning the fowl; then cut out
the merry-thought; cut slices from the
breast, cut out the collar-bone, cut off
the side pieces, and then cut the carcass
in two. Divide the joints in the leg Of
turkey. In carving a sirloin, cut thin
slices from the side next to you (it must
be cut on the dish, the tenderloin un-
derneath), then turn it. Help the
guests to both kinds. In carving leg
of mutton or ham begin by cutting
across the middle of the bone. Cut a
tongue across, and not lengthwise, and
help from the middle. Carve q fore
quarter of lamb by separating the
shoulder from The ribs. Help each one
to a piece of kidney and its fat. Carve
pork and mutton in the same way. To
carve fllet of veal, separate the breast
and brisket, and then cut up, asking
which part is preferred. In carving q
pig, it is customary to divide it and
take off the head before it comes to the
table, as to many persons the head is
revolving. Cut off the limbs and divide
the ribs,

KEEP Your PIANo-FoRTE IN ORDER

KEEP Your PIANo-FoRTE IN ORDER.-
Have your piano-fortes tuned at least
four times q year, by an experienced
tuner; if you allow it to go too long
without tuning, it usually becomes fiat,
and troubles tuner to get it at concert
pitch, especially in the country. Never
place the instrument against an outside
wall, or in cold, damp room, partic-
ularly in a country house; there is no
greater enemy to piano-forte than
damp. Close the instrument immedi-
ateiy after your practice; by leaving it
open, dust fixes on the sound-board, cor
rodes the movements, and if in damp
room the strings soon rust. Should
the piano stand near or oppositesa win
dow, guard, if possible, against its be-
ing opened, especially on a wet or damp
day; and when the sun is in the window
draw the blind down. Avoid putting
metallic or other articles on or in the
piano-forte; such things usually cause
unpleasant vibrations, and sometimes
injure the instrument. The more equal
the temperature of the room, the better
the piano-forte will stand in tune.

SMOKING HAMs.-Where smoking is
practiced on large scale, house adapt
ed for the purpose should be erected.
A very good substitute is obtained by
means of an empty sugar hogshead.
In the inside bottom fix sufficient
number of hooks to suspend the hams.
Get quantity of sawdust (oak is best),
lay it on the ground in circular form,
so that it may be covered BY the hogs
head. Turn up the bogshead, SO that
the mouth is on the ground. Hang up
the hams on the hooks, set fire to the
sawdust, and, if little draft of air is
required, prop up the side of the hogs
head about an inch with small stone.
The sawdust will shoulder, and the
ham may be used as soon as smoked.

How TO Cook SALT PoRK.-Many peo-
pie do not relish salt pork fried, but it
is quite good to soak it in milk two or
three hours; then roll in Indian meal
and fry to a light brown. This makes
a good dish with mashed turnips, or
raw onions cut in vinegar; another way
is TO soak it over night in skim milk and
bake like fresh pork; it is almost as
good as fresh roast pork.

WlFE's POWER. good wife is to
man, wisdom, strength and courage; a
bad one is confusion, weakness and de-
spair. No condition is hopeless to
man where the wife possesses firmness,
decision and economy. There is no
outward propriety which can counteract
Incidence, extravaganza and folly at
home. Man is strong; but his heart is
not adament. He needs q tranquil
mind; aid especially if be is an intelli-
gent man, with whole head, he needs
its moral force in the conflict of life.
To recover his composure, home must
be place of peace aud comfort. There
his soul renews its strength; he goes
forth with renewed vigor to encounter
the labor and troubles of life. But if
at home he finds no rest, and there is
met with bad temper, jealousy and gloom
or assailed with complaints and censure,
hope vanishes. and he sinks into despair.

A dispatch from Scranton. Pa, May
Dist, says In January, 1874, James
Conroy, a miner, was assassinated at
Spring Brook, now Moosic, five miles
from this city Every circumstance
pointed to miner named Patrick Kelley
as the murderer, and he fed No move
ment being made by public authorities
to apprehend the murderer, John Jen-
nings, an intimate associate of the MUIR
dered man, took a solemn oath over the
grave of his friend to follow Kelley until
he had captured him, and either handed
him over to justice or visited summary
vengeance on him himself. A week af-
ter the murder Jennings started on his
search for Kelley. He visited the min
ing regions of this State, aud every
haunt OF murderers aud other despora-
does therein, but, although hearing of
Kelley once or twice, could not get on
bis track. The mining regions Of Ohio
and Virginia were next searched In
Virginia he learned that man answer
inc Kelley's description had worked there
and had shot a miner and was forced to
leave. it was believed for Nevada With
only this slight clue Jennings set out for
Nevada, and vainly searched the dig
gings for hundreds Of miles A month
ago be returned home. broken in health,
pcnniless and disheartened ; but learn
ing that Kelley had left the country, and
that relatives had received letters from
him from the Cornish mines, he COM
mcnced preparations to sail for England.
Last week at Mahanoy City, Schuylkill
county he was told of man who was
working in mine near there who had,
on one or two occasions while drunk,
boosted of killing man near Scranton.
The description given of this man so an
swered Kelley that Jennings resolved to
SEQ him before sailing. He accordingly
visited Shenandoah very quietly and Sc
cured the services of Constable Maley.
The two returned to Mnhanoy City and
obtained an interview with the miner.
He was at once recognized as Kelley by
Jennings, and made desperate resistance
to arrest, but was secured and taken to
Shansndoah and locked up to await the
action of the Luzerne county authorities.
Kelley was also recognized by the Of
liccr as a member of one Of the worst
gangs Of desperadoes in the coal regions.
He was recently arrested for completely
in an outrage at Robinsou's Patch, and
was out on bail. When taken into Gus
tody he had on his person three loaded
rcvolvers, blood-stared bowie knife, a
slung shot and billy.
