USEFUL RECIPES.

Tomato C0tsup.-Cut one peck Of
ripe tomatoes in halves, boil them in a
porcelain kettle until the pulp is all dis
solved, then strain them well through a
hair sieve and set the liquor on to boil,
adding one ounce of salt, one or mace,
one tablespoonful of black pepper, one
teaspOOnful of red pepper, n table
spoonful of ground cloves,five of ground
mustard let them boil together for five
or six hours, and stir them most of the
time. Let the mixture stand eight or
ten hours in a cool place, add n pint
of vinegar, and then bottle it: seal the
corks and keep in a cool, dark place.
Hop YeaSt.-Here is an excellent re-
ceipt for yeast. Boil two QUIZ ces of the
best hops in four quarts Of water, for
half an hour. Strain it, and let the Ii
quOr cool down to new milk warmth.
Then put in a small handful of salt and
half a pound of sugar. Beat up n
pound of aour with some of the liquor,
and mix all we'll together. The third
day add three pounds of potatoes. boiled
and mashed fine. Let it stand until the
next day, and then strain it though a
cOllender to take out any Jumps, and
bottle it, cOrking tight, and set in a cool
place. 1t is ready for use as soon as it
is strained, and half a teacupful will
raise a moderate sized baking of bread,
say an Ovenful of a moderate sized
stove. Before using. shake the bottle
up well. While making. it must he
stirred frequently. and kept in a warm
room, or zeal the fire IN winter. 1t Will
keep for two months in a cool place,
and is better not bottled till it has done
working, say the day after it is strain
ed, SO it will not burst the corks out of
the bottles.

The Art Of Forgetting.

What a blessed thing it is that We
can forget, To-day's troubles look
large, but a week hence they will be
forgotten and buried out of sight. Says
IN writer:
IF you would keep a book, and daily
put down the things that worry you.
and see what becomes of them, il would
be a benefit to you. You allow a thing
to annoy you, just a. you allow a fly to
settle on you and plague you; and you
lose your temper Tor rather get it,; for
when men are surcharged with temper
they are said to have lost it; and you
justify yourselves for being thrown off
your balance by causes which you do
not trace out. But if you would see
what it was that threw you off your
balance before breakfast, and put it
down in a little book, and follow it up.
and follow it out, and ascertain what
becomes of it. you would see what a
fool you were in the matter"
The art of forgetting is a blessed art
but the art of overlooking is quite as
important. And if we should take time
to write down the origin, progress, and
outcome of a few of our troubles, it
would make us so ashamed of the fuss
wemake over them, that we should be
glad tOdrop such things and bury them
at once in eternal fOrgetfulness. Life is
too short to be worn out in petty MOI.

How to Get An ADDetitA.

To a mar or woman without an appetite,
1.-The best the market affords" presents little
or no attractions. The sooner such q hapless
individual puts the gastric organ il q condi-
ton TO enjoy the edible comforts which a
bountiful providence has provided, the more
reason there will be 10 feel grateful for the
suggestion. To do this, invigorate the stomach
with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which will
enable that organ TO digest properly, and
since good digestion is the parent Of appetite,
give birth 10 a desire for food at the intervals
appointed by nature. With chronic want OF
appetite are usually associated nervousness,
biliousness and constipation, three evils
which are speedily overcome by the Bitters.
All persons OF q dyspeptic or bilious tendency
should use this healthful tonic daily. or at
least three or four times a week. A pursuance
of this course will soon insure and confirm q
radical change for the better in the condition
of the stomach and associate organs.

Railways in London.

Nearly all the English railways which
have termini in London pass through
from four TO ten miles of the metrop-
oils ard its suburbs. and. on that part of
their lines. carry immense numbers of
passengers who live in the suburbs, and
are employed in the city. The stations
are but about half a mile apart, and be.
tween s and 9 IN the morning and 6 and
in the evening both stations and trains
are crowded. Fares are conveniently
arranged for shcrt distances, and on
nearly all trains you may ride by first,

second class. There are also trains

gers al even lower rates than those
named above. A laboring man may
live in some suburban village ten miles
from his work, and yet ride to and fro
daily for about fifty cents per week.
More than half a dozen prominent rail-
ways, running to various parts of the
United Kingdom, have stations within
ten minutes walk of the Bank Of Eng
land and Royal Exchange.
The Underground Railway is n of
the great enterprises of modern Lon
don, and carries immense numbers OF
passengers. 1t makes almost a COM.
plete circuit of the chief part of the me-
tropolis. which lies On the north side of
the Thames. Toward the west and
northwest it has some branches and
suburban connections, but does not ap-
proach the suburbs in any other direc-
ton; hence its trade is largely confined
TO central London, but is immense new
ertheless. Trains run every ten min
utes: stations are about half a mile
apart; nearly all the trains have the
usual three classes of cars, and fares are
a triie higher than on the other rail-
ways. To show its enormous traffic n
capacities, / may mention that on Whit
Monday if carried more than 100000
people; yet its length, exclusive of the
suburban branches, is but about eight
miles. The day ! have mentioned Wa
a public holiday, and John Bull had on
his best clothes, and was out enjoying
his beer, and perchance taking a run
into the country; hence that must not
be taken as an average days work for
the Underground Railway. 1t is. in
fact. the highest figure it has yet reacil-
co. The longest of its suburban branch
es reaches to Richmond, which is less
than ten miles from the Bank, but this
branch leads to Richmond Park and the
famous Kew Gardens, and to these
places they carry great Numbers OF peo-

but the right Of way was very costly,
and the difficulties they encountered
were tremendous. The last fiscal year
the stoc kholders received a dividend OF
four per cent. which is considered rea-
good in England, where money
is SO abundant and the rate of interest
so low. The stock IS now worth about

dends of five or six per cent.
