Saws writer IN the st. Nicholas: "There
are Various recipes for keeping bouquets
fresh. Some people stick them IN moist
sand; some salt the water IN the vases ana
others warm it others, again, use few drops
of ammonia My rule is to cool the flowers
thoroughly at night When the long day Of
furpaceheats has made the roses droop and
their stems limp and lIfeless, l clip them
little, and set them to float in marble basin
full of very cold water. In the morning they
come out made over into crisp beauty, as
fresh and blooming as If just gathered. All
flowers, however, will not stand this water
cure. Heho,rope blackens and falls to pieces
under it; azaleas drop from their stems, ana
mlgnone,te soaks away its fragrance. For
these use Dry, cold air. wrap them in cot
ton wool, and set them on shell In the ice,
chest I can almost hear you laugh, bat
really am not Joking. Flowers thus treated
keep perfectly for week with me, and often
longer"

FARM AND GARDEN.
Washed and Unwashed Butter.

The flavor of butter that has been washed is
different from that which has not been WASH
ed. The difference between Washed anu un
washed butter is analogous 10 tne uiheitn i
between clarified and unclarl1ed sugar Inc
former consists of pure saccharine ha''eI, .ne
latter of sugar ard some albnminouS ana ma
vOr,ng matters which are contained IN 'he
Juice of the cane mingled WIN IL, Which gave
a flavor in addition TO that RI the sugar
Brown sugar though less sweet has more ia
vor Than clarified sugar. When unwashed
there is ALWAYS a little buttermllk and sugar
adherlpg TO the butter that give it a peculiar
flavor in addition to that of pure butter, which
many neople like when it is new Washing
removes all this foreign matter ana leaves on
w the taste of the butter pure and simple.
Those who prefer the taste the butter to the
foreign ingredients mixed with 1t like the
washed butter best.
The assertion is often made, and many peo-
pie believe that the water washes out the fla.
vor of the butter, but it only cleanses the but
ter OF the buttermllk, sugar and milk acid,
which may adhere to it, just as clarifying su
gar removes from it the foreign matters which
modify its true flavor. The flavor of butter
consists of fatty matters which do not com
blne with water at all, and cannot therefore
be washed away by it.
The effect of Washing upon the keeping
quality OF butter depends upon tne purify 0i
the water with which the washing is done IL
the waiter contains no foreign matter that VIII
affect the butter, it will keep better for wash
ing the buttermil on, than by working it out
But If the water is hard from the presence OF
lime or containing anything that would ID
jure the butter by contact with it, washing be-
comes an injury instead of a benefit to It's
keeping. Nothing but the best ana pures,

Symptoms Of a Diseased Liver.
TAIN in the right side, under the
edge ofthe ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain
is felt under the shoulder-b blade, and
it frequently extends to the top Of
the shoulder, and is sometimes mis-
taken for rheumatism in the arm.
The stomach is affected with loss Of
appetite and sickness the bowels IN
Ccneral are costive, sometimes alter
native with lax; the head is troubled
with pain, accompanied with a dull,
heavy sensation in the back part.
There is generally considerable loss
ofmemory, accompanied withapain-
full sensation of having left undone
something which ought to have been
done. A slight, dry cough is some
times an attendant. The patient
complains ofwcariness and debility;
he is easily startled, his feet are cold
or burning, and he complains of a
prickly sensation Of the skin; his
spirits are low; and although nc is
satisfied that exercise would be benc'
fetal to him, yet he can scarcely
summon Up fortitudc enough to try
