PODularifF.

The popularity of Messrs. James S.. Kirk 8
Co.'S soaps, manufactured in Chicago, is
shown by the unprecedented sale which their
goods have reached during the year 1876. This
by far is the largest soap manufacturing con-
Germ in the United States, producing and selling
in all parts of this country, from the Red River
land, Me-, to San Francisco, q 100000 pounds
annually. No o-called greases en- er into these
soaps. Only pure refined tallow and vegetable
oils are used, containing no adulteration. Fair
and square weights always reliable. This is
why their soaps are so popular with all good
and economical housekeepers.

S~EASONABLE RECIPES.

Chst5Lnsn Lininent.-1 dram sugar of
lead, z drains white vitriol; powder
and add 4 ounces of water; shake well
before using; the best time for applica-
ton is in the evening; it is not to be
used on broken ehilblains. DE-
. Bachelors ButtonS.-Rub 2 ounces
butter into 5 ounces -four, 5 ounces
white sugar; beat l egg with half the
sugar and add the rest; flour to suit;
roll in the hands as large as a nut;
sprinkle white sugar over them; bake
on tins or buttered paper very Light.
Cough Trocbes.-1 ounce Spanish lic-
orice, 2 ounces refined sugar, 2 drains
finely powdered gum-arabic, and extract
of opium, l scruple. Beat the whole
together, with mucilage of gum traga-
canth, make into small troches, to be
dissolved in the mouth when .cough,s
troublesome. >af faz.F & .a5,
Mo1asses Pie.-Cover a plate with
paste as for pumpkin pie; spread over
this crust 8 tablespoonful of -four, and
a spoonful of butter cut ia small pieces,
and 5 tablespoonful of Orleans or ma
pie sirup. The latter is the best. Bake
in a moderately heated oven. When
nearly done, stir till the ingredients are
well mixed, then let it finish baking.
Il Laundry Secret.-The following
recipe for doing up shirts will be found
of use to many housewives: Take 2
ounces of fine white gum-arabic pow
der; put it into a pitcher and pour on
it a pint or SO of water; and then, hav-
ing covered it up, let it stand all night.
In the morning pour it carefully from
the dregs into a clean bottle, and cork
it and keep it for use. tablespoonful
of gum water stirred into a pint OF
starch made in the usual name will
| give to the lawns, either white or print
ed, a look of newness, when nothing
else a restore them, after they have
been washed. .-. .
Down-east Bread.-1t pints sweet
| and very fresh milk, luke-warm; 3 ta-
blespoonfuls yeast in the milk, a scant
~teaspoonful soda if the yeast is sweet,
a full teaspoonful if it is at all sour, and
a little salt; add -four while it stirs
easily, and a little flour on top at last,
to prevent the cloth from sticking; COW
er and set it in a moderately warm place
to rise over night. 1 pint of milk makes
a large loaf, and ! pint makes a dozen
biscuits. In the morning roll your bis
cults and cut them, then place before the
fire to rise ! hour before baking. Allow
your loaf after it is in the pan to rise
from J hour to l hour, turning it round,
SO that it may rise evenly. This receipt
is equally good for Graham bread.
