On this the proper "bills" were then
and there compared, and his claim
passed undisputed. - Chicago EUening

PICS FEET FRIED.-Pig'sf feet are fire.
quently used for jelly, instead of calves
feet. They are very good for this pur-
pose, but a large number is required
(frOm eight to ten or twelve) to make
the jelly sufficiently firm. After they
have been boiled for jelly, extract the
bones, and put the meat into a deep
dish; cover it with some good vinegar
seasoned with sugar and a little
cayenne. Then cover the dish, and set
it away for the night. Next morning,
take out the meat, and having drained
it well from the vinegar, put it into a
frying-pan, in which some lard has just
come to a boil, and fry it for a break
fast dish.

Bearers in CdtyorntG.-The Stockton
(Cal,) Independent publishes the follow
ing: "As the tules of this vicinity
abound in beavers, numbers of hunters
and trappers have made an excellent
living in capturing them for their pelts.
The latter are worth $3.50 each, and an
industrious trapper can catch from 80
to 80 a month. In the equable climate
of California the time of year seems to
have no especial effect on the excellence
of the beaver fur, 1t being equally good
in summer and winter. The trapper
can, therefore, pursue his a~vocation
uninterruptedly the year through.
With the beaver he can catch and the
other game he can send to market, an
industrious man can make 800 a month
and live as his own master. The trap
per's outfit for the San joaquin tules is
a peculiar one. Two hunters usually
join together in the outfit of an ark, or
floating house, with which they paddle
out through the innumerable sloughs
that intersect the painless jungle of
tules. The ark affords one small room
or cabin, provided with sleeping hunks,
and furnished with a stove and comfort,
always having a shelter, while its COM
pact shape and size allows it to float in
the smallest stream, thus bringing the
hunter and his home in the very midst
Of his game"

VEAL FRITTERs.-Take some thin
slices Of cold roast veal, and trim them
in a circular form. Beat them with a
rolling-pin, to make them very tender,
and season them with a little salt and
pepper, and some powdered nutmeg.
Also some grated fresh yellow rind Of
lemon peel. Make a very light batter,
of eggs, milk, and flour; in the proper
ton of four well-beaten eggs to a pint
of milk, and a large half pint of sifted
flour; the eggs beaten first, and then
stirred gradually into the milk in turn
with the flour. Have ready a frying
pan nearly full of boiling lard. Drop
into it two large %spoonfuls of the
batter. Then put in a slice of the veal,
and cover it with two more large spoon
fuls of the batter. AS the fritters are
fried, take them up with a perforated
skinner, and drain them.

Notification and Wdter.-Professor j.
M. Merrick, writing to the american
Chemist, says: ain Hofman's Manual,
and doubtless in many other chemis-
tries, directions are given for exhibiting
the decomposition of water by sodium,
the hydrogen gas being collected in a
tall, narrow jar by pushing pellets of
sodium under its mouth with a wire
gauze spoon, etc. In both cases | used
very small bits of sodium. Having
blown an expensive glass tube to frag-
ments in my W laboratory by this
process, and having, in the presence Of
a large class, blown into minute atoms,
with a noise like thunder, a large tube
and porcelain cistern, covering myself
with modification and water, and cut
ting gashes in my hand, l venture to
suggest that possibly there is a risk In
this experiment, as laid down In the
books"
You are right Professor. There is
certainly a possibility Of risk"
indeed, we are willing to go further,
and say that there are absolute dangers.
Lucky that your eyes escaped injury.
Such experiments should be banished
from the lecture room.

WoMAN.-There is no telling what zoe
would do without woman. We rather
suspect that if it were not for woman
there would not be much of "uOe" left
to trouble the other inmates in this
fighting, ''wrangling," sinful world.
Mark Twain, the witty and the waggish,
knows what she is. He tells us that
woman sews on our buttons; she ropes
us in at the church fairs; she contides
in us; she tells us about the little pri-
vate affairs of the neighbors; she gives
us good advice and plenty Of it; she
gives us a piece of her mind sometimes,
and sometimes all of it; she darns u
socks; but, darn it! she is too proud to
darn our pantaloons. Well, nOtwith-
standing this, she is a "brick,"

WATCH TIL CHILDREN's FEET.-The
following advice from the New York
Euening Post Is very important. Let
every mother remember it: "Life-long
discomfort and sudden death often come
to children through the inattention or
carelessness of the parents. A child
should never be allowed TO 90 to sleep
with cold feet; the thing to be last at
tended to is to see that the feet are dry
and warm. Neglect of this has often
resulted in a dangerous attack of Group,
diphtheria or a fatal sore throat. AL
ways on coming from school, on enter
ing the house from a visit or errand in
rainy, muddy or thawy weather, the
child should remove its shoes, and the
mother should herself ascertain whether
the stockings are the least damp. If
they are, they should be taken of, the
ieet held before the fire and rubbed
with the hands till perfectly dry, and
another pair of stockings and another
pair of shoes put on. The reserve shoes
and stockings should be kept where
they are good and dry, so as to be ready
for use on a minutes notice."

Hydrioddte Of Morphtne.-This new
compound, which permits of being used
In medicine, has been prepared by
Earnst Schmidt both by dissolving NOR.
phine In hydriodic acid and by the &C.
ton Of acetate of morphine on iodide of
potassium. The product in both cases
was identical. Both crystalline in long
needles, with silky luster and grouped
in rosettes. The composition is repre-
sented by the formula G HNO II |, and
Oh o. When heated to the temperature
Of boiling water, II loses the two MOLE
cul6s of water, but RECEIVERS them on
exposure to the air. 1t Is but slightly
soluble in cold water, more so in hot
water. The hydrobromate Of morphine
Is very similar to the above, %crystallizes
like 1t, and the crystals also contain
two molecules of water.

The plantation negroes were engaged
in pitching coppers. 1t was discovered
that after a while several cOppers were
missing, though NJ one had been de-
tected in picking up any but his own
pennies. One old negro, whose cOppers
had mysteriously disappeared, at length
becoming satisfied in his mind that
there was foul play going on, and OBJ
serving that one of the ~barefooted party
had a peculiar way every now and then
of jerking his foot up to his hand, called
a pause in the game, saying: "De
gemman wifi de tar on his heel will
please to withdraw" The suspected in
dividual retiring on this polite invita-
ton, the game went IN without the
mysterious disappearance of any more
COppers.

MANY new dresses are supplemented
across the back by porous plasters and
next to vest front a mustard poultice Is
generally worn. Young ladies alternate,
during the spring months, between a
necklace for street wear and a flannel
rag for the house. Diamonds are worn
in the ears with much effect abroad, but
a lock of cotton and a little roast onion
is the usual adornment at home. Pearl
powder is applied to the shoulders for
full dress, but ~camphorated oil and
hartshOrn liniment are considered very
pretty also by the sufferers. Silk stock
ings, with cOlored crochet work are the
things for lOw-laced shoes, but pals Of
hot mustard water and hot bricks are
worn on tue feet with pleasing effect.
