TO make orange pudding, peel and
slice three or four oranges, and lay In
budding dish, with one. third cup OF sugar /;
make q custard of one pint of milk, the
yelks Of three eggs, and one spoonful OF
corn starch. and one. third cup of sugar
when cold pour over the oranges beat the
whites Of the three eggs and one-third cup
of pulverized sugar to stiff froth ana

For marsh mallow paste, dissolve
one-half pound of gum arabic in one pint
| of water: strain and add half pound f1ne
sugar and place over the fire, stirring con-
stantly till the syrup is dissolved and all
| is of the consistency of honey; then add
gradually the whites of four eggs, well
beaten; stir the mixture till it becomes
somewhat thin and does not adhere to the
finger; pour all into pan slightly busted
with powdered starch, and when cool d.
vide into small squares. Flavor to the
taste Just before pouring out to cool.
The following recipe for doing up
shirts will be found of use to many house
| wives: Take two ounces OF fine white
gum arabic powder; put it into pitcher
and pour on it a pint or SO of water; ana
then, having covered it up, let it stand all
night. In the morning pour it carefully
from the dregs into clean bottle, and
cork it and keep it for use. A tablespoon.
full of gum water stirred into pint OF
starch, made in the usual manner, will
give to the lawns, either white or printed,
a look of nrwness, when nothing else can
restore them, after they have been washed.

4 An excellent pie crust is made in the
following manner: One cotfee-cup OF
lard, two coffee-cups of flour, one half
coffee cup of very cold water, pinch OF
salt. Use knife to cut the lard through
the flour until fine, then add the water
and mix with the knife until all is lump.
and no flour remains in the bowl. Roll
in large sheet and dust with flour; fold
up, turning in the ends, and repeat the
process twice. At the last rolling cut the
paste into strips the width of the hand
and lay one on top of the other, cutting
from this pieces for the top and bottom.
This will make two large pies For mince
pies, place small bits of well-washed but.
| ter over the sheets of paste, dust well, and
proceed as before. Also glaze them be
fore baking, with equal quantities OF
white of egg and cold water, laid on
! evenly with clean, new brush-an or
binary shaving brush is. the best. Have q
quick oven and place the pie on the bot
tom to bake the lower crust first; if likely
to brown too fast on top, place a sheet
iron pan, with water, on the rack above
until the lower crust is done. The lower
crust should be very thin; upper less than
one-fourth inch thick.-N. Y. Times.
