TO Take Dents Out of Furn ,tura,

If the dent is not too deep it may be
removed in the following manner:-Wet
the part with warm water; then take five
or six folds of brown paper, we'll soaked,
and lay upon the denied place, and upon
this hold hot fiat iron till the moisture
is evapora'ed. Should this not entirely
remove the dent repeat the process once
or twice. 1t will require but one or two
applications to raise the denied upot lev
ell with the surface. Or if the dent be
very small, merely soak it with warm
water and apply red hot poker very
near the surface; keep it constantly wet
and in few minutes the dent will dis
appear. For slight bruises and scratches
equal parts of turpentine and sweet oil
will be found excellent. Mix we'll and
apply with a cloth, rubbing hard.

student of the university of Morgantown

and was overcome by the foul air. A man

Advices from great number of points
in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia in
dicates that the late storm was the most
severe for years. The obstruction to railroad
property is especially heavy. Washouts of
culverts and bridges caused railroad travel on
many roads to cease entirely. The storm
seems to have expended its greatest force in
the interior and eastern parts Of the State of
Ohio, western Pennsylvania, and northern
West Virginia.

HOUSE, FARM. GARDEN.

Butte'mazk Pies.-One cup sugar, two
cups butlermilk, two eggs. two table,
spoontuls flour, two tablespoonful but
ter; flavor with lemon. This makes two
pies.
Apple Meringue.-Fill dish one
fourth full Of stewed apple, cover with
the beaten whites of five eggs. mixed
with i've tablespoonful of powdered
sugar.
Savory 2ico--Take some plain boiled
rice, put into saucepan with lump of
butter. add as much tomato sauce as the
rice Will take up, and plenty Of grated
Parmesan cheese, mix we'll, and keep stir
ring on the fire till hot. SIEVE piled on
the dish.
In many households there are often
whites OF eggs to spare which are usually
thrown away. If they are put in a lam
pot and placed in saucepan with boil
ing water in, and boiled for quarter of
an hour, they are most useful when cold
to be cut in strips for salad.
Queen Cake-Work a pound each of
good pulverzed sugar, not granu]ated, and
good sweet butter, not much saited, to-
gether until the mixture is almost like
cream. Then take one pound of flour,
eight eggs, about quarter Of grated
nutmeg and two tablespoonful of wine.
Beat one cog at time in the butter and
sugar until all are in. and the flour about
one fourth at time until the whole is in.
After beating all we'll together, let the
batter remain short time in a cool
place. Grease some white paper with
butter and line your pans. Use rather
shallow pans and fill them little more
than half-tull and ba''e in quick oven,
but not hot enough to burn; then while
warm ice it nicely.

Notes for the Farm Yard.

The grazing cattle should be inspected
daily and the fences also receive attention,
lest they be broken down by the rapid
~ growing and highly-fed stock. Those
intended for winter slaughter will need
extra food unless the pastures are very
rich and good. The dairy will need par
ticular attention to keep every thing sweet
and good, especially in cheese making; a
little saltpetre will help to keep the curd
sweet. The aftermath will be ready in
most cases and will do much to keep up
the yield unless the weather is unusually
dry. Flies are still more troublesome
this month. and the cattle Of all ages will
eagerly take advantage Of all shade Civ
en- them. ltneed hardly be said that the
water supply should be looked after and
drink carried to all the stock by hand. if
the ponds fail. Horses are now less
pushed, and will do well on less or no
corn, but only cut forage besides pasture.
The less pasture and the more cut food
such as lucerne, clover, or tares-the more
economical and the more manure: it can
not be too we'll understood that soiling is
comparatively as advantageous for morse
as fcr horned stock. Washing and dip
ping sneep will be necessary this month,
even more than 'ast, and the same time
precautions are needed for those with
"a nbs. Fold the early fields, where the
folding plan is followed, taking the fields
IN rotation as required for seeding. Swine
have plenty of food yet, but dairy wash
should be looked after against the tine
when there will be less.

To Get Rid Of Rats Without Poison.

A German paper gives the following
method OF doing this: Having first
for some days placed pieces of cheese in a
part of the premises, so as to induce the
rats to come in great numbers to their
wonted feeding place. piece of cheese
is fixed on hook about foot above the
floor. One rat leaps at this, and of course
remains suspended. Hereat all the other
rats take sudden fright, ard at once quit
the house in body" Perhaps Yankee
rats are not so easily frightened.

A writer mentions the fact that "it is
the general custom not to use napkins at
luncheon in England" If John Bull
thinks he is ahead Of Uncle Sam in such
etiquette, he is sadly mistaken. Tramps
in this country use neither napkins nor
forks at either breakfast, dinner or
luncheon. But we don't deem it worth
Dragging about.

John Jackson, OF Illinois, wealthy
man, is also the very meanest man on
record, to date. He refused to send all
to his own sister who was stricken with
yellow fever in New Orleans. He was
next notified OF her death, and he refused
to pay the funeral expenses. The girl
was buried in paupers grave. He'll is
altogether too comfortable a place for
John Jackson. But when the devil gets
him we hope he will hold him over the
Goals and let him fricassee slowly.

it is true, that many dwellinge once the
homes of poets have been public houses
at one time or other. Burns's native cot
tage was a house of this description; the
house in whice Moore was borr was
whiskey shop; and Shelley's house at
Great NARROW was beer shop. Even
Coleridge's residence at Neither Stowey
became an ordinary beer house. A house
in which James Montgomery lived for
forty years at Sheffield was beer shop:
and the birthplace OF K;rke White is now
used as house for retailing Intoxicating
beverages.
The Boston Post has been publishing the
opinions of the leading business men of
that city in regard to the Fall, which
were of very hopeful cha. acter. It APP
pears that there opinions are shared IN by
the merchants of New York. The latter
have their expectations upon the large
crops increased foreign trade, the settle
mentof public lands, ard a general OPP
inion that the period of depression is
nearly ended. A large trade in the old
sense Of the term is not expected, but an
improvement over any former season
since 1873 is looked forward to, and a
healthy revival in all departments Of
trade in the near future. We have been
working toward improvement in various
ways. Large crops are assured, and re-
liable estimates give a total yield OF
wheat 40,0O0,OOO bushels in excess Of
astyear's production, though that was
one of the best years on record. Foreign
trade, too, has been rapidly working in
our favor. Tue Western trade is coming
forward promptly and in a good volume.
The Southern trade will be DESTROYED by
the yellow fever, but later i, may he even
more brisk on account of it. The shaky
houses have hurried up to get the benefit
OF the Bankrupt act, ana now business
ought to be steadier and frmer than we
have seen it before in months.
