Jelly Cakc.--2 eggs, l cup sugar, cup
sweet cream, cup flour teaspoonful
soda, teaspoonful cream-tartar.
10 Cook Pork.-Freshen a 4 dozen
slices Of salt pork; take egg and thick.
en- with flour until the batter Is about as
thick as for pancakes; dip the slices OF
pork in the batter and fry.
GingerDredd.-3 cups molasses. IA
cups boiling water, cup butter, tn
blespoonful of saleratus; flour enough
TO roll out; roll thin cut in squares and
bake in shallow pan.
Veal Hdsh.--Chop veal fine, add a
lump of butter as large as a walnut, salt
and pepper 10 your taste, cup of cream
or good milk, dust in flour enough to
thicken the gravy sufficiently, and pour
hot over some nicely toasted and but
tered bread. An excellent breakfas.
dish.
Pork Sparerib Joint it nicely before
roasting, and crack the ribs across.
Take care not TO have the fire too hot.
1t should be basted with a little butter
and -four, and sprinkled with fine sage.
1t takes from two TO three hours to cook,
as pork should never be underdone. Ap-
ple-sauce, mashed potatoes and greens
are proper accomplishments.
10 Hull Corn.-Cover your corn with
I've and let II boil till the hulls will slip
easily then pour 1t into large pan Of
water and rub thoroughly with the
hands; pour off and add more water till
it Is clear Of bulls; then put on and boil
till the grains burst open. Place in Jars
in cool place. This is nice to eat with
milk, but still better fried in pork gravy.
Yorkshire Pudding.-l pint Of -four,
, eggs, IA pints milk (perfectly sweet),
pinch of salt, II teaspoonfuls baking
powder; sift the -four and powder to-
gether, add the eggs beaten with the
milk, stir quickly into rather thinner
batter than for griddle-cakes, pour it in
TO dripping-pan plentifully spread
with fresh cold beef drippings, bake in
a hot oven 20 minutes, serve with roast
beef.
Po'afo Pufs.--Take any kind of cold
roast meat Tor ham), chop fine and
season with salt, pepper and herbs, If
liked. Boil and mash some potatoes
and make them into a paste with or ,
eggs, according to the quantity required;
roll 1t with a dust Of flour, cut ii round
with saucer, put some of the seasoned
meat on one half and fold it over like
puff, nick or pinch it round the edges,
and fry 1t in boiling lard, light brown.
A very nice way to use up any kind of
cold meat.

yoke of oxen, their horns decorated

wound or painted with gay colors, and

and pulleys, and set up firmly in the

hands and danced around Il. The
whole day was given up to merriment,
every one dressed in holiday clothes.
doors and windows were adorned with
green boughs and lowers, the bells rang,
professions Of people in grotesque
dresses were arranged, and the famous
Morris dancers performed.
In this dance the people assumed GER
