two teaspoonfuls of whole black pepper
and the same of allspice. Mode: Gather
the onions when quite dry and ripe. and
with the fingers take off thin outside
skin. With silver knife (steel discolors
them) remove one more skin, when the
onion will look clear. Have ready some
very dry bottles with wide mouths, or
glass jars, and as fast as they are peeled
put them in. Pour over cold vinegar to
cover them, with pepper and allspice in
the above proportions. Tie down with
bladders, and in a fortnight they will
be ready for use. This is most simple
receipt, and very delicious, the onions
being very nice and crisp. If kept
longer than six or eight months, picked
onions are liable to become soft.
SOMEBODY ought to publish household
tract, and advise people to kindle
their fires with gunpowder, instead of
kerosene. 1t would be vastly safer in
deed, for the gunpowder only explodes,
and then is done with and if it blows
out the windows and doors, or takes off
a leg or an arm, or puts out an eye, that
is all there is of it, and people know
what to expect But the kerosene not
only explodes, but takes fire, and its
burning vapor is pretty sure death to
the woman who tries this sort of kind
ling. 1t is very easy thing to tilt
what is left in the lamp or the oil-can
right over the Goals to make blaze when
the fire is slow, but the hospital am
bulance and the coroner's inquest are
pretty sure to follow. The most sicken,
ing of all horrors, being burned alive,
is the natural outcome of this hurrying
up of slow fires by the quick kindling Of
kerosene, but every woman who tries il
ought to know that she would be good

behind the kerosene can in such an ex
