To MAKE CURRAET JELLY The cur
rants should be ripe and fresh picked /;
put them on the fire with only water
enough to prevent burning; let them
stew gently till they turn white strain
them through sieve; to one pint of
juice add apound of sugar; boil it half
an hour, then put spoonful on plate
and set on ice or where it will cool. II
boiled sufficiently it will stiffen in FIVE
minutes. If it does not stiffen, boil
longer and try it every five min
utes. When done, strain through q
very fine sieve, or coarse muslin, into
glass jars. Set them in the sdn two
days, then paste writing paper over
them and cover the paper with the
white of an egg.
Lard requires no other care than to
be kept in dry, cool place. Pack
butter in q clean, scalded iirkin cover
it with strong brine and spread a
cloth all over the top. IT you have a
bit of saltpeter dissolve it with the
brine. Butter comes more easily and
has peculiar hardness and sweetness,
if the cream is scalded and strained
before it is used. The cream should
stand down cellar over night, after be-
ing scalded, that it may get perfectly
cold.
BLACKBERRY CORDIAL. Take the
ripest blackberries, mash them, put
them in linen bag and squeeze out the
juice. To every quart Of juice allow
one pound of beaten loaf sugar. Put
the sugar into large porcelain kettle
and pour the juice on. When it is all
melted set it on the fire and boil to a
thin jelly. When cold add quart of
brandy to every quart of juice and bot
tie. Fit to use at once.
BAKED INDIAN PUDD1Na.-P half a
pint of sweet milk and the same of
water into tin pan or basin, and when
it boils stir in cup OF Indian meal, wet
up with little water and teaspoonful
of salt remove from The fire and add q
pint of cold sweet milk, four beaten
eggs, cup OF sugar and any seasoning
you like stir well bake in deep dish
half or three-quarters of an hour.
Potato p.-Boil two or three
pounds of potatoes, mash them we'll.
add slowly good broth, sufficient for
your tureeH LOU ILLS DOll VOL, ana
then add some spinach, sorrel, little
parsley, lemon, thyme, mint and sage,
all chopped fine. Boil all five minutes;
pepper and salt to taste. Just before
\ taking it off the fire, add two well-beat-
en- eggs.
BLACK. AND. BLUE black and blue
spot is neither pretty nor pleasant, and
there is no reason why any small boy
should be disfgured with one, unless
he likes it as an evidence Of his war like
prppensities. As soon as he comes in
crying, because "Tommy hit him, u
cover the mark with moistened starch,
and it will Immediately disappear.
BLACKBERRY WINE.-Nash the ber-
ries and add one quart of boiling water
to each gallon. Let the mixture stand
twenty -four hours, stirring occasion
ally then strain the measure, adding
two pounds of sugar and one pint oil
good rye whisky to each gallon. Bottle
and cork tight. Fit for use in three
months.
