Cure For Burns.

"A venerable patient, retired foun-
dryman, tells US that during his appren
ticehood to ship builder of Phladel-
phia he became acquainted with never
failing remedy for burns and scalds, and
that in his subsequent foundry life he
saw innumerable such injuries relieved
of pain and healed as if by magic by
powdered charcoal. The softer il is the
better, and that from the pine wood is
the best. tbs to be thickly sprinkled
over the burned or scalded surface as
soon as possible, and renewed as 1t be-
comes moist or drops off. The same pa
tient states that in the shipyard and in
his foundry fir balsam proved most
soothing and rapidly curative dressing
for abrasions and cuts. The hurts heal
with marvellous expedition, and sup
puration, erysipelas, &C., are always
prevented, he says. The balsam should
be spread thickly over the wound.
No doubt the disciples of antiseptic
surgery would attribute the good results
of this dressing to the disinfectant pow
er of the balsam, but the secret of its
efficacy lies, no doubt, in its exclusion
of the atmosphere from the wound.
Nature endeavors to keep out the air
from wounds by means of film of
lymph or pus or scab, and meddlesome
man thwarts nature by frequently
cleansing ;, the hurt by water, or,
worse still, soap and water. The balsam
protects the sore from the air and water
and nature, unobstructed, does her heal
ing work rapidly and well.

HOUSE, FARM AND GARDEN.
Farmers Families.

Much has been said and written on
this subject. Poets have loved 1t and al
most every artist has his cozy little
farmhouse nestled among the trees, COW
cred with climbing.roses, and surround
ed by the necessary outbuildings"
Many time have we forgotten while
gazing at such picture, or reading one
of these amorous effusions, that we
were born in the country, and that we
lived In farmhouse and followed its
tiresome monotony from morning till
night, varying from laundry to dairy,
feeding the poultry, rising before the
lark was astir to milk the patient
kline" "shod like the mountaineer,"
and so on with but little variation, save
on those days on which there was house
cleaning or some extra job" to be
done.
Then when evening came and we sat
down, thoroughly wearied, what an un-
utterable longing came over us for some
thing more. If land the tantalizing
picture would present itself there was
paper to be picked up after this was ov-
er, or some interesting and instructive
volume-we were weary, very weary,
and the very sight of pile of patching
made both fingers and eyes achieve
were disinclined to touch it.
And just here is one of the great
wants of our modern farmhouse. There
will be found, If the case be investiga-
ted, that in by for the largest portion of
them there is but the one weekly paper,
and in very many none at all. In these
houses the library may easily be counted.
And here men and women in embryo
spend those years that will so much in
fiuence their future lives. Let this be-
remedied. Let the fathers supply their
children with those grand educators, the
public press gather around their fire
sides the classic author, the historian,
and mingle with them the best poets
and some well-assorted novels, and thus
inaugurate a new era in our farmhouses,
which will make home more attractive
to the sons than the corner grocery,
and the wives and daughters will have
something to amuse and rest them after
the cares of the day.

Water For The Cook.

In cooking almost all kinds of meat
soft water should be used when posi-

often best, and for that reason salt Is
thrown into the water to make it hard
when cooking. Some vegetables are
spoiled 10y cooking in soft water, because
it will not dissolve or make them so
tender that all the flavor passes into the
water, leaving the vegetables insipid aud
worthless, destroying all the firmness of
texture necessary to retain the flavor
and juices. Salt Is also added 70 retain
the color, else that would be lost in the
water, and the vegetable becomeyellow

made hard by the addition ofsalt, house
keepers will do wisely il they provide
themselves constantly with soft water
