A CORRECTION.

Eds. CoLUMBIAN-Dedr .SiJs | noticed in
the Saltwater items Of the 10th inst., that Mrs
Benjamin Pealer, who for many months Law
under the care and treatment physician and
grew worse all the time had discharged her
physician, abandoned drugs, and was now un-
der the ho treatment and careful nursing of
her mother in law, out of danger.
Now the Rev. Scribe has either been risin.
formed not informed at all in regard to this case
or he has wifuily departed from the truth in
the statements he has made Mrs Benjamin
Pealer's physician has not been discharged.
neither has she abandoned the use of drugs, but
is taking them regularly and her physician has
seen her regularly since her first sickness. 1t
is true that great deal of praise is due Mrs.
John Peaer for her care and devotion to this
afflicted one for without this care thousands
have died who nigh. have recovered and her
recovery thus far is in great measure due to the
nursing Of kind friends and the ma ernal care OF
Mira Peqer but as to the balance contained in
that article, it ia utterly false.

would 60 into the house and stay an

turning again to the house and striking

Finally he decided TO send them of, and

ODDS AND ENDS.

/ have been frequently struck myself
by theaamount Of ingenuity and clever
continuance which / have seen displayed
in housekeeping where the income was
small but the most was made Of it. Lit
tie odds and ends that q wasteful cook
would have thrown away, reappeared in
delicate and tempting forms Ne breakfast
dishes or entrees. Joints were not sent
to table cold and u~ngarnished over and
over again, till one was tired Of the sight
of them, but allowed to rest in the larder
. day or two after their first appearance,
and then served mp with such delicious
supplements Of salad and other vegeta-
bles that the obnoxious " cold meat" ac-
quired merits which II had never seemed
to possess before. In far larger and
richer establishments, on the contrary, I
have sometimes been reminded Of the
lady who had . pig killed one Saturday,
and for the whole Of the ensuing week
entertained her guests upon pork alone,
because it saved trouble The Queen.

Put q kettle with the quantity Of cold
water in it which you wish to have of
pudding, put in salt; some like more,
some like less fuse your Judgment about
that). When the water begins to boil,
take the corn meal in one hand and the
pudding stick or spoon in the other. Let
the meal fall gently through between the
thumb and fingers, stirring it in all the
time till it gets az thick az cake when
ready to bake. When of that thickness
boil it five minutes, pour it out into a
CREASED dish not very deep. When
wanted for breakfast cut tin slices about
half an inch thick. Fry in lard q little
NOR than is used for griddle cakes.
Some like it fried or boiled in fat as
doughnuts are, but it is rather too rich.

A CONVENIENT ARTICLE.

One of the handiest things to have
about the house, in case Of sickness, is
an I~ndia-rubber bag holding two quarts,
to be filed with hot water. Heat is ON
essential in most diseases, but is not al
ways convenient Of application. Hot
griddles, bricks, and other thugs are
frequently brought into requisition; but
they are either too hot or too cold. This
rubber bag closes with a tight metal
stopper, and may be applied to any part
Of the body. In cold weather it may be
filed with hot water, and then be carried
in the lap to keep the hands warm while
riding. We would not be without the
article for five times its cost. It is per-
fectly safe, and q not be broken or ex-
ploded.
