Smoked Mutton Hams.

Choose fat Young mutton Rub it thor
oughly with a mixture in the proportion
of one part sugar to two of salt and half
an ounce OF saltpetrc, and the same guam
tity of black pepper to pound of the
mixture. Place the meat in a covered
vessel and turn and beat it twice a day tor
three consecutive days. The fourth day
wipe the scum from the meat. wash it
with strong vinegar. and again rub it with
the mixture. The day after beat and turn
il; repeat these alternate operations for
ten days, being careful to remove the
scum before each rubbing. and to turn the
meat every time. After this it must be
smoked tor ten DAYS. To be used the
same as smoked vension or dried beet.
To pickle without smoking them. rub
the hams with mixture of sugar. pepper
and saltpetre. allowing four ounces of
the former. and an ounce each of
the two latter to every twelve
pounds. and pound and n quarter of
salt to the quantity. After the meat is
thoroughly rubbed. cover it with the salt
and turn and beat it every day rs before
directed At tho end of week and a
teacupful of vinegar to the brine and con-
tinue the turning and beating. After three
weeks take it from the brine, wash with
fair water. then with strong vinegar. and
hang up in n cool cellar for week or less
according TO the weather. It should be
soaked in cold water about an hour be-
fore boiling.
An old cook book SAYS that hams pro-
iected by wrapping. can be kept packed
in n barrel full of charcoal broken pretty
small. and even claims that tainted meat
can be restored. However doubtful that
las, statement may be. it seems quite pos.
sible that good meat could be SO kept for
u few days in warm weather. There is
also method OF preserving meat
by the use of salicylic acid. but hav-
ing no experience in either of these ways

Little things make up the sum of all
human happiness or unhappiness. Be-
cause person has little to bestow there
is no reason why he should neglect that
little. The widows mite was esteemed
of greater value by the Master than tn
munifcent donations of the wealthy.
There are many things that appear trivial
in themselves that accomplish more good
than can be wrought by all the gold of
the Sierras, and to neglect these is to
commit as great fault as did the I'M
faithful servant who buried his talent in
the earth
Much praise is given to the millionaire
who gives few thousands to a benevo-
lent object, while the earnest endeavors
of the humble few in furtherance of the
same purpose are passed over as unworthy
of remark. But in the day of final reck-
oning there will be judge who cannot
be blinded by the glamor Of wealth or
station, and will measure out the rewards
according to the intent rather than &C
cording to the amount of the benefac-
tions. The world would be much better
if people would but take advantage of
the means of doing good that are thrown
in their way, small though they may ap-
pear to be- There is nothing lost and
much may be gained by improving all
such opportunities.
