AMMONIA. is a great
labor-saving article. A small guam
tity i'll warm water takes every spot
off of paint, removes every particle
of grease from cooking utensils,
cleans and disinfects the drain pipe,
cleanses delicate laces without rub
bling, cleans silver and brushes, and
is an excellent fertilizer for plants.
Like other good things, it must be
carefully used, plainly labeled and
kept out of the reach of little fingers.
GRAHAM BREAD.-Four quarts of
unbolted wheat, a teacupful of good
yeast; half a cup of molasses, and
one tablespoonful, of salt, mixed with
warm water enough to make, a stiff
dough; let it rise six or eight hours !;
wet your hands in cold water to put
it into the pans; let it rise in the
pans an hour, or until it rises an
inch; bake about two hours. 1t
should be very well baked.
CHICKEN SALAD. Boil chickens,
turkey, or veal remove all the skin
and gristle, and chop it very fine.
| Cut heads of lettuce into quarters,
and lay it into water with piece of
ice. If made with celery, it should
be slivered very fine, and laid into
water with ice to crisp. Make the
dressing by taking the yolks of two
OF three eggs, a tablespoonful of
mixed mustard, little Cayenne pep
per, and salt, and stir this together
with large fork, on a fat dish; turn
in gently, stirring all the time one
way, half bottle of sweet oil ; add

tiers; dry the lettuce in napkin,
and lay it neatly around the meat

over the lettuce. 1t may be served
the same as the above, or cut the Gel

FOR THE FAMILY SCRAP
BOOK,

All stains should be removed from
white goods before they are wet or
put into the wash.
To remove ink-stains from linen,
put the stained part in pure melted
tallow; then wash out the tallow, and
the ink will disappear.
The best and easiest way to clean
white paint is to use enough spirits
of ammonia to soften the water, and
ordinary hard soap and rub well.
A little powder resin sprinkled ON
to cut will prevent inflammation ];
put soft cloth around the finger and
wet it with water frequently.
One tablespoonful of bromo-chlo-
raium to eight of soft water makes
an excellent deodorizer, and will pu-
rify the sick-room of any offensive
smells.
To remove claret stains, spread a
little salt over the stain while fresh !;
if the stain is an old one, wet it and
rub on the spot pulverized chalk and
salt, and lay it in the sun. Repeat
this process, keeping it damp, until
| it is all out.
To destroy bed-bugs, moths and
other vermin, make a strong solution
of alum and hot water, and apply
with paint brush to the furniture OF
cracks in the wall; or if moths have
lodged in the borders of carpets, wet
the edges thoroughly.
To wash a carpet, spread it where
you can use a brush, and scrub as
you would a floor. Scrape one peck
Of Irish potatoes into two pals OF
water and let them stand over night
when ready to use add more water
and two ounces of beef gall. Wher
dry brush hard with broom.
To clean black silk in a simple
way brush the silk thoroughly and
wipe with a cloth, then stretch fiat
on table and sponge with hot coffee
that has been strained through mus
lin. on the side intended to show
when it is partially dry, iron on the
wrong side. This will restore the
brilliancy of the silk and give it {
thickened appearance.

NONE TO MANY


"There are many calls for charity
these days., said professed disci-
pie of Jesus Christ to me, recently.
s'None too many" was the ready re-
Spouse. The man had been called
upon to contribute to one object and
another of late, more frequently
than was agreeable to his feelings.
And yet, not all the objects, nor half
of them, for which his aid was solic-
tied were objects of charity. People
often make mistake in this regard.
1t is not charity when a man contrib
utes to build a church where his fam
lily are to worship, OF to keep it in
good repair, OF to meet its necessary
expenses. Money given to pay the
salary of the minister is no more
charity than money given to pay the
wages of ones own hired man.
But suppose that there are many
calls for charity nowadays, there are
none too many. 1t is a good thing
to have them, and many of them.
too; and better thing to respond
to them, and to give, again and
again, and to keep on giving to give
a portion, to seven, and also to eight,
and even to more than that. Of
course, the more of such calls there
are, the less can a person give to
each and he must exercise Judgment
in the matter, and give as may seem
best, according to his ability. He
will feel all the better for it. 1t will
do him good. His heart will be en-
larged. The more he gives, the
more will he love to give, and the
more will God be pleased; for we
are assured, that she loveth the
cheerful giver.' He will not be vex-
ed because He is called upon to give.
He will not complain because the
calls for charity are so many. What
if God, from whom cometh down ev-
cry good and perfect gift, and on
whom we are dependant for all our
| blessings, the least and the greatest,
were to feel in this manner? What if
He were to get out of patience with
us, because of our oft-repeated calls
upon Him for aid? What, then,
would become of us poor and needy
creatures? Bnt, praise to the ever
blessed God, He never wearies of
one calling upon HIM. Nor does He
ever weary of giving. 1t is His ma
ture to give, and His happiness large
ly consists in His benevolence. He
would not be the infinitely glorious
and happy Being that He is, were
He less benevolent. Let us, accord
ing to our measure, initiate Him in
this regard and, according to our
measure, we, too shall be happy.

HENRY CLAY's IDEA OF RELIGION
To Miss Martineau he once said II

the churches call religion. | wish |
did. But do know of it's effects.
In the neighborhood of my home
were two very estimable families
who, in years past. fell into what is
known as a kentucky Feud, which
means that as often as any of the
embittered party met at a fair or pub
lie meeting, there was probability
that the fray would begin, and it was
as likely to kill the innocent as those
in the strife. The neighbors did ev-
erything in their power for concilia-
ton. | did everything in my power
with the rest; but all was in vain.
The killing went on until one of the
denominations, known here as the
Baptist, held what they call bias
ket-meeting, and had what they call
revival and these belligerent fam
lilies were converted, as they say, and
they have lived on the best of terms
ever since, a blessing to the whole
community. I tell you, Miss Mar
tineau, that whatever will change q
Kentucky feud into loving fellowship
so soon and effectively is Of God.

MOODY AND SANKEY IN
PARIS,

The visit of the evangelists, Messrs.
Moody and Sankey, at Paris, has ex-
cited great interest in that city, and
will be followed, it is hoped, with a
large blessing. A letter from Paris,
dated October 25th, to the London
Record, says:
sOur American visitors babe us
farewell the day before yesterday,
after having spent amongst us fort
night that will leave, by the grace of
God, lasting and blessed recollec-
tons. The first week the meetings
were exclusively attended by the En-
glish-speaking residents of Paris.
The second week was for the French,
and there is no exaggeration in say
ing it has been a glorious time. Ev-
cry night, especially towards the
end of the week, the Oratoire
was full to overlooking, and MI.
Moody, splendidly interpreted by
Pastor Theodore Monod, won the at
tention and the hearts of thousands.
When Mr.. Sankey, after having sung
a hymn, invited the assembly to join
in the chorus, an immense wave OF
praise and joyful song, French and
English combined, rolled through the
vast edifice, producing impressions
of the most intense character. 1t is
contemplated to follow up the work
in Paris by missions through the
church in the Moody STYLE

At minister's meeting some years
ago, the subject of discussion was
prayer. A missionary from Ceylon,
who was present, gave the following
simple illustration of faith in prayer.
He said that on a certain occasion,
he requested his wife to do a small
favor for him. On meeting her a
few hours afterward he thanked her
for having done it. And on her ask
ing how he knew that she had done
it, he said that he took 1t for granted.
He knew that she would. He had
confidence in her readiness to comply
with his request.
Should not Christians have like
confidence in the readiness of God to
grant their requests? There is GER
tainly abundant reason why they
should. His promises and assurances
encourage great confidence. The
Bible abounds with them, of which
the following is an example ;
task, and it shall be given you ;
seek, and We shall find; knock, and
it shall be opened unto you. For
every one that asketh, receiyeth and
he that seeketh, findeth and to him
that knocketh, it shall be opened"
