Tie Art; of Conversation.

The art of conversing can be learned
only by practice. To converse, one
must have some one to converse with.
"One may relate himself to a statue" as
Lord Bacon suggests, but that, though it
maybe Use the heart, lis not conversation.
To converse well, one must have an ap-
preciative and provoking companion,
using that epithet in its best sense.
"When visitors come," said miss, not
long since, eve children get acquainted
with mama; she doesn't talk to us as she
does to Them" Doubtless she would lie
glad to talk to her children as she does
to the visitors if her children could call
her out, and provoke her to do her best
in conversation. But it is waste Of good
material to parade treasures before eyes
that cannot appreciate them and do not
value them. awe are commanded not
to least pearls before swine or give that
which is holy to the dogs" tits because
Of the common sense underlying this
command that one is forbidden in $50
ciety" to talk of that which interests
him most. The collegian must never re-
fer to books, the theologian to theology,
the artist 70 his art, the musician to his
music; that is talking shop" and talk
ing shop" is forbidden. Society talk
is airy, made up of nothings, but ele-
CANT nothings, under which one may be
sage, poet, philosopher, what not, SO he
conceals his real self.

Tomato Catsup-TOmatO Sauce.


The basis of tomato catsup, or ketchup,
is the pulp Of ripe tomatoes. Many de-
fer making catsup until late in the sea-
son, when the COO; nights cause the fruit
to ripen slowly, and it may be it is gath
cred hurriedly for fear Of frost. The
late fruit does not yield SO rich a pulp as
that gathered in it's prime The fruit
should have all green portions cut out.
and be stewed gently until thoroughly
cooked. The pulp is then to he separa-
ted from the skins by rubbing through a
wire sieve, so fine as to retain the seeds.
The liquor thus obtained is to be evapo-
rated to thick pulp over slow fire,
and should be stirred to prevent scorch-
ing. The degree of evaporati N will de-
pend upon how Thick it is desired to
have the catsup. We prefer to make
it so that it will just pour
freely from. the bottle. We OBJ
serve no regular rule in favoring. Use
spice, and mace, bruised and tied in a
cloth, and boiled in the pulp; add a
small quantity of powdered cayenne.
Some add the spices ground fine, di-
rectly. to the pulp. a Glove of garlic,
bruised and tied in a cloth, to be boiled
with the spices, imparts delicious
flavor. Some evaporate the pulp to a
greater thickness than is needed,
and then thin with vinegar or with
| wine.
An excellent and useful tomato sauce
may be mace by preparing the pulp, and
putting it in small bottles while hot, cork
ing securely and sealing. If desired,
the sauce may be sailed before bottling,
but this is not essential. TO add to soups,
stews, sauces, and made dishes, a sauce
thus prepared is an excellent substitute
for the fresh fruit. It should be put in
small bottles, containing as much as will
be wanted at once, as it will not keep
long after neutrality-suspicious. Agricul-

Canning Vegetables.

Such vegetables as sweet corn, string
beans, tomatoes, and green peas are
canned in the following manner: The
vegetables are first partly cooked for
about ten minutes, and then put hot in
to the cans without any water; the cans
are covered, and the tops soldered down
at once, a small hole being left or made
in the centre; the cans are then put into
a boiler and boiled for half an hour,
when they are taken out, wiped dry and
a drop of solder is put on the hole,
which is carefully sealed so as to be air.
tight; the cans are then ready to be put
away in a cool, dry place. Corn needs
previous preparation as follows: The
ears are boiled for five minutes to set the
juice; the corn is then cut from them
with sharp knife, and the germs
scraped from the cobs; the corn is then
put into the cans and treated as above.
1t requires all hours or more boiling, or
it will not keep we'll. Vegetables so pre-.
pared need no cooking, but only warm
ing for use.

Honey is used with advantage in asth-

For persons who lead sedentary life,

little ones will rejoice in the relief af-

in detailing the uses of honey as a food
and medicine. 10 you who are bee
keepers and constant users of the
delicious nectar there is no question as to
all these merits.
What seems necessary for us, as pro-
motors of agriculture, is to spread abroad
throughout the community the knowl-
edge of honey, and thereby create
increased demand for it; not only would
we be promoting our indivual and
joint interests, but we would be bepe-
factors to the public. Innumerable bless
ings will flow from it's general introduction
and it therefore beconesa duty to spread
this knowledge.

Honey as a Medicine,


At late meeting of the Madison, Wis.
Bee-keepers association, the secretary,
DR.. Vance, read a paper, from which we
quote:
1t is a common expression that honey
is a luxury, having nothing of the life
giving principles. This is an error
Honey is food in one Of it's most concen-
trated forms. True, it does not add as
much to the growth of muscle as does
beef: steak; but it does impart other
properties no less necessary to health
and vigorous physical and intellectual
action. It gives warmth to the system,
arouses nervous energy, and gives v]gor
to all the vital functions. To the laborer,
it gives strength; to the business man,
mental force. Its affects are not like or
binary stimulants, such as spirits, ETC.,
but it produces healthy action, the re-
suits of which are pleasing and perma-
nent-a sweet disposition and bright in
tellect. What more need he said to
recommend honey as an article of diet?
Does this not account for the uniform
sweet disposition of beekeepers and the
unalloyed happines of their good wives?
This fact will ere long become known to
the public, and all who have cOmpar,.
ions who are dyspeptic and irascable as
hyenas will be healthy and sweet-nat-
ured.
A few years ago Rev. L. L. Langstroth
related his experience with honey on
lung disease in which it was used with
great benefit; prolonging the life of his
wife. many years. Its action upon the
respiratory organs is quite marked, par
ticularly upon the bronchial tubes. For
coughs it lisa remedy, and in Group it has
often afforded great relief. j. ~3:S3 -.
An Austrian, Karl Cater, says many
persons affected with various species OF
consumption, thank the use Of honey for
their entire restoration to health, or for
the mitigation of their often painful con-
| dition of body and mind.
Honey is also an excellent remedy for
the occasional inactivity of the abdomi.

Faith.


Often you will bear doctor say: "Well,
now if you will only have faith in my treat
ment will cure you" Stuff and nom
sense! The idea is absurd, and yet it is a
fixed notion with many, especially those of
the Quack fraternity who frighten the young
into the use of their nostrums and then cx-
c,,se their failure to cure from want of
faith on the part of their victim. The in
ventor of DR.. Guysott's Yellow Dock and
Sarsaparilla, an old and esteemed physician,
used to a espeoa S1 in
to "only just try it." Faith or no faith, its
effect as blood purifier and true strengthen
er of the liver, kidneys and nervous system
is most wonderful and is proven in every III
stance where used. The p,oprietors offer a
thousand dollars reward for any case of i'm
pure blood, weakness; ill-health, dyspepsia,
indigestion, nervous debility, urinary weak
ness, liver complaint, or any chronic female
aillnent that this remedy does not benefit.

Hints for the Household.

It is said that white hats which have pe-
come soiled and sunburned can be cleaned
with powdered sulphur and cold water,
which is easier than the bleaching pro-
cess. Make paste of sulphur and cold
water; wet the hat or bonnet and cover
it with the paste until you do not see
the straw; rub hard and hang the hat
to dry. When dry brush the sulphur off
with brush until the straw is perfectly
white.
To keep sweet corn fresh for winter,
cook as for table, cut off of the cob, place
in crooks, using Il teacup ofsalt for two
gallons Of corn sprinkled in through it,
make a weak brine to cover the corn,
put a cloth over the corn and a plate
with weight on it to keep it under the
brine the same as you would for pickles;
when wanted, take out the day before :,
and freshen with plenty of water.
Keep a cup of powdered borax on
your washstand; it will do wonders in
the way of softening the skin. If you
have been working in the garden, or do
ing things about the house which have
tended to make your hands rough,
when you wash them dip your fingers
in the borax, and rub your hands we'll
with it.
Veal loaf furnishes a good relish for
supper. Take two pounds of veal and
chop it very fine, about as if for mince-
meat: two coffee cups of fine bread
crumbs, two eggs we'll beaten, tea
spoonful of salt with black pepper mixed
with it, a little siited sage, or any other
leaf you choose, and a lump Of butter to
suit your taste. Beat these all together in
the chopping- bow, and put in ali earthen
pudding-dish, we'll buttered; press it
clown very hard. Bake in hotovcn for
an hour. Let it get perfectly cold before
you attempt to cut it; then it will be pos
sible to cut it in thin slices.
