April I'd. From the time of the shooting
until his death Vanderbilt was unconscious.
Many friends Of the dead man and members
Of his family were present when he passed

friends is that it was the result of mental

Get some thorny switches from the

and form the basket from them by max
ing two or three hoops the size you
wish the basket, aud then work pieces

Take equal parts of rosln and beeswax
and melt together, stirring in vermilion
until it is the color OF coral. Apply the
mixture to the basket with small brush
or dip the basket in until every part is
covered. These are pretty for the CEN

HOME LETTER.

DEAR EDI1REss.-In a late GRAPHIC
Ernesttne makes some sly insinuations
about the poverty of your correspond
ents, or their want Of interest in the
"Home Circle" Now, don't you be.
lieve word any one may say about it.
If We are too poor to buy the pen and
ink, or the paper, we can do as they
did in old times.-char a stick, and We
know our intelligent editress, (ahem,
will know whai We mean and will make
It all right.
As to losing interest in the depart
ment. that IS another mistake. The
opportunities for women to air their
views, have been SO long withheld,
that We still feel diffident about avail
ing ourselves of it, lest it might be said
we abuse our privilege.
When one has told all they know,
it will scarcely bear repetition, but if l
thought "my way" would benefit any
one or help a new beginner, would
gladly give it. There are as many
different minds and tastes as there are
faces. and fear that few would like
my recipes as well as they would those
others might send, and l might be
classed with those who do not know
how to do anything well.
However will tell you how l make
chicken pie. Dress your chicken and
if large, cut each piece in two; put
10 boil with water enough to cover
it. and If a year or two old add pinch
of soda, then boil and skim. When
the meat will loosen from the bone,
have made nice, tender, short-cake
dough. Roll nearly as thin as pie-crust
cut into long strips, and line we'll
buttered dripping-pan being careful not
to let the strips touch each other. Put
in a layer of chicken, some bits of
dough, then another layer of chicken,
piece of butter the size of a walnut,
salt and pepper to taste; turn On the
gravy left in the pot, cover with anoth-
er layer of strips, set il the oven and
brown nicely, and be sure to have
plenty of gravy. For the gravy, take
tablespoonful of flour, rub in butter
enough to make smooth, soft paste;
pour boiling water into it until it is the
right consistency and turn 1t over the
chicken; let 1t all boil together a few
minutes when it will be ready tor the
table. A nice way to serve cold chick
en- is to strip it into shreds, put it into
a pan with little water, and make a
gravy similar to the above. Toast stale
bread, lay it on deep dish and pour
the stew over it, cover closely few
minutes when it is ready for the table.
