usEFUL AND sUeGEsTIEE.

Governor Bloxham, of Florida, re-
ports Thu t one of the most marked IN
dustrial te lures of that State is the ten
dency toward small farms.
The present high prices are con-
vincing proofs that farmers have not
been able to overstock the market Yet.
There is plenty of room for more farm
ers in this country.
To Can Corn: For every eight
quarts of corn cut from the cob, take
one ounce of tartaric acid; cook togeth-
er and can. Last year we put up thirty
well. We have used this recipe for
years.-M Z. Tribune
Fish fritters: Remove the bones
and skin from any cold fish. Make
very fine by pounding in a mortar, add
ing equal proportions of bread crumbs
(not too dry) and hot mashed potatoes.
Stir in half teacupful of cream, two
beaten eggs; season with cayenne pep
per and salt; form into small cakes, and
fry in butter or lard
1t is a startling fact, and one worthy
of serious consideration. that the people
of the United States are clearing off
thirty-five acres of timber for every acre
have reached that point in denuding our
country of its forests where it becomes
the duty of every landowner to plant
trees. Chicago Journal
According to the Germantown Tele-
graph a good remedy for Kidding the
bushes of the currant worm, and one
that has been tested, is s. to wet the
bushes with a watering-pOt, and then
dust them thoroughly with sieved coal-
ashes. Repeat both one or two consec-
utive mornings should it be deemed nee
essary."
Every cook knows how disagree
BILE it is to have the nutmeg or CHINA
mon which is added to cream and
sugar for pudding sauce rise to the top
of the sauce, and when it is served to
have the first spoonful taken out too
highly favored and the rest without
taste. To remedy this mix the nutmeg
or cinnamon with sugar before pouring
on the cream; it will then be gradually
distributed through the sauce. Pour
the cream on a little at time, and the
spice will tend to dissolve.--M 7. Post.
Mr.. Nelson Ritter, who has handled
many thousand dozen eggs in his time,
tells the RurdL New Yorker that the
largest he ever saw measured 81 inches
around one way, u the other, and
weighed 81 ounces. The next was a
trifie smaller. weighing five ounces.
Inside each of these was an ordinary
sized egg, with shell hard and COM
plete. Mr. James j. II. Gregory says
in the same paper that the sugar
pumpkin is q trustworthy cropper,
nearly as fine-grained as the marrow
squash, and very sweet.

The Poison of Tobacco Smoke.

A series of experiments has been re-
Gently conducted by Herr kissing, of
Bremen, with the view of ascertaining
the properties of nicotine and other poi
sonous substances in the smoke of CT
gars. He specifies as strongly poison
Gus constituents carbonic oxide, sulphu-
retted hydrogen, prussia acid, picoline
bases and nicotine. The first three,
however, in such small proportions. and
their volatility is SO great that their
share in the action of tobacco smoke on
the system may be neglected. The pic
oline bases, too, are present in compar-
atively small quantity, so that the poi
sonous character of the smoke may be
almost exclusively attributed to the large
proportion of nicotine present.
Only a small part of the nicotine in
cigar is destroyed by the process of
smoking, and relatively large portion
passes off with the smoke. The proper
ton of nicotine in the smoke depends,
Of course, essentially on the kind of to-
bacco; but the relative amount of nico-
tine which passes from a cigar into
smoke depends chiefly on how far the
cigar has been smoked, as the nicotine
contents of the unsmOked part of a CT
gar is in inverse ratio to the size of
this part, i. e., more nicotine the short
er the part. Evidently, in a burning
cigar, the slowly advancing zone Of
glow drives before it the distillable mat
tiers, so that in the yet unburnt portion
a constant accumulation of these takes
place. 1t would appear that in the case
of cigars that are poor in nicotine, more
of this substance relatively passes into
smoke than in the case Of cigars with
much nicotine; also that nicotine. not
withstanding its high boiling point, has
remarkable volatility. London Times.

sr Of short or long standing. He refers to the
entire Western and Southern country to bear
him testimony TO the truth Of the assertion
that in no case whatever will 1T fail to cure IL
the directions are strictly followed and carried
out. In q great many cases q single dose has
been sufficient for a cure, and whole families
have been cured BY single bottle, with a per-
feet restoration Of the general health. 1t 10,
however, prudent, and in every case more cer-
tain to cure, If it's use IL continued In smaller
doses for 8 week or two after the disease has
been checked, more especially In difficult and
outstanding cases. Usually this medicine
will not require any aid to keep the bowels In
good order. Should the patient, however, re-
quire a eathartic m edicine. after having taken
three or four doses Of the TOniG, single dose

mittee at Washington and testified that while

Five People Burned to Death.

A dispatch from Clinton, No., says the house
of George G. Smith, at Lewis, five miles north
of there burned at o'clock in the morning,
and five Of the kznates persisted, viz: Eliza
beth Smith, aged IL; Rachel, aged 10; Ellen,
aged s; Theodore, aged Is, and the mother,
aged 4S. The fire is supposed to have started
from clothing hanging by the kitchen stove, or
from a coal-oI explosion. Mrs. Smith was
first to awaken, when she aroused her
husband, who made his escape With the
little girl Of neighbor who was staying
there for the night, and one of his own tiaugh-
ters, aged about s. Smith and his daughter
were seriously burned. The house was story
and half, and the family were all sleeping
in the second story. A Mr.. White, who was the
sutton Of Elizabeth Smith, was at the house
until after l o'clock, and thinks the fire caught
in the kitchen from clothing by the stove. Miss
Smith was to have been married in few weeks.
An inquest was held, and verdict rendered in
accordance with the facts. Mr.. Smith was en-
ployed by thaOsaRe Coal and Mining COMPANY.
