THE HOUSEHOLD.

Light, graceful forms in brass and bronEt
have supplanted many of the heavy, cum
bersome g fxtu es.
New potatoes cooked in this way make ;
dainty breakfast dish Put large lump o.
butter in frying pan, stir in with it as il
softens tablespoonful OF -four, small
onion chopped fine, little parsley, and,
lastly. small cup of sweet cream. Stir
until these are well mixed, then put in the
cold boiled potatoes, cut in small pieces.
Let all boil together. Serve hot.
A nice way to cook piece Of the round
of beef ia to line saucepan with thin
slices of bacon, and then lay the beef in.
| Cover it with water. Cover the saucepan
and let the meat cook slowly for several
hours, or until it is perfectly tender. As
the water boils away add more, SO that
plenty will be left for gravy. Season
highly with salt, pepper, celery salt or
| curry, and some small onions sliced.
a good way to dispose Of the small, hard
apples is to wash them, take out the stem
and blossom, and put in a kettle with
hardly water enough TO cover them. If
very hard, cook while before putting in
sugar when done pour the juice, when
boiled down, over them and you hsve
something far superior to baked apples. II
wanted to be very nice. cook a few at a
time, and use plenty of sugsr so that the
syrup will almost be jelly.
a delicious desert Is of ice.cream and
lemon.ice mixed that is, they are served
together in this way: the cream is frozen
| in a small mold and 90 is the iemon-ice,
!
on platter together just before bringing
to the table, and the appearance is the
same as if they were frozen in the same
mold; indeed, this may be done if one is
inclined to take the trouble and time, for
the one in the lower part of the mold must
be quite firm before the other can be
poured in.
For burns ard scalds nothing is more
soothing than the white of an egg, which
may be poured over the wound. 1t is
softer as varnish for burn than COLO
dion, and, being always at hand, can be
applied immediately. It is also more cool
ing than the sweet oil and cotton which
was formerly supposed to be the surest ap.
plication to allay the smarting pain. 1t is
the contact with the air which gives the
extreme discomfort experienced from tie
ordinary accident of this kind, and any
thing that excludes the air and prevents
Inflammation is the thing to be at once ap.
piled.
The egg is considered one of the best of
remedies for dysentery. Beaten up slightly,
with or without sugar, and swallowed at a
gulp, it tends, by its emollient qualities, to
lessen the Inflammation of the stomach and
intestines, and, by forming transient coat
ing on these organs, to enable nature to re-
sumo her heslthful sway over diseased
body. Two, or at most three, eggs per
day would be all that is required in ordin
ary cases; and since egg is not merely med
icine, but food as well, the lighter the diet
otherwise, and the quieter the patient is
kept, the more certain and rapid is the re.
covery.

two cups of sugar, scant cup of butter,
and work together as cream, then add

and one tablespoonful of corn.starch, one

vor, which may be lemon and vanilla.

one of butter, four cups of -four and one
tablespoonful of corn starch, the whites of
eight eggs, one cup of sour milk, teaspoon.
full of soda, and flavor with almond or
peach. Put in the baking. pan alternately

Boston Transcript.
Home love is the best love. The love
that you were born to is the sweetest you
will ever have on earth. You, who are so
anxious to escape from the home nest,
pause moment aud remember this is 30.
Ii is right that the hour should come when
you, in your turn, should become a wife
and mother and give the best love TO 9TH
ers; but that will be just it. Nobody
not lover, not husbsnd-will ever be so
tender or so true as your mother or your
father. Never again, after strangers have
broken the beautiful bond, will there be
anything so sweet as the little circle of
mother, father and children, where you
were cherished, protected and kept from
harm. YoH may not know it now, but
you will know it some day. Whomsoever
you may marry, true and good though he
may be, after the love days are over and
the honey moon has waned, gives you only
what you deserve of love and sympathy
and usually much less never more. You
must watch and be wary, lest you lose
that love which came in through the eyes
because the one who looked thought you
beautiful. But those who bore you, who
loved you when you were that dreadful
little object, a small baby, and thought
you exquisitely beautiful and wonderfully
brilliant-they do not care for faces that
are fair and forms that are more graceful
than yours. You are their very own, and
so better TO them always than others.
