Recipe for Sauer.Kraut.

AS the season has come when almost
every family-and we may say with
considerable certainty every farmer s
family-puts up for the winter tub OF
sauer-kraut, we offer again our recipe
for preparing this excellent and whole
some dish. We regard our way the best
so far as our knowledge goes, and no one
we are sure will be disappointed who
adopts it. 1t is this: I'm the first place
let your stand, holding from half a bar
rel to barrel, be thoroughly scalded
out; the cutter, the tub, and the stamp
er also well scalded. Take of all the
outer leaves of the cabbages, halve
them and remove the heart, then pro-
iced with the cutting. Lay some clean
leaves at the bottom of the stand, sprin-
kle with handful of salt, fill in half a
bushel of cut cabbage, stamp gently
until the Juice just makes it appearance,
then add another handful of salt and so
on until the stand is full. Cover over
with cabbage leaves, place on top clean
board fitting the space pretty well and
on the top of that a stone weighing
twelve or fifteen pounds. Stand away
in cool place, and when hard freezing
comes on move to the cellar. It will be
ready for use in from four to six weeks.
The cabbage should be cut tolerably
coarse. The Savoy variety makes the
best article, bnt it is only half as pro-
ductive as the Drumhead and Flat
Dutch" We will just add that there
is no dish more wholesome than we'll
made sauer-kraut: but it should always
be boiled. and well boiled, with piece
of picked pork or corned beef.-Ger-

doing a thriving business in little town
suddenly refused to pay his debts. The
commercial travellers who sold him
goods have paid him frequent visits in

long legged representative of a London

sided over by the erratic merchant and
presented a statement amounting to

she had never been in the street by her

cOmpanied her. On her constitutionals
the mother mounted guard on one side,
the father, imposing as the beadle of the
Madeleine, on the other. The girls in

left nor to the ri ht, to walk straight,
to turn her head away or drop her eye
lids when stranger glanced at her; to

by her parents friends. From time to
time she enjoyed a morning stroll
through the Jardin DIES Plantes Or

NV friend the wOOdcOck has an exz
cellent wife, and an excellent mOthe1
that is, an excellent mother to his
children. He may have had an exceis
lent mother himself; probably he did,
for of all birds the woodcock mother IS
the kindest and most affectiOnste to
her little ones. But what l wish ia
state, though I'll confess that, like
Brother Boreas, I'm little long
winded this time, is that the offspring
of my friend Woodcock actually are
carried about BY their mother when
they are too young to escape from dam
ger unaided. She does not carry them
by her bill (no, even the cat-bird wou'd
not attempt that), but she closes her
little feet upon them, and so holds
them rs safely as your mother holds
the baby in her careful arms.
In numbers of cases. hunters have
seen the grcat-eyed birds rise and fly
away heavily and low, seemingly hold
ing something between their feet. Mr..
c. F. Holder, one of the st. Nicholas
writers, tells me that a Western sports
man recently had curiosity enough to
follow such bird. and a good chase
she led him. through bayfield,, over
brambles, bushes and stones. but he
finally gained upon her, and saw that
in her feet she carried tiny dOwny
woodcock, that seemed not the least
alarmed by such a strange mode Of
travelling. The old bird carried it sew
eral hundred yards, before alighting
with it, and then quickly disappeared
in the tall. thick grass.
My little Mis-. Woodcock is the proud
est mother l ever knew. She thinks her
children are perfection. To me they
seem to have rather large mouths, but
she scouts the idea of that being any
thing against their beauty. TO her
way of thinking a large mouth
gives an openness of expression to the
young that is simply charming. All,
Woodcock is a happy fellow!- ST.
Nicholas.

Save the Old Paper.

Never throw away old paper. If you
have no wish to sell it, use it in the house.
Some housekeepers prefer it i, cloth for
cleaning many articles of furniture. For
instance, a volume written by lady says:
''After stove has been biackened it can
be kept looking very we'll for long time
by rubbing it with paper every morning.
Rubbing with paper is much nicer way
of keeping a tea-kettle, coffee-pot and
teapot bright and clean than the old
way of washing them in suds. Rubbing
with paper is also the best way of polish
ing knives, tinware and spoons: they
shine like new silver. For polishing
mirrors, windows, lamp-chimneys. ETC.,
paper is better than dry cloth. Preserves
and pickles keep much better if brown
paper, instead of cloth. is tied over the
jar. Canned fruit is not SO apt to mold
i piece of writing paper, cut to tit
the can. is laid directly on the fruit.
Paper is much better to put under car
pet than straw. It is warmer, thinner,
hndmakes less noise when one walks
over it. Cincinnati Enquirer.
