Proverbs of Cooking.

Miss bod g lectures are full of little bits
OF information that might fairly be called
| culinary proverbs. Here are a few of
them:
Tepid water is produced by combining
two-thirds cold and third boiling water.
Old potatoes may be freshened up by
plunging them into cold water before cook
ing them.
In boiling eggs hard put them in boiling
water. 1t will prevent the yolk from col
oring black.
In making any sauce, put the butter and
flour in together and your sauce will new
er be lumpy.
TIE yolk of eggs binds the crust much
better than the whites. Apply it to the
edges with a brush.
Boiled fowl with sauce, over which CRATE
the yolk of eggs, is a magnificent dish for
luncheon.
You must never attempt to boil the
dressing OF clear soup in the stock, for
1t will always discolor the soup.
Whenever you see your sauce bell from
the sides of the pan you may know your
flour or corn starch is done.
A few dried Or preserved cherries, with
stones out, are the very best thing possible
to garnish sweet dishes.
In cooking fowl, to ascertain when it
is done, put a skewer into the breast, and
if the breast is tender the fowl is done.
Good flour is not tested by its color.
White flour may not be the best. The test
of good -four is by the amount of water it
absorbs.
Ihere is greenneSss in onions and DO
tatoes that renders them hard to digest.
For health IS sake put them in warm water
for an hour before cooking.
10 beat the whites of eggs quickly, put
in pinch of salt. The cooler the eggs
the quicker they will froth. Salt cools and
also freshens them.
To make maccaroni tender, put it in
cold water and bring it to boil. 1t will
then be much more tender than if put into
hot water or steWed in milk.
The only kind Of stove with which YOU
can preserve uniform heat is a gas stove:
with it you can simmer a pot for an
hour, or boil it at the same rate for twen-
ty minutes.
Single cream is cream that has stood on
the milk twelve hours. It is best for tea
and coffee. Double cream stands on it's
milk tWenty-four hours, and the cream for
butter frequently stands forty eight hours.
Cream that is to be whipped should not be
butter cream, lest in whipping it change
to butter

and should not wear night caps.
The best beds for children are of hair. or
in winter of hair or cotton.
Young people and others cannot study

MY Little Boy Asleep.


My Little Boy Asleep.
just now missed from the hall and stair
A joyful treble that had grown
AS dear to me as that grave tone
That tells the world my older care
And little footsteps on the floor
We're stayed l laid aside my pen.
Forgot my theme, and listened-then
Stole softly to the library door.
No Sigh! no sound! Ia moments freak
OF fancy thrilled my pulses through
"If-no" and yet that fancy drew
a fathers blood from hand and cheek.
And then-I found him. There he lay,
Surprised by sleep, caught in the act.
The rosy vandal who had sacked
His little town and thought it play
The shattered vase. the broken jar;
A match still smouldering on the floor;
The inskseaud's purple pool of gore;
The chessmen scattered near and far;
Strewn leaves of albums lightly pressed
This wicked Baby of the Woods"
In fact of half the household goods
This son and heir was seized-possessed,
Yet all In vain. for Sleep had caught
The hand thatreached. the feet that strayed
And fallen into that ambuscade
The victor was himself o'erwrought.
What though torn leaves and tattered book
Still testified his deep disgrace!
Istooped and kissed the inky face,
With its demure and calm outlook
Then back stole, and half beguiled
My guilt, in trust that when my sleep
Should come. there might be one who'd keer
An equal mercy for His child.

She is Dead.

Last Saturday night, Mr.. Mac. Demuth
OF this city, who wrote an account of the
doings OF Joseph Gray, some four months
ago, received telegram from Kansas City,
from Gray. stating that his Oldest daugh-
ter was dying. and asked Mr.. Demuth to
see his daughter, who resides in this city,
and request her to come to Kansas City.
Though the telegram was received at about
nine o'clock at night, it was at once deliv-
cred 20 the young girl, who lives in the
extreme suburbs OF the city. She could no..
afford the expense of trip aud besides this,
she was afraid to go to so large a city alone,
and trust herself again in the power of her
father. 1t was feared that the telegram
might be trick to get her away from Sc
dalia. The matter was sified to the bottom
IN the last week through correspondence
with newspaper men in Kansas City. For
fear that an injustice might be done Gray,
the matter was kept quiet. Day before
yesterday information was received that
Gray's daughter had really died, and that
the telegram was all right. When 4 maj,
gets bad name it is very hard to trust
him. Gray is doing better now, ii seems

Written For the Sunday Morning Bazoo.
Do THE YEARS MAKE Us OLD?

Do the years make us old, wonder,
Or the SORROWS that haunt the days,
The gloom of the midnight shrouding
The gold OF the sunsets rays?
Are the sad good-byes token,
Or the kisses we fondly press
On the lips where the seal OF silence
Has left its stern impress?
Are the cares the heart bears daily
No test of the march OF age,
The credits to grief and anguish,
No mar on life's white page?
Are the wrongs, and hates, and trials,
The bitter and endless pain
OF finding our idols broken
These wear Oh the heart and ban.
These weigh far more in the balance,
Far more than the passing years.
Age counts rot alone by its cycles,
But alas. by its me- cd of tears.

NEARLY DROWNED.
A Brave Act by Captain Chase.

Yesterday, when the General Bartlett was
off Little Chebeague landing, two men were
seen struggling in the waves. A yacht passed
by the drowning men before the steamer could
get to them but made no effort at a rescue. As
soon as the steamer came abreast of the men
she was stopped and Captain Chase jumped
overheard with rope in his hand. By this
time one of the men named Joseph True sank
beneath the surface holding with death grip
to the coat Of the other man, Charles Thomas
whose strength was fast failing. Captain
Chase tied the rope around both men and they
were hauled aboard. Thomas was soon him
self again, but True was rolled for half an hour
before he came to. Thomas used to be fore
man for A. f. Cox & Co., and True is shoe
maker employed by the firm. The men were
left at the Waldo House, Little Chebeague,
where they were taken good care Of Great
praise is due Captain Chase whose prompt ac-
ton, without doubt saved both mems lives.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
A Woman Run Over by a Car.

Friday morning Mrs. w. j. Mcdonald, who
resides near the foot of Green street, got under
freight car of the Portland and Rochester
Railroad Company, standing on the track, on
the Dump, to collect pailful o. tan. While
thus engaged, SO the officials state the car
moved and the first thing the train hands saw
was the woman creeping out from under the
wheels. She was taken up and 1t was evident
she was badly hurt, The officials further
state that the woman appeared to be very re-
luctant to have 1t known that she was hurt
and even wanted to try and walk into the
house.
DR.. Getchell, the family physician, was
called and found two or three toes OF one foot
badly crushed, and the ankle bone OF the other
foot broken and the foot itself considerably
mashed. The toes on the one foot had to be
taken off, but the doctor is In hopes he will
save the other foot, although it is very doubt
full. Mrs. Mcdonald told the doctor she had
been in the habit of going out of her back door
and creeping under the cars standing on the
track, in order to reach the other side OF the
Dump. Not only has this been constant
practice of hers but also of her neighbors On
this occasion the engineer attached locomo-
tive to the train while she was under the car
and started ahead naturally enough ignorant
of the woman's presence.
