Miscellaneous Recipes.

A delicate pudding sauce is made of
one egg beaten with one cup of sugar.
This may be done sometime before din
ner when it is time to serve the sauce
pour over the sugar and egg half n cup
full of boiling water flavor with lemon
or rose.
Stuffing for baked fish should be
made Of line bread crumbs, highly sea-
soned with pepper, salt, and sage. One
or two raw eggs beaten in with il also
gives flavor to it. A little butter is need
ed if the fish is not too oily.
Spiced beef, which is delicious cold
and sliced thin, is easily prepared. Choose
d piece with less fat than you would wish
to have in q roast boil this until tender
in water in which you have put salt, pep
per, celery seed, and clover; the amount
TO depend on your taste.
Oatmeal pancakes are good for break
fast, and may occasionally itake the place
OF the oatmeal and milk so universally
served ut that meal. Make them with
sour milk, with soda to sweetcn it. The
batter should be stiff. The oatmeal, un-
less il Is ground very fine, should be
soaked in water all night.
Lettuce. boiled, make good side-dish.
OOOh Anu herVc ub you no bplnucn. n
small piece of bacon boiled with il is n
good seasoning. When the lettuce has
grown little rank and is not quite crisp
enough TO serve On salad, it may be pre-
pared in this way, and make an agreeable
and wholesome dish.
Very few cooks boil rice for curry pro-
perly, yet il is worry easy. A saucepan OF
boiling water should 10 in readiness, and
the rico should be dropped into it md lot
boil as rapidly ms possible until nearly
dry then the saucepan should be re-
moved 10 the side of the fire, and the
rice, ii left to ovaporate, will be found to
be perfectly cooked, each grain separate.
This is the plan pursued by indian
cooks.

Hall the people OF the world live al.
most exclusively on rice. 1t contains ~
per cent of nutrimcnt, while roNst beef
contains but 2G.
There are countries where the almost
exclusive diet OF tho masses is beans.
These contain 81 per cent Of nutri-
ment.
The best and cheapest food for the
dense populations of Asiatic countries.
therefore, is rice: and since, from the
general poverty of the people, varieties
of food are out of the question, boun-
teous Nature has given them most freely
that kind which is among the most nutri-
tious OF all foods. With the rest of the
world, rice is more OF a side dish, and is
served most frequently in the form of n
pudding.
We venture to affirm that when the cost,
the percentage of nutriment and the
wholeSomeness of beans are considered,
there is not in the world single article
of food that can compare with them.
There is no other vegetable food that an
swers 30 well as substitute for meats.
While they have 80 much to recommend
them in other respects, they haveno rival
in point of economy. A quart of beans,
costing ten cents, will furnish a family of
five persons with food for a day.
Much of the value of beans as food de-
ponds on the manner of cooking. 1t
would be difficult to cook them too much.
They should be first boiled until soft,
and then put in baking-dish and baked
until they are brown. A little salt pork
or butter, but not enough to make them
taste greasy, should be put in the baking
pan and cooked with them. II beans are
not thoroughly cooked, they are difficult
Of digestion still, there is not one hotel
or restaurant in thousand that serves
them sufficiently cooked, and, as rule,
it is not well to call for them in such
places but at home, when prepared un-
der the supervision of n good cook, they
make dish that is wholesome and pala.

A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

ably with indianapolis Shippers.
Most of the grain men and lumber dealers at

against the road, to at once present them with
tho proper proof of the business of their
claims, and state that they will he

bash people manifest a disposition to
deal honorabiy with Indianapolis shippers, it is
10 more than right that they in return should
show e0Rcihatory spirit and that differences be

reason that the same friendly feeling should not

The Situation Improving-Orders Increas-

The Indianapolis Iron-rail Rolling Mill Com
pany has now orders sufficient to keep them
busy some sixty days, and there is an increased
inquiry regards prices and when rails can be
furnished. The steel-rail company have made
no attempt to start up, ana have about decided
to erect suitable buildings and construct two
oonverters, that they may be able to manufac-
ture their iron blooms. 1t will cost 5000, 900 to

pleted the indianapolis mill could manufacture
rails at a lower figure than any mill in the coun-
try, having introduced all improved machinery
IN the construction of their new mill. The New
AlbaDyliron-rail rolling mill is running full time
and fnll-handed; has orders TO keep them busy
several weeks Eastern papers report that
there are indications of o better demand for
steel rails. although it is not likely that prices
will show much improvement. Summer and
fall deliveries command some W hat higher prices,
say S38. 30 to $50, and only small lots can be
had at those figures. Winter and spring deliv-
cries could probably be had al something below
$3S, although in view of the large amounts
likely to be required. the feeling smong sellers
appears to be in favor of holding to 1888 AS a firm
quotation, with the usual concessions tosbuyers
of very large lots. Sales during the past ten
days have been some that important. and it is
understood that four of the leading mills in
PENNSYLVANIA have engagements TO deliver over
100000 tons within the next four months. This,
I'm addition TO the current demand for small lots
will insure full activity during the remaner of
the year.
