No household in the country should ever be
without a supply of flaxseed, both whole and
ground; for there is scarcely any thing
which can be used with greater success by
the amateur physician. At least half of the
ailments of little children may be traced to
cold, or to some disturbance of the digestive
organs; and in either of these cases a flaxseed-
poultice is a sovereign remedy.
Pour boiling water on the ground 1axsced,
stirring briskly at the same time, till it is the
consistence of mush; then put it into a flan-
mel bag previously prepared. apply 1t as hot
as it can be borne, and cover with several
folds of flannel. Let it remain until it begins
to cool, when it may be replaced by an
other. In cases of cold on the chest, hoarse
ness and cough, it often acts like a
charm, and also in attacks Of diarrhda, and
pain in the bowels. have seen n little child
screaming in agony, relieved in n few mo-
ments by this safe household remedy, falling
into a quiet sleep, and awakening the next
morning quite well. Its great recommends
ton is, that it can do no harm, even if it
should fail to do good, which is more than
can be said of many nostrums confidently
prescribed for family use.
Flaxseed tea, if properly made, is excellent
for colds and coughs, and is pleasant enough
to necessitate no coaxing of the little mes.
Put two t~ablespoonfuls of the seed into a
quart of cold water, set it over the fire, and,
when it begins to boil, allow it two minutes
by the clock Then strain, add the Juice of
a lemon, and white sugar to taste. Keep it
on the back of the stove where it will be
warm, and give a ~wineglnssful at short in

boards, basins, dressing cases and mirrors
are stationary, and the kitchen is so well
furnished with closets and ~cupboards that
when Bridget is dismissed for the night the
room is a most desirable sitting apartment.
1t serves also for a dining-room, as a three
panel screen of cretonne, canton flannel or a
good quality of wall paper shuts or the stove
and all the pots, kettles, and carving boards
used in preparing the meal.
Perhaps the handsomest piece of furniture
in the parlor is the folding bed, with its
broad front of plate glass, and, with the as
sistance Of a handsome big screen the head
of the house, or indeed, any member of the
family who might happen to occupy the bed
would think nothing of screening himself and
retiring for the night, while a group of mer-
rymakers, not fifteen feet distant, were dis
cussing the relative merits of an Anderson
and a Mather, or dilating on some new
opera or publication. All sensitiveness about
using the fancy screens of the day has
passed, and madame is not the least discon-
certed as she make her toilet for tho COM
pany waiting for her on the other side.
Those days of limited accommodation have
returned, and although there may always be
a suggestion of something on the other
side, society is rapidly getting used to it. 1t
is a piece of exceeding kindness and fore
thought that prompts hotel men to supply
their bridal chambers with a large folding
screen for the convenience and comfort of
the newly-wedded bride

The oyster is eaten in a variety of styles.
He will be eaten to-day fried, broiled, stewed,
steamed, scnlloped, and raw. Some people
in Chicago eat them picked. No matter.
Chicago is young yet and will learn after a
while. So wealthy and enterprising a city
can not remain forever uncivilized. The best
way to eat oysters is the old-fashioned Mary
land stew. Shuck your oysters, and on pain
of death, let not a drop of water or milk
touch them. Let them repose for a few mo-
ments in their own liquid, while you cut up a
very small quantity OF raw, new bacon, with
a shred here and there of lean with it. About
an ounce of bacon to n quart of oysters.
Ham is not the best, neitheri is middling good,
new shoulder is the article. Put the bacon
in a frying-pan and heat rapidly over a Wig
orously burning fire. When the bacon is
done to a crisp pour in the oysters Stew for
two minutes and a half or three, no longer.
Pepper to suit taste while stewing. II the
oysters are good saltwater bivalves, they
need no salt. Then pour out and cat; thank
God you live in II and where the art of cook
ing oysters properly is not wholly lost. If
you eat oysters cooked in this style you will
never eat them in any other if you can
help il.

beyond their own ken, are, as a matter of
course. beyond the ken of others. A COM
%monplace, matter-of- fact girl, a sensible girl,
an intelligent grim fact, any thing reason
able-does not suit them. TIL reason is they
understand her, and what such men. under
stand loses to them that great charm of nov
city. But let a girl-woman, laughing one
moment, crying the next, very industrious
for an instant, forgetting all about the in
dustry in another instant; loving her dog,
hating her dog; starting TO sing and ending
by crying; kind and loving in the morning,
cruel and hateful in the afternoon-a being
that is always a novelty to them-these are
the ones they love Beings hat can never
understand them, that can never help them,
and that always make their life a great bur-
den of joy and misery, cad yet these are the
beings they marry. Occasionally, when one
of them accidentally marries a matter-of-
fact woman, he is surprised at his content
and comfort, and SO are his colleagues, but
they do not learn the lesson. They go on in
the same old rut, marrying the butterflies.
These are the men who should marry cooks.

How the Kitchen May he Improved.

The question is, what shall be done to the
kitchen to make it bright and attractive, and
the suggestions given are intended particu-
larly for country kitchens, which seem TO be
very often the thoroughfare, if not the rest
ing-place for the family. Vines, OF course,
would be in the way in the summer, and at
that time they are not needed so much, us the

brown, dead-looking stalks, try to have some
thing green and fresh in the kitchen. Train
a vine, If only a sweet-potato vine, on one Of
the windows, and besides, having saved all
the empty ans from canned fruit or veget-
ables, paint a couple of them red; have two
holes bored in each near the top. through
which to rung the strings, by which they are
TO be suspended over the window. In one

so easy to grow from slips, and which will
soon run on the sides, making it a thing Of
beauty; and in the other, which must be
nearly full of water, lay al old sponge or
piece Of white cotton, over which sprinkle
fax seeds thickly, keeping the cotton moist
where they are sown. In two or three weeks
these will sprout, and the cotton will be COW

broken backs close TO the seats also the lower
part OF the legs, to make them n convenient

size OF the seat, of some old ticking and other
material, and stuff it with fine shavings or
slivered husks, aud after mailing it securely

This gentleman is now on his way to make tour of Europe for the pur- pose of studying commercial and manufac- turing systems with view to their introduc- tion in China. He will also visit this coun- try on the same mission, and will spend much time here, examining especially American manufactures and engineering. He will probably reach this country in July next. A gentleman who has frequently met him at home is quoted as saying that Ton Kin Sin is afable and courteous in his manner, simple in his tastes, and, for Chinaman, unusually averse to noise and display. He has much of the innate egotism of his race, but is too well bred to show it. He has quickness of thought and speech which is rare for one of his race, and logical mode of argument and keenness in asking questions which are anything but Chinese.

The Bouquet Reform.


 We hear with much satisfaction of a re- form already decided upon an% about to be introduced in the dancing circles of New York. It appears that it has of late years been the custom for gentlemen attending balls and proposing to dance the so called German" with particular young lady to invite that young lady beforehand by letter, and, on her accepting, to forward her bou- quet with 8 view to the strangely named dance-apparently the cotill0n. The bou- quets forwarded on these occasions have at last become so costly that nambers of dan cing young men find themseIves obliged to choose between giving up the German" and accepting ruin. One hundred dollars is said to be no uncommon price for such a bouquet as a self-respecting young man would not be ashamed to send to an intended partner in the "German D and the tax on dancing the "German" was to many such a severe one that number of charitably dis posed ladies have formed themselves into a society with view to its repeal. The mem- bers of this association on accepting an invi- tation to dance the "German" make it an express condition that no bouquet shall be sent. Generosity and prudence seem in this matter to go hand in hand for good many gentlemen were beginning to renounce the German" as too expensive
