IMPROVE THE KITCHENS.

The question is, what shall be
done to the kitchen to make it
bright and attractive, and the sug'
gestions given are intended partic'
ularly for country kitchens, which
seem to be very often the thorough
fare, if not the resting 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, as the kitchen doors are fre-
quently draped with honey-suckles
or morning-glories on the outside,
as well as the kitchen windows.
But in the winter, when it is cold
and cheerless outside, and the grace
ful vines have turned into brown,
dead-looking stalks, try to have
something 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 cans from canned
fruit or vegetables, paint couple
of them red; have two holes bored
in each near the top, through which
to run the strings, by which they
are to be suspended over the win
dow. In one plant, Wandering
Jew," or a Tradescantia, 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 an old sponge or piece of white
cotton, over which sprinkle flax
seeds thickly, keeping the cotton
moist where they are sown. In
two Or three weeks these will
sprout, and the cotton will be cov-
cred with a beautiful green mossy
looking growth.
Save the old kitchen chairs cut
off the broken backs close to the
seats, also the lower part Of the
legs, to make them a convenient or
comfortable height. Then make a
bag the size of the seat, Of some old
ticking or other material, and stuff
it with fine shaVings or sliyered
husks, and after mailing it securely
on the seats, cover with bright
cretunne or chiutz. The former

five cents a yard, and would be for.

KEEPING EGGs FRESH. I saw q very
good arrangement for keeping eggs
at q friends house a short time
since, and it was so simple and
practicable that it ought to be
generally known. 1t was set of
four shelves, two feet long and
eight inches wide, with a space of
five inches between them, made of
hard wood planed, and three rows
of round holes, bored with an inch
augur on each shelf, twelve in each
row. One shelf would hold three
dozen eggs. The eggs were set in
with the small end down, so that
the yolk could not settle against
the shell. The lady said she had
kept eggs six months in this man,
ner perfectly sweet; also that the
free circulation of air around them
was very important and there was
no danger of cracking the shell.

The Supreme Court has recently decided
q very important case to insurance men,
The Superintendent of Insurance, Colonel

his refusal on a decision rendered by Judge;

alton organized under the statutes OF
Ohio can not assess its member in excess
of one-fifth of one per cent. sand can not

State of New York there is no statute COW
ering the above points, and the Su~perintend-
ent claimed that there must be a similar
statute in the State where the Association
is formed to that governing Associations in
Ohio, in order to put the Associations do
ing business in this State on a similar
footing. An application for a writ of man
