CORN was the first vegetable canned in
Portland, Me-, in 1854, the canning of
tomatoes begun about the same time in
Boston. The canning of fruits began about
ten years later, and of meats about 1872.
The canning of soups of various kinds
pea soup, terrapln, mock turtle, tomato,
beef and chicken-appears to have origi-
mated in Boston and during the war. The
canned goods business forms about ten
per cent. of the trade of the average re-
tail dealer.
Hearth and Home gives the following
remedy for toOthache: Melt white wax or
spermacetti, two parts, and when melted
add carbOlic acid crystals, two parts; stir
well till dissolved. While still liquid i'm
merse thin layers of carbolized absorbent
cotton wool ard allow them to dry. When
required for use small piece may be
shipped off and slightly warmed, when it
can be inserted INTO the hollow of the
tooth, where it will solidify. The ease
produced by this simple method is really
very great. Another remedy, which fire.
quently gives relief and is recommended
by physician, is equal parts of chloro-
form and spirits Of camphor.

rind of four oranges and one-fOurth of a
pound of loaf sugar. Stir into this half

and then dissolved; then strain and leave
till cold. Whisk when cold; and, when
ever the cream GEMS likely to set, add
by degrees the juice of the oranges with
that of one lemon. Whisk the cream till
it is a white and light frOth, and begin
ming to set. Put the cream into a quart
mould previously rinsed with cold water.
The cream can be turned out in four or
five hours. Served with orange syrup if
liked.

smooth, solid tomatoes, slice off the part
where the stem joins the fruit, take out
the centre with the seeds and fill the cavi-
ties with a mixture made as follows: Put

a bunch of parsley and little thyme Gall
of the above Ingredients to be minced very
fne). Season the mixture with salt, pep
per and pinch of cayenne; stir over the
