A Newport correspondent asks how
TO- fry chickens a Ia Baltimore. The
IDEAL chicken for this dish is young and
tender, and unless it is so really these
directions are vain. Put tho frying pan,
and it should be deep one, on the
stove, with large tablespoonful of
lard and one of butter, after cutting up
the chicken in the usual way. When
the fat is hot lay the chicken in sprinkle
pepper and SAT- and flour over II; the
flour should oe busted over it through
. fine sitter; cover the frying pan, and
let the chicken cook slowly but steadily ;
when one side is delicate brown turn
the chicken and sprinkle salt, pepper,
and flour over this side also; if the fat
is absorbed add enough to keep the
chicken from burning. Half to three
quarters of an hour is long enough to
cook the chicken. Make rich gravy
in the pan, brown it we'll. fit is your
pleasure to add peas or mushrooms, put
them into the gravy just before serving.
They are of course to be cooked first.
II you use canned ones heat them be-
fore adding them to the gravy. Pour
the gravy around the chicken on q
platter.-New York Post.

Precautions AGAINST oholsr..

&x0o4Ue100S Against 0h0l0x4s
Cleanliness is one of the precautions;
cleanliness of the person, the house, the
entire premises, the neighborhood. All
decsying substances should he covered
deep with fresh, dry earth, all stagnant
pools should he drained; free use of
copperas water. lime water, dilute
su1phuric acid, carbolic acid, chlor-
ide of lime, one or all, will chem
ically cleanse foul places. Wholesome
food, sufficient exercise, abundant sleep,
should be insisted on. Under-ripe and
over-ripe fruits and vegetables should
be avoided. All strains of body or
mind should be avoided. Fear. worry,
nervous exhaustion, filth, gluttony,
tarvation-all invite cholera. Asereno
mind and sound body repel it and re-
sist it's attacks.

Coed Crop Prospects in Canada.

Good Crop Prospects in Canada.
The most gratifying results are being
received from all parts of Canada with
regard to the crops. One Of the best
harvests ever reaped will, il the wealth
er continues favorable, be safely garn-
cred. The crops will not only be large.
but the quality Of the grain will be
very high. Both fall and spring wheat
promise large yield. The area Of the
former will be smaller than usual, ow-
ing 70 the utter failure of the crop last
year, which discouraged the sowing Of
fall wheat this YER. In many sections,
too, large areas were winter killed and
were plowed up. The area of spring
wheat sown is very large, and fortu-
nstely this crop. also promises we'll. In
eastern Ontario it is said the plants do
not stand very closely, but the heads
are very large and are we'll filed and
the berry is fine. There is danger Of
its rusting in some sections, owing to
hot and yet damp weather. In the west,
where the grain has already been har-
vested in localities, the yield has
been extremely large and the quail
ty very high. The new aour is
Of an exceedingly high character.
The barley crop, which is next
in importance in Canada to- the wheat
crop, will be fair crop as to quantity,
and the grain is plump. If the present
showery weather continues through har-
vesti. will be hard TO save il from being
discolored. The pea crop is all that
could be desired in appearance at the
present time. The only exception to
the general rule of good crop every
where appears to be oats, which do not
promise we'll in midland and eastern
Ontario. Wet weather has interfered
somewhat with the llaying, but Is yet
no complaints have been heard. Il il

struck off, by tho auctioneer's hammer,
to the highest bidder. Divested of the
best claim to venerstion or respectful
memory, they were sold for the sum of
Is cents. Tho question arose, why such
good-fcr-nothing articles of furniture
should be kept, to cumber a
house? When o. chair or bedstead
is broken, and cannot lie repaired,
why is it not burned and got out of the
way, and not kept to gather dust, and
occupy room in dwelling? If any,
thing can he mcnded and made useful,
why of course it il best to save it; but if
it is past redemption, there is no use in
keeping it longer. Old baskets are
neither useful nor ornamental, and the
best use that can be made of them is to
kindle fires. Tin dishes, too, are of no
account when they are rusted SO that
solder cannot stop the leaks, and why
they should DO kept safe is mystery.
Cast-off garments only breed moths in

and are much better in the rag mans

is such thing rs carrying It to excess,
and this gathering up fragments" that
are of no earthly use, is folly. Old
worm eaten boxes and barrels are far
better burned than pre- served, for they

I would not advise to waste anything
that can be made useful in any form
but this evor-increasing pile of rubbish

In bromine, which he has used with un-

He uses the drug dissolved in olive oil,

Of from ten to twenty drops of bromine
to the ounce Of oil, and rubs the mix
