FOR THE HOUSEHOLD.
New York Post


A good cough medicine is made by
boiling two ounces Of flax-seed in one
quart of water; add rock candy to
sweeten it to your taste. After strain,
ing, add also the juice of several lem
ons. This should be taken at night,
and if possible it should be hot when
taken.
AS a garnish for roast spare rib, OF
for pork chops, cut some tart apples
in Fights; drop them, after pceling,
into boiling lard when crisp on tie
outside. remove them with skinner,
drain them well, and send TO the table
hot.
A necessity liz every household is a
little closet or cabinet hung out of
reach Of children, were the mother
can keep the bottles containing rene
dies for burns, bruises etc. Much suf-
ferIng, if not life itself, is saved by
knowing where to go at once for
medicine.
An excellent and not common rule
for making drawn butter sauce is to
rub q piece of butter the size Of an egg
with a cUpful of flour, season with
pepper and salt, and very little nut
meg; mix this with water enough to
make it smooth like paste. Let this
boil for fifteen minutes, then add lit
tie more butter, stirring the mixture
SO that the butter viii be thoroughly
mixed with it. add lemon Juice be-
fore sending to the table.

A Dangerous Experiment in Mesmer
ism.
Pail Mall Gazette

A new and dangerous development
of mesmerism was displayed the other
day at Paris TO an admiring and
sympathizing public by a well-known
mesmerist, who, at the same time, is
a lion keeper in certain menagerie.
A beautiful young girl, Oh whom the
spiritualist generally practices, was
brought into cage Of lions, and,
after being thrown into a cataleptic
sleep, was submitted to the most
frightful Ordeals. In one Of these the
head and arm of the girl were put
into the mouth of a lion which had
previously been Infatuated by lashes
from its masters whip. But the APP
parently dead body did not excite
the ANNALS appetite. At the end of
the scene the girl was released and
went smiling away, while the mes
merist earned rich laurels.

ASweet. Scented Industry.

Some idea of the magnitude of the
business of raising sweet-scented
flowers for their perfume alone may
be gathered from the fact that Europe
and British India consume arout 150,-
900 gallons of handkerchief perfumes
yearly; that the English revenue
from eau de cologne is $40 900 an
nually. There is one great perfume
distillery at Cannes, in France, which
uses yearly 100, 900 pounds of acacia
flowers; 140, 900 pounds of rare flower
leaves, $4,000 pounds of jessamine
blossoms, 10000 pounds of tube-rose
blossoms, aud an immense quantity
of other material.

No Chance to RectIfy Mistakes
Ex-Governor Seymour

When [ was young man there
lived in our neighborhood farmer
who was usually reported to be a very
liberal man, and uncommonIy upright
in his dealings. When he had any of
the produce Of his farm to dispose of,
he made it an invariable rule to give
good measure = rather more than
would be required of him. One of his
friends, observing him frequently do
ing so, questioned him as to why he
did it. He told him he gave too much
and said it was to his disadvantage.
Now, mark the answer of this excel
lent man: "God has permitted me
but one journey through the world,
and when [ am, gone I cannot return
to rectify mistakes" The old farmers
mistakes were of the sort he did not
want to rectify.

Miss Flood JiltS Fortune Hunting
Lord.
Chicago Tribune

Miss Jennie Flood, the California
heiress, who ! reported by London
paper to be engaged to a British peer,
is in this city, 3 q emphatically denies
the report. til understood, too, that
Miss Flood denies that she was Tilted
by young Grant, but claims the match
was broken off by mutual consent.
Miss Flood is an accomplished and
amiable lady, highly esteemed by all
who know her. She possesses in her
own right, 81, 500, 000 in government
bonds, presented to her on a recent
birthday.
The English noble referred to by
the London paper is believed to be
Lord Beaumont, who was in San
Francisco not long since. 1t is under
stood that the young noble made over
lures for the hand of the wealthy
young heiress, but demanded a dover
Of S5,000,000, which old man Flood
Indignantly refused.
