DOMESTIC HINTS.

III, after careful sklmmlng, tlny par
ticles of grease rise to the top of broth
that is intended for the sick, try this
method of removing it: Lay clean,
white writing paper over 1t. If the
first time trying does not remove it,
repeat the operation.
Asimple and yet ornamental way to
suspend brush broom to c wall is to
cover fan of medium size with red
silk, or sattcen will answer, then put
on two diagonel bands of silk or ribbon.
These should be lined with pasteboard,
and the brush slipped through them.
1t will readily be seen that these may
be made highly ornamental.
A pretty way to arrange the tides
made of strips of ribbon and of lace is
to gather the tidy in the center and
then tie with bow and long ends of
ribbon; the ribbon should be like that
used in the tidy. This is very eifec-
tive arrangement on the back of rat
tan chair The tidy ends must be
spread out and be caught with a stout
thread to the back of the chair.
A nice way to prepare very light
lunch for an invalid (and TO be taken
with cup of weak tea) is to toast
three milk crackers, then pour boiling
water over them, draining it off i'm
modiately, spread jam or marmaladc
over them, and pile them up, set them
into the oven while you make the tea,
and take both into the sick one, and
it will prove appetizing and refresh
ing, if unexpected.
Apple dumplings may be made in
teresting to the younger members of
the family if the apples chosen are
small enough to admit of their being
prepared thus: Cut them in two
parts, remove the core, peel the apples,
ill the space in the center with sugar,
put the apples together so that they
will appear to be whole, then wrap
the dough closely around each apple.
If the stems aIe left on, it is an inn
proyement.
Fig pudding is made thus: Chop
half a pound of good figs until they
are quite fine, Il little more than Il
quarter of Il pound of suet also
chopped very fine, and n half pound
Of fine bread crumbs. Mix these all
together well with mOasscs; add q
little sugar to sweeten it sufficiently,
teaspOonful OF salt. This pudding
requires boiling for an hour and a
half, and should be served with wine
or sour pudding sauce.
Boiled Indian pudding is improved
for some people if suct is added to give
it richness. Chop quarter of a
pound of beef suet very fine, add an
equal quantity of sugar, one teaspoon
full of ginger, half a teaSpoontul of
salt, enough sweet milk to moistcn
the meal, and a tcaspoonful Of baking
powder, or about Il cup of sour milk
and a teaspoonful of soda. rms should
boil in bag for at least three hours,
and be served hot with wine sauce.
A new way to make an apple pud.
ding is to make Il batter Of flour,
sweet milk and one egg, with baking
powder, in proper proportion. Pare
and core six tart apples, stew them in
very little water until they are quite
