Cookery

a high authority In cooking recon-.
:mends that, when baking custard, you
should set the basin or pudding dish
containing it into another dish filed
with hot water; this keeps the temper
allure more even, and the danger Of
scorching is entirely done away with. a
more delicate favor is insured also. III
The ideal and most unattainable ice
cream is made by following this recipe:
Two quarts Of cream (not milk, one
pound Of pulverized sugar, two eggs,
Beat the eggs; then beat the sugar with
them; then the cream. Let this just
come to boil; then remove from the
fire, flavor with vanilla, strain it through
a very fine sieve, or, if you have none, o
clean new piece Of cheese cloth will an
swer in place of one. When cool put it
in the freezer and freeze, stirring until
it is too hard to turn any longer.
The ordinary pressed veal is greatly
improved in flavor if equal parts of veal
and of beef tongue are pressed together.
The meat should be chopped quite fine
and thoroughly seasoned with pepper
and salt. Press with your hands very
hard as yon put the meat into the bowls
intended for it. They should be but
tered so that the meat will turn out
smoothly. Slice it thin, and garnish
the platter with water cress, or with
small lettuce leaves.
Hominy Fritters help make variety
for the breakfast table. Boil the hon.
my the day before, then take two tea
cupfuls Of it and stir a small cupfll OF
sweet milk and little salt with it, and
one egg, four ta5lespoonfuls of flour,
with half tablespoonful OF baking
powder. Have your frying pan ready
with the fat hot in it; drop this batter
in by spoonfuls, and fry delicate
brown. The flavor is better if half but
ter and hall lard is used, rather than all
lard.
GOLDFISH WITH CrEAN.-Soak the fish
over night. In the morning let it sim
mer on the fire one hour; drain it in a
colander; pick it in small pieces; put it
in q saucepan with pint Of boiling milk
one tablespoonful of butter, dessert
spoonful OF prepared flour and half q cup
of cold milk, mixed together Add tc
the fish and let it come to boil. Re
move from the fire, stir in an egg beaten
to froth. Serve Immediately.
LEMON M4R,1ALADE-Slic the lemons

add three pints CT cold water to each
pound Of f!ui5 after being cut into
pieces: let it stand tvanty-four honrs
boil it until tender, pour into al eartben
bowl until the following day, weigh it.
and to every pound Of boiled fr11iI add

together till tie syrup jellies and the
chips are rather transparent.

Sauces for Meats.

A sauce is great addition to every
variety of meat, whether roasted. boiled,
or fried, and in most cases it is abso-
lutely necessary. There ere literally
but two sauces, the white and brown:
from these come all the varieties suited
to each kind of meat and every mode of
cooking it, The brown sauce is SIMPLY
e. rich stock, we'll favored with vegeta-
bles and herbs, and thickened with
burned -four or some OF the Juices re-
manning in the pan in which the meat
aus been fried or roasted, treated the
same way, and thinned with boiling
water. This sauce may be varied by
adding little mushroom powder, or
few chopped oysters are excellent with
beef or veal. Worcestershire sauce or
picked walnuts, chopped, GO adlira-
bly, with pork chops.
There are SO many ways to vary the
seasoning Of sauces as to make even the
same dish a change. It is well, there
fore to invest little money in these
things, which would save an immense
amount of worry at the last minute.
For instance, lay in stock of capers,
olives, pickles, waln1ts, catsup, pack
age of compressed vegetables, and q few
bay leaves MushTomo powder can
easily he made, and its uses are infinite.
Sifrcd lightly over steaks OF chops it is
delicious. Take q quality OF large,
fresh mushrooms, look them over care
fully to see that they are not wormy:
cleanse them with a piece Of flannel
from sand or grit. Peel them and put
them in the sun or cool oven to dry
They require g long, slow drying, and
must be reduced to q state to crilmble.
Keep them in an air tight jar.

What They Think Of Us.

The people of the farming districts Of
England know but little about the
United States. An American lady was
asked if she did not think England the
best country in tn world. Her reply
WAS simply "Amcrica is my native coun"
try" A perplexed "Oh!" was soon fol-
lowed by the astonishing question,
"Then how did you come to learn Eng
lisL ?'
An English farmers wife happened to
notice this same lady using bees wax
while sewing.
Ibid chat bees wax come from your
country?'
Yes, T believe So"
"Is it possible? Do you have bees
there? Then I shouldn't be quite so
frightened now, coming to your coun-
try to live" Then, after little refec-
ton, she added, II am quite struck with
the civilization of your folks!"
Their ideas about the natural features
of our continent are vague. A farmer
asked, incredulously, "Do you mean to
say that your States are really larger
than England, Scotland and Ireland put
| together? I can't believe such story
as that you fiabbergast meP'
But such ignorance is not to be won
dered at, when the latest edition Of
"Gill's Imperial Geography, for College
and School use, published in London,
makes such statements as the following
under the general head of the United
| States:
ISLANDS There are none Of impor
lance, except Long Island, one hundred
and fifteen miles in length, and twenty
miles in breadth. on which Brooklyn, The
southern supb11rb Of New York, stands
and Rhode Island, seventeen miles dong
and three miles broad, which forms il
itself the smallest Of the United States.

GOSSIP FROM THE HUB.
Our Boston Representative Takes a Trip
to Maine and Brings Back Some
Items of Interest.
Correspondence Of tie senti,,el


BosroN, August 12.-I have been
away on o vacation, and that accounts
for my long silence. l have been
down in Maine, near the home of
James of Augusta.
If any one stays any length Of time
in Maine, he is sure to think that James
is to be the next President. That is
a great Greenback State, and it is all
Blaine or Butler.
The Democrats, realizing that Cleve-
land cannot get the vote of the State,
that Blaine is sure of it anyway, think
they will show the doughty ex Cover
nor of the Old Boy State what a large
complementary vote he will get from
the Maineites.
The Republicans have had a can
vass of Maine, and think they are sure
of gain of 4, 900 over two years ago.
If this is correct, then there will be a
plurality of about ten or twelve thou
sand.
Judge Libby, of Augusta, who
has always been a Democrat, has
"come out for Blaine. The Prohi-
bitionists have also declared agains
St. John, but all this does not injure
the Democrat cause, for Maine Is al
ways sure to go for the Republican
candidate.
Secretary Chandler, of the U. S.
Navy, is at present on visit to Bos-
ton Harbor, and as Blaine is also
there, it is to be supposed that there
will be smoked the pipe of peace and
the two will again be friendly.
Our towns, Hon. P. A. Collins,
Member of Congress, has distinguished
himself by making one of the best
campaign speeches on record. Ifany one
man can draw Democratic votes from
the working men of the Republican
party, he is that man, az he reach es
right to the heart of the people, being
a workingman himself before he stud
led law, which is now his profession
A fine speaker, strong Catholic, and
man of the people, / presume he did
a great deal of good in his speech al
New York yesterday.
If the Herald report is true, the
Independents already snuff victory
It said this morning that the Secretary
had received among other letters the
following:
II am an old Republican, and in
tended to vote the straight ticket, as
usual but when man like Jack Lo-
gan influences Republican President
| to veto bill for the relief Cf so good
a man as Fitz John Porter, am not
going to vote any longer for that par
ty, and shall vote the straight Demo
crat ticket, both State and National"
It is doubtful if the Republicans
can carry Massachusetts, this year, OIL
at least on the National ticket.
