Lemon Ice Cream.-Take four quarts
of the richest kind of cream, which has
not the least quantity Of milk in it. To
every quart of this cream add the essential
oil Of one lemon, half a pound of finely
pulyerzed white sugar and two newly laid
eggs. Mix well together in porcelain
lined. icing basin. Place on the fire, stirring
constantly, until the cream has reached the
boiling point Do not allow it to boil.
As soon as it has reached the boiling point
take it oil Immediately and strain through
hair sieve. When it has becCme cool
pour into the freezing-can and freeze. When
the cream is frozen, and before you begin
working it with the spatula, to every quart
Of cream add the juice OF one lemon.
Observe, that while the rest Of the rind of
the lemon is TO be worked in the mixture at
the outset the juice of the pulp is not to be
added till the cream is frozen. 1t is essen
tial that you be very particular about this.
Tie reason is that if you add the mixture
before the mixture is frozen it is apt to
cnldle the cream.

More Than n Million.

New ORLEANS, La.,-A reporter of the
Times-pemocrat who recently completed a
tour of this and neighbpring states, visiting
every city, town and hamlet, states that he
interviewed all the wholesale and retail drug
gists and storekeepers, as well as trauspor-
tation companies, with view of learning
the volume of trade in certain articles. The
statistics thus gathered show that during
the past two years over one million two
hundred thousand bottles of st. Jacobs Oil
were sold in this section alone, and that this
quantity largely excesds the total combined
sales Of all other similar remedies during
that period. He adds that dealers, as well
as the public, continue una animous in their
praise of the wonderful pain-curing powers
ofths unapproached agent.
