Manual Culture in Boston.

From the Boston Advertiser, April 25.
In the North Bennett Industrial School here
the successful experiment was tried of teach
ing boys something of carpentry, at hours
when the literary routine of the public school
did not compel their attendance As our read
ers know, this experiment has been taken I'M
by the city, which now has over 200 BOYS under
such training as had been given in the South
Boy 5 Institute, and, doubtless, in many other
places.
The Boys Institute of Industry has now been
Incorporated. Gentlemen active i'm the Indus
trial Aid society, and in the Workiugmen,s
Institute, took the initiative in the organi
cation. They hope TO press arrangements Which
give boy chance to use his hours out of
school to advantage, and they wish to 90
further in the establishment of what NAV be
called apprentice schools, for boys who have
left school and are 10 begin the regular work of
life. Such schools can be made, perhaps half
time schools, with a course for arithmetic and
other book studies half the day, interlapnino
with courses in the workroom in the other hall

Mary's" doughnuts are good, but l
have not tried them, as use but one egg
in mine and like them well. My recipe
is one egg, one cup of sugar, one of
sour milk, two-thirds cup of sour
cream, one tea-spoonful of soda and
little nutmeg; mix soft and cut out
round. 1 would like to have some one
tell why doughnuts will soak fat when
twisted and not when cut round.
SPONGE CAKE.-Three eggs, one cup
of sugar, one of flour, one tea-spoonful
of cream of tartar, one-half tea-spoonful
of soda dissolved in three tea-spoonfuls
of warm water. The last thing add

briskly. Bake about twenty-five min

knead again, and then cut into biscuit

two eggs, one tea-spoonful of butter,
one and half cups of flour, scant two
tea-spoonfuls of cream of tarter or

Good Coffee.

We often see the query why farmers
can't have as good coffee as they do at
hotels and in cities. l claim we can
have as good and better, for we have
the cream. | am a farmers wife and
not very old, but can make the best of
coffee. This is how it is done: Buy
only the best coffee-Government
Java, or that and Mocha mixed; none
other is best. You should have coffee
pot that is not black or rusty inside.
The night before you want your coffee
take large spoonful for each person
and piece of uncooked Goldfish, or the
skin (Which is better), the size of a ten
cent piece; put into the coffee-pot; add
a pint of cold water; let it remain on
the back of the stove until five minutes
before wanted; set it forward where
it will boil quickly, and then add boiling
water enough for the desired amount
set it on the table and let it remain two
minutes to settle. Another, and much
quicker way, is the same amount of
coffee and one egg, beat together, and a
pint of boiling water; let it boil five
minutes; then pour in the remaining
amount of water. Try either of these
recipes and you will have coffee as clear
as amber and fit for king. If this is
not consigned to the waste-basket, per-
haps you may hear from me again.
