DROP CAKES. cupful of sugar,
half cupful of butter, ono cupful of
molasses, one eupful of sour milk, one
egg, one generous teaspoonful of gin

and bake quickly.
BREAD AND BUTTER PUDDING Take
the seeds from half pound of raisins,
cut little citron in very thin pieces and
mix with the raisins; cut half loaf of
stale bread in thin slices AID butter them
on both sides. Put In a baking dish a
layer of the slices of bread and sprinkle
the fruit thickly over; then put alternate
layers of bread and fruit till all is used,
having the bread on the top. Make q
custard of four eggs to quart of milk
and about six tablespoonfuls of sugar
and pour over the bread and fruit, and
bake half or three-qu:irters Of an hour
according TO the size of your dish. Serve
hot in the dish in which it is baked.
TEA.-Two things are necessary to in
sure good tea: first, that the water should
be at the boiling point when poured on
the leaves (water simply hot not answer
ing the purpose at ala and second, that
it should be served freshly made. Tea
should never be boiled. So particular
are the English to preserve its first aroma
that it is is sometimes made on the table
two or three times during a meal. In
France little silver canisters OF tea are
placed on the table. where tits invariably
made. One teaspoonful Of the leaves is
fair portion for each peron. Tea is
better made in an earthen teapot, which
tea connoisseurs are particular to have.
They also drink the beverage without
milk, and with loaf-sugar merely. Water
at the first boiling point is generally con-
sidered better for tea or coffee and. In
fact, any kind of cooking which requires
boiling water. Hrs. Henderson's Psacts-
cal Cooking.
RoAsT MEAT.-Meat to be roasted. es-
pecially beef, should be put into a very
hot oven, so that Il viii cook Quickly
upon the outside. The Juices are thus
retained, which would simmer out into
the dripping-pa If the oven were only
moderately warm. Roasting meat should
be thoroughly dredged with flour before
being put into the oven, but should not
be sailed till partly cooked, as salt ex-
tracts the juices from raw meat. Beef
should Be cooked for about fifteen min
utes for every pound IL il is TO be eaten
rare. which is the most healthful way to
eat It. Mutton requires about twenty
minutes TO the pound. lamb little more,

There are three prominent and very
destructive apple tree borers in the United
States. Saperda candida and Saperda
cretata are much alike, live as grubs
each three years, boring through and
through the trees, and often so weaken
ing the trunk that the tree becomes VIC
tim to the first hard wind. The beetles
lay their eggs in June and July. The big
headed borer or grub-bores on the
south, west. or southwest side of the
trees; lives but one year; works just
under the bark which turns dark colored
without the excavations work on
branches as well as trunk, and is more
apt to attack trees of feeble growth,
hence more to be dreaded after hard
winters, and the first year after planting.
These beetles also lay eggs in June and
July. The remedy for all these insectsr
cheap, sure, and easy of application is
to glove ones hands and rub the trunks
and main branches with soft-soap. This
ought to be done early in June, and
three or four weeks later, though one APP
plication is often effective. 1t is aston
ishing to note how the trees, by their
added vigor. thrift and healthful APP
pearance, endeavor to thank us for this
excellent use of little soft-soap. For
young orchards this is specially desira-
BILE. The soap kills the eggs or prevents
opposition. - an Apple GrOacin0 EntO-

it until at least FIVE weeks old, make it
thoroughly fat, kill it yourself, and keep
ct least one ''quarter" for your own

parties who know what good veal is, and
are willing to pay for it. You will get

Here in our climate people can not
be too careful about their dress, and II
is about time they were beginning to
understand that overdressing is just as
detrimental to health as embarrassing.
The human body is so constituted as
to readily and safely adapt itself to any
ordinary atmospheric changes that may
take place. When the heat rises be-
yond a certain point, perspiration sets
up and is followed by evaporation,
which is the natural process of reduc-
inc the temperature. When the tenn
perature falls below a given point, COM
bustion is increased and heat enough
generated to keep the warmth OF the
body up to the normal standard.
Nature can be aided in this work, but
there is great danger of doing more
harm than good. By dressing very
warm she allows her fires to get quite
low-in fact. many have to resort to
the cooling professor, by not wear
ing sufficient clothing, she may exhaust
her supply of fuel in her efforts to keep
up the necessary heat. Either extreme
should be studiously avoided.-PittS-
blsrqh Dispatch.

HOW It's SabEc4u Do
vented.
When this disease occurs in family
it is a question OF the greatest impor-
tance that its spread to other members
be prevented. 1t is not always possible
to send children away, nor is it always
safe. as they may be infected and spread
the disease elsewhere. The best method
OF preventing the spread of the disease
TO other members of the family is by
means of disinfectiOn; and by disinfec-
ton is not meant tae use Of special sub
stances that destroy germs. but cleanli
ness. In the first place keep the roOn
in which the sick child is confined thor
ourlllv ventilated; remove all superllU-
ous furniture and carpets; destroy ali
rdrs and bits of paper used in washing
the sick; put all linen and tOweling used
in the room into boiling water and boil
them thoroughly till every germ is
killed. But still another thing must be
done; principal source of the infection
is the skin. so bathing should be prac-
ticea. and after the bath oiling the body
all over. Oil serves TO Kill the germs;
they DO not develop IN it. or, if they do,
can not fly away into the air. With per

LOCUsTs HEARD IN THE PARK.

The seventeen-year locusts have ap-
peared in Central Park, New York City,
and various parts of Kings county, as
predicted by Prof. C. V. Riley, the
United States Entomologist.
"They have appeared here every sew
enteen years, so long as w have record,
at least" said Prof. Riley recently, and
perhaps for ages past. Their rafting
song must have been heard in the woods
of the island when there were only wild
animals to hear it. When approaching
the surface they sometimes build %conical
galleries, from four to six inches above
ground, to escape the rain, and in the
upper end Of the galleries the pup@ live.
When the time of the change arrives,
they descended to the level of the earth,
go forth and attach themselves to any
convenient object, and become winged
insects. In the creeping state they live
at great depths, and have been known to
appear first in cellar bottoms over five
feet below the surface. They emerge
from the earth in early evening, and
within an hour the wings develop. After
a day or SO the bodies develop strength,
and they begin to sing and fly. They
will soon turn Central Park into a thresh-
ing machine, when all are singing at
at once. Soon they will pair, and the
females will deposit eggs in the trees,
where they will saw holes for them. The
eggs are white, about one-twelfth Of an
inch long. with obtuse ends. Before
emerging from the pupal state the insect
is attacked by many enemies-beetles.
hogs. poultry and parasites. Although
in the winged state the insects attack
the roots of fruit trees, they seldom
destroy them. They are even charged
with singing people, but this is quite a
myth"

THE VALUE OF TORNADO
RETREATS.

The fearful ravages Of the recent tor
nadoes rouse the people Of the Western
States to the necessity OF providing
means of escape from these monsters of
the air. Last weeks Iowa storm was
very destructive to houses, barns and
churches, but north of Sioux City no
one was killed, as the people fed to
their "cyclone cellars" previously pre-.
pared for just such an emergency. As
the law of the tornado's fight carries it
generally in q northeasterly or easterly
direction, it is obvious that the under
ground retreat should be built on the
west side of the family residence. Other.
wise, when the house is smashed 10
pieces and hurled eastwardly, the debris
would be piled upon the retreat, making
exit after the retreat dificult and danger.
BUS. Several plans have been proposed
by Lieutenant Finley for the construc-
tion Of such a retreat. The best of these
seems to be the excavation in the west
wall Of the house cellar OF an opening
extending far enough to give shelter to
the whole family, strongly rooted and
ventilated through the roof. In some
cases "dugouts" constructed some
distance from the house would be use.
less because the great speed of the tor.
nado cloud would leave no time for re.
treat from the house. But it is quite
probable that in the large majority Of
tornadoes a family would have ample
warning in time to gain the cellar cave
before the critical moment arrived.
