suit for Damages Caused bx Assienment.

CINCINNATI, May 23.-The Louis Cook Com

age suit for 100000 against the Cincinnati

that the defendant caused an attachment to be
made on their property on the strength of
note, which had not yet fallen DUE and the fact
was that the lithographng company was at
that time debtor instead of creditor of the
carriage company. The petition states that the
suit in attachment of the lithographing COM
pany was the direct cause of the forced assign
ment of the carriage company last month.

Household Hints.

DO not mix griddle cakes until ready
to fry.
Scratches on furniture, if not too deep,
ture of luseed oil and turpentine in
equal parts.
If flat irons are rough or smoky, lay a
little fine salt on Hat surface and rub
them well. 1t will smooth them and
prevent sticking.
Whiting wet with aqua ammon,s will
cleanse brass from stains, and is excel
lent for polishing faucets and door knobs
of brass or silver.
Ham relish may be made by seasoning
highly with cayenne pepper slice of
dressed ham, then broiling it, and add
ING butter, mustard and little lemon
juice.
salt will curdle milk, therefore in pre-
pairing milk toast, sauces. scrambled eggs
or anything of which milk is the founda-
tion, do not add the salt till the pan has
left the fire.
Baking powder and soda biscuits
should be put into warm pans, and
baked in quick oven; little warm
water rubbed over them just before put
ting into the oven will give them nice
color.
To remove fruit stains from a cambria
handkerchief or other white goods, dip
the stain in boiling milk; if this is not
clfectual, apply a very weak solution of
chloride OF lime, being careful to boil
the handkerchief afterward
Keep pin, cushion in the kitchen.
If none is at hand, a pin picked up is
laid on the window sill, or stuck in the
dress, to fall, perhaps, into the next
batch of bread kueaded. Each child
should be laugh, to pick up every pin it
sees and put IL in its proper place.
The fat of chickens is said by cake
maker OF great experience to be superior

delicate cake. If the fat of boiled chickens
is to be used, cook them without salt,
and there Will not be the slightest flavor
of fowl.
An excellent and simple disinfectant

mixing one large tablespoonful of cop
peras with one quart Of boiling water.
This solution is odoress and deodorizes
instantly. The copperas may he bought

For soft frosting use ten teaspoonfuls
of powdered sugar to one egg; beat
thirty minutes. For frosting and mcr-
ingue, powdered sugar should always be
used. Lay the frosting ON with knife,

little cream Of tartar-iust mite-will
hasten the hardening.

Slow Eating.

The idea of rest and recreation and
dehberation in eating no longer occu.
pies the thought of the American boy,
much less of the business men. Yet the
power of ones life depends as much
upon this as upon any one conduct OF
life. The relation of the chewing and
the juices of the mouth to the after di.
gestion, all along the digestive track,
and to that assimilation which is to give
force and vigor to work, is such that we
cannot afford to forget the essential re-
lationship. The failure Of this part of
the apparatus to do its part does not in

In the work, as we'll as in the writings
of some men, the traces of bad physi-

case when he stated that the sick man
is on the road to rascality; but, never
theless, did indicate what is true, that
man in chronic state of embarrassed

that the foundation Of many an incapac.

Pick your market chickens dry. Note
this from the Farm journal: 1--WE know
of no market where dry picked poultry
does not command two or three cents
more per pound than scalded stock. and
yet farmers in some sections continue the
practice of scalding, when dry picking is
just as easy and expeditions"
If farmer is obliged to plant on land
not enriched as he would like to have it,
he can produce part of the effect of in
creased manure by thorough tillage to
destroy weeds, and give the crop the full
benefit of what plant food the soil con-
tains. This is better and cheaper than
heavily manuring land and allowing
weeds to get most of the benefit.
Ice cold water sprinkled upon cabbage
plants infested by the imported cabbage
worm is claimed to be sure death to that
insect. The water should be sprinkled
upon the cabbages during the heat of
the day, when the worms will roll off
and die. The discovery of the remedy
is credited to Mr. Charles II. Erwin of
Painted Post, N. Y, and is communi-
Gated to the Rural Neao- Yorker by Pro-
fessor G. V. Riley.
Breeds of cows strongly predisposed to
milk production will sometimes give
more milk before the heifers have had
their first calf. Tue tendency is increased
where the young calves run together, in
which case, unless precautions are taken,
they are almost sure to learn to suck each
other. A habit of this kind is extremely
difficult to cure the cows having learned
it while young suck themselves when
they are in milk, and unless very valu-
able the best way to dispose of such is
to fatten them for the butcher
During the long summer days, when
COWS fresh in milk have plenty of grass,
they cannot carry with case the burden
of milk produced between early morn
ing ana the usual time for milking at
night. Milking at noon is good plan
in such cases, as it nearly equaIizcs the
intervening times. While the milk is in
the bag some Of its fat is being constantly
absorbed by the COW. Hence frequent
milking produces a larger product of
butter, but the COW need ali the heavier
feediag to stand such demand on her
milk producing capacity.

Chinese Sauces.

At a Chinese dinner the attendant
puts before you three small saucers. In
one is Se-Nu; in another, Gai-Rot and
in the third Lolita ing The first is q liq-
uid resembling or suggesting very diluted
Worceste' shire, the second is an acid
mayonnaise dressing and the last is a
semi solid sweet sauce made from sugar
and the fruit acids of tamarinds, dates
and prunes. These make up the list of
condiments served. Salt and pepper
boxes, the cruet and castor are I'M
known to the Mongolian epicure, or if
known are marks of poor cooking or in
ferior foods. To him dish should in
dictate in flavor and appearance, its com
ponent elements. 1t should not be
smothered in frey deluge of pepper,
nor serve as a vehicle for new dressing.
That nearly every dish needs an addi-
tional something TO make it enjoyed by
the individual is admitted by the
Oriental as well as the Occidental. The
latter supplies this want by inundating
his food with sauce regardless of the
tastes of his conviyes; the former serves
the sauce or sauces separately and al
lows his guests full discretion in their
use. In general the European pours
sauce on a food and the Chinese dips
food in sauce. - Wong ChiVoO, in the
