DIet for fIDo Sick.

DRINK IN CASES OF DIARRHGA.- "A
coffee. cup full of Drowned, coarse corn
meal. boiled in sufficient water to make
it as strong as coffee. Drink as warm as
possible.
CRACKER NADA.-Soak a cream
cracker In a pint of water until it has
absorbed almost the entire quantity.
Sprinkle cinnamon ana little sugar over
the top. then pour over the whole two
tablespoonfuls of wine or other liquor.
CURRANT JELLY. Like ice cream, the
ordinary currant jelly is too sweet for in
valids, but this recipe may please any
invalid: One pint currant juice, one and
half pints cold water, one tablespoon
full sugar, one lemon (iuice only, one
tablespoonful Cox's gelatine. Pour a
half pint of boiling water on the gela-
tine to dissolve it. Add the other in
gradients and set on the ice to freeze.
WHITE CUsTARD.-Se Separate the yolks
and whites of three eggs; use the whites
only. Take also one-fourth teaspoonful
of salt, two tablespoonfuls ofsugar. Give
a light grating of nutmeg, then one pint
rich milk Beat sugar, whites, salt and
nutmeg: then add little milk and beat
thoroughly; then add the rest of the
milk. Bake in cups, set in a pan of
water. When firm in the center, put on
the ice to cool.
Ice CREAM FOR INvALIDs. As ice
cream is sold in the stores it is too sweet
for an invalid's palate, so we give re-
cipe for making it ''just right" One
cup Of milk, one teaspoonful arrow root,
one pint cream (not very thick, half cup
of sugar half teaspoonful essence Ito
suit taste). Boil the milk until it begins
20 skin, then add dissolved arrowroot.
Boil few minutes longer and set aside
to cool; when cold add the other in
gradients and freeze.
GELATINE. buy the domestic gela-
tine in sheets from the druggist. To
make small quantity for ''bonne
bonche" for an invalid. take three
sheets. or one ounce, dissolve in one
pint of warm water. When it is thor
oughly dissolved / bring it to boil,
adding one-half cup of sugar, the juice
of lemon. and the white of an egg.
Beat it we'll and put on ice. Remember
tablespoonful served in dainty dish
may persuade your patient to ask for
more; but bowlfull will never accom-
plish that purpose. The eyes of invalids
sometimes seem TO act as stomachs to
digest before the mouth receives.
REMEMBER.-W invalids are con-
valescing they are more particular about
the minutl@ of their diet than when
well Always serve as small a quantity
as possible at once. Let everything be
neat and clean ON the tray Do not spill
the tea in the saucer nor fill the Cruel
bowl more than one-half full. When
you make toast always roll it on your
bread board with the rolIing-pin to
crush the crust; then put it on hot
plate in the oven for a minute; cover
with another hot plate and serve. If
you serve boiled eggs in the shells and
wish to keep them from cooking hard
after they have boiled three minutes,
Just take the back of the bowl of tea
spoon and crack one end little, to stop
the cooking process. Mrs. Emma Erant,

The authorities Of Charleston, South
Carolina, have opened vigorous war on the
Police Neus and the Police Gazette. They
have given notice that dealers in
this trash will be prosecuted. Only one
man has held out, and he is now under
arrest. The publishersof the prosecuted
prints intend to spend money literally to
protect their agent.
The action OF the Charleston authorities
is in every way commendablc. The class
OF literature at which they are aiming is
altogether bad. tits without a single re-
deeming feature. It caters to the lowest
tastes only. In matter and manner it Is
offensive and pernicious. Crime is tricked
out in gay colors. Villains are made he
roes. The story of the. lewd doings Of
abandoned men and women is clothed in
agarb to fascinate young and thoughtless
minds. Shocking illustrations mako bad
worse. Nothing is omitted that can con-
tribute to the debauchery Of youth.
The harm is not confined to the two
prints mentioned. There are others Of
the same grade, and there is great mass
Of trash in book form which is ut only for
the fire. We cannot expect to rear pure
minded men and women II the boys and

Tho Conditions Under Which They Will
sprout-Nature of Soils.
FameF Rerits
Heat, darkness, moisture and air are nee
essary for REORGANIZATION Of seeds though
they will freely sprout if exposed to light.
These necessities are good subjects for
consideration in preparing seed-bed for
grain grownin spring, as upon them de-
ponds materially the successful produce
ton OF crop. Take first the fact that
heat is required for The proper sprouting
Of seed in the ground. AS arule soils
are cold in thespring, seeing that there lisa
great amount of evaporation taking place
from the surface, and II the soil be un-
drained IL is all the colder, as II is more or
less waterlogged. Into soil OF this de-
scription tho atmosphere cannot well pen
etrate, but when drained tho pores oil the
soil arc free from water, and air naturally
follows on the principle that nature alb
hors a vacuum-thus air takes the place
Of water, and consequently the land be-
comes warmer, and the points necessary
for termination are gained. The chem.
ical changes which take place in the seed
while sprouting arc Of much interest; we
shall, therefore, devote little space to
their consideration. When placed in
the soil the seed first absorbs mois-
ture, then swells and sottens; al
small quantity OF white albuminous sub
stance Ia next formed at the base OF the
germ called dltdae, which converts the
starch OF the seed into sugar, the albu-
minoids becoming soluble, oxygen is alb
sorbed, carboic acid is given OIL and heat
developed. The rootlets then descend
through their sheath lin wheat and the
plumulle or sprout ascends. II the time
required for plant to come to the surface
in termination from one inch deep is ta-
ken as /, then at 2, S,4t5 and 8 inches,
the time will be as 1,5; JIG, Ia, is and
o, and the percentage Of seeds sprouting
as SO, so, so, 40 and 10. They will not
terminate ata depth Of seven inches, but
may retainltheir vitality for long time.
The best depth for wheat is from one to
two inches; the largest percentage sprout-
ing at that depth in from twelve to fifteen
days. Much OF the failure in seed corn is
due not to the non.vitality Of the seed, but
TO the conditions under which tits plant

Is prepared in accordance with the laws

Thcre is a great diversity of opinion
abroad in the land in regard to tho moral
ity Of the skating rink. Among its strong
est opponents are clergymen, theatrical
managers and saloon anl pool room keep
.ers. One preacher goes 50 far as to assert
that "the, rink Is more deadly than the
gambling!hell.b But that, OF course, de,
ponds upon how hard tho skater falls. II
sseldom that tallin the rink proves
fatal, while it not unfrequently happens
that the man who loses his money I'M
eambling.hell blows out his brains, and
nothing could be more deadly" than that
1t is not our intention 10 either de,
nounce or praise the rink. We merely
present herewith q few facts, pro and con,
which have been cleaned from the news
Of the day, aud let our readers draw their
own inference. The rink is responsible
for the annexed paragraphs:
Amarried women who was an invalid
for wears, and was given by the doctors,
became frequenter Of the rink, and In
two months gained seventy.fye pounds.
She Is now strong enough to grab her hus.
band by the collar and bump his head
against the door.jamb when he opposes
her wishes. Her husband saya the rink is
an institution for evil, and should be
squelched.
After an acquaintance Of elk weeks, a
poor but respectable young woman mar:
ried a man TO whom she was introduced
at roller skating rink. Instead OF prov
ingto be q worthless adventnrer, he iurn-
ed out to be a maR Of good sense, worth
$4,000. Her parents think the rink is q
greater blessing than the church.
"A man took his wife's mother to the
rink, because, he said, it was shame to
leave her at home while he and his wife
were enjoying themselves. Then he ems
couraeed her TO put on the skates, assur.
ing her that there was not particle oil
danger. She is now laid up with broken
leg. and her son.in.law, who goes to the
rink alone and skates with his young lady
friends. SAYS that II preachers were TO put
Themselves in his place, that would moi
denounce the rink.
One night recently q young lady went to
the rink, and on the same evening her
mora I,ious sister attended aprayer-meet.
inc. About halt.pRst eight O'Clock q cold
rain set in and continued all night A
vonng. mar, with IN umbrella escorted the
fink.ioying sister home. Tho prayer
meeting eirl was Obliged TO return alone
throueh the rain. She caught heavy
cold, and died two days later Of pnen,.
menia. All the Young men ana tneir
umbrellas were 1t the rink hence the
new craze was the indirect cause Of hef
