HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
CarYill@.


The dish, which should always be OF
good size, must be placed 50 near the
carver as to give him or her full control
of it. Fowls should be placed breast up:
Put the fork into the breast and take OF
the wings and legs first, without turning
the fowl; then cut out the breast bone,
30 as to leave the we'll Drowned skin over
it, as also the white meat; then cut OF
the side bones and divide the carcass,
which is left in two, from the neck
down, leaving the rump on one part to
be served in separate portion; then
remove the second joint from the leg and
the wing, as they are much more easily
managed on the plate when thus thor
oughly dissected.
4 sirloin of beef should be placed on
the dish with the tenderloin underneath.
Thin-cut slices should be taken from the
side next the carver, then turn over the
roast and carve the tenderloin. A por-
ton of both should be helped. Be care
full to cut across the grain of the meat.
A leg of mutton should be carved
across the middle of the bone first, and
then from the thickcst part until the
gristle is reached. A few nice slices can
be cut from the smaller end, but it is
generally hard and stringy.
A ham can be carved in several ways.
By cutting long, delicate slices through
the thick fat down to the bone; by run
ming the point of the knife in a circle in
the middle and cutting thin, circular
slices, thus keeping the ham moist; or
by beginning at the kauckle and slicing
upward. The last mode is considered the
most economical.
A tongue should be carved in very
thin, delicate slices, its delicacy depend
ing very greatly upon attention to this.
The slices from the center are considered
the most tempting, and should be cut
across and the slices taken from each
side with portion of the fat which is at
the root
ALoin of Veal-Begin at the small end
and cut the ribs apart; cut off piece OF
the kidney with the lat, and help each
plate to some.
A fllet of veal should be cut first from
the top, and in breast of veal the breast
and brisket should be separated and then
cut in pieces.
roast pig should have the head re-,
moved before coming to the table. Gut
of the legs, joint at the knee and divide
the ribs.
A Saddle of Venison-Cut thin, even
slices from the tail toward the upper
part on each side. Venison should a.
ways be servel hot, on well-warmed
plates.
Loins of veal, mutton or Tenison
should always be joirted by the butcher
before cooking, and then they are readily
carved.
Fish-In carving fish some practice is
needful in order to prevent the fakes
from breaking. The CHI ;icest NOR els OF
all large fish are near the head, then the
thin parts come next; the flavor of tho
part nearest the bone is never equal to
those on the upper part. Fish is usually
placed On dish under part uppermost,
as there lies the best part. In carving
fish fish knife should be used, and if
handled with lightness of touch and dex-
terity the person using it will find very
little trouble in carving it.

The Straight and the Curved Line.

The explanation Of the old axiom that
"The curvel line is the line of beauty
saws the New York Journal of C0mnaer, e,
may be found in the fact that no grace
full form and no picture can be made or
drawn in straight lines. The quotation
asked for Vads as followers:
Straight is the line of duty;
Curved is the line of beauty;
Follow the straight line thou shalt see
The curved line ever follow thee.
The lines are by William Maccall
(author Of elements of Individuality, 'D

A Dogs Devotion.
Albany Journal

John Templeton is a blacksmith who
owns fine specimen of the Englieh mas
tiff. Last week Mr.. Templeton was work
ing at his forge, putting a new steel in
the point of a pick. The steel was
slightly burned in heating, and, instead
of welding, flew in half dozen pieces.
One piece struck the blacksmith above
the right eye with such force as to fasten
itself IN firm. The blacksmith staggered
and fell backward. How long he was IN
conscious he does not know, but when he
revived the dog lay in the middle of the
shop crying almost like a human being,
and rubbing his jaws in the dust CT the
floor. The piece of steel that had struck
Mr.. Templeton lay short distance from
the dog. The faithful animal had seized
the hot steel with his teeth and drew it
from the frontal bone of Mr.. Temple
toms head. The dogs mouth was found
to be badly burned.
