TapiOCa Puddings.

Two kinds of tapioca pudding, very de-
lIcious, are thus made: a. Pare and core
sufficient apples to fill the pudding dish; soak
half pint of tapioca in a quart of lukewarm
water for one hour; add a little salt, flavor
with lemon, pour over the apples. Bake
until the apples are tender. Eat, when cold
with cream and sugar. C2.) -Four tablespoon
fuls of tapioca soaked for two hours i'll tepid
water. When the tapioca has softened add a
quart of cold water, pinch of salt, tablespoon
full of molasses and two large apples, peeled,
cored and sliced. Place in covered dish and
bake in the oven for two hours, stirring &C.
casionally; then remove the cover, still STIR
ring. In half an hour the pudding should
be deep brown Pour into another dish
and serve hot with hard sauce The hard
sauce is made by beating to cream one cup
of sugar. one heaping teaspoonful of butter
and one teaspoonful of boiling water. Flavor
with lemon or vanilla.-Good Housekeeping.

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Variety In Eating and the Food Of the
Future.

Variety In Eating and the Food Of the
Future.
The race Is becoming more sensitive, and
gradually developing a finer, more high
strung nervous organization, 1t Is said. Ply
scians note that while the normal pulse beat
Is put at seventy to seventy-flve by the medi-
cal authorities, there is scarcely one person
In ten in whom it is not quicker than that.
It proves that we are developing more and
more the nervous organization.
But that need not necessarily mean that we
are growing weaker, or that the race is rum
ming out. A nervous man need not be a
sickly man. 1t may mean only that the
line is becoming more and more distinct
between man and the hog, OK and elephant
And it certainly means that il we arc begin
ming to have finer nervous organization
that we should change the character and
quantity of our food. The finely strung
electric nerved man of the future cannot eat
messes any more, as our fathers did before
us. Those monstrous "biled dinners" con-
sisting of huge mounds of green pork and
cabbage, those piles of fried bacon, SWIM
ming in lard, will disappear. Their place
will be taken by more fruits, cereals, eggs
|
titles.
Already the change seems beginning. Peo
pie who have tried it declare that they can
sustain life OH half the quantity OF food con-
sidered necessary in the old times AT the
same time they are in better health than they
were before. There are persons, writers and
others, among the most intelligent members
of the community, who live on one solid meal
;,,~~ II, IL nIy
constantly.
The fasting men and women-those who
live eighteen, twenty and forty days without
tasting anything but water, are becoming so
common that they cease to attract much at
tention. Certain scientific men say they
have discovered that mingled in the atmos-
phere are to be found all the elements neces-
sary to sustain life. The fasters noted in the
newspapers spend much time in the open air,
in the fields and among the trees. They say
it nourishes them.
Signs seem to indicate that the grosser,
heavier foods are to be discarded by the COM
ing race. The good housekeeper will there
fore begin to lay before her finely organized
family the food which will suit their nervous
systems. Variety will be secured not by hav
ing great number of heaping dishes at
once, but by two or three dishes of appetiz-
ing, healthful food. One dish of something
one likes is better than ten piled with rubbish
that one cannot eat Then good-by to heavy
messes. The real, refined way to secure va
riety is to have only two or three different
dishes at one time, changing next day or next
meal to something else The food set before
the family should be sufficient in quantity, of
the best quality to he had in the market,
carefully and daintily cooked and put upon
the table in the most attractive way known
to the houseleeper. Finally it is to be eaten
by a clean, neat, cheerful family, who are
always polite to each other
Such is the gastronomyof the coming race

The Knife and Fork.

No question ever had better reasons on both
Ies than that, whether one sending a plate
% be helped a second time should leave the
',nife and fork on the plate or hold them in
he hand. IT one sends them with the plate
some one is liable to have them dropped on
the soft spot of his or her head in passing
back and forth. They are liable to settle
themselves on the exact spoG the helper wishes
TO deposit the article of food sent for; then
the helper must remove them or deposit the
food on them. If one holds them in the hand
while waiting he is in no graceful position.
Think of one chatting with lady beside him
about orchids or chrysanthemums, or the
Wagner school of music, with greasy knife
and fork in his hand. Then, in which hand
shall he hold them! Shall he rest his wrist on
the table and violate a rule of long standing?
or hold them up as an officer would carry
sword on parade? There are many knotty
questions of etiquette, but few more knotty
than this

Life with a Broken Neck.

The Chicago Journal tells the story of a
remarkable case of fracture of the spine and
cord Mr.. Andrew Hamilton was coaching"
Some college men in the gymnasium, and,
while showing some simple performance ON a
ow crossbar, dropped about four or five feet
bn the mattress. By some peculiar wrenching
iof the neck he cracked the fifth cervical bone
and compressed the spinal cord. From that
moment on the whole Of the body below the
neck was completely insensible; nor could he
move single muscle, except to contract two
fingers OH each hand. He had to call the at
(tendant to open the hand. He was kept alive
ION milk, which was poured down his mouth,
land his body was supported by floating it on
Ia rubber sheet in tub of water. His mind
|lwas perfectly clear he talked, read the daily
diapers, and even onsulted his professor on
tGaadipg a matheT atical work This contin-
ued for fourteen lays He then broke down
and died on the sixteenth day after the fall.
1t seemed ha dly possible that, life should
continue and the brain go on acting If the
cord were severed, and yet the post mortem
examination showed plainly that the cord
was reduced to a mass of pus.

cents-TemPt the Appetite.
The convalescent state In the case Of many
diseases is OF as great Importance as the period
IT the actual disease. In recovery from diph.
heria, for instance, the action of the heart b
weakened, and any overexertion causing too
,reat strain upon 1t may prove fatal After
Fellow fever solid food taken too early or ex-
rtion before the patient has had time to re-
operate is often attended with relapse. And
yellow fever relapse usually means death.
chill after scarlet fever may also bring ON
relal So, and inlprudence IN eating in con-
salesccnce after typhoid fever may cause
perforation of the intestines and speedy death.
Solid food should not be given the patient
except when directed by the attending physi-
ian. A convacsccnt's diet should be digest
'ale ana tempting to the appetite, except
ifter typhoid fever, when the appetite should
no suppressed. In convaescence the meals
begin to be looked forward to with pleasure,
nut the appetite is usually so delicate and so
4asiy offended that unless the food is brought
nto the sick room in dainty shape it is liable
o be sent away untasted. The tray should
Ne covered with a snowy napkin; the teacup
'hould be of the prettiest china, and the
lands daintily arranged Oh the plates, and
lot in too large quantities. By this means
'heappetite is first tempted indirectly through
The eye.
As soon as it can be done with safety, the
patient should return to three meals day.
This gives time for the food to be digested
without overtaXing the stomach. Some light
food should be given the last thing at night.
A cup of hot milk, cocoa or thin BROTH or an
egg beaten in milk, will prevent too early
waking or exhaustion in the morning. Above
all things, a convalescent should never be re-
quired to wait for food when it is needed. II
there must be delay in preparing a meal,
biscuit or a glass of milk should be given
while waiting.
When the patient is sufficiently recovered
to take a stronger diet than milk and beef
tea, well baked, mealy potato may he
!,ivcn 1t should be thoroughly cooked,
mashed smoothly, splinkled with salt and
served with hot cream poured over it. Some
physicians recommend fish in the early
stages OF convalescence Oysters are easily
tligested and are good convaescent food.
They may be prepared in any way except
fried. Juicy, tender beef steak or mutton
chops with the superfluous fat removed,
chicken or game in season, are also suitable
when the patient is ready for them. Veget-
ables, such as asparagus, green peas, cauli-
flower, onion, may all he offered when they
are to be procured. On no account should
pastry be given, except such light dishes as
blanc mango and custard
The main rule to be adopted is to proceed
With caution, and in giving new dishes give
little at first and if there are no bad results
he quantity may be increased
The united opinion. [volume] (Bradford, Vt.) 1881-1970, 1886-12-03
Save Time and Labor.


Much time and worry can be saved by
busy housekeepers by shaving things handy
by" as my Yankee neighbors say If the
pantry is across the room from the cook
stove, shelf or table beside the stove, hay
ing on 1t at least SALT pepper, knife, fork and
spoon needed in cooking, will save miles of
steps in year. Sugar, flour, spices plainly
labeled-baking powders, favoring extracts.
ETC., kept in one place, and molding board,
rolling pin, cake cutters and baking dishes in
another group, rob baking day of half its
trials. Broom, dustpan, duster and floor
cloths hung side by side, help sweeping day to
start fair" If at some distance from store,
slate hanging in the pantry, with a pencil
tied to it, on which to jot down needed
supplies as soon as exhausted, is a real help.
An emergency corner in closet, where
rolls of warm linen and muslin. sticking
salve, sweet oil for burns, ammonia for bee
stings, arnica for sprains ETC., are kept and
another corner where paper bags, wrapping
paper and strings can always be found, prove
treasures indeed. Mrs Fisher once said that
"every room in the house ought to contain
needles, thread and scissors" A scrap bag
hung on the sewing machine-fancy or plain
will save deal of sweeping threads and
bits of cloth from the carpet. Last, though
not least cushioned chair kept "handy by
in the kitchen to rest in, if only for five
minutes, when one is SO tired, and good
book or paper within reach to pick up at odd
minutes will refresh both body and mind.
Many other things will suggest themselves
to quick witted housewives intent on making
the most of everything, themselves included.

Wind as u Seed Carrier.

At the recent meeting of the scientists at
Cambridge Alfred Russell Wallace, the Eng
lish naturalist, read paper on 1.-THE Winds
as a Seed Carrier in Relation to the Difficult
Problems in Geographical Distribution"
Some species of plants common in northern
climates, many of them being in the Arctic
fora, have wide distribution in the south
ern hemisphere. There are five prominent
causes of seed distribution: First, sea cur
rents; second, birds; third, seeds of marsh
plants adhering to the feet of birds; fourth
sticky seeds which attach themselves to the
feathers of birds; fifth, wind. The power of
the wind in transporting seeds is not yet de-
termined, but there is evidence that it can
transport light seeds to a great distance.
Dust from the Java eruption a few years ago
was found on the decks of vessels at 1000
miles distant Most of the northern
plants introduced into the south are very
light seeded ones, lighter than the dust.
!, Whether OF not wind is the agency for trans
porting these seeds, these evidences go to
show that it at least has the power.

Apologies.

any other. 1t is certainly great temptation

makes the guest feel uncomfortable The
?ell bred host passes over unfortunate cir
umstances, such as the undercooking of a
cast, the spilling of soup or gravy, the
breaking of glass with the least possible
notice. An apology only directs attention to
1 he mishap and does not do away with it.
Some people will begin the moment guest
tnters their household and make an apology
Tor every room the guest enters-for every
meal eaten 1t is, 81 intended to have that
sofa fixed last week." or "This fire should

Fo lane Language.

A gentleman should never speak profanely.
Beyond any moral objection there may be
in profanity, one must remember that it is
liable to CRATE on the feelings of another.
Sir Isaac Newton, one of the greatest minds
the world has produced and most far seeing
into the works of the Creator, is said to have
never mentioned the deity without raising
his hand to his head i'm token of reverence
If Newton did not think himself competent
to speak profanely of the creator of the
universe, it is not likely that there are others
who may, with safety, consider themselves at
liberty to dc SO.

An Accidental Discovery.

Since it has been discovered that the senses
of heat, pain, cold, touch are independent,
Prof Herzcn has recently shown from vivi-
sectional experiments the intimate relation
between cold and touch. An injury to the
cortex of the brain that destroys the sense of
touch in any region will usually also destroy
the sense of cold But in one case cutting
less deep than he had intended he found that
the sense of cold was abolished while that of
toucl, remained unlnjured, proving that the
ultimate distinction between the brain centers
of these two substances.

Water and Digestion.

The old medical theory that water taken
with food ''dilutes the gastric juice and hence
its power to disintegrate the solid food" is
Giving way before experiment. 1t is now de-
MED that water retards digestion, and is
'lainled that solid food needs liquid for aid
ng its dissolution, for holding it in suspension
when dissolved, and for facilitating its
assimilation when ready for absorption by
the body. 1t is also declared that water pro-
notes the accumulation of flesh through bet
ter assimilation of solid food.
