It's Good Enough.

"Therel | guess that will do, -
said John, as he took a shovelful of
ashes out of the stove. 1.-The pan
isn't empty, but it's near enough !;
nobody will see it. If can get the
store swept in about five minutes, |
can finish that story in the Preside
Companion before any one comes. )"
The store was swept very much as
the stove had been cleaned. The
open spaces presented good appear
ance, but out-of the-way corners
and underneath boxes and barrels
told different story. However,
John said it was ''good enough"
The story was finished, and the
paper hidden out of sight before the
clerks arrived. Then Mr.. Willis,
the proprietor, came in, babe them
all "good morning." glanced around
the store, and went into his private
office. Presently, he called, John:
ssTake these letters to the office as
soon as you can. They will be just
in time for the nine o'clock mail.
Come right back" John hurried to
the office as he was hidden, but hav-
ing deposited the letters safely, saw
no more reason for haste. Indeed,

Hints To Housekeepers.

When person is bilious he has a
bitter taste, especially on waking.
Sunlight is often the very best
medicine, especially for children and
elderly people, and the more hours
of it they get the better are their
chances for life and health.
Rise early, exercise freely in the
open air, and do not sleep in the
daytime. Eat light suppers and re-
tire at regular hour. Sponge the
body with tepid water, and rub brisk
ly with coarse towel.
Sweet, light, fine-grained bread,
twenty-four hours old, makes the
best sandwiches.
Never send to the table the same
food for three meals in succession,
unless varied in some way.
A good cook throws away nothing.
Every piece of bread, every inch of
meat, every particle of vegetable,
can be turned into something palat-
able.

Grace's Cure.

Grace Carr had. bad trait. When
told that she must not do a thing,
she would say, "Oh yes; I want to, .
or ~ will, if l want to.
She went out to a farm to see
some friends. 1t was all so new
the trees, green grass, hens and
pigs-that she was delighted. For
a few days, all went well. Then
one day she went long way from
the house, to see her friend Guy
Grayson set trap for rats. 1t was
steel trap and had sharp teeth.
Snow Grace" said Guy, ''you
must not touch his trap If you
should get your hand or foot in it,
you would be hurt, oh, so bad y
"Let me try and see how it goes.
Play | am rat" replied the naughty
child.
Guy gave her a push and said,
"Stop, you must not"
With pouts that spoiled her lips,
Grace went off and in a sweet voice
said, 81 guess | will, if | want to-"
She ran to a swing made for her
in the grape-house. Soon Guy heard
her sing, and he knew that her grief
was not deep. But she let the trap
stay in her mind and, when Guy
had gone into the house, she thought
she would go and see if rat had
been caught. No; there was the
bait.
She did not think it would snap
quick. it took SO long to set it; she

On Bread Making.

l was forty years old when | learn
ed to make bread. l thought it was
such a herculean task, the making
and molding, the baking of the loaves
and the knowing when they were
done right, that | willingly left it to
the servant who might be reigning
pro tenn. Finally, when one was
about leaving, said to her, Snow,
Mary, | want to know how to make
bread as you do, and before you 60
away you must teach me-" And as
/ | find bread making now an easy and
most satisfactory accompli- hment,
would like to submit my way of do
ing it for the help of young house
wives.
Take sixteen good-sized cups of
sifted -four, one-half cup of sugar,
one third cup of lard and one-fourth
cup of salt Mix all together slowly
and easily with one hand or both, till
thoroughly mixed; this will likely
take ten minutes. Your cake of com
pressed yeast should all this time
have been broken up and put to soak
in half a cup of cold water, and must
now be added to the -four. Now add
slowly with your left hand, while YOU
stir with your right, ~ cups of luke
warm water. Your dough is now of
the right consistency, and YOU can,
after moulding it for few moments
in the pan, turn it out upon the
kneading board and mold it with both
hands till it becomes even, smooth
and satiny. Now turn the big ball
back into your pan, cover with thin
cloth, and set it in IA moderately warm
place till morning. In summertime
it will be ready very early, and in
winter about nine O'Clock, to be put
in the bread pans. | do not take the
trouble to turn the bread again upon
the board, but take off enough for
loaf, and molding it into shape with
my hands, put it into the bread pan.
You will need five medium sized pans.
In cold weather begin your bread
making III the afternoon, in warm
weather late in the evening.
AS l am writing this receipt for
young housekeepers, it may be nee
essary to tell them that these loves of
bread must rise after being put in the
pans, until they seem light and
spon gy. Then pierce each loaf few
times with a fork, and place them in
a hot oven to bake about an hour.
always test my bread with a broom
splint. If 1t comes out dry the bread
is done.
You will feel amply repaid for
learning how to make bread from the
above receipt when your husband
says, "This is excellent bread;
could just make my breakfast off a
good cup of coffee and bread like
this. Mrs. W, an Christian at
Work

SeaSonable Hints.

There is always some danger from
the common use of kerosene foI
lights and occasional accidents occur.
If lamp is dropped or exploded,
one of the quickest remedies is to
cover the spreading flame with a
wooden blanket, avoiding cotton,
which would only increase the fire.
But in the confusion of the accident,
many persons in their fright would
not think of the wooden cover unless
the matter were previously impressed
on their minds. Every person,
therefore, who lights lamp or has
another do it, should look about the
room and impress the mind with
what blanket, rug or shawl or spread,
made of wool, could he quickly
caught up and used to stiae and eX-
tinguish the flame. Half the danger
of any accident is cured, when one
knows at once what to do.
If dwelling ever catches fire, the
first thing, well impressed on the
mind previously, is to shut every
door in passing through. Leaving
doors open allows the flame quickly
to get possession. A neighbors' large
two story house was found to be on
fire at midnight. The family, ter
rifed, ran Wildly from room to room,
leaving every door wide open, and
in ten minutes the whole building
was in a mass of flame, and nothing
was saved. Had the doors been
kept slut, much of the furniture
might have been saved.

would just stir the bait. All there
was no need or time for more. Snap
it went, and caught her whole hand.
1t hurt her so badly that she could
not cry out for some tim and,
when she did, she was too far from
the house to be heard. So there she
lay, while Guy read a long story.
Then he went to look at his trap,
and there he found poor Grace.
She had such sore hand! But it
was her cure.
The lesson was sharp and severe,
but effectual. She did not say th Sc
wrong words, but would mind at

The corn crop, next to the potato
| crop, is the most expensive a farmer
can grow. The excess of expense in
the potato crop is altogether in the
seed. Flowing, fitting the land, cul-
tivation and harvesting are about as
expensive for one as the other. The
point that should most impress farm
ers is that with the corn crop heavy
manuring and high culture always
secure a profitable return. With po-
tatoes there is risk from rot if too
much manure is applied, or a wet
season may cause rot anyway. The
little extra labor necessary to assure
full crop of corn is the only part of
the farmers work from which he
never gets cheated out of his pay.
Notwithstanding the predictions of
Prof. Charles S. Sargent, in the
United States Census Report of 1880,
that the pine and spruce timber of
New England would be exhausted
about this time, yet it is estimated
that upwards of 800, 100000 feet of
logs have been cut this year. We
believe that fully 500, 100000 feet
per annum may be cut in New Eng
land for the next forty years, and
even then the new growth will supply
a heavy demand. 1t seems a popu-
lar fallacy to underestimate the guam
tity of standing timber in this
country.

The prejudice against too high
feeding of breeding animals of any
kind is in this country chiefly due to
the fact that we feed so largely on
corn. That is not good food for
COWS, which if at all we'll bred are
naturally disposed to lay on fat. But
it is no reason why other breeding
stock should not be reasonably well
fed so as at least to be in good order
when their young are born. We are
very glad to see that j. S. Woodward,
secretary of the New York Agricul
tural Society, recommends high feed
ing for breeding ewes. He does not
feed largely on corn, but gives enough
grain to keep the ewes in high condi-
ton. A sheep does not naturally
take to fat as hog does, and only
by having the ewes in good order can
their lambs be brought to the right
condition for early marketing.
