HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
The value of Green Salads.

A green salad is an invaluable foil foi
the heavy American breakfast, as well as
for the roa-t at dinner. VIXEN properly
chosen and prepared, it stimulates the
appetite, favors the digestion and assim-
ilation offat foods and promotes the en-
tire ailimentary process. Lettuce, cold,
boiled peas, beans. turnips, beets, cauli-
flower or potatoes make good salad, with
about one-fourth of their quantity Of
sliced onion. The best dressing for these
salads is three spoonfuls of oil to one of
vinegar, and a palatable seasoning of
salt and pepper. The addition of pars-
ley TO the salad moderates the odor of
the onion TO degree.

Gold Blankets in South Africa.

In the Witwatersrandt district South
Africa, the gold bearing formation is
what is known as blanket sort Of
conglomerate that is wonderfully easy
to reduce. Blanket can be reduced fcs
less than s. ton. 1t is composed Of q
sort of pebbly quartz, cemented together
by fine silicious sand. A piece of it
NAV easily be crushed beneath the foot,
and a little water poured over a lump
will cause it to crumble at once.
Such is a blanket, and the gold is
contained chiefly in the cement. Veins
OF positive quartz are found in the same
reef, as the bsnket, but the mills sre
work ng exclusively on the latter so far.
Blanket runs in lodes or veins, varying
from one to twenty feet wide. There is
such an abundance of this material near
the surface that 1t is practically mex
haustible, and as deep as shafts have
thus far been sunk it holds its own in
width of Elm aud richness. Thousands
of stamps may find remunerative employ
ment light and day for years on banket
now in plain sight.
At present nearly thousand stamps
are WORKING hteaull1 On Dhnhet IN VIC
Witwatersrandt district alone, and it is
thought that by this time next year six
times that number will be hard at 1t.
The average cleanup yields about one
and one half ounces Of gold to the stamp
per day. At this rate some OF the
companies have commenced paying dIyi-
bends at the rate of fifty per cent
year on the capital invested, and shares
are held at ten and twelve times their
original cost a few months ago. This

There is one feature about ivy which
is disastrous rather than romantic, and
which must be guarded against. Give
it time enough and it will unroof your
house. In any very old house you will
find it lifting the tiles, and through any
small aperture sending bright green
shoot through the ceiling into the loom.
The writer of this sheet well remembers
reluctantly having to destroy a noble ivy,
and having entirely also TO re-roof a
whole building it had overrun.-C GsseIt''

Touched with their FIRE
Each fresh endeavor.

Along the way

And hearts that beat
