How Chocolate is Made.

The chocolate that is so much es-
teemed for beverage, CONNECTIONS and
pastry is made from the beans of the
cacao tree that grows in the West
Indies. The beans, having been sep
arated from the pods, are ground to
a paste, with sugar, between heated
grindstones. When this is partly dried
the air is pressed out and it is beaten
and worked over to make an even
texture and fine grain. While the paste
is in the moulds a blast of cold air is
turned on and the glossy cakes are
ready for the market. The French con-
fectioners have no end of combinations
that they make with chocolate and
essences and other flavors. The En-
glish sailors and soldiers now get choco-
late in the form of drink two or three
times week. In England, however,
much of the chocolate is adulterated,
such substances as flour, starch, potato,
lard, chalk, bran and old sea- biscuit
being detected.-Good Housekeeping.

Useful and Ornamental.

TwINE-HoLDER.-A useful and pretty
little thing is the twine-holder. This
is a round bag crocheted in silk of two
or more colors, in which is placed a
ball of fancy Irvine, the end of which
is drawn through small, circular open
ing in the bottom of the bag. Satin
ribbons matching the colors of the silk
draw the bag together at the top, form
ing loops quarter of yard in length,
by which the bag is suspended. Two
bows finish the top of the bag and from
one of these hangs small pair of
scissors.
NIGHT-GOwN CAsE.-This, although
not novelty, is very convenient and
quite ornamental to room when laid
upon the foot of the bed. There are a
number of ways to make them, and one
pretty idea is to take two pieces of card
board half yard square, cover them
each on both sides with colored silesia,
and over that put dotted swiss or some
other pattern in embroidered muslin.
On the piece to form the top put two
full boX-plaited rufiles and puff of the
swiss, and in the center finish with a
lace tidy. Fasten the four corners to-
gether with full bows of ribbon matching
the silesia. To insert the night-dress
in the case simply fold it the required
size and slightly bend the cardboard
and slip it in.

Some Popular Errors Corrected.

Many false>notions exist in reference
to the effects of various foods upon the
human system. DR.. James G. White,
professor of dermatology at Harvard
University, in a recent article on cuta-
neous diseases, dispels the general i'm
preston that the use of butter causes af-
fections of the skin. He says it is difficult
to determine how such prejudice
against this substance could have arisen
and been perpetuated unless its former
use in a rancid state or its entering into
the composition of indigestible dishes or
as frying medium may have given rise
to disturbances of digestion. He states
that uncooked butter without exception
is perfectly harmless food so far as
the skin is concerned. He also dispels
the impression that the use of oatmeal
and buckwheat cakes causes cutaneous
eruptions. He says that the eating of
buckwheat cakes in haste while they
are hot, and with large quantities of
syrup, might give rise to acne pimples
by producing disturbances of digestion,
but not otherwise. He laughs at the
idea that tomatoes cause cancer or that
the eating of fish is dangerous when
patients suffer from skin diseases. He
reaches the conclusion that sufficient at
tention is not paid to the diet of pa
tients who suffer from such diseases and
advises physicians to watch carefully
the results of different food. He finds
that the eating of fruits, nuts and she'll
fish leads to irritations of the skin in
some individuals, but this arises from
some popularity in the consumer and
not from a general cause. The paper
is very interesting and will set aside
the fears of many persons who have
heretofore restricted their favorite diet
somewhat because they have heard
that certain foods were detrimental to
a clear, healthy complexion.

Elements of a Home.

l never saw a garment too fine for
man or maid: there never was a chair
too good for a cobbler or cooper to sit
in; never house too fine to shelter the
human head. The elements about us,
the gorgeous sky, the imperial sun are
not too good for the race. Elegance
fits man. But do we not value these
tools OF housekeeping little more
than they are worth, and sometimes
mortgage home for the mahogany
we would bring into it? / had
rather eat my dinner off the head of a
barrel, or dress after the fashion of
John the Baptist in the wilderness, or
sit on block all my life than consume
all my self before | get home and
take so much pains with the outside
that the inside was as hollow as an
empty nut. Beauty is a great thing,
but beauty of garments, house and fur
niture is very tawdry ornament COM
pared with domestic love. All the
elegance in the world will not make
home, and l would give more for a
spoonful of hearty love than for whole
shiploads of furniture and all the
gorgeousness that the upholsterers Of
the world could gather together

In Barbados.

Vending our way through the midst
of this confusion toward the main part
of the town, we find ourselves suddenly
in Trafalgar Square, the first evidence
of British possession. We take car
riage and inform the driver in our best
Portuguese that he is to show us every
thing of interest in the town. Most of
the streets are paved with kind of
asphalt, having deep cutters on either
side. AS there is scarcely room for two
carriages to pass easily, and as the
drivers all dash along at a reckless pace,
even around the sharp corners, driving
seems TO us rather precarious under
taking here; but we reach the out
skirts of the town without mishap,
after all. Our cocheiro," who sits
with some dignity upon his high perch,
points out various objects of interest,
describing them with degree of
huency which, did he but know it, is
hardly appreciated by his audience; but
we nod nonchalantly and make the
most of such words as are Ineligible to
us. Farther out among the suburbs
there are fine residences, the gardens
overlooking with luxuriance. The En-
glish church, half overgrown with cling
ing vines and surrounded by grove of
beautiful Towering trees, is an attract
i've spot, and the so-called "Queen's
House," the residence of the governor
of the island, with its well-kept park and
brilliant gardens, would be no uniting
habitation for royalty itself. Some of
the villas are very tiny, hardly larger
than toy houses. They are never more
than one story high and are decorated
with painted tiles and kind of white
stucco-work at the top, the whole having
rather picturesque effect. The air is
sweet with the fragrance of roses and
of the many towering shrubs. We
drive beneath the spreading branches

The Evening Lamp.

A newspaper joker says: And
while the lamp holds out to burn there
is no danger of the average servant girl
taking the trouble to fill it," Lamps
are troublesome things. No matter
how perfect they are in the beginning
or how many hundred thousand candle
power the light is warranted to be, the
day will soon come when the lamp-wick
obstinately refuses to be turned up in
an orderly manner. 1t will seem firmly
wedged at one side, while the other
runs up in point, causing WEAKNESS
and veXation of spirit. To overcome
this depravity take a new wick, draw
out single thread near the selvage,
and it will be found quite tractable when
introduced into the burner. The cogs
will take it up properly, and it will APP
pear in good form and give an even
flame when lighted. Exchange.

Cleaning Oil.ClOth.

Never use soap in the water when
cleaning oil-cloth. 1t fades the colors
and breaks up the paint. Ammonia
also is to be avoided, because it gives
the cloth a dull, dead look. If a brush
is used it should be soft one, but it is
better not to use any, except in cases
when the oil-cloth has been long neg
lected or poorly washed for some time
previously. Take clean flannel cloth
and apply clean, warm water, which is
finally to be removed by soaking it up
into the washing-cloth again after it
has been wrung out. The oil-cloth is
then wiped dry with another piece of
clean flannel or coarse crash. After
the oil-cloth has become thoroughly
dry apply to it some warm linseed oil
The housekeeper who tries this for the
first time will probably use too much
and make the cloth so sticky that every
particle of dust will adhere to it. Only
very little is to be used and slightly
rubbed into the cloth, giving it hand
some gloss. The linseed oil will do
more harm than good unless used as
sparingly as indicated. Skim-milk is
used by some in place of oil, and it
gives the cloth beautiful gloss. OF
course an oil-cloth with frequent
washings will look old, and the house
keeper should be cautious about wash
ing when busting will answer just as
well.-ETchange.

great pleasure in being neat and
(some may say) fussy, but order is
heavens first law and there ought to
be heaven in some houses to order
the careless mud-carriers out or sug-
gest means to make them neater. This
can be made still more complete by
taking an old scythe to a blacksmith
and lop the ends over at right angles
and hammer them down flat, cut of the
shank, punch holes through the turned
ends, so as to nail to the doorstep or
to a stay made for it. 1t is set with the
back up, with the sharp corner of the
back from you, and you have a scraper
for doing the heavy business, and the
old broom puts on the finishing touch.
One will see as the broom stands on a
line with the scraper, and, of course,
close by, that where anything is in the
hollow of the boot it can be rubbed
crosswise, and it is all done in an in
slant. - E. p. ChwchiH, IN Eastern

Yankee Clocks.

Some of the papers call Elisha N.
WEIGH, who died at Forestville, Conn. q,
recently, " the original Yankee clock
man." He began, with two employees,
making clocks the day after he became
twenty-one, and when he died, at the
age of seventy-eight, his employees num-
bered 1000 and his estate was esti-
mated at 100000. But the original
Yankee clock man was actually Eli
Terry, who began the manufacture of
clocks, both with wooden and brass
wheels, in Plymouth, Conn, in 1893.
A year before he had constructed the
first clock with wooden wheels ever
made. In 1914 he invented the short
shelf clock" which speedily took the
place of the tall clocks universally used
heretofore. 1t is probably not gener-
ally known that these tall cases were
made for the most part by local cabinet
makers, the clocks which the Yankee
peddlers scattered throughout the
United States being without cases
The baselessness of the old sheer about
" wooden clocks " is proved by the fact
that those with wooden wheels were
usually preferred to the brass-wheel
clocks. Indeed, not few of them are
keeping good time yet. After the in
PRODUCTION of rolled brass into the
market machinery was invented for
stamping out with die blank wheels
and cutting the cogs afterward, and
this made brass clocks cheaper than
wooden ones. Between 1906 and 1915
other clock-making firms arose, one of
the best known being that established
by Seth Thomas, after whom the town
of Thomaston is named. Nearly all the
American clocks are made in a few
small towns in western Connecticut.
The clock men tell with glee a story
about Brooklynite who established a
mandatory and turned out what they
call " "a small BATCH" a hundred gross
or so, before he discovered that they all
went backward Thomas Stevens in
his bicycle tour around the world found
Yankee clocks in all the novels of Asia,
and he thinks fine market could be es-
tablished there for Waterbury watches.
His own elected much admiration, es-
pecially the winding feature.

we notice English officials here and
there in the streets, and the shop win
