MANY USES OF EGGS.
They Arc Said to be Better for Scholars
Brains Than Fish.

Eggs are meal in themselves
Every element that is necessary for the
support Of man Is contained within the
limits Of an egg-shell in the best pro-
portions and most palatable form.
Plain boiled they are wholesome. The
masters Of French cookery, however,
affirm that 1t is easy to dress them in
500 different ways, each method not
economical, but salutary in the highest
degree.
No honest appetite ever rejected an
egg In some guise. 1t is nutriment in
most concentrated shape. Whole ma
tons Of mankind rarely touch any
other animal food. Kings eat them
plain as readily as do the humble
tEadesmen. After the battle OF Muhi-
dorf, when Kaiser Ludwid sat at "A
meal with his burggrafs aud great can
tains, he determined on piece OF
luxury-ssone egg to every man and
two to the eXcellently valiant S:hewp-
perman."
Far more than iish-for it is Il watery
diet-eggs are the scbolar's fare. They
contain phosphorus, which Is brain
food, and sulpur, which performs va
riety Of functions in the economy. Aud
they are the best Of nutriment for
children, for in u compact form they
contain everything that is necessary
to the growth Of the youthful frame.
Eggs are, however, not ouly food
they are medicine also. The white is

PARABLE coNcEKNING A SNAKE.

A farmer once found a rattlesnake.
Having caught it and put it in a bag be
carried it home, and called his n~eighbors
together, saying:
'Behold, | have captured a snake, and
it is big and strong; now. what shall do
With it?''
Then one of the men said:
'sThis is a very harmless looking reptile.
think he might be allowed TO go wher-
ever he pleases.
Another said:
My friend, do yoR o know that this
harmless looking serpent has a sting?
Now, therefore, / move that all people,
and especially young people, be warned
faithfully to keep out of the way Of the
serpent, lest they be bitten.
This counsel seemed to impress the as
sembly favorably.
Then a third speaker began in this wise:
'sSince the bite of this reptile is so very
dangerous, | would submit that it might
be we'll TO make certain rules and regula-
tions; as, for instance, that he is not to go
abroad on the day that is called Sunday;
and that he must not be allowed to sting
anybody who is not Of age; moreover, that
he shall not be let out from his cage at
all until a council of citizens shall so de-
eide"
"And finally" said this wise aud
thoughtful man, Il suggest that an oath
be administered to our neighbor the keeper
of the snake, that he will faithfully carry
out all these provisions
Now it came to pass that all the neigh
bors were so moved with these words that
with one voice they cried out
$50 let it be-" and so the snake still
lives.

GOOD CRUEL.

There are times when cruel is about the
only fare allowed the invalid by the physi-
clan. When things come to this strait, it
is fortunate for the patient if some one in
the house happens to know how to make
table in this manner: Wet two tablespoon
fuls of the meal to a smooth paste with
cold water, and stir it into one pint Of boil
ing water. Stir occasionally while over the
fire, and let it boil half an hour. Be very
careful not TO let it seorch. IL it becomes
too thick, add more water. Season with salt.
sugar, lemon juice and grated nutmeg. A
tiny piece of butter is an improvement, il
it is not forbidden.

THE TRAILING ARBUTUs.

The continued cool weather has hSd the
effect of setting back this years wild flow
ers beyond the usual time. They are,
however, making their appearance now in
all their wonted freshness and beauty.
Among them all there is none more beau
tiful or a more general favorite among
lovers of flowers than the trailing arbutus.
This plant, when in full bloom, as it is at
the present time, is one of the most lovely
objects in. nature. 1t is a native of North
America and is found all along the Allie
gheny chain of mountains from Canada to
Alabama. The early pilgrims in Massa-
chusetts first discovered it and named it the
M~ayhower, but this name has been lost,
and among botanists the proper designa-
tion is epigea repens. 1t has always resisted
cultivation, seeming never to thrive so

generally to be found modestly hiding its
blossoms under the laurel bushes. No
specimens, so far as known, have ever been
observed outside Of the region of the Allie

specimens of this delicate and lovely flow
er are TO be found in the pine barrens of

in all its native luxurianoe. Much of it
also is to found up around Palmyra and at

CELLAR

These are dismal places. Necessary, no
doubt. in the crowded city. where land
sells by the square inch; but why should
they ever be used in the country? They
necessitate such going mp and down stairs,
such long and weary absence from the liv-
ing rooms, such breathing of ground air.
A cellar kitchen cannot, in the nature OF
things, be the ~pleasantest room in the
house, as that room ought to be where the
mistress of the house spends most of the
time, and 'the girl" is in the kitchen, the
girl cannot have a very cheerful time OF it.
The surroundings and out-looks are de-
pressing, and she becomes discouraged,
and wants to be s'Out'' all she an. In
cities, where dining room and kitchen are
in the basement, with a cellar under both,
of course. matters are different, but even
then. they might be more cheerful. Cir
cumstanees may reconcile one to such a
domicile, but it is by NJ means the ideal.
In the country one can reject the basement
kitchen altogether, and insist oil having
his engine-room of the household ON a
level with the other living rooms. One
reason that our g~randmothers were such
good cooks, and made everything SO sayory
and wholesome, WAS that they lived in
their kitchens, and made them also dining
and reception rooms. If there is a domes-
tic, the mistress can keep far better over
sight Of her methods and managent if she
is on the same floor with her, and thus
have an eye and an ear in such a position
that she may know al any time what is
going on.

MILK AS FOOD.
IL ts Only Beneficial Under Certain Com
ditiOns.

w
"Many people who like milk cannot
drink it. Why is this so, when it is almost
a perfect food? like it as a drink, but
even a small quantity on oatmeal disagrees
with me, seems to paralsze the action of
the liver" So writes a correspondent
from Kentucky.
There is no doubt that milk is an almost
perfect food; for infants it is absolutely
perfect, and the fact that they are restricted
to it as their only food attests the voice of
nature and of natures God in the case.
Moreover, the experience of all time and of
all chimes, as well as the most careful in
vestigations Of science fully confirm the
statement.
But why should such a food prove harm
full TO any person? We might explain it
by individual popularity were not the cases
Of the kind too numerous to be merely Gu
rious exceptions.
1t is well known that while the milk of a
healthy woman never ~disagrees with a
healthy child, that child cannot be fed with
cows milk without peril. Indeed, most
cases of cholera infantum are among the
bottle-fed, and a babe suffering from this
disease will generally recover at once il it
can have a more natural nourishment.
One important difficulty with cow milk
for infants is-partly from its nature and
partly from the freer and more copious
draughts with which it is taken into the
stomach-it tends to coagulate into large
masses of solid cheese. This is thrown in
sour Jumps into the bowels, and keeps them
in a state of perpetual irritation.
Now lime-water added to the milk-say
one part in five or six-prevents this coag-
%ulation, and if other hygienie conditions
are right, the danger of cholera infantum is
very much diminished.
But there is a singular difference between
the infant and the adult in the effect of the
milk. In the child it tends to increase IN
duly the intestinal action; in the adult to
lessen it. The explanation is simple, but
need not be given here.
But this is not all. Adults suffer Ike
children in some cases, from a failure to
digest milk. In weak stomachs, inclined
to aeidity, the milk coagulates into solid
masses, ferments, and i~rritates the stomach
and the liver. 1t copgests the liver and
thus diminishes the flow OF bile ind pro-
duces a condition akin to what is called
''bil:onsness."
The remedy is twofold. First. mix the
milk with lime-water, two or three table
spoonfais TO a tumblerful. This quantity
will not be noticed in the taste.
Second, take special pains to keep up the
intestinal action by means of appropriate
food, such as whole wheat flour and oat-
meal, by a free use of fruits, by sufficient
exercise, especially in all sedentary EN-
Payments, and by whatever helps to keep
the general system in a state Of vigorous
health.-YoutA's Companion

Worry. says Good Housekeeping, is the
cause OF more trouble than any other one
thing, not excepting alcohol, for it leads
men TO murder, suicide, embezzlement, in
sanity, drink, family arrangements, quar-
reis and business difficulties. Worried
people cannot make good bargains, their
judgments become so warped or twisted,
through dwelling too long on the same
subject, that they are no clearer at the end
OF their thinking than they were at the
beginning. There are multitndes os deaths
every year. attributed to regular specific
diseases, as typhoid fever, dyspepsia, con-
sumption and heart disease. which have
Tor their canse worry. Worry induces such
a condition Of body that II readily resolves
