"The spread of diphthera which has
been so great lately" remarked a West
Side physician, sis largely attributed to
"a carelessness that is criminal when the
virulent nature of the dstemper is con
sldered. 1t is the experience of most
/ physicians that almost all sickness comes
| from the ignorance or willful careless
ness of the people, but in no case is this
/ so bad as in that of diphtheria, because
/ of its extremely infectious character.
| Once dipltheria is known to exist the
| greatest precaution should be taken to
prevent its spread, but instead of that
nothing is done until all the children in
q whole tenement house. or in fact in a
whole block, are infected, or at least en-
dangered, as was the case down on
Tenth avenue lately.
Pet animals are a common and con-
slant source of the spread of this dstem-
per. Cats and dogs are permitted to be
around and even 10 drink the milk left
by child suffering from diphtheria.
These animals take the disease and then
go out and spread it among their fellow
animals, which in turn carry it into the
houses where they belong have known
several cases where a cat caught it in
this manner and infected all the cats in
the neighbOrhood, and was the cause of
numbers of deaths of human beings, for
children will play with cats and pet
them if they appear sick. When in that
condition a cat or other ret animal is
more inclined than at other times to
crawl up on people to get sympathy, and
this makes the danger all the greater.
A remarkable case of this kind occurred
in my own house a few years ago. A
little girl residing in the house con-
tracted scarlet fever and died. During
her illness a pet alligator was around,
and soon after the child's death the ami
nal took sick and also died. A couple
of medical students who were stopping
in the house made post mOrtem exami-
nation of the alligator and found all the
symptoms of death from scarlet fever.
made an examination myself and there
was no doubt whatever that the creature
had caught the fever from the child, and
had died of it. / know of no more pro.
life agency in the spread of diseases OF
this kind than the household pets-the
dogs and cats-of which some people
are so fond. ."--Nelo Y0rt Mercury.

all. He placed Miss Trumbulrs hand

"Welll" he said, simply.
Miss Trumbull put her fan to her lips.
There was silence for n space.

They laughed together, somewhat
shyly.

Window Gardening.

Hardy bulbs can be relied on for flow
ering. Hyacinths are among the most
desirable for window culture. They re
quire free, dry and somewhat rich soil,
and may be set singly in very small pots,
or in groups of three or more in pots of
proportionate size. In planting make a
cavity in the earth half the depth of the
bulb, bury lightly, then press firmly down
till it is nearly covered. The Dutch va
rieties have large flowers, red white,
blue or yellow; the single are larger and
richer than the double. The easiest
grown are the white ! oman. Its flowers
are single and somewhat smaller than
the Dutch; this is a profuse bloomer and
sweetly fragrant. Tulips in all single
varieties are good for house culture, and
lavishly repay the little care they d.
mand. The great variety of coors, in b.
tense bnlliancy and lovely shading
make them delight to all eyes. White
narcissus, bearing small cup-shaped
clusters of flowers, deliciously fragrant,
is valuable for winter blooming, as also
are the double Roman and colored sorts.
Anemone fulgens is the best anemone,
bearing multitude of rich vermilion
blossoms. The foliage of all this class
is very ornamental. Sturdy Oat.

YESTERDAY.

How to Roast Meats.


Good beef should have a bright red
color not too dark, dry and tender to
the touch, fat and with smooth open
grain.
In roasting meats one of the principal
points is to have it as juicy as possible.
Wash the meat in cold water, wipe
dry, SINCE with n hot iron, then place in
a dripping pan; cover the top with a
layer of suet one-half inch thick; add
drippings to the pan until one inch
deep, the pan should be at least four
inches deep; place in hot oven and
slightly increase the heat until done
allow thirty minutes for first pound
and fifteen minutes for each additional
pound. When done remove to a hot
plate. Add one cup of hot water to the
pan, after draining off the drippings,
let boil two or three minutes; then
thicken with one tablespoonful of but
ter mixed with one of flour; add white
pepper and salt to taste. Mushrooms,
oysters, chopped pickles or any favor
can be added to this gravy. Another
way is to wash, place in dripping pan,
add one cup of hot water and place at
once in hot oven, turn often until
nicely Drowned on all sides; remove to
a hot platter, pour the drippings off, add
one cup of sweet milk, let boil one
minute, thicken with one tablespoonful
of flour and one of butter, let boil one
or two minutes, then add salt, white
pepper and cinnamon. 1t is then ready
TO serve. A French way OF roasting
beef is TO take q s.rloin roast, mix salt,
pepper, cinnamon and cloves together,
then with narrow. bladed knife make
incisions about one inch deep on all sides
of the meat; put little of the spice in
each with a small slice of garlic. Roast
according to the directions given above.

To Tell the Age of Eggs.

I We recommend the following process,
for finding out the age of eggs, and dis
! itinguishing those that are fresh from
those that are not. This method is based
upon the decrease in the density of eggs
as the grow old;
Dissolve two ounces of kitchen salt in
q pint of water. When fresh laid egg
is placed in this solution it will descend
to the bottom of the vessel, while one
that has been laid on the day previous
will not quite reach the bottom. If the
egg be three days old it will swim in the
liquid, and if it be more than three days
old it will float on the surface, and pro-
ject above the latter more and more in
proportion as it is older.-The Hen.

THE MAIDEN.

There's poem in the lily
With its lowly- blending head;
There's a poem in the sunset
With its brilliant tinge of red;
There's a poem in the forest,
In the lofty mountain wall;
But the poem Of the maiden
Is the sweetest OF them all.
She is tall or she is slender
With the lily's face OF white;
She is lovely as the painting
Made by sunsets rosy light;
She is noble as the forest,
As the lofty mountain wall;
All, the maiden. of all nature;
Is the sweetest gem Of ALI
Let the cynic rant on fashion
And its catalogue Of whims;
Let him tell of the flirtations
At the church between the hymns;
Let him point at coquettes' costumes
In the operatic stall,
Yet, the maiden, Notwithstanding,
Is the sweetest gem Of all.
