IMPROVING LAND.

Nature is always slow, says the Amer5-
can Farmer. Only man is in a hurry.
Whoever talks about improving land in
the natural way talks nonsense. 1t took
nature some thousands of years, more or
less, to produce the virgin soil that the
people of this country have been exhaust
ing. When it is exhausted what is to be
done? Nature will do it if given time
enough, but it may take a few hundred
or even a thousand years to restore old
conditions. Mar can do this in much less
time, and with mankind time is money.
Therefore, the agricultural waysi is cheaper,
as well as better, han natures way. By
heavy manuring the market gardener
makes land far more productive than it
was in its original virgin fertility. In
other words, man excels nature when it
comes t. Improving a soil.

CHOCOLATE.

A friend who is famous for her delicious
chocolate, says she never CRATES chocolate.
Two or three hours before she wishes to
make it she puts the chocolate in a bowl
with half a cup of boiling water, and sets
it on the back of the range to melt. Use
equal qualities of milk and water, and
two squares Of chocolate to a quart. When
the chocolate is melted, stir it to smooth
paste; have the milk milk and water boil
ing, and add the paste gradually. Let it
boil about five minutes, stirring it all the
time; add a tablespoonful of sugar and
ten drops of vanilla. Serve as soon as
possible with a spoonful of whipped cream
on the top of each cup. Do not let choco-
late stand uncovered tor a single minute
after it is done.-Fdr.m and Home.

HONEYMOON REALM.

Home is the habitate of woman. In
the home, all that is Enthusiastically
feminine in woman unfolds and fourishes.
Home without woman is a misnomer, for
woman makes the home, and home is
what she makes it. If she is illiterate,
her home pertakes of this quality; if she
is immoral, her home cannot be the Adobe
of virtue; if she is coarse, refinement does
not dwell where she resides. If she is
cultured, pure, refined, these qualities
will characterize the home which she
creates. The higher the degree of her
culture, her purity, her refinement, the
more will these qualities characterize the
home of which she IS the center. The
self that a woman takes with her in her
marriage is her real dover. fiber dover
can be reckoned in numerals only, no
matter how many they may be, wrecked
indeed will be her husband, impoverished
her children. But if she possess industry,
gentleness, self abnegation, purity, intel
ligence, combined with capability, she is
in herself a treasure of treasures.-Amer-
lean A~griculturist.

THE USE OF

There was an interesting discussion be-
fore the Section of Larynology and Rhi-
nology of the New York Academy of
Medicine last night concerning the mis-
uses OF cocaine. DR.. W. Fl. Holbrook
Curtis read the Introductory paper, which
dealt with a large number of cases where
the use of cocaine in a local way had
affected the entire system of the patient.
His compilation of cases included Europe
as well as this continent, and went back
to the date when the remarkable drug
was discovered by DR.. Karl Kohler, in
Vienna. The fact that DR.. Kohler was
present at the discussion and took part in
it lent an additional interest to the meet
ing.
DR.. Kohler said that he made it a 1ule
OF his practice lev 10 prescribe cocaine.
Whenever l use it." he continued. at
administer it myself, and then the patient
cannot secure more of it by merely re-
filling the prescription. I make il a rule
to use much more than 5 per cent
solution, because lind the results achieved
quite as good as though I had used a 40
per cent. solution-it only requires a little
more time. In simultaneous Injections a
much weaker solution should be used 3
per cent. being quite effective."-N z

Here is a letter from Dickens, addressed
to his younger sons on their leaving home,
n for Cambridge, the. other for Aus
tralia, in which the fathers heart and the
deeper side of his nature reveal them
selves:
"You well remember" he says to both,
"that you have never at home been
wearied about religious o~bservances or
mere formalities. You will therefore I'M
derstand the better hat | now most
solemnly impress upon you the truth and
beauty of the Christian religion, as it
comes from Christ himself, and the i'm

humbly, but heartily, respect it. Sin ilarly
I impress you the habit of saying a Chris
tan prayer night and morning. These
things have stood by me through my life,
and remember that I tried to render the
New Testament ineligible to you and
lovable to you when you were a mere

Just think of it! Moss on the vessel tina
The water 1 drank in the days called to

Ere 7 knew what professors and scientists

Tho rotten wood fiber, the oxide of iron,
The algiB, the frog of unusual size,
The water impure as the verses of Byron,
Are the things l remember with tears III my
And to tell the sad truth, though I shudder to

And often at noon when 1 went there to drink
enioyed it as much as 1 now enjoy beer.
How ardent l seized, with hands that were

And quick to the undiscovered bottom it

Then reeking with nitrates and ~cltrates, and

With matter organic it rose from the we'll.

HINTS TO H-OUsEKEEPERS.

A dampened cloth is better than a dry
one for busting furniture.
Ripe tomatoes will remove ink stains
from white clothes, and also from the
hands.
A small toy broom is handler for clean
ing up dirt around a stove than a large
broom.
To arrest hiccough, close both ears with
the fingers with pressure, while a few
swallows of liquid are taken.
Never. put potatoes on the table in a
covered dish. They will reabsorb their
own moisture and become soggy.
A ring or two of onion added to
tomatoes when they are put on to stew
improves the flavor to some tastes.
Coughs may be much alleviated and dry
threats cured by glycerine and lemon
juice taken at night. The glycerine
should be diluted.
A small box filled with lime, and placed
on a shelf in the pantry or closet, will alb
sorb dampness and keep the air in the
closet dry and sweet.
Delicious sandwiches and cheap ones
can be made by mincing fine, rare beef
steak. Season only with pepper and salt.
These are excellent for invalids.
Table lineu should be hemmed by hand.
Not only does it look more dainty, but
there is never a streak Of DIRT under the
edge after being laundried as with ma
chine sewing.
When painting the base board to a
room, it is a good plan to paint two or
three inches Of the floor also. Then if
the carpet does not quite cover the floor,
the gap is not so noticeable.
Try a bandage of hot salt outside the
face for neuralgia; fill the mouth with
hot salt in case of toothache; put a little
hot salt IN a piece of muslin, and then put
it in the ear for a second or two when
earache is troublesome.
If the material is Washable at all, black
dye can practically be rendered a fast
color by the help of the salt water bath
before the general washing is commenced
upon. After such a treatment faded
black caused by washing will never oc-
cur.
White merino underclothing, when past
wearing, makes excellent wash-rags and
cleaning-cloths, and nothing makes better
holders for either ironing or use about
the stove than cast-off woollen hosiery
covered with thick drilling. It is a good
plan to make the covers for iron-hoiders
of white drilling in the form of a bag. than
they can be slipped off and washed when
soiled.
Before you begin to mix the griddle
cakes grease the pans and leave them TO
heat. They should be very hot before
pouring in the mixture, which should not
be allowed to stand after it is ready. The
oven, too, must be hot, as all these things
need to be baked quickly, as well as
beaten hard. Have ready, always, a hot
plate to put them on, so that they will not
fall by a too sudden change of tempera-
ture.
If the chimney catches fire run to the
salt box, and empty it out upon the
flames; they will be reduced as if by
magic, and further steps can be taken to
subdue the outbreak. IF SCOT falls upon
the carpet or rug, do not attempt to sweep
until it has been covered thickly with dry
salt; 1t can then be swept up properly.
and not a stain or smear will be left. If
anything happens to catch fire, either
whilst cooking or otherwise, throw salt
upon it at once to prevent any disagree
able smell.

ing calls they have a little gentle re-
minder in their hands that they must not
overstay their welcome. Watches SEA in
this way in card cases and pocketbooks
are much more popular than the bracelet
watch attachment. The novelty was i'm
ported from Paris, but is now being
manufactured very largely in this country.
The cost of these card cases and pocket
books is from $3.50 up.
