HOUSEHOLD.

To Ro4Sr A FILLET OR COLLAR OF
STURGEoS.-Take a piece OF fresh
sturgeon, gut it, take out the bones,
and cut the fieshy part in lengths about
seven or eight inches; then provide
some shrimpS, CHOPPED very small, with
oysters, some crumbs OF bread, and
such seasoning or spice as you Ike,
with little lemon peel, grated; when
this Is done. butter one side or your
fish, and strew some OF your mixture
upon It; then begin to roll it up as close
AS possible; and when the first piece IS
rolled up, then roll Hpon that another,
pre-, ared as before, and bind it round
with a narrow lllet, leaving as much OF
the first apparent as may be; but you
must remark that the roll should not be
above four and a half inches thick. Tor
else one part would be done enough be-
fore the inside was hardly warmed; (;
therefore, we have sometimes par-
boiled the inside roll before we begin to
roll IL; when it Is at the q ce baste 1t
well with butter and dreuge 1t with
sifted raspings OF bread. Serve It with
the same sauce rs directed for the
former.

1t was several minutes before the

the subject his own close study. In re-
gard 70 furnishing water from pipes

Iuestionably be some advantage over

Is the proper way TO do it. 1t would
require less water and the soil would
not be in danger of baking for in

would need be a subsoil, or course, OF
such character as would prevent the
water from going down to Caiua as
fast as it came from the pipes. Upon

Scientists maintain, and generally
succeed in proving, that the germs OF
an epidemic exist In the air which
passes into human lungs. Will science
ever be able to discover the locality
and the nature of the germs that make
possible such epidemics as crimes.
railroad wrecks, fires and the liker 1t
is beyond peridventure that the death
dealing railroad wreck assumes an
epidemic form, and that the advent of
one such is almost certain to be fol-
lowed by another even though the
breadth of an ocean lies between
the spots where derailment
spreads death. So, too, is it
with great fires that for fuel have
human bodies, and with subterranean
explosions that convert coal mines into
hecatombs- They appear In epidemic
form oftener than as Isolated cases.
There would seem to be subtle infiu en-
ces at work in realm as yet unfath-
omed by science, and In this place of
unknown influences shall human
skill and science ever enter? Who

VALUE OF GROUND BONES.-Ihe
intrinsic value OF pure dissolved bones
is frequently made apparent as an in-
gredient In low. grade fertilizers. y lew
hundred pounds are introduced IN a
formula mainly composed or cheap
materials, from the use OF which sur
prIsIugly good but very transltOry re-
suits follow. 1t is the little leaven OF
dissolved bones which has quickened
the mass and given 1t the only vitality
really possessed. Impurities aud for
eign matters akin in color and weight
to dissolved bones cannot be mixed
with them beyond the chances OF DIS
covery any better than they could with
bone meal. Deception can no more be
efTectually practiced with the partially
acid ulatPd bone than with the raw
bone. The sulphuric acid employed N
diSSOlvlng has simply hOney-cOmOed tie
PARTICLES in such state that the
natural action or the SOL ana tue
elements can convert them immedl-
ately into plant food. Bearing these
facts well IN mind. and having the
guarantee OF the manufacturer that
the article is made from raw homes,
that pure sulphuric acid Is employed in
dissOlYing; that u IS not made wholly
or in part of foreign matter, It IS
better for farmers to use strictly pure
dissolved bones than to invest the same
amount of money in substances con-
tanning less phOsphOTlc acid 1t IS uu-
luestIonably the better policy to select
a fertilizer that is ready for Immediate
action, and ore sure to give twoiO!d
quicker return. with an almost equal
reserve store OF rich ingredients for
the benefit OF grass aud hay crops

The ment Il and nervous system is
dependent on food, also the muscles of
the human body are dependent upon it
for proper development. While the
latter requires food containing nitro
gen, the former requires that which
contains phosphorus. At this season
of the year when our boys have close
schoolroom, cold weather and brain
work TO contend with, the cooking and
arransement OF their food is OF great
importance. No person can perform
the same mental labor after break
fast of grlddle cakes and syrup as he
could on a breakfast or oatmeal, meat,
fish and unbolted bread. The principal
of every boarding school should be a
cook and fully competent to direct the
arrangement or food as well as the
arrangement of studies. Growing
boys need plenty of good, wholesome.
plain food, plenty of time to eat 1t and
tune 10 digest IL before studying. II
Is not necessary he should have tender
loln for breakfast or the choicest spring
lamb for dinner, but he should have
good meat, fish end plenty of vegeta-
bles, rice palatably oked, every day d
salad, light sweet bread and butter,
milk and no tea or coffee.

In the report made by Professor Beal
upon his examination OF the Jack
Pine Plains Of Michigan, he says "In
watching the rapid flow of the Au
Sable and the ManIstee passing by the
plains which were thlrsting for water,
u often occurred TO me, Why not turn
the waters on the fields and make them
fertile, instead of using them to float
logs TO the lakesY' A thing 50 easily
done. believe one day will be done
and done with great prcft-not likely
by those owning small farms, but by
those owning land by townships and
sections II We could coutrol the
water on these plains, so they should
not lack for II, We could grow good
crops, and with good crops the soil
would rapidly improve In fertility"

back the teeth of an old file to the

does not merely sharpen them, but

ADJUSTING FOOD TO BBEED.-The
rock ON winch many who enter the
ranks as breeders OF good stock split i5
that of stiuted feeding, says Professor
Cook, of the Michig8n Agricultural
College. The Shropshire, Percheror,
and SnOrthorn owe their excellence to
the fact that they can make good pay
i:g use of a large amount Of food.
Cnless they have the food to WORK
upon, they fail of their function, and
their keeper falls of his expected gains.
IL may be best to half starye the Jersey
in his calfhOOd, but surely II is ruinOus
to thus treat the ShOTthorn or Hereford
The breeders motto should be: keep
all those animals in thrifty, growing
condition from frst To last" Unless
we intend and viii feed literally We
had better keep the scrub. II was
brought up to enjoy rOughiDg &.

THE CORSET AGAIN.-"Eyen when
a corset is not tight enough TO compress
Internal organs" says the London
Hospital, ''it prevents the external
muscles OF the body from acting as
they ought. so that in time they be-
come feeble from want of use, like the
muscles of an arm which has been
bound up In a splint. There are about
seventeen little Joints, too, in the spine,
which are more or less immovably liked
by the wearing OF a stiR whalebone
down the back, so that il is dill cult TO
understand what people mean who in
sist that loose stays can do no barn.
IL a garment that IS fixed over these
fiexible Joints is either tight or stiff, 1t
must do some harm, and II It is neither
one nor the other, it cannot be called a
corset -

y CORRESPONDENT asks for lnstruc-
tion in cleaning and caring for furni-
ture. The following hints from the
Boston Budget may be serviceable:
When cleaning the room thoroughly
II is a good plan to remove the lighter
articles of upholstered furniture into
the air and the heavier ones into another
room in which the windows are opened.
Hair cloth is best cleaned by Leating
with a small switch or rattan, after
ward wiplng with soft CLOTH If 1t Is
old and losing It's color it can be made
10 look almost as good as new by wip-
ing it over with cloth wet In ink.
Plush furniture should be brushed with
a bristle brush. a medium-siZed paint
brush Is Just the thing. Never switch
plush, as it will leave a mark that any
amount Of brushing will not entirely
obhterate. a small paint brush for the
crevices OF the wood work is a necessity
TO keep It in good condition by remov-
Ing the dust. Wipe over the wood
work with soft, damp Goth. and
polish with dry cloth. \ small quantity
OF warmed linseed oil rubbed well into
the wood, and this afterward rubbed
briskly with soft dry cloth, will give
the wood a nice, soft polish"
