NEW YORK, July 6.-The stock market was
very quiet to day, and trusts retired further from
the position they go lately occupied in dealings,
while in railroad stocks there was nothing doing
outside the Grangers. The market was very lame,
but there was an improved trade in the room and
prices generally u to u per cent higher than last
evenings figures, with Lake Shore leading in the
advance. There was great disinolinstion to ope
rate, however, pending irther developments in
railroads, and even they were doing little in the
market The market finally closed dull and heavy
and weak at about the lowest prices Of the ees-
sion.
Railroad bonds were stagnant to-day. The tone
of dealings was ra her steady to firm, but changes

A good way to clean an iron sink is to
rub well with wet cloth in kerosene
oil.
To keep tinware nice and bright, scour
it every two or three weeks with finely
sifted coal ashes.
Strong brine may be used to advantage
in washing bedsteads. Hot alum water
is also recommended for this purpose.
If your dishes must be washed in hard
water, add little milk to the water and
do without soap. Try this and see if you
don't like it,
Soiled coat collars can be rubbed with
ammonia, and then woolen cloth laid
over and hot t1at iron held just over the
cloth to steam it without pressing.
Carpets should be thoroughly beaten
on the wrong side first, and then on the
right side, SO as to leave it fresh. Spots
may be removed by the use of OK gall or
ammonia and water. ..
If your fiat irons trouble you, by drop
ping black specks from the top or sides
when ironing, take them in pan of
soapsuds and give them a thorough wash
ing and dry quickly to prevent rusting.
In cleaning oil cloths use no soap, or
scrubbing brush; but wash off the dirt
with water and flannel. Then go over
with milk, and rub with soft brush till
dry and shiniag.-HouseaoJe.

HOUSEHOLD AFFAIRS.
BREAD FRITTERs.

Soak two cupfuls of stale bread
crumbled into bits over night in a pint
of milk. In the morning add two beaten
eggs, and as much -four as will make the
batter drop from a spoon. Sift little
baking powder through the -four. These
may be made thin like pancakes if you
prefer, in which case add a handful of
cerealine or Indian meal. Serve these
with link sausages that have been split
and broiled. This is an unusual way of
cooking sausages, but it deserves to be
better known. They are more digestible,
and quite free from fat. A few drops of
orange juice sprinkled over them is de-
licious addition. AgricultuTist.

ART OF COOKING FISH.

Fish must be fresh and thoroughly
cooked It must be washed, wrapped in
a salted cloth and put IN cool place un-
til wanted. Never put it in the ice chest
to impair the milk and butter. It should
be baked or boiled. Salmon is the only
fish that is not rendered tasteless by boil
ing, for the reason that it is richer than
oil others in oils and juices. All kinds
OF fish are improved by the addition of
vinegar or lemon juice to the stuffing, or
to the water in which they are boiled, or
they may be simply rubbed over with the
acid before boiling or baking. The acid
counteracts the excess of alkali always
found in fish. If they are to be broiled
the broiler must be rubbed with fat, to
prevent sticking, and the fish turned Of
ten to prevent burning. If they are to
be baked they can be lifted from the pan
without breaking, if a strip of cloth is
put under them, across the pan. The
cloth to be of cotton and to be rubbed
with fat to prevent sticking.
Sailed fish, like salted meat, has lost
its nourishment, and is only serviceable
as relish. The varieties of fish balls,
croquettes, and other similar prepara-
tions, are of value only on account of the
vegetables, eggs, milk and butter which
they contain.
Shell fish, namely oysters and clans,
are most easily procured, and the most
healthful of this variety of food. If
oysters are to be cooked, they must first
be washed and drained. If the liquor,
that always accompanies oysters, is to be
used, it must be strained and cooked first,
and carefully SKINNED before the oysters
are added. When the edges of the oysters
begin to curl they are done. Both oysters
and CLANS are most nutritious when
slightly cooked. .-Deh0it Free Press.

The Angora Goat Industry.

Texas is the home of Angora goat in
dustry u this country, but these goats,
are coming more and more into notice in
other States and sections, and their hardi-
ness and fieece-producing value are at
tracting much attention to the breed.
They will endure great vicissitudes of dry
heat and cold and are remarkably useful
IN clearing off brush pastures, thriving in
hesh and fleece on the diet of twigs and
shrubs. They are raised principally for
the fleece Of mohair, but the flesh Of the
young animals has been experimental
with in the Chicago markets and favor
able verdict of its value as mutton has
been given. .-NeD YorL Observer.

Buen0S Ayres.

On entering Buenos Ayres from the pier
one can hardly realize that it is the chief
city of South America, and one of the
most flourishing places in the world. The
streets are narrow and badly paved, holes
several feet deep being not uncommon,
and the houses are mostly only ground
floor; some have one upper story, but
very few have two. However, it i'm
proves on nearer acquaintance. The
streets, though not wide, are straight and
uniform, and far better than those of Sc
vile, Cadiz, and a great many other i'm
portant European cities, and between the
shanties which still exist in many of the
principal streets are edifces which would
not disgrace the best parts of London or
Paris. Indeed, several we'll Eng
lish and French firms have branch estab.
lishments here quite equal in style to their
head offices. Buenos Ayres is the most
European looking city of South America,
yet it is far from being English in ap-
pearance; / should rather describe it as
'Mediterranean, " thought would be diff
cult to say whether it is more Spanish,
Provencal, or Italian. The great major
ity of the working classes are Italians, and
the, inscriptions on all the shops near the
water are in that language. But on ad-
vancing into the town, one hears quite as
much English, German and French spoken
as Spanish or Italian; and English book
sellers, German Bierhallen and French
hotels abound. The restaurants are al
mostall French, from establishments equal
to the best on the Paris boulevards down
to estaminets, whose chief ,delicacies are
sauerkraut and snails. Every nations
tastes are consulted. The Marseillaise can
get bouillabaisse, the Neapolitan ravioli
and macaroni, made and cooked by his
fellow-countrymen, and an Engllshman
has better chance Of good cut Of roast
beef than he would have in many Euro
pean towns. London Globe. lass

BANANA PUDDING

This is my recipe for banana pudding +.
Three bananas, if large; four, if small !;
four tablespoonsfuls of granulated tapi-
Oca; three of sugar; a pinch of salt; a
pint and half of water. Let it cook un-
til it looks clear Qike boiled starch).
Have ready your pudding dish. use a
crystal sauce dish, as the pudding looks
SO pretty in it. Wet it in cold water, so
as not to break the dish with the hot tapi-
Oca. Put layer of the tapioca an inch
thick over the bottom of the pudding
dish; then slice thin layer of the ba-
nanas, then another of tapioca and so on ;
have the tapioca for the top of the dish, or
last layer; serve with cream, or if one
likes to be at the trouble and time, whip
some of the cream and put on the top of
the pudding. think any one will say it
is delicious pudding. l have friends
who never eat bananas that are fond of
them in this form. New York 0bse,ver.

st. Louis Creeping Away From the Mis-.
sisSiDDi River.

Few people have ever stopped to think
that the city is gradually, but surely,
creeping away from the river. The ten
dency is altogether westward, and in
short while the Mississippi River, which
made st. Louis the great city that she is,
will be left far behind. Even the ware
houses are yielding to the popular ten
dency, and are moving toward Fourth
street, leaving nothing but sheds and
dives on the Levee. The steamboat bust
ness was given d great blow when the rail
roads came into general use. The bust,
ness has been gradually falling off ever
since, and now, on accountof the tendency
Of the population, it will go down hill
faster than ever.--St. Louis Star Sayings.

three days. Her sister one time lay in
trance for seven days, and she said that
after his exertion in Scotland at the rail-
way accident her son lay in trance for
three weeks.
For the last year Bishop had performed
mainly in the West. In Minneapolis, a
few months ago.. while performing the
feat of driving through the city blind
folded in search of hidden needle, the
horses collided with post, as he had be-
come helpless and had dropped the reins.
He continued the search and succeeded in
finding the needle after much suffering
and exertion. Immediately after he fell
in cataleptic fit and lay for some time in
a trance.-New York Journal.
