To make good soup, says the Detroit
Bree Press, requires the judicious blend
ing of the different favors so that moth
ing shall predominant. Always remove
the scum before the soup boils, or 1t viii
not become clear even when strained, no
matter how fine strainer is used. Sim
mer slowly, for if allowed to boil quickly
the goodness Of the meat cannot be ex-
tracted. Put the meat on in cold water
and allow two tablespoonful of salt to
each gallon of water. From pint and
a half to quart Of water to every pound
of meat will make good soup. When
adding water after the boiling has COM
menced always use water of the some
temperature. Excellent soup stock can be
made as follows: Take a leg orshin of beef
weighing eight pounds, saw the bone in
three parts and remove the marrow. Put
into kettle with four quarts of water
and let it simmer. Put the marrow into
a saucepan with pound of lean ham cut
in small pieces; fry a good brown, then
add to the meat bone and let it simmer
five hours. Strain and set away to cool.
When cold remove the fat and pour it

CARE OF SILVER.

Silver articles, when not in use, should
be kept in prepared cotton-fannel bags
to protect them from the sulphureted
hydrogen of furnace and illuminating
gas. They should be kept in dry place,
and if likely to remain there a long time,
the silver should be perfectly clean, and
the bags closely wrapped in stout paper
For daily care of silver it is best to use
hot water, CASTLE soap and stiff brush
and chamois leather. Gliding ought to
be rubbed as little as possible, and silver
etched, decorated with colored alloys, OF
oxidized, can be kept in condition by
rubbing with damp linen cloth with
very little plate powder.-Rural Rane.

1t is said that Mr. Spurgeon is in the habit
OF testing the abilities of the more promising

them 20 go up into the pulpit with sealed
envelope in their hands containing the text
of their address. On one of the occasions

your own personal qualifications and call"
And he delivered himself in the following
way; MY brethren, the subj ct on
which l have to address you to
day is a comparison between Zaccheus and
my own qualifications. Well, the first thing
that we read about Zaccheus was that he
was small Of stature, and 1 never felt so

BenziDe will kill thsm, but this fluid is
explosive and inhammable, and is TO be
handled with care. To avoid this house
hold pest the carpets should not lie close
to the walls, but space Of a few inches
should be left lIaround the border, Sc
that the edge can be turned up and swept
frequently. The crevices in the floor
should be filed with plaster or with putty,
so that no hiding places are left for the
insects. It is quite possible, and per.
haps probable, that this insect has come
for a good purpose, viz, to get rid of the
unhealthful practice of using dusty
carpets constantly on the floors I'M

dwelling is filed with injurious dust and
the throat and lungs become dis

RELIGIOUS READING.
GOOD FOR EVIL.

When on fragrant sandal tree
The woodlands axe descends,
And she who bloomed so beauteously
Beneath the weapon bends,
E en- on the edge that wrought her death,
Dying she breathes her sweetest breath,
As il to token in her fall
Peace TO her foes and love to all.
How hardly man this lesson learns:
To smile and bless the hand that spurns
To see the blow, to feel the pain,
And render only love againi
One had it, but He came from Heaven,
Reviled, rejected and betrayed,
No curse He breathed no plant he made,
But when in deaths dark pang He sighed,
Prayed for His murderers, and died.
