USEFUL. AND SUGGESTIVE.

Fail not to take full respirations.
Deep breathing is one Of iife's strong
holds, and pure air is free.
Southern Chicken Stew.-Cut up
two young chickens, put in saucepan,
with boiling water to cover we'll, and let
simmer slowly; when nearly done slice
two or three raw potatoes, and put in,
let cook until done, and thiclsen the
stew with q tablespoonful of flour and
butter, mix together season with pep
per and salt..-N. Y. Observer.
French Cake.-Broak two eggs in a
cup pour in one largo tablespoon of
melted buttcr and fill tho cup with
sweet milk; have ready one and one
half cups of flour with ono teaspoon OF
baking-powdor sifted together; add one
cup of sugar and flavor with lemon; stir
all torether and bake Immediately in
hot oven.--llomo and Farm.
The timo of sleep is Of no particular
consequence, and is largely matter OF
habit. Neither is there any particular
hygiontic virtue in early rising. Tho
familiar old couplct is only true in q
very general sense, and there arc great
many cases whore man would be health
ier wealthier and wiser If he delayed
tho timo of his rising to an hour con-
sistant with his own feelings and in
clinations. Health.
Feather Cream.-Ono pint of whip
ped cream, whites of three eggs beaten
to q stiff froth, one cupful of powdered
sugar, one teaspoonful of vanilla, any
flavoring desirod prepare this dish only
short time before it will be required
for tho table; whip tho cream, frothed
eggs, sugar and flavoring in bowl sur
rounded by cracked ice, thon heap it in
glass dish; keep on ice until sent to
tho table; servo with sponge caie.-Bos-
ton Herald.
"A cure for squirting, which is not
so unsightly as the method at present
generally adopted-black goggles with
hole in the center--is highly recon-
mended. Let the person afflicted take
any pair of spectacles that suit his sight,
or even plain glass, and in tho center OF
one lens let him glue small blue or
black wafer about the size of ten-cent
piece. The result is that the double
image vanishes, and the eye, without
fatigue or heat, is forced to look
straight, and with time and patience is
cured.
Ham Salad for Lunch This is n
good dish to utilize the small scraps re-
manning of boiled or baked ham that can
not be nicely sliced. Chop fine one pint OF
ham with one pint of bread crumbs
(white bread), moisten with milk (about
teacupful. possibly little moro)' add
teaspoonful of dry mustard and littlo
pepper, put into n saucepan and thor
oughly heat. just before sending to the
table, turn onto small platter and sllcc
one or two hard boiled eggs as garnish
over 1t. Serve hot for lunch or tea

a LOST OPPORTUNITY.
Why tho Mar with the Gun Would NJ
Speak for Three Hours.

Why tho Mar with the Gun Would Not
Speak for Three Hours.
Six men of us had come out OF the
mines in Montana to take train for the
East, but the train we intended to take
met with an accident and was several
hours late. The station was small one,
the weather very bad, and after awhile
one OF the party went to the agent, who
was also the telegraph operator, and
asked how long before we might expect
the train.
Dunno" was the brief reply.
"You don't! Well, then, find out''
exclaimed the other.
"When | do I'll let you know"
"Oh, you will, eh? Now, then, You
ask Roscnburg if the train has left there
yet"
"I'll be hanged If dol"
One man out with his gun and was
going to shoot, but two or three OF us
drew him away and talked to him, and
finally cooled him off. The most solid
argument we advanced was that if he
killed the operator we could get no
news of tho train, and would be even
worse off than we were. This argument
was what decided MN, ana HVe hours
later the train came along and we got
aboard. We were all seated together
and had got fair start when some one
observed.
"That operator had narrow es-
cape"
''Yes, / meant to shoot him." replied
the man who had pulled his gun, "but
these gentleman argued that in case /
did we could not hear from the train at
all"
"Thunder!" gasped third. why,
I'm an old operator myself, and had you
shot him / was ready to locate that
train in five minutes"
''Then may be teetotally kicked to
death by jackass rabbits, groaned the
would-be slayer, and he leaned back and
nurscd his disappointment, and would
not speak to any Of us for the nextth
hours-N. Y. sun.
