Who knows how to make cracker
crullersP In dearth of dread, when
Bridget has kicked over the traces, or
mother is sick, or Aunt Sarah with her
large family has unexpectedly arrived,
try this experiment for a side dish to
balance the plate of biscuit on the 9th
er side of the table. Split common
white crackers. Prepare a bowl of
cold water with trifie of salt dissolved
in it. Soak the divided crackers, one
or two at time, in the cold water,
while the spider is heating on the stove
and small lump of butter melting
within it. When the crackers are
partly swollen and are tender through
out, drain them quickly from the cold
water, and lay them in the spider,
there to sputter and brown on both
sides. Serve neatly piled in a hot
plate, and add more butter while eat
ing, if the palate demands.
Pear pies are articles not known as
familiarly as they should be. Unripe
pears should not be used; but when
those of any variety are nearly mellow
enough to eat, then prepare a crust
and line pie-plates as for apple pies
The pears must be cored and sliced;
they need not be pared unless the skin
is leathery. Sweeten moderately, dot
with butter and add very little cold
water, according to the juiciness of the
fruit. Use no spice. Be sure that the
undercrust is sufficiently done; an in
fallible test is that of its slipping upon
the plate. The crust should be brown
and the filling, of honey richness. Eat
while fresh.
A hasty peach pudding may be made
as follows. Drain the liquor from a
can of peaches. Wet with it about a
cupful and a-half of ceraline-more or
less, according to the juiciness of the
peaches. 1t should not be too thick to
pour. Add two well-beaten eggs, a
| speck of salt, and half cup of sugar,
| Pour this mixture into a buttered pud'
ding dish. Now drop the reserved
peaches into the center of the mixture
| and bake from fifteen to twenty-five
| minutes. No sauce is required. and thi:
pudding is good hot or cold.
A savory composite dish is made by
| laying an onion sliced and fried down
in butter, in the. bottom of a baking
dish; put layer of cold boiled rict
next, we'll moistened with an equa
| quantity of stewed potatoes, and covel
the whole with layer of crumbs, we
with milk. Set in the oven till heateC
through and brown on top. The ric'
and potatoes should be previously sea
4 soned.
One-fifth oatmeal to four-fifths rice
salted and cooked with sufficient mill
in a double boiler. is an agreeable varia
tion to the common boiled rice.
When making vegetable hash, tn
wise woman, who has a spoonful o
| two of cold cooked oatmeal or cracke'
wheat, will add it to the other in
gradients. 1t should not be distin
guishable as grain, but will assist i
giving a creamy consistency and haVo
to the compound.

The Frenohman Gave Up the Seats.

s'An interesting little incident occur
red the other night at the Theater de
Varieties. writes New Yorker trav-
cling in France to an acquaintance in
this city. A young Missourian, accom-
panied by lady, found to his annoy
ance that his seats had been appropri-
ated by military looking individual.
He explained the situation to the at
tendant, but that functionary was too
frightened to do anything in the affair,
and the American learned from by
ISLANDERS that the intruder was Capt.
c., a famous duelist and bully of the
Cuirassiers.
II am sorry to disturb you, Mon
sieur," he said, walking to the captain,
but you have my seats"
The reply of the captain translated
into fourth ward patois would be
What are you going to do about itP''
Nothing now," quietly replied the
son of the states; 81 have lady with
me, but as you leave the theater to-
night shall shoot you through the
head. Good evening""
While the American was returning
to the hotel with the lady the cavalry
man left the theater and took the ex-
press train for Munich.-N 7. Tribune.

Great Natural Qualifications.

Some years ago a young man ap-
piled to the District court of Dallas,
Tex, for admission to the bar. 1t look
ed very much as though he lacked the
requisite preparation, and the exam
lining lawyer badgered him until his
brow was beaded with perspiration.
do you know what fraud is in the
judicial sense of the word?" he in
quired. Il DON'T hardly think do. !"
''Well. fraud exists when a man takes
advantage of his superior knowledge
to injure an ignorant person" so.
that's it, is ita Then if you take ad-
vantage of your superior knowledge to
ask me questions 1 can't answer. and
in consequence thereby am refused a
license. will be injured, and you will
be guilty of fraud. won't you, judge?"
The lawyer was very thoughtful for a
few moments, and then added reflect
lively. a'My young friend. 1 perceive

Going Upstairs.

Women doctors say, and many
women prove it in practice. that by 60
ing upstairs slowly, with the foot
heel and toe alike--put firmly on each
stair, one may arrive at the top of four
flights of stairs really rested. instead of
grasping for breath. as when one runs
upstairs. Going upstairs is good
form of exercise if one goes at it in the
right way to get its benefits.
