FIREsIoE FRAGMENTS.

Apple griddle cakes are made by
adding finely chopped, rather tart
apples, to the usual batter.
Plaster of paris is an excellent ma
terial for sealing catsup and fruit bot
ties or Jars, and is more easily applied
than sealing wax.
Persons subject to headaches should
abandon the use of coffee, and also of
strong tea. as the use of these beverages
often contributes to keep up the disease,
and in some cases alone causes it.
To clear coffee, use the white of an
egg stirred into the ground coffee and q
little cold water. Put this into the
clean boiler and add boiling water from
the tea-kettle. When done remove to
one side and put in a very little cold
water and allow the coffee to settle.
Cheese Fondu: Put tablespoonful
of butter in the chafng-dish; when
melted, add cup of fresh milk and g
cup of fine bread crumbs, two cups of
grated cheese, a tablespoonful of dry
mustard, a little cayenne. Stir con-
stantlv, and add, just before serving,
two eggs, beaten light.-Christian I'm
ion.
Chicken feathers, if properly treated,
will make pillows which are almost as
light as those of geese. Use only the
downy, entire feather, stripping all of
the others from their shafts. To kill
the rancid odor, wash through warm
water, to which you have added chloride
of lime-a spoonful to a gallon of water
and dry in an open Oven.-Rural New
Yorker.
Corn Waff1es: One cup each of corn
meal and -four through which has been
sifted one heaping. teaspoonful of baking
powder, two tablespoonfuls of sugar and
one teaspoonful of salt; add the beaten
yelks of three eggs, one and one-fourth
cups of milk, the beaten whites, and
last tablespoonful of melted butter.
Bake in gem pans in quick ovon.
Mutton Steaks: Make a batter of
dried bread crumbs, a pint of milk and
one egg; put it in china soup or pie
dish. Have ready in frying-pan some
hot good beef drippings, or some butter
and lard mixed. Dip each steak, pre-
viousIy cut from the loin or leg, into
this batter twice, and fry quickly. Send
to table surrounded with unmashed tur-
nips, cooked until tender, and masked
in drawn butter that has horse-radish
grated into it.-Leeds Mercury.
Sweetbread Pie: Cut some sweet
breads which have been parboiled into
two or three pieces and let them stew
for fifteen minutes in little white
stock, with small white onion chopped
fine, a piece of butter rolled in flour,
pepper and salt to taste, and dozen
mushrooms. Put them into a pie dish
with some asparagus tops, fOrcemeat
balls, and hard boiled eggs. Lay slices
of bacon on the top; bake until the
paste is done enOugh.-The Old Home
stead.
Sponge Gingerbread: One table
spoonful of butter, one-half cup each OF
molasses and sugar, and one teaspOonful
each of cinnamon and ginger; just let it
come to boil, then when cool add one
half cup of milk, two and one-half cups
of flour, and two and one-half teaspoon
fuls of baking powder. This makes one
large loaf or twenty cup cakes. Use all
molasses instead of sugar, two table
spoonfuls each of cloves, ginger and
cinnamon, add more flour, roll out thin,
and you have delicious spice cookies

The Beauty OF Health.

How many women with regular features
that might be beautiful, are not, and instead
of awakening our admiration only arouse
our pity. Their hollow eyes and sunken
cheeks and sallow skin haunt our memory.
Alasi an invalid wife or mother or sister
fills the house with gloom and sadness, and
an otherwise happy fireside is Swallowed
with a pail of regret. Blessed be the physi-
clan who has invented a remedy with power
to strengthen the female organization, that
regulates the delicate functions of feminine
life, that relieves those bearing down pains,
that renews the appetite, that periects dl-
gesticn, that brightens the eyes and beauti-
fies the complexion with the glow of health.
Such a remedy is DR.. Bulls Sarsaparilla
1t is wOman's best friend for counteractinG
the evils that affiict her sex. Thousands OF
ladies owe their beauty to use of this in

druggist Take no other.-PGris NepS.

MAKING ROOMS CHEERFUL.
How to Render House Surroundings Pleas
ant and Desirable.

How to Render House Surroundings Pleas
ant and Desirable.
We are so Influenced by our surround
ings that it is very desirable they should
be as pleasant as possible. 1t is not al
ways in the power of the house-mother
to live in the locality she prefers, or to
change its features to suit her tastes;
but she may so furnish and arrange the
interior of her house that it shall be
charming and restful. The charm OF
COW home resides inherently in the mis-
tress, and not in what the furnisher and
Upholsterer can do to make house COM
Portable. If fine mirrors, and velvet
carpets, and plush-covered furniture,
and elegant carvings made happy homes,
what blessedness would reside in fur
niture store, Not till loved faces have
been reflected in mirror is it made at
all precious to us; not till footsteps for
which we fondly listen have pressed the
carpet is its inanimate web dear to US;
not till chairs and sofas have been con-
secrated by holding the forms OF our
friends do these soulless objects, how
ever costly, have to US other than mere
commercial value. Unassociated with
human feeling and sympathy, the most
expensive and elaborate interiors are
like roses without scent; like marbles
without life. Every Thoughtful person
knows all this well enough; but, for all
that, we are too apt to fancy that pos
sessions like these bring happiness,
while we suffer to lie unused such as are
at hand, and potent to yield abundant
pleasure, if we value them justly.
A bird singing in the window, an &C
uuarium on the table, plants growing
and blooming, domestic pets moving
about as if at home, give life and bright
ness to an apartment, and afford con-
slant opportunities for pleasantest oc-
cupation and companionship. Books
people a room, and pictures on the
walls, if selected with taste, are ever
fresh sources of enjoyment. You may
gauge the refinement and cultivation Of
a family bv these infallible tests, unless
they have been selected by some out
slider. Bits of embroidery, crocheted or
knitted work, and a thousand tasteful
devices NAV contribute to the charm Of
room, and make it irresistibly at
tractive. The room in which one lives
takes on the complexion and prevailing
states of the mind of the occupant. II
one is sunny-hearted. cheerful, tasteful
and intelligent, these qualities will be
impressed on his surroundings, and you
will know him by them just as you
would know a crab by his cast-of she'll.
There are lovely rooms in which there
isnot one piece of fine furniture, one bit
of elegant upholstery, but where the
taste of the occupants has found beauti-
full expression in calico, ingram, and
wood-engraving, and such resources as
bounteous Nature bestows on US all
ferns, and flowers, and sunshine, and
domestic pets.-American Agriculturist.

Breaches OF Etiquette Which She Will Care
fully Avoid.
Do not write on ruled paper, or on that
decorated with printed sunf1ower or
blossom of any kind.
Do not introduce your girl friend to
the gentleman visitor. Instead say,
Miss Brown; will you allow me to pre-
sent Mr.. Jones?"
Do not talk especially to one person
when you have three or four visitors.
Instead make the conversation general.
Do mot attempt to take care of mans
overcoat; he has vote and ought to be
able to look after his own clothes
Do not ask people who they are in
mourning for. If you don't know, wait
until you find out, and in the meantime
don't ask after the members of their
family.
Do not get into the habit of laughing
at elderly people. 1t is not only unlady-
ike, but it is vulgar.
Do not laugh at anybodY's form OF
worship; respect toad praying to a
mushroom.
Do not believe that all these don Is
