HOUSEHOLD NOTES.
MRS s. 4. NETTLES.

FoR THE Sting of bee, or the bite
of an insect, apply diluted ammonia,
or bi-carbonate of soda, to the part
affected.
A SPRA1NED ANELE can be successful
" treated at home Remove the
shoe and stocking as quickly as pos
sible, and wash frequently with cold
salt water. If there is much heat in
the joint, apply cloths wet with a
mixture of seven ounces of water, one
of laudanum and one dram OF sugar
of lead. Keep the foot elevated and
cool; do not stand on it, and move it
as little as possible.
LITTLE CHILDREN often suffer pain
fully with earache. A drop of warm
olive oil, mixed with an equal quanti-
ty of laudanum, will generally relieve
this, if dropped in the ear. Or, place
a little cotton, we'll saturated with
chlorofornn, in the bowl Of new clay
pipe; insert the stem into the ear OF
the sufferer and blow gently. The
evaporating chloroform will relieve
the pain Immediately.
A SMALL, LIGHT spice-cake is made
by rubbing half cup of butter and
one cup of sugar together until they
are light and creamy. Beat the white
and yolk of one egg separately; add
this and also half a cup of sweet but
termilk, one-half teaspoonful each of
nutmeg, cinnamon 'and cloves; mix
one teaspoonful of baking powder
with one cup and half of -four, and
add half a cup of raisins, stoned.
EVERY MOTHER Knows how often lit
tie ones get something in the eye.
take hold of the lashes of the upper
lid with the left hand, and pressing
the dull point of a pencil against the
middle of the lid, turn it upward;
then remove the substance with a
camel's hair brush, or the corner of a
soft handkerchief. Particles of lime
often cause great pain if they get in
to the eye, as any one who has ever
whitewashed a ceiling can testify.
Apply weak vinegar to neutralize the
alkai and remove the particle as di-
rected.
COOP APPLE PIE is a luxury, but
few know how to make it. Like
peach pie, it should have no under
crust. Use nice ripe apples; peel,
core, and quarter them. Fill the pie
dish with alternate layers Of apple,
sugar, few very small bits Of butter,
and grated nutmeg. Round the edge
of the dish lay an edge of pastry, and
over the whole put a cover of good,
aaky pie-paste. Some cooks put in
water but this spoils it. Press the
edges so that no juice will escape,
and bake a light brown; eat the same
day it is baked. Peach pies are some
thing to dream OF, when peaches are
fresh and can be put in auhole, thickly
covered with sugar, and baked quick
ly, with an upper crust only. No spice
is needed. The stones, in which the
pits are enshrined, flavor them sufi-
GENTLY, provided the peaches are the
rich, yellow-feshed variety, as they
should be.

On, yes; everybody now says he
knew the State would come out VIC
tor in the Coosaw fight, but somehow
we have a not-too-faint recollection
that some Of these same persons and
papers tried very hard to use the
stiletto on Tillman and Pope when
they undertook the fight against the
Coosaw octopus. But Tillman is
still on top, and will stay there. He
is great man, and we believe he is
honestly working for the interests Of
the people. He is human; he is liza
BILE to err; he has committed mis-
takes: but he is the best governor
the State has ever had.

A'Gamc OF Draw Poker In which ROYALTY
Took Hand.
n lew years since one of Uncle Sans
frigatee was lying in the harbor at Hon
olulu, and attached to it was n jolly, fat,
good-natured officer, n favorite with
every one. While this vessel was in
port the steamer from Australia came
IN, bringing as Il passenger BILLY Emer-
Son, the negro minstrel, who was ON his
way to California. Finding that Homo
lulu was pretty good place he con-
Guided to stay over one steamer.
Now, Billys reputation rs a poker
lover is pretty well known, and SO is
that of his Majesty, SO 1T did not take
long to set up a little gnmc" An ap-
pointment was made for Billy to meet
the King, and when his Majesty came
into the hotel he was accompanied by a
certain Colonel on his staff, who owned
butcher stand in the town. In passing
through the billiard room his Majesty
spicd our joviai tar, whom we will call
Jim" for short, because that is not his
name; and, knowing his well known
scent for battle, invited him to ioin in
the fight.
When the game began it WIS Jim's
first bet, and he Clipped up SIS. The
Colonel came next and raised $40; then
his Majesty saw that and went $50 bet
ter, which made our jolly mariner
little faint; but when Billy saw the last
raise and went $500 better poor Jim laid
down his hand and came out. OF course
every one wanted to know what was
the matter.
II tell you what, fellows" he said.
N'that is the dogondest game of poker
ever got into, u Lieutenant, q butcher,
a niger minstrel, and King! 1t is too
high toned for me- "-Washinpton Star.
