I have been dining at one Of the best
climbs In London. But the potatoes are
uniformly bad, w;sxy and indigesuble. l
do not write merely OF a club grievance.
I am an old housekeeper-m over
twenty years | am passlonateiy fond OF
potatoes, and rarely ever get them 70 my
liking. | had 70 90 to ~ the other day,
aud my host Is large potato grower. Al
dinner the potatoes were periect-rHvlsh-
inpi 4 few questions and answers elected
the remarkable fact that my own table
was usually supplied by my hosts pota-
toes. But mine were always like those OF
the club-dull, sodden, waxy and abomlna-
BILE. His were light. dry, mealy and per
fectly delightful.
BEING bit Of cook myself arranged
with my host to spend the next forenoon
in his kitchen The potato IS composed al
most entirely of pure starch. TO make
this starch agreeable TO the eye and the
nalate its corpuscular elements must De
split up by heat in the presence Of excess
of moisture, and at temperature Just
little higher than boiling water at the sea
level (2l2 degs }. Now, | happen 70 live at
such height above sea level that water
nrobably boils at 30 degs Hence never
eet good potatoes. Ny hosts house was
lust as mine, and his COOK sald that lhe
water in his well did not suit potatoes
she knew nothing about the sen level and
temperature-so that she was obliged to
soften it with salt.
She put big handful Of salt n the pot
of POTATOES, and think raised the boiling
noint 10 about 2i6 de.ss Then, after boil
| inc them till the skins burst, she poured
OF the water, cooked the lid half OF the
not. pnt the latter on the hob, and thus
\ for about fifteen minutes she thoroughly
| dried them The result was amazing and
delightful | went home. aud made a
series OF careful experiments. You cannot
steam potato into perfection unless you
inelose the steam 50 as TO raise its temper
atnre TO about PIG degs,
Potatoes must always be boiled IN theli
skins and 10 pretty strong saline solu'
ton in order TO get them in perfection, de
lightful TO the palate and easy of digestion
After such treatment they may be made
into soup. they may be baked or roasted
(for few minutes only in their skins
they may be mashed, cooked la maltre
sante. or fifty things may be done Will
them, but first Of all they must be boiled
in their skins, with plenty Of salt, ane
then well dried. Pail Mall Gazette.

TWENTY YEARS AGO.
The Circuit Court Calendar of 1870, and
What It Contained.

Tn, Circuit Court Calendar of 1870, and
What 1t Contained.
In looking over the accumulations of
twenty years in the dusty archives Of
the circuit court yesterday, Judge Ad-
sit fished up from among the debris a
stained circuit court calendar dated
1870. Hon. Louis s. Lowell was then
Judge, p. McNaughton, clerk, and J.
F. Wyckoff, sheriff. There were then
sixty-four active practlcing attorneys
ia the circuit court, which was known
At the Eighth Judicial circuit. compris-
ing the counties of Barry, Clinton,
Ionia. Kent and Montcalm. The rapid
growth of Kent county has been re-
markable in the past twenty years. for
it now requires two circuit judges TO do
the business formerly done by one
judge, who also settled disputes in four
other counties.
The most remarkable feature of the
calendar is the fact that the number OF
divorce cases IL even greater than that
contained in the current calendar.
Marriage is evidently becoming more
solvent IN Kent.
