THE AMERICAN CAKE.
How 10 Raise and Keep Buckwheas
Batter.
A HINGED BUcKwHEAT oRIppLE.


There is nothing so easy to make. yet
for some reason nothing is SO apt to go
wrong In the hands OF new cook as
buckwheat cakes. The second rising.
when the batter Is made TO rise with the
batter left over from the last baking, is
always better than when the cakes a.e
set. as they must be. at the beginning OF
the season with ordinary wheat yeast.
After they are once started, buckwheat
cakes may be raised for several weeks
from the same batter. using what is left
each time as a yeast to raise the next
batch or cakes. The batter left over must
be kept in tightly-covered pail. II there
is any danger OF it's turning sour pour
cold water gently over IL Till the water is
OF the depth OF ten inches. This water
absorbs any acidity and does not mix with
the batter. unless 1t is stirred In. 1t
should be turned off as gently as it was
turned on, leaving the batter beneath IL.
The best utensil in which 10 raise buck
wheat cakes Is an earthenware pail :"
with an ample spout These pals are
furnished with perfectly tight tin covers,
that fit over the spout and over the mouth.
so that nothing can get into them. The
thick earthenware keeps the batter at a
uniform temperature. 1t is much easier To
make perfectly round cake by pour
ing the batter from a spout tnan by dip
ping IL out with a spoon. 1t is a
slovenly practice to serve cakes OF various
sizes and shapes. To be appetizing in APP
pearance. these cakes should be OF uni
form size and circular form and OF deli
cate but uniform brown. A grlddle like
the one shown lin the cut is a great help.
Pour the batter into the circular griddles
and when they are brown flop this part
over on the other part when the cakes are
turned at one operation.

THE sPIRITE OF THE GOO-GoO-GEE.

THE sPIRITE OF THE GOO-GOO-GEE.
A Poem Written by william j. Florence
for His Children Friends.
A fairy came from her opal cave
In the depth OF the Onyx Sea.
And brought a babe with golden hair
And sparkling eyes, like diamonds rare.
And lips like rose and skin so fair,
And little fat hands with dimples deep.
To rub his eyes when he wanted to sleep
And short plump legs with which TO
creep.
The fairy stopped at farmers gate.
And said. "Pll enter here.
For little mother wants babe.
With bright blue eyes that sparkle clear
And cheeks as pink as the conch shslls
ear,
And curls on It's tiny pate"
Now behind this fairy, kind and true,
Came another sprite called Bug-a-boo.
From the land OF the Goo-goo-gee.
o., he was q nasty pop-eyed elf
That thought too much OF his ugly self.
And between both you and me.
He was after the babe that the fairy
brought
From the depths OF the Onyx Sea.
When the babe was laid on its mothers
lap,
IL slapped his hands with glee,
And the fairy said, "rll leave you hero
II you will promise me
Never to pout or fret.
But be a sweet and darling pet.
And as good as good can be.
IF ever you are naughty child
And cause your mamma pain.
The sprite from the land Of the Goo-goo-
gee
Will come some night down the chim-nee
Aud take you away from your mamnia's
knee
To his cave in the black molasses sea,
And you can't come back again"
But this lovely child was very good,
And Bug-a-boo. you see,
Grew very mad because he could
Not get his fat ba-bee:
And he's running around the country yet,
As wild as he can be.
Watching every little pet.
To see ii It'll cry or pout or fret,
For, he says A child I'm bound to get,
For my home on the Goo-goo-gee."

Four experienced miners of
Morrell have patented a new
safety mining lamp, said to be
even better than any now IN
use, There are two principal
claims made for it over the old
Davy lamp. One is that it can
not be opened for the purpose
of allowing miners to take a
light for their pipes, as this is
conceded to be one of the many
causes Of mine explosions,
usually called Cause un-
known. Another superior
quality of the lamp is that it will
discover gas one and a halt in
ches thick on the mine roof,
while other lamps will only
show gas when it is much thick

1t is an old story to say that
mining pays. If it did not men
would stop work. This is a
safe index of the prosperity of
the occupation. People as a
rule do not throw away their
labor for nothing, and if large
and intelligent class persist in
prosecuting any certain indus
try, it simply means that they
are convinced that there is
money in it. T he miniug of
gold and silver, and of the iron,
copper, low-grade lead and
other ores which help to make
the precious metal mining prof
table, is now supporting a
large population in this Terri
tory.
