Practical Hints.

E.IoSSiSaA EIluSSs
Never leave vegetables in the water
after they are cooked.
If sassafras bark is sprinkled
among dried fruit it will keep out the
worms.
Catsup keeps better, and pickles
also, if you put q bit of horseradish
in the mouth OF the bottle.
In boiling meat for soup use cold
water to extract the juices, but if the
meat is wanted for itself alone put
into boiling water.
When washing fine white hannels
add q tablespoonful OF pulverized
borax to q pailful Of water. This
will keep them soft and white.
A pound OF sulphur burnt in a tight
" closed room will destroy every
living thing in in it, from moths and
bed-bugs to possible disease germs.
II doughnuts are cut out an hour
before they are fried, to allow little
time for rising, they will be much
lighter. Try cutting at night and
frying in the morning,

HOW FIsH-Hooks ARE MADE.

HOW FIsH-HOOkS ARE MADE.
Some Points of Interest to Anglers
About Their Weapons.
The making OF fsh-hooks is not
merely trade in its self; anglers con-
slider that it is, properly speaking, an
art. In England the best ones are
made. because all manufactures OF
steel excel in that country, where every
product of that material, from raz-
ors down is beyond compare Hooks
OF the first quality are made from
the very best cast-steel wire. which is.
turned out in coils at Sheffield and
Birmingham.
The first process is to cut the wire
into lengths suitable for the hooks to
be made. Ordinary sizes arechopped
off by the quantity with a machine,
but the big ones for use in catching
sharks and other big sea fishes are
cut singly with a hammer and chisel.
After the lengths of wire have been
cut off another operator takes them
and turns up the barb by cutting into
the yet soft metal with a knife upon an
anvil. Next the straight pieces are tax
en- in hand by workman who files the
points to keenness. Where the best
hooks are concerned each one is mani
pulated separately, being held in pine
erswhile the neccessarysharpn is CIV
en- by afewdexterous strokes. Common
hooks are pointed with one file, bat
the finer sorts require the application
Of two or three OF different degrees OF
coarseness, says theWashington Star.
The points once made, another
workman takes the bits OF wire IN
hand, bending themround in a curved
piece OF steel 50 that each one shall
have the characteristic fexure.
Thefamous s.Limerick" and 'sShaugh-
Messy bends are absolute reproduct-
ions OF those preferred in that early
epoch.

Pork and Celery Stew.

A savory dish these chilly autumn
days, for those who like celery, is
made thus: A large, thick slice of pork
is put on to boil in plenty of water
while you cut into short pieces or
strips several stalks of celery. Put
these into the stew and cover closely
while you pare and slice, pretty thick
~, half dozen medium-si1e pota-
toes; add these to the other ingredi-
ents. While they are cooking take
two teacupfuls of sour milk and
cream, in proportions to suit your
self, one teaspoonful of salt, one tea
spoon rounding full OF soda, and the
same OF c. nam of tartar, sifted in with
sufficient hour to form a stiff dough.
Drop small spoonfuls into the stew,
and cook, uncovered until done, turn
ing them over carefully when we'll
pulled out or raised. Dumplings may
be made of sweet cream or milk if pre-
ferred, by doubling the amount of
baking powder or it's equivalent, then
lin my experience) if dropped into
boiling broth and kept boiling they
will be eight as feather" Asimilar
stew may be made during any part of
the year by using celery seed instead
OF stalks; green stalks are as good as
blanched.

The Abused American, Pie,

A certain mother, who had been
seized with the Anglomaniac fever,
endeavored to keep house on strict
English theories. Certain American
dishes were never to come upon her
table, and on the list of the banished
were pies, "pizen things" as they
were by her then considered.
This rigorous exclusion of the ma
tional dish, which is quite universally
considered one of the chief corner
stones OF the constitution Of the
United States, resulted in ss,little re-
bellious right in her own family; for
her children as they grew older, real
lied that they were being deprived of
their ''inalienable rights" and not
wishing to grow up and become in
competent citizens, simply from q
lack Of pie, demanded it's restoration,
SO that the American pie finally reap
peared on that Anglomaniac table, at
first by way Of compromise; under the
name Of ''tarts.n
The mistress, realizing that pie
neither affected the health nor the
social standing OF the family, now per-
5mitted pies to appear in their native
loneliness, and the children rejoiced in
genuine, unmitigated American pie, in
Guiding all varieties OF apple, pumpkin
mince, berry, etc. b
Moreover, in explanation Of the
surrender, the lady declares that her
children all have good clear skins, and
that a good pie is just as easily digest
ed as any other desert, and that the
fact of it's being wholesome or UNI
who 1esome depends, as is the case with
most food, onthe cooking,

Memory Jars,

The New York Recorder has dis
covered that a memory jar is one of
the latest ideas taken up by the gen
tier sex. A woman who is the proud
possessor Of one thus describes it's
use: ''The jar is intended to hold
souvenirs, especially flowers, though
it IS perfectly proper to drop in any
thing that is very precious. I have
just begun mine. l have ransacked
my desk and bureau and made a start.
This golden-rod is part Of bunch he
picked for me one day last September
when we were in the country. This
faded maple leaf was picked up in
Longfellow's yard. The pansies are
some that Belle sent me commence
ment day; the fresher ones came from
mamma a few weeks ago. That I'M.
romantic looking twig came from
a tree that Edgar A. Poe plant
ed. I got it in Fordham one day
when made q pilgrimage there.
The four-leaved clover was put in
one of my favorite books by a friend
who is dead. Everybody ought to-
keep a memory jar. Mine is becoming
very interesting already"

How can the violet bloom on the salty
lsoll2 - 10! women are flowers that. are
Always becoming more and more
beautiful and fragrant-the more they.
are guarded and cared for. But men
should be keepers in the garden Of
beauty; they may rejoice themselves
N the fragrance OF the flowers, but
they may not rumple them with rude
hands q Just as the weed is rooted from
the.f1ower-be so should all that is base
and common be removed far away
from the neighborhood Of women.
Tread upon a rose with thy feet and it's
thorns amaze thee; watch over it with
love and care, and it will bloom and be
iragggrant, an ornament to itself and
thee. Make thyself Of thine own &C
cord q slave to a woman, and she
VIII not bear it, but will herself bow
before thee, and in thankful love look
up to thee as her lord; make q woman
by force thy slave, and she will bear it
still less, but will seek by craft and
cunnlngto obtain dominion over thee,
For the empire oflove is the empire of
contradictions; the wise man marks
this and acts accordingly. The mere
one has to do with women the more
one learns to know them, the more
one learns to love them, and the more
one is loved again-for every true love
finds its response, and the highest love
IS the highest wisdom"

Have a Place of Your Own.

AA1Ve you place OF your own? 1t IS
to be hoped that you have, whatever
you may call it-studio, boudoir,
study or den-a place where you sit
to do your serious thinking, where
you write your letters and read your
favorite books. - :
Ii you have no such little den, make
one at once. Have room, if possible,
If it is only a tiny closet. If you can
not spare a room choose some corner
and fence it off with screen. It may
seem an unpromising angle at first,
but you can soon make g. coy cor
ner OF it. Gather the lares and penates
that you possess and arrange them
around you. Select the chair that
you naturally drop into when you are
tired, and place a little table by it.
Put a work basket on it, two or three
pet books and a photograph of one
OF your dear friends. Hang q Kenil-
worth ivy in the window, for, of course,
your corner includes a window. Hang
favorite picture where your eyes can
rest upon it. Let it be the little water
color your friend did FOR you, or the
fine etching you scrimped and saved to
pay for.
Here behind your screen you can
rest your tired head, think out your
knotty problems, and live in a little
world OF your own.-New York Re-
