PERFECTION OF SALADS.

Nothing is better for an appetizer
than nice, fresh, cold salad, unless it
be two nice, fresh cold salads. But to
make up a delicious entity everything
must be perfection. The salad plants
must be clean and dry, the oil direct
from Lucca, and the vinegar the purest
that can be brought forth from clean ap-
Piles and new press.
If one is bit dainty, rather critical,
almost exacting, and feels the need of a
stomach ticker, o Russian salad is the
thing par excellence to accomplish this
end. Mix for this tonic dish equal quan.
titles of chopped beet-root, boiled, and
celery; add dish of scraped horseradish
and then pour over-not maycnnsise
this time-but mixture Of oil, vinegar,
pepper and salt.
A Swedish salad is more complicated
and is good thiugt eat when you have
already got IN appititc and big dish of
something. This is the way to get it up.
Chop up nearly the same quantities Of
Told potatoes and boiled beets, put a
couple of teaspoons of the water in
which the beets were boiled, and two
picked hcrrlngs minced, raw apple, a
pickled cucumber and an onion. Cover
the whole business with sweet cream,
and when you feel just like eating, pitch
in and hope for the best.-New Orleans

MEyIco's LIVING DIAMONDS.

The most interesting thing noticed
while I was away in Mexico, was habit
the ladies of Chihuahua and Zacetus have
of wearing 6reaies for jewelry. The legs
of the flies are shaped like hooks, and
they appear to have been formed expressly
in the interest of the ladies. These living
diamonds sparkle aud shine more than
any of the diamonds of Africa or South
America, for the frehiey in that part of
the world have a rare brilliancy never
witnessed In the North. They will
almost do for lantern on dark night,
so beautiful and strong is the light they
give to the world.
This habit of wearing freAies is in
bulged by the ladies of the poorer classes to
large extent, and even the society ladies
often pick up the shining brownies and
and fasten them in their hair just as an
American girl will gather wild flowers
for similar purpose. So numerous are
the firehies in Mexico that 1 was told
chat train on the Mexican Southern
Railroad was stopped by these brownies,
the engineer finding it impossible to
keep the wheels from slipping as they
crushed the life out of millions of the
fnsects.-Kaasas City Times.
