Hammocks.

Pure white hammocks made Of bleach.
ed cord are something new. They
have wide ruffles of the same falling
from the edge, which give a graceful
effect, and piled with red pillows, they
are quite picturesque. A hammock
like this may take the place Of the sofa
in the family sitting room, if there is
space large enough to hang it without
interfering with the other furniture,
and it will be found delightful resting
place in summer. 1t need not be taken
down when winter comes, and If bright
'colored rug is spread in it for warmth,
and plenty Of pillows are used, it is
always decorative feature in the room.
Colored hammocks are also made
with wide, falling drapery and tassels
Slips of pongee for the large pillows
which are used in them are cool and
pleasant to the touch and can be easily
Numbered when soiled.

Mushrooms.

Poisoning by mushrooms is generally
caused by the disregard of very simple
points Of observation. In the first
place. no one should undertake to gath
er these excellent foods without being
fully informed as to their shape color,
odor, and taste. There are many books
giving all these in detail. Here it need
only be said that any mushroom which
looks clean and fresh, is not worm
eaten, has pink gills under buff COL
ored cap, that turns dark when bruised
or matured, has nutty taste and
pleasant odor, may be presumed to be
good. Mushroom gatherers avoid fungi
growing from what is called vulva or
hollow cup at the base of the stem.
The writer's test, after noting the above
characteristics, is to taste a small por.
ton Of the cap without swallowing it
If the favor is sweet and nutty, and
does not sting or burn the throat, the
specimen, even if unknown, is placed
among the candidates for cooking.
Some salt is always carried, and little
is held in the mouth for moment; still
little more is swallowed, care being
taken not to swallow a particle of the
mushroom. When the mushrooms are
gathered, they should all be carefully
washed in water containing salt and
vineagar, and then cooked with salt.
These precautions usually insure safety.
In fact, when poisoning by any kind
of fungi has occurred, some careless
ness Of choice or preparation has been
noted. Old fashioned cooks usually
relied upon using a silver spoon 10
cooking suspicious fungi; but the test
has not been proven infallible. In case
of actual poisoning use tho same treat
ment as for narcotics, 1. e., emetics,
stimulating restoratives, and the earliest
possible attention of competent
physician. 1t may be said in passing
that mushrooms are far more Important
as an article of food than is generally
understood. They rank next to meat
in SAVIOR and nutriment, having largely
replaced it in the South during our
civil! war.

Currants.


This delightful fruit can be prepared
many ways, and furnishes tonic for
weak digestion as well as pleasure for
the taste.
When very ripe, use raw for lunch
with plain cake. Pick from the stems,
wash carefully, cover with sugar and let
stand an hour. Raspberries and cur
rants make a good salad: in equal mix
lures.
For currants in jelly to each pound
OF prepared fruit, allow a pound Of
sugar. Put half the fruit in the pre-.
serving kettle, and when just warm,
mash and strain through jelly bag
Put the juice and sugar into the kettle
and boil gently for fifteen minutes
Tie currants will be just cooked
through, and will remain whole iD the
jelly.
In making currant jelly half each Of
red and white makes it more delicate
in favor. Raspberries, one pound to
three Of curranss, gives another variety.
If currants are fully ripe, the juice can
be expressed without heating. To each
pint allow pound of sugar. Boil the
juice twenty minutes, then pour the
sugar in slowly, stirring all-the while
When dissolved, let it boil up and pour
into heated glasses.
Currants are nice canned as other
berries. Allow one-balf pound, Of
sugar to each pound Of prepared fruit.
Heat the sugar in the oven. Let the
fruit boil five minutes, add the sugar
slowly. Can at once.
The juice Of currants may be bottled
without sweetening. Heat, skim well.
and seal perfectly. For pudding sauces
or for drink in water it has few
equals.

Short jackets are set aside as quite
out of date.
Very becoming fichus are made Of
lace and silk combined.
Organdies are likely to stanu high in
favor during the summer.
The ''draughty' bonnets worn during
the season have caused many colds and
much neuralgia.
A light, ine cloth used for cloaks is
called "drab excelsior" 1t has a soft
finish and drapes beautifully.
There is a great demand for "cozy
corners" in London drawing rooms, and
the upholsterers are kept busy making
new designs.
Regular pocketbooks are obsolete.
Ladies carry handy affair which has a
place for money on one side and cards
on the other.
Simplicity and lightness are more
than ever in vogue for young ladies'
evening gowns. Cloth. which is being
good deal used, is not considered
appropriate for debutantes.
A young girl does not presume to
wear jewels with the exception of tiny
pearl screws in the ears and inexpen.

ABOUT THE APIARY.

Ir is estimated that to collect one
pound of honey from clover $4,000
heads of clover must be deprived of
nectar and 3,75O,O00 visits from bees
must be made. 49,.
NOTHING can detract more from our
crop of comb honey than to have our
bees get the swarming fever during the
honey harvest unless it is having them
SO weak at the time that they are of
little or no value.
THE largest amount of wild honey
ever taken from one tree was reported
from Oregon recently. A farmer took
700 pounds from one cottonwood tree
in which huge swarm of bees had
stored. up the annual accumulations for
many years.
In locating an apiary avoid the close
gathered from the laurel is unwhole.
some, if not really poisonous; avoid the
neighborhood of cider-mills, and do not
locate Immediately near a large body of
water, as it will confine your bee-range
to one direction exclusively.
The prominence of the Bookkeeping
industry is not generally recognized,
from the fact that it is almost every
where carried on as an incident of gen.
eral agriculture. Every State and Ter
ritory reports bees and more or less hon
ey, usually hive or few colonies for
each farmer, with occasionally an ex-
tensive apiary and large production.
ALWAYS in managing bees, the apiar=
list should have an eye on the future as
regards his honey harvest, until the
harvest arrives, and when it arrives,
then bend his every energy for the time
which is present. For instance, my
honey harvest comes from Eastwood, or
during the last half of July, so all my
operations previous to this time must
be in reference to this harvest, or all my
efforts will result only in failure.
