modern article, but 1t has q curved back,
high in proportion to the other parts of the

UNsANITARY CELLARS.

II is small use to say that cellars under
the house are unslnitary aud should not
be tolerated. The cellars are there and
what remains to be done is to keep
them as wholesome rs possible. Plenty
of light and good ventilation are great
aids to this end, while once or twice II
week, during the middle OF the day, tho
window should be thrown open thlt a
complete change of air may be effected.
This is more especially necessary if fruit
or vegetables in any quantity are stored
in the cellars, care being taken that tho
airing is not prolonged to the freezing
point.
In his Monitor or Heath, DR.. Kellogg
has these wise words in regard 70
further care OF cellars underneath dwell
ings: "a good way to vensiltt, cellar
is to extend from it pipe to the Kitchen
chimney. The draft in the chimney will
carry away the gases which would other
wise find their way into the rooms above.
Cellars should be kept clear OF declying
vegetables, wood, wet coal AMI mould.
The walls should be frequently white
washed, or washed with strong solu.
ton OF cOpperas. The Importance of
some of these simple measures cannot be
overestimated. ."-F'Irmsr'S RjUieW.

SMALL POINTS IN CARVING.

A fillet Of veal should be sliced from
the top, line of veal from the small
end.
Tongue and ham should be cut very
thin; the centre slices of tongue are con-
sidered the best.
All meats should be placed on com
fortably large dishes, as lack of room
prevents graceful carving.
The guests should express a preference
for rare or we'll done, the carver giving
some of the tenderloin to each
A sirloin Of beef should be laid with
the tenderloin down, cut in thin slices,
then turn aud cut the other side.
The best parts of fish lie near the head.

plate. BE careful in serving fish not to
break il. A fish knife or knife with a
broad blade is the Brooklya
