long, narrow strips.-Boston Budget

pints of water for two hours. Strain
the soup, make it hot again, and add to
it some small pieces of toast, and lit
tie stewed celery, nicely seasoned.

There are few things more unsatis-
factory than modern fire Innings. The
bricks are easily cracked and frequent
ly last but a few months, while in 9TH
er cases they are often in use for years.
It is a great mistake to allow the fire.
bricks to get in bad order. There is an
iron plate back of the firebricks in
every stove, but this is easily burned
through and it costs large sum to re-
place it. Therefore, it is a matter of
moment whenever there is crack in
the fire bed of the stove, and it should
be mended at once, or the broken bricks
should be replaced.-N. Y. Tribune.
-Tip-Top Salad: Let a quart of
chopped cabbage and few stalks of
chopped celery lie in sailed water an
hour "a tablespoonful of salt to pint

moisture; pour over a dressing of
scant tablespoonful of mustard moist

gradually half pint of vinegar, half
teacupful of sugar and two tablespoon

place in moderate heat and stir in two
beaten eggs and two teaspoonfuls of
corn starch. Let it get very cold be-
fore mixing it with the cabbage and
celery.-Ohio Farmer.

one of currants, half a teaspoonful each
of cinnamon and allspice. Beat all to-
gether and put in buttered mold not
more than threc-quarters full. Put it

hours Serve hot with hard sauce. A
