The demand for aluminium cooking
utensils. says the New York Tribune, has
y finally been met, and several houses at
tncSeast and at the far west are making
kettles aud kitchen utensils of every kind
of ALUMINIUM As conductor of heat,
this metal is equal to copper. 1t resem-
bles in weight thin china. 1t possesses
the remarkable advantage above all
metals of being practically non-corrosive.
Only few of the most powerful acids,
which are never used in the domestic
kitchen, affect it. 1t seems to be an ideal
material in which to cook fruits, acid
-vegetab les for picking, sharp sauces, and
all other dishes which have heretofore
required porcelain-llned pot.
The only consideration left is the dura-
bility of the material, and time and use
only can solve this. These utensils are
somewhat liable to injury from dentinG,
but they are so light that they are not
apt to receive hard enough usage 10 pro-
duce much injury in this way. They are
practically unbreakable, and there IS no
more need of securing them than of
securing a porcelain cup. So far alumni
mum certainly seems TO be the ideal metal
of the kitchen, bound to supersede in
measure iron, tin, copper and porce-
lain-lined utensils. The price Of alumni
mum is now something less than that of
copper and il will doubtless be consider
ably reduced. so that in time it may even
compare in price with tinware.
Mrs Alice n Lincoln thus describes
her feelings while watching cremation:
las we stood in silence, watching the
rosy glow which played over the white
surface of the retort, a feeling came TO
us of awe certainly, but also of peace and

1t is the instinct of a true woman, says
the New ork Tribune, to be, in all her
to others. Company manners, company
clothes and company housekeeping, when
put on for effect are repugnant to her
ideas of self-respect. Although a good
housekeeper will, it is true get out her
best china for an occasion" and home
toilet is necessarily less costly and elabor-
ate than dinner gown, the same care
and thought and good taste should be
given to both, and the smiles and courtesy
Invariably bestowed upon guests should
be equally obligatory TO the family table.
Why is it that the presence of guest
makes such q wonderful change in the
home circle? The father of the family
ceases to be grumpy and fault-hnding
and becomes the courteous gentleman he
should always be; the children stop their
wrangling instinctively and grow sud
denly quiet and well-behaved; while the
housenlistress banishes her usual wor-
ried, queruous expression and beams
with smiles and good humor- and all for

1t is much more comfortable, says the
New York Mail and Express 10 consider
