We have seen that alcoholic liquors not
only cannot aid, but that they actually pre-
vent digestion, and that they injure the tone
of tho entire digestive apparatus. Neither
do thoy increase the power to endure
fatigue. rs is often asserted, but rather
diminish II, as is abundantly proved by tho
testimony OF those who have had to perform
the severest laborunder circumstances of the
greatest physical hardship.
DIR. Carpenter has examined this subject
very thoroughly, AMI presents ample evil
dence OF the fallacY OF the popular notions
upon II. He quotes among many other
examples, the circumstance of a vessel that
sprang leak Mt sea, and was kept afloat for
twelve weeks by the uLteasing efforts OF tho
passengers and crew. At first they partook
OF spirits, but their strength fniled so rapidly
that, by the captains orders, coffee and
cocoa wero substituted, "when," says tho
doctor, "their vigor returned their fatigue
diminished and after twelve woeks' In
cessant and severe labor (with no rest longer
than four hours), the ship was brought into
port with all on board Of her in as good con-
dition rs ever they worc In their lives.
He also received tho voluntary testimony
OF thirtY-four men engaged in the most
laborious operations, furnace aud foundry
men, glass blowers, etc, "that they were
able to perform their toll with greater case
and satisfaction when abstnning from liquor
than when they drank moderately OF it. Vt

continued exertion at n fire. with no other
beverage than coffee and ginger beer, while

keen cultivator or wheel hoe going
till the top growth renders further
working unnecessary.
In these days of intensive farming
OF gardening we must take two crops
off the same land each season when
ever possible, so horseradish is gem
orally made second crop, though
planted at nearly the same time rs the
first crop. The crops usually selected
as the first crop are early cabbages,
cauliiowers or beets. As soon rs the
first crop is planted the horseradish
sets are put out, rs described above,
midway between the other two rows,
so as to stand two or two and half
feet one way by sixteen or eighteen
inches the other.
The sets are put in deep enough so
the upper or slanting end will be
about three inches below the surface
of the ground. This will give the first
crop time enough to grow and be
gotten out of the way before the horse
radish gets much above ground.
While cultivating the first crop no
notice is taken of the horseradish un-
derneath. If a stray shoot comes up
it is to be treated as weed, and the
whole surface below the rows kept
clean. When the first crop is taken
off the cultivator may be run once
down the space where it stood and the
horseradish permitted to make its
growth as rapidly as it wishes. 1t
makes its most rapid growth in early
autumn anyway, and with the good
start it has had below the surface it is
soon ready for hoeing; this will
generally be all the cultivation needed.
1t is dug late in the fall, the tops
and small roots trimmed from the
main roots, which are stored in cellars
and root houses till wanted for the
market. The small roots as cut off
are saved, trimmed and punched for
the next seasons planting. They
should be buried in sand till wanted.
The large roots are generally washed
before being sold. The price is usu'
ally so much per pound. To start @
plantation roots may be obtained from
most large dealers in roots and plants.

GERMAN PEACH AND Appnr CAKE.

The "apple" and the ''peach cake
of our German bakeshops is made with
a thin layer of raised biscuit dough,
rolled out till it is not over half an
inch thick. The cake is rubbed with
butter, and sometimes, by the Ger
mans, with lard to prevent hard
crust forming on top. 1t is put in n
baking pan, and even slices of apples
or peaches are laid on it in symmetri-
cal rows, covering the entire top of
the cake, and then the whole is dredged
with sugar. The pan is covered with
tin or iron slide, and the cake is
baked for from twenty-five to thirty
minutes. BY this means the apples
are cooked through delicately without
losing their form and without drying
up, as they would if they were not
covered up, and the raised biscuit
dough underneath is throughly cooked

FRUIT PIE SEASON.

A well-beaten egg, rubbed with bit
of cloth over the lower crust of pies,
will prevent the juice from soaking
through it.
The juice of fruit pies, if thickened
with a level teaspoonful of cornstarch
to pie, will not boil over.
The under crust should be little

If it is fruit pie, dust little flour
on the bottom before putting your
fruit in, and in making pies of fresh
fruits put your sugar in the bottom. -

a midshipman named Hara, be-
longing to the japanese cruiser

morning. There are but few par
ticulars regarding the unfortunate
affair as no one saw the young
man after he left the deck OF the
vessel. According to statements
made by officers on the vessel Hara
was considered a good swimmer,
and was in the habit of going in
the water nearly every day. About
80 o'clock yesterday morning he
informed the watch officer that he
would take q plunge. He un-
dressed aud jumped into the water
He was absent for such length of
time that the PEG pie on deck be-
came anxious about him, and
finally q search was made but
nothing could be seen of the young
man. Everybody took it for grant
ed that he was drowned and their
surmises afterwards proved TO be
correct, az the body was recovered
near the stern of the ship by diver
The officers on board are Of the
opinion that Hara was seized with
cramps while in the water, as he
made no outcry-at least nobody on
deck heard him if be did go. There
was a rumOr current late Yesterday
afternoon TO the effect that one of
