Best Cooks Quickly "Set" the Surface and
Than QpIv Simmer

Best Cooks Quickly "set" the Surface and
Then Only Simmer.
Boiling is a branch of culinary art
that is understood by comparatively
few cooks, although it is generally
supposed to be the most simple form of
cookery known.
Actual boiling as applied to meats
very rarely occurs, excepting for a few
minutes at a time, and then at the be-
ginning of cooking. When these few
minutes are over, the aim of the expert
enced cook is to keep meats that are to
be boiled from boiling, and to let them
simmer until done, for as surely as the
meat boils it will be spoilt. A good
rule for boiling is the following:
Fresh meat, fresh poultry. fresh fish,
all alike, should be plunged into as
much boiling water as will co-er them.
Boil quickly three or four minutes in
the case of meat, one minute in the
case of fish, then draw the kettle back,
add a little cold water to reduce the
heat, and keep it covered, and let the
contents simmer only until done.
The quick boiling "sets' the surface
of the meat, which keeps in the flavor
and goodness, while the inner portion
is gently cooked until done; this is all
the boiling" needed.
When really boiled, fresh meat is
tough.aud favorless. so that to 'boil'
meat successfully it should not be boiled
at all.
That fresh meat should invariably be
put into boiling water, and salt meat
into cold. is another rule worth remem-
bering. Salt should always be added
to the water for fresh meats.-N. Y.

man to another.
Never ii | can help it," was the re-
ply. This household music fad has,
In my opinion, been worked out. The
average girl who has piano and takes
lessons spends great deal of money
and an incalculable amount OF tin o to
learn only enough music thoroughly
to murder everything she tries TO play.
She keeps at it for year or two while
she is ylung, but as soon a. she gets
old enough to appreciate the fact that
time and enc gy are worth something,
she locks up her piano and there is an
end OF 1t. She usually spends the rest

MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
DONALD KENNEDY, OF ROXBURY, MASS,

Has discovered in one of our common
pasture weeds a remedy that cures every
kind of Humor, from the worst Scrofula
down to common Pimple.
He has tried it in over eleven hundred
cases, and never failed except in two cases
(both thunder humor). Hehas now in his
possession over two hundred certificates
of its value, all within twenty miles of
Boston. Send postal card for book.
A benefit IS always experienced from
the first bottle, and perfect cure IS war
ranted when the right quantity IS taken.
When the lungs are affected it causes
shooting pains, like needles passing
through them; the same with the Liver or
Bowels. This is caused by the ducts being
stopped, and always disappears in week
after taking it. Read the label.
If the stomach Is foul or bilious it will
cause squeamish feelings at first.
No change of diet ever necessary. Eat
the best you can get, and enough of it.

time. Sold by all Druggists.

of all cases of consumption can, If taken in
the earlier stages of the disease, be cured.
This may seem like a bold assertion to
those familiar only with the means gener-
ally in use for its treatment as, nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy emulsions, extract
of malt, whiskey, different preparations of
hypophosphites and such like Pallidffves.
Although by many believed to be incura-
bic, there is the evidence of hundreds OF
living witnesses to the fact that, in all its
earlier stages, consumption Is durable
disease. Not every case, but a large per.
cenkage of cases, and we believe, /nIly o6
per cent are cured by DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed so far as to induce repeated
blecdings from the lungs, severe lingering
cough with copious expectoration (includ-
ing tubercular matter), great loss OF flesh
and extreme emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease? You need not take
our word for 1t. They have, in nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis-
strongly prejudiced and advised against
a trial of Golden Medical Discovery, !"
but who have been forced>to confess that
IL SURPRISES, in curative power over this
fatal nalady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for
a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey
and various preparations of the .hypophos-
phites had also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of large number of
those cured of consumption, bronchitis,
lingering coughs, asthma, chronic nasal
catarrh and kindred maladies have been
skillfully reproduced in a book OF 100
pages which will be mailed to you, on re-
ceipt of address and six cents in stamps
You can then write those cured and learn
