A New strawberry shortcake.

Adirondack strawberry y shortcake
makes a tempting supper dish. II re-
quires three pints of Strawberries, n
cupful of sugar, one quart of our milk.
n quart of flour, two eggs, four table,
%spoonfuls of melted butter, two table,
%spoonfuls of soda and one t~easpoonful

til evening, then dissolve the soda in
one tablespoonful of cold water and add
1t to the batter, together with the salt
and the eggs well beaten. Fry this
batter on a griddle like common griddle
cakes, but have each cake the size OF
a tea plate. Butter the cakes as they
conn from the griddle and spread each
with a thin layer Of crushed straw
berries. Sprinkle lightly with sugar.
There should be three griddle X
and three layers Of berries for each
plate, and the shortcake should be
served hot. A dish Of whipped cream
is q pleasant addition.

Silver Shirt Buttons.

Babies buttons. as every mother
knows. come on c%ards-three In a set.
Now there are cards OF buttons for bach
elor girls to wear in their shirt waists,
but instead Of three-chained buttons
there are six, seven or eight on a card.
There are collar-buttons, studs for the
front and studs and buttons for the
cuffs. They are made In silver and gold,
plain, chased n enamelled, and cost
anywhere from 60 cents to $50. Some of
the designs are very neat and some are
very fiashy and inelegant. 1t is begin
ming to look as though pins, machines,
needles and thread and plain sewing
were losing their usefulness. New styles
In ladies' furnishing goods have button
holes, but that's all: for fastenings studs
only are recommended.

All the present moments gain for
municipal reform will be lost this Fall
X New York is to divide at the munich
pal election on straight Republican and
Democratic Ines. The business OF the
hour is to free the city from the bond

can only be accomplished by the united,
vigorous efforts of the best citizens OF
the metropolis. These citizens form a
majority when they stand together.
They are traitors to New York II they

Cooked Cucumbers.

Cucumbers are seldom used except
raw, and yet they are both delicious and
digestible when cooked. The peel should
be removed and the cucumbers should
be boiled until tender, then drained and
sliced, and simmered in good brown
gravy. to which a very little Chill vim
egar has been added, for seven or eight
minutes. Radishes, like cucumbers, can
be served hot as well as in salads. They
should be tied in punches and boiled for
eighteen or twenty minutes, then placed
on toast and covered with white sauce.
Peas, French beans, and sprouts are
greatly improved by being tossed for q
few minutes previous to sending to table
In a saucepan containing a lump Of fresh
butter. a tablespoonful of cream, a pinch
Of castor sugar, n seasoning of pep
per and salt. A rather more simple way
OF treating French beans Is a la Fran
caise: they are put into a pan with q
piece Of butter. the Juice of half q lemon
and a little pepper and salt.

A Dirty Passenger Room"

To the Editor:
The so-called passenger room" Of the Sec

dirty. dreary room ever created for human beings.
The windows are on the stable side and never
opened. as enough odor reaches the room through
them closed. I don't believe the floor has been
scrubbed for ten years past. Passengers wishing
to go to Harlem and who are In a First avenue or
Worth street car are compelled to change cars
there at the depot, and have often to wait sew
eral minutes before a Harlem car transfers them.

for the last year. During that time they have
called steadily. but they have only taken us to

fond Of them. but think we are foolish to deprive
ourselves OF other chances, as we have several
invitations from others to attend the theatre and

to accept them. We ask for an opinion on this
question. The young men are about twenty-one
years old and their salaries are from ,l2 to SIS

will tax the advantage which the holding Of such
a source OF wealth confers upon the monopolizer,

take an amount equal to the surplus which
