is a sensational scene in the ringing OF the

the hero from being executed at the ring

her hands to deaden its sound. She is
seen by the audience swinging from the

HOME HINTS AND HELPS.

Molly Puffs: One cupful Of Indian
meal scalded in about a pint of boiling
water; when it cools add two cupfuls
Of rye meal. two eggs, one tablespoon
full of brown sugar, and a small half
t~easpoonful of soda, a little salt; fry
them, dropped from a spoon, in boiling
lard.-Good Housekeeping.
Time to Cook Meat: A beefsteak
cut an inch thick will be cooked ARE
in ten minutes. A mutton chop cut
three-fourths of an inch thick will
cook in eight minutes. Veal and pork
must be broiled slowly and for a long
time. There should not be a trace of
pink in the ibers when the meat is
done. The chops should not be cut
more than half ar inch thick. They
will be well done with twelve minutes
cooking.-Western Rural.
Veal Loaf: Take three pounds of
chopped veal, half pound of salt
pork chopped fine, three eggs. six soda
crackers, rolled fine, a teaspoon of salt,
pepper and sage. When all the ingre-
dients are added, knead as you would
bread. Make in the form of a loaf.
spread over with egg, and dust cracker
crumbs over it. Put it in a pan,a add
half a cup of water and haste often.
Bake slowly two or three hours. Let
stand until cold and slice.-House-
keeper.
-Scrapple: Boil a well-cleaned pigs
head in plenty of water for four or FIVE
hours, until the meat will slip easily
from the bones, chop the meat fine and
return to the liquor from which the fat
has been skinned, season highly with
pepper, salt and sage, if liked, add
corn meal till the consistency of mush;
cook slowly for an hour or more, pour
in pans and set in a cool place. This
will answer in place of meat, is nice
sliced and fried. Instead of a pigs
head, a ''meaty'' beef bone may be
boiled.-Orange Judd Farmer.
Pork and Beans: Soak one quart
dry beans owe night, pour off the wa
ter in the morning and cover with
fresh in which is a pinch of soda. Let
the beans boil in this five minutes,
drain and pack in a bean pot. Put on
the top n pound of salt pork that
has been slightly p%arboiled, cover with
water in which half a cup of molasses
has been stirred, set in the oven and
bake slowly until the beans are soft
not mushy. A dyspeptic can eat beans
cooked in this way and feel no bad eff
fects afterward.-Mrs. Boardman, in
Farm and Home.
Orange Souffle: Four large oranges,
six eggs, three heaping tablespoonful
of sugar, q pint and a half of rich milk.
Peel, slice and seed the oranges and
place them upon the bottom of a dish
you wish to send to the table, and
sprinkle over them a heaping table
spoonful of sugar. Make a custard of
the yolks of the eggs, the milk and the
remainder of the sugar. Set aside to
cool, and when cold pour over the
sliced oranges. Beat the whites of the
eggs to a stiff froth, add a spoonful OF
powdered sugar; spread this over the
pudding and set in the oven and brown
slightly.-Boston Budget.

A Flock for the Family.

Leaving out the matter of profit and
of selling eggs. there is much pleasure
in keeping a small flock of fowls for
family use. A few hens can be kept at
less cost, proportionately. than can a
large number, owing to the fact that
the scraps from the table are valuable.
No labor of consequence is necessary,
and when an account for the year is
kept the small hocks will be found to
have given quite a profit in the CONVEX
sion of the waste material into eggs.
There is no way to procure eggs as
fresh and nice as those produced by
your own Hens. If they are of a choice
breed, the pleasure will be the greater,
as wei. from pride in endeavoring to
excel as from the management.-Farm
and Fireside.

Absorption of Odors by Milk.

Parville relates some interesting
facts upon this subject. If a can of
milk is placed al an open vessel con-
tanning turpentine. the smell of the
turpentine is soon communicated to
the milk. The same result occurs as
regards tobacco, paraf6ne, a~safoetida,
camphor and many other strong
smelling substances. Milk should also
be kept a distance from every volatile
substance, and milk which has stood
in a sick chamber should never be
drunk. The power of milk to disguise
the taste Of drugs-as potassium
iedide, opium. salicylate, etc.-is we'll
known.-London Public Opinion.

New Dress Materials Women Will Wear in
the Coming Season.
The new crepons are so varied in de-
sign and beautiful in coloring that
they battle description. One of the lat
est novelties has an ecru ground which
resembles canvas, with crinkled silk
stripes of two or three subdued colors
woven on it's surface, crossing and re-
crossing to form a large plaid, which
is all very modest in coloring, but
snowy in effect. Many shades of one
color are prettily blended on the sur
face; two colors in strong contrast are
woven together. while other crepons
have dots and spots of b~right-colored
silk to further emphasize the deep Grim
kles-
Summer silks show the creped effect
which has come to be a reigning fea-
ture of all dress goods, and are either
crinkled in stripes of various widths or
all over.
The new taffetas are striped with
satin and covered with dots and pretty
chine designs, and those of neutral
tint on pale grounds have pretty Wat
teau patterns of sprays and garlands
of flowers scattered over their surface.
Watered grounds are also fashionable.
Among the novelties in washable
goods are robe gowns of grass linen,
deep ecru in color, and beautifully en-
%broidered in open-work scroll and
lowered designs. There are also dain-
ty cclored batistes embroidered with
white in deep points, which lap over a
wide hem of batiste of a contrasting
color, such as tan over pale green,
pink over blue. These robe gowns are
very stylish for seaside wear. and
where applique embroidery is en-
ployed cost as much as forty-five dol
lars, but simpler patterns a be
bought for twelve dollars
Diagonal materials of both plain and
mixed %colors, and in great variety as
TO the width of the diagonal, are to be
worn for spring gowns, and wooden
goods, in canvas and basket effects,
are to be made up in tailor dresses.
Round waists will continue in favor
through the coming season, except
perhaps for stout women, to whom
they are not very becoming, and all
sorts of beaded Jokes, spangled and
finished on the edge with jet caboch-
ons, are used for their decoration.
The latest bonnets for evening and
afternoon wear are, in most instances,
all black, made with black crowns or
shapes of net closely spangled, and
trimmed with rosettes of net and NOUS
seline de sole beaded on the edge, and
gauzy wings of wired mousseline, with
spangies. Where 1owersare used they
are made in the from of rosettes.
Ostrich-feather tips are used at the
side of collar bands, instead of the
loops of ribbon, with great effect.
Pretty tea jackets are made of nuns
yelling in pale colors, lined with silk
and trimmed with open work en-
broidery over the silk and the yelling
fitted on below makes a charming
jacket.
Large butterflies of jet and spangles
are worn on the front of bodices at the
belt so large that they will reach from
side to side and reach well down the
