HOME HINTS AND HELPS.

strawberry Sirup: Take fresh
Strawberries and inclose in coarse
bag. Press out the juice and to each
quart add one pint of water and six
pounds white sugar. Dissolve by rails
ing to the boiling point and strain.
Bottle and cork while hot, then keep
In a cool place. Western Rural.
Fish Salad: 1t is generally imag,
ined that salmon is the only fish, ex-
cept shell fish, that is good in salad
This is great mistake, for nearly all
kinds of cold fish can be used in this
way, and cold turbot or cod is espe-
cially good. Take the fish, free from
all skin and bone, and cut 1t into
square pieces; arrange a said prettily
in dish with the fish on the top, and
over it pour rich mayonnaise, or sal
ad dressing. Garnish with slices of
tomatoes, hard-boiled egg, and small
pieces of picked gherkins. A said of
this kind is very good, especially in
the summer. Leeds Mercury.
Boiled Salad Dressing: Take the
same quantity of mustard, sugar and
salt as for mayonnaise. Melt table
spoonful of butter and add to these in.
gradients; add two eggs well beaten,
half cup, or four ounces, of vinegar
and half pint of milk. Pour all into
a graniteware double boiler, or large
bowl set in a pot of boiling water, and
stir until it thiclsens like boiled GUS
tard. Remove as soon as it grows
thick or it will curdle. II put in
wide-mouthed bottle or self-sealing
jar, and kept covered, this dressing
will keep for a fortnight or more.
Ladies' Home Journal.
Potato Croquettes: Potato cro-
quettes make pretty dish to serve
with cold meats of any sort. They are
made from fnely-mashed potatoes
whipped with the yollxs of eggs until
very light, then seasoned with pepper,
salt, little onion juice, some finely
chopped parsley, and further moist
ened with little cream. When thor
oughly mixed, heat in double boiler,
and when cool enough to handle form
into croquettes, dip in egg yolk and
cracker crumbs, and drop into boiling
lard. When brown, remove with a
SKINNER, place for a moment on a
sheet of brown.paper, and then remove
in a hot platter; gargish with parsley
and serve.-Farm, Field and Fireside.
Mock Duck: Three good-sized veal
outlets trimmed into neat shape. Have
ready stuffing made of large cupful
of bread crumbs and two tablespoon
fuls of chopped pork, one small onion
chopped fine, a Tablespoonful of butter,
salt and pepper. Roll and tie up the
outlets, after having spread them with
the stuffing. Put them into baking
pan with cold water to cover them;
bake about three-quarters of an hour,
covered closely. When nearly done
take half a cup of gravy, half cup of
water, a tablespoonful of butter and
let them come to boil. Put the
steaks on hot dish, removing the
thread carefully so as not to injure the
shape of the roll. Pour on the gravy
and cover them, adding a teaspoonful
of catchup, a squeeze of lemon, little
salt and pepper, the last thing before
taking up. Chicago Record.

YOU SHOULDN'T DO 1T.

Some Don'ts Laid Down by Those Who
Set the Fashion.
You shouldn't carry flower, lace or
chiffon trimmed parasd IN town except
for carriage use.
You shouldn't allow your dressmaker
to stiffen your summer gowns except
with the very lightest and most pliable
material.
You shouldn't wear high stock col
lars with bows, which make you look
as if your head was tied on-they are
passee.
You shouldn't have your gown meas
ure more than seven yards around the
hem; five and half If you are small,
four and half il you are sensible and
small.
The girls can tell their brothers and
beaux that they shouldn't wear cuff
buttons If they wish to be English,
yoa know" The latest fad is to fasten
the cuffs with bow of narrow black
satin ribbon, leaving the ends about
four inches long.
You shouldn't wear cloth cap in
the summer either for cycling, golf or
tennis. It collects the dust and is very
warm; straw or duck is more up-to-
date aud comfortable. You shouldn't
ignore fashion altogether.
You needn't be in the fashion il you
do not want to and happen to be an
exceptionally pretty woman.
You shouldn't be extreme.
You shouldn't wear tan shoes with .
silk or any dressy gown.
You shouldn't sacrifice your individ.
uality at the shrine of fashion.
You shouldn't wear silk or satin
bodice with linen coat and skirt.
You shouldn't wear floral collar il
your complexion is faded or inclined to
yellowness.
Redfern says you shouldn't wear
boomers without skirt, unlsss you
wish to look vulgar.
You shouldn't wear silk or velvet for
travelling; washable materials or bril-.

A handsome dress of soft satin has
the wide, faring skirt made with many
cores. Each seam has band of fancy
galloon or passementerie extending
the full length from braid to belt.
The waist has an Elton jacket-shaped
upper portion, made of passementerie.
This curves away from the collar to a
point Just below the arm-holes. From
this soft Grape is pulled, forming a full
front, which is in turn held in place by
a passementerie corselet. The sleeves
are of satin and Grape, with points of
passementerie set in at the shoulders
and falling over the sleeve-tops. Skirts
are showing more trimming with every
new importation. One skirt has two
futed ruffies arranged in deep scallops.

STABLE MANAGEMENT.
The Best of ALI Treatment Is to Max
the Horses Comfortable.

The Best of ALI Treatment Is to Make
the Horses Comfortable.
In the one word comfort" is in.
cluded all of the best in stable man
agement, said the writer of an article
in the Edinburgh Veterinary Review
many years ago. His remark will al.
ways remain true. Horses, like men,
require to be made comfortable, and
in providing that they shall be so we
are not only doing them humanitarian
justice, but at the same time promot-
ing their health and rendering them
fit for the work they have to perform.
The space assigned them should be
ample, the atmosphere pure and of
equable temperature and the light
abundant The stable should be dry
and the bedding clean. All that con-
duces to the comfort of man should be
theirs in kind in the way that suits
them best as lower animals The
horse is the most delicate of the higher
quadrupeds in the choice of food and
he should be dieted accordingly. Any
thing may be good enough for some
animals, but not for horse. He de-
lights in sound corn, abhors mildewed
hay and stale mashes, as well as dirty
managers from which to eat. Needless
to say the water he drinks should be
pure and sweet. He should have his
meals also as regularly as the most ex-
acting father of a family. His cloth
ing should be changed with the sea-
sons-heavy in winter, light in sum-
mer. A good horse. well treated, will
repay attention in health, good spirits
and long life. Tho best of all treat
ment is to make him always comfort
able.-London Live Stock Journal

rising from tho center of the metal
back, to which it is rigidly secured,
passes through perforations in each Of
the two pieces of leather, and then a
keeper" hinged to one edge of the
buckle and consisting of square skel-
eton of wire is brought down over
them. The keeper fits into a groove in
the further upright side of the buckle,
which has spring enough to allow this
to be done easily and also to retain the
keeper in place. The inventor thinks
that this device would be a convenient
one for joining third line to double
lines when another horse is to be usec
beside double team. A fly net would
not be likely to catch on this buckle SO
quickly as on the old style.-N. s. Keep

Food Determines Quality.

The food fed to the plant or tree, to
the fruit or flower, to the bird or beast,
determines the quality of the product
II we would havo fine fruit, luscious
berries, beautiful flowers, snowy ever
greens, or prime quality of meat
therefrom, we must feed the food
calculated to produce them, and in
quantities called for. There is botL
superior and inferor quality in all the
products of the farm, and it is regulated
in this way. The time to give vitality
to colt or calf is before it is born
and the same Is true of vegetable prod.
ucts. Quality is determined by vitali-
ty, and both by breeding and feeding.
One can destroy tho vitality to an
animal or tree by starving it.-Rursl

Those Good Old Days.

Now listen to story true, or possibly q
dream,
From days of yore, long, long before this fav-
ored age OF steam,
We always praise those good old days, when
all the world was slow;
And this occurred, as l have heard, some
thousand years ago.
In quiet glen were three old men among the
mountains vast;
They sat and slept, while centuries crept into
the misty past.
The first awoke and softly spoke: IF you
will but allow
A single word, think heard the lowing Of a
cow"
They slept again, these three old men, while
centuries rolled by
And then the next old man seemed vexed, and
oped his heavy eye
Sedate and slow he shook the snow from out
his hoary locks,
Then raised his head and meekly said: 81
think IT was an OK"
Then all was still again, until more centuries
had fed,
And then the third old sage was heard to
scratch his moss-grown head:
He rubbed his eyes in panied surprise and
growIed in accents deep;
"I wish you boys would stop that noise, and
let a fellow sleep"
-Peor Stromme, in Youths Companion.

The Golden Now.

There's time TO wake and d tipe to sleep
A time to labor. a time TO rest;
There's time TO give aud time TO keep,
Ere the hands at last clasp over the breast
And the form is still on the still white bed,
Ere the duh orbs under the lids no more
May kindly lead whore the weary tread
The good we do must be done before
The stars are out, and the night is nigh
Wherein we never may still sigh
some day the hands so quick to caress
win clasp each other no more; some night
The brow that the brown locks love to press
VIII lift no moro in the war for right;
The lips that offer sweet words OF hopo
TO hearts o'erburdened will smile for none
No aid from these for the lost who grope
Through the fog OF sin for their day is done
We may wound or heal, we may soon OF
pray,
But that we would do must be done to-day

BLACK suMATRA FOWLS.

Their Beauty So Great That 1t Over
shadows Their Utility.
One of the rare and most beautiful
fowls in this country is the Black
Sumatra. Rare breeds run the risk of
becoming more rare each year of their
existence, because continued close in
breeding is likely to be followed even
to the verge of extinction, if happily it
does not go beyond the verge and lead
to destruction. The more breeders
the better the opportunities of obtain
ing fresh blood, and the better the
chances of maintaining the vigor of
the breed. 1t is well, however, to re-
member that even closely related fowls,
If bred in widely separated and very
dissimilar places, surrounded by very
