How to Quiet Violent Horses.

According to Il recent discovery Ii
has been found that it is quite enough
to touch the nostrils of horse, simply
passing the fingers along the sides Of
his nose, to stop the activity of his
heart and respiration, ard to stop con-
seriousness in a measure. 1t is well
known now that most OF those men
who succeed in quieting violent horses
put their fingers to that part and some
times inside the mares. Merely touch
ing these parts may produce the same
effect: pressing hard has more effect.

Foreign Particles in tho Eve.

AS the summer is the season of travel,
and accidents to the eye are apt to oc-
aur from dust and cinders, a simple
remedy for removing foreign particles
from the eye will be found useful
Oculists are not always procurable in
small places, SO it is well for the tourist
to provide against accidents. A small
package of faxseed will be found USE
full. If cinders or dust render the eye
painful, place a flaxseed under the lid
of the eye and close it; the mucilage
which exudes from the seed alleviates
the irritation, and the Objectionable
particle is apt to attach itself to the
gelatinous seed, so that when it is re-
moved the cinder or particles of dust
are also removed.-Godey's Magazine.

was succeeded by others who erected
the dome and completed the wings, in
harmony with the original design.
The editor referred to above says that
the architect who spoiled the Pennsyl-
vania avenue front between Fifteenth
and Seventeenth streets, instead of
repeating as nearly as possible the
treasury facade on the other side of the
white house, which would have made a
group unrivaled in the world, throws
away this splendid artistic opportunity,
and, to the irreparable loss of the coun-
try and of art, thrusts upon us a costly
concoction of stone, sheet iron and slate,
ugly, inconvenient and expensive to
keep in repair, which even in his own
eyes, could hardly have had any other
merit than the fact that he invented it.
But this work has been done, and cannot
be undone. The example, however,
should be a sufficient deterrent of
future grotesqueness in the architect

WOMAN AND HOME.
BADGES OF MATRIMoNY.
Worn by Women Everywhere, Except Ii
the United States.


Worn by Women Everywhere, Except in
the United States.
Americans are the only women in the
world who do not exhibit some sign of
matrimony. Of course those who fol-
low in the wake of European etiquette
would not appear with their daughters
wearing a hat without strings, but the
universal American woman buys what
she likes, regardless of whether it be
matronly or not and, what is worse,
her daughters will select articles of
dress only suitable to married women.
In no other country is this the case.
Among the Germans the badge of
married woman consists Of little cap
or hood of which she is very proud, and
"donning the cap" is the feature of the
wedding day among the peasants of
certain localities.
The married women in Little Russia
are always seen, even in the hottest
weather, with a thick cloth of dark
hue twisted about their heads. In New
Guinea young woman lets her hair
hang about her shoulders, but when
she is married this is cut short. In
Wadai the wives color their lips by
tattooing them with iron filings; in
parts of Africa, the married women
perforate the outer edges of their ears
aud their lips and stick rows of grass
stalks in them; and among a certain
Mongolian tribe of people, the Manthes,
the women wear suspended from one
ear a little basket full of cotton, to
which spindle is attached. Thus in
every country, savage and civilized, but
our own, there is IL sign or symbol of
some kind that distinguishes the matron
from the spinister. Louis Republic

to interest themselves in her fan. A

Trunks as veranda Seats.

If your country house is unpreten-
tious in size and there are more trunks
to be stored away than there are rooms
to accommodate them, let one or two of
them stand on the veranda. Unpack
them first, and if they are round-topped
trunks have carpenter to make fat
board cover to put over the rounded
top SO that they may be upholstered
and made into comfortable seat.
Denim is the best material to use for
this purpose, as its wearing capacity is
great. The top of the board cover
should be cushioned comfortably and
then deep valance of the denim hung
from the cover to the bottom, entirely
screening the trunk from view.

ABOUT CAKE-MAKING.
Some Hints Which Housewives Would Do
Wen to Remember.

Some Hints Which Housewives Would Do
Well to Remember.
There are many people who think
they have fulfilled their duty as cake
bakers if they present light cake.
Yet light cake may be as complete a
failure as heavy one. 1t may be per-
fectly risen, yet hard or dry and
feathery, like so many bakers cakes,
suggesting nothing but sawdust. A
perfect cake is delicate and moist in
texture, and of such constituency as to
fulfill the old housewives phrase and
"melt in the mouth" No cakes made
by baking powder are quite as tender
and moist as those risen with cream
tartar and soda or with eggs alone. 1t
is easy enough to make cake tough
by overbeating at one stage or under
beating at another. Where butter and
sugar are used, they must be thorough
ly creamed together, and the we'll
beaten yollIs of the eggs added. The
milk must now be put in by degrees. IL
it is poured in too rapidly the cake will
surely curdle, and it is impossible to
make a cake of fine grain from
curdled mixture. When the cake has
eggs must be beaten to a stiff froth,
but not to too tough froth or the cake
will have leathery constituency.
A large majority of cakes arc
spoiled at this stage by toughening the
white. 1t is unsafe to use any of the
patented beaters, because with such a
beater it is an easy matter to beat the
egg too much. The old-fashioned
whisk, or spoon, of fine wire, which
costs about five or six cents, is the
safest and best egg-beater. Patented
beaters are invaluable for beating salad
dressing and for many other purposes.
Beat the whites merely long enough
for them to cling to the inverted whisk.
Add them to the cake after the flour,
folding them in with slender wooden
spoon, which is used by all the best
cakemallers to stir cake. When the
whites of the eggs have been put in the
oven should be ready. There should
be strong body of fire, but the heat
should be turned off so that the oven is
only moderately hot. Put in the cake
carefully, and take care that it raises in
the pan before it begins to brown.
When it is fully risen, increase the
heat A loaf of ordinary cake of av-
erage size will bake in forty or fifty
minutes. Loaf cake will take an hour
or an hour and quarter. A pound
cake ought to bake very slowly for two
hours, and fruit cake should be baked
four hours.-N. Y. Tribune.
