THE COOKS OBTAIN.
Hints From the Notebook of an Exc
perienced Chef.

Don't throw away lemon or orange
peel. Instead, writes chef, in the
New York World, keep it for kindling
the fire. Put the Feelings under the
stove in tin pans, and let them dry
thoroughly, and then they are ready
to kindle the FIRE.
In cooking it is we'll to remember
that soda should never be dissolved in
hot water, because if it is some of the
gasses would then be liberated and
wasted, and a greater amount of soda
would be needed to make good this
waste than if the soda were dissolved
in cold water.
Banana charlotte makes good des-
sert and one capable of being prepared
in bury. Line the sides of a quart
mold with slices of sponge cake.
Cover the bottom of the mold with
thick layer of sliced banana. Fill
the mold with stiff whipped cream
and set aside in the ice box until want
ed, then remove carefully from the
mould and serve.
Lobster coral is the means of furnish
ing red mayonnaise when desired.
Dry the coral, pound it to a powder
and rub it through sieve, and mix it
with little lemon juice and add if to
the mayonnaise.
II bird or meat is to be dredged
with -four, salt should be put on be-
fore it is cooked. but the rest of the
seasoning is not to be added until it is
taken from the fire.
Here is a dish which will delight
the children. Bake several pancakes
as large as plate. Butter and cover
them with maple syrup. Pile them
one on another and cut like pie.
In preparing soup stock remember
that the less fat there is in the stock
pot the more delicate will be the flavor
of the soup Cut off as ,nuch fat as
possible before putting the meat into
the pot. A delicate flavor of ham will
improve the stock, but it must be
very slight. An ounce of ham to a
gallon of water is generous allow

The way to correct this condition is
to improve the digestion. The con-
dition ARISES from an inability to eat
and digest food. In fact food does
more harm than good because it fer
ments and putre6es in the stomach,
developing poisonous substances
which when absorbed caused various
disorders.

HOROSCOPE FOR 1890.
There Will Not Be War, But Things
Almost as Bad.

The horoscope of a nation or coun-
| try is cast, under the rules formu-
lated by Ptolemy-the final author
| ity on astrology-for the moment Of
time of the conjunction of the sun and
moon next preceding the vernal equi-
nox, and for the capital of the coun-
try under consideration This horo-
scope is therefore cast for Washington,
D. c., 1896, March IA, $50 a. m,
when the "Neomenia, or new moon,
occurs in the zodiacal sign Pisces, "a
deg. 20 min. The festival of this an
nual new moon was celebrated by the
pagans and Israelites, both with great
ceremony. Allusion is made to it in
Sam'l Xxx S, 6.
The briefest summary of the ma
tivity of the year 1896 is all that will
be attempted in the present instance.
None but those versed in astfoiogy
would understand reference to the pc
sitions and aspects of the planets
which go to its fulfillment.
1t may be promised that the United
States will engage in no wars other
than that which will probably occur
in Congress, but which will there be
bitter and obstinate. as will also be
the case in the political conventions
The general climatic condition in
dicates much moisture and but little
extreme heat or cold. Financial af
fairs promise to improve, in so fai
that products and the general con
dition of the people will be much
more satisfactory than in 1895. The
government will be strong and vel
sustained and its finances become
more stable. In particular, there viii
be extensive and fruitful speculation
in all directions; sports and amuse
ments, pleasure of ali kinds will -four
| ish.
But there is a dark side to this
picture. Crime, and that of the mos
terrible and inexplicable character
will abound, and especially by and
against women. There will be cpl
iemics of burglary and defalcation
Of which recent events are simply
premonitory symptoms. Then there
will be vast and costly conf1agrations
railroad accidents and losses on the
sea to an extent much greater thar
common. There will be much sick
ness of feverish sort, and not i'm
probably summer epidemics. There
will be many deaths among the high
est in the land.
Whatever international disputes
may afflict or annoy the government
will be in this hemisphere. What
ever domestic troubles occur will bt
in connection with labor, and strike.
will be prevalent. There will b.
serious floods and earthquakes abou
midsummer and at the close of the
year, and in the autumn terrible dis
asters, fires, accidents of all sorts ant
general increase of crime.-N. Y

A more important issue than that
lover the venezuelan boundary may
soon be raised between the Uuited
States and Great Britain, If recent re-
ports from Nicaragua are confirmed by
later developments.
The substance OF these reports, sus.

A GREAT INVENTION.

The latest thing in the way OF an
invention is the flying bicycle. 1t is
said that while a man is on this ma
chine he can soar several feet high for
several hundred yards. The invention
will be used most commonly at cross
ings, hills, rivers, toll gates, and fer
ries. Well only suffer from the geniur
invention. The wheel will doubtless
meet the commentator of those who
will not ride bike, and also those
who are too timid to ride bikes fol
fear of accidents and etc. at crossings
and are not so gifted as to want tC
pull up long hill on a common bike.
The only danger that can be en-
countered is that one whcelman may
meet another in mid air, but somt
remedy for this is even possible. An
other consideration about the flyinl
bike Is it is said can be constructed
much cheaper than the high grade
wheels used now, but while this ma.
be true it hardly looks reasonable. |
this masterpiece Of invention work
according to specifications it vii
doubtless suit everybody, and tn
time may not be far distant when W
will see whcelmen In the air as we Sc
tlOcks Of birds now.
