To Make Pot Cheese.

cheese or schmierkase. The milk should
not be over "a hours old and must be curd.
led quickly. 1t the weather is cool, do not
attempt making The cream should be re-
moved imme diately before setting the milk
to heat. Pace the earthen vessel in a pan
of hot water upon the stove, or if the jar has
feet, put stove lid between the jar and the
stove, so that the heat does not come in di-
rect contact with the vessel containing the
milk. Subject toquick heat, or moderately
hot, until the curd forms By cutting in
squares with a case knife, the warm whey
aids coagulation. When the curds appear
crumbling, and when taken between the
fingers, can be crushed-they are sufficiently
cooked. If desired to serve soft, pour into
a colander, and do not drain very dry. Pour
out into an earthen dish, and allow the
curds to stand unsaulted until desired for
serving; then salt very little and mix very
carefully, adding to one pint OF curds, one
half cupful of sweet cream beaten to foam
and stirred in gently. Always USE the day
made.
IT ired to serve in cakes or balls, pour
the curls into bag and submit to pressure.
or into any mods or shapes desired. and
then pour the cream around when served,
one mold to each person. Some people
rinse the curds after straining, but l think
that it renders the cheese indlgestlble, as it
is the whey which is nutritious.

For the Dining Table.

Every housekeeper nowadays has, or
should nave, silence cloth for every day
use as we'll as for special occasions, says the
American Kitchen Magazine. Table pad
ding ,felting or double faced Canton flArnei,
may be found at all the large dry goods
houses, especially Tor this purpose. An old
blanket will answer if new material cannot
be obtained. This silence CLOTH protects the
polished table from scratches. or discolora-
tions from bot dishes or the spiIling of
liquids, saves the wear of the linen cloth
along the edge of the table. and gives it a
richer, heavier appearance; and most i'm
portant of all Its merits, it prevents any
noise in the serving. tits desirable to have
the silence cloth long enough to allow foF
the extra leaf needed on specjal occasions,
and if too long at other times, it can be
pinneo at the corners aroun the table g ..
or you may put several loops on the cloth
and some lacks TO correspond on the inside
of the table frame, and hook the cloth up
out of the way.

A HELPFUL CORNER.
Baby's Short Dresses.

Very dainty are the little dresses seer in
the large furnishing stores, but to those
who must practice economy, they seem
rather expensive.
The materials and trimmings may be
bought for small part of the price asked
for the ready made garment and the work
may be done at home.
Descriptions of few dresses are given to
aid mothers who like variety.
One dress of white lawn with blue dots,
has large square collar OF white lawn. The
points of the collar extend over the sleeves
and to the edge of the yoke, front and back.
wide ruffle edged with narrow lace fin
ishes the edge OF the collar while a narrow
ruffle of lace is used at neck and sleeves.
with feather stitching of blue Asiatic
flo.
Two short dimity dresses have short
Jokes and wide ruffled collars, one round
and the other square. entirely covering the
yoke.
The large sleeves of one are gathered into
cuffs while the others are finished at the
wrists with ruffles. The collars may be
trimmed with a stitching of Asiatic silk,
which does not fade, or with one of the
fancy braids.
One little dress of pink and white check
lawn has short yoke with row of in
sertion between two rows of tucks at each
side of the front.
The full sleeves are gathered into cuffs.
The rolling collar, cuffs, box plat in center
of front and lower edge of yoke are al
decorated with feather stitching of pink
Asiatic twisted embroidery silk.
Another dress of blue and white percale
has longer yoke and a pointed ruffle over
the shoulders. which meets at the edge of

An Autograph Sofa Cushion.

This is pretty piece of needlework
Two squares of white linen of the desired
size of cushion are required. Ask your
friends to write with lead pencil) their
names in large open hand upon one piece
of the linen. When the space Is entirely
filled, (crazy fashior) outline the auto
graphs in shades of J elbow wash silk.
Buttonhole the edges in scallops and work
an eyelet in each. Embroider your mono
gram in the center of the second square of
linen for the other side of the cushion.
Finish the edges Of this in the same man
ner as the first, then lace both together
over a cushion whose four sides are covered
with full stirring of yellow silk.
Use yellow silk cord for lacing, and deco
rate one corner with large bow of wide
yellow satin ribbon.

Photograph Holder.

A pretty and inexpensive box for photo
graphs can be made of six pieces of glass
aud five yards of ribbon. Now that albums
are no longer in vogue it is necessary to
find some kind OF receptacle in which to
place the precious "photos' of absent
friends. Procure four pieces of glass six and
a half by four and half inches, or even a
little larger, and two pieces four and "a half
inches square. Of course if the other pieces
are made larger these end pieces must be
cut accordingly large. The glass can be cut
the required siza at the glass dealers. Bind
each piece with inch wide tape drawing 1t
very smooth and taut and fastening it well
at each corner with stout thread. Then
bind with ribbon any width to suit your
taste. If heavy, strong ribbon is used no
tape need be sewed on first. Fasten the
pieces together at the corners, leaving the
cover open at one side. Finish the four top
corners with bows of ribbon and put on a
small brass ring, which has been button
hold stitched with silk matching the ribbon,
to lift the cover with. When the photo
graphs are put in one can be placed to face
out at each side of the four sides or If not
so desired they may be placed in face to
face compactly. This serves as preserva
tive as we'll as holder.

Men are foolish, and they have foolish

you will become known as a sensible man,
although you may be as weak as any body.
Most people make the mistake of talking
too much. If you can acquire the habit OF
keeping your mouth shut it will be a good
habit that will be OF the greatest benefit.

Sunday Bicycling.

Everywhere has published very sensible
editorial on the Sunday Bicycler and we
wish our readers to get the benefit of it. 1t
says:
what can we do to stop Sunday bicy.
cling? said a prominent clergyman the
other day. my road to church lies along
a wide extended avenue, paved with
asphalt. smooth as floor; and can count
hundreds of these Sabbath riders in few
minutes. They are on their way to the
country-to the seashore--to friends houses
to all sorts Of Places except church. There
are Neutrality-suspicious. and other mal-at-
fractions on the way. Not one of them will
by any chance happen into place of wor
ship this morning. When night comes ;,
even if they have yet arrived home, they
will think that they are too tired to attend
evening meeting. What shall we, what can
we do with them?
''Some say that law should be passed to
forbid bicycling on Sunday. hardly think
that would be constitutional; and even if it
were, no legislator would like to get the
enmity of a wheeing.pubIic so strong that
it is compelling the railroads in some states
to carry their machines free. They will
ride, in spite of all we can do; how can we
reach them with good spiritual advice and
sound theology, when they can skip away
from us at the rate of fifteen miles, an
no r?"
1--WE must have church, at the end of
every bicycle PATH" replied deacon, who
was walking by the clergyman's side. IA
church where can be heard good and bril-
liant preaching, such as you could give
them, pastor and fine, artistic heart
nourishirg music, such as our choir al
present discourses so we'll. A church where
they can sit in their bicy Gle clothes from
which they can go and come as they like;
where they may sit for an hour or so, get
what good they can, and 90 on with the
ride-which is, after all, only a Sunday
walk in the air.
Henry Ward Beecher said, years and
years ago, when that first little veJccipede-
craze flashed over the country. that he ex-
pected some day 10 see hundreds of his
Pensioners coming to meeting Of Sabbath
morning, on the wheel. Bat nobody goes
to Plymouth church ON bicycles: any one in
riding suit would be stared at and
tabooed. They cannot spoil their best
clothes On a machine; and SO the churches
fail to get them.
Have a church where bicycllsts can sit
in their bicycle suits, or make it the thing
to do so in those already established, and
you will have larger congre cations"

Spanish Banana Salad.

The famous Spanish banana salad is made
by slicing the fruit with silver fork and
placing it in layers in deep glass dish each
layer alternating with one of finely cracked
ice and powdered sugar. Over this is
poured adressing of orange juice, sweetened
and favored with little vanilla, and the
whole is set on the ice for two hours before
serving.
