Two Good Recipes.

CREAM SAUCE.-One pint of milk,
two tablespoonful of butter, two heap
ing tablespoonfuls of flour, one-h9lf
teaspoonful of salt, little white pepper.
Heat the milk over hot water. Put the
butter in a granite saucepan; when
boiling (not brown) add the dry flour
gradually and stir till we'll mixed. Pour
slowly into this butter and -four the hot
milk, add pepper and salt and stir all
the time until perfectly smooth.
LAMB CRoQUETTEs.-P.epare one
half the rule for cream sauce. When
perfectly smooth, remove from the fire
and stir into it one pint of finely
chopped lamb (he remnant of Tues
days roasD, seasoned with celery salt,
one teaspOOniul of chopped onion, a
little salt, one teaspoonful of chopped
parsley, little pepper, one tablespoon
full of lemon juice. Spread this mixture
on buttered platter. When entirely
cold, form into shape, roll in sifted
cracker crumbs, dip in beaten egg and
then in the crumbs again. Fry to a
golden brown in boiling lard. Drain
on brown paper. Serve hot, garnished
with parsley. Veal, chicken or turkey
may be used instead of lamb. The
croquettes can all be fried at once and
reheated on paper placed in tin in
the oven, the next day. A variety is
secured by serving the croquettes with
canned peas or tomato sauce.-Good
Housekeeping.

Embroidery.

Esrly American crewtl-work was de-
rived directly from En- land, and the
practice OF 1t seems to have been for
the most part confined to the New Eng
land States, the embroidery of the Mid
die and Southern States being of quite
different origin and character. Our
Puritan foremothers brought with them
not On'y the traditions of embroidery,
but a practical knowledge which they
were successful in fitting to the rough
and meager conditions of their lives
These early specimens are Of original
American race, and most of them of
purely domestic origin. The flax for
the webs upon which they were wrought
grew upon the home farm and was
pulled at the elimination of its growth,
and liz the fulness of its blue-eyed
beauty tied into bundles and laid under
the ripples of the nearby brook which
sang it's song in the neighborhood of
most Puritan habitatiOns. Under this
clear quivering current the bundles of
tied fax stems remained until the
thready fbres could be washed or
beaten from the pershable part OF it's
vegetable composition. Then came the
spinning on the small ax-wheel, and
hnslly the weaving into webs of linen,
which were afterward to be stretched
on tle grass beside the stream, and
sprinkled under sunshine and damp
ened with rain and dew until it fulfilled
its destiny and became roll of linen
fit for all the competitive needs of the
Puritan household. The story, as we
get it from our grandmothers, is that
bed-hangings, and other large pieces
were usually made of unbleached linen,
and when that was the case, and the
original constitution of the web was
unimpaired by bleaching, the life of the
good homespun might safely have been
ensured for at least one hundred years
of wear. OF course our prudent fore
mothers need not hesitate to invest
their spare hours upon foundation of
such strength and durability, and they
did not. These suits of bed-curtains
were not by any means an uncommon
possession. Ihave seen scores of them
brought together in collections of
colonial relics, and probably there are
many more which do not often see the
light, even in such collections. Many
of them are embroidered in two shades
of indigo blue, color which was easily
available in every household, the dy
pot of indigo being as indisl ersable a
part of the domestic equipment as the
spinning wheel or the loom
Bazaar.
