Prunc Soume,

Soak half pound of French prunes
all night; stew them until soft, and
sweeten when half cooked; mash them
and remove the stones. Beat to very
stiff froth the whites of six eggs and
sweeten to taste, then drop in the
prunes, spoonful at time, beating
very hard. Turn the mixture into a
dish, and bake it ten or fifteen minutes.
1t will puff up and must be eaten i'm
mediately, as 1t falls as soon as cool,
or If baked too long, Make soft
custard with the yolks OF the eggs,
serve in sauce pitcher, and pour some
over each portion as it is helped.

Fattening Animals Quickly.


The old saying that time Is money is
doubly true with regard to fattening
animals. There Is no profit in slow fat
tening Of anything. The largest amount
of nutritious food that can be digested
and assimilated is always the most
profitable for the fattening animal. The
food required for maintenance of the
animal to merely keep it in store con-
dition is just so much wasted II no more
than this goes with 1t. This does Lot
mean that fattening animals are to be
given food without limit. That will
injure digestion, and then, no matter
how liberal the feeding, the animal will
not thrive. Old animals are generally
fattened slowly. For this reason their
flesh is tough. But IL they are fattened
quickly, as they may be by combining
some grain with succulent food, their
flesh will have the tenderness and
sweetness that are commonly associ-
ated with the flesh Of young animals.

choicest named varieties, and in the
whole 10: there was but one that he
deemed worthy enough to be preserved.
This was the product Of a cross be-
tween the Chinese Cling and Craw-
ford Early. He bestowed upon 1t the
name Elberta, In honor Of his wife, ana
1t has In turn been an honor to It's name
sake. Knowing something and hoping
more Of its good qualities, he planted
extensive orchards of 1t, from which he
shipped large quantities of choice fruit,
and realized profitable returns. 1t was
not long before other peach growers
learned Of the good qualities Of the
Elberta and began to plant it; first in
the Southern States, where 1t had al
ready proved its value beyond ques-
ton, and then in the northern peach
growing sections. 1t has proved to be
one of the standards In all regions,
from Georgia to Michigan, and from
Connecticut to California.-American
Agriculturist.

Notes.

Grow a small plot in horseradish.
Simply place the roots on top Of the
ground and turn a furrow on them.
They will grow and thrive without fur
Their labor.
A writer In an English paper asserts
that only one steer out Of every 200
shipped from the United States is lost,
while from the River Platte from one
to twenty-five and from Australia from
one to over seven.
1t Is much easier to feed whole grain
than to grind 1t, but 1t is better to put
the labor to it than to lose in the feed.
Ground grain can be more intimately
mixed with coarse food, and in that
respect 1t not only serves to balance
the ration, but the combination Of
foods cheapens the whole and more
perfect digestion results.
If your wheat does not appear prom
Using apply from fifty to 100 pounds
Of nitrate Of soda per acre upon It
The effect will be quickly noticeable,
and the wheat will appear to take on
a new growth at once. The nitrate is
somewhat expensive, but the results
at harvest time will show that the in
creased yield will nearly pay for the
fertilizer.
Sow patch of oats to be cut as green
food. The oats should be cut just as
the seeds are In the milky stage, which
arrests the nutritious matter in the
stalks and renders them palatable.
They are cured the same as is done
with hay. Farmers who use oats In this
manner run them through q fodder
cutter Stalks and heads) and sprinkle
little cornmeal over them. They
are highly relished by cattle and horses.

How to Wash Handkerchief.
Place the handkerchief in warm wa
ter In which there are a few drops
OF ammonia and wash them with CASTLE
soap and rinse In the usual manner.
They should then be squeezed, then
In this thoroughly wet state spread
out on handicapped wash stand,
or, lacking that, on the mirror or win
dow pane, taking care, with the aid Of
another very wet cloth, to spread them
faulty, smoothing out any wrinkles
with the same wet cloth. Should the
handkerchiefs be embroidered they
must be spread with the wrong side
against the marble or glass. The pre-
caution should be taken of wiping or
the marble or glass first In order that
no dirt may spoil the ultimate effect Of
the novel but most efficacious mode
OF ironing. The articles so treated
must be allowed to remain upon the
glass until thoroughly dry, when they
either drop Off of, their own accord or
can be peeled or and folded as desired
They will then be found to have a
smooth, perfect finish, as though fresh
from the hands Of the most accomplish
ed laundress. The best plan is to do
the washing the last thing before re-
firing for the night, as In that way the
handkerchief will be thoroughly dry by
morning. 4
NJ Fish Salad.
One Of the most delicious salads is
made with cold boiled fish, either rock
salmon or shad. Other kinds of fish
can be used, but these particular varie-
ties are the tenderest and richest Re
move all the bones and skin, and pick
up the fish into small pieces. BE sure
to keep 1t on ice some time before
serving. Place the fish in the center,
of the dish on which it Is to be served,
and around the edge arrange a good
quantity of crisp lettuce. The Boston
head lettuce Is the best. Then slice
some ripe tomatoes and place them
on the lettuce leaves. Over the whole
pour mayonnaise dressing. and garnish
with parsley. This is very delicate
salad and makes a welcome variety.

PoIi,s Wonderland Theater.

Announcement is made to-day that Lumiere's cinematograpfe has been se- cured for another week at Polls Won derland theater. This has been done at considerable expense, Mir Keith insist ing on a considerable bonus over the first contract figures, and this expense has been still further enhanced by se- curing almost an entire new collection of views, few if any of the old ones be- ing retained.

ENTERTAINMENTS.
Hyperion.

The program to be given by Magician Kellar at the Hyperion theater tonight will be the same, it is promised, as given at Daly's theater in New York city, during Kellar's long run at that house last spring Kellar is now util- izing the knowledge he gained during years of study in India and the Orient, of the ways of the famous street fakirs of India. The Mahatmas of India de- clare that they possess a power by which they can project their astral bodies to any portion of the earth, at will, and with the speed of thought. Be this as it may, Kellar will show how a girl, locked in a cage on the stage, by committee, can instantly appear in the lobby of the theater and walk down the aisle to the stage, whilst the committee is looking for her in the cage. Duplicate girls? Why, that would be too easy and instantly detect ed if attempted. Kellar delights to tell how this marvel is performed Sale of seats now open.

Grand Opera House.

"A Pair of Jacks was presented at the Grand Opera house last night by Rich and Maeder's comedians to a large and well pleased audience, who seemed to thoroughly enjoy this screaming farce comedy. The perform ance last night ran much smoother than on the previous evening, and those who wish to enjoy a good eve ning's amusement and indulge in a hearty laugh should go and see "A Pair of Jacks" The company includes Charles B. Udell, George H. Ricketts, Sol. Aiken, Dave Andrada, Julia Aiken, Marion Gray, Jessie West, Nora Blan- chard, who are all specially suited for the several roles in which they are seen. There will be a matinee to-day and the engagement closes with the evening performance.
 One of the most picturesque stage settings is that to be seen in Willard Lees production of "In the Heart of the storm which comes to the Grand next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, with matinee Wednesday,. The scene depicted is along the Savan- nah river, an old mill going to decay, the old wheel silent and a resting place for orioles and moclxing birds. Sud
 denly the sun disappears, fierce clouds heave in sight, the waters in the old race churn and foam themselves into angry waves, all gets dark the light ning's vivid flash is see, the thunder's S awful crash Is heard, when suddenly as dame nature is warning with her
 self the dam bursts and the stage is | deluged with an immense volume of
 water that rises to great height. Tn | the midst of the stream struggling to
 save an fmperilled girl is seen a horse- man, his steed in water almost up to his withers, the girl is saved, the flood
 recedes, and dame nature assumes her gentle smile again and a picture of a
 most perfect day is shown.
