Paris five sous pair is the market

pair cut OF at the usual joint was
plunged for minute perhaps in boil
ing water, then taken out and, with a
sharp kitchen knife, quickly skinned,
the tough wrinkled cuticle peeling off
almost like a glove. The toe nails were
then cut of and the feet thus entirely
clean were ready for use. They should
be boiled six or eight hours in pint

in gelatinous matter and the stock
made from them is q cheap and strong

Iniurlous Gosslp.

d
Two girls ask these questions: What
is the most injurious sort of gossip and
who is the most objectionable and dam
gerous person in community? An
swer: All unkind and untruthful Cos
sip is dangerous to somebody's peace
of mind. It may not do any very great
harm, but it makes its victim very un-
comfortable and oftentimes very I'M
happy. There is, however, one sort OF
gossip so malicious that it deserves
the execration and contempt of all de-
cent people, and that is the insinuating
sort of malice that says just enough
to suggest and not enough to furnish
any chance for confronting or punish
ing the speaker. The man or woman
who hints evil or says halfway joking
things that start evil thoughts in the
minds of others lis unfit for decent
people to associate with. They should
be banished from the society of their
fellows and punished as they deserve
with the loss of all respect and con-
sideration of those about them. The
insinuating circulator of falsehoods is
the blacklist of criminals and deserves
a hangman's rope. Society is power
less, and law, as it now stands, seems
unable to mete out suitable punishment
to these offenders.

Spinach and Bacon.

Spinach served with bacon and eggs
is very often served with tongue. Wash
and pick over about half peck Of
spinach. throw it into boiling water.
and when 1t has boiled ten minutes
drain and chop it. Meantime chop fine
bundle Of spring onions and fry them
in butter; mix them with the spinach.
Put large tablespoonful of butter in
a saucepan and put in the spinach and
onions with salt and pepper. Add also
cup Of rich, brown gravy. Two tea
spoonfuls of beef extract melted in a
cup of water will do in place Of the
gravy. Let the spinach stew for about
twenty minutes with the gravy or
stock until the liquor has been nearly
absorbed. Meantime fry in crisp roll
six or more thin slices Of bacon and six
eggs. Turn out the spinach In hot
platter and surround 1t with the bacon
and eggs.

Flora, Sum shades.


The new parasols follow the hat
vogue in being very fully trimmed with
flowers. One. for example, is caught
with great punches of daisies, with
their clusters of silvered leaves. This
parasol cannot be entirely closed.
Another, not Powered one, has puffs
of chiffon running around it, the puffs
being separated by tiny bands of black
velvet ribbon. "A big chiffon rufae falls
over the edge. A very new way of u.s.
ing flowers is to make floral handles.
A bunch of violets made of some paste
material, and carefully covered, formed
the handle of gold and white parasol,
and there are many carved wood sticks,
painted like flowers. Some Of these are
small and fine; others make a single
big red rose Of an Easter lily. Gold
tinsel over white satin is very much
used. Old white satin parasols may be
brought out and treated to dress Of
gold at small expense. Dresden rib
bons are much used. An immense bow
to match the heart of the daisies was
placed upon parasol trimmed with
punches of these flowers.

Dairying is not springstde's only IN

shire hogs. and have fine lot Of in
dividuals that are raised at q very low
figure. Our method is as follows: All
brood sows are kept in thirty-acre
wood pasture with running water, and
during the time Of abundant grass they
receive no grain feed, but are given any
surplus milk from the creamery when
the pigs come. which is in March, April
and May. We add bran to the pasture
and allow the pigs the run of pasture
till cool weather in fall. Then the
choice breeding animals are selected
and the remainder put up in close pens
and finished for pork. We have no
sickness among the hogs here, and
have no trouble to make pigs weigh
600 pounds and over at six months.

have attained the same reputation as
the butter. Our chickens are Matched
in incubators, and with entire success
both as to number and quality. We use
d non-sitting breed SO that the hens
cannot be depended on to sit. We have
found the first week Of a chickens life
is the time to make either broiler or
layer. That Is, 1t must be started
right. AS soon as our chicks are dry
we remove them to brooder, pre-
viously thoroughly warmed, and do not
feed them for thirty-six hours. Then
we give them rolled oat meal dry for
three or four days, then add millet
seed. corn meal and dry grain. We
never give chickens wet or sloppy food.
We keep the heat in the brooder up to
IS or 100 degrees for the first week.
The bottom Is covered with sand and
gravel. We keep finely pulverized egg
shells before them as well as charcoal,
give plenty Of water and skim milk to
them, but do not let them wet them
selves. We use q fountain made of q

Suppose the claims of oleomargarine
people were true that their product is
just as good as butter, as healthful as
butter, and but for restrictive laws
would sell as we'll as butter, what
would be the result to the farmer?
Counting 80 pounds per capita per
year as the butter consumed by the
average American, farmers find sale for
e,100 ,000, 900 pounds per annum. This
at the low price of 1879 cents per pound
brings them in $262,500,000 net, says
the Chicago Produce. Let us suppose
that oleomargarine should supplant
butter. The farmer, receiving but
about cents as his part of the pro-
ceeds Of the sale Of pound Of oleo-
margarine, would only obtain $4,000
900 where before he received $262, $780,
900. The balance would go into the
hands Of the middleman, and manu-

most as the value Of each years wheat

Let It Sail Under It's Own Color. An
attempt has been made to represent the
vigorous crusade against the illegal
sale Of oleomargarine as being in
spired by the selfish motives Of dealers
IN genuine butter and the claim is wide
spread that oleomargarine is really bet
ter and more healthful than genuine
butter. The first assertion is absolute
~ false. No one interested in the en-
forcement Of the oleomargarine laws
cares one whit how much oleomarga-
rine is sold and consumed provided 1t
is sold for what 1t really is. No one
can object to persons whose tastes ap-
prove oleomargarine buying It,. But
the issue at stake In the present agita-
ton is to compel the sale Of the stun
for what 1t is and prevent It being sold
to ignorant purchasers when they call
for genuine butter and are made to pay
the prevailing prices asked for that
article.-Ex.
