A HELPFUL CORNER.

In conversation with a model little
mother recently on the subject of
childtraining, she laid before us an
excellent plan which we offer to
those who are interested in develop
ing good manners in their children.
We believe we voice the sentiment of
all mothers, when we claim this for
them. She spends sometimes an hour
with her children in the dainty par
lor, teaching them how to entertain
when visitors come into the home.
She related amusing incidents of
hardships experienced at first, and
how they protested, but bringing a
little tact into play with the train
ing she claims to be succeeding ad-
mirably.

For the Household Department.:
A Foot Stool.


A very pretty and inexpensive foot
stool may be made of a board one
foot square (the end of an orange
box will do) and four baking powder
cans.
Nail the covers of the cans firmly
to the board near the corners, then
fill them with plaster Paris mixed
with water to the consistency of
pancake batter, and force the tops
of the cans into the covers. This part
of the work must be done quickly as
the plaster Paris will soon harden.
Before pressing the tops into the COW
ers make hole with a nail in the
bottoms of the cans to let the air out.
Leave until the next day when the
can legs will hold solid.
Paint the cans brown or black and
make a cushion to fit the top of the
stool, lacking it around the edge of
the board.
Make a cover of any suitable mate
rial. The best part of an old broad
cloth coat, piece of gray water
proof, blue denim or brown linen
will do very well.
With Asiatic Roman floss outline a
bunch of ferns on the linen or water
proof, Or golden rod on the broad
cloath or denim. Tack the cover over
the cushion and finish the edge with
linen fringe for the linen cover, a
double strip of denim raveled for a
denim cover, and for the broadcloth
or waterproof cover a strip of the
cloth slashed nearly across to form
fringe.
Furniture fringe is best if one has
it, but the substitutes mentioned
look very we'll.
If the top of the stool is painted
like the legs, the cushion may be
made like a pillow and tackled only
at the corners. In this way no fringe
is required but the seam at the edge
should be covered with a thick cord.
This may be a small rope covered
with cloth matching the color of the
embroidery and sewed into the seam
like a piping cord.

Tempting Breakfasts.

Most of our housekeepers agree
that breakfast arranging is the sor-
est trial of the three meals to be
served and how to arrange for va1ie-
ty takes much careful thought.
AS a sister says:
No other menu is so apt to fall into
ruts as that served in the morning
At the demonstration lecture Janu-
airy 9Th, at the Boston cooking school
Miss Farmer prepared the following
breakfast dishes:
Broiled sausages, fried apples,
hominy mush, fried hominy, fadges,
eggs la Buckingham, omelet, mine
ed mutton.
Most cooks know that sausages
should be pierced before cooking else
they will burst open and break in
pieces. 1t is better to do this with Il
small skewer than with a fork, not
sparing the missions. Sausages may
be put in broiler and broiled direct
ly over the fire like a steak, or more
conveniently in the oven. First put
them in the dripping pan for few
minutes until some of the fat has
started, then lay them in a broiler
across the top of the dripping pan
and cook six or eight minutes. Ar
range on a platter and serve with
fried apples laid round as a border.
Do not pare apples for frying as they
will break more easily. Wipe, core
and cut sour apples into one half
inch slices across the whole apple.
Fry in pork fat until soft and brown
ed on both sides.
The directions on most cereals
which come in packages call for too
short a time for cooking. 1t is safe
to allow four times as much water as
cereal. Hominy is made from white
corn and is either fine, which will
cook in an hour, coarse which re-
quires much longer or samp that will
take all day. Put one cup of fine hon.
my into a quart of boiling water, add
a teaspoonful of salt and gradually
sift in one cup of fine hominy; cook
one hour in a double boiler Serve
with sugar and cream. If there is

Surely it is ignorance in a large
measure, on the part of mothers, that
the children are no more advanced
than we are. We are interested in
child study and nothing is so sacred
in our eyes as the development of
such a life. To help develop such "a
precious charge takes a life long
study and each day brings up new
lines of thought. We would impress
this matter upon the young mothe.' s
of today.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1897-01-27

for that meal, as 1t can now be COOK
ed the evening before and reheated
as well as some other cereals. For
frying pack this hominy mush into
one pound baking powder boxes,
which have either been wet in cold
water or buttered lightly. Pour
little cold water on top after it has
cooled little or cover it to prevent
skin forming. Turn form the
mould cut into thin slices and fry
until crisp in a little pork fat in
hot frying pan. Serve with maple
sugar. 1t is good plan to empty
all cereals, from the boxes in which
they come, into glass jars. Fadges
are but another name for an eggless
popover. Have iron gem pans heated
very hot and if you are buying new
pans select the round instead of OBJ
long shape. Take one cup of en-
tire wheat flour, which is very diff
ferent from coarse graham, and add
gradually one cup of cold water beat
ing all the time with a Dover egg
keep on beating, the longer the bet
ter, because the cakes are to be made
light by the air enclosed in this way.
When ready to bake brush the hot
gem pans with butter and fill each
two thirds full. Bake thirty minutes
in hot oven. Do not add salt be-
cause that will tend to keep them
from rising. Tear the cakes apart
and they will be found light and an
For the first dish with eggs make
five slices of milk toast. One pint of
milk thickened with one and one half
tablespoonfuls of bread flour, and
cooked twenty minutes will make
good dip for the toast. Add one half
teaspoonful of salt and two level ia
blespoonfuls of butter cut in small
pieces just when done. Arrange the
toast on a platter. Beat five eggs
slightly, add one half teaspoonful of
salt, one eighth teaspoonful of pep
per and one half cup of milk. Heat
the omelet pan, put in two level ia
blespoonfuls of butter and when
melted turn in the mixture. Cook
until creamy and pour over the slices
of toast. Sprinkle with four table
spoonfuls of grated mild cheese. Set
in the oven long enough to melt the
cheese, and serve at once.
The omelet given is a change from
the foaming omelet and is preferred
by some tastes. Mix two and one
quarter level tablespoonful of -four
with three quarters of a teaspoonful
of salt; add gradually one cup of
milk Beat three eggs until thick
and lemon-colored and add to first
mixture. Heat the frying pan, and
put in two thirds of the butter; when
melted pour in the mixture. AS the
egg cooks slowly lift it up so that
the uncooked part may run under
meath; add the remainder of the but
ter as needed. The egg should cook
in a succession of flakes made by
picking it up with the fork. When
firm throughout put on the hotter
part of the range to brown. Roll up
and turn on to a hot platter.

The Bulletin Tells OF Operations at the

Operations at the Winnamuck are
gradually increasing, n force of about
thirty men being now employed in and
about the old mine. The main incline
having reached the 400 level n station
is being cut there, from which DRIFT
ing toward the ore chute win soon

for beginning development work at once
on the company's claims, and II con-
tract has been let for running n tun-

There is reason to anticipate that It's

obtained at the surface.
Matters are being shaped for greater
activity at the Old Jordan and Galcna,
and we understand Manager Holden
win next week increase shipments to
about 60 tons daily. The big mill will
no doubt start in on continuous run
and that means treatment of not less
than 100 tons every twenty-faur hours.
