Some Suggestions Which May Be of

 Some Suggestions Which May Be of
 Value.
 If you want to keep the cook n a good humor, or if you want to save your own temper if you are your own cook keep your knives sharpened. It will vex the temper of a saint to have to work about the kitchen with dull knife. You can soon learn to sharpen them yourself if you try. It is very little trouble and cheaper. A small, fine whetstone should be one of the coneomitants of every kitchen.
 If you are putting down your carpets Rfter spring house cleaning, in the dark rooms, where the sunlight never gets d fair chance. and when you are troubled with moths in the carpets, sprinkle to- bacco over the top of the paper, which, of course, you put next to the floor. It is said that this is an excellent pre- ventive of moths ;n the carpet. Of course, the darkest of corners should have the thickest sprinkle of the weed
 Remember this! In putting away woolen clothes and furs, that there are not enough moth balls made to kill moth eggs, unless you set fire to the whole lot. What you must be careful to know is that all the eggs are beaten out of the garments, then you can saie= ly put the things away with all the foul smelling chemicals you like, for the moths will not bother the chest or trunk If the moths are in the things when they arc put away, you can look 10 find them in lace work when you take them out in the fall.
 A lady who does most exquisite ezn- broidery work. says that when you buttonhole scallops in your embroid- cry, hold the concaye edges toward you Do not knot your thread, to trouble you and make your work look rough, but run two or three fine stitches as you start in.
 So simple thing as a potato is in suited by half the cooks in Christen- dom. When potatoes are to be boiled pure and simple, only vandal will peel them before cooking. Potatoes to boil should be of uniform, medium size, so that one will be all that one person wants to eat, and not more than a healthy appetite will demand Cutting them iniures the flavor for boiling They should be smooth and plump, and should be scrubbed with a clean sea- grass brush that is used for no other purpose. They should soak for half an hour in cold water before being put in boiling water, and should not cease a good steady boil in a covered vessel until they are ready to serve. Pour eff the water and set on the back part of the stove with the lid off to let them dry thoroughly before serving, and then you will have a nice mealy potato well worth the trouble you have taken. The same rules should be observed for balz- ing. The oven should be moderately hot, increasing to a good heat rapidly. When done, which you ascertain by testing with a fork, take in a napkin and break tue skin on one side, to let the steam escape, drop lump of butter in the break, if you like, and return to the open oven for moment or two, till ready to Brooklyn Eagle.

THE MAJORS BIG STORY.
Idea of His Wife Giving Him Fiv,
 Dollars Won Him Prize.


 There were five or six of them sitting about the stove in the drug store, and they had been telling some pretty tall stories. The druggist was q man of some humor and invention, and he con cocted mixture of great potency and fine flavor, composed of SD. frumenti, saccharum alba, cortex limonis, caro- phyllus, aromaticus and aqua pura q. s. This mixture he proposed to admin ister to whomsoever should tell the big gest story, and the party at once be- gan to stretch their inventive powers to the fullest extent A toilet soap drummer was appointed judge, and the prize mixture, steaming hot sat in an eight-ounce graduated measure upon the edge of the stove.
 The colonel told war story of the Munchausen variety, the squire related hunting adventure that evinced a de- citiei genius for eyadiHg the truth, and the postmaster made strong bid for the prize with snake story big enough to make the sea serpent jealous. The others followed in turn, and the last iiiu1s bhS tidJOAs SnbGlSd lllt coupe tion. The major had in his mind a re- markable narrative about dog that he owned that did some wonderful things, and he began his story in this way:
 Last Wednesday morning I got up little later than usual, and went down to breakfast. Most of you have seen that brown setter of mine-he's a good deal smarter than most men. We'll, that dog was in the dining-room when 1 went in. As I came in the door my wife, who was waiting for me, said:
 John, when I went in to wake you up this morning, found this fve-dollar bill on the floor. You must have dropped it from your pocket when you undressed last night Then she handed me the bill. Now, that dog of mine was"
 ssWait minute" said the toilet soap drummer, you needn't go any further with your story. The prize is yours. I'm a married man myself, and that lie you've just told is one that you'll never improve on. hereby render decision in your fayor.''
 As there were no single men in the crowd, not voice was raised in pro- test against the judges verdict.-De- troit Free Press.
