a Few Useful Hints.

The scales OF fish can be easily re-
moved II vinegar is poured over them.
The acid Of the vinegar loosens their
hold and makes them yield readily to
the knife. Lemon juice added to rice
when boiling will keep the grains from
falling apart and from running together
In compact mass. A hot, steamy
kitchen makes it difficult to beat the
whites of eggs to a creamy froth. If
they refuse to respond readily to the
beating, open window and do the work
there where currents of cool air can
pass over them.

Home of the Eel

From the Baltimore Sun: There are
eels that are the most palatable Of all
fish that swim, and eels that are not
fit to be eaten. The habitat Of the eel
makes the fish delicious or repulsive.
Where it lives affects it more than its
habitat does any other fish. The cells
that are bred and lie in the mill ponds,
or on the muddy bottoms, of fresh
water streams, or in "mudguts," are
to be regarded as so much carrion,
and are fit only for crab bait. It's the
same way, though not to such great
extent, with catfish, and even the shad,
the prince of table fishes, is unfit to
be eaten when taken in the muddy
waters and ooze of the up-streams
Eels that are caught in clear salt
