THE HOUSEHOLD.
FOODS THAT ARE MEDICINES-THE
HOUSEWIFE SHOULD HAVE A
KNOWLEDGE OF THEM-A NEW
RECIPE FOR ASPARAGUS - EAT
SALT WITH PINEAPPLES.

1t has often been said that if house
wives would make study of the me-
dicinal properties of the vegetables,
fruits, etc., which they serve, and act
upon the knowledge, that there would
be less need to summon the physician
so often
Those inclined to or suffering from
rheumatic troubles should use celery,
pieplant, all tart fruits, especially lem
ons and sour oranges.
One troubled with nervous disorders
will be greatly benefited by using on
ions, turnips and celery. Onions are
said to be almost the best nervine
known. Nothing will SO quickly re-
lieve nervous prostration and tone up
worn-out system.
For kidney troubles use grapes, spin
ach and common dandelion, making
tea of the roots of the two latter, and
taking tablespoonful doses several
times day, when the plants are not
procurable for a relish. Buttermilk as
a beverage is also beneficial. For dis
orders of the liver use tomatoes, on
ions, lemons and salt.
Insomnia is often cured by the use of
either lettuce or onions. Use all kinds
of fresh, ripe fruits to purify the blood
and tone up the system. Blackberries
and raspberries are tonics.
Cranberries are used externally as
we'll as internally for erysipelas, and
figs-a most valuable remedy for those
suffering with cancer-are used in the
same way.
Garlic, olives, onions, peanuts, and
tomatoes promote digestion. The
beaten yolk of an egg, with milk
enough added to make it palatable, will
be beneficial in cases of jaundce. Take
morning and might. Also the beaten
yolk with sugar is good to clear and
strengthen the voice. and the beaten
white with lemon juice and sugar will
relieve hoarseness.
Elderberries are said to be a. specific
for dropsy. Spinach and onions will
relieve those suffering with gravel.
Carrots are good for asthmatic trou-
bles. Turnips, onions, and salt for
scurvy. Those who are troubled with
diabetes should use foods devoid of
sugar and starch. Peanuts are espec-
tally recommended for corpulent dia-
betes.
A chapter might be written on lem
ons, the free use of which often saves
a good big doctors bill. They are
sovereign remedy for cold, if taken in
time. When a severe cold is felt COM
ing on the patient should take hot
lemonade made by squeezing and cut
ting onel lemon into half pint of boil
ing water Add very little sugar, to
make it palatable, drink, and go to bed,
covering up warmly to induce a gentle
perspiration. For feverish thirst in
sickness, biliousness, rheumatism, liv-
er troubles, ETC., they are most invalu-
able.

The Gifted Authoress Tells How

BE Avoided.
The world is full of unemployed,
yet it is full of homes where help is

Volumes could be written of good

words only to offer to the mistress

She might better be a horse tied in her

She has a social side to her nature
just as you have, and while you should
request decency and regularity in

in your employ.
Do not expect your domestic to keep
we'll and cheerful if you give her a

much to do with the servant trouble.

dy the short rainy day skirt is pre-
ferable to the heavy, trailing one now
used for street wear
One should never take off winter
flannels until the last. of May. Should
the weather change or grow colder
warmer underclothing should always
be resumed.
Should one become drenched while
out for the day stop in the first res
taurant for a cup of hot coffee; then
hurry home as quickly as possible and
put the feet for 20 minutes in hot
mustard water. Care of the feet in
this way is important. because i'm
mersing the feet in water draws the
blood from the head, opens the pores,
causes the Precipitation to flow, starts
a good circulation and 50 prevents
congestion. In this way many colds
and fevers are thrown off. After
bathing the feet the body should be
rubbed with alcohol Never go out
for three hours after using the hot
foot bath. Always wear stout shoes,
those with fiat, thick soles being the
best; soles, in fact. about one-half
inch thick are the proper thing for
wet weather. For rainy day wear the
soles should be faced with rubber
soles, which can be put on any shoes
and are less trying to the feet than
ordinary rubbers, the tendency Of
which is to draw the skin.

Truly great is the man who can be-
come famous without making any of
the noise himself
The above, which is from one of
the witty magazine writer's of the
day. expresses SO OPPORTUNITY the atti-
tude of the half-educated whist player
that we were impelled to borrow it, as
well as some of Mr.. Gregory's thoughts
that seemed to fit our subject. He COM
mences his essay with, Full as small
dntellects are of queer kinks, unex-
planned turnings and groundless likes
and dislikes, the bland contentment
that buoys up the incompetent is the
most difficult of all vagaries to account
for" Rarely do we play game of
whist without examples of this exas-
perating weakness appearing on the
surface of these shadows that common
place people SO naively call their
minds" What one would expect is ex-
treme modesty in the half-educated or
wholly ignorant whist player, and self
appreciation higher up in the scale,
where it might reasonably dwell. Ex-
perience, however, teaches that exactly
the opposite is the case among those
who have achieved success. For in
stance, an effort was made in certain
whist club recently to induce more
Harmonious atmosphere by dividing the
so-called experts of the club so as to
apportion each to poorer or less skill
full player as partner. Each week
change was to be made, so that the
novices should have an equal chance
to play with each of the stronger and
more experienced men, it being under
stood that the weaker vessels were to
receive advice and encouragement from
their self-sacrifcing partners, and that
in consequence the general tone of the
club would be improved, the sacrifice
appreciated, and the new members adj
yanced. 1t did not succeed bit. The
disputes were frequent, blatant ignor-
ance assertiye and complacent medi-
ocrity indignant Of correction. Happy
accidents of life have been the occasion
of our meeting from time to time dur
ing the past three years some of the
greatest lights in the whist world. Not
only have they been as a rule most I'M
assuming, but in the majority of cases
positively self-depreciatory doubling
of themselves and their talents, con-
Etantly aiming at a higher development
of their play or a higher development
of their powers, never contented with
what they have achieved, beyond the
idea that it is another step towards
their goal Knowing this, it is shock
to meet the mediocre player who with
infinite sang froid will blandly inform
you that he plays the game; never
looked in a whist book in his life; all
a man wants is sand as he expresses
-. 'aAd common sense; he never would
Nhampered by rules; sort of way he
has; knows where the cards are, of
course; he never makes mistakes, and
it's all luck when he is beaten" Never
a doubt as to his astuteness-therein
lies the strength of the feeble minded.

dence they can never see but one side
of the subject, so are always con-
WINGED that they are right, and from
