Too Much Furniture.

"Haye nothing in your house that
you do not know to be useful and be-
lieve to be beautiful" is one of the
sane preceptg of William Morris.
Have you applied it to your own
house? If not, begin with the parlor
or sitting room and carefully consider
each article. How few things there
are really useful. We need enough
comfortable chairs, and each one
should be a thing of beauty-not nee
essarily expensive, but we'll made, of
good proportion and with no sham
carving. Each should be a self-res-
pecting object, proud to show itself,
not the beribboned, betidied, non
descript article which sometimes
takes it's place. With tides out of
fashion, styles in chairs are improving.
Many a room suffers from a super
abundance of tables which invite all
sorts of ornamental nothings to come
and repose upon their tops. Indeed,
it often requires skillful navigation to
sail about this archipelago of furniture
in such manner as to avoid catastro
phe. Are these tables useful or beauti-
full?
What have you on the mantel piece?
Are the things there from choice or
habit? 1t is better to have nothing,
than nothing beautiful House
keeping.

SOUPS.

Corn Soup.-One can of corn or
three ears of fresh corn, one quart of
milk, butter the size of a walnut, one
tablespoonful of -four and salt. Put
the milk on the stove; when boiling
hot add the corn, letting it just heat
(nou cook in the milk. Remove from
the fire and rub through a colander
and then through a sieve. Return it
to the fire, and when boiling hot add
the butter, flour and salt rubbed
smoothly together and moistened with
a little milk. Stir constantly until
slightly thickened. Serve with oyster
crackers. Sufficient for six if small
helpings are given.
When fresh corn is used, CRATE from
the cob, then put it, cobs and all, into
the milk and cook for about ten min
utes; the canned corn is already cooked
Remove the cobs and then proceed as
directed above. In making the soup
from canned corn, it pays to buy
good brand, as what remains after
passing through the colander and
sieve is perfectly good, and can be
used either as a vegetable, scalloped,
or in corn oysters. One half of the
can would probably be sufficient for
this soup, but as there is no waste in
what is left over, use the whole as it
makes a richer soup. Be very careful
not to cook the corn more thandirect-
ed for SO doing will destroy the flavor
of the soup, which is delicious. Serve
with oyster crackers.
Potato Soup.-Wash and pare three
potatoes and soak them in cold water
one-half hour, cook in boiling sailed
water until soft, drain and mash them;
cook in double boiler one teaspoon
full of chopped onion and one stalk of
celery with three cupfuls of milk, add
this to the potatoes, season with one
half teaspoonful of salt and a speck
Of cayenne pepper and one half tea
spoonful of celery salt; rub through a
strainer and put on to boil again; melt
one half tablespoonful of butter in a
saucepan, add one spoonful of -four,
mix we'll and stir into the boiling
again and serve very hot. In prepar-
ing any soup in which milk is used,
sweet skinned milk answers every
purpose.
Pea Soup.-One pint split peas,
| three quarts cold water, one-fourth
pound salt pork, two teaspoonfuls salt
one saltspoon pepper, one teaspoon
full celery seed. Soak the peas over
night in cold water. In the morning
| put them over the fire and boil six
hours. Strain through colander and
if not perfectly smooth, return to the
! fire and add thickening of one tea
spoonful of flour and one of butter
stirred together. Serve with bread
dice, Drowned in the oven and one
/ sliced lemon, which are added to the
! soup in the tureen.
Tomato Soup.-One quart of soup
stock, one quart of tomato, one tea
! spoonful each of sugar and salt, one
tablespoonful of pepper. Stew the to-
mato until soft enough to rub through
a sieve. Add sugar, salt, pepper and
boiling hot stock; thicken with one
tablespoonful of melted butter, stirred
! gradually into the soup. Strain again
and serve very hot with croutons or
