WINGED him that Dublin, advanced as

For the next two years he concen-
trated himself on the Dublin editors,
whom he bombarded with stories and
poems. and on whose foolishness he
grew fat for he got from them q min

score mountain boys in the little
school house during the greater part
OF each day. working in the fields the

his kith and kin and all the old neigh

through his books. But when he comes
to America every winter, he meets,

young men who, still addressing him
as "Masther," learned their reading
and writing and figuring and bad
spelling under his tuition. Like the
ghosts Of ill-deeds. the scholars whom

Uses for Vinegar.

Perhaps young housewives have found
trouble in making faky pie crust. Add
one-half teaspoonful of vinegar to the
cold water used to mix the dough.
A teaspoonful of vinegar added to the
water in which beef is either boiled or
roasted means more tender meat.
A little vinegar boiled on the stove at
the same time that cabbage is cooked
takes away much of the evidence of that
vegetables presence.
Last, but not least, add teaspoonful
to the water when cooking string beans.
They become tender much more quickly
and the vinegar does not spoil their fla.

A simple and efiicacious way of clean
ing silver is to make a solution Of bak-
ing soda and salt, allowing teaspoonful
of each to quart of water. Put this
solution in an aluminium pan or kettle
and when it boils drop the silver in for
an instant. Have another pan of hot
water handy for rinsing purposes. On
taking the silver from the soda mixture
drop it in the rinsing water, remove,
and wipe dry. No further polishing will
be necessary, and all tarnish and stains
will have disappeared.
