Muffins.?A pint of sour milk, two i
eggs, a lump of butter half as large as an !
egg, a small teaspoon of soda ; bake in
gem pans in a hot oven fifteen minutes. !
Liquid or Soft Sauce.?One cup and
a half of sugar, one-half a cup of butter,
and yolk of one egg beaten together ;
add the well beaten white of the egg
with a teaspoonful of boiling water.
Baked Custard.?Pour a quart of hot
milk over five well-beaten eggs. Add a
teaspoonful of butter. Season with
vanilla, rose water, or nutmeg, and
sweeten to taste. Bake in cups or pudding
dish.
Fried Tomatoes.?Take cold stewed
tomatoes well seasoned, add to them
the soil is fall of water ? The roots of
plants will go down into stagnant water;
the elements of plant food are not all on
the surface; many of them have been
washed down by the rains; some of them
are found in the decomposing rocks
themselves. Take away the water and
r the roote will find them. Drainage
lengthens the seasons. In our climate
this is an important point to be gained.
If by drainage one or two weeks
? could be gained it would be
quite* a relief in our backward
springs, when there is so much to
be done in a short space of time. Drainage
increases the effect of the application
of manure. The soil being dryer is more
easily worked fine. The manure is also
more evenly distributed. The water also
passing through the soil carries fertilizing
matter down to the roots of the
plants. Where there is stagnant water
manure must decompose slowly, if at all;
but let the water pass off, the air is admitted,
and decomposition takes place.

H?w L?nf Butter will Remain Sweet.
A series of observations were reoently
made in the milk-testing establishment
of the municipality of Thun, with a view
of determining the time during which
butter could be kept fresh under varying
conditions. The following are certain
results obtained, and seem to be !
worthy of consideration by housekeep- j
era as well as dairymen : When kept in !
a warm living-room, at a constant tern-1
perature of fifty-nine degrees Fahr., the j
butter became rancid after one day's ex ;
posure; and in a well ventilated dairy j
at a temperature of fifty-three degrees i
Fahr., after four days. In this latter
apartment, the temperature remaining I
at fifty-three degrees Fahr., but the butter
being surrounded with water, the j
change did not occur till a lafse of thir- i
teen days, which was increased to fifteen
when the butter was submerged in the 1
cold water. These tests were made with ;
pure fresh batter, but when the sample
was pressed and slightly salted, it was :
found that in the well ventilated dairy, |
with temperature at fifty-three degrees '
Jbahr., it remained sweet ior twenty-nine i
days.

Unfounded Suspicion Punished.
A lady in Marquette, Mich., suspected
that her husband was in the habit of
kissing Katy, the cook, and resolved to
detect him in the act. After watching
for days she heard him oome in one
evening and quietly pass into the kitchen.
Now, Katy was out that evening, j
and the kitchen was dark. Burning :
with jealousy, the wife took some
matches in her hand and hastily placed i
her shawl over her head, as Katy some-1
times did, entered the kitchen by the I <
back door, and was almost immediately j i
seized and embraced in the most ardent j i
manner. With her heart almost bursting ;
with rage and jealousy the injured wife i
prepared to administer a terrible rebuke 11
to her faithless spouse. Tearing her- > j
self from his embrace, she struck a j
match and stood face to face with?the , i
hired man. Her husband says that his 1
wife has never treated him so well since i
the first month they were married as she 1
has for the past few days. j 1
sufficient rolled cracker to enable you to
form into cakes, fry in butter to a light
brown. Fresh tomatoes sliced and
rolled in tine cracker crumbs (first salting
them) and fried in the same maimer
are very nice.
Hominy Fritters.?Two full teacups
of cold boiled hominy, add to it one
scant teacup of sweet milk and a little
salt, stir till smooth, then add four tablespoonfuls
of flour and one egg, beat the
yolk and white separately, adding the
white last. Have ready a pan with hot
butter and lard (half of each), drop the
batter in by spoonfuls and fry a light
brown.
Pumpkin Pudding.?Pare the pumpkin
and put it down to stew, strain it
through a collander; two pounds of
pumpkin to one pound of butter, one
pound of sugar, and eight eggs ; beat to
a froth ; half wine ; lass of rose water,
one teaspoonful of mace, cinnamon, and
nutmeg all together.
Milk Toast.?One quart milk ; when
it comes to a boil thicken with one
tablespoonful corn starch; add salt.
Toast the bread a light brown ; butter
each slice, and put layers of toast in a
covered dish, and pour on the thickened
milk ; then more toast and milk, and so
on till the dish is full; cover and let
stand five minutes, and serve.
To Cook Sweetbreads?Plain.?For
every mode of dressing they should be
prepared by half boiling and then puttin
j them into cold water. This makes
them whiter and thicker and firmer.
Dip them in egg and then into bread
crumbs ; pepper and salt, and fry in
lard; serve with peas or tomatoes.
Another way is, after they are parboiled
and cold, to lard them with fat
pork; put them into a stewpan, with
some good veal gravy and juice of a
.small lemon; stew them till quite
tender, and just before serving thicken
with flour and butter ; serve with the
gravy ; garnish with sliced lemon.
White Mountain Cake.?Five eggs,
beat whites separately, three cups of
* granulated sugar, one cup butter, one
cup sweet milk, three cups flour, one-half
teaspoonful of soda, two teaspoonfuls
cream tartar, a pinch of salt. Beat the
butter, sugar and yolks of the eggs to a
cream; mix the soda in the milk, and
cream tartar in the flour, add the whites
of the eggs just before the flour. Bake
in jelly cake tins, browning lightly.
Take the white of one egg, a little sugar
and water, beat together and with a
knife spread over the top of each cake ;
grate one cocoanut and mix it with
sugar, sprinkle it over the cakes, and
pile them one on top of the other,
finishing the top in the same way. This
is delicious with ice-cream.

Daring the discussion on the Centennial Appropriation
bill, Mr. Edmunds (Itep.), of Verinout,
eaid ho believed that Congress had the
right to appropriate money for the Centennial

' would not be sufficient to make the exhibition
successful, and Congress would be called upon
for another million and a half, or possibly two
or three millions. ITo gave notice that he
would offer an amendment requiring the Centeunial
commissionei s and board of finance to
file with the secretary of the treafury the
acceptance of the provisions of the bill before
receiving the money.
Mr. McCreerv (Dem.), of Kentucky, offered
the following as a substitute for the bill : That
it be recommended to the people of the United
States to assemble on the fourth day of July
next, in such numbers and manner as may be
convenient, in their respective oitiee, towns, and
villages, neighborhoods, or wherever they ma
be, publicly jo testify their joy at the one hundredth
return of that auspicious day, by suitable
eulogies, orations, and discourses, or by
public prayers and such religious exercises and
ceremonies as may be appropriate to the
occasion and sanctioned by their own conscience.
Mr. Edmunds' amendment was rejected by a
rising vote, 12 to 31. Mr. McCreery's substitute
was rejected, 12 to 45.
Mr. Edmunds moved to strike out the preamble.

A Mistake All Around.
A farmer living near Was ington, N.
J., was awakened early one morning by
the noise of some one entering his
house. Spring from his bed he sallied
out to meet the intruder, and as he en-1
tered the kitchen he saw the form of a
man standing in the room. Determined j
to defend his property at all hazards, he
called to his hired man, who slept in an j
adjoining room, and seizing a chair ;
aimed a deadly blew at the burglar's !
head. The darkness interfered with his '
aim, and the chair struck the upper part:
of a door, and splintering to pieces, fell '
at his feet. Before he could recover j
himself, the hired man made his ap-!
pearance, and mistaking his employer j
for the burglar?who had suddenly dis- i
appeared?struck him with another chair
and knocked him down. Lights were
soon produced and the whole family
aroused, when it was discovered that the |
supposed burglar was an employee on ,
the same farm, who had been out on a
"sparking" expedition, and had en-1
deavored to gain access to his room with- i
out awaking the family. His employer
informed him, as he caressed the bruise
on his body, that hereafter he should {
take n nightkey or keep better hours. .

| Astonishing: Feats of Chinese Acrobats, j
The Chinese tumblers lately introdaced
into the Chinese academy of
music in San Francisco, a local journal
says, are indeed marvels in the line. A
| number of athletic Mongolians appear,
! stripped to the waist, and begin a sort
! of combination on the stage. At first
' the fighting appears to bo promiscuous,
j but six or eight finally ally themselves
against one man, and try to overcome
I him by springing against him and strikj
ing him full in the breast with the soles
i of their feet. He nr eets this curious
; mode of attack by standing like a statue,
while the others fall heavily to the floor.
A number of tables are next brought out
; and piled one above the other, until a
i height of about twenty feet is attained.
A performer, whose weight is no less
than one hundred and fifty pounds,
: mounts them, and, springing in the air
I toward the floor and the stage, strikes
1 both feet with heavy thud upon the bare
breast of a man standing abioat ten feet
from the foot of the tables, throwing
j him violently to the floor. How a man
' can sustain such a blow is a mystery.
I Again the agile acrobat ascends to the
| top table, and, springing upward, turns
j a somersault, while all the tables except
I the lower table are suddenly taken away.
I Upon the only table'left he falls with a
force apparently great enough to break
! every bone in his body; but he leaps up
again immediately and turns back handsprings
across the stage. Again he
climbs to the top of the tower of tables,
while a second lies down upon a table a
few feet from the base of the tower.
Turning a somersault in mid-air, he falls
upon the other body, the two breast to
breast, and bounds oft again with a second
somersault. Other acrobats climb
to various altitudes, and fell upon the
stage, alighting square upon their backs
with a force that is astonishing. The
feats %re all executed by men in a seminude
condition, so that there is no
chanoe for padding their clothes. The
manager informed the reporter that the
tumblers were well trained from childhood,
and became habituated to the
terrible concussions only by years of
practice. He added that many were
killed in training, or maimed for life.
Beans iu a Barrel.
i
The Lowell (Mass.) Courier says:
I One day a party in a wholesale country
produce Biurn 1U ima UltJ pi upvsocu a
guessing match in regard to the number
of pea-beans in a barrel of that vegetable.
There were several grocers in the
store and their estimates varied from
40,000 to '4,000,000, all giving wild
guesses. It was ascertained that there
are about 566,000 pea-beans in a full
barrel; this result being obtained by
counting the number of beans in a pound
weight, and multiplying that by the
number of pounds in a barrel. This of
course would give only an approximate
number, as the figures for each pound
will very probably vary slightly, and the
stated number of pounds in a barrel may
also vary. A gentleman of an advanced
mathematical education who happened
in the store was asked to guess the number
of beans. He reached a result by
measuring one bean, and then figuring
how many of the beans could be put in
| tne barrel. He placed the number in
| the barrel at 2,000 less than the result
j obtained by the easier method of calcui
lation, and his figures may be even
| correct than those by the loose method.
Facts are Stubborn Things.
Thousands of human beings are yearly borne
j on the swift current of disease, down to the
grave, just because they do not possess a sufficient
knowledge of themselves. A man meets

; The reply frequeatly is : 44 Oh, I am well, with
I th eexception of a cold." Most persons lightly
I regard a cold. Header, do you know that a

is re&llv a mild form of catarrh, and if not arrested*
in its coarse will become chronic.
Catarrh is ono of the most disagreeable, offensive
affections in the c&talogne of diseases,
i The passage to the nose is obstructed, the
I sense of smell is impaired, and there is a <JiBj
agreeable sensation of pressure in the head.
! In the more advanced stages, there is a discharge
having an offensive odor. If the disI
ease be allowed to continue in its course,
i thick, hard incrustations will form in the head,
I the bones of which sometimes become softj

1 will cure the worst forms of catarrh; in fact, it
is the only sure and safe remedy which has
yet been offered to the public. Many harsh,
irritating preparations may, for a time, relieve
the urgency of the symptoms, but they do not

sixth inst.? Com.
CONSUMPTIVE.**, TAKE NOTICE.
Every moment of delay makes your case more bops ,
less, and mnch depends on the jndlclons choice of
remedy. The amount of testimony In favor of Dr. j
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, as a cure for Consumption,
far exceeds all that can be brought to support the pre- j
tensions of any other medicine. See Dr. Schenck's
Almanac, containing the certificates of many persons of
the highest respectability, who hare been restored to ;
health, after being pronounced incurable by physicians j
of acknowledged ability, Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup |
alone has cured many, as these evidences will show; bu
the cure is often promoted by the employment of two
other remedies which Dr. Schenck provides for the purpose.
These additional remedies are Schenck's Sea !
Weed Tonic and Mandrake Pills. By the timely use of j
these medicines, according to directions, Dr. Schenck !
certifies that most any case of Consumption may be 1
cured.
Dr. Schenck is professionally at his principal office 1
Corner Sixth and Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every ,
Monday, whan all letters for advioe most be addressed |

write something pretty for her ; with
which request he complied in the following

To sell the New Patent Improved EYE CUPS.
Guaranteed to be the beet paying hueinees offered to
Agente by any Hottee. and
pleasant employing.
The valae of the celebrated new Patent Improved
Eye Cujs for the restoration of sight breaks out and
biases In the evidences of over 6,000 genoin? testimonials
of cares, and recommeuded by more than
1,000 ?f our best physicians In their practice.
The Patent Eye Cups are a scientific and physiological
discovery, and as Alex. R. Wteth, M. D.,
; nd Wh. Beat let, M. D., write, they are certainly
the greatest invention of the age.
Read the following certificates:
Fxbousom Station, Logan Co., Ky.,)
June 6th, 1873. /
Db. J. Ball A Co., Oculists:
Gentlemen?Your Patent Eye Cups are, in my
Judgment, the most splendid triumph which optical
science has ever achieved, but, like all great and
important truths, in this or in any other branch of
science and philosophy, have much to oontend with
from the ignorance and prejudice of a too skeptical
public; but truth is mighty, and it will prevail, and
li is only a question of time as regards their general
acceptance and indorsement by alL I hare in my
hands certificates of persons testifying in unequivocal
terms to their merits. The most prominent
physicians of my county recommend your Eye
Cups. I am, respectfully, J. A. L. B0YER.
William Beatley, M. D., Salvias, Ky., writes:
" Thanks to you for the greatest of all inventions.
My sight is fully restored by the use of your Patent
Eye Cups, after being almost entirely blind for
twenty-six years."
Alex, R. Wteth, M. D., Atchison. Pa., writes:
"After total blindness of my .eft eye for four years,
by paralysis to the optic nerve, to my utter astonishment
your Patent Eye Cups restored my eyesight
permanently In three minuter."
Rev. 8. B, Faleinsbcbo, Minister of M. K.
Church, writes; " Your Patent Eye Cups have restored
my sight, for which I am moat thankful to
the Father of Mercies. By your advertisement I
I uvit a glance that yoarinraiuaoier,yey*i|
formed their work perfectly in accordance with
physiological law; that they literally fed the eye*
that were starving for nutrition. May Ood greatly
bless yon, and may your name be enshrined in the
affectionate memories of multiplied thousands as
one of the benefactors of your kind."
Horace B. Dubant, M. D., says: 441 sold, and
effected future sales liberally. The Patent Eye
Cups, they will make nwpey, and make it fast, too;
no small, catch-penny affair, but a superb, number
one, tip-top business, promises, as far as I can see,
to be life-long."
Mayor E. C. Ellis wrote us, November 16th,
1869: 441 have tested the Patent Ivory Eye Cups,
and I am satisfied they are good. I am pleased
with them. They are certainly the greatest larentlon
of the age."
Hon. Horace Greeley, late editor of the New
York Tribune, wrote: 44 Da. J. Ball, of our dty,
is a couscleutious and responsible man, who is Incapable
of intentional deception or imposition."
Prof. W. Merrick writes: 44 Truly, I am grateful
to your noble inventicn. My eight is restored
by your Patent Eye Cnpe. May Heaven bless and
preserve yon. I have been using ?i>ectacles twenty
years. I am seventy-one years old. I do all my
writing without glaaaes, and I bless the inventor of
' the Patent Eye Cups every time I take up my old
^teel pen."
asolph Bioujcbxbo, M. D., physician to Emperor
Nnpcfccr, wrote, after having his sight restored by
our Patent Eye Cape: "With gratitude to God,
and thankfulness to the inventors, Da. J. Ball k
Co., I hereby recommend the trial of the Eye Cups
(in fall faith) to all and every one that has any impaired
eyesight, believing as I do, that since the experiment
with this wonderful discovery has proved
successful on me, at my advanced period of life?
ninety years of age?I believe tbey will restore the
vision to any individual if they are properly
applied. ADOLPH BIOBNBEKG. M. D."
