Rice Custard.? Boil the rice slowly,
without stirring much, until it is tender;
turn it into a mold to cool; make a boiled
custard thiD, and sweet, and pour
over the rice before it is served.
Molasses Candy.?One piut white
coffee sugar, one pint molasses, one
tablespoouful of vinegar, one tablespoonful
of butter; cook slowly a long
time, until it " strings" from the spoon
when dipped up; pour upon a greased
tin pan; then pull it till it becomes
white.
Drawn Butter.?Take one pint of
swoet rrilk, a p;ece of butter the size of
au egg, two ir three tablespoonfuls of
Hour or corn starch; rub the butter and
Hour together; when the milk is boiling,
stir in the butter and flour; have ready
two hard-boiled eggs; take off the shells
and chop or slice them; stir them in as
you take the butter from the fire; pepper
and salt to taste; send to table im
mediately.
Icing for Cake.?Icing can be made
very easily by merely mixing the white
of eggs with sugar, and adding to each
egg one teaspoon ful of ice-cold water.
This takes more sugar than when the
egg is beaten to a froth, but it will keep
soft for some days. To make the icing
very thick, it must be put on in two or
three layers, as otherwise it will be thick
on the edges of the loaf and thin on the
top. It will not pile up like old fashioned
icing.
Neudle Pudding.?Three eggs, beat
light; add a little salt and flour to make
a paste that will roll; roll the paste an
eighth of an inch thick; fold the paste
shred fine; boil in clear water, with a
little salt; put them in the water while it
is boiliDg, and do not allow them to
6tick together, or uncover the pot for
ten minutes ; take them out and drain
well; bake them one hour; beat two eggs
light; mix them in a quart of milk, and
stir in the neudles; add salt, sugar, and
# spices to taste, and bake as custard.
Salt Fish.?To be used to advantage
salt fish inu6t be soaked the afternoon
previous to using, the water changed
before bedtime, and again early in the
J ? morning. Once more change the water
after breakfast, put it on the back of the
range or stove and never allow it to boil,
scarcely simmer until you find it soft
enough to pick apart very fine with a
fork. It must not be chopped but carefully
picked; it takes more time but is
the only right way. For codfish cakes
have the potatoes nicely mashed with
milk and a little butter, proportion of
one cup of fish to three of potatoes, a
little pepper, red or black. Dip in egg
or not, as you prefer, before frying
brown. To be made in cakes not too
thick.
American Farmers' Club.
Informal questions presented %? a
late meeting and the answers to them:
Is ohicoory a profitable field crop ?
Yes, the roots, dried and afterwards
ground, con be sold at good prioes to
mix with coffee. Horses are very fond
of the tops, and the trimmings can be
fed in winter in plaoe of grain?about
one peck per day to each horse. It will
keep them fat, and is a sure cure for, as
well as preventive of, worms and bote.
The seed can be obtained at any seed
store. Sow the same as carrots. Sandy
or loose soil is preferable. Farmers
would do well to try it first on a small
scale.
Can bees be protected from moth ?
Construct the hives so as to furnish
no hiding plaoe for the moths, and keep
the stocks strong. Even with these
precautions there is liable to be some
ldte.
What is the best fertilizer for corn ?
^According to Professor Caldwell's experiments
barnyard manure yields the
most corn; plaster and potash salts the
next best results; guano no marked difference
with soil unfertilized, and fish
scraps but a meager production.
Which is most successfully transplanted,
the maple or the elm ?
The Hist mentioned is most likely to
live, but with care either will thrive. In
transplanting bo sure and obtain saplings
having a mass of fine fibrous roots;
when ready to plant dip these roots in
mud about as thick as cream, and then
plant with each root lying in its natural
position wifh fine earth packed closely
about each. After planting, mulch the
trees thoroughly.
Early Rising.
A young farmer found he was getting
reduced in circumstances. He went to
a friend to ask his advice. This friend,
with a grave face, said: "I know of a
oharm that will cure that; take this cup,
and drink from it every morning of the
water you must get at such a spring.
But remember, you must draw it yourself
at five o'clock, or the charm will be
broken." The next morning the farmer
walked across his fields?for the spring
was at the further end of his estate?find
spying a neighbor's cows, which had
broken through the fence and were
feeding on his pasture, he turned them
out and mended the fence. The laborers
were not yet at work. Wh n they came
loitering along, after their j roper time,
they were startled at seeing their master
so early. "O.h," said he, " I see how
. it is; it comes of my not getting up in
time." This early rising soon became a
pleasant habit; his walk and cup of water
gave him an appetite for breakfast;
and the people were, like him, early at
work. He soon acknowledged that the
advice of his friend was as good as it
was simple.
Pigmies of the Past,
An ancient graveyard of vast propor
tions has been found in Coffee county,
Teun. It is similar to those found in
White county and other places in middle
Tennessee, but is vastly more extensive,
and shows that the race of pigmies
who once inhabited this country were
very numerous. The same peculiarities
of oosition observed in the White conn
ty graves are found in these. The
writer of the letter says : Some considerable
excitement and curiosity took
place a few days since near Hillsboro,
Coffee county, on James Brown's farm.
A man was plowing in a field which has
been cultivated many years and plowed
up a man'8 skull and other bones. After
making further examination they found
that there was about six acres in the
graveyard. They were buried in a sitting
or standing position. The bones
show that they were a dwaif tribe of
people about three feet high. It is estimated
that there were about 75,000 to
100,000 buried thero. This shows that
this country was inhabited hundreds of
years ago.
Didn't Want his Visits.?"Jennie,"
said Mrs. Whifet, comiDg into her
daughter's room with a card in her hand
the other evening, " that Smith man
has called agaiu. Now, I don't want you
to encourage his visits. Your pa says
he is only a bank clerk on $1,200, and
he is liable to embezzle any day and we
will get mixed up in some horrid scandal.
So Jennie went down and did
the "coolpolite" to Mr. Smith.

the secretary of the treasury to redeem
ali outstanding legal tenders by Jan. 1, 1879Mr.

I Young Meu from the Country.
We have noticed in the metropolitan
journals, says the Pittsburgh Leader, a
: disposition to discourage young men in
i the country from leaving their farm
\ homes and coming to cities to seek their
> fortunes. Evidently the editors of the
) great dailies forget that they were once
, young men, devising all sorts of plans
by which to evade work. There is no
. chance for young men in the country to
. get before the public. They are kept
down by disagreeable duties. Let them
come into the city and see life. Let
them stand on the curbstone at the corners
all summer till they grow corns on
the solos of their feet. After the young
man gets tired of standing on his corns,
and gets sent out of the free lunch establishment
a few times on his ear, he can
k steal an overcoat. There is always a
I chance for a young man to steal an over
coat. Overcoats are among the wisest
provisions for young men who stand
[ around all summer. They must have
been originally designed for them, and
> ifr is certain that they get their share of
1 them. Let the young man in the ooun|
try come into the city and see life.
Stocking Cards.
Experienced gamblers can stock a pack
i of cards for almost all games, which
makes it very hazardous for novices,
whose money is at stake, to play with
; them. A noted professional gambler
having made a large fortune at the game
i of vingt-et-un (twenty-one), was finally
detected in his mode of stocking a pack
1 and robbing hi$ victims, which was done
in the following manner : There being
fifty-two cards in a full deck, consei
quently there are thirteen of each suit,
which, when arranged by certain words,
' forms a stock that cannot be disarranged
- by cutting the cards a hundred times.
It is done by the following key : Eight
i kings, three tens, to save nine fair ladies
J for one sick knave. After the cards
| have been cut (not shuffled) as many
times as is desirable, see the bottom
card and take that for the starting point,
' then the whole pack cau be called off
1 from the top without making a single
| mistake. The trick above exposed is
bd5rond ordinary comprehension, and
well calculated to lure young men to
certain ruin.

Bleeding from Lungs, Catarrh, Bronchitis,
Consumption. A Wonderful
Cure.
Rochester, N. Y., Jan. 13th, 1874.
' It. V. Pierce, M. D., N. Y.:
Dear Sir?I had buffered from catarrh ia an
I aggravated foim for about twelve years and
for several years from bronchial trouble. Tried
many doctors and things with no lasting bene'
fit. In May, '72, becoming nearly worn out
with excessive editorial labors on a paper in
' New York city, I was attacked with bronchitis
' in a severe form, suffering almost a total loss
of voico. I returned home here, but had been
home only two weeks when 1 was completely
proetrated with hemorrhage from the lungs,
having four severe bleeding spells within two
weeks, and first three inside of nine days. In
the September following I improved sufficiently
to be able to be about, though in a very feeble
state. My bronchial trouble remained and the
ca'arrh was tenfold worse than before. Eveiy
effort for relief seemed fruitless. I seemed to
be losing ground daily. I continued in this
feeble state, raising blood almost daily until
about tho first of March, '73. when I became
so bad as to be entirely confined to the house
A friend suggested your remedies. But I was
extremely skeptical'that they would do me
good, as I had lost all heart in remedies, and
beguu to look upon medicines and doctors
with disgust. However, I obtained one of
your circulars, and read it carefol.y, from
which I came to the conelusion that you understood
your business at least. I finally obtained
a quantity of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.

according to directions. To my surprise I
soon began to imprdve. Tho Diecovery >nd
Pellets, in a short time, brought out a severe
eruption, which continued for several weeks.
I felt much better, my appetite improved, and
I gained in strength and fiesh. In three
mouths every vestige of the catarrh was gone,
tho broi chitis had nearly disappeared, had do
cough whatever, and I had entirely ceased to
raise blood : and contrary to the expectation
of some of my friends, the cure has remained
psrmauent. I have had no more hemorrhage
from the lunge, and am entirely free from
catarrh, from whirh I had suffered so mnch

; Dr. HC'HBNUK'S STANDARD REMEDIES
1 The standard remedies for all diseases of the longs are
1 Schenck's Pulmonic Stbup, Schenck's Ska Weed
Tonic, and Schenck's Mandrake Pills, and, if taken
before the longs are destroyed, a speedy enre Is effected.
To these three medicines Dr. J. II. Schenck, of Phlla1
dolpbls, owes his on rivaled success in the treatment of
[ pulmonary diseases.
" The Pnlmonlc Syrup ripens the morbid matter In the
' longs; nature throws it off by an easy expectoration, for
when the phlegm or matter is ripe a alight cough will
1 throw it off; the patient naa rest and the lungs begin to
, heal.
, To enable the Pnlmonlc Syrnp to do this, Schenck's
Mandrake Pills and Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic mnst be
freely used to cleanse the stomach and liver. Schenck's
Mandrake Pills act on the liver, removing all obstruc.
tlons, relax the gall bladder, the bile starts freely, and
t the liver is soon relieved.
| Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic la a gentle stimnlant and
, alterative; the alkali of wbtcb it la composed mixes
t with the food and prevents souring. It assists the digestion
by toning np the stomach to a healthy condition, so
that the food and the Pulmonic Syrup will make good
blood; then the loDgs heal, and the p-.tient will surely
get well If care is taken to prevent fresh cold.
' All who wish to consult Dr. Scheook, either personally
or by letter, can do so at his prlnolpal office, corner of
Sixth and Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every Monday.
Sohenck's medicines are sold by all drngglata thnvjehI
out the oonntry.
To Our Lady Readerg,
We clip the following from a recent nnmber
of llarper's Ladies' Bazar, on aooount of the,
to us, new theory of Coemetic. This lady at
leaet gives her patrons the advantage of knowing
what they are naing :
MISS KOOLK INTERVIEWED.
Rkpobtkr.?I called this morning to learn from your
own lips fuller particulars regarding your new theory of
Cosmetic for the Complexion.
Miss K ?I will aid you to the extent of my ability.
Yon cannot do abetter kindness than to warn against
the use of the Pcwders and Liquids so generally used in
this country.
Rftokter ? Your skin shows no indications of 11
treatment (she has a beautiful complexion).
Miss K.?No; thanks to Prof. Habener, of Vienna.
For about four years I used powders and washes .until I
had ruined my skin. I looked older at thirty, over ten
years ago, than now.
Rkportib.?Did the professor acquaint you with his
treatment of yonr case ?
Miss K.?Yes; it is no secTect and simplicity Itself.
Wo - W a/4 a ana thn flosmnf In T u ss nilnv ?nH nrnnnnnn.
ed it villainous. Said there should be a law to punish
people who would offer sach hurtful preparations to the
ftnblic. He Rave me the formula which I am now cfferng
to the ladies.
Reporter.?But what is the theory of this treatment
?
Miss K ?Common sense. Every pore has its little
repository or sac, just under the skin, containing fatty
matter. Now, what makes children's skin so smooth
and fair is the fact that the pores are closed, or nearly
so, and protect tho contents of these little receptacle*.
As we grow older, by the use of foap in washing and ia
many other ways, the pc-es become relaxed, or opened,
and this fatty substance, which is the healthglving
principle to the skin, is destroyed. His theory is ti close
the pores or contract them to protect what nature
placed under them.
Reporter.?That ceitainly is good logic. But does
it whiten the skin when applied ?
Miss K ?Yes: a brunette m?y become a blonde temporarily.
It produces a fresh, youthful look to the skin.
Reporter.?Why do you not prepare it and put it before
the public in the ordinary way ?
Miss K.?I prefer to furnish the ladies with the receipt:
they can then see they are using nothing injurious
; can procure it at any druggist's at a mere nominal
expense: I charge the ?1 to meet the expenses of
advertising. ?...
Reporter.?You know It Is beneficial to the skin ?
Miss K. -Yes, from experience; besides I have given
it to some of our best physicians, wh^ttow prescrib t?
Reporter.-Then I will say to lady readers tbey can
get the formula by <endfog 91 to Miss J. M. Kools,
f. O Box 4130. New York City.
Miss K.?If you please: thank vou.
