Take a pound of chicken giblets, half a pound of little eggs that hens dressed for market nsually have, and | half a pound of mushrooms. Put the ! giblets on first in your chafing dish and cover with water and stew slowly. Then add the eggs whole and the mushrooms cut in slices, a table spoonful of butter, pepper aud salt to taste, an onion that has been sliced and fried in butter, the piece of a , lemon, and at the last a good pinch of cayenne pepper and a little flour thick ening. This makes a delicious dish served on toast or on. pattie crusts. To stems wash shake Cream of Spinach Soup. Cream of spinach is delicious, make it, pick leaves from the of two quarts of spinach, through several cold waters, lightly to free from sand, ami throw them into a warm kettle; there will be sufficient water remaining on the leaves to create steam for the cook ing. Shake aud toss for five minutes. Drain the spinach; chop it tery tine and then press it through a sieve. Add gradually, stirring all the while, one quart of cold milk. This should have the consistency of thin cream, and be of a bright green color. Put in a double boiler, moisten a teaspoon ful of arrowroot or half a tablespoon ful of cornstarch with <• little cold milk; add this to the soup; stir while it boils. Strain and season. Itaimna Shortcake. Banana shortcake is a dish the ma terials for which are usually at hand, and it is, therefore, one that may be written down iu the emergency note book. The formula ns put out by the Boston Cooking School requires the dough to be made by mixing in a pinf prepared flour two tablespoon fuls ot butter and two-thirds of a cup of milk, or enough to make a light mixture that eau be handled. This pastry is divided, half put into a pain, the top buttered, and the second half laid upon it. When naked, the split ting of the cake is easily accomplished with a knife. Meantime, a few ban anas are cut up aud put in a hot syrup made of a cup of sugar aud the juice of oue lemon. This filling is spread between the layers; aud if the dish is intended to be particularly toothsome and elaborate, w hipped cream may be sorved with it.

Kuowing this, onr attention should be turned toward making them what they should be, i. e., wholesome and digestible. To this end remember that good, healthful food cannot be made from poor material. Especially true is this of whatever is used for shortening. When one can get it,country rendered lard is beat; next to that, what is called butcher’s lard. Lard mixed with cottonseed oil is permissible if the oil is not rancid. |For each pie allow one cup of flour end one-half cup of good, sweet lard; add a small saltspoonful of salt and mix thoroughly> then add just water enough to mix together. The exact amount of water cannot be given, as some flour requires more moisture than others to form a dough. Grease your pie tins with lard or butter, press the crust smoothly in the tin to ex clude air puffs, put iu your filling, cover aud press the edges well to gether, then bake iu a quick oven. If proper attention is paid to the baking a pie may be easily slipped o 1 of the tin as soon as it is done, aud it will be a delight to the family, so far as the crust is concerned. Iu bak ing very juicy fruit pies line your tins with the crust, till with fruit well sweetened, then cover with strips of crust in diamond shape or in squares. Now firmly press one of the strips of crust around the ends over the edge of the cross strips and bake in a quick oven. These can also be easily slipped from the tins aud in appearance they are very inviting. Always use tin plates to bake pies on and if they are nearly new the pies should not be allowed to stand on them longer than to cool.—What to Eat. Household Hints. Always keep steel ornaments . in powdered starch to prevent mating. Always make starch with soapy wa ter, which will give a better gloss to the linen and prevent the irons -from sticking. ^ Never add salt to new milk used for gravies, stews, etc., until jusj before serving if you would avoid '<?urdling the milk. Always invert the wash tnbs and put a little water on the bottom of them, so they will not dry out and leak before the following wash day. Always rub a little soft (not melted) bntter over the top of bread dough when in a mass, after being molded into loaves. This prevents a hard crust. Never read, nor sew, nor write im mediately after coming from compara tive darkness into a bright light, if yon have good eyes and would keep them good. Always see that shoes are properly cured for when taken off at night. Straigkteu and smooth out the wrin kles, draw down the instep and pall up from the heel. Always open canned fruit or vegeta bles au hour or two before they are needed, that the flavor may be im proved. And always empty the con tents of a tin can into a glass or china dish as soon as it is opened. Never despair when linen seems hopelessly scorched from an over heated iron. Soak the stain in luke warm water, squeeze lemon juice on it, sprinkle a little salt over it, and place it in the sunshine to bleach. Twa Bird Stories. A French surgeon at Smyrna, ing to procure a stork, and flm great difficulty In doing so, on aceo of the extreme veneration in whlcl these birds are held by the Turks, stoii all the eggs out of a neat and replac-’ ed them with those of a hen. In course of time the young chickens made their appearance, much to the astonishment of the old stork couple. Soon after the male stork went away and was not seen for two or three days, when he returned with an immense crowd of his companions, who all assembled In the place and formed a circle, taking no notice of the numerous spectators which so unusual an occurrence had collected. Mrs. Stork was then entic ed forward Into the midst of the cir cle, and, after some consultation, the whole flock fell upon her and tore her to pieces; after which they Immediate ly dispersed and the nest was aban doned. A pair of martins, having built In the corner of a window, one of which, from a remarkable white feather in one of its wings, was known to be the same bird which had built there a year before, had no sooner finished their nest than a strange swallow con ceived the plan of taking possession of ♦he property and once cr twice actually succeeded in driving the owners out. For a week there was a constant bat tling. At length the two rightful own ers were observed to be very busily engaged in lessening the entrance into the nest, which in a short time was so reduced that it was with difficulty they could force themselves into it singly. When they had accomplished their ob» ject, one or other of them always re mained within with i^ bill sticking out ready to receive any sudden attack. The enemy perserved for a week, but at length, finding its prospects hope less, left the pair to enjoy the fruits 5f their forethought.—Chicago News. A Naval Hi-ro’s Story. From the Time*-Herald, Chicago, IU. Late in 1861, when President Lincoln is sued a call for volunteers, L. 3. Clark, of Warren, Trumbull Co., Ohio, was among the first to respond. He joined the mortar fleet of Admiral Porter just before the me morable operations on the Mississippi River began. It was at the terrlflo bombardment of t^e Vicksburg forts, that the hero of this story fell with a shattered aim from a charge ot schrapnel. After painful months in the hospital, he recovered sufficiently to be sent to his home at Warren, Ohio. Another call for troops fired bis patriotic zeal and Clark soon en listed in Company H, of the 7th Ohio Vol unteers. In the army of the Potomac, ne was in many engagements. Being wounded in a skirmish near Richmond, he was sent to the hospital and thence home.

He Anally recovered sufficiently to be out but was a mere shadow, weighing only 90 pounds. The iiest medical attendance failed to restore his lost strength and vigor "A friend gave me a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People,” said Dr. Clark ‘‘and they helped me so much that I bought a half dozen boxes and took them. I soon regained my strength, now weigh 190 pounds and, except for Injuries that oan never be remedied, am as well as ever. “I consider Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People the best remedy to build up a run down system, and heartily recommend them to everyone in heed of such aid,” Tactful Persuasion. Among Gen. Chalmers’ troops, during the civil war, was a Mississippi regi ment composed of boys from 12 to 1-1 years old, and old men from 60 to 75. They had responded to a call for troops! and were mischievously known by the nickname, “Tax in Kind.” For each farmer in the Confederacy had given the Government 10 per cent, of his crops, which was thus designated; and a rascal among the regular troops, one day seeing a little boy with an old squirrel rifle twice as long as its owner, said to him, “Are you Tax in Kind?*'-- nnd the phrase stuck. Before going into camp, on the first night near Memphis, the colonel of th« Tax in Kind regiment approac hed Geu.

It simply and amply protects, by compelling the foe to give undivided attention to himself for awhile instead of to the intended victim. It is the only real weapon which protects and also makes fun, laughter and lots of it; it shoots, not once, but mi.ny times without reloading; and will protect by its appearance in time of danger, although loaded only with liquid.
