Sweet Rcsks.?One quart new milk,
three tablespoonfnls yeast, flour to
make a thick batter ; mix at night, and
in the morning add one cupfnl fresh
lard and one cupfnl sugar rubbed together,
three eggs well beaten, preserving
the white of one ; beat this to a
stiff froth; add a little sugar, and
spread over the top. They are excellent.
Ice Ckeam.?To three pints of cream
add three pints of milk, one cap of j
sugar. one egg well beaten, one table- !
spoonful vanilla flavor; put into :
the freezer without cooking. j
Green Corn Fritters.?Grate a sufficient
number of ears of ripe corn to
make n quart ; rub together quarter of
a pound of bu;ter, quarter of a pound of
sugar, aud three tnblespoonfuls flour, a
pinch of salt; stir into this one quart of
rich milk, eight eggs, well beaten, and
lastly the grated corn ; if not thick
enough a little more flour may be add- j
ed; fry in hot butter, or bake in a ;
piulding dish. You may make half
this quantity.
Cocoanut Cakes.?To the milk of
one cocoanut add as much water, dissolve
one pound of white powdered
sugar in the milk and water; boil it
until i. t ecomes a " ropy " syrup, then
turn it into a buttered dish ; beat well

add the mixed cocoanut, beating well all
the time: drop a tablespoonful at a
time; on buttered paper ; try one first,
if it " runs " beat in more sugar. Bake
in a very moderate oven, watch closely
to prevent them from browning.
Ye.vii Cutlets.?Have the cutlets cut
from the fillet about three-fourths of an
inch thick and about as large as the
palm of your hand; grate some#stale
bread and rub through a colander, adding
to it salt, pepper, sweet marjoram,
grated yellow rind of a lemon, a little
powdered mace and grated nutmeg;
spread this on a large flat dish, beat up
some eggs, dipping each cutlet into the
egg, then into the prepared bread, seeing

The evil consequences liable to result I
from exposure to a burning sun are only ;
too well understood ; but it is, perhaps,
not so generally known that in many
parts of the world, notably in India,
there is a strong and very general prejudice
against sleeping in full moon- :
shine, as it is supposed to produce j
" moonstroke." Au old Indian resident j
has recently been devoting his attention \
to the subject, and comes to the conclusion
that any ill effects arising from \
sleeping in the moonlight are not due to
any direct influence of the moon itself.
His explanation of the origin of this pre-!
alent belief in the baleful qualities of j
the goddess of night is very rational,
and may be summarized thus : A clear
sky admits of rapid radiation, and any {
person exposed to such radiation is sure
to be chilled by rapid heat. There is
reason to believe that, under the circum- :
stances, paralysis of one side of the face
is sometimes likely to occur from chill,
as one side of the face is more likely to be ;
exposed to rapid radiation, and consequent
loss of heat. The chill is more |
likely to occur when the sky is perfectly
clear and in full moon. The whole matter
thus comes clear on this explanation.
Prolonged exposure to cold is
almost certain to produce headache,
neuralgia, or even paralysis, owing to
the retardation of the circulation, and
these similar injuries have| been attributed
to the moon when the proximate
cause may really have been the chill,

The Malleability of Gold.
Mr. A. E. Outerbridge, Jr., of the
Philadelphia assay office, has recently 1
given au examplo of the infinite divisi- j
bility of matter, by exhibiting before ;
the Franklin institute some thin films of
gold obtained by electric deposition j
upon copper and afterward detached.
These pieces of gold leaf were transparent,
and gave a green color to trans- j
mitted light. Mr. Outerbridge has thus
produced films of gold so thin that one
grain of the metal would cover nearly
four square feet. This is 10,000 times
thinner than ordinary paper ; and 2,708,000
of such films together would moke
raiy onc inch in thickness
each side ol tue meat; nave Domng
some sweet lard aid a small quantity of
butter added, in which fry your cutlets,
turning them three times, but be careful
they do not burn. Place in a hot
covered dish; make a gravy by
sifting flour into the fat in the pan,
stirring until it is a rich brown, when
add boiling water to form the right
consistency ; add, lastly, a little chop
ped parsley and vinegar, and pour, boiling,
over the cutlets. Serve at once.
Making Batter in Hammer.
The first thing requisite to making
good butter is to have good cows, good
pasture, good water, and 6alt for the
cows twice a week. Next, good management
of the milk. The milk should
be cooled immediately after milking, that
it may keep sweet longer and yield more
cream. The pails used in milking should
be of tin, as it is impossible to cleanse
wooden pails so perfectly that they will
not impart some degree of acidity to the
milk. Nothing receives a tint more easily
than milk or cream, and all bad odors
absorbed by the milk will be retained by
the butter. A cool spring-house is best
to keep milk in, or a cool cellar (not too
(lamp) having all decayed vegetable matter
removed. "Washing the walls with
lime will greatly aid in keeping it pure.
Wash the vessels used in warm water,
inside and out; then scald with boiling
water, and place in the sun. The churn,
butter bowl and ladle should be washed
and scalded with equal care. Sunshine
and pure air are all that ought to stand
in the chum between churning times.
The milk should be skimmed as soon as
the cream has risen. If left too long the
surface will become watery; while underneath,
the cream is rapidly yielding to
the corrosive acid in the milk, and becomes
a thin watery substance, neither
cream hor milk. The best plan then is
to give it to the pigs. A good plan is to
save the stoppings?say a pint from each
cow?cooling it perfectly before putting
it in the cream jar; stir well each time
new is added.
In regard to working butter, there is a
great difference of opinion. Experience
has taught us it should be worked but
once, and then gentlv. It is composed
of minute globules, which are crushed by
too much working, making the butter
greasy. We are not in favor of washing
butter if it can be avoided; use pure salt
which is perfectly white and will dissolve
in cold water, leaving no sediment. The
brine will be perfectly clear, having no
bitter taste. An ounce to a pound of
butter is enough, as too much salt destroys
the delicate flavor of good butter.

A correspondent gives a tlirillmg ac|
eouL:t of the horrible massacre of two men
and a woman by Indians in the Black
Hills: An eye-witness* who was-cutting
hay within a quarter of a mile, tells

succession of rapid shots fired over the
bluff from where he was mowing, he got
up on a high timbered elevation and saw
about twenty Indians engaged in a fight
with two men and a woman who occupied
an ox train. The men defended
themselves gallantly against the great
odds. They were well-armed, and fought
as only men fight for their lives. The
Indians, instead of coming up in a body,
broke in every direction and surrounded
the wagon, peeping up a constant trail
of bullets upon the poor unfortunates.
Three of the oxen were first to fall.
Waggomen, the owner of the outfit, and
the husband of the lady, next was shot
through the head. Mrs. Waggomen
seized her husband's revolver and discharged
the contents among the Indians,
who were now close upon the wagon.
After she had emptied the weapon she
flung it full in the face of a burly savage
who was reaching over the wagon to
grasp her. He reeled back but others
took his place.

ly finished, and there remained but the
lady to deal with. The Indians had
since the beginning of the conflict been
careful not to injure her, and their bullets
were directed chiefly toward the two
men. The poor woman, knowing her
probable fate, fought like a tigress,
clutching an empty gun and striking
right and left, but to no avail. She was
finally overpowered and brought to the
ground, but the woman fought so hard
that they procured some tent stakes
which were in the wagon and staked the
limbs and body of the poor woman firmly
to the ground. After they had accomplished
their horrible deed they took her
scalp and horribly mutilated her, and
then dispatched her. The shrieks of the
woman could be heard distinctly where
my informant was lodged, powerless to
help and almost dead with fear.
When the savages began sacking the
wagon they observed the witness of their
cruelty standing on the bluff, and two
of them started in pursuit. He, however,
made good time, and succeeding in
reaching Crook, about nine miles off,
without falling into their clutches.
Soon after the massacre the Bismarck
stage rolled by the fatal spot. There
were no Indians in sight, and the passengers
were horrified at seeing the sight
before them. Both of the two men had
been scalped and their ears and noses cut
off. The bodies of the poor unfortunates
were taken to Crook and there interred.
They belonged to Brainard,
Minn., and had come into the Hills early
this spring, made their little stake and
were on their way home when the fatal
accident befell them.
A Legitimate Business.
Well-directed energy and enterprise
are the life of American progress ; but,
if there is one lesson taught more plainly
than others by the great failures of
late, it is that safety lies in sticking to a
lr>or timato VmniriARfl Vo mnrmfneturer. !
trader or banker has any more right to
be so energetic and enterprising as to
take from his legitimate business the
capital which it requires to meet any
emergency.
Apologies are sometimes made for
firms who have failed, by requiring to
the important experiments they have
aided, and the unnumbered fields of enterprise
where they have freely scattered
their momy. We are told that individual
losses, sustained by these failures,
will be nothing compared with the
benefits conferred on the community by
their liberality in contributing to everv
public Work. There is little force in such
reasoning. A man's relations to a credi
tor are vastly different from his relations
to what is called the public. The demands
of the one are definite, the claims
of the other are just what the ambition
of the man may make them.
The liistorie's of honorable, successful
business men unite to exalt the importance
of sticking to a legitimate business,
and it is most instructive to see that, in
the greater portion of the failures, the
real cause of disaster was the branching
out beyond a legitimate business, in the
taking hold of this and that tempting
off?r, and, for the sake of some great
gain, venturing where they did not
know the ground, and could not know
the pitfall.
Another Distressed Nobleman.
A tramp came along the other day,
says the Bridgeport Standard, and confided
to the impressible better half of a
farmer on the road that he was a count,
who was traveling through the country
in this humble way seeking a true heart
which he might win and take back with
him to share in the revenues of his
immense estates in Italy. He begged
that she wouldn't mention the fact, as it
might interfere with his cherished plan
of being loved for himself alone. She
promised not to say a word about it, and
invited the count to stop with them- all
night, giving him thfi best bed in the
house and the seat nearest the beefsteak
at the supper table. The meal was ^uite
a revelation to her in the matters ol the
table habits of the nobility of Europe,
but the discovery she made in the morning
was still a greater eye-opener. His
lordship had departed in the small hours, j
taking with him, probably as cherished
souvenirs, the larger portions of the bed
linen, the farmer's beet boots, an old
horse-pistol and half a ham. He left a
scrawling misspelled note, that he must
away, as his passionate longing for the
true heart of which he was ever in search
would not let him rest until they were
united. The farmer loaded his shot gun,
took the road, and was gone two days,
but didn't find the count. He must have
gone back to his estates in Italy.
Fashions in Turkey.
Writing under a recent date from
Constantinople a correspondent says : j
1 told you some time ago that a sumptn- j
ary law had been issued against the use
by the women of thin yashmaks, fashionably-cut
ferajees, and high-heeled
French boots. When this law was
promulgated the detective police were
instructed to stop any woman who did
not conform to it, to demand her address,
and having obtmued it, to proceed
to her house, and when there to warn
her relatives of the impropriety of her
conduct. The women, however, would
have been unworthy of their sex and
their country if they had not proved
themselves more than a match for the
police. The detectives now complain
that when they have accosted a culprit
and have obtained an address from her,
they have almost invjiriably found, on
visiting the house named by her, that
she had given them a false address, and
that nothing but derision and contumely
awaited them. It is now. announced
that in future the police will follow
every culprit to her housfy and thtfu and j

TRICKY RUSSIAN SOLDIERS.
A Raul oil a Sauna#*' am! a Shopkeeper's
Indignation?Tlif Cossack Who was
Reminded of Hi* I'nlfter.
A war correspondent, writing from
Oltenitza on the Danube, gives the following
incidents of the manner in which
the Russian soldiers on duty there sometimes
"get even" with the graspiug
uatives :
The forced quiet of this little town is
at times oppressive. When a whole day
has passed without a single shot from
either line of the batteries frowning at
each other along the river bank the conversation
in the little cafe gets dull and
spasmodic, and at last dickers and goes
out like a burned up candle, simply for
want of something to feed it. It was, j
then, with an approach to excitement
that we, who had no other occupation all'
the forenoon than shifting our chairs
around the corner of the cafe as the
shadow moved with the advancing sun,
saw a crowd of infantrymen gather at the
door of the little shop opposite and
hoard the noise of a dispute within grow
louded and louder. Discussions between
the soldiers and the natives are
not by any means infrequent, and if there
had been any otlie* diversion I should
not have paid the' least attention to the
one of which I speak. However, when
1.Q mow nf tli? fnwn n. shnrt thick
set, active little body, who now finds
no other field for the exercise of his
authority except the ever-recurring differences
between the citizen and soldier
?went across the street through the
blazing sunlight and mingled his highkeyed
voice with the chorus I thought it
time to investigate the affair myself.
The situation was too ludicrous. There
stood the sharp-featured shopman, his
dark eyes fairly flashing with rage,
flourishing a large sausage at a mild
looking infantryman, who on his side
had a piece of the same kind of sausage,
but only about a third as long. I
thought I could see a hint of a smile
under the soldier's white mustache and
a twinkle in his gray eyes, but until the
mayor has summoned the colonel from
his quarters opposite and the shopman
was paid] and the crowd disperse I had
no idea of the cause of the disputed, being
totally unable to seize enough words
of the jargon of Russian and Roumanian
that was fl; "ng about to make one complete
phrase.
It turned out that the soldier went
into the shop with a couple of comrades
to buy a sausage. He made his bargain,
put the sausage under his left arm and
took out his purse to pay for it. Before
he put the monev down he asked the
price again. " Four francs," says the
shopkeeper. "Four francs for this
- ' >? __ii_ i.i- -
piece 01 oau sausage, yeuus me uumiw,
holding out to the astonished native a
piece only about one-third of the whole
sausage he had that moment stowed
undernis arm. "Takeout old'sausage,
you thieving native," and he started
to overtake his comrades who were by
that time half way up the street. But
the native was too quick for h m and
hold him until a crowd gathered and
the affair terra mated as I have described.
The trick was a shrewd one, but a little
"too thin" to cteo^ive even a Walla- |
chian. * The two comrades hail in accordance
with a previous agreement,
taken the opportunity while there was a
dispute about the price to cut off the
longer part of the sausage which appeared
from the soldier's arm behind,
and made their way to the camp with
their booty. This mild species of robberv
is not rare, and one must sympathize
with the soldiers more or less in
their attempts to get even with the natives,
for in all matters of trade the soldiers
invariably get worsted. Their
paper money is taken for only two-thirds
its real value ; the moment a soldier
enters a shop door the prices rise two or
three per cent, or more, and it is generally
11 Take or leave it" with the shopman,
who takes advantage of the meed of
the soldier to drive a sharp bargain. Very
few oases of open robbery have come
under my notice, and the only instance
of skillful thievery that I have heard of
will well bear relating.
An old peasant had just come to town
to buy groceries for the week, and,
naturally enough, walked down the
street with a little self-consciousness at
the thought of having a purse will filled
with Russian roubles, by the sale of
his last load of hay at the camp. Before
he reached the shop, or had even
had time to take a glass of raki in the
little groggery, he was met by a Cossack,
who, without any ceremony, fell
upon his neck and kissed him with effusion,
exclaiming to the astonished peasant
m broken Roumanian that he looked
so much like his old father away off on
the banks of the Don that the impulse
to embrace him was irresistible. It
seems tuac cue Beuumeui wt? uuuuigiuuo,
for tbe peasalrt, after Idbking at the Cossack
for a lnomeLt,-cried out that he
called to mind the pride of the family
who was away with the Roumanian army
at Knlafat, .and the Cossack had to endure
the embrace in his turn. This
could not last long, of course, and after
an exhaustive struggle to express his
Jov in a language that was almost entirely
unknown to him the Cossack took
his leave, promising to see his adopted
father in a day or two. When the simple
old fellow went to pay for his tea and
sugar he found he had no purse. He
went immediately to the mayor, but his
would-be son could not be found.
Enemies.
Have you enemies ? Go straight on,
and mind them not. If they block up
your path, walk around them, and do
your duty regarc^ese of their spite. A
man who has no enemies is seldom good
for anything. He is made of that kind
of material which is so easily -worked
that every one has a hand in it. A sterling
character?one who thinks for himself,
and speaks what he thinks?is
always sure to have enemies. They are
as necessary to him as fresh air ; they
keep him alive and active. A celebrated
character, who was surrouuded with
enemies, used to remark : " They are
sparks which, if you do not blow, will go
out of themselves." Let this be your
feeling while endeavoring to live down
the scandal of those who are bitter
against you. If you stop to dispute,
von do but as they desire, and open the
way for more abuse. Let the poor fellows
bilk ; there will be a reaction if yon
perform your duty, and hundreds who
were once alienated from you will flock
to you and acknowledge their error.

Gold Pro?lnet for 1877.
For the fiscal year ending Juno 20,
1877, the total ooinoge of all the United
Stnfes'mints, except Can on City, Nevada,
was $71,000,000, or $14,000,000 more
than ever before. The coinage of the
San Francisco branch mint was the
largest annual mint product ever known
in the world, amounting to $46,101,500.
This same branch mint, since its establishment
in 1854, has shown a coinage of
$430,532?553 in gold, and $26,049,712 in
silver. This is hardly one-third of the
product of the mines of the Pacific slope
during that period. But much of the
bullion is sent'East in the form of bar?,
etc., and a small portion is handled at
the Carson branch mint. In former
years the Philadelphia mint did the main
part of the coinage, and still does an
immense business. The following shows
the relative coinage of gold and silver
at San Francisco during the past five
years, Wliile the silver coinage has increased
materially owing to the recent
act regarding $50,000,000 of currency and
silver coin, the great bulk of the metals
coined is still gold:

Is Coffee Wholesome 1
I know it is palatable, as very few people
dislike it; but many eschew it on aocount
of its deleterious effects. Its odor
in preparing is delicious, far more so
than the actual drinking of it. I am as
fond of it as any one, but have not taken
a cup in twenty-five years. It is more
productive of bile, especially to people
of sedentary habits, than any other thing
that can be drank or eaten. Indeed, the
most noted physicians protest against its
use beyond a single cup at breakfast, in
| which proportion it can be taken with
safety. But where it is profusely indulged
in, it is as injurious to health as
any alcoholic stimulant. If one pound
of coffee should be so used as to last a
family of ten persons for a week, I see it
stated, no hurtful results would ensue.
But here it should stop. I should think,
however, that by persons accustomed to
severe out-door exercise or labor of any
kind, it could, to a larger extent, be
taken with safety. Children should
never touch it, or tea either, except the
latter be very weak. The old-fashioned
way of making coffee is undoubtedly the
best, which is to buy the coffee in the
grain, scorch it until a light brown, and
grind it as it is wanted. The water
should be boiling when poured over the
coffee, the pot of course closed tightly,
and then give it another boil for minute

A Scene in California.
One of the miners died, and having
been much respected, it -was determined
to gif e him a regular funeral. A digger
in. the vicinity, who, report said,
had once been; a powerful preacher in
the United States, was called upon to
officiate ; and after lt drinks all round,"
the party proceeded, with becoming
gravity, to the grave, which had been
dng at a distance of a hundred yards
from the camp. When this spot was
reached, the officiating minister commenced
with au extempore prayer,
during which all knelt rouud the grave.
So far was well ; but the prayer was unnecessarily
long, and at last some of
those who knelt, began, in an abstract
way, to finger the loose earth that had
been thrown up from the grave. It
was thick with gold ; and an excitement
was immediately apparent in the
kneeling crowd. Upon this, the preacller
stopped, and inquiringly said:" Boys,
what's that ? Gold 1" he exclaimed,
" and the richest kind of diggings ! "
The congregation are dismissed! The
poor miner was taken from his auriferious
grave and was buried elsewhere ;
whilst the funeral party, with the parson
at their head, lost no time in prospecting
the new digging.

The Pale Air Streaked with Blood.
There are people in Chicago who are
quoting with apparent amusement the
following from the Tribune's account of
the riot: " Fromjthe viaduct south the
avenue was crowded with roughs. They
poured in from the side streets, their
hands fnll of stones. The police met
them, head on.. The sickening crash of
clubs followed, and the pale air was
streaked with blood. Huge, bloated
women at the windows yelled encouragement
and defiance. Pistol balls shrieked
as they flew. The clash of sabers and
shouts of maddened men made the hot
air hideous. Horses were spurred into
j the mob, Bwords rose and fell with crnei
i significance. Alleys were gutted of
molteij. masses of enraged humanity.
Great massive blows fell on theii
passion stained faces, and tore the rage

Thousands or mother* have pi??e<l on reeord
thsir belief. that for all complaint* of the .stomach and
j bowels to wnich children are subject,
, Tarrant's Effervescent Seltzer Aperient
; is the most unexceptionable of correctives and alterai
tires. The reasons for this belief are obvious. It forms
a delicious and most refreshing draught, relieves the
l bowels of all acrid matter without pain, allays fever, ini
duces sleep, strengthens digestion, neutralizes acid in
the stomach, cares flatulency, acte aa a gentle etimnlant,
1 tonoe the tender nerves, and never gripe* the patient.
