This is a most appetizing dish. Cleaning Stoves.-?Stovo luster, when mixed with turpentine, and ap plied, in the usual nionnor, is blacker and ?iui? glossy, and more durable than when mixed with nhy other liquid. The turpentine prevents rust, and when put on an old rusty stove, will make it look as well as now._ Fon Keeping Cider Bwbet.?Take of cround mustard seed four ounces, new iilK one quart; ^^otger put it into the cider. After letting :t .stand two crthroe days ruck it on* through a holo the sizo of d gimlet; then wash the barrel clean and smoke it well with brimstone; put the eider in and stop it up airtight. _ ? s jo HjiNds.?Th? simplest rem edy is found in overy one a kitchen closet, and is common starch,, Reduce it to an impalpable powder, pat it it in a muslin bag, keep it in the table drawer. Whenever you take your hands but of dishwater or puds, wipe them dry with a soft towel, and while ?et damp, shake tho.stareh bag all over hem and rub it in.' The effect is most agreeable. Oertain Ours for a RatttjEsnake Bits or Sfidbr Sting.?A physician in Oregon writes*-: "'Take the yolk of a goof egg, Iput id ?tenonp'and stirin ?i | much salt as will mako it thick enough not to run off, and spread a plaster and apply to the wound. Do this.when bitten or stung,1 and I will insure your life for a sixpence, . I have tried this remedy in a number of eases/and have never known it to fail." Cottage Cheese.?Place thick, lop pored milk on the stove, and .let it. heat, thoroughly,'not t$ cook, 6? it will be hard. Pour into a coarse cloth, and let it drain until dry ; season wjth salt and butter. Should it be rawer'dry, mois ten with milk or cream, and make into balls. Some prefer what is called " smearkase." Prepare the milk as stated above, but instead of making into bails, thin with -sweet cream and add a i:aL.'X.<aOvJ i I v'6 ti?.' 5 5 9 ? Erastvb Soap.?Recipe for making genuine erasivo soap that will remove grease and stains from clothing : Two pounds of good oastile soap, half pound of carbonate ef potash dissolved in' a half pint of hot water.

Sheeps' Hearts Boasted.?Having washed the hearts, stuff each with an , onion parboiled ana then minced flue, two tablespoonsful of bread-crumbs, half a tea spoon ful of chopped or dried sage, and sufficient black pepper and salt to season highly. Press the stuffing well into the hearts, and, if necessary, fasten a little muslin over the top to keep it in. Whilst roasting baste fre quently. They may also be baked, but care must be taken not to let them get dry. Any heart that may be left is ex cellent hashed, OirEAP^iirEbAa.^-Take a quantity of common Irish potatoes, wash them until thoy are thoroughly clean, place them in a largo vessel' and boil them until done. Drain off carefully the water they woro cooked in,* straining it, if neooessary, in order to remove every particle of tho potato. Then put this potato water in a jug or keg, which set near the stove, or in some place where it will be kept warm, and add one pound of sugar to about two and one half t gallons of water, some hop yeast, or a ? little whiBky. Let it stand three or four weeks, and yon will have excellent vine gar, at a cost of six or seven cents per gallon. 5 .' . The Cams op Oni-oLOTHS.?An oil cloth requires careful treatment and should never be scrubbed with a brush, bat aftor being .swept with the long handled hair brushes that are made for the purpose it should bo carefully wash ed with a large, soft cloth dipped into milk and water?half-and-half; or, if the milk is not obtainable, tepid water without soap, The latter ruins oil- clot h by taking/off the brightness of the paint, and it should never be applied tj it. , Hot water is aleo very injurious to it; either of them?soap or hot water? being sure to injure the oil-cloth more than the wear of it. When washed over, wipe it off with a soft, dry oloth, and it will always retain a bright look. In purchasing an oil-cloth, it is very desir able to obtain one that has been made for several years, as the longer it haa lain unwashed the better it will wear? the paint becoming harder and more durable. An oil oloth made within tho year is hardly worth buying, as the paint will bo defaced in a short time. . Judgment of . Musicians.?-Theodore . Thomas, the distinguished founder and conductor of the famous " Thomas' Or chestra," New York, ought to know as well as any one the opinions entertained by musicians respecting musical instru ments. "He declares that they generally agree with him in regarding the Mason & Hamiiin Cabinet Organs as muoh the -bestinstruments of this olass.in the !?orld., It is not, therofore, surprising hat they are: now largoly exported to liUropo, commanding higher prioes there than tho instrumentr of their best makers.?

Willard, of Herkiiner county, New York, the highest authority in the dairy business, says: The curse of American dairying to day is weeds. Whenever thoy get full possession thoy ' become eo formidable that the farmer is often disheartened, and give up their eradication. Many farmers, too, have an erroneous notion in regard to the destruction of weeds on grass lands. The impression often prevails that the only way to get rid of weeds, ia to broak up and thoroughly cultivate the ground in hoed crops. This is not always convenient, or even desirable, for, in many onsen on dairy farms, it can not be done without break ing up the herd or dairy, while some uneven- surf noes can not be plowed; There is another way of killing weeds, suoh aa the daisy and that class' of plants, by the liberal use of manures and grass seeds. I have eradicated white daisy, in several instances, by applying farm-yard manure .and gyp sum, and strewing the ground with a heavy eeeding of olover. Establish yc?r clove; upon the soil, and feed it until it is luxuriant, and in destroys the daisy and other weeds by a system of plant-garroting?strangling it and choking the lifo out of them. Then, some weeds may be killed by frequent ciittiupi, and not allowing them to seed. It is always advisable to pull up or ex terminate bad .weeds on their first ap pearance in pastures, and not. allow them to spread. A Safe Tether-Fin. The Agriculturist for October illus trates a simple device which we infer any one is at liberty to make and use without fear of infringing upon any pa tent. A strong iron rod, say five-eighths or half an inch in diameter, is sharpened at one end and pent into a corkscrew like spiral. The nnsharpened end- is bent into a ring large enough to receive a good-sized rope. It is easy to screw such an iron into anything worthy of being called a soil, using a stiok, if ne cessary^ after the'- manner of an augur handle. Such a tether-pin as this will defy the efforts of the strongest animal to pull it up, and with the ring at the level of the ground it is impossible for the rope to be twisted around the pin. Thin dovice in likewise serviceable in a hundred other ways about a country houne, or, indeed, wherever the surface earth is not covered by a natural or ar tificial pavement of stones. It will hold guy-ropes for shears, er tho lower block of hoisting tackle, or tent ropes, or, in deed, any rope which is to be firmly held at tho surface of the ground, and the great beauty of it is that it does cot get nattered to pieces by being ham mered down every time it in set in a new place._ Broathing Through the Nose. The pernicious habit of breathing through the month, while Bleeping or waking, is very" hurtful. There aro many persona who sleep with the month open, and do not know it. They may go to sleep with it closed, and wake with it cloned; but if the month is dry and parched on waking it is a sign that the month has been open daring sleep. Snoring is a certain sign. Tola habit should do overcome. At all times, ex cept when eating, drinking or speaking, keeop the month firmly closed and broathe through the nostrils, and retiro with a . firm determination to conquer. The nostrils are the proper breathing apparatus?not the month. A man may inhalo poisonous gases through tho month without being aware of it, but not through the hobo.?Science of Health. ? Influence of the Glon. A. S, Fuller writes the New York Tribune as f ollows : Every nurseryman who has had much experience in the propagation of fruit, and other kinds of troes by budding and grafting, is aware of the faot that the oion has more influ ence noon tho stook than the reverse. That the oion which afterward becomes the top of the tree has a powerful influ ence in giving oharaoter to the root, ia so well known even among the common lnborern in n nur.iery that thoy are soon able to determine the style of roots a tree has before putting a spade into the ground when about digging it up. Va rieties with numerous. nnudl twiggy branches will have roots of a corres ponding oharaoter, and vice versa. Still nil may have bepn originally worked upon the same sort of stocks. Can rx be True??Withiu tho lost few months a oonsiderablo number of persona hnvo callod Hpon Dr. Walker, tho'proprietor of the popular medioino known aa Vinegar Bitters, and aoBiircd him that, in their belief, his preparation id air ihialliblo antidote for rhm and to baooo.

Heretofore* the 'Bitters have been rccoguized as a pnreoregetable tonic ahd corrective, devoid 6t alcohol, and thoroughly adapted to the cure of stomach and bowol complaints, nervous disorders, Julious affections, musoular diseases, and, indeed; a majority of the ailmontS within the reach of medicine; but if it will also cure the craving for liquor and tobacco, philosophers, states men and thoologinns ought; to unite their voices in its praise.
