FARM, HARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD Iteclpea. Potato Pudimnu.—Boil four largo potatoes and pass them through a sieve; stir into them powdered loaf- sugar to taste, and the yolks of two or three eggs; add a few drops of essence of lemon, then the whites of the eggs whisked to a froth; mix quickly and well; pour into a plain mold buttered and breadcrumbod, and bake for twenty minutes in a quick oven. Liver Hash.—'This hash is delicate and nppelizing, and nice as a change from the liver and bacon known to all cooks. Boil the liver until thoroughly tender—there must not be even a sus picion of hardness about it. Then mince it finely with a chopping-knife. Heat the mince very hot in a sauce or roux of butter and browned flour. The seasoning is pepper, salt, a dash of lemon, or a little piquant sauce, such as mushroom catsup. California Cake.—One pint of flour one pint of Indian meal, one pint of milk, two eggs, one teaspoonful of soda two spoonfuls of cream of tartar, four tablespoon fuIs of sugar, small piece of butter. Mix the eggs and milk to gether, add sugar iand butter, well beaten, .then Hour and Indian meal, a little nl a time, alternately; mix the cream of tartar in the flour, and the soda in a little of the milk. Bake in pans, and serve hot for breakfast or tea. Rose Sauce.—This is an excellent sauce for puddings, nnd one that looks very pretty. Peel and slice a fine large boet; |boil it geutly for twenty minutes in a pint and a half of water. Then add two pounds and a half of loaf sugar, the thin rind and strained juice of a lemon, nnd half n stick of vanilla. Boil quickly and skim constantly until tho liquid becomes a rich, thick syrup, of a deep red color, then strain. When nearly cold stir in a gill of brandy, and when quite cold bottlo and cork it closely. It will keep any length of time, if properly made. FOR THE FAIR SEX. Cheerful Women. I t marrying, men should seek happy women. They make a torrible mistake when they marry for beauty or for sLyle. The sweetest wives arc those who pos sess the magio secret of being happy under any or every circumstance. Rich or poor, high or low, it makes no differ ence—the bright little fountain of joy bubbles up just as musically in their hearts. Nothing ever goes wrong with them; no trouble is too serious for them “ to make the best ot it.” Was ever the stream of calamity so dark and deep that the sunlight of a happy face across its turbid tide would not awake an answering gleam P Why these joyous tempered people don’t know half the good they dol No matter how cross and crabbed you feel, no matter if your brain is full of meditations on " afllict- iug dispensations ” and your stomach with medicines, pills and tonics, just get one of thoso cheery little wemen talking to you, and we are not afraid, to wager anything that she can cure you. The long-drawn line about your mouth will relax, the cloud of settled gloom will vanish—nobody knows where—and the first thing you know you are laugh ing. Ah! what blessings are those happy women! How often their little hands guide the ponderous machinery ot life with almost an invisible touch! No one knows, no one will ever know, until the day of judgment reveals, how much we owe 10 these hopeful, uncomplaining, happy women. Farm anil <>ardcii Note*. A hen may bo calculated to consume Blxty pounds of grain in a year and lay lifteen pounds of eggs. Never work with dull tools, for they require too great an outlay of strength, both of man and beast set your liens in tho evening if you have to move them from the laying nests, they will be more suro to stick to their new nests afterward. A Canada farmer rids cattle of lice by applying with n cloth along the back bone, water in which onions have been thoroughly boiled. Cayenne pepper, ginger or mustnrd for fowls is quite beneficial. When added to their food it will stimulate egg pro duction, increase their vigor and make them loci well generally. An old gardener says in tho Detroit lYibune, with regard to cultivating onions, that if care is Inkcn to draw away tho earth gradually from the bulbs until they are quito uncovered and only tho fibrous roots are in tho earth, you will never have scullions, but very large, sound onions. A series of experiments has demon slrated that bran possesrs vnluable qualities as a fertilizer, it being claimed to be superior to guano, bonedust, land plaster, etc., by a contemporary. About hnlfaton to tho acre, applied oneo in thres or four years, is sufficient, while tho yield is prodigiously increased. This would make it a cheap dressing. Potush dissolved in water, or lye from wood ashes, is tho best wash for tho trunks and large limbs of fruit trees. Whitewash should not Ire used, as it closes the pores of the bark, which should be kept open in order to insure a healthy tree. Potash or lye answers every purpose which whitewash would, with nono of its objections. Cornstalks arc good fodder for cattle, but there is a grent difference in their value as saved by different farmers. Left out to become weather-beaten, thoy are poor feed for any kind of stock ; but when saved without being injured either by sun or weather, well cured nnd sheltered early, retaining the sweet juices unimpaired, thoyiarc one of the best fodder crops. It pays to cut and secure them early, while thero are some of the juices remaining in them A Mine-Owner’s End. In the spring or summer of 1878 the brothers John and Richard Dillon, with another man named Finnerty, went with thousands of others to the Black Hills in search of silver. They lived and worked together, and prospected on the hills around Leadville for several months without finding any signs of the precious metals and were about to give up when the lucky discovery of the “Little Pittsburg” mine startled all Leadville, and Richard Dillon was shrewd enougn on learning of the dis covery of the mine to stake out a claim close by it. He and his two com panions immediately began digging and in a few days came upon indications which assured them that their mine was of great value. Capitalists soon made them an offer and the deeds of the mine, which was called “ Little Chief,” were sold for $300,000, the pur chasers issuing stock for $1,000,000. The mine soon repaid the purchasers their investment three-fold. The Dil lons on receiving their money went on a permanent spree. Richard Dillon was a comfirmed gambler, and before long the faro-dealers of Leadville had most of his share of the $300,000. He became a lounger around the Leadville bar rooms. One night recently Dillon en tered a faro den and demanded a stack of chips on credit. The dealer, a man named John Crowder, refused, and Dillon drew a pistol. Before he could U3e it Crowder produced his own re volver and shot him dead. Some Notable Trees. Boston is said to own the two first horse chestnut trees brought; to this country. They are on Washington street, and are reputed to be 103 years old. Fash to u notes. Very small bonnet t worn on tho back of tho head are again in vogue. Laces embroidered with metals will be hmong imported fall novelties. Buttons on boots worn with fancy costumes match those on tho suit. Petticoats are made wider to fill the fuller skirts ol the dresses now worn. Cords will play an important Dart in tho trimmings of dresses and wraps this fall. Lace covers to fine carriage sun shades remain in vogue season after season. Ladies who have gray hair do not conceal it, using neither dyes, pomatum nor caps. Smooth coiffures and flat waves, bangs and crovo eceur locks are the rule in hnir-dressing. It is again fashionable to wonr the lmir in coils, in which strings of pearls are twisted. Natural or very lino artificial flowers aro worn in the hair to match those worn in tho corsage. Dresses made of cretonnes, with largo figures, in other words, curtain calicoes, are again in vogue. Among Parisian caprices are large double collars on many dresses prepared for early fall wear. Tho corset cover, the chemise, and tho petticoat are all combined in one gar ment in new underwoar for fall. Fancy recticulcs, worn at tho elbow, aro decorated with all kinds of metallic and enamel insects and reptiles. Low coiU’ures arc most in favor, but short women, or those with round facos, still wear the hair drosBcdhigh. Large embroidered collars like those worn by children aro worn wiih white muslin dresses trimmed with embroid ery. Now night robes have largo full sleeves shirred in at the armholo, and shirred also at tho wrist to a narrow embroidered cuff. High coiffures are no longer formed by braids or puffs, but with soft waves of hair arranged in loops on the crown of the head. Fichu collarettes are worn by older young ladies,while misses in their teens affect large square collars such as little children wear. Some of tho new basques aro cut long and square in front, with a pockot put on each side of this square front; the back of such basques nre short and out to form two points. Ladies who are threatened with bald ness or thin hair on the top of the head can sometimes nrrest tho misfortune by clipping oft' the hair on the top of the head, and brushing it smooth, so as not to show the shingling. Harper's Bazar says that tho walking costume which will bo most iu favor for the autumn is made of soft cloth, with a short skirt plaited f>erpendicularly, and a short redingoto, resembling a man's cutaway coat, of tho same cloth. The opening formed by the revers is filled with a chemisette of fine linen, plaited and closed with three gold buttons. Standing collar and dark cravat. In tho side pocket is a handkerchief, without lace, it should be understood, but finely embroidered. Boots of very fine kid aud felt bat with long plumes. its bark twice a year. A tree recently hewn, that was known to bo only eigh teen years old, showed thirty-six dis tinct rings of growth. When Washington visited Long Is land ho probably crossed the shadow of an old oak tree that still stands on the promises of Judge McCuc, in Babylon. It was made a landmark in 1716, and is therefore a local monument sixty years older than the nation. Old oaks and yews in England are not uncommon. Several oaks felled in Sherwood forest about a quarter of a century ngo exposed, on being sawn up the date 1212 and the mark or cipher of King John; and it has been calculated that these trees must have been several centuries old at the timo the marks were made. At Fowlis Wester, in Perthshire, in the center of the village, standing on a slight knoll about four feet higher than the surrounding ground, is a very large and old sycamore, which girths seven teen feet and fourteen feet two inches at one foot and five feet respectively, with a hole of fourteen feet. The legend goes that “ a man of Poulis planted it on ae Sabbath nicht wi’his thoomb.” Berks, Pa., claims the largest chest nut tree in the country. It is growing on the farm belonging to the estate of Solomon Merkel,in Rockland township, and measures thirty-eight feet four inches in circumference; tho lowest limbs aro fifteen feet from tho ground, and measure fourteen feet in circum ference at the base. The top of the tree is roachcd without danger by stops that are fastened botween the limbs. It is estimated that this treo contains about seventeen cords of wood. It still yields about three bushels of chestnuts annu ally. The oldest yew tree in England, which The Way to Preserve Ice. During illness ice is generally needed in the sick room. The following method ol preserving it is highly recommended and it is certainly worth trying: Cut a piece of flannel about nine inchi: square and secure it by a ligature round tho mouth of an ordinary tumbler, so as to leave a cup-shaped depression A ring does not always denote a year, for the blue gum tree of Australia sheds mouth Words of Wisdom. A gilded frame makes a good picture in the eyes of nearly all the world. The only disadvantage of an honest heart is credulity. The smaller the caliber of mind the great' r the bore of a perpetually open Advice is like snow, the softer it falls the longer iL dwells upon and the deeper it sinks into the minds. Friendship which flows from the heart cannot be frozen by adversity, as tlic water that flows from the spring does not congeal in winter. The sun which ripens the corn and fills tho succulent herb with nourish ment also pencils with beauty the violet aud tho rose. This world is tho book of women. W’hutcver knowledge they may possess is more commonly acquired by observa tion than reading. Do yot wait for the assistance of others in your course through life; you will grow hungry, depend upon it, if you look to the charity and kindness of others for your daily bread. It is more noble and praise worthy to give up your lives nnd meet the troubles and difficulties of human life with a daunt less eourngc. A farmer writes to an exchange: If you desire to geta large yield of rich milk give your cow every day water slightly warm and slightly salted, in which bran bnsbeen stirred at the rate of one quart to two gallons of water. You will find, if you have not tried thisdaily practice, that your cow will give twenty-live per cent, more milk immediately under the effects of it, and she will become so at tached to the diet as to refuse to drink clear water unless very tliirsLy. But this mess she will drink almost any time, and ask for more. The amount of this drink necessary is an ordinary watcr- pa ! l at a timc--morning, noon aud night. Harvest Straws. A twenty-acre lot, cultivated by J.>■ ph Stevens, Hampton,Md., yielded 550 bushels of screened whcih Peter Williams, of Brunswick county, Ga., had just housed his large tobacco crop, when in a storm his barn was blown down and 20,COO pounds of the article ruined. Tho intense heat during tho day, to gether with the brittlcnessof the straw, aused Lancaster county. (Pn.,) farmers to do their harvesting by night by the aid of artificial light. Labor during tho haying and harvest this season in Indiana has not been so scarce and high-priced in sixty-livc years. Two women have found con stant employment in a harvest field at two dollars a day each. Pennsylvania claims to have tho pre mium wheat-field. It is a part of the farm of Mrs. Dr. Nathan Michener, of Coventryvillc, Chester county. From a four-acre field 2,500 sheaves of wheat were hauled into the barn. The army wo.ms, says the Reverend Thomas McCormick, of Baltimore, who is now in nis ninetieth year, suddenly made their appearance in the yenr 180o. A fine wheat-field adjoining tho Ncwiin mill property was the first attacked. They were countless in numbers, and, after stripping the wheat, continued tin ir march into tho adjoining wood lands, which they left entirely denuded of foliage and presenting tho appear ance as if a mighty liail storm had passed through the woods. The wheat field lnd at the cast end a running stream of water that the worms could not havo crossed, so that the cgg3 must have been deposited in tho wheat by the moths. Purifies the Blood, Renovates and Invigorates the Whole System. ITS MEDICINAL PROPERTIES ARB Alterative, Tonic, Solvent and Diuretic situated in Cowhurst churchyard, was mentioned by Aubry, in the reign of Charles I., as then measuring ten yards in circumference at a height of live feet from tho ground. It is said, on the nu- hority of Do Candolle, to bo 1,450 years old. Its present growth is about thirty- threo feet. In 1820 this old tree was hollowed out, and a cannon ball was found in tbo conter. In 1826 a severe storm deprived it of its upright branches. A door has been made to the inside of the tree, whore scats aro to be had for twelvo persons comfortably. A fossil forest has been discovorod in Oktlmru, England, In Edge Lane quarry. The trees number about twelve, and somo ol them aro two feet in diame ter. They are in good preservation Tho roots can be seen interlacing the rook, and tho fronds of the ferns are to bo found imprinted on every piece of stone. Tho discovery has excited much interest In geological circles round Manchester, and tho forest has been visited by a largo number of persons; The trees belong to the middle coal measure peiiod. although it has been re garded as somewhat remarkah e that no coal lias been discovorod near them. Tho coal is found about 250 yards be neath. One Wny of Making Ton Dollars Out or Nino, Charles A. Hill, a St. Louis lawyer who was arrested for clipping one and two-dollar greenbacks in such a way that out of each nine lie made ton. pro ceoded about his nefarious work in an ingenious manner. The process is rather a complicated ono, and needs diagrams for thorough comprehension. Tho careworn ami overworked And coin lor t and strength in Malt Bitters.

When the tendrils begin to start on the plants he nips them off. By going over the plants two or three times after ward, and clipping off the climbing tendrils, the plants become low and bushy and are loaded with early-matur ing pods. flannel within the tumbler to about half its depth, In the flannel cup so constructed pieces of ice may be pre served many hours; all the longer if a piece of flannel four to live inches square be used as a loose cover to the ice cup. Cheap flannel with comparatively open meshes is preferable, as water easily drains through it, and the ice is thus kept quite dry. When good flannel with close texture is employed, a small hole must be made in the bott >m of the flannel cup, otherwise it holds the water and facilitates tho melting of the ice. Placed in a cup of this kind, two ounces of ice has been known to last nine or ten hours. The fashionable colors for early fall wear are pheasant red; tete de faisan; false blue, lapis; rouge de Venise,tawny red, and various shades of metallic, olive and bottle green, and for evening the glaucus green of marsh grasses. Out of one doliar bill “A” he clips a p’ece through the head of Washington three-eighths of an inch wide, aud cut with artistic irregularity. The two ends of the bill are brought a little closer to gether than they were before the piece was taken out, and a rough continuation of the lines of the head is made with ink upon the white surface of the gummed paper beneath. The bill is then ar tistically dirtied, and is ready for shov ing. Bill “B” is then taken up, and a section three-quarters of an inch, or twice as large as that taken out of “A,” is then removed; the pieco taken out of “A” is then inserted between-the two ends of “ B,” the pasting, inking and dirtying repeated, and this bill is also ready for the market. A section an iuclt and a half wide is then removed fr un “ C,” and tho three-quarters cut irom “B” let in, and so the process is con tinued, each bill, instead of its true length of seven and three-quarter inches, being only seven inches. The first one is the most dangerous, because it is hard to doctor up the head of the father of his country in a way that the children of the same will not recognize the old gen tleman, and hence this bill is left the longest of the lot. It is easy to see that out of every nine bills there is an extra bill left over, making ten dollars for nine. Working as hard as he could, Mr. Hill could not have made more than from three to five dollars per day—rather a small sum for the risk he ran, as it was necessary to shove fifty of the mutilated dollars to make five.
