When that tired feeling, the first rheu matic pain, the first warnings of impure blood are manifest, take Hood's Sarsapa rilla and you will rescue your health and probably save a serious sickness, <Be sure to get Hoocfs, because Monkeys as Bait for Crocodiles. Recently a subscriber to the British Fishing Gazette wrote to that publica tion for information as to the best method of fishing for crocodiles. In the last issue another subscriber gives to him this reply: "With regard to catching crocodiles, I shall be glad to observe whether any ohe replies sat isfactorily to Mr. Firmin’s query. I tried my hand when I was last in Cey lon to catch some crocodiles that bad taken some coolie women, and I will state my method. I shot a large monkey (the silver wandroo), and then I sewed up a triangle shark hook that I had with me in the stomach of the monkey, passing the chain and swivel out of the throat. I then fast ened to the chain a strong manila rope, which I attached to a springy tree. I am bound to add that every morning, to my disgust, I found my monkey gone, but no crocodile. When one considers the toughness of a mon key’s skin the result was to me always Incomprehensible. Perhaps we may learn of some infallible dodge, which I shall be glad to try when next I go out to the East.” Insanity tn England.

Dr. H H. GREEN’S SONS. Box B. Atlanta. Ga FOR THE HOUSEWIVES. Delicious Tea. If one wishes to have delicious tea, it should be made in an earthen tea pot in which boiling water has stood for some time. When the pot has be come thoroughly heated, the water should be poured off and in its place should be put one teaspoonful of tea to each half pint of water to be used. Add water that has reached the boil ing point, and set the teapot on the back of tine stove for five minutes. Some send it directly to the table and cover with a cosey for ten or twelve minutes. The Flavor of Meats. After an experience of several years with all sorts of meats I am come to the conclusion that the flavor is de rived from the bone and not from the flesh. For example: Cut from a young chicken that part of the breast covering the wish-bone; remove the bone and broil with butler, adding a few strips of bacon. Serve to your guest as “ruffed grouse,” or what we indiscriminately call partridge, and he will think you have returned from the woods after a successful week with live game. In another dish serve a breast cooked with the wish-bone in, and he will say “chicken.” A beef steak broiled with the bone in has an entirely different taste from one broiled with the bone out. Try it Beyond doubt everything is bred in the bone. What makes the shad so delicious? The bone.—Victor Smith, in New York Press. Farmer’s Fruit Cake. To make a farmer’s fruit cake, chop fine half a pint of dried apples; cover with half a pint of cold water and let them soak over night. The next morning add a cupful of golden syrup; simmer gently for one hour. Stand aside to cool. Beat half cupful butter to a cream; add one cupful of granulated sugar. Dissolve a teaspoonful of soda in two tablespoonfuls of water and add it to half a cupful of buttermilk or sour milk; add this to ttfb batter; add two teaspoonfuls of cinnamon, half a teaspoonful of cloves and one egg well beaten. Sift two cupfuls of flour; add a little flour, a little of the dried apple mixture and a little more flour until you have the whole well mixed. The batter must be the thick ness of ordinary cake batter. Pour this into a well-greased cake pan and bake in a moderate oven for one hour. —Mrs. S. T. Borer, in the Ladies’ Home Journal. How to Serve Poached Eggs. Break an egg carefully into a coffeo cup, and sprinkle it lightly with salt and pepper. Have ready a small stew pan containing some boiling beef tea which has been nicely seasoned. Care fully slip the egg into the pan and poach it in the usual way. When it is done place it on a rather thick round of buttered toast. Thicken a small quantity of beef tea quickly with a little corn flour, and pour it over the egg. Another way of serving a poached egg is as follows: Break a new-laid egg into a buttered teacup, season it with salt and pepper, and place the cup in a stewpan containing sufficient boiling water to reach rather more than half-way up the cup. As soon as the egg is set, turn it carefully onto a piece of hot buttered toast. While the egg is cooking boil a small quan tity of cream in a saucepan, season it with a little celery, salt and pepper, and add a teaspoonful of chopped parsley to it; pour the cream over the egg and serve at once. A small hot water plate, with a cover, should be used for all hot dishes sent to the in valid’s room, and remember that the cover should be heated as well as the plate. Household Hints. Keep two gridirons in the kitchen, one for meat and one for fish. All meat should be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth before cooking. Windows should never be cleaned when the sun is shining on them. Sand paper will whiten ivory han dled knives which have become yel low. Poultry should never be cooked un til twelve or fourteen hours after being killed. When flannel underclothing irritates the skin do Lot dis ard flannel, but wear a soft muslin garment next the skin. There is nothing that so promptly cuts short congestion of the lungs, sore throat, rheumatism as hot water, when applied promptly and thorough !y. Vegetables of any kind .should not be boiled after they are once well done. Further cooking destroys then flavor and makes them watery and in sipid. If tea leaves are to be used to col lect the dust in sweeping, they should be put in a colander, well washed with cold water, squeezed dry and spread on the carpet only just before begin ning to sweep. Those who drink hot water every morning will find it more palatable if a small piece of orange peel is added. The fresh peel is preferable, but when that is not available the dried answers the purpose almost as well. In laundering colored shirt waists or negligee shirts use lukewarm water with plenty of salt in it and a moder ate application of some pure white soap. Dry wrong side out in the shade and remove from the line as soon as dried. New rice is much inferior in quality to old, and is liable to produce indi gestion and rheumatism. It should not be eaten for at least six months niter it Las been gathered. Jhe seeds a:e then dry and hard, and have the yellowish tinge, while new rictj is per* leetly white. Cycling in France. The cycle tax in France serves one useful purpose—that of illustrating the growth of the pastime in that country. So great has been the rise of automo bilism in France that some diminution might have been expected in thd Frenchman’s enthusiasm for the cycle. The actual figures, however, speak em phatically to the contrary effect. In 1894, the first year of taxation, the number of machines was 203,306; in 1895 it was 256,084; in 1896, 329,816, and in 1897, 408,869. The figures for last year, however, have just been pub lished and show a total of 483,414, or nearly half a million. It may con fidently be expected, however, that the figures for the present year will great ly exceed even this total, for not only is the pastime showing no signs of diminution, but regulations Introduced this year with respect to the carrying of a plaque will Insure a more wide spread payment of the imperial tax, which many riders have previously found it possible to evade. Knew the Minister's Talent. Willie had swallowed a penny and his mother was in a state of alarm. "Helen,” she called to her sister in the next room, "send for a doctor; Willie has swallowed a penny.” The terrified and frightened boy looked up implor ingly. "No, mamma,” he interposed, "send for the minister.” “The minis ter?” asked his mother, incredulously. "Did you say the minister?” “Yes; because papa says our minister cam get money out of anybody.” “Three years ago I was badly afflict ed with Eczema, and used Tetterine with the most gratifying result.
