Spinach.
| The New York Post tells how they cook
spinach in France: After being washed
in several waters and carefully looked
over, put a quarter of a sieve to a gallon
of water and three ounces of salt; boil for
ten minutes till tender, drain on sieve,
press a little with the hands to extract
I part of the water; chop it fine, put it in
a stewpan with a quarter of a pound of
butter, a teaspoonful of salt, half a tea
spoonful of pepper; place over the fire
for a few minutes, adding a few drops of
hot broth with gravy; proceed as above
■with the addition of a tablespoonful of
flour and half a pint of strong gravy;
again proceed as above, and adding half
a pint of cream instead of gravy, also a
tablespoonful of sugar; lay three or four
slices of bread on the dish, sift the sugar
over, put it in the oven, salamander it
over, cut in various shapes, and serve
under and over the spinach; a little vari
ety can be made by surrounding the veg
etable with small diamonds of bread fried
in butter.
Drinks for t he Sick.
Orange Whey—The juice of one
orange to one pint of sweet milk. Heat
slowly until curds from strain, and cool.
Egg Lemonade—White of one egg,
one tablespoon pulverized sugar, juice of
one lemon, one goblet water. Beat
together.
Sago Milk—Three tablespoons sago
soaked in a cup of cold water one hour;
add three cups boiling milk; sweeten
and flavor to taste. Simmer slowly a
half hour. Eat warm.
Baked Milk—Put a half gallon of
milk in a jar, and tic it down with
writing paper. Let it stand in a moder
ate oven eight or ten hours. It will be
like cream, and is very nutritious.
Punch without Liquor—Take the
juice of six orangesand six lemons, add
ing sugar to suit the taste. Put to this
a quantity of pounded ice and some
sliced pine apple, pouring over it two
quarts of water. This is an agreeable
summer beverage for anybody, sick or
well.
Useful Hints.
Do not put salt into soup until you
have done skimming it, as salt will stop
the rising of the scum.
New milk, boiling hot, will take out
most fruit stains. Dip the articles five
or six times in hot milk.
Ammonia and whiting will clean nickel
plating nicely. Make into a paste and
apply; then rub until bright with another
cloth.
Butter should not be added to soups
and sauces until after they are taken from
the fire, as boiling makes it taste strong
and oily.
Much of the ordinary bother of wash
ing lamp chimneys on the inside can be
saved by using astick with a sponge tied
to the end.
After haling your hands in soapy
water, wet them in vinegar and spirits
of camphor; it kills the alkali and keeps
your hands soft.
Saturate the edges of carpets with a
strong solution of alum water to destroy
moths: if an unpainted floor, wash the
floor with it before putting down the
carpet. Do the same to shelves w here
black ants appear.
Oil stains on carpets, if action is taken
at once upon the oil being spilled, may
be removed by scattering corn meal upon
them. Also the application of a hot iron
through a heavy sheet of blotting paper
will have a like effect.
Grass stains are troublesome to re
move, but soft soap and soda is usually
effectual. After having wet the stained
parts, rub in the soap and as much bak
ing soda as will adhere; let this stand
half an hour and wash in the usual man
ner. Whiting is also used with soft soap
for the same purpose.
To keep hinges in order, big or little,
and prevent the disagreeable creaking,
don’t oil them. The oil is apt to soil the
hands, the garments and the carpet, and
the remedy is sometimes “worse than the
: disease.” Rub the hinge that creaks or
the latch that will not slide with a soft
■ lead pencil. The application works like
magic.
To Quench Thirst.
A North Side physician states that ice
Water does not quench thirst but in
creases it. “I remember a little story,”
said he, “which, 1 think, might do much
good if published during this hot weather,
that I heard from an old sailor. He said
that he and six shipwrecked companions
lived four days on three pints of water,
and were not a bit thirsty. When L
asked him to explain, he said that instead
of gulping the water down, they each
took a teaspoonful and gurgled it well in
their mouths. If any one will try the
experiment, no matter how thirsty he is,
by thoroughly rinsing his mouth with
not over a tablespoon of water, he will
find that it will quench his thirst as ef
fectually as a quart of water hastily
swallowed, and will not hurt him any. I
believe that fully one-third of the deaths
during the heated season are, if the truth
were known, directly or indirectly due
to heavy drinking of ice water.”—Pitts
burg Chronicle Telegraph.
A Setting Hen.
The following is from a poultry publi
cation: “Ever hear about our little red
.* hen? Well, sir, she was on the set for
keeps. Couldn’t keep her off. Old door
knobs, soda bottles, lamp chimneys,
match safes, anything was good enough
for her. Finally 1 put her on three mud
turtles, and I hope to die if she didn't
hatch out allligutors! One of 'em eat
her up, and when we opened him, there
bwaa the hen settin* on his back teeth,
*nd they'd swelled up so they'd choked
him to death.”
A Long Sleep.
The fortnight’s sleep of the French
commercial traveller, Chaffat, which
created such a sensation in London, Eng
and, last spring, has been completely
eclipsed by a Russian sailor at the Wal
ton workhouse, near Liverpool. Win
stoffsky was brought to the workhouse
in a sleepy condition, and at once went
off into a pleasant doze, which lasted
thiee weeks, when he woke up apparently
much refreshed. On awakening, Win
stoffsky was quite convinced that he had
only taken his usual night’s rest. He had
been fed regularly, and his general con
' dition of health was excellent.
More than 2,000,000 glass eyes arc
made every year in Germany and Switzer
land, and one French house manufac
tures 300,000 of them annually. The
pupil is made of colored glass, and
sometimes red lines are painted on the
inner surface to simulate veins. The
largest number of these eyes are bought
by laborers who arc exposed to fire, and I
are consequently liable to lose an eye.

So impetuous youth is often given to folly

bad dreams occur, premature old age seems
setting in, ruiu is in the track. In confidence,
you can, and should write to Dr. R. V. Pierce,
of Buffalo, N. Y., the. author of a treatise for
the benefit of that class of patients, and de
scribe your symptoms and sufferings. He can

parti ulars by mail.
