The Southern Farmer.
Toplrw for (tie llouichchl.
To Wash Silk Stockings.—One
tablespoonful of Union juice to a quart
of tepid water; wash thoroughly, using
no soap; dry quickly in the thade; the
flesh tint will l>e preserved.
Raised Biscuit.—Take some light
bread-dough sufficient for two square
tins of biscuit, mold in four ounces of
butter, and let it rise again, and when
light, pick up small bunches of dough
and drop on buttered tins; let it rise a
few minutes, then bake slowly.
Chili Sauce.—Eighteen large, ripe
tomatoes, three green tomatoes, two
small onions, one cup of sugar, two and
one-half cups of vinegar, two-thirds of a
cup of all kinds of spices, four teaspoon
fuls of salt. Boil one hour.
Ham Cake,—A capital way of dis
posing of the remains of a ham. and
making an excellent dish for breakfast:
Take a pound and a half of ham, fat
and lean together —put it into a mortar
and pound it, or pass it through a saus
age-machine—boil a large slice of bread
in a half-pint of milk, and beat it and
the ham well together— add an egg beat
en up. Put the whole into a mold, and
bake a rich brown.
White Soup.--This white vegetable
soup will be found most excellent: Take
four or five good turnips, two heads of
celery, four fine leeks, and w ash them
and slice them down; then put them into
a stew-pan with a piece of butter and a
knuckle of liam; moisten with a auart
of stock, and let them stew gently till
tender; then add a pint of milk and
crumbs of bread, give all a good boil
up, strain, and send to the table very
hot.
Nursery Powder.— Take one ounce
of pulverized hemlock-bark, one ounce
of magnesia, and one ounce of laundry
starch; pulverize finely by laying upon
a platter and grinding with a knife. Sift
through a hair-sieve and put into a tight
box, and you have the same article which
costs you, if prepared by chemists, a
dollar and a quarter per box. Any one
can make a puff of swan’s down or
scraped linen lint, if they think it
better than a pinch sifted from between
the thumb and finger.
Omelette Soffle.— Separate 6 eggs,
and beat them light; having added to
the yolks two tablespoonfuls of pulver
ized sugar and part of a grated nutmeg;
iust before cooking stir in the whites and
the yolks together; have on the fire a
pan with a tablespoonful of lard, when
boiling hot pour in the omelette. Keep
lifting the eggs gently with a knife—al
lowing the top to run underneath—until
done; then slip the knife under one side
and fold the omelette; turn out on a warm
dish, sprinkle with 3Ugar and serve at
ouce. t „
Autumn Leaves for Lamp Shades
—Lamp shades made of autumn leaves
are very beautiful. To make them, cut
the shade in stiff white paper, when the
leaves which have been previously dried
and pressed, are arranged on it in a
wreath, and fastened down by gum. It
is then covered with a very coarse net,
and the edges bound with gilt or colored
paper. The effect of the light shining
through the shade is exceedingly pretty;
and it is one of the cheap decorations
which all persons possessed of a little
taste and ordinary skillful fingers make
for themselves.
Baled Calf’s Head. —A calf’s head,
a good one, will cost forty cents, and
will last two days. Boil the head until
you can pick out all the bones, and
mind you keep the water the head is
boiled in; take your pieces and lay them
in a dish, having cut them small; use
some salt, pepper, a little parselv, a grate
of nutmeg, a small piece of butter, and
some dry bread-crumbs, say a teacupful
of the latter; moisten it all with some of
the water the head lias been boiled in;
put in a baking-dish, and let it bake half
an hour. When we cay afford it, we take
the yolks of two eggs and make a sauce
with the boiled liquor; we make soup of
the rest of the liquor.
Usefulness of Borax.— Borax water
moderately used and afterwards followed
by frequent brushings, makes the liair
beautifully roft and glossy, and does not
injure it in the least. A little borax
added to starch will impart a fine gloss
to linen when ironed, which is considered
by many so desirable. Borax is very
much to be prefened to soda as aid to
the softening of water for washing pur
poses, making the clothes very clean and
white, while being harmless to the fabric
and hands. It is a very useful addition
to the household economy in many ways,
and will keep perfectly sweet in solution
for a long time.
Meat Scallop. —Take pieces of cold
beefsteak or roast veal; chop them very
fine. Blitter a pudding dish, put a layer
of meat then a layer of crackers, season
with salt, pepper, pieces of bu her and
moiston well with milk; then put in an
other layer of meat as before, and over
the whole spread a thick layer of pulver
ized crackers, and moisten with an egg
beaten in aeup of milk, or more, accord
ing to the size of the dish; scatter pieces
of butter over the top and bake three
quarters of an hour or an hour. This is
a nice dish if made moist enough.
Soft Soap. —Twenty pounds of
pure grease to fourteen pounds
of potash will make a cleg,n fish-barrel
full: the potash can be procured at any
drug store; dissolve it in water in a brass
kettle over the lire ; put the grease in the
barrel; first pour the solution of potash
over the grease, and stir it with a stick;
let it stand twenty-four hours, then pour
a pail of cold wafer in the barrel, and
stir it thoroughly; let it stand twelve
hours, and as it thickens, add a pail of
cold water and stir again, and add water
every twelve hours, and stir until the
barrel is full. In cold weather we use
warm water. Be particular to have the
barrel tight, as lye will leak through
where water will not. A barrel will not
answer more than twice, as the lye de
etroys it.
He is Called a Gentleman.
[Eclipsed Exchange.]
Look at that young man, arrayed in
faultless costume and polished boots of
the latest style. He handles his deli
cate cane with such consumate skill,
that it seems to be a part of him. See
him lift his hat to that lady! It is done
with the perfection of grace. Listen to
his modulated tones, as he passes the
conversational salutation, and the ring
of his laughter, subdued to the exact
melody, 'fhe community calls him a
gentleman. He is a welcome habitue of
our best society—the centre of a select
circle. To his side purest and
fairest of our girls, whom his attentions
delight. Mothers and daughters alike
cultivate him, and anxious hearts whis
per that he is a good match! Last night
that gentleman, (?) flushed in face, with
bleared eyes, staggering under beastly
drunkenness, concluded his revels in a
den of imfamy, dawdling to the caresses
of the most depraved! The echo yet lin
gers in the ribald jest, but society gives
him letters of credit as a gentleman. It
is no exceptional act, nor secret, done in
fear and trembling. It is of frequent
occurrence, and the chance is that be
fore he left liis lady acquaintance five
minutes he was found telling a friend of
liis bawdy adventures, to the clinking of
glasses over a saloon counter, in the un
noticed and uncared-for presence of
others. Society sees these things—knows
them full well—but instead of eyes start
ing with horror, they settle intoan|in
dolcnt wink at the peccadilloes. Texts
may be learned expounded from the pul-
Eits, and moralists, thunder in platitudes,
ut so long as society welcomes to its
hospital avenue gentlemen such as we
have described, and others of a similar
character, domestic sorrows and social
catastrophes must be regarded as natural
results and not mourned as undeserved
afflictions
Useless Skill.
Some months ago a couple of our fast
and reckless .young men tried to make a
short turn of the corner of Cherry and
St. Clair street while the horse was
going at a rapid gait. The buggy was
upset and the young men thrown out
with great violence on the sidewalk.
One of them remained motionless. A
crowd collected, and one of our well
known Gerrnan phvsieians wassummoned
to attend him. The doctor worked with
him patiently for some minutes when a
bystander exclaimed in an agony of im
patiene: “Oh, doctor, doctor, can’t
you bring him to?” “ Oh, yah,” said
the doctor, phlegmatically, as he stopped
to wipe his heated forhead. “ Yah, I
can pring him to, but vat isde use? He
man’s neck it is proke.”
The Granger’s Prize Apple.
It was at a recen t agricultural fair,
and when the influential farmer was pre
sented with the “prize apple” by the
owner (a politician running for office) he
immediately bit the fruit in two, and,
munching hard on the piece in his
mouth, camly observed:
“ I thank ye fur this bootiful present;
I shell take it with me whurever I go!”
The owner stopped passing around
**' prize apples ” right there.
