URM, DARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD.
Or. Baker, Secretary of the Michigan state
tibard of health, says / **T her** has come uu-
der my notice for several years, bnt more
particularly daring the two Inst years, a kind
of rhumatio ooiidiuou or the walls of the
chest The patient coin plums of a dull
heavy pain iu the chest nulls The disease
in a large majority of cases, is confined to
the left aide. The pain is circumscribed,
and limited to a space of not more thon'two
inches in diameter, Just below and a little to
the left of the left nipple. At times the' pain
la very severe, and always constant, day uud
night, when the patient is qwake. Ihuvr
investigated the disease to some extent, and
find it to be more common among tobacco
users, especially those who use the weed to
excess. Patients suffering from this com-
plaint invariably come to their physioiaus
with the belief that they have heart trouble.
• The Value of Condiments*
By condiments we mean substances like
•agar, spices, vinegar and ethers that ore
imployed to Impart flavor and piquancy to
tha staple foods. They are usually regarded
aa non*essential, and some writers on diet
etics have gone so for as »to condemn their
use, unless iu rare instances aud in the moFt
inflnltssmal proportions. Like all good
things they are liable to be abused, but when
properly used they *re valuable elements in
OUt dally food. Professor Volt of Munich,
than whom there is no higher authority on
such « subject, considers that their impor
tance has run been sufficiently recognized. Ii
is not enough tont food should contain' nli<
mentary principles in proper quantities, to
tender it really nutntiotis there must also be
a supply of condiments. These have been
compared to oil in a machine, which neither*
makes good tha waste of material nor sup
plies motive poster, yet causes it to work
belter; they tender cssentiu! service in the
processes of the nutrition though tuey are
hot of themselves able to prevent the waste
of any part of the body. "A dietary deprived
of condiments, a mixture of ntimentary prin
ciples without taste or stoell, is unendurable
and causeth nausea and vomiting.'* It is not
until coudiments are added to aliment that
it really becomes food. Extreme hunger
may euablfl us to dispense with them, os it
umy compel us to devour what at other times
would be oisgnsting, but under ordinary cii-
cnnistances they ure nu essential part of our
diet.
Coudiuicnts have au important influence
upon the processes of digestlnu and nutri-
tinu. The inero sight or thought of a savory
dish “mikes the mouth water,"—that, is, it
makes the salivary glands pt.ur out their
secretion eopioi sly, which iH an important
stage in digestion, especially for certrin ar
ticles of food. Experiments made upon dog*
show that a similar efteet is prml’.ced upon
the gostio secretion, and thus the work of
» dlgsstiou ts further promoted, The loss of
the sense ot taste would be not merely a loss
of eiijriUMit, but a positive enjoyment to
the digestive system, The very smell of
food may do n-. good, just as certain odors
will rotor a person who bus fainted. It dors
ii"t lollow because e.n^imeuts are usethi,
that we may wit have too much of them; on
the contrary, tuoir best effect depends upon
their beiug used in moderation. The more
decided the flavor of any article of lood, the
suouer dots it pull upon the appetite. It is
cue ot the peculiar merits o! French cookery
that flavors are so delicately blended; no one
is specially prominent, and yet by their differ
ent combinations a wonderful variety of ap
petizing effects is produced. We Yankees,
like the English, are apt to nse condiments
iu a coarse, reckless way, and thus miss their
tiuel und more exquisite effects, besides losing
much of the benefit that might lie derived
trout them. By a nicer care in their employ
ment, the plainest and simplest diet might
be made at once more delicious and more di
gestible.— Boslon Journal of Chemistry
A Cheap Hafo^jap.— Many housekeepers
fn the country know how difficult it is to ob-
tam a good article of bar soap. The yellow
soup sold at stores cut* soft as cheese, and
rubs away as easily, and uslcss the housewife
orders a box of soap at n time pats it ap in
the attic or some dry place, the yearly record
• will show a good sum paid out for soap pur-
ehashed by tLe bar. The following receipt
wilt prove a desirable item of economy*.
Four large barse of yellow soap.* two pounds
, of sil-Hoda; time ounces of boaax; one ounce
of Mqnid ammonia. Shave the soap in thin
slices, put it into eight quarts of soft water
(rain water is the best). When the soap is
nearly dissolved, add the borax and sal-soda;
stir till all is mtUed. - Four into a large tnb
or shallow pan; when nearly cool add the
ammonia slowly, mixing it well. Let it
stand a day or two then cut into
bans and dry it in a warm place. No better
soap can be made to wash white clothes cali
coes, and flannels, and is exeelient for house
hold purposes. It costs three cents per
pound and is made in less than half an hr ur.
This receipt bos been sold for five dollars,
and will be of service to every family.
