Attend to Your Feneeo.
As Spring approaches everybody
is desirous o( JSfJJ
around thedr niaking
them look as wel! at poßsib.e.--
Nothing will do itus batter anti at
the some rime as cheaply a»
tvash. Whitewash is one of the
most valuable article* iu the world
when properly applied. It w*
tents not only the decay o’ wood,
bnt conduce* greatly to the heal th
ine*!, of all buildings whether o!
wood or stone Outbuildings and
fences, when not painted, should lie
supplied once or twice a year with
a geed coat of whitewash, which
should be prepared in the following
war ;
Take a clean water tight 1 arret,
or other suitab'c cask, and put in
to it a hai; oushel ol lime. Stake
it by pouring water over if, boil'
ing hot, and in sufficient quantity
to cover it five inches deep, and
stir it briskly until thoroughly
slacked. W ben the slacking has
been effected, dissolve it iu wate ,
and add two pounds of sulphate ol
zinc, and one of common salt. —
These will cause the wash to har'
den, and prevent it cracking, which
gives an unseemly appearance to
the work, II desirable, a beautiful
cream color may be comrauu'eatcd
to the above wash, by adding th. ee
pounds of yellow ochre ; or n good
pearl orlead color, by the addition
of lamp vino or ivory black. For
fawn color, add four pounds of un
ber, Turkish or American, the lai
ter is the cheapest, one pound o
India red, and one pound common
lamp-black. This wash may be
applied with a common white wash
brush, and will be found much su
perior, both in appearance and dun
lability, to common white-wash.
Ripe Fox thape Jam.—Put
y our gra >es into a slew pan over
the fire until they are scalded, then
drain them well, and ru’o through
a aieve, and add a pound of sugar
to a pint oi pulp, and boil until
done, stirring constantly.
To Cook Rice.—Soak yonr rice
in salt water for seven hours, put
into fiesh water and boil ten min
utes, empty into a cullender before
tho tire to drain, when the griuns
will serperate, and you will find it
un excelont dish, with soup of any
kind.
Buckwheat Cakes.--Take two
quarts of w«--r. t. od warm, one
pint of brewei \s yeast, make a thin
batter, let them rise as far as they
will then add three'fourths of a
tablespuorfull of carbonate of soda
dissolved in a little water, then try
them as quick as you like.
Cocoanut Puddiug.-Take a quar
ter of a pound ol cocoa, quarter o r
a pouud of sugar, and three oucos
of butter, mix and beat them well,
take the whites of six eggs beaten
to a stiff froth, and add to the above
half a glass of wine and brandy
mixed, and a tablespoonful of rose*
water.
Sweet Fotata Custard. —Take
one pound potato masked and sifv
ted line, half a pound sojrar, a email
cup of cream and quarter pound of
butter, four egg* nutmeg and lem
on to suit the taste. If you have
no cream, put half pouud butter.—
This makes two large custards. —
Will someone send in a well tast->
ed recipe for s%vf>et potato pudding’
Potato Salad —Boil, till done,
six Irish potatoes and six white on
ions, separatel , prepare a sauce cf
two ounce* of buttei, pepper and
salt to suit the tas‘c, and add to a
pint ol vin6gar, slice a layer of on
ions and one ot potatoes alternate
ly into a deep dish, have tho sauce
very hot, and pour otot them.—
Very good to any oue who likes
onious.
To Preserve Eggs.—November is
tho month in which to purchase
eggs to preserve lot winter use.—
she best me'hod i* to pack them in
salt, with tbo small end of the egg
don uward. Put a thick layer ol
salt in a bnrrol. thau piace u layer
of eggs, cot ailowiuc them to touch
then a layer of salt until your have
sufficient for winter use. Prepared
in this way they will keen ;t
twelve month, and retain tbeir
freshuese.
Sweet Potatoes—A New Way.
Boil the potatoes and peel them,
slice them into au earthen dish’
pu ting on each layer a tablespoon
lul of sugar, grated nutmeg, and
some butter, until the dish is filled,
bake till brown, a little wine add
ed bnmoves the flavor. Th s dish
-;eq..-l to jelly as »n accompani
ment to itesh meats or fowls, and
it is good when cold for snppor.—
Try it and see.
Women'* Venerations.
If women have one weaknes-
I more marked than men, it i* tos
ward* ren ration. TnCy are born
j worshippers makers of sil v e r
I shrines for some divinity or oth
er, which of course, they always
; think fell straight down from heav
jen. TV u«t St*w towards their
,falling fa love with an ordinary
nortv is generally to dress him
out with all manner of real or fan*
cied superiority ; and having made
hitu up, they worship him. Now
a truly grout man, a mau really
grand and noble in ait and intellect
has this advantage with women,
that ho is an idol ready made to
baud ; a»d so that very painstaking
and ingenious sex have les* labor
in getting him up, and can be
ready to worship him on shorter
notice. In particular is this the
case where a sacred profession and
a moral supremacy are added to
the intellectual Just think of the
career of celebrated preachers and
divines iu all ages. Have they not
stood like the images “Nebuchad
nezzar the king set up, ’ and all
womankind, coquettes and flirts not
excepted, been reaay to fall down
and worship, cveu before sound of
cornet, flute, harp, saebut, Ac., Is
not the faithful Paula, with her
beautif-jJ face, prostate in rcvercuce
before poor old, loan, haggard, dys
ing St. Jerome, in the most splen
did painting of the world, an em>>
blem and a sign of woman’s exter
nal power of self sacrifice to what
s e deems noblest in man ? Does
not old Richard Baxter tell us,
with delightful single L arte (in ess.
how his wife fell in love with him
first, in spite his long pale face ;
and how she confessed, dear soul,
after many years of married life
that she had found hitn less bitter
and sour than she expected ? The
fact is, women arc buidened with
fealty, faith reverence, more than
they know what to lo w ith ; they
stand like a hedge of sweet peas,
throw out fluttering tendi'd ,ery
whero for something lug t ana
strong to climb up by, and when
they find it, be it ever so rough iu
tho bark, they catch upon it. ,/fnd
instances are not wanting of ttiosi
who have turned away from the
flattery of admires prostrate them
selves at the feet ol a genuine hero
who nover wooed them, except by
heroic deeds and the rhetoric ol
noble life.—The Minister Wooing
J jib Tbundle iinr. -Tne balm a
est siie.' we ever experience' was
when wo were nestling in the old
trundle bed with a curlv headed
brother just turned outo the pas
nut nest to make room for anew
customer- But trundle bed dreairts
were soon at an end, for when the
next customer came wo were
crowded out of the trundle bed to
make room for the next that wa?
turned out of the parent nest, and
so they kept alt’ eating for years
until wo wore fai y tuned out in

O ! where a the little heads,
that we have kissed a thousand

We are a I ways sad when we think

enfed Dec 18 1866. [See Scientific American
Vol 16 No 11 ]
It i» the only Cushion that possesses all the

the most elastic and most du vbie Cushion ever
offered to the billiard-playing public as is a
bandantly proven liythe great demand for it
sino -it* introduction. The peculiarity which
Gstingnishes the Cst-Gut Cushion and renders
it superior to all others, is tbe tightened cord
f oat-gut which overlies the face and edge of
he rubber and running the full length of the
Cushion, uhich prevents the bull from heeding
"’to the rubber and jumping so in the table
The addition of the c itgut cord alto adds much
