FOR THE HOUSEWIFE. ^ ■ CLEANING WINDOWS. - Two servauti employed in adjoining houses were talking recently, says an exchange, about their methods of clean¬ ing windows. The one whose win¬ dows always looked the brightest said she selected a dull day for the work, or a day when the sun was not shining on them, because wheu the suu shines it causes them to be dry-streaked, no matter how much one rubs. The painter’s brush is the best article for this purpose, then wash all the wood¬ work before the glass is touched. To t cleanse the glare, simply use warm water diluted with ammonia; don’t use soap. A small stick will get the dust out of the corners, then wipe dry with a piece of cloth—do not use linen, as the lint sticks to the glass. The best way to polish is with tissue paper or newspaper. To clean windows in this way takes much less time than when soap is used .—Mechanical New. TO COOK ONIONS. There are many ways of preparing onions, and perhaps there Is none supe¬ rior to “plain boiled.” If the water is changed ones or twice while cooking, they will be more delicate, and they must be thoroughly tender all through. Drain all water from them and season with salt, pepper and ’ plenty of sweet butter. As a change, a cream sauce may be poured over them just before serving, but one would tire of this method if repeated too often. After being boiled until tender, they may be put in a buttered baking dish, sprin¬ kled with pepper, salt, a teaspoonful of butter in the centre of each onion, covered with bread crumbs and baked slowly one hour. They may then be served plain or with cream sauce. The large Spanish onions are particularly nice for slicing raw, and if served with a little oil and vinegar, make a good salad. Onions are an in¬ dispensable seasoning for most soups, and in many cases if they are sliced and fried brown in butter, before adding them to the soup stock, the flavor is greatly improved. A potato salad would be very tame indeed without a slight flavor, and there is no dou bt that in time this valuable vegetable, so rich in nitrogenous food, will take a higher rank than is at present accorded to it upon our tables. But one word of ad - vice, don’t fry it SICK-ROOM slippers. These are intonded for tho use of those who are nursing or watching the sick, 'but they will be found to give great comfort to anyone who has tired or lame feet. Rip the soles from a pair of old slip¬ pers, knock the heels off and cover the soles on both sides with thick woolen cloth. Excellent material for this, as well as for the uppers, may be found in the skirts of old coats. With tho old slippers for a guide, cut a paper pattern of the uppers; or better still, have a pattern of the right size cut for you by a shoemaker. The pat¬ tern will be in two pieces, the vamp and the quarter pattern. Cut two cloth pieces by the vamp pattern and four by the quarter pattern, taking care to have two of the latter right side out and two wrong side cut. From dark silesia cut linings to all those pieces. £iose and press the seams of the cloth pieces, then the lin¬ ings; then baste the two smoothly to¬ gether—seams inside—and bind the upper edge with galloon. Now slip the heel stiffening (saved from the old slippers) up between the lining and the outside, and catch it there with two or three basting stitches. Then sew upper and sole together, holding both wrong side out, and your slipper is finished. Turn it and put it on; and if your feet are lame or tired you will not be in a burry to take it off. BECIPES. Beef Sausage—Take two-thirds beef to one-third pork, chop fine and season with herbs to the taste. Make into •mall cakes and fry brown. Sweet Sauce for Puddings—One tableapoonful of butter, two of sugar, two of flour; season with nutmeg; mix well and pour over it boiling water until as thick as gravy. Oyster Fritters—Make a thick batter of milk, eggs and flour, with some baking-powder worked in it; dip each oyster in the batter and fry brown in hot butter and lard—half and half. Hot Slaw—Molt in your frying pan a piece of butter the size of au egg. Put in your cabbage and add a little water, salt and pepper. Cover closely and cook until quite tender, then add half a cup of vinegar. Simple Dessert—Put eight crackers Into a doep dish and pour on enough boiling water to cover, Let them stand till soaked; then grate over them nutmeg and white sugar, with sweet cream enough to make a nice cream.
