Frying as it should Be. Probably no anode of cooking is oftener used for meats than frying, and yet, judging from the way it is done, it is also one of the least under- stood, for, like the famous little maid- en— "When it is goon it is awfully good, And when it is bad it is horrid." ' Perhaps such failures arc due to habit. more than to ignorance, for she is indeed a courageous woman who, when driven from early morn- ing until late at night—as so many farmers' wives are compelled by the scarcity of help, to be—does not employ the easier because more fa- miliar methods of cooking, though she knows they are less desirable. There are two methods of frying, known in English as "dry frying" and "wet frying." Dry frying is the quicker, older and more eonnnon mode of frying food in a shallow pan in a small quantity of fat, usually only enough of the latter ta.preyent food from adhering to the pan ; and wet frying is the more modern way of immersing food its boiling fat. Aside from a few sorts of food, as bacon, liver, eggs and hashed vege- tables, wet frying is by far the more satisfactory mode, for,' contrary to the general opinion o' inexperienced cools ---that is persons who are ,un- skilled in this mode of cooking—the food is far less likely to be sodden and greasy: It is also the most economical mode, because the fat is. • more easily kept from burning, and if properly cared for, can be used continuously. However, food will not be sodden cooked by either Method, if good fat is used, and the food properly prepared and fried. Lard, which is oftener used than any other fat, and is generally supposed to be the best, is more greasy than any other, and should never be used alone when it can bo avoided. Cot; toline is bettor than larch, and' kitchen fat—that is, the, trimmings of beef, mutton, pork and veal, fat from, soups and boiled heats, chickens,&e., carefully rendered and clarified—is far better than either. But good fat and dry fat do not by, any meads insure success ; it Must be smoking hot, and the food to be fried must also be perfectly dry. • Wet food can by no possibility be given a dry, crisp surface. If egged and breaded, it should be allowed to 'lie 10 or 15 minutes before frying, but should be flied immediately after being dusted with flour,and if neither is done should be wiped dry, And yet fat should not really boil, for if brought to that degree of heat if is sure to burn. The common practice of testing it with a piece of bread, and con, siflering it hot enough when the bread browns quickly, is probably as good a goner al rule as can be given -if one remem= bers that the smaller'the artier to be fried the hotter the fat should he. A trying basket is very convenient, but In using it should sever be allowed to touoh the bottom of the, weasel. A. ftrk should never be stuck in the lean partof the meat, .or into croquettes, fritters, &c. The frying pan should be perfectly smooth for omelets. 1n dry frying, the pan should be oonstantly shaken or jerked to keep the meat from sticking. p'ish should be rubbed with salt and pepper before it is fried, and when it is done. should be drained in a hot strainer, or en tarn thiciclst•s K of warm manilla paper.

A travelling vendor Of patent medi- cines once put up for the night at a wayside inn, where some workmen were indulging in a friend] y "glass" before parting company for the night. On learning his profession, the work- mtrn agreed among themselves to have a little fun at the expense of' the quack. So one of them, who thought himself the wit of the company, got into • conversation with hien, and eventually asked lliiln what he pro- fessed to cure. Experience, sir, has taught me to cure any diseasc,answered the quack, looking his questioner full in the face. Then I should be much obliged .to you if you will cure rue of my com- plaint, went on the wit. Oh, yes, I will cure you. What is it you are suffering with?
