Pork in Casserole. ---A casserole is a ep earthen dish with clbse-fitting ver. It is very useful for the busy usewife, as food eooked in it requires attention 'while cooking, and has a licious flavor, as none of the juices e lost. Cut 3 lbs pork in small (lees. Put them into a miseerole with large onions sliced and place on top • the stove to brown; add a quart of ter, cover closely and simmer in a ol oven or on top of stove for three urs.

Chop enough parsley to make a teaspoonful, add to the peas with a little grated nutmeg. • Beat up well, sift in half a pint ot flour and pour into a pudding bag. The same bag used before will, do if wen washed. Tie it up tightly, drop into the pork water again and boil anther hour. RemoYe, let drain in the colander a few minutes, when turn- out onto a dish. Serve with the pork, and any preferred sauce; mint sauce is good to serVe with pork, and a tomato sauce is always good. In feet, it is a na- tural hygienic instinct which ordains a tart fruit or vegetable to be eaten with pork. The Germans, who are noted for their freedom from skin dis- eases, add sour fruit sauces to inordi- nately fat meats. TO KEEP CUT FLOWERS. It is often hard to get flowers; but when obtained it is still more diffi- cult to keep them in a eatisfactory con- dition, To arrange tbem tastefully and effectively requires time and thought. The imtnedia.to reLuoval of one fadbag flower will often preserve the others. • Every morning flowers are taken from the vases, and, beginning with the stems, refreshed by a bath of pure water -two or three minutes being long enough for the immersion-taen taken out and sprinkled lightly with the hand. The water should be changed, every day, and the water used for Sprinkling must be fresh and pure. Sunshine resting on cut flowers, is very injurious, and the room in which they are kept should be cold rather than wartn. Gas saps the very life .of delicate blossoms, and a bell -glass plac- ed over them at night will be found an excellent protector, But m.easures for the preservation of flowers should be taken before they reach the house. There is a great dif- ference in their lasting powers; but the raost fragile ones may be, kept in excellent condition for forty-eight hours, if gathered before the sun can stare them out of countenance and placed. at once in tepid water. Those, who show any signs of drooping should be dipped head foremost in cold water and gently shaken Flowers that have travelled a long dista,nce are speedily - revived by- this treatment. Nasturtiums, heliotrope, and, above all, roses, should be gathered at nights if possible. Their stems, and those of all flowers, kept in water, should be cut daily. The wistaria is a beautiful but per- ishable bloesom that seems to pine away in disgust when transferred to the house; but the Ja-panese have conquered this propensity by the most heroic treatment. They burn the out stem of the graceful droOper, and then immerse it in spirits. Other „woody plants, like hydrangea, branches of fruit. blossoms, etc., can be treated in the same way. In sending flowers away, long narrow boxes are more desirable than round ones, and square ones are between the two in keeping-nowers. Tin is the best material, and wood the next best; yet stout pasteboard often delivers its per- ishable contents in good condition. Es- pecially in the case of pasteboard is a stout, rough, brown paper lining, over top and al 1, a desirabl e addition, after wetting it thoroughly in cold water. The flowers must then be carefully etrranged in layers, each layer repos- ing on its own bed of fresh green ferns made very moist. Slender sticks should be wedged in under the fern bed e to keep thene in place, and when ferns are not available, cotton batting arranged in the actm,e way -will make a good substitute. Strong -scented ones shut up in close quarters with those of more delicate perfume will almost invariably destroy the dainty charm of the latter. A SIMPLE RECIPE. Every ovviter of highly polished na- tural -woods, and each piano owner knows what an annoyance the "blue shade" is. Fortunate are they if in a weak mo- ment or despair they have not resort- ed to some sticky mixture to remove the tinge. And nbw "a piano man" says, "Use only tepid water and soft cloth, rub hard, and dry well with a chamois skin." How simple. For white spots on yarnished furniture, or to conceal scratches apply kerosene oil with a rag. if the spot is ancient or the bruises cleep rub it once a day, for two or three days. We never knew the third ap- plication to fail. , Simplest ways are often the best ways, and surely it is so as re- gards bine mold and white spote.

At the end of two weeles it will he ready to smoke. Excess of smoke to not generally relished, In an ordinary smoke house two weeks will impart a pleasant flavor. The following method of smoking beef and, hams is in favor with many. Smoke a barrel by inverting it eight or ten days oyer a kettle containing a smoldering fire. }Keep water on tile head of the barrel, and occasionally throw a pailful on the outside to pre- vent shrinking. In this barrel paok the, meat and peur over brine to cover, in the preportion of 2 gal. water, 4 Ib. salt, a quart of molasees or 8 lb. sugar and. 2 oz. saltpeter. Boil, skim ansi do not use until cold. In ten daya or two weeks, according to the degree of saltuess desired, take out the meat; soak 12 hours lit cold water to prevent a crest forming on the outside, drain thoroughly- and hang to dry. It may be near a fire for ten days, and should then be hung, to finish drying in the pantry or in a lower tempera - When smoking meat, be sure to have smoke, but as little heat as possible. Corncebs, green hieleory or maple chips and. wood are used. • Some recommend, placing hams, while wet from the brine, in a tub of bran or hard -wood sawdust; this, it is said, prevents evaporation of the juices at the meat during the process of snaoking. If a good. "smudge" is kept up constantly, a month suffices to smoke an average -sized ham; beef being smaller requires less time. The smoke flavor desired must govern the time. Hams shrink in smoking about 10 per cent. In the absence pf a smoke -house, we have found the following a convenient arrangement Dig a trench about three feet long and six or more inches wide. Cover with boards and brick, then with earth, at one end dig a hole two or more feet deepand large enough to hold an iron. kettle. Remove one head. from a light barrel, fasten an inch cleat to the. inside of the other end, and drive nails in the side of it from which to suspend the meat. Place the barrel over one end. of the trench, and cover with several thick- nesses of old. carpetiug ;.set kettle in place at the other end,' end build a smoldering fire of green chips or saw— dust. For a large ham, confine the smoke about 40 hours. . If one has beef to smoke nails may be driven round the head of a tight barrel. upon which to hang the meat. Place the barrel over a smouldering fire and cover with carpet or blanket, These methods may be deemed quite primitive, but we know from experi- ence that they are, effective. To keep dried beef -when well dried, wipe with a damp cloth; then rub every part of the surface with powdered borax, using it mare freely iit seams and crevices. Store in flour sacks and tie closely. Repeat the borax application several times during the seaeon. , To, keep a .bern a year or longer, cut in slines, rertIOVe the rind axid the rough, discolored .edges, pack solidly in' jars, and cover with. lard an inch in depth. When any ie taken from the jar, immediately warm the lard, strain and returnto the jar. Always keep lard an inch deep over the top of the meat, and never leave the meat exposed to the air longer than is nec- essary, THE, VALUE OF EARLY CUT HAY. Save the best early cut hay and oth- er roughage until the latter part of winter and early spring. All practi- cal feeders have observed that farm animals are less likely to make satis- factory gains in the spring months than at any other time of the year. Often they lose flesh unless the very best of care is given. They refute to eat the usual amount of forage unless it' is early cut and of the very hest quality. However, 1 have found that by saving the earliest cut hay until the last, the stook will continue to consume the usual amount of food with a relish andalso continue to make sat- isfactory gains. With mach cows the flow will not decrease, as so often hap- pens in spring before tlie cows can be turned out on good pasture. Then, too, by feeding the earliest cut hay lamt, the system of the anima1 will be ia a better condition for mak- hag satisfactory gains immediately af- ter being turned out on fresh pastures 10 epring. Very early out fociders have a tendency to relax the bowels; consequently the *change front, dry fodder to fresh pastures will not be a radical change in feed. In the early part of the winter they are 10 abet- ter condition for coasuraing the late cut by and fodder, after being taken off the pasture, where their rations have often been made up of over -ripe and partly dried off grasses. • Every practical feeder has 'long ago learned the advantage of securing all fodder as early as nossible after it has gained the requited seage of growth, but where is large amount is to bes put up, eonte of it will of necessity beeome riper than is desirable.

Are we to thank la grippe Lor the latest fad which swell women have tak- en up? 'Whether that prevalent dis- ease is responsible or not, the fact re- mains, that the fashionable woroan of to -day has taken to "snuff." Snuff boxes are a dainty and as yet novel adjunct for one's dressing table and chatelaine, and it is not to be won- dered at thatthis has proved an in- ducement to the habit. The very finest snuff is used, and it is said that the manner in which some of our smart women have learned to use it is very taking indeed, though to many even this is hardly a compensation for the habit as a habit. Only the ultra smart women have taken to th.e snuff habit, as they did to that of cigarette smoking. It does not necessarily follow that those of more conservative taste will adopt the habit. Leisure, lucre and laxity of stand- ard to an unlimited degree are needed before one can become converte,3. eith- er to snuff taking or cigarette smok- ing. A striking thing about the pres- ent revival is that it appears to be con- fined to women. AST MA For Infants and Cb.ildren.

Ireland there are 32,121 who can express themselves only in the Irish tongue. Of course, these are mostly old people, and English is gradually dislodging the native languages of Ireland and Wales. It is a curious circumstance that while in Wales few- er persons speak' both Bnglish and. Welsh than Welsh only.

Only a few weeks ago a man jumped from London Bridge into the river, and though he was picked out of the water quite dead the doctor de- clared that ha was not drowned, but died froni heart disease, and the jury' returned, a verdict to that effect. Though the fact went alinost unno- ticed at the time, Baron Rothschild ex- pired on his birthday, hardly an hour after reading a batch of congratula- tory epistles wishing him " many hap- py returns," and the late Mr. T. B. Potter, founder of the Cobden Club, died on the very same day of the year and in the same hour as his wife, whom he survived. twelve years. When the Fashoda crists WES at its height, IWO Congregational ministers, bearing the unusual names France and French, died in the same week. A. curious fact leaked out at a recent inquest in Bermondsey. 'rhe victims were two babies, who heel been acei- dently suffocated, and the evidence showed that all the parents retired to reel: in the same hour, on the same morning, and that both mothers found their children deed at the same time. The superstitious will find food for reflection in the fate of a passenger by the unfortunate ship Mohegan, which was recently wrecked on the. Cornish coast. The passenger wrote just /?efore the departure of the ves- sel: there is any ill -luck. ' ABOUT' THE al'UMBER 13. I ought to get it, for I have taken No. 13 cabin and paid o013 for it."
