Fish Omelet. -Take the reruaius of Cold boiled whitefish, four eggs, a little weft° sauce, a' tablespoonful ot ruin; or cream, ouee ounce and a half ot butter and a dash of pepper, salt and vase:once Now free the fish from all skin and bones, break it into small flakes, melt a piece of butter iu a small stewpnn. add the fish seasonings and enough white Sauce to moisten tbe fish. Kent it bot, sligbtly beat the eggs in a basin and add the tnlik and season to taste. Melt a, full ounce of butter iu an (Aue- let pan, pour in tbe eggs, stir over a bot Lire until the mixture begins to set, then shake well. Shape it in an Vat form, put the prepared fish in'the mich tile' and fold in the -ends. Allah it to color and then turn out on a bot dist) and serve immediately. Baked Mackerel. -After filleting the fish cut each piece in two, season n i th pepper, salt and lemon juice and ar- range on a buttered dish in this fash- ion -first a piece of fish, then a slice of tomato and so until all the ingredlents are used. Pour over a little stock, cover with a battened paper and cook la the oven for twenty minutes. Dish up, mix with the stock in which the fish was cooked a little brown sauce, boil up and finally stir in a good sized piece of butter. four the sauce over the fish and serve, Cod a I'Espagnole.-Slice a Spanish onion and fry it in oil, then add double its weight of cooked flaked cod, pre- viously freed from skin and bone, and sufficient tomato sauce to moisten it all, seasoning it with salt, cotalline pepper and minced sweet herbs. Now stir it all over the fire till thoroughly bot, and serve. Baked Hallbut.-Get as much hali- but as you require and cut it in thick slices, thicker than you would for fry - Mg. Sprinkle a small baking pan with Pepper and salt, lay in the fish; sprinkle with pepper and salt. Pour in milk to come to the top of the fish. Bake in a good oven about half an hour, then re- move the fish to, a bot platter, add more milk if necessary for a gravy and thicken with flour. Season to taste and pour over the fish. Another way to cook halibut is to make about one and one-half cups of butter gravy. Have it rather thick, as the juice from the fish thins it considerably. Put a pound of sliced halibut in a pudding dish, cover it with gravy, cover the dish and bake half an hour. Kitchenettes. Camel's hair and red sable brushes that have got out of shape or curled can be restored to their proper form by dipping first into hot and then into cold, water. To make individual chicken pies line gem pans with pastry, leaving crust enough to fold over a tablespoon- ful rich chicken hash, and bake in a quick oven. If the cake Savoring has been for- gotten wben making the batter try sprinkling the required amount over the cake as. it stands in the pan be- fore baking. If brooms are to sweep clean they ,must be washed occasionally and freed from dust and dirt. To two quarts of warm water add four tabie- spooufuls of household ammonia. Stand the brooms in this for half an hour. Rinse in cold water and hang in the sun to dry. House brushes of any • variety be washed in this ma y manner. An Innovation In Gloves.

I FORCE OF THE SEA Terrific Power Is Generated When a Cyclone Rages. THEN THE WATERS RUN WiLD All Regularity of Wave Motion Ceases as the Sea Bursts Its Bounds -Gran- ite Blocks Weighing a Thousand Tons Tossed About Li ke Pebbles. A pond troubled by a pebble gives a comprehensive idea of the mechanism of the perpetual motion of the ocean, now slow, regular and majestic, run- ning from horizon to horizon, now iungovernablef ins rush ng in fury y agA t the land. When a pebble fails in a pond it produces a fine circular line, which widens, multiplying until stop- ped p - Ped byits bouad ri s. Just so is pro- duced tbe surging of the sea. To . judge from appearances, tile swells transport the water toward the circumference of the pond. In point of fact they do nothing of the kind, as le easily proved by a match or splinter of wood being cast upon the water; The match is hardly raised or lowered by the passage of the swell. The action in evidence is simply the transmission of motion, not the transmission of matter. The fine waves of the sea are gen- erated by the wind as fine waves are generated by the wind when it ripples a field of grain ready for the harvest. The waves that run over the field of grain are real waves, often waves in fierce action. The spears of grain are immovably fixed to the ground by their roots, but every blade transmits its os- cillatory movement to the next blade. Just so liquid molecules are formed. In the middle of a vast ocean, such as the equatorial Atlantic, for instance, great regular undulations are seen mul- tiplying in parallels like tare furrows in a vast plowed field. On the broad ocean the liquid mounds of the sea rise with every swing with more or less even regplarity. The mariner's imagination has given the great waves of the high sea the reputation of fabulous height. Relia- ble apthors have talked of waves mountain high and of waves 120 feet in height. Exact measurement has giv- en a closer estimate. The waves of the high sea, of the ma- jor oceans, attain the height of fifty feet under the exceptional conditions of a tempest in the vicinity of Cape Horn and the Cape of Good Hope. The surges here estimated are those in free circulation on the high seas. When h wave, whatever its strength or its weakness, meets a solid obstacle, :whether that obstacle be a rocky cliff or a ship, . the swell rebounds to ex- traordinary heights. Lighthouses are often swept by the sea from base to summit. The length of waves is between twenty and thirty times their height, and the slope of the sea's hills is very gentle. A wave sixty feet high is somewhere between 1,000 and 1,200 feet long. At the axis of the revolving tempest called a cyclone there are many wave systems, moving in all directions, meeting and combining. When the cy- clone is in action the sea is said to "burst its bounds." At such a time all regularity of wave succession ceases, and the sea runs wild, with force beyond human power to estimate. Blocks of granite weigh- ing from 1,000 to'1,200 tons are caught by the sea and rolled like pebbles to distances of 300 feet and more, and sen walls are splintered as by hatch- ets. The "live power" of a furious sea is estimated by multiplying the mass of the surge by the square of its speed. When the surf, impelled by the drive of the broad sea, meets a solid obsta- cle its pressure ib thirty tons per square meter of Neater. -This estimate, which is close, explains bow water,. when continually sapping the foot of n cliff, 'breaks down the land, forces back the shore line and little by little, constantly and surely, increases the sea's domain. A wave from 33 to 35 feet high and. 625 feet long -such a wave as the sea produces every eighteen seconds -rep resents power of about 1,350 horse- power, steam, per square yard. -Har - per's Weekly. Orators and Stimulants. It is believed that no modern legis lators keep themselves up to tbe mark in tbe same dangerous way as some et their predecessors in the British par- liament. "Huskisson told me," writes Lord Broughton, "that Lord 'Castle- reagh and Lord Liverpool beth took ether to keep them going when speak- ing. He also told me that he once ask- ed Mr. Wilberforce what made his fin- gers so black, and Wilberforce told elm that he was in the habit of taking opi-ii-m before a long speech, `and to. that,' said he, 'I owe all my success as a public speaker.'"
