Household Hints. Afadelins.--Cream one cup of better with one cup and three-quarters of sugar, add three eggs, two cups of -flour, one-half cuplof corn starch, three teas poonfuls of baking powder, and one teaspoonful of extract-pf vanilla. Bake in patty pans in a quick oven. Lemon Ride. -Pick and wash one cup- ful; of rice, put it into a deep eitithen dish with one quart of • water and a little salt ; cover tightly and place on the back of the range or stove, where it ? may gradually cook without danger of b burning. If the water should be con-. • sumed before the rice is done add eeough - to swell it out tender; care has to be taken that the grains remain whole. When the rice has become tender put in a colander and pour cold water over it until the grains appear, to separate; drain it well and replace in the dish. Then add white sugar to taste --it needs to be very sweet --.-the grated rind of one and the juice of two lemons : set • back on the Stove and let it simmer ten or twelve minutes? then pour it into a • wet mold, and when cooled off pat on ice until wanted. Turn out like a blanc- mange. Irish Stew. -Three pounds of lean mutton cut into pieces not more than • two inches square. Stew the meat gently in enough cold water to cover , it until it is tender; remove from the _fire, straia off the gravy, and set it in a cool place to allow the fat to rise to the top. hlkim off every particle of this, and re- turn the gravy to the stove; season it to taste with a little chopped onion and herbs, and pat the meat into it -together with a dozen 'potatoes which have been parboiled and . sliced; cook fifteen minuteaand serve very hot. By allow- ing the gravy to cool and removing the tallowy cake that rises to the top the •disagreeable oleagenous taste will be avoided and a very 'different dish. wib be evolved from • that which usually figures under the name of Irish stew. Bottled Pickles. -Let a hundred fresh small cucumbers stand in salt and water for three days. Bail ten minutes in half a gallon of good vinegar, one ounce of mustardseed one ol juniper berries, one of celerys,eed, a dozen green peppers, two pounds of sugar, -a few small onions, and a lump of alum. Pour the vinegar while hotover the pickles for 'three. mornings, heating each time; mix quarter of a pound of mustard with the Ni.negar. Put the pickles in bottles and seal. Onio-n Pickles. -Take large white onions, remove the skin, and pour over boiling salt water, let stand three days. pour off and add fresh brine, let stand over night. Then take one gallon ef vinegar, adding two ounces of tumeric, scald and pour over the onions, cover the jar and let the onions'stand fot ten days, then pour off and put on them strong vinegar, seasoned with red pep- per, riorseradish, celery -seeds mustard, and srnall spices. • ses even a lingering taint of temper, should keep an axe and a wood pile smnewhere handy, that he may rush out and work off his wrath -When it waxes tierce. 'There is nothing in this vain old world that Will send a man back to his appointed work, with a more wilted collar, and a truer comprehen- sion of himself, than thirty minutes wrestling with a full flavored axe. He can Use it S-1) fiercely on the wood. All the fury of his nature, all the hate he feels; for his enemy, he can infuse into that axe handle, and how the chips will fly. Not very artistically, probably, but they wilt fly. And presently it be- gins to dawneupon the . man that he is feeling more istInt. Evidently he is ex- periencing a change of heart. He does not hate his enemy so bitterly, after all. The axe weighs about al pounds on the up stroke. Re does not hate his enemy at all. He changes his stroke and be- gins to chap on the system of Italian penmanship, the up strokes heavy and the down ones light. • He rather loves his enemy now. At heat he puts all his failing strengthinto one terrific _blow. Ile misses his tip with the axe and. smites the chappiug block with the handle. A 'tingle as :though he had • wallowed an alarm elock goes from elbow to hip, and back again, and the axe drops from his po:warIess hands, and a weak, limp, nerveless, perspiring, trembling, gasping thing, he staggers into thh e ouse, lies down on the first thing that looks like ej, lounge, and is ready to die.
