If you wish to give an extra touch to
your cottage pudding, after it is in .he tin
ready to bake, put little lumps of butter
on the top and spatter sugar and cinnamon
over lo.
A necessity in every household is
little el feet cr cabinet ttuog out of reaoh
of ohtldren where the msaber em keep
the bottles containing remecies f lr burns,
bruises, sprains, rap. Muoh huffring, : if
not life Limit, is saved by knowing where
to go at once for Boma simple meatoine.
A delicious tilling for it layer cake is
made of one cup of stoned raisins and ono
lemon peeled, chopped together; mux
with this half a cup of cold water and one
cap of sugar. Beat this well together; if
the cake is well baked, ao that there is a
cruet on the top, put the filling in whips
the cake le atilt warm. Ba sure to remove
the seeda from the lemons.
Chocolate jelly will sometimes be relish-
ed by one who has a delicate and uncer-
tain appetite. Boil three gala of tweet
milk and two bars of chocolate together
until the chocolate is entirely dissolved,
then add sugar and vanilla until the
c flavor you like is imparted. After dissolv-
ing half a bux of gelatine in cold water;
stir this in with the chocolate and milk,
let it aimmer gently for a few minutes,
then pour into moulds or bowie and aet
it in a pool room.
A pretty way to arrange a oh000late
pudding is to make a cornstarch blano
mange; before It is hard at all, take out
enough of it to fill a border mould, mix
with it enough grated chuoolate; when
this is hardened aufficiently, take it out of
the mould, pub ib on a small platter; and
heap the rest of the blanc mange in the
centre; if you wish it to look particularly
nice, make the filling for the centre after
the border le cool and on the platter;
then bhe filling will take the shape 9f it
and will be smooth, and it is then a very
ornamental dish for dessert.
A good ginger cake wherein no ogre
are needed is a boon to man with eggs
from forty to fifty cents a dozen. Take
a good tanle•apoonful of butter, one cup
of sour milk, half a cup of sugar, and
two-thirds of a cup of =lessee. Then
add half a teaepoontul of cinnamon, half
a teaspoonful of soda, disolved in a little
water, and a scant tablet.poonfal of ginger;
stir these all together and sif t flour enough
in to make a moderately stiff batter.
Bake in a deep cake tan, and cat in thick
alicea; half a cup of atoned chopped
raisins is an Exoellenb addition.
A treat for the chil Iron can be made
in place of the conventional pie or pudding.
Make a cruet, as if fur role poly pudding
or baking powder biscuit (using, however,
just as little baking powaor as will answer
and a few experiments will convince any
conscientious cook how little may euccesa-
fully fill the place ot the much she i8 often
tempted to use); roll this dough about as
thin as if for pie crust, then cut it in
small squares, Heap berries or preserves
of any kind, after draining the juloe trona
It upon them, wet the edges, and fold
and preen olouely together, co that there
will be no waste of !nice; then put them
in a deep tin baking pan wild a little
lump of butter on eaob one, a little water
also in the pan, and scatter some sugar
over each little pudding; when these are
done aerve them warm with a not too
rich pudding sauce, or they may be eaten
cold without sauce.
"TUCK BIM UP, BOYS."
An Astonishing Custom of the Court try.
The celebrated Dr. Bashby, master of
Westminster sohool was a savers discip-
linarian, His mode of panishment was
illustrative of his peculiar °hammier; ib
was summary and not discriminating. He
had a wooden horse, upon which culprits
were placed, and the invariable order for
making an offender "mount" (preparatory
o treatment by the lash) was, "Tuck him
up, boys."
One day a atone was thrown through the
window. The doctor raised his head, look-
ed round, and aatd to two of his largest
scholars, "Bring him in, boys. ' The
young men mon went forth in pureulb of
the offender. They searched in vain, and
were about returning, when a small
Frenchman passed that way. Tho young
men seized nl.on him, and brought htm
into the school -room. When they enter-
ed, the doctor raised his spectacles, and
having surveyed the little man from head
to foot aaid with great composure, "Tack
him up, boys." He was soon mounted and
fastened upon the wooden horse, and the
doctor with mechanical exactness, laid the
cowhide npon his back, never faltering at
all ab the vehement remonstrances of the
man.
Having completed the chastisement,
he ordered the boys to lead Mm to the
yard and let him go. This they did. Mor-
tified and full of anger, the Frenchman
hastened to the hotel near at hand, and
made particular inquiries whether the
school master was esteemed a gentleman.
Upon the assurance that hewas a very
great gentleman, ho palled for pen and
paper and wrote a challenge to the doctor.
He called the servant, a black man from
Jamaica, named Cnolar, and sent him with
the note, whilst he would wait for an an
ower.
Cocsar carried it and and handed it to
the dootor. Tho doctor read it; again lift-
ed his spectacles to his forehead ; survey-
ed the blackey, and seemed to have some
dregs of pity stirred within him ; but it
was only for a moment. Turning to the
first class, he signalled to his youthful
"Beton," and Bald, " Tuck him zap, boys."
This was rare sport for the boys, and
soon Cmsar was seated astride the
horde of honour and well pinioned. The
doctor seemed unudnally active in spread'
ing the oil of cowhide upon Ctlesarts brook,
79111.,t,Birer FTtT T- .,.—.x ..,..,-'-,r „r-.rn-T.•.
Ib wax thought the doctor intended thus
to show his signal displeasure toward these
who will aqb as secouds in duels. At any
rate Ctrttar never complained that'rhe WAS
Blighted. or had received less than his por-
tion. He was dirmisaied, not at all plea!•
ed with his errand.
Meanwhile the French gentleman be.
came more and wore impatient : looked
out of the window ; finally came to the
door and looked up the road, raw Ctesar
wending his way home, rubbing his bank,
" Vat!" he exclaimed, as the darkey ap-
proaohed, " Vat 1 He vippe you too ?"
" Yes," ears Che tar, showing his ivorioa,
and rubbing his back again.
"Alai ahl" aays the Frenchman, "Iarse

STRANGE BUT TRUE.
Although a variety of microscopic
forma of plants have been found on bauk
notes and coins in circulation, none
known to be dangerous to human life
have yet been discovered.
Mise Adele Field, in a communication
made to the Aoademy of Natural Sciences
of Philadelphia, reports that the common
earth worm, after its head has been out
off, has the power of regenerating the
whole of the dismembered portion. She
recounts her experiments with such min-
uteness of detail as seeds to show that
error in her conclusions was impossible.
A forcible illustration of the weight of
the atmosphere was given by Prof. S. P.
Langley, the American astronomer, In a
recent lecture in London. He remarked
that the air, so limpid that it scarcely ap-
pears to be matter at all, is so enormous
In masa that it really premien with nearly
a ton to eaoh square foot ; so that the
weight of all the buildings in the world's
metropolis, for instance, is leas than that
of the air above them.
The whits color of arctic mammals
and birds has hitherto been ascribed to
protective resemblance, the adaptation to
a snow-covered country being attributed
to the preservation of Individuals, which
by assimilating to their aurrouadings in
color, either escaped detection by their
foes, or were enabled to secure their prey
more advantageously. A writer in Na-
ture, however, scoffs ab this explanation,
and points cub that white, the worst ab-
sorber, is also the worst radiator of all
forms of radiant energy, so that warm-
blooded creature thus clad are better able
to withstand the severity of an arctic cll.
mate.
Prof. Palmieri, of the Veauvian Obaer-
story, finds that the atmospheric elec-
trroityis usually positive in clear weather;
if negative, a rale of rain may be inferred
to be in progress at some little distance.
Two maxima and two mimina daily are
noticed in the electric indications, this
periodicity being disturbed by atmospher-
lo movements. With dew, rain or an
overcast sky the indications increase in
intensity, and are stronger in Spring and
Autumn than in Summer and Winter.
A rain zone is positive, but is surrounded
by a negative zone, which in tern is sur-
rounded by a zone of positive electricity.
Thunder and lightning, according to this
observer, do not occur without rain.
The burial of a relative in Timor is a
very serious and expensive business. It
involves a gift to the deceased from all
his bloodrelatives,and, lnreturn, aburial
feast. If the deceaeed is a man of rank,
this feast is a matter vary often of rain
to his family. The festivity must be given,
and at the same time the hospitality is
expected to be extraordinarily lavish.
Constquenbly it often happens that the
day ot the funeral is indefinitely post-
poned for months, and even for years,
until the family has had time to accum-
elate auffiofent wealth and substance.
In the meantime the corpse is enclosed
in matting and housed either in a tree or
a hut and left to itself. Then for days
there is a savage banqueting and revell-
ing, and the interment at leaf, is carried
out• Among the more savage races of
the Timer Laub islands and Timer the
skull of an ancestor is severed after burial
and kept aa a relic in a place of honor
within the house.
flints on Summer Diet.
Milk is a very important summer diet,
but should be used iu moderation or it is
liable to produce 111 effects.
We strongly recommend skimmed milk
and fresh buttermilk as summer drinks,
instead of ice -water. The ice -water dy.
spepaia, a common malady during the
summer mouths, may be entirely relieved
by using small quantities of freshly churn-
ed buttermilk, a000mpauiod by what Is
known as a moderately dry diet.
Breakfast should not be a very heavy
meal, and hot food should be used in
moderation. Hot tea and coffee liberally
partaken of often prevents one from feel-
ing comfortable all day. Radishes (ice
cold), oatmeal crackers and milk, a dainty
Blase of cold lamb, fresh fruit, and cold
asparagus present a breakfast that makes
hob weather a luxury. '
A. peouliarlty of high pressure steam
is that it does not scald the hand applied
near the orifice from which it la issuing.
This arises from the fiat that on its flub
escape it expands so rapidly that its heat
becomes latent. In other words, the
heat is ao redased by expansion that
it is cold to the hand.
Recently a new boot has been introduc-
ed by a Bristol manufacturer, in which
a single spring la placed at the back of
the boot, in tho apse') above the heel.
The elastic is raid to be safer there from
friction, and therefore Iota liable to wear
out and give the ankles more freedom to
move.

A special committee on railroad axles
have by a majority reported that iron axles
are safer than steel allies, that all cranks
should have the webs hooped, that as iron
cranks appear to fail after running about
200,000 miles and steel rafter 170,000 miles,
itis highly desirable that they should be
taken off and never again used in passenger
engines, and that crank axles properly con-
structed are as strong as straight axles.
