Baked Beefsteak.â€" Take the l)one from a large sirloin steak, flatten it with the side of a hatchet, wash over t he upper side with a, l>eaU!n egg, and spread thickly with a forcemitit of cruml», minc'-d ham (or any other avail- able cold meat), a t easptH^nful . of minc- ed onicn, a little pepiier and salt, a beaten egg, and three tablespounfuls of sweet milk or cream. Make these into a paste liefore 8prea<liiig. Roll the steak •rounil them, tying closely with soft pac;k thivad. Have ready some drip- pings in a frying pan, with a cupful of boiling water. Cover and bake for for- ty minutes, turning and lasting often. When (lone, remove* the strings, lay the Ix'ef upon a hot di.-^h, thicken the gravy with browned flour, Ixiil up once, pour half ol it over the meat anil the re-st into a gravy boiit. The round is one of the most desirable jwrtiotLs ot the beef, since it is alnuist entirely free from Ix'uc ; and while not so tender as some of t lie interior portions, it exi-els all in nutritive value, and when prop«'.r- ly cooked no jiart of the carctias i.s more delicious. A large pie^'e of the thick meat of the round, cotited in .1 heavy paste of common flour, and wati-r, hung either ia the, ciH>n air or in a refriger- ator till well riiiened, properly cixikcd by any of the approved mel,hu<l.s, forms a food tit for an epicureâ€" or for uny- boily, so tar as that is con(vin"dâ€" anil will be found et«pecially agreeable in flavor, as well as easily dig^atilile. The coating ot flour paste retaiiu the juices of the meat, ami prevents the drying of the exterior portions which would otherwise take place, accompanied with more or less discoloration. .Vlmoat .-iny other portions, except the tenderloin, m-xj' Ix' flour-conted ind hung for ri[i- enmg in the s;iine manner. Boiled Beef Tongue.â€" Wash and wipe a good-.sized fre.sli Icngue, well triui- metl alHiut thi? not.

Let the tongue .simmer slowly in the stock for two hours; then drain. The stwk can be used fora.Julenne .soup. Skin the tongue as soon as it is taken up, liefore it has time to cool. A tongue thus cook- ed may be served in a variety ot attrac- tive ways. A piquant sfiuce with cu- cumber pickles will be relished by neajr- ly every one. So will tom.ato and mac- aroni. BOYS IN THK ROYAL NAVY. The, earliest age at which a boy can enier the royal mivy is !•'). He must British Prote<:torate ot Zanzilxir, East Africa, he paid particular attention to the system of negiti slavery which still e.xists there, under the authority of Her Majesty's Government. The importa- tion of new supplies of slaves has lieen prohibited by law, but Prof. Nicholson sjiys that this law has never been fully enforced, and never will be, so long as England upholds the slave systexu there. The continuance of that system is defended ujion the ground that it ia in accord with the prevalent Moham- medan religion ; but England might as well, on the same ground defend the custom of offering human sacrifices, which is in accoi-d with thti pagan re- ligions prevalent in some of her other African possessions. Slavery in the name ot Mohammed is no more justi- tial)le under British law than cannibal- ism in the name oi tlu) heathen gods. It is also defended on social and e<-ono- mic grounds by the highest British functionary in Zanzibar, who argues that its immediate abolition would ser- iously emlmrrass the tin:inces, and thus weaken the ix)wer ot the protectorate Oovernment. Prof. Ntiiholson regajda I his argument as discrediUible, and fav- ors the total, peremptory and iimnodi- ABOLITION OF SLAVERY. He casts aside the plea that the reven- ues would lie re<luceil by emancipation or by the payments that would have to lie ma<le to the owners of slaves, say- ing that if Englund will not six'nd the jialtry sum required lor compensation, she is unworthy of her name. He does not believe that, in the event of abolition, thn-e-fourtlis uf the whole Ixxly of slaves in Zanzibar, would aljan- dou their work, so that the clove and other plantations would lie ruined ; it is his opinion, after seeing the slaves, that they would remain at work as usual, if paid in wages for their work. Mr. Stanley, the African explorer, has maintained in the British Parliament that the settlement of the slavery question in Xan/ibar ought to be left in the hands o.t the British-Zanzilxir authorities, who unilei stand the (ques- tion in all it.s b<'ariiigs, but Prof. Niuh- Oi.sim is inclined to think that these authorities r<>gard revenue as more im- portant than lr«-e«lom, and he says that the military aclminlstrator. Gen. Mat- thews, has lieen described as "more Arab than the Aralis," that is to say, the Aral) slave <lealers in .\frictt. It is in plain language that Prof. Nicholson repnjttches lingiand for conniving at slavery in Zanzibar. It is adn)itt<-d that, if existing deci-eca were enforce!, the slave system would disappear with- in a few years, but must it exist for thes«> years under the British protec- torate, to England's dishonor .' Prof. Nicholson does not speak of any " horrors of slavery " in Zanzilwr. H« gives the language of another ol>serv- er, who .says that the work of the, slavejt in general is not onerous, and, when it is done, there is no interference with their lilierty of action. Between mas- ter and slave there Is <a tie of MUTUAL SELF-INTEREST. This other observer has also said that no one who s»'es the tovvn .slaves can fail to lie slnick with their gayety and lightui'ss of lu'art, and uo one who joins them In their dancing and singing clubs will couie away with the inipres- sioii that tlu; yoke ia al«Tiys heavy. I'rof. Nicholscn himself affirms that, ui many cases, the domestic slaves live in coMilort; but tliat circumstances can- not, Ije accepte<l as an apology for the slave system. He desiivs that the Hritish Parlia- ment shall take sjicedy and deciaive ac- t ion in the case. No estimate of the numlier of slaves in Zanzilxir is made by Prof. Nicholson, but a Commissioner ot the British and For^-ign Anti-Slavery Society who vis- ited the pixitecl urate last year sought LO pnuurt' the desired statistics, lie came to the conclusion contained in his rejiort that th>'re are as many as '2.50,- OUil slaves in the islands, ami that the further imijortatiiin of slaves is going on all the time. Most of the slavehold- ers are Aralis. Pix>f.

My dear Jimson, what is the cau.se of your joyful expres.sion ot counten- ance i Have you received a fortune I I have my dear fellow, I have. Congratulations. And the figuret It 's a li-o-yl Most people are too prune to look on the new cow a;s on a dress suit, aa mainly ornamental. The average man of good management will select his clothing with a view to usefulness as well as looks. His "best suit" under right selection, should be the cheapest in the end, comparing it with the so- called "cheap common suit." The same is true of the Improved cow. A Ibree-tourl hs blood grade cow that is a choii-e, individual of the tyiie of her pure-bred sire at a cost of sixty dollars, is better projierty under right manage- ment, ihan two common cows lacking in merit and unknown bree<lmg. If of a rare strain for butter, with a rich in- heritance of bptier reiords through sev- eral generations back of her pure-bred sire and puie-bred sire of her ilam, and herself a piolu;er of one pound or mure of butter per day, .such a cow bred again to the best of thoroughbred sires should produce off-spring still better. The, 31)1) pouncL^j of butler per year fur- nished by a model cow, i).iys a guud uivideud on the coit. Half this amount trom a cow of half the cost, would not lie profiuible, liecauso thj food cxmsum- ed would be iiraciicaJly the same. I'he farmer who has five cows, or two or three farm«r.i>, owing among them, a dozen cow.s, if making an aver- age, of 2UU pounds of butter .i your per cow, lan well aftoril to buy ur hire a pure-bred .-.ii^e. 1 ho fii'si lieifer calves should develop into cows of 251) pounds caiJucity iHjr year. The gain in butter and milk on two st>aaon's produce of a pure sire should ordinarily more than offset any extra cost of i he sire, com- piired wiih the scrub bull. the com- m<m sire eats as much as the "fancy bull," and usually breaks over the fences more ihau hiis rival.

The cause of the mottled ciinditioii which Is frequently seen in butter ia a disputed one, yet it is simple enough afler all. iVs we all know, salt affects the color of butter. All butter t,iikes on a deei>er lnu' when it lias U-<'n salted a few hours. Take a loc of butter from the churn in a ina^is, suit it in streaks by cutting down throiigli it with the ladle and scattering salt freely where the ladle went, lut it stand half a day lie- I'ore working, and you will see a good illustration of mottled butter. In a few words the explanation is this: Mottled butter is caused by unevun distribution of salt ; uuihiug more uor less. To avoid this the following plan is an excellent one, and one which is follow- ed by many ot our iiest butter-makers to-day: Leave the butter in granules, wash with water cold enough to pre- vent adhesion, drain and salt while still in Ihe churn, then revolve the churn or tip from side to side until the butter globules mass somewhat and the salt IS evenly distribut^id. Uy ti|)ping Ihe churn one way then Ihe other, the salt may lie very evenly .s|irinkled on, or a wooden fork of sui- table size may lie u.s«!d lo .stir it up, add- ing only a portion ot the salt at a t ijue. The salt melts or dissolves the mo- ment it touches the grains of butt«'r and each gr.iiii is iii.stantly coated with brine. 'J hen when the butter ha.s drained a few miiiiiles remove it 10 the worker, press until moileratoly dry â- ind pack away. No I'uriher working is necessary, and there will l)o uo trace ot streaks or a mottled condii ion tu lie found. •Salting in Ihe churn Is sure to lie a favorite metlioil with those who try it. The amount ot butter can lie very clasely estimated, .ns the amount from a given quantity of cream does not vaiy vt rj material ly from lime t.o time. Nor Is it <'ssenlial to weigh out the salt cnch till!.'. Mejisurc out a iMiiinil of salt, usually a full pint of salt, uill weigh a pmind, and it is more quickly measureu 1 han weighed each tune. yome adhere very teiuu'lously lo the old way of twice working iheir butler, bui once Is a great plenty. If Ihe salt, is evenly i!ii( rilaiied and the e.\,coss of moisture pressed out, that is sufficient and can ua well Ixs done at one oiiera- tion as at two. KEKP THE COWS CLEAN. The .skin of an aniiiial is an active ex- creting agent, and a large quantity of foul matter Is thus removed by it from Ihe lilootl. All this matter will dry on the .skin, and it not removed fre- quently will cover it and chig the numerous pores by whi<:h I ho eftete matter escapes. I'hls dried matter is iiifwt. ea*ily looseixvl by the card made of tine wires and acting like a comb, and a stiff brush then coiniilctes the cleanoing of the .skin by removing these loost^ned .scales. IVsides, the. skin is coniiuii.'illy changing, .scales of dried ILssue liro.seiiiiig in the form of dun- druff. while the new I Issue is toruied tmder them. It Ls in this way that AGRICULTURAL NOFES. An English s<d<ajtist fiuils tliatwhen IKjtatoes are cooked without removing their .skins .they lose only 3 per cent of their nutritive quality through er- tr.Tction ot their juices. When the skins were remove,d liefore lioiling the loss was 4 iier cent, which makes the latter way a very wiistcful one. Persistent work pays in net profit and satisfaction. Weeds ««it up so much pUmt food and drink up .so much water in a dry time ; and yet they can lie kept down so cheaply with mower and smoot hing harrow and weeder if we use our brains in the way of good manage- ment. Three methods are practu«d to pre- serve the fertility of the soil, to-wit: Rotatiim of cn»i»s, application of com- mercial fertilizers and the use ot barn- yard manures. Though all three are often blended the fir.^t is of jirimary imiKirtance, as it costs nothing but labor of mind in determining the rela- tive value of crops produied ;md ihe condition in which the .soil is left. Luxuriant crops are always produced upon new hind where the woods have lieen burned over. I'he power oi [loljish in a.sht^s to lilierate nitiiig:en from the humus in the soil Is suffiident to make .ishes of greiit value.

Elei-trlo lighting is passing through an interesting and important stage. At one time the main point considered by the customer was to have a large aggregate amount of light nsdo bis house, store or factory, and the dispo- sition and quality of it were secimdary matters. Ec<inomy, comfort and health are now factors which enter largely into the lighting arrangeuient.s of ev- ery new installation. In officeji par- ticularly there ia more care given to the screening of the light, and it is placed at a iigreater distance from the desk wherever practicable. One .singular result of this innovation is that clerks who are iionstanl ly at the desk suffer loss from the dropping out ot the hair than formerly. .Vt one time the light would be fi.xod just over the bead ot the occupant of a desk, and the heal of the light would so lieat down lai bis scalp that in iviurse of time the hair became weakeneil and baldness ensued. This, indued, is given a.s one ot the many caiisi^s why Iwld- ness is nowadays so prevalent. With a better phuing and a judicious tcmiier- ing of the light has coiuo a distinct im- (iidveiiieut in the health of employes, aud in one large establishuienl where over IflO clerks are employed Ihe low tate of alisentoeisiii from sickness, which is less tlian one-third ot t)ie normal, Is attributed to this cau.se. In fa*:tor- ii«i it is found that t he g.Mxl or bad arr.-inge.ment of the ligliting will make an i-normous difference in the amount of work done by the ojuMators, and t lie less strain there is to the eyes either from t(Ri much or too little Lhu lietter is the output of the operative depart- ment.

KlalMirati^ attempts were also made tu itscertain the best size and shape, of lamp bulbs, but Ihe results varied ao in each case that it is yet an <>pen qiie-<tiiiii. I'lie. general I rend of opinion seems to be in fivor of compara- tively large buUw, with small necks and well roundoti on the ends.
