Uoilcil Icing Often one finds that ft boiled frosting is either too much done or not <<><, kc<l enough. A wo- man whose boiled frosting always calls for praise tells the secret of her Bitccess. She uses three table- Hpoonfnlx of water to a cupful of fiiigiir: when the mixture begins to boil she slowly beats nix tablespoon fuls of it into the white of an eg, beaten very stiff. Then she lets the remainder of the nyriip boil till it hairs ; this point in the cooking reachi-d, she beats it gradually into the egg mixture.

Just before stirring this into the vegetables add one- foiirth tPaspoonful of red ]>eper. (ioocl Vinegar To start, use any kind of sweet juice. If you have any jelly that lias gone to sugar or that didn't form, or a little sorg- ; hum, syrup, or anything of the : kind, put it in a stone jar with { enough warm water to make junt a sweetened water. Take a piece of brown wrapping paper, cut round the si/.n of the jar lid, and put with it a thin layer of bread dough the size of the paper. Roll both up to- gether and drop it in the jar ; this will form the plant. Any kind of fruit juice of rinsings from jelly glasses may be added at any time. Keep the jar in a warm place,. Tho contents will be videgar in about three weeks after the jar is filled and will taste just like cider vine- gar. It M u great saving, for one uses so much vinegar in the BUIII- mer for sliced cucumbers, salada, beets, beans, covering pickles, etc. Home Hints. Wrap cheese in a cloth soaked in vinegar if you wish it to' be kept moist and free from mold. If the alarm clock rings too loud- ly slip an elastic band around the bell to diminish the noise. Shelves are a necessity in every bathroom. So is a little medicine closet to hang on tho wall. Heat the clothespins if you would have warm hands while hanging out the clothes in cold weather. A great aid to baby's bath when he is afraid of water is'some water toys which lie can play with. Before dyeing a garment mark the right side with thread so that there will be no doubt about it. Every housekeeper should keep a pair of butcher's cuffs on hand to protect the sleeves in emergencies. Brushes and combs are best washed in strong ammonia water. For the bristles, it should be cold. To clean vibbon, sponge with al- cohol ami rub over tho spot with clean white soap, holding the rib- bon straight. To remove grease from woollen materials, rub in powdered French chalk. After sume hours shake it out. Use wash pillows whenever pos- sible for living-rooms and dens. They are more hygienic and more sanitary. When tinware is new, rub it with lard and heut thoroughly in the oven. Tinware treated in this way will never rust. Porch, chairs of wicker or reed can be cleaned with soapsuds and a scrubbing brush and then can be shellacked. To stone raisins without sticki- ness, stem them, cover with boiling water for two minutes and then o|>cii the r.'ii.sins. A cake f'.i >uld be iced before it is quite cold. Charcoal powder is excellent for cleaning fine knives. A sheet of heavy cardboard is de- sirable to cool hot cakes upon. A special knife should always be kept for onions, bread and hot fat. Try a long glass stirring rod for stirring food cooking over a hot otove. Hot soapsuds with ammonia is admirable for cleaning gold jewelry. In whipping cream, add the white of an egg to every cupful of cream. Cornmeul will remove lamp smoke from a wall blackened by kerosene. Chloroform is good for removing grease spots, but should be used with care. Turnips and potatoes mashed to- gether make a pleasant change on the lable. Never blacken a kitchen stove ; wash it every day with clean soap and water. Housewives will find llje butcher's apron a great convenience, as it covers even the sleeves. Before beginning to make a cake all utensils and ingredients should be placed ready to hand. Never plunge the ivory handle of) a knife into hot water. Wash the | knives in a knife jug. Scraps of cream cheese may be made useful by mixing them with butter and milk or a little cream. This should be spread on thin, waf- erlik crackers, made into sand- wiches and erved with salad. Pour boiling water on oranges and let them stand five minutes. This will cause the white lining to come away with the skin so that a large quantity of oranges can be quickly sliced for sauce or pudding. When sealing fruit butters or preserves, place a circle of thin cloth on top and sprinkle this with ground cinnamon. Tho spiee pre- vents mold from accumulating on the fruit. q.

A discussion of a peculiarly inter- esting character took place at a re- cent meeting of the French Philoso- phical Society. This Society has greatly intereated itself in the- "educated horsea of Elberfeld." The animals are the property of M. Krall, and he has taught them read- ing, writing and arithmetic, or olaimfl to have done 90. Tho horses can extract the square and cube roots of numbers, per- forming the operation o5 multipli- cation, addition apd subtra-ction which these involve. The French society has endeavor- ed to solve the problem presented by these remarkable quadruped*, and invited M. CLaparde, the dis- tinguished professor of psychology at tho University of Geneva, to ad- drpf-s them on the subject. M. Claparde said that since ho had s?en the horses two Italian sa- vants had obtained a correct an- swer from them at a time when their trainer was absent. No hypo- thesis, he went on, can satisfactor- ily explain the extraordinary fact of which he had been a witness. Kven if there were a trick, it in- volved great intelligence on tho part of the hordes. Other contribu- tors to the discusf/ion sugge/sixx! tho possibility of the horre-s bein.tj trained to act in accordance with sipns made by their trainer. M. Darlu, loepectof-Ganeral o' Public Instruction, marvelled that the. animals could learn in a few weeks that which it takes children three and four years of ago several months to learn. He was especial- ly astonished at the power of read- ing which Ihe animals possess. It was eventually decided that &omo further experiment should bo made, but all the savo-nts agreed that, whether there is trickery or not, the animals' performances aro remarkably interesting from the point of view of equine intelligence.

The Natives of llayti Call It "The GoufTrc.*' Earthquake sounds have been variously described and might be expected to differ widely according to circumstances and locality. Tlvr island of Hayti, which is situated in a neighborhood where the earth is in a continual state of tremor, is visited by a peculiar earthquake sound which Is locaJly caJled the "gouffre," and an account of it appears in the Bulletin Seinestriel of the Port an Prince meteorologi- cal observatory. The region of the "gouffre" is in the, mountain range of La Selle. which is about seven thousand feet high, and which, unstable, still, gives much evidence of past vol- canic activity. The sounds are ap- parently the same as those accom- panying noticeable earthquakes, and the name "gouffre" is applied to both. Its noise extends sometimes over periods of weeks and the vicar of C'roix des Bouquet-s, fifteen miles j north of the mountain range, gives the following- description of it: ' "During the day the sound was heard from the south-east and seemed to come from a great depth. It was like a deep roaring and then at times like the howling of a dog. From time to time it stopped with a hollow boom which might be taken for a distant cannon shot. "During the night it was differ- ent, although the sound came from a different direction ; there was a perfect tumult, rumbling of thun- der, howling and a sound like the' rushing of a strong wind. There was no wind, however. Sometimes one heard all the noises at once. Generally and above all, from 7 to 10 o'clock at night, the sound ended with a loud detonation much ftrong^r than in the day, followed by a long echo. Then again would be heard an outburst that cannot be imagined. It was as if a moun- tain of prlass were shattered and the noise echoed in all directions. At times it sixmied as if one could hear the roar of surf, or even the dead thud of objects falling, such as blocks of stone rolling down preci- pices."

The New York Sun quotes an a/ddress tljat it declares is probably written thousands of times a week in Germany, for it is a courtesy due to a tort of official whoan rank is far below that of a minister of state : "Highly reverenced Mr. Heal Privy Councilor, highly to bo rever- enced Mr. President." The title councilor has four de- grees, thus: Positive, councilor; comparative, higher councilor ; su- perlative, privy councilor, and ex- tra superlative, real privy council- or. Then to complicate matters, there are a hundred or more coun- cilors, such as councilors of U'.ga- tion, councilors of state, sanitary councilors, forest councilors, and town police councilors. Titles of another class have to do with the wearer's occupation. Thus a Munich newspaper records the death of Fra.ii So-awl-so, wife of the "Royal Court Theatre Color-grind- ers' Assistant." Bavarian news- papers used >to print notices, insert- ed by the persons themselves, of the betrothal of So-and-so, "Royal Su- pernumerary Hay-Binder's daugh- ter," or of So-and-so, "Head Bill- Poster's daughter." Much can be said in favor of the rigid German system of titles. For instance, in Germany, when a man takes the prefix "doctor" ho has a right to do so. The title cannot bo bought, begged or assumed.
