blackbridges have never had any serious difference of opinion since coukivg hkatu bvrijze c iiuxft few housekeepers understand fully the importance of properly cooking meats not only as a matter of taste but of health it is a commou error to suppose any one can boil a joint ruaal a niece of beef or broil a steak yet few cooks ever attain perfection in the art j boiling is a very general mode of cooking meat and in this way tbey may be made vory palatable jif properly doiip inatten tion to the temperature of tbe water and too early application of salt cause great waste in boiling as well as injuring the flavor of the meat to have a joint natn- cioas lo the appetite- it should be placed in a kettle of boiling water skimmed well as soon as il begins to boil and kept where il will boil slowly but constantly until done there ahoald always be saffiaient water to entirely cover the meat which should be occasionally turne and closely covered sail should uot be added antil the meat it nearly done as tt extracts the juice and renders the fieah bard aud tasteless fifteen minutes should be allowed to every pound as the time for boiling fresh meats and twentyfive minutes for salt meats the latter should be put on in cold water to boil meats should never be tamed or taken ap with a fork as by thes piercing them much omhe juice and flavor is lost a pod of red pepper put tn the water will preveqt the unpleasant oder of boiling from filling the hocdi celery caper oyster much room and a variety of other sauces may be served with boiled meat boasting is a very dclicioa mode of cooking mnats but is almost unknown in these days unless an open fireplace is con venient for sncli the following rules may be given keep the meat at a moderate distance from the fire see that it is kept continually tarred acd well basted with batter or meat drippings as much of the richness aad flavor depends npon this mat ter when nearly done pat the rout close to the fire to reader the oatside brown and crisp and add salt and pepper to the gravy baking is a more inferior way of cooking meat than roasting it bat is aow the usual method to bake a joint place it in a pan on a tripod or clean block of wood to keep it out of the fat and put in a hot oveu baste frequently allow fifteen mimtes to the pound for beef mutton acd real and twenty minutes to the pound for pork and iamb when dooe the roast should be a rich brown when ready to remove from the oven fine aalt should be evenly sifted over it broiling is the most healthy and accept able method of eookingmeils yet few cooks broil properly j a dear fire made with cinders or charcoal- is necessary for cooking with a gridiron the bars of which should be kept clean aad smooth there ahoald be a space of foar or five inches between the top of the fire snd the gridiron the latter should always be well greased with fresh batter the meat ibould be turned quickly and often to prevent waste of juice or scorching salt and pepper should be sprinkled on the last thing before serving broiling steak ham or chickcu for meal is the last thiui to be done so it may have the cooks undivided attention which is very necessary if desired in perfection the cry closet one of the rooms in a certain comfortable house is so useful that i think i must tell the boys and girls about it in order that they may select one in their own homes for the same purpose if their elder have not already thought to do so the room a small dimly lighted one is known by ihe jname of the cry closet and is devoed to the use of such little people as are id

johnnie says papa and johnnie departs still wailing and shuts him sell into his retreat pres ently ha viogbeen sufficiently doctored by silence and darkness he emerges rosy and smiling j little katharine who is prone to hare sulky fits at unexpected intervals refuses to answer when addtessedj mamma neither reasons with her nor spanks her go into the cry closet she recommends and katharine disappears contemplation proves the best tnedicice and it is not long before mamma hears a broken voice from the closet i i beg pardou munma what did oo say f i children of a larger growth may feel
