- u-wmwvbm is =4 l Household. ‘M~~~~M mm Economy in the Home. These be hard times, when new methods of economy are eagerly sought. A great deal of unnecessary expense may be saved without depriving the family of the best the market affords by a systematic course of borrowing prime articles of butter, tea, cof- fee, etc., from the neighbors, and repaying the same with goods of an inexpensive char“ actor, or the act of repayment may be omitted altogether with profit for a limited period. As a general thing, however, it is good economy to pay debts of this kind in the manner suggested. One very considerable economy needs the co-operation of another family. Let two young people get engaged, and no market- ing to speak of need be done. The engage- ment need only be temporary, but every one is expected to give a dinner to the happy pair prospective. if the honeymoon ever rises for said pair, it will probably be spent in taking sure cures for dyspepsia. That reminds me that is far better to pay the bu tcherthan the doctor. In fact, it is bet- ter to pay any one than the doctor. There- fore, if a. member of the family (all ill, it is clearly improvident to waste money in the. employment of physician, or upon drugs and medicines. instead, rather spend the money upon prime cuts of meat- and artific- ially raised fruits and vegetables. If the sick person caiinoteat of these luxuries, the well ones, including yourself, can eat. them; so that not only is money saved but there is a distinct and aCceptaUle gain to you in manner and diet. Speaking of food, it is poor economy to buy fancy patented food for water-bugs and roaches. The household pets thrive quite as well on crumbs and bits of meat, and the expense is hardly appreciable. Besides, some of these patent foods might be poison- ous, and you might get into trouble with the society whose business it is to protect animals. And while I am on the subject of pets and food, let me remind you thatit is amistnk- en idea that children should not be allowed to partakeofsweets untilthesubstantialparts of a meal have been disposed of. By per- mitting the little ones to indulge freely in saccharine foods at the outset their stomachs will become cloyed, rendering it impossible for them to partake largely of other articles, and thus will your meat bill be, in more than one way, sensibly diminished. Home Made Awnings. Get for the frames of your home-made awnings two round pieces of wood, like broom handles. These will do nicely if you have enough of them. Put a screw eye through the end of the broom handle and fasten it to the side of the window by running a hook through it. Pinch tire hook shut so that the eye will not slip out. Now fasten to the top of the window cas- ing at the sides two similar sticks, but longer, as they must reach out to the out.- side edge of the awnings. Place another round stick between the end of the stick which you put in the lower part of the window and the end which you put in the upper part, and you have the awning frame when you have done this on both sides of the window. It is ever so easy. And if you do not understand, look at an awning and you will see for yourself. A little sail cloth may be bought and the awning part made and scWed on. Of course, as planned, there are no side pieces to the awnings. But this is immaterial and is preferred by many, as it shields without shutting out the view. A little ingenuity and arranging of strings running over the window will lift up the awnings. One woman I know was so ingenious that she got the idea of lifting the awnings above the casing after they were closed. And maybe other women will see how to do this. The screw eye then runs upon a rod. placed perpendicularly on the window casing. A Bunch of Recipes. Caper Sauce.â€"Two tablespoonfuls of flour and a half cupfnlof butter beaten to a cream : then add a pint of boiling water. Set the mixture on the fire and stir it con- tinually until heated to the boiling point ; then add salt and pepper to taste, three tablespoonfuls of capers and one table- spoonful of lemon juice. This is the best sauce to serve with lamb. Mint Sauceâ€"Pick, u ash and shred fine some fresh mint, put on it a tableSpOnnful of sugar and four tablespoonfuls of vinegcr. Nice with mutton and lamb. Egg Sauce for Fishâ€"Take one cupful of butter, rub into it one tablespoouful of flour, halfa tablespooni‘ul of salt, and a quarter of a tesspconful of black pepper; then add a pint of cold water. Heat it, stirring Nitric time: when it begins to simmer, remove it from the tire, and add two hard-boiled eggs chopped fine. Irish l‘otato Puttâ€"Stir two cupfuls of mashed potatoes, two tablespoonfuls of melted butter and some salt, to a tine, light, creamy condition: then add two eggs well beaten. separately, and six table- spoonfiils of cream : beat the whole lightly together, then pile it in rocky form on a dish, and bake it in a quick oven until nicely browned. It will become quite light. l’otuto Snow.â€"â€"Sclcct large Irish pota. toes of uniform size. and boil in their skins in salt water until perfectly done. The great art of boiling lrisli potatoes is not to. allow them to remain in the watera minute after they are. done, and if they are not roperly cooked. the dish will be a failure. Vixen the potatoes are done. drain dry uni peel them. Then rub them through a coarse sieve upon a hot dish on the stove. This must be the dish tint goes to the table, as it will never do to touch them after the flakes {all into the dish. Let. the cover of the dish be but before it. is put on. Serve immediately. Baked Cabbageâ€"Cook a cabbage till perfectly done in salted water. Take it up with a skimmer, so as to drain out the water as much as possible. Put it into a dish, out it up fine, season toyour taste with butter and pepper, adding a little more salt if necessary . then add a cup of rich sweet milkâ€"less, if the cabbage is small. Put the whole in a baking dish and cover the tops. quarter of an inch thick with rolled crackers or fine bread crumbs. on which put minute pieces of butter here and there. As soon as it browns it is done. Serve in the same dish, This is the most delicious way cabbage was ever cooked. The rolled crackers are put over it to absorb the moisture. Pineapple Pie.â€"Take the weight of one grated pineapple in sugar, and half its Weight in butter. Cream the butter and sugar together, add the well beaten yolks of five eggs, then a cup of sweet milk and the pineapple ; lastly the whites of the eggs beaten to a froth. Bake in one crust only. Eat the pies cold. “DID YOU EVER KILL A MAN?” _ Air Incident of the Zulu War In South Africa. This is a question that is often asked of an old soldier ; sometimes it is easily ans- wered ; oftener it gives rise to doubt and misgivings as to one’s actual responsibility for a fellow creature's blood. I will give an instance of the latter phase, by relating an event that occurred to myself during the Zulu war in Africa. Having been severely wounded at the battle of Uhlundi I was on my way to Maritzburgh, where a very near relative was a. high official in the British civil ser- vice. I was borne on the shoulders of na- tives in a. species of palanquin, called by them a puitra, and had to bear the burning heat of the day and the no less oppressiva closeness of the night with naught between me and the elements save the palm-leaf roof of the pukra. After the second day’s journey toward nightfall we came upon the snug home of a Dutch settler. \Vhen Living- stone first caught a glimpse of the Nyanza he did not feel a deeper sense of GRATITUDE AND RELIEF than Idid on beliolding the humble resi deuce. Soon I was lying on a rough but. not uncomfortable lounge in the room that ' represented parlor, dinner, and drawing- room, while our sable attendants curled up on the veranda with the zest for slumber characteristic of the African, whether on that or this side of the Atlantic. The good frau did her best to make me feel easier, and after the long-drawn pain of the tedious journey, I soon fell asleep. How long I slept know not, but I was aroused by the creaking of the lattiCe on the window close to where my couch stood. It had been thrown open and the moon was«casting its rays into the spacious, if barren, dining' AN ESSEX COUNTY MIRACLE. How an Old Lady Was Released from Suffering. strong Tesllmony o! a Reliable Witness Added to the Already Lon: (hnln of From the Leamington Post. Mrs. Mary Olmstead, a highly respected and well known lady residing south of the village of \Vheailey,eight miles from Learn- incton, has been the subj at of an experi~ cues that has created not a little wonder, and has excited so much comment in the vicinin of the lady’s home that the Post believes it will prove of general interest. Proceeding to the handsome farm resi- dence, we Were ushered into a room where sat the genial old lady. Upon enquiry she informed us that she was in her eightieth year, and for one of her yeais she is the picture ofhealth. She expressed her readi- ness to make public the particulars of her suffering and cure, stating that while she did not care to figure prominently in the newspapers, yet if her testimony would relieve others suffering as she had done,she would forego any scruples in the matter. She then related the story of her case as follows : “ About six years ago I was stricken with sciatica rheumatism, which first made its appearance in my left knee. but gradually took possession of all my limbs. \Vithin three months after its first- appearance I was unable to leave my bed, and day and night: suffered the most excruciating pain. My limbs were swollen to more than twice their natural size, and drawn out of all natural shape. My feet were also badly swollen, and my right arm was in the shape of a semi-Circle. For three long years I suffered in this manner, being unable to put afoot to the floor, the only way I could move around was by being wheeled in a. chair. My appetite gradually left me until I had no desire. or relish for food of any kind, and I got very thin and weak. During all this time I kept doctor- ing with the medical practitioners of the neighborhood, and swallowed gallons of medicine which cost my husband much money, but I am unable to say that I re- . oeived any benefit from this medicine. My , agony kept increasing and my system 1 growing weaker, till many times death would have been a welcome relief to my sufferings. After reading in the news- .papers about the many cures effected by : the use of Dr. lVilliams’ Pink Pills, I > decided to try them. My case was a stubborn one, and it was not until I had taken half a dozen boxes of the pills that I l began to feel an improvement. I continued l taking the pills, however, and never had ti. lrelapse, and to-day Iain as hearty and ' healthy as I was before the rheumatism i came on. I am now able to knit and sew ; as fast as any young person, while for years i my fingers were as stiff as needles. I owe . my recovery entirely to Dr. Williams’ Pink I ' Pills, and will always have a good word to say for them. l I Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills may be had of. all druggists or direct by mail from Dr. llVilliams’ Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont., i or Schenectady, N.

The end of this month he intends to proceed to that region with a cargo of English goods, which he will dispose of to the best advantage possible, with the view risque attitudes, taking a iiiuch-needed .of establishing a. regular business.” rest in the same apartment with myself, I could not imagine how this English private came among us.

As I turned my head the maoman u as partially through the window; the terrible eyes were fixed full upon me, the right arm was upraiscd, while the left held the lattice. I fired, and being but a boy at the time and weak from loss of blood, promptly fainted. On recovering my friends told me that on the report of the revolver they all sprang to their feet, when they beheld the form of the soldier lying across the window-sill with the blood pouring from a wound in his breast. They rushed forward to seize him, when, to their astonishment, he sud; denlyspraug erect, and with a yell that made thcnistcp back in horror bounded off into the night. Whether he was a straggler from our army who had become demented from sunstroke or some other cause we never ascertained, Probably his name appeared amongst the list of “ miss- ing” in the report of that battle that laid Zululand at the feet of England. M Had Forgotten His Bride's Name. Some remarkable instances of absence of mind in great nieu are to be found in collections of one. A Dutchman seems to have surpassed anything of the kind yet perpetrated. Heis a widower, and be pre- sented himself a day or two ago at the Registers in a little village near Amster- dam to give notice of his intended marriage. On being asked the name of the bride, how- ever. he declared he could not remember it, and he had to be sent away in order that he might get the desired information. .__.._.°__._.___ Nature's play is (over new, because she ever creates new .pecta'ors.
