Never try to use green peach- es or those which, plucked green, have come to a feint of ripeness afterward. No market peach can ripen on the tree. It would be unmarketable before it had gone 1,000 miles. cook plenty of seed with them. peaches. Drop brandy on some lumps of sugar and put one in the place of each seed. Set the halves together in the bottom of a. cup, and fill the cup three parts full with junket. Put the cups on ice and serve with plain cream sweetened and flavored with peach seed syrup. Peaches in Jellyâ€"Prepare the fruit as for junket, but set it in clear glass nappies. Make a clear lemon jelly. using the fruit gelatine, and flavor it with ginger, and the juice of two fresh lemons. Just as it begins to set, pour enough around the peaches to halt cover tnem. Set them on ice yvith the rest of the jelly. When it 18 hard break it up into small blocks and heap them over the tops of the Peaphes. Serve with cream or sweet whlte wme. , Peach Creamâ€"This has but one draw- back. It must be prepared on the in- stant of serving. You need the ripest. Juiciest clearstone peaches. Put them on ice until ready to peel and crush. Have someice broken the size of small marbles. Half fill deep, thin glasses with it, and lay on top three lumps of sugar wet with brandy. Fill with crushed peaches, and send to table with whipped cream on top. Another way is to leave out the brandy and pour either claret or a dash of liquor over the fruit. Or a lemon may be squeez- ed over it, or it may be flooded with a creamy custard. In either of‘ the last A.£A_11__ tabuco.

Lay enough of them on a flat dish with the hollows up, to form a square. Put in each hollow a lump of sugar that has been rubbed on the yellow rind of a lemon until it is well flavored, then add a small layer of peaches, and till the hol- lows likewise. Continue until you have a pyramid. Squeeze the juice of two lemons over it, dust it thickly with powdered sugar, and keep cool until served. Compote of Peachesâ€"Make a quart of strong ginger tea. Add to it one and one-half pounds of sugar, and the juice and yellow rind of three lemons. Borl 0n peel and add to the syrup enough Belatine, dissolved in cold water. to make a ï¬rm jelly. Pour the jelly in a shallow dish, and when hard out into Shapes. Lay them over the peaches and put on top of all the curls of lemon peel. Serve very cold. As good as it is pretty, for a high tea. l Baked Peachesâ€"Indian peaches are the best. Peel. but leave them whole. and stick two cloves in each. Put them in a baking dish, letting the sides touch cover them with sugar. dot all the top with lumps of butter. and bake in a steady. but not slow oven until done. Excellent cold or hot.

A girl who aims at literature and produces very indifferent articles, is considered as a person of aspiration. and her gifts are apt to be overrated ever successful she may be. She is a “ good girl †in village par- lance, and that often implies a dull girl. No one thinks of her work with special pride as showing intellect and intelli- gence. unless it be an indulgent father or tired brother who has been cheered by the care and comfort of her domestic ways. No one thinks of it as showing a. superior intelligence to cook correct- ly. to flavor and serve food with exact- ness. yet that is what intelligent cook- ing means. It is an 'art that has occu- pied the attention of some of the greatest men of literature and science. and even of statesmanship. A famous French writer has gone so far as to call it “ the pet science of distinguished men.†It requires asup- erior intelligence far greater than any- thing else displayed in any of the ac- complishments of the modern boarding school. to broil and serve a perfect beef- steak. It require-s a_knowled_ge pf the as a person of plebian tastes, with no ambition beyond the kitchen.

It requires adelicate discrimination to ascertain the condi- tion of meat which has not been per- fectly hung and that which is in ex- actly the right condition for the grid- iron. Can a school-girl despise such knowledge when the great Chateau- briand .one of the greatest literary names of France, was proud of his knowledge in this matter? There is something exceedingly am- using in a schoolgirl’s considering cooking beneath her attention when the great Richelieu did not consider it beneath his attention and was accus- tomed to devote considerable time from affairs of state to the compounding of delicious dishes for the table. It must be distinctly impressed on young wo- men that she who excels as a cook is following a vocation that has never been despised by any one but the friv- olous minded. The girl who attempts something quite beyond her powers. which can be of no value to herself or any one else. simply to deceive the ignorant into the belief that she is “ g1fted †is doing a foolish, vulgar thing. and one that has been done so repeatedly that the vulgarity of it is monotonous. they hold a may w y... ._w. _ 7 itxon. but will bold are in a natural pas. aged: tune with the head it for the 10 «and mint their bqaom and the The girl that cooks well is doing something that she may well be proud of.

To handle forks nicely. to use the knife when necessary. to take small mouthfuls of everything. , which should be brok- en into small pieces and not bitten. to eat soup with little or no noise. and to leave the plate tidy with knife and fork lying parallel. to each other are things that really a few of the nice ought to be taught. .And then when _ - .41 _-Am an and mm hail not be1 bringing up The sooner you getva'child to be a law unto himself, the sooner you will make a man of him.

A Sal-8e In Ills loner mt Cont-ed I! ll: Dislike of Artillery If it Were permissible to apply sporting terms to royalty it would he Get 80 long that he looked askance at all artillery, great guns and small, and the reek of powder did not arouse in him the fever of fighting. In fact. he was decidedly lacking in martial spirit, and found difficulty in screw- ing his courage up to the point of even taking a salute without winking. His royalty was very rarely made Last year the British Consul. as one of. the moves of the game of small dip- lomacy which is forever playing draws on that beach, decided to honor the King. Accordingly, Malietoa Rex was The German cruisers, of which there ‘are one or two in Apia harbor for the greater part of the year, neither salute the Samoan flag nor receive the King. American men-of-war are very punctilious in asked or invited or ordered to appear with his Government aboard H. B. M. S'. Lizard in the harbor and be offici- ally received. At the appointed time half a dozen large boats hooked on to the starboard gangway of the gunboat. the naval officers and the Consul in fulness of uniform ranged themselves on the quarterdeck, the side was piped with exactly the number of side boys which royalty takes, the boatswain trilled the proper tune for majestY. and the drummer accompanied with the utmost accuracy in the matter of flams and ruffles. The King and Government were formally received on the quarter- deck. The scrupulous precision of the correctness of the whole proceeding was designed to produce an impression tem; they salute or not. jest as the commanders happen to feel. â€At the proper time the royal galley was: brought bank to the gangway and the potentate started for shore. The Government scrambled into the boats and in obedience to the fussy instruc- tions of the British Consul the flotilla rested on its oars to receive the sal- ute. As the Lizard was not regularly a saluting ship and had none of the small charges in her magazine, the sal- ute was given with full service charges and made a great racket. Twenty-one guns take a considerable time in the firing, and the Samoans in the flotilla saw with horror that a tide current was setting them down right across the line of fire. \Vhat were they to do? The British Consul had told them that if an oar moved during the salute it would be an insult to royalty. So far as concerned their own monarch they did not mind; they were constantly insulting him without fear of punish- ment. But they were greatly afraid on the two German corvettes lying nearby. It also exhibited to the pas- sengers of the mail steamer, which by a well-calculated chance happened to be in port that day. the courtesy of British gumboats. N. G.,J. McKechnie.

They drifted slowly down and the first boat got right in line with the last gun fired. The elevation was high. enough to carry the blast of the discharge above their heads. but there was a rain of partly burned prisms of powder. A series of Samoan yells was heard across the water. for the Gov- ernment of Samoa had really been fir- ed_on bya British warship. No official communications are known to have passed upon the incident. But next day the British Consul’s col- leagues smiled sweet and diplomatic smiles when the treaty officials held a conference with the King and ob- served the neat bandages which de- corated his chief advisers. And King Malietoa was more afraid of a gun than ever, for he judged that the peril of _a salute overbalanced the discharge of its honors.
