Dull- on lamp: Among the addition. to the Ire."- fast table that It small cost add un- mensely to its attractiveness. none rank higher than hot rolls and fancy breads. The first on the list is Vienna bread. The chief difference between this and ordinary bread is that milk, or milk and water. is used instead of water in mixing it. Sieve and warm 1 lb. of flour. mixing it as you no 3V nith about a dessertspoonful of salt; then work together 1 DB. of German, or any other good yeast. and one or two teaspoon- fuls of powdered sugar. till it all lique- ties or "creams;" now melt 1 oz. of butter in a clean pan. and as it dis- tsolves, pour to it half a pint of milk, and allow the latter to become just tepid. (a good baker once told me that the proper temperature for a baking liquid was obtained by adding two parts of cold liquid to one pert boil- ing), next stir in this a whole egg, and pour this all to the yeast. with which it should be well beaten up. Heap the flour up on the pastry board, and make a hollow in the centre with your knuckles; pour the milk, yeast. etc.. into this hollow, working down some of the flour from the sides till you have made a kind of a little pond in the middle. Now let it rise in a warm place for ten minutes or so till the surface is all covered with bubbles. then mix in the rest of the flour, and knead it all vigorously to a soft paste, and again put it in a warm place to rise, covered with a thick cloth. until i the surface is all cracked, which it will . ‘be in about two hours. Now take it ‘out and roll it out about three-etuarter'3 of an inch thick; it can then be made up in twists, or the horseshoe roll so often served In nurope with the morn- ing coffee. For the first, cut the paste into three long strips. about six inch -s long. and roll these with your floured palm till you have three rolls of equal length. Now press the ends of three strips together. bringing them to a neat point, and proceed to braid them in three just as you would a ribbon, or wool being careful to shape them as you do so, that the end may be pointed ‘like the beginning, make as many of these as you need, lay them on a well- buttered baking sheet, brush them over lightly with beaten yolk of egg. and bake in a moderate oven till they are a pale golden-brown. For the horseshoe rolls you cut the Vienna dough after rolling it out, into squares and again eat these across diagonally, so that you have now twice as many triangles as you had squares. Bring the base of the triangle0.e., the origin- lal diagonal). in front of you, and with iwell-f1oured hands roll it over lightly till it is all twisted up. the point form- ing a little triangular flap on the outside; then bend the points lightly towards each other to give the horse- shoe shape. again let them rise on a buttered tin for fifteen or twenty minutes, and bake. Brush the twists over lightly with a. little milk, or egg and milk, to make them shiny and moist, as soon as they are taken from the oven. The great secret about these rolls is to roll them as lightly as possible, so as not to destroy the round appearance, and so make them heavy. Shape the remains of the dough into little oval rolls, the size and shape of an egg. cut them crosswise across i the top. Let them also rise for twelve or fifteen minutes, then bake, brush over with milk and use. Another very nice form of this bread is to take the dough and divide it into three long rolls, shaping these with your well floured hands to a kind of torpedo shape, pointed at both ends, giving one cut down the length, brush over with beaten egg. and bake in a pretty hot own. These can also be made into de- eidely nice rusks, if, when baked. they are quickly sliced and baked again to a delicate pale golden color; but in that case the full amount of sugar should haw been allowed at the be- I ginning. They may be also flavored to taste with vanilla or lemon sugar. or lin Germany powdered cinnamon is much used. 7 _ ‘ommuuoouumgooog .

Now roll it out as evenly as possible into an oblong shape, and put all over it little pieces of hut- ter (previously well freed from butter- milk, and kept on ice to harden it); now roll this paste up as for puff paste, let it rest a little, then repeat the butter and rolling three or four times; than make up the paste into long, cigar-shaped rolls, and [19kt Salt-Raised Bread - Many people claim great superiority for this bread, as tar as digestibility is concerned. over ordinary bread stuffs. It is made thus: Sift into a pint of seald- ing-hot water as much flour as will make a thick hatter ; add to this half a teaspoonful of salt, and beat it vigor- ously logdther till quite 'smooth and full of air-hubWs. Cover this closely and let it stand in a warm place, the dish containing it being set in another full of warm water and let it stand all night. Next morning scald a pint of milk, and when this is lukewarm odd to it a teaspoonful of salt and enough flour that will make a batter that will drop, but not run, from the spoon. Into this pour the mixture mad- OI ernight, which should be very light. and have a distinctly unpleasant small; heat these two mixtures Thoroughly together for three or four minutvs. then cover the pan with a thick cloth, and again stand it in a pan of warm water, end leave it for two hours in a warm place. when it should be very light indeed.

Flowers in season should always be upon the dining-table. even if it be no more than two or three blossom in a slender use with some grasses and leaves. But the possibilities for beautiful effectsin table decoration by flowers are very great. The flowers which are In season are most enjoy- able and desirable, adding to beauty as they do a touch of novelty with the changes of the year. As tar as possible. fruit in its sea- son should be served with its own na- tural foliage. which will add greatly to the beauty ot the dish of fruit. Oranges are lovely among their own dark, glossy green leaves. The same rule obtains in regard to other fruits. In the autumn a bunch of berries in a small bowl or vase in the center of the table, with a circle or oval form- ed about the centerpiece by placing bunches of the berries side by side. is moat charming and appropriate. The scarlet-ash berries or the dull purple spheres _of the Virginia creeper will In the period between winter and early Spring. and during the midwin- ter months also, a potted plant forms a lovely centerpiece for a table. Care must be given to making even the flower-pot present an attractive up penance. irijGia ira 'iii TH; Gs g'me lat- ter present a specially tine appear- once. Enameled or porcelain pots into which the earthen jar can he slipped and concealed give tt pretty effect. Perhaps nothing ever afforded better results than a little outer case of crape-paper In muss-green color pulled out to form a. little trill around the top of the flower-pot. This. while ef- fectually covering the unsightly jar, blends pleasingly in color with the foliage and stems above. Vines possess great decorative pos- sibilities, and should be allowed to fall and turn as naturally as possible. Heal artists produce charming results by combining flowers, fruit and vines for table decoration. Most varieties of savory herbs can bebought powdered and ready for use, but the finest and purest are grown in our own gardens, dried, sifted and bottled for use. All mints contain a strong, aromatic, essential oil that is applied medicinal- Iy in a great variety of ailments. Pep. permint is adapted to stomach troubles and bergamut is used as apoultice, to flavour the bath, or to perfume the lin- en. It is said that mice have astrong aversion to all mint. All herbs should be collected for drying only when in flower. Parsley is the best known and most used ot any ot the seasoning herbs, always in a fresh and growing state, is very ornamental for garnishing, es- pecially the curled leaved variety. Sage is one of the most important, if not most used, ot savory herbs. It is easily propagated by slips or cuttings. In early times sage was the one all- important seasoning for the Thanks.. giving turkey of New England, but later, milder flavors, thyme or summer savory, have been used. Sweet mar- joram is preferred by many for the mildness of its aroma. A powerful oil is distilled from this, much used for medicinal purposes. Arragon could hardly be called a sweet herb, but a bitter one; torit is a species of wormwood, of which there are forty varieties found in the United States. It imparts a fine aroma to vinegar and it is a powerful tonic as well. LITTLE THINGS WORTH KN0WING. A ceiling blackened by smoke from a lamp or stove-pipe may be cleaned by wiping off with a flannel cloth dipped in strong borax water. Piano keys that have become yellow, or soiled, may be cleaned by spunging with alcohol. Egg stains on silver may be removed by rubbing with a wet rag dipped in table salt. Coffeepots, teapots, and the leaket- tle may be purified and sweetened by boiling out every week with boraz water. 7 Vii-Jliiés may be kept off woodwork and picture frames by washjng with water in which onions are boiled. - Brass utensils may bts kept bright and clean by rubbing with salt and vinegar. 0 Carpets may t.oe cleyyed and fresh- ened by spr.nkhng uith a mixture of salt and po'wdered borux before sweep- ing. ToAevive a dying tire quickly throw over the coals a teaspoourul of sugar. The table and floor oil cloth in kit- chen or dining-room may be kept clean and bright by wiping off once a week with hot water, to which a little pow- dered borax is added. l'nquestionably smoking had already been practised by the Indians for cen- turies when Columbus first reached those shores. It was with them to a great extent a form of religious cere- monial. Dr. Daniel G. Brinton, the famous ethnologist, thinks that it had its beginning in the blowing tube of the medical man. Ignorant savages are disposed to regard the human breath as possessing magical proper- ties, and it may be supposed that burn- ing leaves were introduced into the tube for the purpose of making the breathing visibie. The Indians smoked many kinds of plants such as sumac, red widow bark, and the leaves of the kinnikinnick or bear .berry, and to- bacco doubtless was a discovery result- mg from a selecnon of the fittest.

The quaimesl marriage customs we. vail among the people who live in the hills of Burundi and upon the borders of China called Kan-us. All court- ships are conducted at funerals-be- truthals and obaequies are dealt with together. When a Karen dies he or she is interred temporarily, or, it of great eabate, the remains are ttrut cre- mated, aha the email chest of teakwood into which the ashes are gathered is Lumen pro tern. The length of the in- terim between a Karen's first and sec- ond interment is determined by the number of urarriageauie girls and mar- lyms men there are in the village or ncigttoorltoolt at the tune of his ueath. “hen there are enough candidates of both when for matriruony--uub not be- fore-ttte great 1unerat-weauiug day to appointed.

Everyone at- tends on the great day and extraor- din.uy forms and ceremonies are gone through. ’lhe wooing men sing their Powsaits and the wooed maidtns sing 1n reply their act-eptances or reJections. Proposals, acceptances or rejections are one and all sung in a thin-tuned minor key and are attentively listened to and commented upon by the unaffect- euly interested tspectators. Then each would-be bridegroom sings, in turn, a 5010 it may be original or classic in both words and music. ‘But it must reiterate the names of the special girl whumhe is wootng, and would win; it must praise he: and repraise her, as Duty oriental poetry can praise wo- man. After the ceremonies are over all the engaged couples are married at once. A new departure in wedding customs hrsotrst been inaugurated in Baltimore. the occasion “as the marriage of Miss Adele Horwitz of that city to Francis B. titeverr,Jr., of Hoboken, NJ.

After the wedding Mrs. stevens' friends took up the tale of the astonishing ceremony and enlightened the townsfolk, and tilt btidttl carriage ran its devious way to the station with long streamers of white ribbon tied to every conceivable point. Placards large enough tor ev- 'ery one who ran to read announced ifrom sides and rear that the occupants twqre bride and groom . It has at last been settled. after a great many years of controversy, and discussion, where the bull given by the Durhess of itichmond was held on the night of the battle of Waterloo. This was probably the most famous halt in history. Thackerey has described how British ofiicerts danced there all night, and rode straight from the ball room to the battlefild. The Duke of Wei- lington is believed to have been there himself early in tho evening. For many years " was supposed that this great function was held in the house of the Duchess of Richmond at Brussels. But it has now been settled that the ball as a matter of thet took place in a coach house in the immediate neigh- borhood. The visitor to Brussels who inquires about the scene of the bull in- variably receives the reply “Cele u'ex- iste plus." True, the house of the Duke of Richmond was lung ago de- molished, but, its already explained, the dance took place in what is now acoach builder's depot. Byron's reference to “thtt high hall" is nothing more or less than poetical liCtnse. It is not known when women in Europe first began to ride, nor where the custom originated, nor what were the causes. But the heyday of wo- man's riding seems to hive been about the latter halt of the fourteenth con- tuiy, when mounted on their chargers, they rode with the knights to hunts and totttttaments. This lasted but a short time, for at the extreme end of the centuty worm n s riding was revol- utionized by the general adoption of the side saddle. This saddle, which was invented for a lame princess un- able to ride in any other manner, seems to have beers a variation of those saddles formerly used with the addi- tion of a pummel on the right hand side, and a second, shuter stirrup for greater tuwfty, and saddle Cloths, some feet in length, were Worn to protect the rider's clothes. The sidu'le of the time of Louis XIV. ind only one pom- mel; later a second was added. About the your 1830, by an accidtntal cir- cumstance, women's riding was again revolutionized. An Englishman made a wager to ride a steepleehase on a side saddle. A preliminary trial show- ed him the rashnrss of the attempt, so to minimize the danger by enabling him to sit safely the third pummel was invented. It was immediately adopted, and a three-pummel side saddle came into genu'al use. To-day, however, the best horsewomen ride with only two pummels, and often only one. The late Czar of Russia was an ar- dem admirer of cats, and on one occu- siun, when he was visiting the King of Denmark, he alarmed everyone in the palace by rushing out of the house at a very early hour, because from his windows he had seen a big black dog attacking his favorite black cat. Pope Pius IX., had a cat which shared his dinner for years-always coming in with the soup and sitting gravely op- posite his holiness in a chair placed there for him. The pope used to feed him from his own plate, and puss, at the end of the repast, walked out when the dishes were removed. When he died his master remarked: "One pope dies and another takes his piare. So it is with cats."
