6 HOME MATTERs. BOUSEHOLD RECIPES—HOW TO COOK LIMA BEANS —SPICED PEACHES, ETC. As Entree specially designed to accompany roast pork ls made in this way: Peel as many potatoes as will cover the bottom ofa deep ple dish. Sprinkle a half a teaspoonful ot dried gage over them. Cut a small onion in thin slices, and spread them overthis. Add salt and pepper, and little lumps of butter, according to your taste. Cover the bottom of the dish with water, and bake in a moderate oven. Isexrexsive but pleasing lavender water is made by mixing the following ingredients to- gether: Three ounces of the essence of berga- mot, six drachms of the tincture of musk, one arachm of the oil of cloves, four drachms of the English oil of lavender; twelve ounces of rose water, and seven and one-half pints of alcohol. Of course a smaller quantity can be made if de- sired, preserving these proportions. AN Arretiztne Extree 1s made by taking cold boiled cabbage; chop it fine; for a medium sized pudding dish fall add two well beaten eggs, & tablespoonful of butter, three tablespoonfuls of ¢ream, with pepper and sait ad libitum. Bat- ter the pudding dish, put the cabbage in and bake until brown. This may be eaten cold, but it Is much better If served hot. It is especially good with roast pork, or pork chops. A Very ornamental stand-cover or small table cover is made by cutting a piece of felt the exact size and shape of the table-top. If the table has a scalloped or pointed top, the cover must have also. At each point or scallop put a plece of plush or velvet; a square block Is pref- erable to any other form, Blindstitch this to the felt, aud then around the edge put fangy slik stitches, and add a tassel to each point. To Coox lima beans in perfection they should boll or simmer gently in a covered vessel for half an hour, then remove the cover, and let the water boil and evaporate until but little Is left. Then add cream or milk with plenty of butter in it for the gravy. The old time notion that they could not be cooked without pork Is not a true one, though if one does not dislike the flavor, it ls economy to cook a small slice with say a quart of beans. A DeLicate entree is made by scraping ten small table carrots and putting them in a saucepan with three ounces of butter. Let them simmer gently: when you judge that they have cooked for fifteen minutes, add some salt, per, a very small onion chopped fine, and a ittle—say a teaspoonful—ot chopped parsley. When the carrots are tender, drain the butter from them and serve hot. Thisis a nice dish with roast beef. Wuite the days are pleasant, though cool, baby should be allowed to take his daily ride, that he may gradally accustom himself to the cold, but take the precaution to wrap him in flannel. ‘+Flannel next the skin is a saving or- dinance,” an old physician said once, and truly it was a wise saying. Now, early as it is by the almanac and calendar. but not by the tem- perature, the boys and girls should put on their woollen stockings. Tue Rueser rings used to assist in keeping the alr from fruit cans sometimes become so dry and brittle as to be almost useless. They can be restored to anormal condition, usually, by letting them lie in water In which you have put alittle ammonia. Mix in this proportion: one part ammonia and two parts water. Some- times they do not need to lie in this more than five minutes, but frequently a half hour is needed to restore their elasticity. A Detictovs Cutcken Soup is made by cutting up one chicken and putting it in your kettle with nearly two quarts of water, a teaspoonful of salt, and a little pepper. When about half done add two tablespoonfuis of barley or of Tice. When this is done remove the chicken from the soup, tear or cut part of the breast into small pieces, and add to the soup with a cup of cream. The rest of the chicken may be reserved for salad, or for chicken croquettes. Every one knows how difficult it is to in- duce a patient to take cod-liver oil, and how the taste is abhorred by most people. A per- fectly simple way to prepare it is to drop the desired dose into a little glass of cold water; the oll will form a globule that is easily swallowed. Take a swailow of cold water; then drink Tupidly from the glass, keep the mouth closed tightly for a minute, and when you open It you will be surprised to find that no unpleasant taste is left in the mouth. Tue O:p question frequently comes up at this season of the year in regard to the glazed, or unglazed flower-pot for the sittiug-iocm. The best authorities say that in the dry alr of our Fooms a plant that requires a good deal of water fer health and beauty does better in a glazed Pot, as the water will not evaporate so readily, and if the plant is forgotten for a day is not 80 Kikely to suffer to become entirely dry; and the reverse is true as to the unglaze ot, though for general use the glazed is preferable. AX EXceLLent War to preserve ripe tomatoes is first to peel them, then weigh them and add to them as much sugar as you have of the peeled tomatoes. To this quantity allow the juice of three lemons. Cut upthe tomatoes and let them stand all night with the sugar scattered over them. In the morning pour off this syrup and boil it, skim it until it is clear. After-this put the tomatoes in the syrup and let them simmer gently for twenty-five minutes, then take them out with a strainer of some kind, put them ina Jar, and after the juice is as thick as you care to have it pour it over the fruit and can or geal it in Jars. Sricep Pxacnes are delicious: first pare the peaches; this should be done with a very sharp knife so that just as little of the peach as possi- bie will be wasted; then prepare a syrup of vinegar, sugar and spice; cinnamon and a very little cloves are the best liked for this purpose; let this come to a boll and pour over the fruit. This should be repeated for two mornings,unless the peaches are hard, If they are hard it is better to put them into the hot syrup and let them boil for about three minntez, but not lenger. They may be canned at once, and will be better in two months from the time they are made than at first. Potato Pancakes make a most excellent dish for supper. Serve with the same embellish- ments in the way of pickles, sauces as you | would do were the dish you were offering fried oysters. Grate a dozen inedium sized potatoes, after peeling them washing thoroughly. Add the yelks of th heaping table- seem too dry, a 2 spoonful of flour, and if the little milk will do to thin them, With a large tea- spoonful of salt, and lastly the whites of the three exss beaten stiff, and thoroughly beaten in with the potatoes. Heat your griddle and put butter and lard in equal proportions on it, and fry the cakes in it until they are brown. Make thei a third larger than the ordinary size of the pancake. —_——__<e+_____ A New Kindof Annexation. From the St. Louis Republican. Some American newspapers are choking with Fage at the annexation speech made by Premier Smith of British Columbia at the recent banquet on the steamer North Pacific. The British offic- tals of Victoria were invited on board the ves- eel to meet the representatives of American Journals who accompanied the Villard excursion, and In the course of the festivities the colonial premier, Mr. Smith, made the offensive speeches, As we have remarked, {t was an annexation speech, but not of the sort of annexation speech- we are in the habit of listening to. “The time will come,” said he, “when necessity will cause the annexation of part of the Pacific coast A ROUND MILLION WASTED. ‘The Career of a Spendthrift Who Dis- sipated a Million Dollars in Three Years. Some few months ago, says the Leadville Democrat, there arrived in Leadville a young man named Julius Haas, who was only recently from abroad. Neither his actions nor his de- meanort denoted that he had any money, present or prospective. He took up his residence at the La Plata mine, with Mr. Otto Andrear. The other day he went to Denver to prepare for his return home, where an inheritance of 17,500,- 000 marks, or $4,375,000. now awaits his claim. The life of the milliomaire contains a wealth of romance and much of the practical adversity which usually befalls the prodigal son. Dissipation at home and in this country, a continual draining from his father’s riches, finally left him, to ail intents and purposes, a Re in a strange land. His father wasaheavy inker, the partner ot the Rothschilds anda landowner at Carlsruhe, the capital of Baden, one of the German states. In his early college days young Haas began to exhibit a dispo- sition of extravagance and __ recklessness. There he commenced a gambling carger which only ended in his destitution in Leadville. The wine-cup, beautiful women, and song had their fescinations for him. One who knows him says that Haas spent 100,000 franes in Marsellles and 100,000at Baden, which extravagance induced his father to send him to America. He had acredit of 50,000 marks. He dissipated large sums in New York, Phila- delphia and Cincinnati, and sank $10,000 ina Louistiile sporting house. His father refused to have anything more to do with him, and late- ly he has been in prison in St. Louls. Not long ago Mr. Andrear wrote to Haas’ father, stating the son’s circumstan2es, and, in response, was fhstructed to take good care of him, but not to give him any money. A few days ago the Illi- nois Staats Zeitung. containing a notice of the father’s death and an estimate of the immense fortune which he left to his children, was re- ceived by young Haas. Yesterday Mr. Andrear gave him sufficient money tor his entertainment at Denver until such time as he could establish his credit with a bank, or by cablegram advices make a loan to return to Germany. It is estimated that Haas expended $1,000,000 in three years. ee LONGSTREET AT A FAIR. ‘The Old Soldicr Makes a Speech. ‘From the Chicago Tribune. The old white-whiskered, white-haired man, dressed in black broadcloth, with a boutonniere in his lapel—the man for whom Robert E. Lee always asked when thg rebel lines were waver- ing—stood up. Turning his back on the great gathering across the course. he faced the select and distinguished coterie in the judges’ stand, and said in a low tone: . “Mr. President, Ladies and Gentlemen: { am indebted to the officers of this agricultural so- ciety for this honor to-day, and I thank you for it.” Then, turning to his audience, he said, in a voice which failed to reach very tar: ‘Far away from my southern home I have come to enjoy this occasion. We are here to prepare a way whereby we may become a more homoge- neous people. The soldiers of the north and of the south were the first to bring about this blessing of good will. After the war was over I went to Washington, where I visited my old friend and schoolmate, Gen. Grant. He asked -me if I was ready to be am- nestied, and when I told him yes he gave me a strong letter to President Johuson, and I called on him the next day. After a long talk he put me off until the next day. Then there was another long talk, and finally President Johnson said to me: ‘There are three men in this country who can never enjoy the benefits of amnesty—Jeff Davis, R. E. Lee und yourself.’ 1 said to him, after thanking him for placing me in the distinguished-company hedid: ‘Mr. Presi- dent, those who are forgiven most love the most.’ With that I went back to my home in Georgia. A year after a petition for me went up, and Gen. Grant and Gen. Pope went in my behalf in person to see it through, and they did. I felt that [ had not loved the Union betore as I did then, and again I said: ‘Those who are forgiven most love the most.’ [Cheers.] I felt the influences of that tender cord which had been touched—by the people of the north—by its women.” Hert Gen. Longstreet hesitated and faltered. Turning his back on the audience again he taced the ladies in the judges’ stand, and, looking at them a few seconds, began in a very low tone: ‘*How can I, a poor soldier, reared in and accustomed to the rough life of camp, express myself while looking into the bright eyes I see. I fail to express—I do not know how to speak—I—[the hesitancy was be- coming painful, and the audience back of him could not divine what he was doing or éaying, while those in the stand looked at him stead- fastly]—I—I can only say—in the language of my old commander, ‘I must surrender.” He sat down at once, a few cheers went up, and as the sun was beating on his white hairs a lady offered him her sunshade, which he held above @UR BANQUETING AND THAT OF OUB ANCESTORS. ‘The Decorative Splendor. ‘From Harper's Bazar. When the table is set with lace and damask, engraved crystal, silver, candles, and banks of flowers, with satin bills of fare tralling their tin- sel fringes from little brass bannerets, and all repeated in mirrors, the dinner-givers of the present time seem to think they have done the utmost there is to do in the way of the decora- tive splendor of the banquet, and the rest goes without saying, a rational and refined feast cost- ing trom ten to fifty dollars a plate. What would these worthy and generous hosts have ead, then, at the feasts of Vitellius, who, in seven months, spent on his table a sum equiv- alent to thirty-five million doilars, at a time, too,when money was more valuable than It is to- day! Lucullus also must have been able to give them | eh pay inthe art of banqueting, when he neverhad a supper in his room of Apollo at a less cost than eighty thousand dollars. And was it not Apicius—one of the three—who had adish made of the brains of five hundred os- triches, and the tongues of five thou- sand birds that had been taught to speak? There was in old Roman cook inthe days of these gourmets and gourmands who, with a vanity unrivalled by any ‘other writer in history, saye and except M. Ude, de- clared: ‘‘Assuredly I have discovered ambrosia. Had the dead but the faculty of smelling, the fragrance of my compositions should speedily re- store them to health and strength.” Dvubtless this discovery of his was washed down with old Falernian or with smoky Greek wines; and in the eight or ten delicate varieties of bottled sun- shine and dew, whose clusters ot dainty glasses ornament the table as much as the flowers: do, our later diners have the advantage. But THE MEDIEVAL BANQUET was a very different thing from the anctent ban- quet, which, with all its prodigality, was a thing of art beside the other. For the media- val banquet was a perpetual effort for the pro- digious, and the men and women who feasted at it might have had something about them of the bestial and the god combined had their ap- petites really required anysuch feeding. The most poetical thing we have ever come acrossin accounts of their festivity, it it can be calied poetical, was the pillar erected at the corona- tion of Cocur de Lion, a hollow marble pillar on steps, and on the top a gilt eagle, under whose claws, in the capital of the pillar, were divers kinds of wines gushing forth at different places all the day long. of which all who came, were they ever so poor and abject, were at liberty to drink. At another feast, that given at the mar- riage of Lionel, Duke of Clarence, the third son of the third Edward, to Violantis, the daughter of Gelasius II., Duke of Milan—a feast one of whose guests was Petrarch—there were thirty courses, and between every course won- derful presents were distributed. “There were in one only course seventy goodly horses, adorned with silks and silyer furniture; and in the others, silver vessels, falcons, hounds, armour for horses, costly coates of mayle, breast- plates glittering of massive steele, helmets and corslets decked with costly crestes, apparell distinct with costly jewels, souldiers’ girdles, and lastly certain gemmes by curious art set in gold, and of purple and cloth of gold for men’s apparell in great abundance. And such was the sumptuousness of that banquet, that the meates which were,brought from the table would sufficiently have served ten thousand men.” Compared with this wholesale gift business,the preents, however delectable, distributed as favors at recent germans and dinners must make, after all, but a beggarly array. THE PEACOCK AS A DECORATOR. At all banquets, both of the elder and of the middle ages, the peacock was a favorite piece of decoration. Sometimes it was quite coyered with leaf-gold, as if that were an improve- ment upon its brilliant dyes, and with a bit of linen in its mouth, dipped in spirits and set on fire, it was served on a golden dish by the lady of highest rank, attended by her train of maidens and followed pene, and was set be- fore the most distinguished guest. This was a performance of great state and ceremony, and the bird was held in so far sacred that oaths couldbetakenonitshead. Oneof the old turn- spit-directors gives us full information as to another and certainly handsomer way of serv- Ing the creature, although one may be doned for querying how it was contrived r= ward to carve him: “‘At a feeste roiall pecokkes shall be dight on this manner. Take and flee off the skynne with the fedurs, tayle, and nekke, and the hed thereon; then take the skyn with all the fedurs and lay hit on a table abrode, and strawe thereon grounden comyn; then take the pecokke and roste hym, and endore [baste] him with rawe yolkea of ezges; and when he is rosted take hym off and let hym cole awhile, and take and sowe hym in his skyn, and gilde his combe, and so serve hym forthe with the Jast cours.” But whatever may be thought of the decora- tion of the tables as in comparison with those of our own era, or of the character of the prodigal im {he remainder of the sitting. -—_______ YOUNG MEN WHO USE COSMETICS. Combating Tan by Paint and Powder— Hiding Dissipation Marks Beneath Pink and White Tints. ‘From the Cleveland Herald. While a reporter stood talking witha drug clerk yesterday afternoon a rosy-cheeked young man entered the store, and leaning over the counter whispered: “Give me two boxes of rouge. Sister ordered it, and I came very near forgetting all about it.” The clerk produced the article and handed itover to the young man, who slyly tucked it into his pocket and strode out. “Did you notice that young man?” asked the clerk. ‘Well, he said he wanted that powder for sister. That’s all right; but as I happen to know, the stuff will go into his bureau drawer and be called forth only when he wants it to adorn his face. Don’t be astonished,” he con- tinued, noticing the surprised look upon the Teporter’s countenance at the revelation. “We drug clerks could unfold alist of mysterious doings that would almost be incredible,” he continued, as he adjusted his prettily colored Teck scarf by the aid of amammoth velvet in- cased mirror on the counter. “The practice of painting and powdering the faces of young men is very much more common than any one unac- quainted with the tricks of the gilt-edged youths of Cleveland would imagine. Five years ago good clothes would hide almost any defect. Countenances worn haggard and pale by hard work and late hours; noses made crimson by the gratification of young men’s bivulous inclina- tions, and faces tanned by too much exposure tothe sun during the snmmer vacation were ee in the desire to wear the very latest style of coat and hat. Then in an evil hour some effeminate individual conceived the start- Itng idea of burying these facial defects beneath cosmetic compount The idea was a catching one. The demand for Poa aad white powders began to increase. Young men who were never known to be obliging to their relatives before began frequenting our stores and asking for rouge and the other paints for their ‘sisters.’ We have sold sometimes thirty boxes of these cosmetics inaday. At the beginning of the queer craze the young men were not very par- ticular as to the style or variety of the beauti- fyer so long as they thought they could by its ‘use rival in beauty some other fair-cheeked Au- gustus.

THE BIRDS AND FROGS. Opposite this 1s to be a castle similarly manu- factured, with turrets and battlements, and drawbridges and “percullises.” Between the two is a stug, compounded in like fashion again, with an arrow in his side and his body full of claret. Two ples thén are baked, and after baking the lids are lifted, and one Is filled with live frogs and the other with live birds, Then, all being set at table, the trains of ler are lighted, and the castle fires ‘upon tl ip, and the ship returns the fire, and the arrow is plucked from the stag, whereon the claret flows like hife-blood from the wound. “All danger being seemingly over by this time, you may sup- pose caf will desire to see what isin the Pies; when, lifting first the lid off one Ple, out skips some Frogs, which makes the Ladies to skip and shreek, and after the other Pie, whence comes out the Birds, who. by a natural instinct flying at the light, will pat out the can- dles; so that what with the flying Birds and skipping Frogs, the one above, the other be- neath, will cause much delight and pleasure to the whole company. At length the Candles are lighted, and a quet brought in; the musick sounds; and every one with much delight and content rehearses thelr actions in the former passages.” Certainly people who were | igen by such tomtoolery as this would think very poorly of our tame and quiet manner of ministering to the senses, and were best regaled by mighty sides of venison, by oxen roasted whole, and by copious washes of strong beer; their coarsened palates could have seen no difference between Chateau Yquem or sparkling Moselle and ony diet, drink. -We a not reach the mad point of luxury of Lu- lus and Aplcius, although we are fain tosee no luxury in the brains of peacocksand the tongues of nightingales, but, on the con- trary, a vulgar brutality; but we have certainly improved upon the ways of our own more im- mediate ancestors in abolishing powder: trains and jumping frogs from the tab! ‘Then and Now.

Quickly glancing toward her husband, she asked, at s certain point in the article, “John, what is the germ theory? ™ “The germ theory—well—y oe look in the ency- commonly termed bacteria, whose power of reproduction, under favorable conditions, is eo great that a single germ. will increase which it can be said to be absent, unless it be from fire or air filtered through cotton-batting in numerous layers. A single drop of water containing a germ, put into water boiled, filtered and thus freed from will grow murky in a day or two from the develop- opment of new germs, When it is considered that it requires about forty billion to weigh one- grain, some remote idea can "be had of the capacity ofgerm reproduction, Professor John Tyndall, in a ate work, elaborately treats of the influence of germs n the propagation of disease and charges upon this cause, the inception and development of very many of the ail- ments most injurious to man. Professor Pasteur, an eminent French savant, has carried his original and beautiful experiments 0 far,and from them deduced such practical results as very greatly to diminish the number of cases of anthrax among sheep and chicken cholera among fowls,—proving his theory that these are essentially and actually germ diseases. ‘These germs are carried into the system through the lungs, the stomach and possibly the skin, but through the Inngs chiefly. Once in the system, they begin to develop, poisoning the blood, invading the nerve centers, disturbing the func- tional activity of the great organs of the body and in- ducing general impairment of the vital processes. ‘These are the cause of fevers, rheumatism, Bright dis- ease of the kidneys, pneumonia, blood poisoning, liver disease, diphtheria and many other ailmenta, Lately Professor Koch, a famous German physician, has proved that consumption of the lungs is due to this csuse—the ‘Presence of « peculiar germ, ‘When the circulation is bounding, the nerves elastic and the system all aglow with life and ener#y, the germs seem to develop poorly, ifatall. But with weakened nerves, poor digestion or malassimilation of food or lowering of vitality from any cause, s change ensues, and in this impoverished and weakened fluid the germ finds a genial home and develops until symptoms of dis- ease are distinctly manifested. This is seen {rt the every- day experience of all. The healthy man resists the influ- ences around him and does not take cold, while those ‘whose systems have become weak from any cause readily contract colds. This is on the same principle as the germ theory. ‘The germs attack any weakened spot in the body, and fixing themselves upon it, begin their props- gation. It is plain therefore that it is only by fortifying the weak portions of the body that,the germs of disease can be resisted and driven from the system. But this has proved almost an impossibility heretofore, and it has been the study of physicians for years how best to acoom- plish it. Within the past few years, however, a prepara- tion has been attracting great attention, not only throughout the entire land, but among the medical pro- feasion and scientists generally, which is based upon this theory, and it may safely be sald, no remedy has ever been found which can so successfully place the system in a condition to resist the germs of disease as Warner's Safe Cure. This article is unquestionably the best and most efficient that has ever been discovered for this purpose, and— “John, say, John? docs the encyclopedia advertise ‘Warner's Safe Cure!” “I should not wonder, dear, it's a grand remedy, and that pamphlet we recetved the other day stated that Dr, Gunn, of the United States Medical College endorsed it. At all events the wonderful cures it is accomplishing en- title it to be honorably noted smong the great discover- des of the present century.” ‘However the facts above stated may be, the trath re- mains, that the germ theory of disease is the correct one, and that the great remedy mentioned ia the only one which has ever beon found that can put the system in a condition to kill these germs ‘before they obtain a hold upon the body, and undermine the life. thei Tue New York Tums.
