FOREST AND STREAM,

Extravagance of American House¬ 
keepers.^ —Mr. Delmonico, talking about 
entr'es, says that Americans ought to copy 
" the French method of utilizing small hits 
of raw meats and fowls, and of recooking 
all kinds of cold joints and pieces of cooked 
meat which remain, day by day, from every 
dinner in almost every family.” The suc¬ 
cess of such dishes depends mainly on the 
sauce, which is best made from broth. The 
following is his recipe for a favorite sauce : 
■ * 1 Take an ounce of ham or bacon, cut it up 
in small pieces, and fry in hot fat. Add an 
onion and carrot, cut up, thicken with flour, 
then add a pint or quart of broth, accord¬ 
ing to quantity desired, season with pepper 
and salt, and any spice or herb that is rel¬ 
ished (better though without the spice), aud 
let simmer for an hour, skim carefully, and 
strain. A wine-glass of any wine may be 
added, if liked.” Cold roast or broiled beef 
or mutton may be cut into small squares, 
fried brown in butter, and then gently 
stewed in the sauce about described. Mr. 
Delmonico describes croquettes as the at¬ 
tractive French substitute for American 
hash, and tells howto make them : “Veal, 
mutton, lamb, sweet breads, almost any of 
the lighter meats, besides cold chicken and 
turkey, can be most deliciously turned into 
croquettes. Chop the meat very fine. Chop 
up an onion, fry it in an ounce of butter, 
add a tablespoonful of flour. Stir well, and 
then add the chopped meat and a little 
broth, salt, pepper, little nutmeg. Stir for 
two or three minutes, then add the yolks 
of two eggs, and turn the whole mixture 
into a dish to cool. When cold, mix well 
together again. Divide up into parts for 
the croquettes : roll into the desired shape 
in bread crumbs- Dip in beaten egg, then 
into bread crumbs again, and fry crisp, 
a. bright golden color. Any of these cro¬ 
quettes may he served plain or with to¬ 
mato sauce or garniture of vegetables. 
Out-Door Games. —Physical exercise can 
he, and often is, carried to excess; but every 
one should practice it within reasonable 
limits. A gentleman should not only know¬ 
how to fence, to box, to ride, to shoot, to 
swim, and to play at hillards, he must also 
know how- to carry himself, and how to 
dance, if he would'enjoy life to the utter¬ 
most. A good carriage is only attained by 
the help of a drill-master, and boxing must 
also he scientifically taught. A man 
should make himself able to defend him¬ 
self from ruffins, and to defend woman 
from them also. What fencing and drill¬ 
ing are to a man, dancing and calisthenic 
exercise are to a young woman. Every 
lady should know how to dance, whether 
she intends to dance in society or not; the 
better the physical training, the more grace¬ 
ful and self-possessed she will he. Swim¬ 
ming, skating, archery, or games of lawn- 
tennis and croquet, riding and driving, all 
help to strengthen the muscles, and to take 
the young out into the open air, which 
makes these games desirable. The subject 
is one that too much cannot be said of by 
parents, teachers, and educational reform¬ 
ers. Such training should begin in chid- 
hood. 
Many people who boast of being “’plain” 
and “ blunt” are merely coarse ana boorish. 
Such fier-lons are constantly inflicting 
wounds, which neither time nor medicine 
can ever heal.

Mr. Charles Folsom, Agent for the Stock <S Morris patent Glass Ball Trap, Wo?ratiinmijcre 8tree£?N. V. 
Snt—You ask the opinion of the Peoria Shooting Club on the above trap, which is now used ex¬ 
clusively on our grounds. We give it decided preference over all. It delivers the bolls with vary¬ 
ing velocity, thus more closely Imitating the natural flight of a bird, and in this point it. hasno com¬ 
petitor. We have yet to see its equal for any of the following qualities:—Simplicity of construc¬ 
tion, rapidity and certainty of action, durability, lightness, and portability. It works perfectly and is 
so simple,; it does not break down or get out of order at, all. Wo recommend It in highest terms for 
the use of clubs, and alRO for amateurs for private practice. For those who would like frequent 
practice on their own premises, without tho need of costly and tiresome preparation, it fully meets 
a long-felt want, as it weighs but; four pounds, and can be set up ready for use anywhere in two 
minutes. Tt. was to-day tested on our grounds for power and speed, when it threw fifty-nine (59) 
glass-balls an average distance of twenty-live yards froma single cup in sixty seconds, keeping two 
balls constantly In the air at the same time. The new model is a decided improvement upon the 
old. We wish you success in Us introduction, and think its use will do quite as much to popularize 
glass ball shooting as anything that has yet been found. Yours, &c..
