The  Rural  Patterns 
Mending  Agateware 
I  uotice  inquiry  for  methods  of  mend¬ 
ing  agateware.  I  find  it  quite  satisfac¬ 
tory,  inexpensive  and  not  much  trouble 
to  mend  with  putty,  then  put  in  the  oven 
and  bake  three  days.  X.  s.  B. 
I  have  mended  dish  pans,  kettles,  dou¬ 
ble  boilers  and  basins  of  agateware  with 
good  results  in  the  following  manner; 
Cover  the  hole  with  good  putty,  then 
place  in  the  oven  and  bake  slowly  three 
or  four  hours,  until  the  putty  is  thor¬ 
oughly  hardened.  m.  e.  n. 
You  ask  for  light  on  the  subject  of 
mending  agateware.  I  have  done  more  or 
less  tinkering  with  the  enameled  ware 
used  in  our  kitchen,  and  unless  the  holes 
were  too  large  I  have  not  found  it  more 
difficult  than  mending  tinware.  Of 
course  solder  will  not  stick  to  the  enamel, 
but  it  will  stick  to  the  metal  base  after 
the  enamel  is  removed.  If  the  hole  is 
small,  chip  off  the  enamel  around  it,  ex¬ 
posing  the  bright  metal  on  a  space  as  large 
as  a  dime  perhaps.  This  is  easily  done  by 
lightly  tapping  it  with  a  hammer.  Pol¬ 
ish  with  sand  paper,  then  proceed  as 
in  ordinary  soldering,  using  soldering 
fluid  to  make  the  solder  stick.  If  the 
hole  is  large  and  the  sloder  runs  through, 
hold  a  wet  cloth  against  the  utensil  be¬ 
low  the  hole.  Of  course  the  rivet  has 
one  advantage  over  the  solder;  it  will 
not  melt  if  the  housekeeper  carelessly  al¬ 
lows  the  kettle  to  burn  dry  on  a  hot

Their  country,  like  that  good  knight? 
In  stately  line  stand  America’s  kings. 
And  greater  than  all  are  three: 
George  Washington,  Lincoln  and  old 
King  Hen — 
Of  the  printers’  guild  was  he! 
And  every  boy  who  reveres  her  soil, 
Is  heir  to  the  throne  and  crown ; 
And  his  the  joy  to  uphold  her  flag 
Should  jealousy  pluck  it  down. 
Emblazoned  forever  in  starry  light 
Are  the  paths  of  the  living  dead; 
What  one  of  us  would  not  follow  them 
With  sounding  and  valiant  tread? 
And  when  our  Mother  demands  her  sons 
To  the  summons  shall  come  the  cry.

Alice  Brown  in  Harpers'  Young  People, 
Oi’R  little  question  about  mending 
holes  in  agateware  has  resulted  in  an¬ 
swers  innumerable  from  all  parts  of  the 
T’nited  States.  Evidently  this  was  no 
problem  to  a  great  many  readers.  There 
are  some  questions,  however,  that  do  not 
meet  with  such  voluminous  response,  and 
one  of  these  still  awaiting  an  answer  is 
a  plan  for  a  homemade  laundry  drier, 
that  will  dry  the  family  wash  satisfactor¬ 
ily  during  bad  weather.

Salad  Dressing. — Put  in  double  boil¬ 
er  one  tablespoonful  butter,  one  of  flour, 
three  teaspoons  sugar,  one  teaspoon  salt, 
one  teaspoon  mustard,  dash  of  Cayenne 
pepper.  Mix  together  and  stir  from  bot¬ 
tom  until  it  boils,  then  add  one  beaten 
egg  and  one  scant  cup  milk,  (or  inilk 
and  water).  Cook  until  thick  and 
smooth.  Last,  add  three-quarters  cup 
vinegar,  put  in  a  little  at  a  time.  This 
is  not  an  expensive  rule,  aud  keeps  well

Sai race  rolls  are  very  nice  made  as 
follows:  Prepare  dough  as  for  milk  bread, 
and  let  it  rise  over  night.  In  the  morn¬ 
ing  roll  out  thin,  cut  out  with  a  biscuit 
cutter,  and  in  the  center  of  each  put  a 
roll  of  sausage  meat  the  size  of  a  large 
hickorynut.  Fold  the  dough  over  and 
pinch  the  edges  closely  together:  let  rise 
a  short  time,  and  then  bake.  Serve  hot 
or  cold.  Sometimes  ordinary  biscuit 
dough  is  used  in  this  way,  but  the  raised 
dough  is  nicer.  Sausage  rolls  are  nice 
to  pack  in  a  basket  lunch,  and  they  also 
make  a  hearty  supper  dish.

The  busiest  spot  in  New  York,  where 
most  people  pass  to  and  fro  every  week¬ 
day.  is  down  on  Newspaper  Row.  the 
corner  of  Park  Row  aud  Frankfort 
Street.  Between  the  hours  of  8.20  a.  m. 
and  6.30  p.  m.  the  daily  average  of  pe¬ 
destrians  counted  at  this  corner  is  296.- 
200,  and  of  vehicles  6,700.  This  does  not 
include  passengers  on  trolley  cars.  The 
police  did  the  counting  with  hand  comp¬ 
tometers.  Such  counting  has  been  done 
at  a  variety  of  points  in  the  city,  with 
the  idea  of  regulating  traffic.  One  of  the 
greatest  improvements  in  traffic  regula¬ 
tions  of  the  past  year  has  been  the  use 
of  block  signals  on  Fifth  Avenue,  simi¬ 
lar  in  principle  to  those  on  railways, 
which  have  added  immeasurably  to  the 
safety  of  pedestrians.

One  of  the  laundry  wagon  seen  about 
the  streets  of  New  York  bears  the  name 
“Laundry  for  the  Prevention  of  Cruel¬ 
ty  to  Linen.”  Sometimes  even  the  domes¬ 
tic  laundry  work  is  not  done  with  any 
idea  of  avoiding  cruelty  to  linen,  as  we 
may  judge  by  the  torn  edges,  frayed  gar¬ 
ments  and  missing  buttons.  Sometimes 
it  is  the  desire  to  cleanse  by  main 
strength,  and  lack  of  knowledge  as  to 
gentler  methods,  that  induces  this.  We 
must  realize  that  all  stains  cannot  be 
taken  out  in  one  and  the  same  way.  and 
that  a  careful  laundress  must  be  some¬ 
thing  of  a  chemist.  There  are  cases  where 
a  plunge  into  hot  suds  sets  a  stain  in- 
iis  soon  as  they  become  Americanized,  are 
tempted  to  sell  the  handmade  household 
wares  of  their  old  home.  There  are  Rus¬ 
sian  samovars.  Turkish  coffee  pots,  tall 
seven-branched  candlesticks,  synagogue 
lamps,  and  a  host  of  small  wares.  As  the 
little  shop  has  moderate  rent  and  no  up¬ 
town  style  to  cater  to,  prices  are  very 
much  lower  than  in  a  more  pretentious 
locality.  Very  attractive  brass  candle¬ 
sticks  of  solid  metal  cost  from  75  cents 
a  pair  up;  trays  of  hammered  copper 
are  from  65  cents  up;  Turkish  after-din¬

from  $1.25  up.
