sourest you have), three pints of vinegar, one 
pound of raisins, stoned and chopped, one 
pound of sugar, one half pound of fine salt, 
one-fourth pound of ginger, one-fourth pound 
of onions, two ounces of garlic, one half pound 
mustard seed (roasted), and a little Cayenne 
pepper. When all is mixed and cooked, bottle 
and seal. We must remember how fleeting is 
the season, and see to it that, like the boos, we 
store up supplies while the sunshine lasts, for 
the dreary daj s of Winter. I suppose every 
oue knows that beets and parsuips or carrots 
are nicer if drawn butter is put over them when 
cooked. 
HINTS FROM CORRESPONDENTS. 
Mbs. M., an excellent butter-maker, says 
that she never allows her sour cream to 
“whey,” that is, she churns it before the milk 
in the cream separates from the cream as 
whey. 
An “Economical Woman” disposed of her 
pieces of bread as follows: Place in the oven 
and dry until a light brown, then pound in a 
mortar or iron kettle until as fine as oatmeal. 
She says this is delicious in milk, and her 
children prefer it to bread or crackers. 
“MoTiiKn” takes grass Btains outof her chil¬ 
dren’s clothing in this way: Before the article 
is wet. the spots are well rubbed with butter 
and laid in the suu. A repetition of the pro¬ 
cess is sometimes necessary. 
Mbs. B. writes that she ironed her boy’s 
shirt-waists for a year or more, before she 
learned that it was easier and better to iron 
them ou the wrom/ side. 
Mbs. Economy claims that the reasons 
why so many cooks Tail in making an omelet 
is because the eggs are not sufficiently beaten. 
They should be beaten for 10 minutes at least 
— 15 are better. 
Mary B. says she has just finished a bed¬ 
spread and pillow slips which are very much 
admired. She lined a cheap, white lace cur¬ 
tain wi h old gold sateen and edged the slips 
with lace to match. 
DOMESTIC RECIPES. 
CORN CHOWDER. 
Cot enough green corn from the cob to fill 
a quart measure. The corn should be young, 
and do not cut too close to the cob. Pare and 
slice a quart of potatoes; skin and peel two 
good sized onions. Cut a half pound of fat 
pork into bits, fry until all the grease is out, 
take out and fry the onions in the fat. Put 
the corn and potatoes into fhe kettle in layers, 
and sprinkle each layer with salt, pepper and 
flour. Put the onion and fat into a strainer 
over the vegetables, gradually pour through 
three pints of boiling water, and with a spoon 
press through as much onion as possible. Re¬ 
move strainer, cover tightly aud boil gently 
for one-half hour. Mix three tablespoonfuls 
of flour smooth in a little milk, add a pint 
and a half more of rich milk, aud turn into 
the chowder. Taste aud see if seasoned 
enough, and add more if not. Split eight or 
ten butter crackers; put into the kettle, boil 
up and serve. 
PRESERVED PEACHES. 
I put them into a wire basket—used for 
frying and cooking potatoes—pluDge them in¬ 
to a kettle of boiling water for two minutes, 
then take out and rub off the skius. This will 
be found much easier and quicker thau peel¬ 
ing. Drop at once into a dish of cold water 
to keep their color. For nine pounds of fruit, 
use three pounds of sugar and a pint of water; 
make a sirup, and when boiling, add the 
whole poaches, a few at a time, aud cook until 
clear—they cook very quickly. As they are 
done, skim out into jars and cover with the 
sirup. Make air-tight. 
SPICED PLUMS. 
Make a sirup of three pouuds of sugar and 
one pint of vinegar to three pounds of the 
fruit; add a teaspoouful each of ground 
cloves, cinuamou, allspiee and mace. Frick 
the plums. Pour the hot sirup over them aud 
let stand until cold, drain off, re heat—and 
again turu over the plums. Let staud until 
the next dny, put fruit and sirup over the fire 
aud cook very slowly until the plums are soft. 
I urn into ajar aud cover tightly, mrs. m. c. 
COHN OMELET. 
A piut of cold boiled corn cut from the cob 
—it must be young—four beaten eggs, three 
spooufulsof milk, salt aud pepper. Put two 
tablespoonfuls of butter into a frying-pan, 
when hot turu in the beaten eggs, corn, milk 
and seasoning mixed together, and cook same 
as a plain omelet. A very good supper dish. 
MBS. I). SBAMON. 
CHEESE OMELET. 
Four eggs beaten vigorously, two table- 
spoonfuls of milk, salt. Put. a good spoonful 
of butter into apau, when hot—not burning_ 
turu in the mixture. Shake over not too hot 
a (ire until it begins to thicken, then sprinkle 
over it three or four tablespoon fula of grated 
cheese, run a knife under and between the 
sides of the pau and the omelet, fold aud turn 
on to a hot dish. mrs. k. s. k.

The Fight I Renewed 
against that feeling of indolence and de¬ 
bility, common to every one iu the 
spring and summer months, is of no avail 
without the aid of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. 
By its use, impurities are expelled from 
the blood, aud new life is infused into the 
Tt. stimulates and strengthens all 
the digestive and assimilative organs. 
C. A. Wheeler, Hotel Clitlord, Boston, 
Mass., says: “A few bottles of Ayer’s 
Sarsaparilla, taken in the spring, make me 
feel well and strong the whole year.” 
C. J. ftodemcr, 145 Columbia st., Cam- 
bridgeport, Mass., says: “I have gone 
through terrible sufl'ering from dyspepsia; 
but I have cured myself, and saved a 
great deal of money in doctors’ bills, by 
the use of 
strength and vigor follow the use of 
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Mrs. Ann H. Farns¬ 
worth, a lady 79 years old, So. Woodstock, 
Vt., writes: “After sufl'ering for weeks 
with prostration, I procured a bottle of 
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, aud before I had 
taken half of it my usual health returned.” 
Thos, M. McCarthy, 3G Winter st., Lowell, 
Mass., writes: “ I have been troubled, for 
years, with nervousness, and pains about 
ray heart, especially in the morning. I 
also suffered greatly from debility. I have 
been cured by Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and 
am now able to do very hard work.” 
Henry H. Davis, Nashua, N. H., writes: 
“I have found relief from that feeling of 
languidness, prevalent during the spring, 
by taking Ayer’s Sar-

■aparilla.” It will help you. 
' I have taken it for years.”
