Place in a double boiler ami let it cook till 
clear. Then stir in the beaten yelks of four 
eggs, a cup of sugar and whatever flavoring 
is prepared, stir till it thickens to a soft cus¬ 
tard. 
Part of the family being away, the younger 
members wanted to make some butternut 
taffy. It was done by stirring brown sugar 
with a little white vinegar, and boiling till it 
set quickly on ice. The nimble Augers of the 
children peeled some of the butter-nuts, and 
the taffy strung out white and pretty when 
they pulled it. This sort of candy is purer and 
simpler than any to be bought, w hile it pleases 
the. little folk to help in the making. 
We have some white corn flour, and it makes 
delicious muffins by using three eggs aud a 
cup of sugar, and a pint of milk in two small 
cupfuls of the flour with a little baking pow¬ 
der. It is mixed just like a light cake, the last 
thing added being half a cupful, or a little 
more wheat flour. We cook in muftiiu rings 
or gem pans. 
Eggs have been scarce till lately, aud we 
made a very good molasses cake without them, 
by mixing together a cup of molasses, one- 
fourth of a cup of butter, half a cup of sour 
milk, two scant cups of flour, a teaspoouful of 
ginger, and a teaspoonful of soda which is de- 
solved in the sour milk, The flour is put in 
last, aud it is baked in shallow' pans. The 
children quite appreciate it, though one of 
them said it had an egg—less taste.

Is frequently an indication of a Scrofulous 
taint In the system. Ayer’s Sarsaparilla 
purifies the blood, and thus restores health 
to the affected membranes. It also stops 
the nauseous catarrhal discharges, and 
prevents the infection from reaching the 
lungs and stomach. Catarrh should be 
treated as a blood disease. 
I suffered for years from chronic 
Catarrh. My appetite was very poor, and 
1 felt miserably. None of the remedies I 
took afforded me any relief until I com* 
ineneed using Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, of 
which l have now taken five bottles. 
The catarrh has disappeared, and 1 am 
growing strong and stout; my appetite 
has returned, and my health is fully re¬ 
stored.—Susan L. W. Cook, U09 Albany st.,

NAPKINS. 
I saw a very pretty set of napkius at a 
neighbor's house lately, and as the idea was a 
novel one I send it to the readers of the Ru¬ 
ral. They were made from a home-spun 
linen sheet well worn in the middle. Napkins 
of the desired size were cut from the edges 
and fringed, pretty designs of fruits and 
flowers were outlined in one corner with red 
marking cotton, using the etching stitch. A 
worn table-ukith might be made over in the 
same way. If wanted for tea napkins, the 
Kate Greenaway designs are pretty, m. b. s.
