A Dinner Menu.
As an Introduction to dinner a soup
with meat as a basis or with a bisque
of vegetables and milk is an admirable
aid to digestion and acts aa a spur
when one is too weary immediately to
assimilate more solid food. A roast
or a broil of beef, mutton or chicken,
following soup, accompanied by two
vegetables, sufficiently fills the bill
for an ordinary dinner. After this
may come a salad or a sweet, accord
ing to choice. In the daily menu these
are not necessary at the same time,
although when the dinner is a function
to which guests have been asked nei
ther of these courses can be omitted.

Ripe Tomato Preserves..
Select solid tomatoes, not too ripe
(yellow, pear-shaped are best). Scald
and peel carefully, prick with a needle
to prevent bursting, add an equal am
ount of sugar by weight and let He
over night. In the morning pour off
all the Juice into a preserving kettle,
and boll until it Is a thick syrup; add
tomatoes and boll carefully until they
look transparent, A piece or two of
root ginger may be added, or one
lemon to each pound of fruit. Slice
lemon thin.
Spiced Grapes.
Pick the grapes off the stems, sep
arate the skins in one dish from the
pulp In another, add a little water to
the skins and cook both ten minutes,
until, you can press the pulp through
a coarse sieve to strain out the seeds,
and add the skins to the pulp. Meas
ure this and to every seven pints allow
three and one-half pounds of sugar,
half a pint of grape Juice made by
boiling whole grapes to a pulp and
straining, and a half pint of cider vin
eger. Cook half an hour, then add one
teaspoonful of ground cloves and two
tablespoonsful of ground cinamon.
Cook until as thick aa desired and put
into stone Jars or glass cans. These
do not spoil easily and old cans which
do not fit tight may be used. Serve
with roasts. This may be made from
the wild grapes or the green Concord
or the Isabellas.

Notes.
When a woman wants to get rid of
her husband for an hour, she sends
him up sialfs to get something from
the pocket of her dress,
Milk as a beverage should be dilu
ted and then drank slowly, sipping a
little at a time. People who will fol
low that rule will find little trouble in
drinking it.
The soil to be used for potted plants
should be mixture of leaf mould from
the woods, sand and good luam, a lit
tle powdered charcoal being an Im
provement. Beaming, oily noses may often be
cured by bathing the entire face with
a weak solution of soda water. Use
common washing soda a bit about
;the size of a filbert to a quart of warm
I water. The circulation is usually at
j fault in these cases, and sensible wo
men with troublesome noses should
jtake plenty of exercise in the open air
,and eschew all highly spiced food.
Fn.en Peaches One qnart of pared
ripe peaches, cut fine; one quart of
water, one pint of sugar. When the
sugar is dissolved, freeze. A delicious
desert, yet extremely simple and in
expensive. Never use a large size pot for a
small rooted plant. If. you do the soil
will sour and plants sicekn and die.
Rancid creams become active poi
sons, and a woman cannot be too care-
1 ful about the purity and freshness of
I the cosmetics she uses. Many a
blotched and irritated skin is caused
jby Improperly laundered towels and
;wash rags and foul sponges.
