"A piece," he shyly said, still looking down, With shadowy smile, "of my dear mother's gown; The gown slie wore the day she said to me, 'If you are good, not long we'll parted be.' It gives me comfort when I look at it."

Margaret Eytingc EASTER ROSEB. Easter roses, fresh and fair, Waft their perfumo on the air; Lenten-tide, with sombre guise, Departs, but 'neath it darkness lies Serene and calm fair Easter-tide; 'Neath her delights no miid'-n hides Her healthy love for modest lover. There's something in the very air Which makes the loved one to discover , A fact once known, so passing fair That making love (at all times lenient) Is not at all times cjuito convenient; But just at this fair E .ster time Tie never then too late to rhyme. And if a friend your love construe, Why never, never, then you'll rue, But boldly pluck the fliwer of youth Whilst yet there's time; Live dies forsooth 1 Max Maurice. II OOOD BREAD. 11 No one nrticle of food is of bo much jij importance ns bread, and yet how much poor, neavy ureaci is consumed ami now many cross people are mado so by getting dispepsia from eating poor bread and the hot salaratus biscuit that take the place Iof bread too often on the family table. No education is complete without know ing how to make sweet, wholesome bread. Tho flour must be good or one cannot have success ; then the yeast must bo lively. We are now speaking of hop vcast bread. "Salt Rising" bread is another thing and we think it most dell cious bread, when well made; but it is not considered healthy, as the lightness is produced by the decomposition of cer tain constituents, while hop bread is light ened from fermentation. Everyone who has made "Salt Rising" knows how un i pleasant the odor is if it sets too long ; the army rules forbid the use of this ' bread by soldiers, as not being healthy. Yeast Put a large handful of hops in a bag of thin material, boil in two quarts of water till tho strength is out, strain- it, pare and grate three large raw potatoes, stir into the hop water, let it boil five minutes and add one teacup of sugar and a large tablespoon of salt and one teacup of flour stirred smooth with water, till the consistency of cream; when tho mixture is boiled up pour it into the crock to raise, and when cool enough not to scald put in a cake of some good kind of hop yeast, such as to be had at most grocery stores, cover it and keep warm till it looks light, stir down a couple of 1 times and put it away in a cool place. f One cup of this will make four good loaves of bread. We generally "sponge the bread at night by making a hole in the center of the pan of flour, then put ting a quart of new milk or warm water and salt with a cup of yeast, stirring it to a stiff batter, adding more wetting in the morning if desired, knead down in the morning and knead the second time, put ting in tho pans ; it needs only a little time to rise after it is in tho pans, if the yeast is good. A littlo lard or butter rubbed on the top before baking will make ellr'tlie crust more tender. If a family depend on warm biscuits from day to day, there is sure to le more of less sickness from disordered stomachs in the children and headaches-among the older ones. If tho bread is good to begin with it can be used even if it gets dry and old. One good way is to dip slices for an instant into milk or water, then lay on a hot skillet with a little butter, it will hiiiwn vprv nniplr And makft"ri most dpli- a . - --. -i -i cious dish. An egg beaten ini'lhe rnilk, ywith a little sugar is nice too. So .in some ray every scrap of bread can be used' to advantage, provided it is good bread ; but Tieavy black bread is worse than wasted and it's just as easy to have it good as to have it poor, with a little care and watch fulness. Ono must mold the bread well to insure it to lie finegrained.

The people generally are becoming more thoroughly aroused on this subject than ever before. England, Germany and the whole Chris tian world, is looking on this evil in a dif ferent light than what in which it has here tofore been regarded. It should be the earnest work of all who love humanity, and their own best interest, to build up defenses in the thousand avenues of its approach and avoid tho touch of its pesti lential hand. Women who have suffered much from this source should ever conse crate their best efforts and strength to tho supremacy of this amendment. The expression : " The hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world," is only true in a measure. In early childhood mamma has no rival, her smile is his constant delight, but by and by he begins to put away childish things, outside influences aro thrown around him, ho begins to imitiate'papa, if papa's intimate friends are opposed to prohibi tion and indulges in an occasional glass, he soon follows the example. When, alas, to soon he is a slave securely bound. With love of home the dear companion ship of friends all tugging at his heart- stiings, still he is drawn on and on into that dreadful vortex, deaf to a mother's tears and entreaties. This poor unfortu nate rocker only has one star of hope left, her prayer that ascends up to that great white thone, this most precious privilege that was bestowed on fellow-man. Her name is signed to petitions praying tho legislature to pass certain laws, but tho machinery of tho State grinds slow and the patient rocker sinks under a load of grief into an early grave. The grass is not yet green on her tomb when disease and sorrow brings him low ; lost to this world, his life a failure, a stranded wreck on the shore of time, tho prayers of child hood come back anew to him. Forgive ness is granted, the golden gate swings open and he is saved through the influ ence of that sainted rocker. This is a time for earnest Christian work, all have some influence. Bo less concerned about tho drop of a curl or the fold of a dress. Taking for our guide the teachings of tho Bible, remembering God is ever a rewarder of all that are diligent and faithful. Mrs. Lewis. General Rules for Pies and Puddings. In boiling puddings mind that the cloth be perfectly clean. Dip in hot wa ter and dredge it well with flour. If a bread pudding, tie it loose; if a batter pudding, tie it nearly loose; apple and gooseberry padding, etc., should be tied quite close. When you make a batter pudding, first mix tho flour well with milk, and stir in tho other ingredients by de grees ; you will then have it smooth with out lumps. The best way, however, for a plain batter pudding is to strain it through a coarse hair sieve, that it may have neither lumps nor the threndings of the eggs, and for other puddings strain the eggs when they rtre beaten up. Be sure the water boils when you put your pud ding in, and that it keeps boiling all tho time, and that you keep it always covered with water; you should also move it about two or three times at first, or it may stick to tho pot ; dip the pudding into cold water immediately yii tako it out, which prevents it sticking. If you boil your pudding in a dish or basin, butter the inside before putting the pudding in ; tho same should lie done to tho dish for baked pudding or pie. Tho quality of the pie crust depends much on tho baking. If the oven bo too hot, tho paste, besides being burned, will fall ; if too slack it will bo soddened, and heavy. Taste should be made on a cold, smooth substance ; such as marble, with a light, cool hand. It should be made quickly ; much handling makes it heavy. Great nicety is required in wetting tho paste ; too little moisture renders it dry and crumbly, while too much makes it "tough and heavy, and in either case tho paste cannot bo easily worked. Practice alone can produce perfection in tho art. Always use good sweet butter, drinnincs or lard for pudding crust. Somo persons entertain the mistaken notion that butter which cannot lie eaten on bread will do very well for paste: on tho contrary the making or boiling of rancid fat increases tho bad flavor. It is good to wash the butter in clean water before using it. Make two or three holes with a fork in the cover of your pies that the steam may escape. Germantown Telegraph. Oak-Leaf Edging, No. a.

This is the acid of sour milk, and therefore one of the best summer diet drinks that we can use is .buttermilk. It satisfies the craving for acids by giving to the stomach a natural supply, and at the same time furnishing in its cheesy matter a good supply of wholesome nutrition. A man will endure fatigue in hot weather better on buttermilk than on any diet drink he can use. Lemon Pie. Take two lemons, bake them a short time, squeeze and strain the juice, boil the rinds in half pint of water, then pour the water in the following mix ture : Two cupsfull of sugar, half a cup full of sweet milk, one tablespoonful of corn starch, ono ounre of butter, and yolks of six eggs. Bake it m a paste, then beat the whites with eight table- spoonfulls of sugar, and ixnir over the pio; brown slightly. This quantity makes two pies. The Household. An excellent mixture to remove greasa spots from boys' and men's clothing par ticularly, is made of four parts of alcohol to one of ammonia and about half as much cither as ammonia. Apply the liquid to the grease spots, and then rub diligently with a sponge and clear cold water. Tho chemistry of this seems to be that the alcohol and either dissolve the grease and the ammonia forms a soap with it which is washed out with the wa ter. The result is much more satisfactory than when something is used that only seems to spread tho grease and make it fainter, but doos not actually remove it. If oil is spilled, on tho carpet and you im mediately scatter corn meal over it, tho oil will be absorbed by it. Oil may also bo removed from carpets on which you do not dare to use either or ammonia by lay ing thick blotting paper over it and pres sing a hot iron on it. Repeat the opera tion several times, using a clean paper each time. Green Corn. A novel way to serve green corn, and which is pronounced a notable addition to the housewife's bill of fare, is as follows : " Take one dozen cars of tender corn, choosing ears that are of the same size and those of medium size ; grate them ; then add one quart of sweet milk, in which you have stirred till free from lumps, three tablespoon fuls of flour, a quarter of a pound of butter, or a piece as largo as an egg will do ; four eggs, whites and yolks beaten together, with pepcr and salt to your taste, and all tho ingredients called for; butter a largo earthen pudding dish, and bake this mix tine ono hour ; this will bo long enough if tho oven is hot when the dish is put in. This is to be served with meat and pota toes as a vegetable, though with tho ad dition of sugar and with a rich sauce it answers for a pudding. The above is very nice, but two hours for baking is better than one. If insufficiently cooked, corn has a disagreeablo raw taste. Farmers' Review. Drop Cakes. Warm drop cakes aro a favorite for tea, but considering tho un healthfulnessof warm cako I seldom pro vido them unless there seems a special dearth for tho tea table. Tako ono egg, a cupful of sugar, a cupful of sour cream, a teasiwonful of salerutus, three-fourths of teasoonful of salt and any kind of fla voring. Beat fho eggs with tho sugar; then add tho other ingredients, and flour enough to mako tho dough considerably thicker than for ordinary cakes; tho cream should be very rich, and if not, a littlo butter must bo added. Havo the dripper well buttered, and put in a spoon ful at a time, and place directly in a hot oven. I do not mind if the cakes run to gether a littlo, for they can bo broken apart and piled on u plate when taken from tho oven. A!out ten minutes is re quired for baking, and they should lo timed to bo taken to tho table tho last thing before sitting down. Hints for Cooking Meits. In roasting meat havo tho pan hot when you put tho meat in. If it is beef, put it in the hot pan and let it stand a moment and then turn it over, thus soaring both sides and preventing the juices from run ning so quickly. Do not put tho salt and pepper on tho meat, but put it in tho pan with tho water and then baste tho meat every threo or four minutes. You will find the meat to be thoroughly seasoned and will lie much mpro juicy and tender than by the old way of rubbintr tho sajt on the meat; putting tho salt on tho meat draws tho juice out and toughens it. Roast fowls in the same way ; also fish ; not putting any butter or grease near them until nlmo-it dono ; then rub a littlo butter over them to irivo them a nice crisn outside.

Come, boys, I have something to tell yo:' isome near, i wouia wmsptr it low; You are thinking of leaving the hom Don't be in a hurrv to so. i homestead; The city has many attractions, But think of the vices and sins; When once in the vortex of fashion, How soon the course downward begins I You talk of the mines of Australia; They've wealth in the bright gold, no doubt; But, eh I there is gold on the farm, boys, If you'll only shovel it out. The mercantile lif.i is a hazard, The cods are first hioh and then low: Better risk the old farm a while longer; Don't be in a hurry to go I The great, busy west has inducements, And so has the bjsincss mart: But wealth is not made in a day, boys; Don't be in a hurry to start 1 The bankers and brokers are wealthy; They take in their thousands or so; Oh t think of the frauds and deceptions; Don't he in a hurry to go I The farm is the safest and surest; The orchards are loaded to-day; You are free as the air in the mountains, And monarch ot all you survey; Better stay on the farm a while longer, Though profit comes in rather slow; Remember you havo nothing to risk, boys, Don't be in a hurry to go ! OUR LETTER BOX Aunt Hetty feels quite encouraged now, for the letters begin to come in again. There aro so many enjoyments to bo found out of doors now that the girls and boys do not think about staying in tho house long enough to write letters. There are not many strawberries this spring, so we may expect there aro a great many little girls who arc sorry and disap pointed about it. May writes from Umatilla, but tho let ter was so long coming that wo expect she has thought it was lost somewhere. She must try again to write to the Farmer. Laura's letter, too, must havo been de tained somewhere on the road, for it is dated somo weeks ago. She has pieced a quilt; every littlo girl ought to try how many pretty quilts she can get. Worsted quilts are nice, too, and silk quilts arc still handsomer. If ono is careful to save all the pieces a quilt is soon started. If the pieces are from friends it will make an album quilt. It is pleasant when ono gets older to look at the pieces ; it reminds one of the friends of the past, and often brings tho most delightful memories. Another letter from Umatilla is from Lizzie. The says she wrote sonic timo ago. Wo are sure to publish all that comes, so wo arc afraid something hap pened to that letter, and we are very sorry to lose it. Maybe Lizzie forgot to put a stamp on it. Aunt Hetty some times forgets to do it. It is a very nice idea to write verses of scripture, and still better to learn them. We havo promised a book to tho ono who commits tho most verses to memory. Liz zie must try. Leah thinks her letter before this was not printed, but wo are sure it was, for wo remember tho name. She must bo a most industrious littlo girl, and studious, too. It will be a great comrort somo timo to remember tho verses in the Testament. We know an old lady who is now blind, and sho says she is so glad hIio committed to memory verses when sho was young, for sho says it is tho greatest comfort to her now while sho sits in darkness all these long days to bo able to repeat thoso precious promises in tho Bible. Sho says she is sorry for peonlo who are (leaf, and thinks it is better to bo blind than not to hear. For our part it seems as if it would be more dreadful not to bo able to seo the beautiful world. What do you think aliout it? Let each ono give an opinion. In Hariier's Young People there is a let ter column, too, and there has grown to bo a custom for almost every littlo girl who writes to give a rcccipo for somo kind of cooking that tho writer has tried her self. Now this would bo a good idea for our column. Don't you think so? Who will commence first? Tangent, Or., May6, 1883. Editor Home Circle : I thought a my other letter was not printed I would write again. I saw letters from two of my conslna in the Farmer. I read the children's letters. I am a little girl 10 years old. Our school has bet n out two weeks. I study tho Fifth Reader, arithmetic, spelling and writing.

I will tell you what I do to help mamma: I dry the il'shes, sweep the floor, carrv in the wood and do the ironing. and sometimes make the beds. I haven't any pets to tell you about. My oldest brother Is sick; he has been sick about three months. If I see this in print I will write again. Please put my name on the temperance roll.

My sister and I tako a paper called the HoUHreold Journal; it costs one dollar a year. I get four pictures with it. My papa got a map of Palestine; ho got it with a piper called the St. Louis Observer; it is printed in St. LouK I will ask Aunt Hetty if she don't think it nice for children lo write a verse out of the Bible? I will try and see how it will look in print: "Ni.w upon the first day of me weoK very cany in tne morning they came uruo ino sepuicre, cringing tne spices which they had nrenared ami certain others with them." Like, chap, xxiv verse 1. I hope all will add a verte to their letters. Plea's put my name on the temperance roll. I will c!ose by aking a question : " Whero in tho Bible is the word barrel found, and how minv times'" l win scnit Aunt Hetty one of my cards. Good by. From your little friend, Lizzie 1'arkek.
