V THE DAILY DEMOCRAT. HINTS TO HorSKKEEl'KUS. DUcolcred tea and coffee poti mar be cleaned by filling them with water in which two or three tablespoonfult of wofcd ashes have been placed, and letting it boil up, then wash thoroughly with hot soap suds, and rinse. One may utilize old matting which is no longer fresh enough to look well, by putting it under carpets. It can be cleaned perfectly by w ashing it on both sides with hot salt and water; hang it on a line outdoors to dry. Oilcloths will last lo iger if one or two layers of w added carpel -lining are laid un der them. Tea leaves are good to scatter over car- , pets before sweeping, not only to freshen the colors, but also to prevent the dust a- rising, A simple means of changing th: air of a sickroom is to open a window at the top and opening th door, move it backward and forward rapidly, so as to insure a cur rent of fresh air from the window Ham should be boiled very quickly, ami just enough to cook through. Tin cleaned w ith paper will shine better than when cleaned w ith flannel. Flowers can be kept fresh for some time if a pinch of soda or saltpetie is added to the water Vilt:d roses wi'l regain their freshness if dipped a minute or two In hot water. Cheese which w ill instantly and intense, ly redden blue litmus paper should not be eaten. This is a test easy of application, and eery merchant on cutting a fresh cheese should make it.

Or apply a mixture of two parts washing-soda, one part ground pumice-stone and one part chalk, all first finely powdered and made into a paste with water; rub well over the maible, and finally w ash off with sciap and water. Boiled custard requires patience and can:. If the eggsreach the boiling point, they will break, and yet if they do not reach it within one or todegrees, the cus tard will not thicken, and will taste raw, and lack the exquisite thick smoothness of well-made custard. To produce this, yet avoid curdling, therefore, patience, and proceed as follows: Stir the mixture over a moderate fire. When you see from tne end of the spoon that it begins to thicken at the bottom draw It to a cooler spot where It will not boil, stir half a minute, then re turn to the hotter spot. Do this several times, checking the approach to boiling point each time there is danger, until the whole of the mixture has reached that point hlrh may be known by It being rich, tMt k .-nd perfectly opaq"e.

Many people In Canada believe the pop ulation ot that country is increasing very slowlv, or not at all, owing to the removals, chiefly of the young and enterprising, to the United States. The agricultural pop ulation of Canada does not increase at all. What gjiln there is concentrates In cities. In one county a recent canvass prelum -nary to an election showed that 350 heads of families had removed to thj United Stales since 1SS6. The debt of C tn id 1 is ncreaslng, while that of the United States Is being paid off. Every year conditions favor larger removals of Canadians to tnl s country, and thtre is only an Imaginary boundary for them to cros; to become identified with the m -it pr.j-p.'ioui commonwealth. The eleventh census will be much less elaborate than the last, and, as a eor.se qucncewill be more exact.Doing too much has resulted in doing nothing well. The final volumes of the tenth census have only lately been published, and some of the statistics gathered were so obviously erroneous that thev were never put into type. The new census commissioner promises to give the whole census in ten volumes, and to complete its publication n 1S92. From debates in Congress it seems likely he will be urged to adhere to this excellent programme. Guard Well tho Children's Health.
