should be of good temperature to

constantly, for without it, you will
surely fail to make good bread. When
the bread is done, tu'en out' on the

In measuring, a pint bowl is used.

one nutmqg, two tabjespooufuls
ground cinnamon, ono teaspoouful
(more, if you like) ground cloves.
Cook altogether until the fruit is ton

Carinas From Seeds.
In February prepare the seeds for
planting by pouring hot water over
theiri and allowing them to ptand for
a couple of days in a warm place
so that the water may be warm all
the time. The water must be boiling
when poured on tho seeds. A good
place to keep the seeds is on the
warming closet or hot water reser
voir, allowing it to keep only warm.
At the end of the two days, examine,
and remove all that have bulged out
or broken the germ end. Plant these,
and with a file or sharp knife, chip
through the covering until the white
inside is visible; tho, germ end may
be recognized by the dark raised spot.
Replace and leave in the warm water
for a few days longer, when all may
be removed and planted. The seed
boxes should be three inches deep,
well-drained, with a layer of good
soil at the bottom one inch deep, on
this place a layer of one inch-and-a-lialf
of sand; plant the seeds one
inch deep, and about that distance
apart. Keep where, the. temperature
can be. maintained at about 80 de
grees Fahrenheit. About 70 per cent
may be expected to germinate; they
will come up very irregularly, but as
soon as a plant gets two Inches high,
roraove and plant four inches apart
in pots four or five inches deep, filled
with good, rich garden soil. Do not
fail to keep the soil well moist, and
the temperature should be kept at 60
to 70 degrees. On bright days, give
all the- sunshine possible, ventilat
ing and accustoming them to the air
as much as possible, but they must
not be put into the ground until all
danger of frost is over; then; give
them the sunniest situation, therich-
Somo Good Hints.
Fresh, brittle asparagus ls a. de
lightful addition to our. list of spring
vegetables, and you know you can
scarcely get it, oven in the largo
markets, but you can have it right at
your door, if you wish. A bod ot as
paragus once established will last a
lifetime with proper card, and it is In
no sense of the word '.difficult to raise.
In fact, once established, it raises it
self. Sandy soil, with plenty o'f ma
nure, Js preferred, but it will do fine
in any good garden soil, if properly
enrichdd and attended to. Or, It can
bo made sandy, artificially. An au
thority on such matters says that as
between ground deeply trenched and
land merely plowed, the plowed land
will last tho longest. Setting six to
eight inches deep, four feet apart each
way," is best. The stools gradually
raise in tho soil, the cultivation is
easier, and tho sprouts are less nu
merous, and therefore larger. A good
covering of sand is advisable. Salt Is
not necessary, but Is. good to keep
down the weeds.
Don't forget to put the sweet peas
in' the ground early. Plant them In a
trench, cover shallow "and hill them
up as they grow. Frost will not hurt
tho young plants, and- there is .little
danger pi the seeds rotting in tho
ground. It Is well to order them
early.

Cooking BeofstceJc.
."Reader" sends in the following
method of cooking beefsteak, which
she asks that the sisters try: Take a
round steak if it is very thick, all
the. better cut in small squares sev
eral inches in size; have kettle on
the stove containing half teacupful
of hot lard. Dip the pieces of steak
into, tho hot lard quickly, leaving a
fow seconds; remove, roll each piece
of steak in flour, covering 'each side
well; put back into the kettle and
carefully pour into one side of the
kettle a large teacupful of boiling
water, and cover lightly. Leave ket
tle on top of the stove where it will
simmer slowly two or three hours,
adding water, a very little at a time,
as it evaporates just enough to keep
the meat from burning. The flour1 on
the meat helps to'riaako a rich gravy,
while the meat being seared in the
hot lard, beof fat, or butter, as you
prefer, keeps the juices inside. Salt
and pepper to taste before taking up.
If onions are liked, take half a dozen
good-sized ones, slice over the meat,
adding a little more water than for
the meat alone, and they will cook,
nicely. Potatoes may be treated the
name.

The Nevy Remedy For Catarrh is
Very Valuable.
A Grand Rapids gentleman who. rep
resents a prominent manufacturing
concern and travels through central
and southern Michigan, relates the lol
lowliig regarding tho new catarrh
cure. Ha says:
"After suffering from catarrh of tho
head, throat and stomach for several
years, I heard of Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets quito accidentally and like evcxy
thing else I immediately bought a
package and was decidedly surprised
at tho immediate relief it afforded nic
and still more to And a complete euro
fler several weeks' use.
"l have a. little son who sings in a
boys' choir in one of our prominent
churches, and he is greatly troubled
with hoarseness and throat weakness,
and on my return homo irom a trip I
gave him a few of the taolets one Sun
day morning when he had complained
of hoarseness. He was delighted with
their effect, removing all huskiness in
a few minutes and making tho voico
clear and strong.
"As tho tablets are very pleasant to
the taste, I had no difllculty in per
suading him to uso them regularly.
"Our family physician told us they
were an antiseptic preparation of un
doubted merit and that he himself
had no hesitation in recommending
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets for any form
of catarrh.
"I have since met many public
speakers and professional singers who
used them constantly. A prominent
Detroit lawyer told me that Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets kept his throat in fino
shape during the most trying weather,
and that he had long since discarded
the uso of cheap lozenges and troches
on the advice of his physician that
they contained so much tolu potash
and opium as to render their use a
danger to health."
Stuart's Catarrh Tahlets are largo
pleasant tasting lozenges composed of
catarrhal antiseptics, like Red Gum,
Blood Root, etc., and sold by druggists
everywhere at 50 cents for full treat
ment. They act upon the blood and mucous
membrane and their composition and
remarkable success has won the ap
proval of physicians, as well as thou
sands of sufferers from nasal catarrh,
throat troubles and catarrh of stom
ach. A little book on treatment of catarrh,
