If possible choose an ordinarily warm day in winter for washing dark colored wash goods, and all flannels. Tho colored wash goods should be washed in starch water, The starch is made by mix ing one cupful of white flour with one pint of cold water, beating until all lumps are removed; when per fectly smooth, pour into the mixture three quarts of boiling water, stir ing rapidly; and strain. To this amount of starch, add two gallons of warm water. Use these propor tions for any amount. Wash the garments in this mixture the same as though it were suds, and the starch is very cleansing; wash a sec ond time in a mixture of one pint of starch made, as above and two gal- ions of warm water; rinse in cold water and, without further starch ing, hang out to dry. Even though the garments may freeze, they will not have the. powdery, smeary look which starched garments have when frozen in drying. It is needless to say that garments should be turned wrong side out, dried as quickly as possible and ironed on the wrong side;. By this method tfo soap is re quired. For woolens, make a heavy suds of white soap and two pailfuls of quite warm water. Dissolve two tablespoonfuls of borax in one qiart of boiling water and pour half of this in the suds; shako all dust from the white flannels, put into the suds, and work through tb,o suds without rubbing, lifting, squeezing and rub bing between they hands lightly. Squeeze the water from tho garment when it looks clean, rinse through another lighter suds, then through two waters of the same temperature to each of which a cupful of the dissolved borax water has been added. Pass through tho wringer, or put the article in a strong cloth and twist or squeeze the ends of tho cloth to free the flannel as much as possible of water. Shake well and I dry in a' warm place. Iron with a moderately warm iron when partly dry. With fresh suds proceed in the same way witli the colored flannels. Do not let freeze!

Hamburg Roast Have tho butch er chop very fino (or run it through a meat chopper) an inferior cut from tho round; for every pound of round uso one-fourth pound of salt pork chopped fino, half a cupful of toasted bread crumbs, one-third cupful of water, one egg, half a toaspoonful of salt, a pinch of pepper and a tea spoonful of grated onion. Mix all well together, form into a shapely loaf, Jay strips of salt pork over tho top, and roast, allowing about twen ty minutes to tho pound. Macaroni, plain boiled, is a "must-havo" with this dish, and onions in cream sauce, or fried bananas may be served with it. Slow cooking at a low temperature will render the cheaper cuts of meat both tender and palatable, and the good cook can thus supply savory, tender, appetizing meat dishes at a considerablo saving of coBt.

Stir until thoroughly mixed, and when cool, flavor with two or three drops of attar of roses, and sprinkle a handful of clear yellow honeycomb, carelessly broken up, In to the mixture. Ano.ther Select fine, ripe, juicy pears; remove, tho cores, but do not peel; crush them in a bowl or small wooden press, and wring them in a bag of coarse, strong crash; strain the juice through a piece of cheese cloth. Put the juice thus obtained Un a stone vessel, crock or jar, and place in a cool oven over night; then cook very slowly until the juice is reduced two-thirds, and Is of a thick, honey-like consistency. Fish must be fried very carefully to insure delicacy. The fat must be hot enough to at once sear .the outside, without scorching or burn ing, and this will prevent the absorp tion of greaBe, which spoils the taste. Before dropping into the hot fat, dredge each piece with flour, and when one side is nicely browned, turn and brown the other.
