THE
Eecipes.
Cod Liver Oil. —Cod liver oil is neither
more nor less than cod-oil clarified; and
consequently two-thirds of its medicinal
qualities are abstracted thereby. Cod-oil
can be purchased pure at any wholesale
oil warehouse, at about one-thirtieth part
of the price charged for the so called eod
liver oil. Many persons who have used
cod oil pure as imported, have found it to
answer much better than the cod liver oil
purchased of a druggist. The best vehicle
for taking cod-liver oil in is new milk, and
the disagreeable flavor of the drug can ea
sily be covered by the addition of one
drachm of orange peel to every eight oun
ces of the oil.
A nourishing Jelly for a sick Person.—
Put into a stone jar or jug, a set of calf's
feet, cut in pieces, a quart of milk, five
pints of water, a little mace, half an ounce
of ising.ass, and a handful of hartshorn
shavings. Tie some brown paper over the
jug, and put it into the oven witli house
hold bread. When done, strain it through
a seive; and when cold, take off the fat.
Some of it may occasionally be warmed up
with wine and sugar. It is good taken as
broth, with herbs.
Drinks for the Sick. —Water is the bev
erage prepared by the bountiful Creator to
allay the thirst of all living creatures on
the earth; and when the bare quenching
of thirst is the object, clear, pure cold wa
ter is the best drink that can be given; but,
when other objects are to be attained, a
combination becomes necessary, into which,
generally, enters an acid, an alkali, a stim
ulus, a tonic, or some article of nourish
ment. In bilious diseases, acidulated
drinks are often found beneficial—and one
of the best of these is iu the form of lem
onade.
Lemonade. —Take fresh lemon-juice,
lour ounces , fresh and very thin-peeled
lemon, half an ounce; white sugar, four
ounces; boiling water three pints. Let
this mixture stand til! cold, then strain for
use. As this drink sometimes causes pain
in the bowels, it should not be drank too
freely.
Apple Water. —Take one tart apple of
ordinary size, well-baked; let it be well
washed; pour on it one pint of boiling wa
ter; beat them well together; let it stand
to cool, and strain it off for use. Add loaf
sugar, if the patient desire it.
I ineyar Mixture. —Take of good vine
gar three ounces ; water one pint; loaf su
gar two and a half ouneca.
Alkalescent Drinks. —These are used for
what is commonly termed a sour stomach
—heart bum —arising from indigestion.
The following is the combination employed
by an eminent physician, in his owii case:
Dyspeptic Ley. —Take of hickory ashes,
one quart, soot, two ounces, boiling water,
one gallon ; mix and let them stand twen
ty-four hours, frequently stirring the ingre
dients ; then pour off the ley, and bottle it
up A tea-cup of this liquor may be giv
en three times a day.
Harmless and Sure Cure for TFurfs. —
lake two or three cent*' worth of sal am
moniac, dissolve it in a gill of soft water,
and wet the warts frequently with this so
lution, when they will disappear in the
course of a week or two. I have frequent
ly tried this cure for warts, and it has nev
er failed.
InKniirsi&t.
Mental Culture. —lt is an interesting
fact that cannot be gainsayed or controver
ted, (says the Country Gentleman,) that
the aversion to manual labor has been great
ly increased by the improvement of schools
and the enlarged advantages for mental
culture which are now enjoyed as compared
with those of fifty years ago. There is no
denying the fact, that high mental culture
serves or tends to unfit young men to en
gage in hard work on the farm or in the
shop. Every one who observes at all, can
call to mmd cases enough to confirm this
statement. And, moreover, it will also be
admitted that this is true of thousands who
have 110 claim to high culture, but have
been to school enough to imbibe a dislike
for manual labor, without having made suf
ficient attainments to fit them for anything
else. Said a New England grandmother,
the frugal wife of an industrious farmer,
to the writer a few years ago, ' Children
now a days go to school just long enoutrh
to spoil them, for they get learning enough
to make them too proud to work, and not
enough to fit them for anything else.' A
remark worthy of a sage or a philosopher!
11 inter Work. —The Winter is the prop
er time to prepare labels, sticks, trellises,
Ac., for Spring and Summer use. Good
pina or cedar shingles are excellent for la
bels. splitting them into pieces of conveni
ent width, and painting them with white
paint. If the name be written with a lead
pencil before the paint dries, it will never
be effaced by tne action of the weather.
For rods for supporting the stents of plants,
split the shingles round the pieces and
paint them green. We have already rec
ommended iron wire, cut into proper lengths
and painted green, or galvanized wire with
out paint, as excellent for the purpose.
Spaying Coxes. —The New England Far
mer states that a gentleman at Newbury,
port had two cows spayed last spring, and
is well satisfied with the beneficial effects
produced by the operation. The cows give
as much milk in October as they did just
after divine in May.
Wheat. —Rev. Mr. Smith, of Lois M eed
on, Northamptonshire, England, has for
twelve consecutive seasons cultivated wheat
on the same ground without manure, the
average produce being thirty-five bushels
to the acre. The yield has not diminished,
but has latterly been as good as when the
experiment was commenced. The method
is to till the land by the spade, to the
depth of the subsoil; plant three rows of
wheat, with a space of one foot between
each, and then leave a breadth of three
feet, which is used as a fallow, auu kept
open by the spade. Wheu the crop is ta
ken off the fallow spaces are seeded, and
the ground previously occupied left vacant;
thus, in reality, producing wheat on half
the ground every other year.
Bees. —lu many instances chloroform
has been successfully used to stupefy bees
in examining hives for moths or other pur
poses, in removing honey, and in transfer
ing bees from one hive to another. It is
only necessary to close the liivesufficiently
to prevent egress, anil then pi .ce in it at
some point, a sponge or cloth saturated
with a little chloroform, so as to fill the
hive with the vapor. As soon as the bees
are sufficiently stupefied, open the hive,
perform whatever operations are desired ;
then ventilate with fresh air sufficiently to
remove any remaining vapor, and the next
morning the bees will he as active and live
ly as if nothing had happened to theui.
No harm will ensue, if the chloroforming
be not carried on at first to a needless de
gree and length of time.

GREAT IMPROVEMENT!
Simple and Economical!
MANY attempts have been made to produce
a Coffee Pot capable of condensing and
retaining the aroma and strength of the Coffee
ordinarily wasted by evaporation, and yet be
simple enough to come within the limits of or
dinary comprehension. Hitherto this desirable
end has been very imperfectly attained, and by
means difficult to explain and understand.
THE OLD EMPIRE COFFEE POT
has none of those faults; on the contrary it is
so arranged as to condense perfectly, and4fcn e
by retain all the rich fragrance and strength of
the Coffee, giving a most delicious beverage at
a quarter less expense, and yet is so perfectly
simple that it is actually impossible to make
any mistake. A child can comprehend the
whole thing perfectly. All who have used this
Coffee Pot are delighted with its great simplicity
and excellence. For saie at the Tin and Stove

A Splendid Large Extended Oven
Gas Burning Cooking Stove.
FOR COAL OR WOOD.
IT has long been a favored object with stove
dealers to construct a flat top down draft
Cooking Stove that would combine all the ad
vantages of excellent draft, large oven and good
baking properties, with the use of a moderate
amount of fuel. These desirable qualities have
all been combined in the flat top Gas Burning
Cooking Stove, the DAVLIGIIT. This beau
tiful stove, the result of many years' experi
ence, and combining all the improvemcuts of
the age, is one of the most perfect made. It
operates in the most perfect manner, and in sit
uations where other flat top stoves would fail to
operate. The Daylight, during the past year,
has given the most entire satisfaction, and is
surpassed by no stove of the same class. It is
new in design, beautiful in appearance, unsur
passed in its operations, and a great saver of
fuel. They are warranted to give entire satis
faction. Call and examine the Daylight, at the

jUHE reputation of these very celebrated veg
vl etable remedies is now unequalled by an\
others in this country or in Europe. They art
fully established as the most universal family
medicine now in use, and they wilt maintain
their pre-eminent renown by the intrinsic and
comprehensive virtues which acquired it. The
usual modes of puffery would be unworthy of
them and is unnecessary. Thousands and tens
of thousands of persons now living in perfectly

ed 10 furnish and put it on roofing wherever desired— the
roof being sheeted by the owner, e'en nlific men under
the direction of government, and architects and builder*
in various parls of the country, fur years have bee*
sludying and exfierinieiiting to discover some composition
or article for roofing, which would resist the chai.g. s of
our climate, and would unite the qualities of impervuus
noss low iter,iricouibustibility, dur.ihiiil\ and <ln spurn.
No article uow in use posse-ses lh.-e qualities Sihn gre
are not tire proof, and cannot he used on fl it roofs. MUie

pansion and rusting of tiieial ic roofs are so great in this
changeable climate that Ihej soon boi mne worthless or
the repairs will cost more than ain vt roof The various
cements and com|H>sitions which have been introduced
can he supplied only to very flat roofs, and l h -j are all ss
alfectcd by the action of the weather Ih.lt tl.py will melt
and run in summer and crack in winter, and in a short
time become crumbly and worthless. The inventor nf
the Galvanic Cement has labored twenty yearstoobviate
these difficulties, and it is believed by those who ham
had opportunities lo test the matter, that he has rntirelc
succeeded. A now applied.
First —lt is completely impervious lo waler. Watir

will afford amp'e ami perfect protection againsi fire,
-park" and burning shingles from another building unnie
diately adjoining

pansion and contraction by heat and cold, and w ill re
main perfect and solid in the warmest or coldest weather

gle roofs may be covered without removing the shingles.
Old metallic roofs can be made perfectly light and secure.

lining of eave troughs and gullets. ltooG which have
given trouble for years, and which hive continued to leak

this cement.
Tenth—lt has been proved to be the best article ever
used for covering car tope and steamboat decks.

serves them from rusting, by furnishing a coat which is
at once impervious to water and an almost perfect non
conductor of heat.
Twelfth—lt is the only roofing material patented which
