THE
RECIPES.
From Peterson's Ijodies' Magazine for Dec-
To make Mince-Meat —lake two lbs.
of raisins, stone them well; two pounds
of beef suet finely chopped up; two
pounds and a half of well-cleaned cur
rants, two pounds of apples pared and
cored; two ponnds of brown sugar;
three-quarters of a pound of candied
lemon and citron; the grated rinds of
two lemons; one grated nutmeg; half
an ounce of salt; one teaspoonful of
pounded ginger; half that quantity of
Eounded mace; half a pint of the best
randy, and half a pint of sherry.
These ingredients must all be minced
separately and well mixed with each
other, before the brandy and wine are
added. Those who like meat introdu
ced into their mince meat should add
to the above quantity of fruit, one lb.
of unsalted ox-tongue, boiled tender,
or the undercut of a sirloin of beef.
The mince meat should be kept in close
covered jars, and should be made some
days before it is required for use.
Ginger Biscuit. —Rub half a pound of
fresh butter into two pounds of fine
flour, add half a pound of sifted sugar,
and three ounces of pounded ginger.
Beat up the yelks of three eggs, and
take a little milk, with which make
the above ingredients into a paste.
Knead it all well together and roll it
out extremely thin, then cut it into
the form of round biscuits with a paste
cutter. Bake them in a slow oven un
til crisp, taking care that they are a
palo brown color.
Griddle Cake —A very nice cake can
be produced by rubbing some butter
into flour, as you would for pie crust,
rolling it about half an inch thick, and
baking on a quick griddle. These
cakes should be opened and buttered
hot like muffins.
Short Bread. —Rub one pound of but
ter and twelve ounces of finely pow
dered loaf sugar into two pounds of
flour; with your hand make it into stiff
paste, with four eggs, cut it into round
or square cakes; pinch the edges, and
stick slices of candied lemon peel and
some caraway comfits on top; then bake
them on iron plates in a warm oven.
Keeping Potatoes.
The following from a cotemporary
makes some suggestions which may be
of interest to our readers:
We find great care used to prevent
potatoes and other roots from freezing.
Freezing does not hurt them, it is the
THAWING that does the mischief. Po
tatoes may be frozen and thawed three
or four times during the winter, pro
vided the thawing be properly conduc
ted, and not be injured thereby in the
least.
If a member of the body, such as a
hand or foot, be frozen, and be sudden
ly thawed by fire or warm water, the
flesh will mortify and drop off; but let
the frozen member be rubbed with
snow, which is a little lower in temper
ature than the frozen foot, and thus be
gradually thawed, and no inconveni
ence will ensue.
Only last spring I planted potatoes
which were kept in a heap in the open
air, and covered with threo inches of
earth all winter. They were twice at
least frozen solid, and twice thawed,
but were uninjured.
In the spring, if early vegetables,
such as beans, peas or tomatoes, should
be frosted, or completely covered with
a white frost, they may be saved by
being sprinkled with cold water, if ad
ministered before the suu shines upon
them. The water reduces the temper
ature gradually, without any bad ef
fect. If potatoes, apples or other veg
etables when frozen solid are placed in
cold water, they will be thawed grad
ually, and no harm will be done them.
Vegetables may be kept all winter
by making them into conical heaps,
and covered with three inches of earth,
and a sod on top to shed rain. A thin
layer of clean straw may be placed
over the vegetables, to keep them from
the dirt. YVheu put up in this manner
apples or potatoes may be taken out
at any time during tho winter, and if
thawed in cold water are as good as
ever.
If your potatoes freeze in the cellar,
don't wait for them to thaw but throw
them in a conical heap, either where
they are or in the open air, and cover
them with dirt, straw, shavings, old
clothes or chaff, packed tight around
them and they are safe. The cover
ing will prevent sudden changes, which
do all the mischief. I have saved fro
zen potatoes in this way, aud it ma}'
be new to some of your readers, and
of use to them as it has been to me.

>) THE peculiar taint or
infection which we
call SCKOFCLA lurks
in the constitutions of -
<JS. multitudes of nicn. It '
jt \ either produces or is '
produced by an cn- j
■I | fi rlill I vitiated state i
' ; . ife-of tlie blood, wherein 1
fluid becomes in
j to sustain
/fjMmjirifflfthc vital forces in their
vigorous action, and
eaves the system to
~""r fall into disorder and
decay. The scrofulous contamination is va
riously caused by mercurial disease, low i
living, disordered digestion from unhealthy
food, impure air, filth and filthy habits,
the depressing vices, and, above all, by
the venereal infection. Whatever be its
origin, it is hereditary in the constitution,
descending "from parents to children unto
the third and fourth generation;" indeed, it
seems to be the rod of Him who says, " 1 will
visit the iniquities of the fathers upon their
children." The diseases it originates take
various names, according to the organs it
attacks. In the lungs, Scrofula produces
tubercles, and finally Consumption; in the
glands, swellings wliieh suppurate and be
come ulcerous sores; in the stomach and
bowels, derangements which produce indi
gestion, dyspepsia, and liver complaints; on
the skin, eruptive and cutaneous aflections.
These, all having the same origin, require the
same remedy, viz., purification and invigora
tion of the blood. Purify the blood, and
these dangerous distempers leave you. With
feeble, foul, or corrupted blood, you cannot
-have health; with that "life of the flesh"
healthy, you cannot have scrofulous disease.
Ayor's Sarsaparilla
is compounded from the most effectual anti
dotes that medical science has discovered lor
this afflicting distemper, and for the cure of
the disorders it entails. That it is fur supe
rior to any other remedy yet devised, is
' known by all who have given it a trial. That
it does combine virtues truly extraordinary
in their effect upon this class of complaints,
is indisputably proven by the great multitude
of publicly known and remarkable cures it
has made of the following diseases : King's
Evil, or Glandular Swellings, Tumors,
Eruptions, Pimples, Blotches and Sores,
Erysipelas, Bose or St. Anthony's Fire,
Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Coughs from
tuberculous deposits in the lnngs, White
Swellings, Debility, Dropsy, Neuralgia,
Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Syphilis and
Syphilitic Infections, Mercurial Diseases,
Female Weaknesses, and, indeed, the whole
aeries of complaints that arise from impurity
of the blood. Minute reports of individual
cases may be found in AYHR'S AMERICAN
ALMANAC, which is furnished to the druggists
for gratuitous distribution, wherein may be
learned the directions for its use, and some
of the remarkable cures wliieh it has made
when all other remedies had failed to afford
relief. Those cases are purposely taken
from all sections of the country, in order
that every reader may have access to some
one who can speak to him of its benefits from
personal experience. Scrofula depresses the
vital energies, and thus leaves its victims far
more subject to disease and its fatal results
than are healthy constitutions. Hence it
tends to shorten, and does greatly shorten,
the average duration of human life. The
vast importance of these considerations has
led us to spend years in perfecting a remedy
which is adequate to its cure. This we now
offer to the public under the name of ATER'S
SARSATARILLA, although it is composed of
ingredients, some of which exceed the best
of SarsapariUa in alterative power. By its
aid you may protect yourself from the suffer
ing and danger of these disorders. Purge
out the foul corruptions that rot and fester
in the blood, purge out the causes of disease,
and vigorous health will follow. By its pecu
liar virtues this remedy stimulates the vital
functions, and thus expels the distempers
which lurk within the system or burst out
on any part of it.
We know the public have been deceived
by many compounds of SarsapariUa, that
promised much and did nothing; but they
will neither be deceived nor disappointed in
this. Its virtues have been proven by abun
dant trial, and there remains no question of
its surpassing excellence for the cure of the
afflicting diseases it is intended to reach.
Although under the same name, it is a very
different medicine from any other which has
been before the people, and is far more ef
fectual than any other which has ever been
available to them.

could not live over night. I was for days

half a bottle of your liniment about the
house, I thought I would try it, and took
about 20 drops night Bnd morning for sotne
time. From the time I took it I have nover
had one chill, and can say that I never had
used any medicine that gave so much satis
faction as your liniment. Your ob't servant,
