About Strawberries.
The following receipts for the prep
aration of strawberries, may be inter
estinr at this season :
Strawberry Short Cakes. —lnto three
pints oi' flour rub, dry, two teaspoon.'
heaping full of cream tartar; add hal
a tea cup of butter, n little salt. on<
teaspoonful of soda dissolved in a pin
of milk and water. Mix quickly nn<
thoroughly, roll to an inch in thick
ness. and bake twenty minutes in r
quick oven.
Take a quart of strawberries, and
add cream and sugar to make a sauce
For this purpose small-sized, rather
acid berries, with sprightly flavor arc
preferable.
When the short cake is done, divide
into three layers, butter them, and
spread the strawberries between them
Eat while warm.
Strawberry Dumplings. —Crust to be
made the same as directed for .short
cake; roll half an inch thick : put about
a gill of strawberries, for each dump
ling. Hake, steam, or boil half an
hour.
Strawberry Dies. —Line your pie dish
with crust made in the usual manner:
til! the dish with good ripe strawber
ries oi medium size; sprinkle on a lit
tle flour, and sugar in proportion to
the acidity of the berries. Cover with
a thin crust.
Strawberry J on. —For every pound
of strawberries take three-quarters ot
a pound ot' sugar. The berries should
be mashed in a preserving kettle, and
thesagar thoroughly mixed with them.
Boil from twenty minutes to half an
hour, stirring constantly.
Strawberry Jdly. —Take strawberries
when fully ripe, strain, and to each
pint of juice add a pound of the best
refined sugar. Boil briskly, ski mm in g
when necessary, for ten or fifteen rain
utes, or until it will jelly, which may
be known by dropping it in a little
cold water, 'if done, it will fall to the
bottom in a mass.
Strawberry Cream —Mash the fruit
gently; drain it on a sieve; strew a
little sugar on it; when well drained
< without being pressed), add sugar and
cream to the juice, and, if too thick, a
little milk. Whisk it in a little bowl,
and as the froth raises lay it on a sieve;
when no more will rise put the cream
k* a dish and lay the froth upon it.
I'' Preserve Strawberries Without Su
gar. — Put the fruit in the preserving
kettle, and, If very dry, add a little
water to prevent burning. Boil about
three minutes, or just long enough to
be sure the whole mass is thoroughly
healed, not cooked. Dip into cans,
filling them completely; seal quicklv.
and set in a cool place. (Glass jars
containing fruit should be kept in a
dark place, or covered with a dark
colored paper). Open and add sugar
several hours before using.
Stroacberry Winc. —Take ono gallon
of juice, strained. Yuld two and a half
pounds of sugar > no water): let it. stand
in an open vessel twenty-four hours,
occasion ally skimming off the skum
that rises. I hen till the cask in which
it is put full, reserving enough to till
up, as, in process of fermentation, it
runs over. When the fermentation is
comp'cted, stop tightly. Let stand
three months, draw off, and bottle.
Strawberries and Claret. —Over throe
quarts of strawberries pour one botlh
of good claret wine. Add t
fruit the taste.

you say aye, tell us how ; if vou sav

for the Educational Coiumn.
Firmness.
I irmncss is an indispensable faculty
to him \\ho would succeed in mana,r

and in family unless he be met by
kindness and inflexible firmness. Be
sure to make righteous decisions, and
then carry them out, wisely and fullv
A crisis in school or in family avoided

a common weakness so well that wc

Mother. —Well, you don't need an

Child. —No. It don't. ( Whin in, J)
do want a piece; Mother, mayn't
have a piece?
Mother. —Be still; I can't get up now
I'm busy.
Child.—( Crying aloud .) —l want
piece of cake; I want a piece of cako
Mother. —Be still, I say; I shan't giv
you a bit if you don't leave off crying
Child.—(Still crying.) —l want

Ben. —Yes. I wilh mother, give me

Mother. —There, take that; it seems
as if I never could keep anything in

Child —Well, you bawl-, mother 11
a give it to you. I did.
Of course ' little sister' baicled right
d dustily; and of course ' mother' gave
1 her a piece of cake—the victory ot the
r children over their mother wouldn't

The mother lied; the children cried,
