Proper Carving.
In carving, ham and beef should be
out thin; pork, lamb, veal and mutton
@ little thicker. When carving a leg
of mutton, take hold of the bone end
with the left hand, then cut thin
slices down to the bone and loosen
each slice by putting the knife flat on’
the bared bone and cutting through.
The slicing should gradually change
direction slightly, so to always out
across the grain.

To Mend Celluloid.
Any article made of celluloid may
be mended with collodion. Scratch
the broken edges to be mended with
a sharp knife until a smooth surface
is secured. Apply the collodion and
press tightly together for several min.
ates. Let stand for at least twenmty-
four hours. Liquid court plaster will
answer as well, since the main ingre-
dient is collodion.
How Is It With You?
When a man’s growing boys are
going a bit wild the old man holds
the mother responsible for them and
in conversation with her about them
he alludes to them as “Those whelps
of yours.” But when they're nice,
long-eared, goody-goody boys he refers
to them as “My sons.”—New York
