look is gone. Have ready a kettle full of boiling water (3
or 4 quarts)✪ Southern Way of Cooking Rice, salted. Put in the rice and stir until the

Chop 2 large apples fine, 3 handfuls of bread crumbs,
^ cup of raisins, y^. of currants, i of pitted prunes, i
tablespoonful Of cinnamon, i of melted butter; sugar to

them, allowing it to remain awhile ; polish with a dry
flannel.
HOW TO SERVE CHEESE SALAD.
Even an epicure will not scorn a well-made cheese
salad. Here is one of the most attractive ways in which it
may be served:
Use cream cheese and mix with it a very little green
coloring paste. Then roll the cheese into balls the size of
birds' eggs. This can be easily done by using the back or
smooth side of butter-pats. Get fresh young lettuce
leaves; wet them with French dressing and arrange on a
flat plate in little groups to look like nests. Into these
nests put a few cheese balls and serve out one to each
guest.
COUGH MIXTURE.
Half an ounce of antimonial wine, the same quantity
of stick licorice and glycerine, i ounce of paregoric, i of
gum arabic, 5 cents' worth of rock candy, dissolved in i
quart of water. One tablespoonful four times a day is a
dose for an adult. Mrs. S. H. Stevens.
186 MEMORANDUM.
The cook deserves a hearty cuffing
Who serves roast fowl with tasteless stuffing,
For fowls, like women, are at their best
When well and seasonably dressed.
