A reviow of our contributed rec- ipes, however, will show many sensible and economical meat and vegetable dishes, a n d w a shall be glad to receive many more. Here i s o n e from "afrs, L.

Take any scraps of oold meat (corned beef, tongue or soup meat), and chop very fine with a little tat. W i t h a b o u t four cupfuls of c h o p p e d m e a t u s e o n e of boiling water a n d s e t i t o n t h e stove. Season with pepper and salt.

"One o f t h e reasons w h y t h e meat of small furred game is often found to have a strong, unpleasant flavor," said this gentleman, "is because there i s n o t enough care exercised in skinning it. The s k i n s h o u l d b e r e m o v e d in such a masterly (manner that n o t a single b i t o f t h e f u r touches, much less adheres, to the flesh.

The woodchuek i s n o t enough appreciated because its treatment i s n o t understood. There is under each fore a r m a small gland about the size of a b e a n and resembling a b i t o f tallow. If this is n o t r e m o v e d it gives the flesh an unpleasant flavor. Another source of coarseness of flavor is that the animal is allowed to roast i n i t s o w n f a t . To pre- vent this place i t o n a trivet fn tho baking p a n i f i t is t o b e cooked i n t h e oven, b u t t h e best w a y o f a l l is to stew i t a n d make into a p i e exactly a a y o u would chicken.

As the woodchuek hibernates in winter and "ripens" only in summer, I g i t e this b i t o f infor- mation for future use. "When I w a s i n t h e a r m y , " w e n t o n m y friend, "we thought we could beat the nation in cooking opossum.

The following explicit directions from a gentle- man in North Carolina will perhaps exhaust opos- sum lore:— After skinning, cut off the head, tail and feet, wash clean and sprinkle inside and oat with salt. Set in a cool plaeo until next day.

Bake until the meat is cooked, when both should be pleasantlf browned. Bqueese a dash of lemon juice over the rabbit, and serve with-a brown sauce made by stewing the ribs, only tbe joints being used in tho above dish. Another w a y i s t o nreparf a rabbit for roasting, but omit the stufhnf. Bake until rather more than h a l f d o n * ; take from the fire, cut into neat joints a n d l a y i n a deep, well buttered dish; p u t a generous piece of butter on each, pour over then t h e g r a v y w h i c h r u n e from them in cutting u p , t o - gether with a spoonful of chutney.

Dot with bits ot butter and bake for half an hour i n a good oven. Cold, roast squirrels m a y b e utilised i n a number of different ways. Toss in a hut frying pan some dico of bacon, put this i n a baking dish, sprinkle with bri-ad crumbs, minced mushroom, minced onions and parsley; l a y o n t h e sliced meat from the squirrel, season with salt and pepper, a n d s o proceed until the dish is full.

The chicken and celery mayonnaise was laid o n a delicate leaf of lettuce, a n d o n t h e plate beside it a finger roll, about eight inches long, each roll being tied with a narrow ribbon o f a dif- ferent shade.

At the house of a lady somewhat noted f o r h e r Bohemian and unorthodox manner of eutertaining, the sapper consisted of fried oysters garnished with cresses and delicate slices of fried bacon, nas- turtium sandwiches, coffee, wafers and cheese. It was such a supper as gentlemen love. As a rule men care little for cream and fancy cakes and such like gimcracks, and ladies who wish to entertain them acceptably would do well to study their ldio- Syncracies. The sandwiches were a surprise to all present. The leaves o f h e r o w n luxuriant window garden furnished .the material. Spread two vegy thin slices of bread with butter and cut off tfie cruet. L a y o n o n e slice t w o o r three thicknesses of nasturtium leaves, sprinkle lightly with fine salt, add a f e w drops of oil and ditto of lemon juice, and press the remaining slice dowa on it. These are very piquant. Fallowing the hero in "McLeod of Dare," who introduces a leaf of lettuce into his sandwiches, y o u m a y a d d a l*ei of nasturtium to a chicken o r h a m sandwich and notably improve it. *ALE AND* THE TYPHOID FEVE& and i rypl \ PRESIDENT DWIGHT 18KCE8 A>CIBCTJLAB TO QCIET THE APPBKHESSIOMB OT PARENTS. President Dwight. of Vale University, has issued a -circular to allay the fears of parents caused b y t h e typhoid cases among the students. He says exag- gerated reports have been circulated about t h e m a t ter, a n d to show that the nniversity buildings are pot i n a condition to breed a typhoid lnfec v on he q u o t e s f r o m a report made to the faculty b y t h e w e l l k n o w n sanitary engineer. Colonel George K. Waring. J r . , w h o , a s reported i n a a exhaustive ar- ticle i n t h e HtRALD o n t h e typhoid at Yale some time ago. certifies that the drainage o f t h e build- ings is sound and well kgpt. President Dwight cites a report in which the secretary o f t h e Connecticut Sut* Board of Health expresses the opinion that most, i f n o t a l l , o f t h e victims o f t h e recent typhoid eases received the in- fection elsewhere than i n N e w Haven. A statement i s a l s o g i v e n f r o m Drs. Francis Bacon aad Charles A. Lindsiey that Mew Haven is believed t o b e t h e healthiest city o f t h e Atlantic seaboard, aa shown by the smali death rate, and declaring that tha sew- erage system is admirable, while the supply of good sad wholesome water is scarcely surpassed by that of any large city i n t h e country. •it needs only to be added," say* President Dwight, te conclusion, "that, i n t h e cases which have been most recently reported ia aome o f t h e newspapers as cases of typhoid fever, no trace whatever o f t h e disease existed." A QUEEB PLACE TO CAKBT MONEY. 4 A m i d d l e sged colored man entered a Brooklyn car the o t h e r e v e n i n g w i t h a basket containing wine in his hand, evidently sent to make" a delivery. He seemed to have sampled it freely before starting out, f o r h e w a s i n excellent humor. He managed to g e t a seat, aad whoa the c o n d u c t o r c a m e around to'oolleet bis fare he n e v e r b o t h e r e d a b o u t pocket* or pocketbooks. but simply placed his bead to o a * of his capacioua ears and drew forth the shining nickel. T o s a y that conductor sad passengers srare surprised puts it mildly. The conductor on recov- ering himself thereupon remarked, " W h y d o y e a carry your money there. Captain.' Cause it's heady, sir," replied t h e s o n o f H a m . a a d t h e p a * seagers all laughed a t t h e a e w wrinkie te money poach**. It waa observed that he earned an other nickel i n t h e other ear.

Ihey all talk hopefully about it. and say tbat the right- eousness of the claim is beyond all dispute, aad Mr. Cornell is quite cOnfldeut of bis ability t o g e t the bill through the Legislature. YK1.U1W FgVKB'h OPTOarUMITI. Few people of tho youngur generation know what a reign of terror there « a- > n 8tat*n Island whoa the Quaruiitine hospitals were situated o n t b e bluff at TompKinsville, and patients from tbe emigrant ships bringing ail sorts of contagious diseeaes were brought tin re for treatment. In those days the laws governing the sanitation of passenger ships were very f e w a n d loosely mait|tained. o r n o t mate- talned at all. The quarantine station had beea established on Hedloe's Island, and later oa Governor's Island, but when l u 179U yeUow fever was brought t o N e w York, it was decided te remove it farther from the city. Commissioners were ap* pointed to secure a site,/and. against strong opposi- tion, they seized thirty ar-res of land belonging to St. Andrew's Church. The owners and neighbor- ing residents all objected to having the laud p u t t o any snch use, but in spite of their opposition ft was taken under t h e l a w o f e m i n e n t d o m a i n . Hos- pital buildings were p u t u p , a n d inside o f s year there were twenty-rive cases of yellow fever among people living i n t h e vicinity. K«rh following year there was more or less suffering from the iafeotloa of the pin e. and in 1*48 there were 180 oases of contagious disease. The people prayed the Legislature to abate the dreadful nuisance, a n d a committee was seut dowa from Albany to investigate. This committee ta t h e following year recommended tbe immediate re- moval of the Quarantine. In April an a e t w a s passed to remove the station to Sandy Book, but between the ijftpusition of the shipping m*n of the fitatl^of New Jersey it remained letter on the statute books. YellowTever again aroused ttfe people ta late, aad second petition for relief was made. Another act zm was passed, b u t t h e influence of its opponents \ too powerful t o b e resisted. At length a board of health was formed in the town «t i estleton. Rich- ard Christopher was appointed chairman, aad laaao Lee Health Officer. They reported great careless- - ness i n t h e msnsgement of the station and helped to foster a feeling so strong against Dr. Thompson, the* Health Officer o f t h e port, that the latter bad frequently to travel with an armed guard la order to prevent the people front killing him.
