Where Nutriment Is Lost. If meat is put into cold water first, for boiling, there will be a constant oozing of albumen from it. There will be found more albumen in the scum that arises than in the meat itself. Mutton, cornbeef, or fish, if first put itto scalding water will have the pores at once plugged by the surface albumen, and thus all that is vital!
precious will be retained. By putting
salt in the water, quick coagulation
is especially aided. The nutritive
quality of fish and its flavor is best
obtained by roasting or baking-Farming.

This Is Worth Knowing.
It may be useful to know that in
case of sudden need, such as often
arises in warm weather, a simple
form of starching is the use of borax
water. A quarter of a teaspoonful of borax in half a teacupful of cold water
will give a dressing like new to em
broidered cuffs and collars or stocks, even those made of linen. The article should be dipped in the borax water, wrung out and rolled out in a dry cloth
for a few moments before ironing.

It was with considerable difficulty that the man achieved his loft couch, but it was at last accomplished, and the car sank to rest. About the middle of the night the train was sidetracked for a short while and, as it happened, was shunted in beside a car loaded with very much discomforted and protesting hogs, and the noise of whose bewailing ascended to the stars.

Men Carry Great Weights.
No draft animal is asked to carry

the same thing, at times.
