In calling your attention to our Fancy Patent Flour, GRAN- ITE, we wish to answer the question so often asked, "Who makes the best flour, and where can we get it?" We would say, after an experience of over a quarter of a century in the manufac- ture of Flour, we flatter ourselves we are able to settle that question fairly. While we do not desire to obtain favor for our GRANITE Flour by disparaging any other brands, we do unhesitatingly say there is no other flour so reliable and uniformly good, that will make so white and puffy bread, biscuit and rolls as the GRANITE Flour. We guarantee every barrel. Now, having brought it to your notice, we hope you will give it a trial. Send to your grocer for it and take no other, or send to us if he does not keep it. By so doing you will be good to your- self m taking our advice, and make home happy. J. G. DAVIS & Co., Granite Flouring Mills, ROCHESTER, N. Y. Capacity 500 Bbls. daily.

For one gallon of soup use ten pounds good beef shank, five quarts of water, one large onion, one carrot, one slice of turnip, three blades of celery, or one tablespoon of celery seed, three doz. pepper corns, six cloves, stick of cinnamon, three teaspoons salt, two sprigs each of parsley, thyme, summer savoy, three bay leaves, one leaf of sage. Put the meat in a soup kettle with cold water. Heat slowly; when the water begins to boil skim carefully, after skimming move the kettle to the back of the range where it will be kept to a boil- ing point for six hours. A slight bubbling at the sides of the kettle is sufficient cooking. At the end of six hours, you add the salt, spice, vegetables and herbs; after adding these simmer one hour longer. Strain immediately and set away to cool. The next day remove all the fat from the stock (which should be in a firm jelly). Beat the whites of three eggs until light, and with shells add to the stock, let come to a boiling point for twenty 8 minutes. Strain through a napkin, and if not ready for use set away in a cold place. When ready to serve add a wineglass of wine. This stock will keep in winter a week. CORN SOUP.

One quart can of tomatoes, one quart of water and one half cup of cream. Rub a small piece of butter full of flour, add cayenne pepper and salt. CREAM TOMATO SOUP.

Carefully pluck the bird, singe it, and wipe thoroughly with a cloth ; draw it, preserve the liver and gizzard, and be particular not to break the gall bag, as no washing will remove the bitter taste it imparts where it once touches.

Cut of! the neck close to the back, but leave enough of the crop skin to turn over; break the leg bones close below the knee, and flatten the breast to make it look plump. Have ready your dressing of bread crumbs, mixed with butter, pepper, salt, one egg and one pint of oysters, straining the liquor off, fill the breast with this and sew the neck over to the back.

Season the chicken well and moisten it with the liquor in which it was boiled, then press it into the mold. Serve in thin slices when cold. CHICKEN. PA 7 TIES.

Two pounds of veal and one fourth pound of pork, chopped fine.

Cut the fruit across the grain in the thinnest slices pos- sible. Lay them in four quarts of water for thirty- six hours. Then boil gently for three hours; and lastly add eight pounds granulated sugar and boil for a half hour, or until it jellies. CHARLOTTE RUSSE No. 2. Dissolve half a box of gelatine in a pint of milk. Let it stand a half hour. Make a custard of one pint of milk, yolks of four eggs, and one cup of sugar. First, cream the eggs and sugar, and put them on to boil with the milk. Add the gelatine and again let them come to a boil. Whip one pint of cream. When the custard is cold and beginning to thicken, stir in a little at a time and and alternately the beaten whites of the eggs and cream. Line a dish with lady fingers and pour in the mixture and set in a cold place. RUSSIAN CREAM. Cover one ounce of gelatine with cold water, and let stand fifteen minutes; then add one cup of sugar and the beaten yolks of four eggs, and stir into one quart of scalding milk. Let it cook two or three minutes, and then cool while beating the whites of the eggs ; add the beaten whites. Flavor and pour into moulds. Serve with whipped cream. 70 ICING. Whites of four eggs, four cups of sugar; pour one-half pint of boiling water over the sugar. Boil until, when dropped in water it is very stiff, but not brittle, pour over the beaten whites of the eggs, While warm add one-half teaspoon citric acid. One tablespoon of vanilla. Icing may be colored yellow by putting the grated peel of an orange or lemon in a muslin bag, straining a little juice through it and squeezing it hard into the beaten egg and sugar. Strawberry juice colors a pretty pink. MERINGUES. Whites of six eggs, one pound confectioner's sugar. Flavor to suit taste. Beat the whites very stiff stirring the sugar in gradually (sift the sugar). Beat until thick, add the flavoring. Butter slightly sheets of white paper and lay upon pieces of hard wood boards. Drop the mixture on the paper a spoonful at a time, in oral form rounded, and thick at the top. Bake in a slow oven, remove from the paper, and join by the under side two by two, the inside will be soft and creamy. These are very nice placed in a dish of floating islands singly, not joined. 7» HENRY L1KLY *. F. 67. Banney At Plum Pudding— Mrs. A. T. Leggett 48 Queen of Pudding -Anon ,(l Snow Pudding— Mrs. F. E.
