An old housekeeper has sent me the follow- ing, which is excellent: 'Make a brine of four gallons of cold water, six quarts of salt, a piece of alum the size of a walnut and one and one- half ounces of saltpeter, stirring till salt is dissolved. This should float an egg; if it will not, add more salt. Put In either small or medium-size cucumbers and leave them in brine from 14 to 24 hours depending upon how salty you wish the pickles to be. Remove pickles from this brine, let them stand in cold water for 24 hours . with grape leaves between layers of the cucumbers. During the last five hours put a large piece of ice upon the pickles to chill and harden them. Boil cider vinegar for several minutes and turn it over the cucumbers which have been drained from the ice water and piaced in a crock. Put a piece of clean white paper over all, with a layer of cotton batting on top. Tie more cotton over Cfficienf Je fer the Three Day Method, which I will describe here: Wipe four quarts of unripe cucumbers, put them into a stone crock, add ome cup of salt dissolved in two quarts of boiling water and let stand for three days. Drain the cucumbers from this brine, then put the same brine over the fire and bring it to the boiling point, Pour it over the cucumbers and again let it stand on them for three days. Repeat this process stil] again (that is, bringing the same brine to the boiling point, pouring it over the cucumbers and letting stand three days), then drain the cucum- bers and pour over them one gallon of boiling water in which one table- spoon of powdered alum has been dissolved. Let the pickles stand in the alum water for five or six hours, then drain, Now make a spiced vinegar by add- ing two sticks of cinnamon, two tablespoons of allspice berries, three red peppers and two tablespoons of whole cloves to one gallon of cider vinegar, bringing the vinegar to the boiling point then simmering for ten minutes. Cook the drained cucum- bers In this vinegar for ten minutes (a few at a time), then place them in a stone jar and pour the hot, spiced vinegar over them.

THE KING AS A BHOT, London Express. It is always a pleasure to shoot with the king, since His Msjesty is not only a first-class shot, but is extremely well versed in what may be called the etiquette of the sport, and is insistent, moreover, that this etiquette shall be regarded most strictly by all who are in the fleld with him. Some years ago a youthful sports- man called his host on one side and asked if he could be allotted some other place in the butts, since he had been placed next to the then Prince of Wales, and he feared that this would mean leaving all the birds to him, or himself to the charge of baving spoilt the royal sport. "Don't be an ass," replied the host bluntly. "You will find yourself next to the best sportsman in England. Take your birds as they come to you, and don't worry about him; he is quite capable of seeing that he gets his fair share of the bag." The man in question subsequently confessed that it was the best day's sport he age | had ever enjoyed. The king remains today one of the best shots in the kingdom, and he would certainly have to be placed among the first dozen, either with & gun or a sporting rifle. None of his sons can approach him in this respect, and last season demonstrat. ed most conclusively that he could easily out-shoot them, gives any- like a fair run of luck. favorites, without whick nl for cool evenings or motoring.
