Arc PSBMk At home it is quite impossible to produce all the many varieties of ioe cream without more or lees care and expense. "Tbe heoret of making goed ice cream of any grade," said Miss Juliet Corson, whose re- cipe* are here given, " lies in the freexing. Tbe old way of frssrtng cream, which is still in use among small confectioners, con- Hinted of occasionally stirring tbe cream while it was freezing in a tin oan, set in a tub of ice and salt. A more easy snd expe- ditious method is within tbe reach of the average housekeeper in these days of patent freezers. Tbe asms principle underlies all the best known patsnts . . , the mixing of tbe cream by a wooden beater, which re- volves inside tbe can by the same motion that slightly changes the position of tbe oan in the outer tub of ice and salt. This freezing mixture should be composed of three parts of ornshtd ioe to one of coane salt, of which care should be taken that it does not reach high enough around the sides of the can to penetrate to the in- terior and so spoil the cream. Tbe water formed in tbe outer tub by tbe melting of the freezing mixture need not be drawn off while the cream is being frosen unless it is likely to get into tbe o*u, eacause the water is intensely oold. If it is dssired to pack the cream after it is fro/en, the water may be drawn off and enough more ioe and salt placed around the can so reach nearly to the top. Ice cream packed in this way can be kept over night, or longer, if the freezing mixture is properly renewed. When ioe cream is molded ' or packed in moulds of fancy shspee, all the epenings should be closed with butler or oiled paper fixed about tbe apertures of tbe moulds with paste or gum Iragaoantb. " Ice creams of tbe most ordinary sort are made with milk thickened with arrow- root or corn starch in the proportion of a tablespoonful to a quart dissolved in oold ater and then boiled in tbe milk, which is cooled, sweetened and flavored before it is frozen. The sort of ice cream usually mads at home is composed ot milk with a small proportion of cream, with eggs and sugar added to it ; tor instance, dissolve half a pound of sugar in a quart of milk place it over the lire and lei it heat to boiling point ; meantime beat three eggs to cream, pour tbe boiling milk into them and then return to the fire and stir until it begins to thicken ; then at ones remove it from tbe fire; stir until it is smooth ; then flavor it cool it. and when it is cool freeze it accord ing to direction given. Frozen custard it made in tbs same way, only five eggs at least are added to a quart ot milk. French ice-cream, thick and yellow, is made by boiling a quart of cream with a long vanilla bean, aud cooling and strain ing it ; then the yelks ol twslve eggs are beaten smooth with a quarter ol a pouni of sugar , the cream U then mixed with the eggs aud stirred ovsr the fire until i begins to thicken ; directly tbs cream begins to thicken, take it from ths fire enc stir it for flvs minutes . then cool ant freeze it."

We have all seen on tbe plains here, swys tbe Coluia SUN, beautiful sheets of water in appearance, in which men would look like giants, sheep like buffslo. and small bouses like great castles.

A Held of bright yellow poppies was raised to an apparent height of about twenty feet, so that they appealed as an immense bouquet set in a inset of water.

Medical men, says the New York Timti, will be relieved by the resull which has en reached m a singular cess before tbe English court*. Tbe plaintiff was tbe atber of a child wLoiufferedfrom "croup."

But Lord Coleridge told the second ury that the doctors were right in telling ibe father to free tbe tube, and a verdict 'or ths defendants was found.

' 1 want something nsw and lively for Monday night." Dan went M work and by Sunday afternoon he bad ;be words commencing " I Wish I Was) In Dixie." This expression was not Southern, rat appeared among the circus people of the North. In early fall, when nippUg froete r ould ovsrtake tbe tented wanderers, the Hoys would think of the warmth ot tbe South, and the common expression would be: "Well, I wish I was in Dixie." This gave the catch -line, and the rest of the song wss arigioal. On Monday morning it was re- hearsed and highly commended, and at night a crowded house caught up the refrain and half of them went home singing Dixie. The song became tbe rage, and W. W. New- comb's, Buckley's Minstrels sod others gave Dan 9600 eaob for the privilege of using it. Mr. Werlean wrote to Dan Emmett to secure tbe copyright, but, with- out waiting for a reply, published it with words from Mr. Peters. Pood, ot Hew York, secured it from Km'nett for 9600; but VVerlean sold tbouaudn of copies with- out giving bim a uiuael.
