"The next point, perhaps, is to have vessels of suitable size, as it is a waste of time and energy to cook a pint of something in a three-gallon kettle. Third, the utensil must be convenient to handle, and this de pends -on whether the vessel is light in weight, and the bail set exactly in the center and the handle easy to grasp, because of both insulation and shape. Again, the lip of the kettle should be the right place for easy pouring; still again, is vtne vessel so shaped that a cover will fit it readily? Whether or not it is easy to clean is a very important consideration. There should be no corners in the roasting pan, and there should be no seam any where inside the article. It should be molded from one piece and the cor- almost like silver. Of course, it is a little heavy and it is rather expen- it . sive. , "Does it never tarnish?".

Once in a great while there will be found a person who comes out of a faint with difficulty. In such a case the introduction of hot water into the lower bowel may be resorted to, or perhaps a mustard poultice over the heart. Always remember, however, that plenty of air, lowered head and loose clothing are necessary, and that such a thing as death in a faint is almost unknown. In fainting the face is pale, the pulse weak and breathing shallow ; if the face be red, the pulse normal, and the breathing noisy and labored, it is probably apo- 'V? responded John, because I help ntex :n which case the head should my mother do the preserving.

"W ' . . the handle be set on the inside, af fording a place for grease and dirt to stick. - The inside of a cooking vessel should be like our characters, round and smooth, and free from cracks and blemishes. Even the tea kettle and coffee pot should have large enough openings to get the hand in, though, of course, the coffee pot should be rinsed with clean water and a brush, and never with a dish rag and soapy water. The bottom' of the vessel should be wide, so as to afford as large a surface of contact as. possible. And, last, we should ask ourselves the question: could this corrode and make the food poisonous? The old- fashioned , copper vessels, and the had another that put the inside of the coffee percolator over a gas flame to burn out the holes, and melted it. If food is allowed to sour in aluminum it could form dangerous compounds, and if it becomes discolored it must be scoured with fine steel wool, sand or ashes." said Dan, learnedly.
