DOMESTIC HINTS.

BAKED FISH.
Clean a good-sized fish, either cod, salmon or shad; dry it well in cloth, rub inside and out with a mixture of pepper and salt. Make a dressing of bread, butter, and a little onion if liked. Fill the body of the fish, fasten it to keep in the dressing, then dip the surface of the fish into beaten egg and roll it in cracker crumbs. Put bits of butter, pepper and salt over the surface. Then lay a trivet in a dripping pan, put the fish on, place it in a hot oven, and baste frequently. When done, take it up on a hot dish and serve with sliced lemon and parsley laid over the fish.

PRUNE PUDDING.
Stew a pound of prunes until they are soft, remove the stones, add sugar to taste, and the whites of three eggs beaten to a stiff froth. Make a puff paste for the bottom of the pudding dish. After beating the prunes and eggs together until they are thoroughly mixed, spread them on the crust. Bake for half an hour or until you are sure the crust is done.

MARBLE CAKE.
Light part—two cups of white sugar, one cup of butter, a half-cup of sweet milk, whites of four eggs, 2 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder, two cups of flour.
Dark part—One cup of brown sugar, a half-cup of molasses, one cup of butter, one-fourth of a cup of sour milk, half teaspoon of soda, yolks of four eggs, flour to thicken, and flavor.

POTATO SALAD.
One quart bowl mashed potatoes, two finely minced onions, one teaspoonful made mustard, one scant half-teaspoonful pepper, three tablespoonfuls melted salt pork, ham or bacon fat, mixed with six tablespoonfuls sharp vinegar. Mix all well through the potato at least two hours before serving. A cheap and good salad.

BROILED POTATOES.
Cut cold boiled potatoes into slices a third of an inch thick. Dip them into melted butter and fine bread crumbs. Place in a double broiler and broil over a fire that is not too hot. Garnish with parsley, and serve on a hot dish; or season with salt and pepper, toast till a delicate brown, arrange on a hot dish, and season with butter.

FAGLIATELLI.
Make a paste of flour, salt and water, which roll out as thinly as possible to the size of a tea saucer, and cut it into strips the third of an inch wide. Throw into boiling water, and give a few boilings, then remove to cold water, drain on a sieve, and use as macaroni. It is also good in soups.

PUDDING SAUCE.
One egg beaten to a froth, one cup of white sugar, half a cup of butter, two-thirds of a cup or more of hot water poured on it: flavor with a little lemon and nutmeg. If more water is used take a little cornstarch, dissolve and pour in.

SALLY LUNN.
To a quart of flour add four eggs beaten up with one cup of sugar, one pint of warmed milk, with a teaspoonful of melted butter in it, and 2 1/2 teaspoonfuls of yeast powder. Bake like pound cake.

GINGER SNAPS.
One pint of molasses, one teaspoonful of soda, butter size of an egg, ginger, and flour enough to roll very thin. Bake quickly.
