Household Hints
v '
Using Up Fat.
You can use every particle of
bacon fat to good purpose in
various ways. It can be used to
season anything where bacon is
used, such as spinach or beans.
It can be used as the shortening
in a dark or spice cake, or instead
of butter in preparing poultry
dressing. Or, again, it will make
a very crisp and tasty piecrust.
Some prefer to use half bacon
fat and half lard. Others use all
bacon fat. Chicken fat tried out
is excellent for cookie shortening,
for shortening spice cakes, choco
late cake, or half lard and half
chicken fat for piecrust.
One Egg Cup Cakes.
Take one-quarter cup butter or
butter substitute, one cup sugar,
one egg, two-thirds cup milk, one
and two-thirds cups flour, three
teaspoons baking powder, one
tablespoon vanilla. Cream butter
and sugar; add well beaten egg
milk and flour sifted with baking
powder and beat. Add flavoring
and bake 25 minutes in moderate
oven.
Raspberry Whip.
Take one and one-quarter cups
raspberries, one cup powdered
sugar, white one egg. Put ingre
dients in bowl and beat with wire
whisk until stiff enwugh to hold
in shape; about 30' minutes will
be required for birating, Pile
lightly in sherbet cups, chill and
serve with whipped cream.

Fashion Suggestions
Two yardsticks, one tacked in
an inconspicuous corner of the
kitchen and another in the sewing
room, are a great convenience
when one must do measuring in
a hurry.
Wall paper remnants may be
used by lining drawers and
shelves with them. They look
better than newspapers and are
more easily put in place. An in
expensive oilcloth is nicer than
paper for these uses as it can be
easily cleaned with a damp cloth
when dusty.
Pink is the prevailing color for
evening gowns in London.
