Straw matting should always be
washed with warm water and Salt-
Water alone would turn it yellow.
The salt has a counteracting effect.
THINGS ONE SHOULD KNOW
Never water the tops of your
ferns. Just pour the water around
the pot in a deep dish and let the
earth soak up water through the
bottom of the pot.
—O—
To clean painted walls, wipe them
first with a cloth wet in kerosene
and wait 15 minutes. Then wash
with warm soapsuds, but do not put
soap on the cloth, or the paint will
be streaked.
—O—
To remove ink from linen, dip the
article in milk and let it soak for
about two hours; then take out and
wash with soap w'hile the milk still
remains on the spot.
o o o
Plan your menus to contain the
lighter foods for the spring season.
Fyesh vegetables, greens, fruits and
berries should be bountifully used in
the diets.
—O—
When making fruit pies dampen
the edge of the pastry with milk in
stead of water—it holds better, and
the juice is not so liable to boil over.
o o o
Dishes that have become brown
and burned from constant baking
may be easily cleaned after they have
been steeped for a while in borax
and water.
o o o
Pastry can be made without butter
if one wineglass of salad oil is used
to a pound of flour. The oil should
be mixed with water and stirred into
the paste.
Brooms and all sweeping brushes
should be hung up when not in use.
If left standing on the bristles these
become bent and will not do their
work properly.
It happened that two men bearing
the same name, one a clergyman, the
other a business man, both lived in
the same city. The clergyman died,
and about the same time his neigh
bor went to southern California.
When the business man arrived there
he sent his wife a telegram inform
ing her of his safe journey, but un
fortunately it was delivered to the
widow of the late preacher. What
was the surprise of the good woman
to read, “Arrived safely—heat terri
