TO PREVENT CANDIES BECOMING STICKY.

TO PREVENT CANDIES BECOMING STICKY.
All boiled candies are liable to become
sticky if exposed to the action of the air.
They should be kept in clossly-covered
jars or boxes. The best plan, however,
that we know of toprevent candies, such
as %tafies, peanut bar, walnut bar, clear
candies, nouyat, and all similar goods,
from becoming sticky, which is caused
by their absorbing the moisture of the
atmosphere, is that which we have al
ways adoped when We desired to keep
such articles for any length of time, and
n that has always proved satisfactory /;
When the candies are first made, and
cut into bars or pieces, varnish or cover
each bar or article by means of a soft
brush with a thin alcoholic solution of
gum benzoin. Varnish them all over
with this preparation and let them dry
this forms a thin, impervious skin on
them, which effectually prevents the air
from acting on the candies, besides il
gives them a fire gloss. Benzoin has g
fragrant odor with very little taste, aud
is easily pulverized; it is a stimulant ano
expectorant, and is sometimes used il
pectoral affections. This varish may be
made in advance and kept IN a closely
covered jar or bottle, for use at any time,
1t is also an excellent varnish for gloss
ing chocolate creams, etc.-Confection

WAY TO WASH FLAENELS.

The average wssnerwonan does not
seem to know that every time she ruhs
aer woolsns on the wash board she Is
destroying their sof,ness and pliabllity.
Flanne!s should be squeezed through
strong, warn suds, in which there is a
little ammonis, and not rubbed at all.
The rinse water should also be warm. In
washing a Shetland shawl the same care
should be exercised az il doing up fine
laces. Dip your shawl in a warm lsther
Of boiled soap, and gently squeeze
through your hands. When clean,
plunge into clear, warm water, and when
tinsed squeeze nee more, and pla on a
sheet to dry. If the washing has been
properly done, the shawl will look like
