Put half of pound of butter in ba-
sin and heat it until it is cream, and
the yellows of two eggs, the grated rind
of two lemons, the juice of one, and
tablespoonful of pulveriZed sugar. Mix
them thoroughly; Inca dish or pan with
short pastry dough and pour in the
mixture bake in moderately hot oven,
and you will then have what is called
"Lemon Cheese Cake"
~
If there is water at the bottom of your
dish of custard it is because it was
baked too long a time. In order to pro-
duce excellent custard the following
hints may prove of inestima5le value.
Beat five eggs thoroughly with four ia
blespoonfuls of sugar. Flavor to suit
the taste. Bake in quick oven fifteen
minutes. Test with knife; when the
custard cuts like butter it is done, and
all the baking after this stage has tend
ency to make it watery.

Don't throw away the tooth brushes
after they are worn off from use in the
toilet room. Take them to the kitchen.
You will find them of great help in
cleaning various small articles, where
the scrubbing brush will not go. They
are one of our indispensables in clean
ing the gasoline stove.

SteWed onions will be found health
full as we'll az appetizing dish during the
coming weeks. Those of the size of mar
bles are the incest and tenderest. Cut
off all the green tops, peel, wash and
put in stew pan and little water,
salt and pepper. Let them cook until
thoroughly soft, Then add milk or
cream as the case may be. When cream
is to be had, use it by all means, as it
adds wonderfully to the taste. Butter
must not be used sparingly either. If
preferred a little thickening may be
used. They are found very healthful
in this way, and great part of that
"Oniony" odor is lost also.

Fresh peas are luxury many of our

Windows should certainly drop at the
top as well as rise at the bottom; and
in old houses, where they do not, it can
be easily remedied. Remove the narrow
strip of wood that holds the upper sash
in place, and fasten a wood or metal
button just beyond the sash, SO that the
latter will rest on it when it is turned
across. Put two more at different points
below, to hold the sash when lowered.
If it we're not that the majority of our
houses are poorly built and fresh air is
always trying to insinuate itself through
the loose joints and cracks. we should be
more debilitated people than we now
are.
The upper sash should be lowered, and
the bottom one raised to suit the eeveri-
ty of the weather, the direction of the
wind, and the position of the bed.
Though as regards the latter, if thereon
is large it can be easily shifted from one
position to another. Inextreme weather
a fairly good circulation OF air can be
kept up by raising the lower sash two
inches above the sill and having strip
OF board or sand bag to fit under it..
l know there is little grace or beauty
in Holland shades and short sash cur
tains, but when combined they make a
perfect chamber curtain for all practi-
cal purposes.
If, however, your aesthetic taste cam
not tolerate their stiffness, then sub
stitute some light airy draperies that
subdue but do not shut out the light.
Heavy draperies should never be
used in chambers that are in common
use. They not only shut out the sun,
but absorb dust and other more iniuri-
Gus particles.
A hardwood and stained floor, with
rugs, is the best kind for chambers but
if you persist in using all-over carpets,
compromise enough to paint six inch
wide strip around the outer edge of the
floor, and tack your carpet at least four
incht s from the Dashboard. This will
leave no space for dust to lodge.
The walls of sleeping apartments
should be either painted or calcimined.
Ii they were repapered every year it
would not matter, but paper will re-
main clean-looking for years, when in
fact it is loaded with foul matter that
gives off poisonous gases. If paper is
already on the walls, see that it is thor
oughly removed before new is applied.
Never was chamber furniture as hand
some and low priced as now. But, alas,
many OF us must economic closely and
continue to use the old Fortunately
for us, the most important part of
bed-namely, the springs-is nova
bic attachment, and can be had of the
most approved style to fit any bedstead.
Woven wire are more expensive than
some other styles, but by far the best.
AS for the bed itself, so that it is not
feathers, it matters little so far as health
is concerned, whether it be hair, felt,
husk or excelsior mattress, or tick
filled with loose husks or straw. The
latter kind, thoroughly shaken and
aired every morning, and renewed twice
year, is far more healthful bed than
the highest grade hair, mattress used
