How to Make Paper Hangers Paste.

To make bucket of paste, take about
pounds of sifted wheat -four and stir in
enough lukewarm water to make stiff
batter. Keep on stirring until all Jumps
disappear and the batter is smooth; then
pour in boiling hot water briskly until
the batter swells and has cooked ap-
pearance. When ready to use, thin
down with cold water until it can be
spread on the paper easily. Some paper
hangers add about ounces of powdered
alum, but do not use alum in paste
when made for felts or solid gold
grounds. To make rye flour paste, mix
enough sifted rye flour with cold water
to get the consistency of cream. Stir
until all Jumps disappear; then place on
fire to boil. Keep stirring until it
thickens and becomes yellowish in color.
When cool, add enough cold water until
quite thin. Do not use until cold.

Avoid either very hot or very cold

Use oatmeal in drinking water.
Wear flannel waistband.
Use salt in bathing water. Not rock
salt, which is a refuse, but table salt.

How to Distinguish Between a 'White''
and "Black" Frost.

A white" or "hoar" frost results
from the GOODNESS Of the earth, which,
from its great radiating power, is al
ways varying, but "black'' frost re-
suits from the coldness of the atmos-
phere, which is at the time overshad-
owed by dull cloud, giving a dark
ness to everything and leaden appear
ance to the frozen surface of water,
A "blacl1'' frost is said to last because
the temperature of the air is less likely
to vary than that of the earth.
