rub the pulp through sieve. Put the
juice on to boil, add to it half it's
weight in sugar, and, when boiling, stir
into it gently half the weight of the sug-
ar in stale bread crumbs. These should
be very fine and dry. Boil up once only;
then pour into shallow china or crys-

Household Hints,

For prickly heat make water slightly
slippery with soda and battle with it.
All cold vegetables left over should
be saved for future use in soups or sal
ads
Silver gilt spoons with flower handles
enameled in natural colors make a pref
ty show.
The one thing for which lace paper
may be used and be considered good
form on a table is for cheese.
Wrap your fruit jars in newspaper
and set in cool, dark place. The wrap
ping will prevent the fruit from bleach
ing.
Pretty fireproof china dishes in their
silver wire mountings testify to the
popularity attained of late by casse-
roles, souffles, etc. on our menus.
The candelabrum is to the fore as a
dinner table decoration. The lights,
so1tened by colored shades, enhance the
