HOUSEHOLD SUGGESTIONS.

Eggs will cook much more evenly
II the frying pan is covered.
a candle may be made to fit into
any candlestick by dipping it into
very hot water.
Don't salt meat before the cook
Ing. Add it after the meat is cooked
or when nearly done.
A pan OF lime set on the shelves
near jellies, fruits and jams will pre-
vent their molding.
If salad dressing curdles when be-
ing mixed, add little cold water,
stir quickly and it will become quite
smooth.
New stockings should always be
washed before being worn, for the
washing causes slight shrinkage and
makes them wear better.
Celery may be kept fresh several
days if after it has been cleaned and
washed it is put in an ordinary glass
fruit jar, covered tight and placed
in cool place.
A harmless and cleanly treatment
to drive away mice is to saturate a
cloth with cayenne pepper in solu-
ton and stuff it into the hole. Dry
cayenne thrown about will keep ants
and coclroaches away.
Never let bird cage hang in a
room where the gas is alight unless
1t is exceptionally well ventilated.
The air near the ceiling is always
the most impure at night. Make a
rule of always setting Dickey's cage
on the table at night and his health
will improve.
Wash chamois feathers in soapsuds
and have the suds just luRewarm and
squeeze the leather in the water to
remove the dirt, change the suds as
they become soiled, and rinse finally
in soapy water, for thus the leather
win be soft when dry, whereas If
rinsed in clear water it would be stiff
and hard.
