For the Housewife

Only a good cook realizes that chop
ped parsley for soup or any sauce must
be blanched; this produces bright
green instead of a dun green. The best
method is to place the parsley In
strainer and dip it for a few seconds
in fast boiling water in which there Is
a pinch of soda; then soueze dry in the
corner Of a clean cloth and chop finely.
Those who try this method will at once
realize the improvement it is both to the
taste and color OF the parsley.
In place of the usual soda and water
to clean Il sink when greasy. put
little paraffin off on a piece Of flannel
and rub the sink with it: it will re-
move all grease, thus saving a good
deal of time and labor.
Fer pillow cases, sheets etc, which
have become a bad color. wash thor
oughly with Sunlight soap and hot
water; then put into cold water and
soak all night, allowing a tablespoon
full OF Srubb's cloudy ammonia 10 each
pailful of water; boil and blue the linen
the next day. Linen treated in this
way becmes snowy white.
In putting away valuable rugs and
carpets, cover them with newspapers
before rolling up the printers ink is
a preventive of moth
Sometimes the paper on the bottom
Of cake is difficult to remove. Warm
,the cake slightly and it win peel on
quite easily.
Bootlaces that have been slightly
waxed will not come united.
On taking a cake from the oven wrap
a damp cloth round the cal1e-tin. and
the cake win come out without stick
ing in the least.
An effectual way TO remove all taste
from dripping when using it for a
cake is to-suueeze the juice of lemon
over it and beat it to a cream; it also
makes the cake lighter.
The easiest way to clean decsnters OF
water-bottles is to put about two
tablespoonfuls Of vinegar to one of salt
and shake round for a few minutes
then rinee with clean water

them to her? How bright and jolly the
