Short Suggestions.

Bottles should never be cleaned with
shot. as there is risk OF lead poison
ing.
Do not scrape a frying pan. as It is
liable afterward to burn. Instead. rub
well with a hard crust of bread and
wash in hot water.
A new lampwick should be soaked
in vinegar. If this Is done there will
be neither smell nor smoke, and q
much brighter light will be given.
Before cleaning out a fireplace. sprin-
kle good handful of tea leaves among
the ashes. This makes the ashes lift
easier and prevents the dust from fly
ing about the room.
One of the best sauces for fish is
made by chopping tablespoonful of
capers very fine and then rubbing
them through sieve with a wooden
spoon. Mix this with an ounce of cold
butter and season with salt and pep
per.
To keep palms green and fresh look
ing and remove the dusty and faded
Of the leaves. wipe each
leaf separately with cloth dipped in
milk. This will at once give back
their natural gloss and fresh green ap-
pearance.
Very often cakes stick to the tin, and
it is difficult to get them out without
breaking the cake. Wiring out cloth
in cold water and wrap it round the
sides and bottom of the tin. Leave it
for five minutes, then tip it up. and the
cake will slip from the tin without
