Is an easy matter to raise them her
Felf and that for very little money
outlay. II she has a spare corner in a
healthful cellar or shed, let her place
there some paas containing a manure

will have fair growth of mushrooms

cents. rG

oven Should Be soruhhed.

Very few of the tidiest housekeep,
ers recognize the necessity of having
the oven washed out. Especially after
lamb, poultry or fish has been baked,
the walls and floor of the oven should
be scrubbed carefully with a stiff
brush and strong soapsuds, to which a
small quantity of washing soda has
been added. Pies, cakes and biscuits
sometimes have an unaccountable
greasy odor due to lack of this pre-
caution.

PuHs Are the Prevailing Fancy

One might reasonably have fore
seen that the shirrings which have
been used SO lavishly upoon all the
frocks this summer would inevitably
run into puffs as the season advanced.
In Paris the fancy for puffs in every
thing is running riot; and it must be
confessed that while it takes master
hand to manage them the effect is
rarely becoming except to very slen-
der figures and then only when the
wearer is of gracious height.
