HINTS TO H-oUsEKEEPERs.

Two or three rose geranium leaves
put in when making crab jelly will
give it a delicious flavor.
Bathing the eyes frequently in salt
water will be found very beneficial
If they are weak or tired.
Nothing made with sugar, eggs and
milk should reach the boiling point
Boston Budget and Beacon.
A pinch Of borax put into the water
each time the face is washed will cor
rect the tendency Of ~unbecoming oili-
ness.
If a cake cracks open while baking.
it is either because the oven is too hot,
and cooks the outside before the in
side is heated, or the cake is made too
stiff.
For brittle finger nails anoint the
nails at the root every night with
vaseline or dip them in warm sweet
oil. This will cause them t. grow bet
ter and they will not split.
Precipitation stains may be removed
from the arms, of white wooden or silk
dresses by sponging them with warm
water into which ammonia has been
poured, and then with clear water, and
finally press the place before it be-
comes quite dry.
A plain lettuce salad is improved If
a small bit of onion is added. A French
cook would rub the salad bowl with a
bit of garlic or toss a single Glove of
garlic in his lettuce before sending to
the table. A teaspoonful of ~tarragon
or chives also makes a delicious addi-
ton.
Every housewife knows that cake
Just removed from the oven should
have plenty of air circulating about
it, otherwise the steam will render it
"soggy." Therefore, manufacturers
have put on the market neat little
wire stands, on which cakes or bread
can be cooled in the best possible man
ner.
The pinch Of salt that gives an add
ed savoriness to almost every dish
should not be put in till the last mo-
ment in cases where any considerable
quantity Of milk is an ingredient. This
bit of carefulness would prevent many
a curdled failure. When a "cruel sep
aration" has actually taken place a
dish may often be made fit to serve by
the brisk application of an egg beater.
Scientific sanitary investigation has
proved that to get rid of flies and
mosquitoes the breeding places of
these insects must be destroyed. Flies
breed in stable manure piles, barn
yards and wherever there are masses
Of filth. Mosquitoes breed in marshes
and swamps, old rain barrels, cave
troughs and wherever there is stag
nant water impregnated with decaying
organic matter.
