Vinegar and salt will remove the brown

with ease il 1t is first rubbed with salt and

Box a recipe for making cranberry pies
I have heard that they are very delicious,
and I would like to try them. l admire
your woman's page very much, and read 1t
daily. MRS. H. j. n.
Cranberry Pie-For one pint of cranber-
ries, chopped, use one cupful of sugar and
one-third of a cupful of molasses. Dissolve
one tablespoonful of cornstarch in the same
amount of cold water and stir into 1t two
thirds of a cupful of boiling water. When
cool, mix with the cranberries and add one
teaspoonful of vanilla. Bake with two
crusts.
Please tell me on the woman's page a
harmless preparation for darkening the
hair and oblIqe. RED HEAD.
Am sorry. but I cannot answer your
question. Would advise you to leave your
hair as it is.
Please let me know how to slip a rubber
plant, and also how to care for a large
one which seems to be dying, and obHge,
X. II.
The easiest way to slip the plant is to
put the slip In a bottle of water and keep
it in an even temperature, about 70 de-
grees, until the roots sprout. Then it can
be potted. Another way is to put the slip
in damp sand or ashes at an even, warm
temperature. You probably have had the
large plant outdoors all summer, and now
that you have brought 1t indoors it loses
some of its leaves. because of the change
of temperature. 1t is not dying and will
come out all right, If the supposition as
stated is correct.

wouldn't this be the jolly world if
women wore conventional clothes, just
as men do" said Mary as she slipped
a cup of tea with a party of girl
friends in a downtown restaurant a
few days ago. Men have so little
bother selecting their clothes, while
women, poor things, fret and hurry
frcm n shop to another trying to find
something that looks well on them and
still suits the size of their purses"
you would be the first one to find
fault if our styles were conventional"
ventured the girl with the big brown
eyes. "You know you like pretty
clothes, and If you had to wear a suit
just like someone else's you would be
most unhappy. Now own up, wouldn't
your"
"Well, perhaps I wouldn't like to be
dressed just like every other woman
I meet, but 1 do hate this bother
and fuss about choosing new clothes.
l went into nearly every store on
Broad street today looking for a new
suit, something that would be pretty
and still suit my style"
"Ohi then you weren't looking for
something conventional; you were
looking for something to suit your in
dividuality. Don't o think you are
a little bit Inconsistent" asked her
friend.
"Now, if you are going to blame me
for trying to be suited with m pur-
chase, l suppose I'll have to admit in
consistency. However, 1 came home
without buying anything. There were
so many styles 1 couldn't decide just
what I wanted"
She's only one of many who has the
same story to tell. With the advent
of the winter season man a woman
finds herself in need of an entire new
wardrobe, and the problem of how to
get the best value for her money, and
still be well dressed, gives many q
woman something to think about.
Perhaps more than n woman
wishes our styles were conventional
and that we did not a to give sc
much time and thought to dress.

SUGGESTIONS FOR
THE HOUSEWIFE.

Cut a. groove along the side of the cork
Of a medicine bottle; put back in the bottle
and it will be easy to count the drops
one by one without pouring too fast.
To make an iron run smoothly, get some
leaves from evergreen trees. Rub hot
irons on them, and they will iron without
sticking to starched clothes. This is used
in old Virginia, Leaves may be dried for
use.
Furs that have become fiat and oily look
ing about the neck may be made fresh ana
like new by rubbing the fur the wrong
way with hot bran. Furs that have been
wet should never be hung in front OF a
stove or an open fire to dry.
For mud stains on dresses dissolve a
little carbonate Of soda in water and with
1t wash the mud stains, Another plan is
to rub the stains with a cut raw potato,
afterward removing the potato juice by
rubbing 1t with a flannel dipped in water.
1t is a good idea to save all lids from
fruit baskets to use as mats on kitchen
tables under the tea kettle and hot vessels
or as trays upon when to place jars when
canning vegetables or fruit in boiling
water in a large vessel. They can be
burned when soiled.
1t is sometimes a difficult matter to md
an appropriate place in which to beat rugs
when living in cities or large towns. Fake
an OLD spring mattress, place it on the
| sidewalk. lay the rug face down on this
and beat. All the dirt will fall through
and may be swept away.
Benzine. naphtha and alcohol are best
for cleaning the glass OF pictures and dc
not require the care that water does wher
used for this purpose, If the water leaks
through some unseen crack or crevice and
fln0s its way on to the picture 1t Will leave
a stain or mark, while the three former
will dry at once and leave no stain oil
mark whatever, and at the same time they
will be found to give the glass a brilliant
polish without rubbing.

A NEW IDEA.

Many women have been obliged or have
preferred to replace long silk gloves, not
by a new pair, but by short ones, which
they sew to the perfectly good arms of
the old ones.
This seam, however, makes an unsightly
line, which Immediately proclaims economy
to all the world. One clever woman GRO
cheted instead Of sewing the parts to-
gether.
The crccheted band was in a pretty pat
tern, and of silk to match the gloves in
shade, was an ornament in place of a
blemish, and for months her friends haunt
ed the stores in a vain search for a coun-
terpart.
Not only does the crocheting improve
the appearance of the old gloves, but 1t
also lengthens them, and relieves that dis
tressingly short feeling often present in
inexpensive kinds.

winters Coming.

The approach of winter has no ter
rors for the young and healthy. The
more the wind blows the better they
like it, and the deeper the snow the
greater their opportunities for fun.
Laughing and shouting and running,
they treat the coolest day IS uncon-

while the poor shivering grown-ups
stand around and wonder at their
vitality.
The grown-ups could be just as I'M

Exercise, get your blood to circu-
