clothes are stored, for not only will it
keep away moths, but mice, which
dislike it exceedingly.
Paraffin split on stone floor may
be removed by rubbing bath brick over

err quantity can be made as an expert
ment
Peel half a peck of ounces and cut
in thick slices, dropping them in cold
water to prevent discoloration; then
drain we'll and add two pounds OF
figs, sliced in quarters, and three
oranges cut into cubes; place in pre-
serving kettle and cover with cold
water cooking until the ounces are
soft. Take out the fruit and from the
water in which they were cooked
make a strip, allowing three pounds
of granulated sugar and the white OF

Pin Cushion for the Machine.

When sewing on the machine one
often wastes lot of time having to
look for the pin cushion, which usual
ly is under the sewing machine and
out of sight. A great time saver is to
cut an oblong piece of flannel two in
ches by four and at one end cut hole
the size of pea. Hem all four sides
of the flannel neatly, and buttonhole
stitch the hole. Slip this over the
spindle where the spool belongs be-
fore the spool is placed on it. You
will be able to take pins out of your
work and stick them in this piece of
flannel without stopping the machine.
