ToothsOme Sandwiches
Grind together a cup of English wal
nut meats, the whites of six hard
boiled eggs, and three tablespoonfuls
of chopped sweet pickles. Mash the
yolks, add one teaspoonful of salt,
one-half teaspoonful of pepper, one
of prepared mustard, one tablespoon
full of melted butter, and thin with
one half cupful of vinegar. Mix all
together and spread on thin slices of
bread.
Squash Pickles
Small green squash are as good or
better than cucumber for either sweet
or sour pickles. Soak them in brine
for few days, freshen and put in
vinegar the same as cucumber.
A Fine Liniment
A fine liniment for man or beast,
internal or external use, is made of
parts Of turpetine and sweet oil: put
into this all the camphor gum 1t will
cut. The camphor-gum should be put
into the turpentine before the oil is
mixed with it, or it will cut more gum
than is needed.
For Cut or Wound
Put into the wound plenty of finely
pulverized rosin. This has a tend
ency to stop the bleeding; and it
keeps out all the poion and heals up
the wound Immediately. Wrap the
wound well, and do not remove the
bandage for several days.
Eyelet Embroidery
In working eyelet embroidery, be-
fore piercing the eyelet, with a small
scissors, cut a thread or two each
way, and the hole will be smooth and
no danger of having threads drawn
even in the thinnest material, as is
often the case when the hole is pun
ched without cutting.
To Wash White Skirts
When washing white skirts trim
med with embroidered ruffles, if a
soft brush is used on the fabric, the
dirt will be easily removed from the
little openings.
Cleaning Wall Paper
Soiled wall paper can be cleaned
upon the walls without injuring the
most delicate or the highly-colored.
Dip whiewash brush in hot vinegar
and brush all over it very quickly,
but thoroughly You will be surpris-
becomes When dry, the paper will
be fresh and clean as if newly laid.
Enamel FinishFor Shelvs.
An excellent idea for pantry
shelves is to give them two coats of
ordinary white paint, mad then a
third and finishing coat of white
enamel, letting each coat dry well
before applying the next. AS soon
as the enamel dries wash it over
with cold water, and it will harden
quickly. If the shelves have never
been painted, give the knots (if any
coat of shellic before painting, or
they will show through the white
paint. The shelves need no cover,
and the enamel is easily wiped clean
with damp cloth. No soiled paper
notice the improvement. Shelves
kept clean all the time.
Delicious Marshmallaws.
Dissolve two tablespoonful of gel
atine in two tablspoonfuls of water;
take one tea-cup of granulated sugar
and one-half tea-cup water, and boil
it until it hairs" then pour into
the gelatnie, beating about fifteen
minutes: pour into a pan we'll cover
ed with corn starch, and when cool
cut and roll in sugar and starch we'll
mixed. ....
Try This For Burn
Take the white of an egg and lard
and stir together till it is a salve
(the quantity of lard to be regulated
by the size of the egg)-spread on
soft cloth, and apply. The effect will
