Spinach and Hot Water.

If housewives and cooks would only
remember to wash spinach in scalding
water, they would not only get it
much cleaner, but kill all insects and
worms which may happen to be cling
ing to the under part of the leaves.
Also the process is a much quicker
one than when cold water is used, and
the spinach itself takes on a fresh
greenness that is unexpected consider
ing the temperature of the water. 1t
should not, however, be washed until
Immediately before putting into the
saucepan.

SHOWER BATH AS TONIC.
Beneficial for Those Physically Able
to Take Them.

Not everyone is strong enough to
stand a shower bath, but when taken
properly it has a tonic effect.
The best test whether it is beneficial
or harmful is whether one is in a glow
afterwards or feels creepy for several
hours.
The shock is not good for anyone
with a weak heart, and no one who is
not well should use a shower except
by the advice of a physician.
AS a rule, the best time for a cold
shower is on rising in the morning;
the system is strongest then.
Do not stay under the shower too
long, minute is quite long enough,
unless one has exceptional strength.
1t is well to prepare for the cold
shower by dashing cold water on you
first or by taking tepid shower and
gradually getting it colder.
Never take a cold shower when chill
ly. The cold feeling is a sign that
your physical condition is not up to
the mark.
Follow a shower by hard rubbing
and by a few physical exercises. Some
women go back to bed for five minutes
after the bath before dressing. The
rest overcomes any shock from the
cold water.
DO not stoop forward unduly in tax
ing a shower. 1t is not good for the
spine to receive the first shock of cold
at the base of the brain or between
the shoulders.

Comfort for the Cold Fearer.

The mother who persists in dress
ing her children in heavy clothes will
not be as pleased as will her daugh-
ter to hear that physicians are at
tributing the lessening susceptibility
of our women to colds to unlined
lingerie waists and cutaway coats.
Each winter there are more and
more summer frocks and blouses worn.
while the low collars of last season
seemed direct pneumonia breeders to
the old-fashioned mother.

Pie Crust for One Pie.

Six tablespoons melted lard and
tablespoons warm water, a good pinch
of salt, flour enough to make a stiff
dough. Take one-half of the mixture
for lower crust, then roll out top
crust, spread with melted lard Sift
a very little flour over top. Before
putting in the oven cut slit in the
top crust, put it under faucet and wet
with cold water. This makes the
crust fiaky This recipe will make
one pie.

Toys of Glass,

So far have we gone in the hygiene
of the ursery that we will now pre-
sent children with toys of glass in
stead of painted wood. The glass is
so thick that it is barely possible that
a child could break it. They are in.
vented to keep a child from sucking
the paint off wooden toys, but they
are not inexpensive.

After a reign of nearly a decade

one and one-half cups boiling milk,

cloves. one-half teaspoon ginger, and
two eggs, beaten lightly. Mix in order
given. Line pie tin with paste, put

and bake in moderate oven. This is
an excellent substitute for squash pie.

Cleaning French Gloves.

This excellent cleanser is used prin-

Celery Tops.

In the winter, when celery is plenti-
full, one housekeeper cuts off the
leaves and light green ends and puts
the leaves into a pasteboard box to
dry. When dry she packs them in a
glass jar to be ready to use for flavor
ing soups and dressings later on.

In Europe the government
has developed the postoffice de
partment SO that it renders to
the people a service unknown
iii this country though here
that service is needed more
than anywhere else. One feat
ure of the European postoffice
department is the parcels post,
under which small packages
can for Il reasonable though al
most a nominal sum be trans
ported almost any distance
with safety and dispatch. Here
the railroads have turned over
the express business to the ex-
press companies. These com
panies have formed a combina-
ton that amounts to trust
ana they nave dennltely post
poned the adoption by the gov
eminent of the parcels post.
There are six reasons-one adj
vocate of the parcels post said
in the senate-against adding
this feature to the postoffice de
partment. and these six rea-
sons are the six express com
panies that divide the business
among them. These six com
panies are the Adams, the Am
erican. the Pacific. the South
ern. the United States and
