Some Kitchen Hints.

lowing way: One teaspoonful of tur-
pentine put into half gallon Of water.

the shade to dry.

sheets and all rough pieces can be sue
cessfully treated this way. This means
considerable saving of fuel and
labor
Not long ago l banished from the
kitchen wardrobe all the checks. den
inns and ticking aprons and re-
placed them with a smaller number OF
oilcloth and waterproof aprons. long
skirted, bibbed and pocketed. No
form of work could spoil or stain
them; they called for no tedious wash
ing or ironing, but could be cleansed
like a slate with a moist cloth.-The

To Serve Ices.

Get paper watermelon mold, which
will cost about 25 cents, and line it
throughout with melted parafin so
that the moisture will not ruin the
mold. Line this slightly with green
ice cream, then put in layer of white
ice cream. Have a pink lemonade par
TALLY frozen and fill the mold. Place
In the half frozen ice a handful of
soaked black currants which will re-
semble watermelon seeds. Place this
where 1t will freeze. When placed on
the table, stand a few black penny
dolls In the ice. 1t is a suggestion
which can be reserved for future use
when the genuine watermelon shells
can be used for the purpose, taking
the place of the paper mold.

White RIhhoners, Mince Rle.

For those who object to mince pies
as usually made, on the score of their
being non-temperance, the following
excellent recipe is commended: To
three bowls of chopped meat allow
one bowl of suet, seven bowls of
chopped apples, three bowls of seed
ed raisins, three bowls of sugar, a
half pound of chopped prunes, a quar-
ter pound of shredded citron, a pint
of strong coffee, a quart of currant or
grape jelly and a tablespoonful each
Of salt, cinnamon, allspice and cloves,
with teaspoonful each Of mace and
pepper
Add the liquor in which the meat
was boiled with the grated rind and
juice of two lemons and a little vine
gar to give the necessary tartness.
Scald as soon as made and pack in
close covered glass jars to prevent fer
mentation.

IS A SOUTHERN DgLIcAcX.
Method Of Preserving PineappIes
Without Cooking.

This method of preserving pineapple
without cooking has long been in use
Ia the south, and it preserves the fla

way of preserving.
rare soCnd ripe pineapples with a
sharp knife, remove the eyes with a
silver knife, cut the fruit half an inch
thick and weigh il, weigh a fourth
more graduated sugar than fruit. use
glass jars large enough at the top to
admit the slices of pineapple. In the
bottom Of the jars put an inch of
sugar, then alternate thick layers OF
pineapple and sugar until the jar is
filled, having plenty of sugar on top.
seal the Jars perfectly air tight; the
success of the preserving depends up
on this. The finest fruit is required.
Whole preserved pineapples were the
pride of southern housekeepers. The
fruit carefully washed and the pine
apple boiled in sufficient warm water
TO cover It until tender enough to
pierce it with broomStraw, after the
pineapple is cooled carefully peel and
then weigh an equal quantity of SUI
gar, put it in a deep kettle large
enough to contain the pines, cover

sirup, in this the pines are boiled 20
minutes, then cooled and put with the
strip into glass jars, which must be
sealed air tight.

BOIL THE HOUSEHOLD SILVER.
Will Give Appearance Of Newness to
Treasured Articles.

One OF the best-known methods Of
making silver that is in constant use
look like new again and of removing
every trace of dullness for some time
70 come, says the New York Tribune.
IS 10 put the various articles in large
tin wash boiler, after a thorough pol
ish with either hartshorn and whiting
or silicon, and to cover them with wa
ter into which a handful Of washing
soda has been thrown. and allow the
water to boil for two or three hours.
On removal, a good rubbing with a
soft chamois is productive OF a very
high polish. In the case of handsome
handmade pieces. with repousse or
embossed designs in high relief this
is actually the only way of getting
the deposits of cleaning powders out
Of the crevices. and for several weeks
rubbing is all that is necessary to
bring them up to the proper brilliancy
Once a month or once in six weeks
is the time limit for these silver boil
ings, for otherwise the maids grow
TO depend upon their efficacy and neg
lect the weekly cleaning.

When the Clock Stops.

Take 1t down, screw of the back,

See that the pendulum is straight,
have a little kerosene in a cup, dip a
straw In the oil so that about one
drop will adhere to it. Apply the oil
to the frame where the axle comes
through, putting about one drop on
each axle at back and face of
works. Also put few drops on the
small wheel where the pendulum
swings from. Screw on back, set clock
back In place. start 1t, and it viii ruo

Pretty Luncheon Ida

A pretty idea for the last course of
a luncheon is to let your guests toast
marshmallows. Purchase as many
small candles-such AS are used for a
Christmas tree or birthday cake, the
color scheme of your luncheon-as you
have guests. Fasten the candles to
plates with some melted wax from the
candle and place two marshmallows
and pair of candy tongs like confec-
TONERS put in candy boxes on each
plate. Individual oyster borry forks
can be used in place of the tongs if
you cannot get the candy tongs. 1t
makes laughter and fun, and breaks
the ice for the rest of the afternoon.

"Kitchen Minded -

Kitchen minded" is an epithet ap-
piled to women who are too much en-
crossed with domestic affairs. The
word is evidently meant as a reproach.
No doubt there are women who give
too much time to the kitchen, as there
are others who give too little Who
will undertake to decide just how
much time is enough? That a woman
should grow to like the place in which
she passes most of her time is not
strange. She might become parlor-
minded; but many, like George Eliot,
enjoy a clean kitchen best of all.

HINTS ON HOW TO DARN.
VIII Be Found Very Helpful to the
Busy Housewife.

The darning Of narrow lace edges
Is a most difficult matter.
II the tear is a serious one the
edges of the lace can be basted upon
the selvages of the muslin and placed
in the embroidery hoop.
Care must be taken not to sew into
the muslin.
II the edge is destroyed entirely or
In part, the lace may be basted upon
white letter paper. and stitched sever
al times to form a new edge and
cross-threads stitched to hold this
edge in place, then the paper pulled
away and the remaining stitches put
in on the machine or by hand.
Hamburg edgings and insertions can
be darned in the same way. They
should preferably be free of starch
and smoothly ironed to facilitate per-
feet work.
White mosquito netting that has
been washed wilt be found to give a
good foundation for darning coarsely
woven underwear on the machine, and
soft black mosquito netting should be
basted under the holes in the knees
of boys stockings.
1t should be basted directly across
the hole and the machine darning be
done directly upon it. The rough
edges and threads can afterward be
trimmed away.
When you are through darning upon
the machine, do not forget to replace
the pressure on the pressure foot and
the stitch action to the feed. other
wise you may be much puzzled the
next time you go to the machine and
wonder why 1t won't make a stitch"

Hem the Ends of 4 Veil.

AS a rule it is no easy matter to
hem a veil, as the fiimsy ends have
a most provoking way of slipping out
Of the fingers and from under the
needle. 1t is really easy, however, il
done in this manner: Basic an inch
hem in each end of the veil and then
basic a piece of paper under the hens
When this is done, stitch the hens on
the sewing machine through the pa
per. The paper then may be carefully
torn of. The veil should be pressed
with a warm iron and special atten-
ton given to the hens.

Flower Pots on Table.

Tiny Dresden flower pots are the
latest in table decorations. On the
everyday table nothing could be dain-
tier than one Of these little pots with
a tiny pink flower or one of the novel
ties in dwarfed trees. The perfect
little trees are only about six or eight
inches in height and are now brought
to such a perfection that they are
welcome change from the various
little ferns that have been used for so
long.

Removing Bruises from Furniture

If the bruise is slight soak the
place in warm water, and hold a red
hot poker near the surface of the
wood. keeping it constantly wet until
the bruise disappears. This will oc-
cur in a few moments. If the bruise
is large, an actual dent, wet the place
with warm water as before directed.
Then take a piece of brown paper,
fold it six or seven times, soak in
warm water and place over the spot.
Against the paper place a hot fat
iron, keeping it there until the mois-
ture has evaporated. This process
should be repeated until the surface
is again level-Suburban Life.

Gomez felt the touch of her cool

but he jerked off the silk handker-
