STOP soUEAKlNe OF HINGES.
Application Of Kerosene Oil Does
Away with Annoyance.

The noises of squeaky hinges may
be stopped by putting on kerosene oil.
Brass beds may be kept in condition
by rubbing them once or twice n
month with olive oil. The oil should
be put on with soft flannel cloth and
rubbed off almost Immediately with
cheesecloth.
To destroy flies use the following:
Infusion of quassia, one pint; brown
sugar, four ounces; ground pepper,
two ounces. Mix this well together
and put in shallow dishes when re-
quired.
To destroy flies in room take
half teaspoonful of black pepper in
powder, one teaspoonful of cream,
mix well together. Place them in room
on plate where flies are troublesome
and they will soon disappear
When washing floors or cleaning
windows always put few drops of
paraffin in the water, and this will
keep away flies, moths, and other in

USING UP COLD VEGETABLES.
Appetizing Dishes Can Be Prepared
from Left-Overs.

Cold vegetables should never be
thrown away. They can be used in a
number of appetizing ways. For exam
pie, they may be rubbed through a
sieve and used for thickening soup.
Potatoes mashed very finely, or
rubbed through a wire sieve, so that
there can be no hard Jumps, can be
used in such variety of ways.
Mix a little well beaten egg and
milk with them and pepper and salt
to flavor and a little grated cheese,
and bake in a well creased pie dish
in fairly hot oven. Mixed with the
beaten egg only, into stiff paste,
they can be formed into balls covered
with egg and bread crumbs, and eth
er baked on a tin in the oven or fried
till a golden brown, and so make
most appetizing looking dish. Some
times cheese may be mixed with the
before baking.
Supposing there is so little as to
seem hardly worth saving, mix what
is left with an equal quantity OF
flour. add a little baking powder and
enough milk to make into a paste,
form into fiat cakes and bake to a del
icate brown. Buttered and served hot
they are not to be beaten.
New potatoes and carrots can both
be sliced and sauted They are de-
licious, and the green of the parsley
that is sprinkled over them after cook
ing makes pretty looking dish.
