Use Salt to Cook Spring Vegetable.

If one portion of a vegetable is cook
ed. in pure water, the other half in
salted water, q decided difference is
perceptible in the tenderness of the
two. Those boiled in the pure water
are vastly inferior. and, in many cases,
will be almost tasteless.
Salt brings out the delicate flavor
of caulifiower, cabbage, potatoes, peas,
beans and practically all vegetables.
Onions cooked in water without salt
can be rendered almost tasteless.
As salt increases the tenn perature of
boiling water above the averages tenn
perature of pure boiling water its
cooking advantage is at once appar-
ent.
Salt in cold water is used to drive
insects from vegetables growing above
ground.
They instantly release themselves
from the leaves when they are plunged
in salty water and can be rinsed off.
Celery is improved by standing it
in slightly sailed water for half an
hour before it is served.

1t is wise to insist upon care with
regard to the little child's shoes. Never
should a little one be allowed to wear
damp shoes in the house. This trou-
BILE can be prevented by the use of
rovershees. but if there be the slight
est evidence of dampness the posi-
bility of catching cold can be preclud-
ed by insistent mothers Then, again
a. rest is necessary for the feet and a
frequent change of shoes is requisite
to keep thin in good comfortable con
dition. When you consider how mis-
cradle a person can be with aching
feet it is important to look well to the
shoes. for in these lie the possibilities
of harm or of general comfort.

Bathing Hints for Vacation Girl.

When you feel exhausted after bath
ing. hunt for the cause, The water
may be too hot or too cold. You may
be staying in it too long or bathing
when too tired. A cup of hot milk is
a great piek-me-up after hot bath.
Don't rush Immediately into the cold
air after hot bath for the sake of
your skin and to prevent colds.
Dashing with water as cold as you
can stand 1t will make an early out
door trip safe after the pores are
opened by the hot water.
If we cannot copy the old time wom-
en-, with their aromatic baths. there
are many things which can be used in
the water to soften it and make it
more refreshing. Among these is a
lemon cut in slices and placed in the
bath ten minutes before using.
A little borax will also soften the
water, or a bag about five inches
square. filed with half bran and half
oatmeal.

Woman in Life and in the Kitchen
To Renovate the Old Refrigerator.

An old refrigerator which would
seem to be past using may often be
renovated, if one knows how at very
slight expense.
The first thing is to pull it out into
the middle of the floor somewhere
where one can work upon it easily,
make a good hot suds and wash it
inside and out.
After it is thoroughly dry. If 1t has
leaked at all. use putty to cover up
holes. Get can of white lead, mix
with turpentine and paint over the
whole of the inside.
When it has dried give two coats of
white enamel.
Leave it open to the air.
When the enamel has dried one may
attack the outside.
Buy a can of any good paint. color
to suit ones tastte, and put on two
coats, having the first thoroughly dry
before putting on the second.
When this is finished one has a re-
frigerator almost as good as new.

ITALIAN MURDERED.

The muilsted body OF an Italian
was found last night lying 10 the
Pserdegst woods, back of the Flatbu'h
water works, New York. The Italian
was about 80 years old. He wore no
shoes, bis feet being covered only ny
socks. There Was white silk band
kerchIef around the neck In lieu OF
collar.
The face Was badly cut. The noss
had been slashed of, and there were
stab wounds 10 the cheeks, 10 the
throat, and in the abdomen. Although
the ground where the body was found
was still wet from the rain, the body
and it, clothing we're dry, indicating
thst 1t bad been placed there tut q

was still going. The msu had no! been
dead more than three hours.
The fugers of the right hand were
cut ID the bone, as II the man had
clutched the blade OF a knife, Under
the body tbe police found q long
butcher knife, which bad been ground
down TO q slender BLADE with very
keen edge and sharp point.

a lsborer living st South Orange. H

The body of the dead man showed
no bullet wounds. From this the de-
