How to Keep Utensils Looking Like
New,

Most people seem to realize the best
way of cleaning silver. but they are by
no means so sure Of their ground when
it comes to other metals and compost
tions of this nature: and for this reason
the following recipes are given, all of
them being well tested. Iron saucepans
should be cleaned as soon after use as
possible. If anything greasy has been
cooked in them put in soda and water
and boil this up. When starchy food has
been cooked in them, however, steep
them in cold water, as hot water makes
the starchy material stick to the pan
The SCOT should be removed from the
bottom and sides with an old knife.
When this process has been carried
out clean both the inside and outside
with soap. using a brush. and dipping
this in silver sand; then rinse thorough
ly. first in hot and then in cold water
and leave the pan to dry in a warm
place, upside down.
Enameed pans should be stepped, the
SCOT removed and then washed with hot
water, any burnt parts being removed
by rubbing them with a coarse flannel
dipped in salt and broken-up eggshells;
then rinse well and dry inside and out
Galvanized iron baths and the like
should be rinsed out with hot water and
soda directly after use To clean them
thoroughly, scrub them well with soap
and water. to which soda has been
added dry and then rub With a piece Of
house flannel dipped first in paraffin and
then in silver sand or powdered bath
brick till bright then rinse first in hot
and then in cold water, and let it dry in
a draught to remove the smell of para
fin. r. ..
One of the best methods is to clean tin
with whiting mixed to a stiff paste with
water of ammonia; only all the powder
must be brushed off when dry. Another
method is to slice down very thinly four
ounces of yellow soap and pour over this
one quart of cold water, and allow it to
stand till next day to dissolve; then add
a pound of the best whiting, bring it all
to boiling point, keeping it well stirred.
so as to insure it's all being properly
mixed: then leave it till cold, when you
add two ounces of spirits of hartshorn.
and keep it in tightly corked bottles.
This keeps almost indefinitely. but must
be we'll shaken before use.
Zinc must be first thoroughly we'll
washed WIN warm soap anu water, tnen
well dried. and next carefully rubbed all
over with cloth dipped in either par
ATTN or turpentine. If liked. a little
paraffin may be used with the whiting.

may be set to ring at the time the
vegetables should be put over the fire,

FOR SALTY SOUP.

If your soup is found too salty, add
few slices Of raw potatoes and cook
little longer. The potato will absorb
the surplus salt.
1t will save time if a frying pan or
griddle is wiped with a piece of old
newspaper to remove the surplus
grease before il is washed.
Some people like the unsweetened
juice OF a pineapple added to mayon-
naise, especially when the mayon-
naise is used on fruit salad.
Boil dried beef few minutes In wa
ter to remove the salt and to make it
tender. Put the beef into hot butter
fry brown, make gravy with -four and
milk, bell for a minutes and serve
with small pieces Of toast.

Canned Peaches.

Pare, halve and remove the stones,
dropping the fruit Into ice-coid wa

FRH.I,S OF Fash HON
SUMMER scA'RFs.

Their general adoption is an estab-
lished fact, and whether they be Of soft
chiffon, of satin or offvelvet they will
be worn with the same grace that
characterized the furs of the winter.
AS accessories these scarfs occupy al
important position in the summer out
fit, and the more the merrier.
Chiffon lends itself to an easy adap-
|tation. comgining a sufficient body with
suppleness, and offering a wide field OF
color from which to chose.
Mousseline de sole, tulle, net and sat
in are materials from which summer
scarfs are fashioned with most success
while anything that will give color OF
decoration to them is sanctioned.
How are these scarfs edged? There
can be u deep border of embroidery and
beads, either transparent or wooden
From this deep hem thin line of deco

A model that is distinctives is of a
wonderful shade of sea blue. with the
ends shirred into squares of black vel
vet stranded with iridescent blue
stones. This is just a suggestion of
the idea which has caught the world of
dress by storm, and the reliance placed
in the sntnmer scarf, whereby the last
touch is added to costume, is well
founded
When the scarf is thrown over the
shoulders of fortunate. it can be
drs ped in the graceful way that even
ing scarfs of the winter were worn,
crossing aver the back and turned
around one arm. For afternoon wear
these scarfs are wound around the

worn. one end tErawn over the should

The combination of characterization
and ease of construction has rarely
been given to home dressmakers. Need.
less to say, they will take advantage of
the opportunity.

NOTES FOR MOTHER"

Children are often worried because
their mothers are too attentive and
continually reprove their small ones
without reason.
A child should be left alone, and be
allowed to- play or amuse itself in it's
own way without the constant direc-
ton of a nervous mother.
A boy, for example. enjoys more a
few simple toys, and something which
his own ingenuity has worked out,
than the most elaborate plaything
which has been bought.
In the same way, the little girl will
lavish her affections on misshapen
doll. probably made at home, while
the most artistic production of the
toy shop will lie in state, to be taken
up on rare occasions.
Keep children well, clotlfe them
sensibly, let them understand they are
Ito amuse themselves. and don't fuss"
them.

NAPKIN RINGS.

For the maiden who travels much
OF who is going on a long visit, an en-
broidered napkin ring of white linen is
timely and serviceable gift. These
rings are cut in strips Of the required
length. with triangular point at the
embroidered end. and are scalloped and
buttonhcled all around. A spray of
flowers makes pretty decoration, with
the monogram of the owner beneath. A
buttonholed loop at the very end folds
over and fasten to the tiny pearl but
ton at the other side Unlike most en-
broidered pieces. these rings must be
stiH1y starched when laundered.
