return is awaited with eagerness?
The failure or partial failure, of such

A Straining Bag

A FLANNEL strafhing bag Is a ne
n ceesity In any kitchen where jellies
- II are prepared. Instead of investing
in an expensive strainer, an excellent
substitute may be made Of ordinary
flannel. which should first of all be
hemmed neatly and then soaked and
wrung out in boiling water. When it Is
used, 1t should be laid inside a large
bowl and the fruit or liquid jelly poured
into it. The four ends of the flannel
should then be tied together. and stick
passed through the knots. The bag
can then BE- suspended over a bowl by
means OF couple Of chairs and left to
drain slowly until all the liquid has
passed through. A blanket should be
thrown over the top in cold weather, so
as to prevent the jelly from setting too
