FOR PACKING AWAY CLOTHES
Physician Says Ounce Bottle of Chlor-
oform Is Better Than
Camphor.

Better than camphor, according to a
physician, In packing away clothes, is
an ounce bottle of chloroform, with a
split cork. so that the fumes may grad
ually eyaporate. Put the bottle in the
bottom of he trunk These fumes will
not only kill moths, but many disease
germs. Care must be taken not to in
hale the fumes when opening the
trunk.
All clothing should be put away as
clean as possible If there are peck
cts, turn inside out and brush thor
oughly. Take soiled ruching from
the necks of dresses and shields from
under the arms. \ few bits of char
coal wrapped In tissue paper and laid
among the clothing will prevent the
unpleasant odor that is often noticed
when the air has been excluded for
some time.

Carving Meat.

To successfully carve meat one
must know how to control the knife
When carving a slice of meat, after
the first incision has been made the
angle at which the knife is held must
never be altered or a jagged slice
will be the result
The cut should be direct, sharp and
incisiye. The sawlike motion should
not enter into the operation.
AS rule the knife should be held
firmly but lightly. so that too much
juice will not be squeezed out from
the meat By using the point of the
knife lightly as wedge and the fork
as lever. even big fowl may be
easily jointed. provided the carver is
aware exactly how the joint is stu
ated and held together
