EASY TO MAKE cANDIED PEEL
Delicious CORRECTION Prepared at
Rome Far Better Than Can
Be Bought.

orange skins (generally considered
useiess) can be used in two ways that
Will give much pleasure. Any girl
VINO wants to have something little
out OF the common for a luncheon
party, or who wants to make a very
small gift, but one that shows some
real work Of her own, can accomplish
either object by making candied
orange peel. Not by buying it at the
coniectioner's. where plenty of it is
sold, but by doing it herself. The
canoied orange peel made at home
and used while fresh is so far su-
perior to that one can buy that 1t
seems like quite another thing.
IL can be made of the skin of an
orange that has been peeled and used
IN any way, but rather smooth skin
should be chosen. and it must be used
berore 1t becomes at all hard and dry.
Inc nrst thing to do is to scrape OF
with knife as much as possible of
the white inner skin. Keep on scrap
ing until the skin is quite thin and
the back shows the yellow. Then cut
the pieces of skin into strips one quar-
ter OF an inch wide and from one and
half to two inches long.
NOW comes the cooking, which is
done In the following manner: In a
small saucepan full of water dissolve
three tablespoonfuls of sugar and put
IN your strips Of peel. Boil them un-
till the water boils away, leaving a
thick syrup. During the latter part of
this process it must be carefully
watched and stirred to prevent burn
ing. Next take the peel from the
saucepan and roll 1t In powdered
sugar; then put the pieces on plates to
dry, not piled up, but in single layers.
The orange peel is best on the first or
second day after 1t is made, and it
must be used within a week or it will
grow too hard. A dainty box filed
with this orange peel makes very
attractive gift, or, If one is sending
some really handsome box "a silver
one or an enamel or carved one), an
added pleasure will be given by fill.

should be wiped out once day with
a cloth wet in kerosene or turpentine
to remove lingering stains on the en-
amel. II the sink is an old-fashioned
zinc one it should be rubbed with coal
ashes to remove discoloration and
later scrubbed well with hot soda wa
ter. At least once day pour a good
dlslnfectant or hot soda water down
the drain. Keep box of washing
soda on a shelf over the sink and dis
solve a lump with the last rinsing
water. This is grease cutter.
Kitchen closets can only be kept in
condition by thorough surveillance
There must be no poke holes, no un-
covered boxes, nothing to attract in
sect pests. Have plenty of enameled
boxes or use the tin receptacles in
which coffee is often sold. In these
put cereals, sugar, rice, coffee, salt,
Dreadcrumbs, chocolate, tapioca, hon.
my and other things that too often are
kept in their own packages after they
have been opened.
