HANDY KITCHEN CABINET
A Stralnlng Bag.

A flannel straining bag is a neces
sity In any kitchen where jellies are
prepared. Instead Of investing in an
expensive strainer, an excellent sub.
stitute may be made Of ordinary fan
mel. which should first of all be
hemmed neatly and then soaked and
wrung out in boiling water. When
1t is used, 1t should be laid in
side a large bowl and the fruit
or liquid jelly poured into it. The
four ends of the flannel should then
be tied together and a stick passed
through the knots. The bag can then
be suspended over bowl by means
OF a couple of chains 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
soon.

made that by the cultivation Of y

An errant cabby, cruising aimlessly

figure and white shirt from a distance,
and bore down upon him with a gal
