A SUBURBAN HOUSEWIVES DE- VICE FOR DRAUGHTY WINDOWS

big bay window is d place always cold unless lined with steam pipes As this is not always feasible, a Jer- sey woman's eXpedient for blanketing large window where the children loved to play, made it as comfortable as any other part of the large living room. During the autumn. quantities of dried leaves were gathered, and filled into pads made to fit the win dows snugly, from sill to floor like the mats in a Japanese room. These pads were made of ticking on one side and any old pieces of cloth that were at hand on the other. Leaves were put in to make these about two and a half inches thick and they were then tackled through like a comfort able. In the window which measures about fifteen feet of half circle. dozen or more pads were used over tapping each other. They were fast ened to the floor by small Jacks and strips of carpet binding and then by tapes to the castings just to the level of the sills. Short curtains to match the coloring of the room were fast ened by tapes to the castings just above the sills, and falling just to the floor concealed the pads. This turns a draught of air upward that may creep through the double window. The floor of the bay window was also padded with cushions of leaves.
 In the spring. the stitches in these pads are cut and the leaves thrown away Then the ticks and cloths are washed, dried and laid away in the gaFret for the next season.

MACARONI IN MANY FORMS

AIacaroni in one form or another should appear on every table several times d weeN. Too many families have only one way of serving maca- roni-that is au gratin-and naturally the family soon grow tired of it. To get an idea of the innumerable dishes in which macaroni may appear it would pay d housewife to visit one of the good Italian restaurants, look over their bill-of-fare and then from time to time try the different ways of preparing it. A visit to a first class Italian grocery is also Illuminating.
 There are fully sixty forms of Neo- politan macaroni, which is dried in the sun, and while native Americans know and use but few of these, the Italian Americans use them all. There are only about forty forms of the GenOese paste which is dried upon shallow shelves in big airy rooms, in use here, and it is higher in price than the NeOpolitan. American maca- roni most often initiates the form of the Genoese. Time was when this country received all of her supplies of the various macaronies from Italy or France. but now a great deal of macaroni is made here. Eight years ago it was a hard matter to get Am erican grown wheat with sufficient glutton to make good macaroni, but today, the Dakotas and other semi arid regions of the northwest are rais- ing aurum wheat and factories are making 1D9c1rppi comm prciallN- ma a large scale.

A POINT IN DISHWASHING

Dishes or silver which have been used for eggs. should not be put sn hot water until the egg has first been rinsed off in cold or luke warm water. Without this forethought, the egg is at once cooked on by the hot water and time and strength must be em- ployed to get it off again. Milk bot ties. and cream pitchers should also be rinsed in cold water before putting into the dish pan.
