REMEDIES FOR sLEEeLEssNEss.

Dear Cornerites: I wish to thank Centennial Square for the information concerning the cold water process for preserving. [ had heard of it, but never knew just how it was 0cna. These recipes will be faithfully tried in the far west before very long.
 Perhaps I can offer few sugges tions that will beNof use to the readers of Social Corner.
 There are two harmless remedies for sleeplessness. One Is to wiring out q handkerchief or piece of white cotton cloth in cold water and lay it on the pit of the stomach.
 Another very good sleep producer ts found in dissolv1ng lump of sugar In about 8 tablespoonful of water
 In boiling cabbage do not cover the pot, but instead lay pieces of dry bread on the top, and your gletghboTN will not know what you are going to have for dinner
 Those who like to make things with as little expense az possible will find this cake recipe about as cheap as one may have and have it good.
 Apple Sauce Caks-One cup of sn- gar. one-half cup butter creamed to- gether. one and one-half cups of un- sweetened apple sauce, into which has been mixed two even teaspoons of soda, one teaspoon cinnamon, one-hAlr teaspoon of cloves. one large cup of raisins dTedged with a little flour, one half teaspoon nutmeg. two even tea spoons of baking powder mixed in two cups of flour that have been measured before sitting. A cup Of chopped nuts | also dredged in -four can be added, or not, as one deEre&

COOL SUMMER DESSERTS.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Sis ters: l heartily agree with Centennial Square in her article on change of diet for the spring and summer months and when I read it said: "Them's les my sentiments, tew!"
 l think rich pastry, doughnuts and most fried foods should have no place on the table in hot weather. Some form of bread and cereals, with plenty of fruit and vegetables in their season, with milk and its products, eggs cook ed in various ways, make a cooling and nourishing diet for these swelter- ing days when ones appetite is at it's lowest ebb.
 Frozen desserts are a refreshing fin ish to meal at any time of the wear. In the winter ice can be easily ob- tained, and without cost. The ice is to be finely crushed and used in the proportion of three parts ice to one of salt, rock salt preferable
 There are two distinct foundations for ice creAn1-the French, which is cooked and has eggs in it's compost ton, and the Philadelphia, which is uncooked and contains no eggs. There are many variations to both founda- tfons.
 For the French Ice Cream, scala one quart of milk and one pint of cream: break in bowl four eggs and one ta- blespoon of flour: beat thoroughly with egg beater add two scant cups of su l gar. stir this into the scalding miu and stir til thickened Let cool, sdc another pint of cream flavor anC | freeze. This can be altered to suit the taste or the circumstances by usins less cream and more. eggs and milk.

HOME REMEDIES OF VALUE.

Dear Editor of the Social Corner: I am a newcomer but perhaps you have room for few of my helps,
 My Fly asks help for night sweats. One ounce of Epson salts dissolved in two quarts of hot water-bathe quick ly before getting into bed. It is very refreshing and restful for tired nerves also. Epson salts bought by the pound are cheapest. I have not bought any in Norwich, but in New York and Boston they are about 10 cents a pound
 Black Pansy asks for remedy for black ants. For any kind of ants wash floors and shelves with turpentine. two tablespoons in 8 quart of water. Do not wipe up too dry. I think twice in the season will drive them away. Kerosene is also good, but does not work so quickly as the turpentine. This seems to keep flies out of the house, tool
 Anyone troubled with nose bleed Is helped wonderfully If fountain syringe is used with one teaspoon of salt in 8 quart of warm water Until I tried this my daughter had frequent attacks. sometimes three and four times a day. but the salt water seems to be strengthening to the membrane of the nose and now her nose seldom bleeds
 For soft eorns between the toes use powdered chalk and little cotton bat ting that has been saturated with alum water and dried. Change night and morning. It relieves pain in a few minutes and cures in a short time
 For washing windows one table spoon of kerosene in a quart of warm water and some old clean cloths will make them clear and shiny, and if dusted every time the room is they keep bright a long time.
 l hope these items will help others as they have me.

SOCIAL CORNER POEM.
Life's Mirror.

BY MADELINE s. BRIDGES. There are loyal hearts, there are spir- it's brave, There are souls that are pure and true. Then give to the world the best you have,
 And the best will come back, to you. Give love, and love to your life will
 flow,
 A strength in your utmost need; Have faith. and a score of hearts win
 show
 Their faith in your word and deed. Give truth, and your gift will be paid in kind; And honor will honor meet; And a smile that is sweet will surely
 find
 A smile that is just as sweet. Give pity and sorrow to those wh1
 mourn; You will gather. in flowers. again, The scattered seeds from your thought
 outbourne, Though the sowing seemed but vain For life is the mirror of king and
 slave;
 'Tis just what we are and do. Then give to the world the best that
 you have, And the best will come back to you

HOW TO BLACK A STOVE.

Dear Editor and Sisters: would like to contribute a few helpful hints.
 If you do not have time to black your kitchen stove often try this way: Scrape off small quantity of black ing q use the Rising Sun), mix with vinegar or part vinegar and part wa ter to the consistency of cream. add ing small pinch of sugar; apply to the stove sparingly and when partly dry, polish. There will be no dust from backing in this way, and you will have no trouble in getting 1t to stick to the iron, even though the covers are rosy red
 Before beginning work wst the hands and rub over with soap. espe- cially around the finger tips and nails. letting 1t dry on; then when you are through work the backing will wash off without leaving any stains on the hands.
 When the fingers of your long gloves are worn out save the wrists and cut new feet for your stockings from thern.

 TIERS.

Dear Editor and Sisters of Social Corner: As l have not written for some time, have still kept a lookout for the letters, which I see are getting few. Where are all of the Mas and Grandma's, and all the rest Have they retired?

 I was glad to hear Somebody tried my shortcake. I will try her pie some time.
 I am going to send & recipe for Bran Muffins, as I have never seen any> yet In the letters. Bran Mullins are nice for constipation. if anyone is troubled that way.
 Bran Muffins-Two cups of bran, one cup of flour, half teaspoon Of sal eratl1s sifted with it, half teaspoon salt, half cup of molasses; mix with sweet milk about as soft as for johnnycake. This makes a dozen mullins. Bake Tn cup tins about 25 minutes. The No -Matters-Take two cups of buttermilk, two tablespoons of sugar and two of cream. add half a teaspoon ] of soda and half teaspoon or sat- mold in flour as for doughnuts: cut in rounds the size of teaplate and fry | in hot lard; lay on a plate with apple sauce or jelly between several layers l thick, Cut up and serve warm Nc matter if company comes unexpectedly | these can be got soon. agree with Aunt Nancy about i children eating more johnnycakes, ano i such d-fashioned things. They would me more healthy for too many nick hacks spoil their appetites.

HINTS FOR THOSE WHO LIVE IN A
 TRUNK.

Dear Editor and Sisters. I wonder how you have all been during the hot wave? l fled to the coolest spot l know--a small village on Long Island with a quaint Indian name. My own name for 1t is The Village of Tran quility.
 Even here it has been what the in habitants call hot. l, fresh from the stitling heat in Connecticut, think it quite comfortable. We are very sell dom without cooling breeze.
 l am sitting on the highest point of one of the dunes. Before me stretches for miles the shore of the Atlantic. Between the sentences I watch the ocean and listen to the never ending noise of the waves. The scene which lies back of me is so beautiful l am at intervals constrained to turn and look at it.
 Scattered through the bright green meadows are groups of beautiful trees. Farm houses, supplemented by numer- ous outbuildings and picturesque wind mills, and a few cottages belonging to the summer people, give the human touch to the scene.
 I long to can or bottle some of the breeze and send a portion to each one of you. That being impossible, I will send some useful hints.
 To prevent white silk gloves from turning yellow after washing, dry them in a dark place.
 If your lace curtains are torn, cut a piece of the same material an inch or more larger on every side than the tear, being careful to match the pat tern. Dip in cold starch, lay it over the tear and iron into place. Then with few and small stitches fasten the 1 edges of the patch to the curtain. Ii they do not slip on to the rod easily i tie an old glove finger over the rod Probably many of the Sisters are planning a summers vacation. If you | expect to live in trunk for any length of time, be sure to take plenty of bags of various shapes and sizes. Have g bag for your stockings, one for youl collars, bag for twine, large stout bag for articles to be mended, one fol | such sewing materials as are not kep- in your workbag, bags for different kinds of fancy work, etc With best wishes for a pleasah- l summer.
