sprinkle with salt and pepper and
dredge with flour. Cut some of the fat

THE BEST WAY.


To test the quality of the air in a
room to learn whether it is pure OF
poisonous, pour some clear lime-water
in a glass and leave it standing in the
room. II the atmosphere is burdened
with poisonous carbonic acid gas this
will soon unite with the lime in the
water, making it cloudy.
BY sewing pieces of strong tape, wide
enough for the hand to slip through
easily. to seach side of the matterss,
you will lessen the trouble usually had
in turning it, for the handles give a
good hold on an otherwise cumbersome
object.
The necessary frequent washing of
hair brushes in order to keep them
clean softens the bristles. To prevent
this, dip them in a strong solution of
alum water Immediately after washing.
This alum water can be bottled and
kept on hand for several occasions-it
Is clean, for the brushes are thoroughly
washed before being dipped into 1t.

The Care of House Plants.

Lear iSS DooH.
I an very fond of house plants but am
unsuccessful in keeping them. They al
ways die in "a few weeks. Now. Miss
Doom, can you advise me about watering
them, etc? Il. Il. u.
House plants should be watered only
when they need it. The test is ring
ing the pot by striking it sharply with
the knuckles. A hollow ring shows
that the earth is dry n the plant
needs water. A dull, thuddy sound in
dicates the presence of plenty of
water. Surface wetting daily is worse
thar no water. The plant should be
soaked so that water runs out of the
hole in the bottom Of the pot. A good
sized watering pot full of water is the
proper allowance for Il twelve-inch
pot. 1t is good to let the soil dry out
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1912-01-04

also, for that gives chance for air to
get through the soil.
Sponging the leaves of palms, ETC.,
is excellent, but not necessary. Dust,
of course, Schokes the respiration a
little. Proper watering together with
a little care about opening windows
upon the plants, should preserve a
healthy condition. If a plant willis and
grows yellow it is we'll to repot it,
these conditions arguing something
wrong with the soil. Dead leaves and
twigs should, Of course, be pluclSed
off.
Most house plants demand a good,
bright light, though not necessarily.
This is particularly true in the case
of ferns, where sunlight is better. If
the house Is to be closed up at any
time of the year 1t is a coed thing to
send the plants to a florist for care.
Often an ailing fern may regain vigor
from a few weeks of greenhouse light
and even temperature.

Character and Life

Z 1FE would be easier if W re would grasp the great truth that it is a long
education, and that character, victory organized into moral purpose and
habit, is its end. Happiness comes by the way % those whose hearts
are set to dc right; pleasure lies Otter in the path; nut he business of life Is
getting irons They only who are strong are fit for happiness al a perma-
ent and continuing condition and life is a preparation for happiness rather
than a time nd place. for happiness. Pleasure without moral vigor and sanity

To Remove SuperfluOus Hair.

Will you kindly tell me how l can
remove hair, as / have some growing

Nothing but the electric needle will

remove it temporarily by making a
paste of barium sulphate and water
and applying it to the hair growths.
After it has been on for a few econds
wash the face thoroughly.
