Hints For the
Household

Add borax or powdered soap to the
washing water for plates instead of
soda. When washing glassware add
little ammonia. This makes the
glass clear and easily polished.
To remove tar marks rub a little
butter on the spot and allow it to
stand till the tar Is softened, when it
will wash out with warm water and
soap
Dish mops may be kept odorless by
having a solution of soda in a jar
beside the sink, and placing the mops
in this when they are not in use
Corks boiled for five minutes before
use in the case of bottled fruits, etc,
can be easily pressed in and then
make perfectly air-tight shoppers.
MIX which has slightly turned
may be sweetened and rendered fit
for use again by stirring in little
soda.

of its magnitude If there are excep-
tioualy large stones among it, they viii

rival or eclipse the few historical dia-
mopds of the world, but their worth
can only be measured by the readiness
of some fool to pay hundreds Of thou

Yes" nodded Philip again. His SEN
tiousness brought the man to the point
Therefore you must take me into
your confidence. What quantity OF
stones do you possess. and what are
their sizes? l must know"
