Process of Crystdllizing Alum.

crystallizinS alum? To explain this further
I will mention having seen fancy work
for instance a fruit basket-made Of wire
and covered with something was told was
crystallized alum. which looked Just like
frost on the wire frame. The process OF
getting the alum TO stick to the wire was
done in some way Of steaming and it is this
for which I would like the recipe.

In my youth this style Of ornamentation
was popular. and recolIect well having
done some Of 1t myself. The process 1 fol-
lowed was to wind the object to be treat
ed with fine worSted. Cotton or wool with
a smooth surface would not answer; II had
to be rather rough. The alum was dis
solved in water to make a saturated solu-
tion-that is. as much OF the powdered alum
as the water will take up-and the object
wound With wool was dipped into this
More tharsne dipping was usually required
and the ornament was allowed to dry be-
tween w'hiles. The alum then formed
crystals on the wool and We used to think
them pretty. I have never heard of the

Worst Way TO Keep Recipes.

We cannot escape something Of this sort
so long as there are other members Of our
households who put things out of place. but
a certain measure Of it we can be spared
If we will adopt fixed localities and suffer
nothing to interfere with our putting into
them the things that belong there.
Take the recipes. for instance. The
worst way in the world to preserve them
is by leaving them in the paper and trusting
TO that being left where we put It. A news
paper seems TO be looked upon as d pos
session owned by any one and every one
who wishes to take it. To be sure Of the
recipe It should be cut out at once and put
away securely.

my readers. The others want to read the

the reason for this will be obvious. With
a CORE spondence list OF thousands, with
hundreds OF letters coming to me every

attempt to send recipes for the simple rea-
son that the day is only twenty-four hours
long. One persons time would be required

one who begs the recipe thinks she is the
only person who is in need. But scores Of
such pleas flow in upon me and I can

the others. l may say. by the way. that
the recipe asked for was sent to press some
time ago, and hope before this it has met
