ly a cup of lard; put sifted flour in
bowl with pinch of salt, add lard and
mix with knives (keep everything

knife but not very much. Very little
water should be used-not so much
that more flour must be added to roll
out.

Things Worth Knowing.


Benzoin rubbed freshly on the edges
of a carpet is a sure preventive of
moths.
If your cupboard is damp, put a
quantity of quicklime in it for a few
days, as it absorbs the moisture en-
tirely.
Egg stains may usually be removed
from a silk gown by rubbing it with
common table salt.
If a sprig of parsley is dipped in
vinegar and eaten after an onion no
unpleasant odor from the breath can
be detected.
If the wooden chopping bowl has
the odor of food, soak the bowl in
boiling water in which a little soda is
dissolved. A tablespoonful of soda
to a gallon of water is the proportion.
When frying mush for breakfast
dip the slices into the white of an egg
to make them brown and crisp.
Fresh ink stains may be taken out
by putting into milk, but if they have
stood long salts of lemon will be
needed.
To remove the odor of fish or
onions from any cooking dish, put into
it a little vinegar and let come to a
scald.
To clean zinc, rub with a piece of
cotton cloth dipped in kerosene, after
ward with dry cloth.

The charming little frocks which are
displayed for girls of all ages should
be a strong incentive to the proud
mother of daughters to let her busy
needle fly and reproduce with her own
clever fingers what, perhaps, she can
cannot afford to buy ready made. The
old standby, blue serge, has been
again pressed into service to develop
this smart little school frock of simple

and side pleated skirt with broad, fiat
belt of black faille. A wide box pleat
occupies the center front and like the

A charming fall model is shown to-
day. This closely fitting shape has a
round crown and brim so narrow as
to hardly deserve the name, which
turns up unexpectedly on the left and
back where it is held by a knot of the
brocaded velvet which bands the
crown. From this knot spring two
smart feathers matching the blue of
the velvet which covers the hat. The
shirred velvet band is figured in ORR
