- THAT do you make Sunday mean

Wv question in this form. il is because

which Sunday is regarded in any
family is due TO the woman at the head Of

father does not have a great influence in
determining the character Of the day: but.
after all. it is up to you." in the slang
of the times, to decide how Sunday shall
be kept Is it day Of rest and glad
ness" or is 1t one Of dullness and depres-
sion; or is it Just like the other days OF
the week, except that the men OF the house
are at home instead Of at work, and that
every one eats too much?
Something is wrong with the manage
msnt Of your household II the work on
Sunday is as heavy as it is the remainder Of
the week. I say this knowing the while
that in many homes the labor is greater
then than on other days II this is true Of
your establishment. set yourself to reform
conditions at once.
But" you say. " can't make a change
On Sunday the family counts on a good
meal and I have to get it. I don't even
have time to go to church. because there is
so much to do in the line of cooking"
Other plants Of that sort have come my
way before. but they do not alter my stand

you on Sunday. You have surely as good
q right to little repose as the man serv-
ant, or the maid servant, or the cattle Of

relative to your husbands attitude towards

Takes Apay Rubber Taste.
A correspondent wrote that she had put
up fruit, and that. while it was nice when
first canned and had kept perfectly. 1t
tasted q little Of the rubber rings 1 have
taken new can rubbers and dropped them
for just a minute or two before using into
a weak solution OF baking soda and boiling
water. 1 think this will overcome that
rubbery taste OF which she complains.

Use of Citron.

Would you publish as well directions for

You make the common mistake OF think
ing that the citron melons. so called, are the
same as the citron Of commerce which you
describe as crystalliEed citron. The citron
you buy to put in cake grows on a tree and
is a member OF the lemon family. 1t has
nothing in common with the citron melon,
except the name. The melon can be made
into a good preserve, treating it by the same
recipe you would use in preserving water
melon rind. but it is impossible to make it
into a conserve which would take the place
Of the citrOn used in cake. This error has
been made by a number OF other house
keepers who have sent me the same re-
quest 1 hope the directions for sailing
down wax or string beans for winter use
may be supplied by some Cornerite who has
tried the recipe and proved it good. The
recipe for baking powder you were good
