Home Made Mustard

"Wil you please publish In your Corner a recipe for mixing good mustard, to be used on meats at home? My husband does not like mine. The one mother used tc make contains flour. he says. l simply mix dry mustard with vinegar, adding a little sugar. but this he does not care for. l shall be grateful for some light on this subject I have q pair of out grown white canvas, two-strap slippers, sixe c. If any one can make use of them l shall be glad to give them to one who will pay parcel post.
 MRS. R. e.
 It pleases me to fancy that the mustard mother used to maxe" may have been copied from a recipe l believe to have been original with myself and which first al peared 40 years ago. I should be more nearly sure of this but for your hus- bands notion that his recipe contains flour Make some for him according to my directions and let me know if he rec- ognizes it. Rub four tablespoons of dry mustard to smooth paste with two ta blespoons of salad oil. It will be stiff, but make it smooth. Now beat into this enough vinegar to bring it to the con of rich cream. Whip into this a small teaspoon of paprka, the same of white sugar, and dash of strained onion juice. This will keep bottled for months in cool place. We prefer it to the finest French mustard. Beat hard until it is light. It will be lighter in color for the beating, and better in flavor. It has not the ''mordant" properties of English mustard and loses the smell and the taste that remind one unpleasantly of a mustard plaster. which cling to mixed made In the usual way. 1t Is de- licious in ham and tongue sandwiches. The shoes will be claimed delghtedly. l hold your address. Keep them for us.

else, when he has a mind to, and can wash everybody who gets in his way.
 And yet the United States department of agriculture has deemed it wise to issue bulletin teaching how to sprin- kle lawns. This for the stated reason that bad watering is the cause of many poor lawns. To moisten the surface of the ground only is to cause the roots of the grass to know near the top, and a few hot days will dry them up, un- less the sprinsling Is regular and con tinuous The best way Is to sprinkle on one spot from six to twelve hours, then on another spot for the same length of time and so on till the whole lawn is thoroughly moistened. the sprinlxling being so slight that not 8 drop of water runs off and Is wasted. The water then sinks deep Into the soil, the roots wo down after It and tho grass can better withstand pro- tracted drouth. The governments ad - vice seems reasonable and practical. but thousands will continue to sprinkle their lawns In the old, superficial way.

 Everybody knows how to sprinkle the lawn. It's the easiest kind Of work. Father knows how when he comes home from the office and isn't too tired. Mother knows how. Even when she's dressed for dinner it's just fun for her to go out and sprinkle the lawn and not get a drop of water on her skirts. Ethel knows how. and Bobby can sprinkle the lawn better than anybody

MADAME ISE'BELL Says Keep Your Eyes Open and Your Face Uplifted if You
 Wish to Look Young
HABITS-Part "

The first lines that appear on the forehead are apt to be those that are the direct result of the habit of frown- ing. No amount of massage will perma- nently remove these unless this habit is corrected An unlined brow with well trained. well marked eyebrows is a distinct charm on any face, young or old, and the pity is that so few young faces even possess 1t.
 As woman grows older the whole face begins to droop and this Is notice able about the eyes even before 1t appears on the lower part of the face To illustrate the difference this makes in the face place the two forefingers against the hair line back of the tenn ples and lift them, lifting the skin of the face at the same time. What is the result? In the case of most women rast s5 the face looks years younger Do this night and morning after the face has been well cleaned and an- nointed with massage cream. and, while holding the skin up, wink the eyes half a dozen times. This will leave an up- lifted expression to the face Hold this as much as possible during the day.
 Keep the Eyes Open
 Learn also to keep the eyes well open if you wish to preserve young ex- pression. As years go on the eyes are apt to appear smaller. to droop at the corners and to sink back into the head This dropping effect can be largely cor rected by training the muscles not to droop Stand before mirror and with out touching the hands to the face, let the muscles relax; now lift them. Do you not see the difference? Now, using plenty of massage cream with the sides of the two forefingers massage the skin gently from the corners of the eyes up to the temples. To keep at bay sometimes assume keep them well lu- bricated at night with massage cream Be careful never to press on the eye balls while treating the eyelids to cream. It is very easy to harm them.
 That Bad Horizontal Line
 A horizontal line on the lower edge of tho cheek and chin comes from hold ing the head down and allowing the flesh under the chin to rest on tho 608o OL tiO COAiais U cOiiCSi tiA6 Aifio first accustom yourself to holding the head well up. especially when walking or talking. Wear collarless gowns. or. at least those with loose. soft chokers that do not press or confine the flesh to tho throat. Twice day do the fol- lowing exercise which will remove not only this line but the downward lines at the corners of tho mouth.i
 After cleansing the face thoroughly cover the chin and lower part of the cheeks with a good massage cream, place the two hands with knuckles of forefinKers together in the curve be- tween the lower lip and the chin with the two thumbs below the chin; then slip the hands apart towards the ears. Make this movement firm but not suf- fciently heavy to make lines under the ears, During the exercise keep the skin plentifully coveerd with cream,
