Washable Chiffon Veil.

When a washable chiffon veil is
soiled fold it neatly and tack the
folds securely with basting thread.
Then wash the veil carefully in soapy
water and rinse it in salt water to
set the color. Press the folded veil
between a couple of heavy bath
towels to get the water out and do
not wiring it at all.
When as much water has been
pressed out as is possible to get out
cut the hastings and pull them out.
Lay one edge of the veil straight on
the ironing board and iron it dry
with a moderately hot iron. Then
iron each of the other sides dry and
then iron the middle of the veil until
1t, too, is dry. By ironing the edges
first the veil can be ironed without
stretching or pulling out of shape.
Lay the veil flat on a bed for an
hour or two after it is ironed. If it
Is ironed in this way it will keep Its
shape and will not wrinkle easily.

r HE teacher can help the homes Of
her district only through her
natural work in the community,
and not by trying to apply any ex-
ternal cure all" for economic prob
lens.
The teacher has many opportuni-
ties to bring her work into close rela-
tionship to the home. Take arith-
metic, for instance. She can apply
the fundamental operations to egg
and butter accounts; to farm work
problems; to problems based on the
milk sheet; to the building Of a new
silo, barn or school; to a simple sys-
tenn of farm bookkeeping; In short,
to any of the live interests Of the
farm.
Again, she can make civics practi-
cal. She can teach the topic of "elec-
ton" when elections are of special
interest in the community; visit the
polls with the older pupils on election
day, with some of the district or town
officers to explain; teach process Of
naturalization when court holds a
session for that purpose; study actual
papers of some one who has become
na~turalized; and send questions and
answers on Jul Government to one
about to become a citizen. She may
send the pupils to the parents for
every topic that can be learned by ex-
perience and thus secure cooperation
and interest in the work.

To Clean Wooden Skirts.

1t is surprising how many women
send their wooden skirts to be cleaned
when skirt after skirt could be done
at home, If washed with naphtha soap
and tepid water, and ironed in the
ordinary way, on the wrong side.
This treatment will make a wooden
skirt, especially serges and broad
cloth, look like new.
If the cloth is badly soiled, scrub it
well with the soap and water, using a
small brush, and scrub with the grain
of the goods.
A little ammonia may be added if
the material Is black, but it will not
be good for colored materials as it
fades the color.
After rinsing the garment in sever
al tepid waters hang to dry, and iron
It before quite dry.

Tomato Catsup.

Wash and cut in pieces a half peck
of ripe tomatoes. Cook in a porce-
lain-lined or granite iron preserving
kettle till soft enough to put through
a sieve, which will remove skins and
seeds. To the pulp add two table
spoonfuls of salt, two tablespoonfuls
pepper, one-half tablespoon allspice,
one-half tablespoon cloves and one
half pint vinegar. Let the tomato
cook for several hours before adding
the spices and vinegar. Mix the salt
and spices dry in a bowl, and blend
well before putting into the tomato.
Cook till quite thick and put in bot
ties. Store in a cool cellar.

Tomato Mock Orange Marmalade.

Scald and peel large-sized yellow
tomatoes. Cut downward over each
seed section, press open and remove
all seeds with the thumb, leaving the
pulp comparatively whole. To two
parts of the prepared tomatoes allow
n part of oranges, slicing thinly.
Cover all with an equal quantity Of
sugar and let stand over night. In
the morning pour off strip and cook
down about half, add the tomatoes
and oranges and cook until the orange
skins are transparent. Seal In jelly
glasses. This is an original recipe,
and is a delightful substitute for the
genuine orange marmalade, though
much cheaper.

Teachers AS Help to Rural Home
Desiss BY May Mdsios

agriculture practical. When study
ing corn, why not study the real
thing, not a textbook? Why not
visit a field, select best stalks, and
best ears; get the state circulars on
corn selection, curing and testing and
make racks for drying and later on
actually test the seed.
1t Is not necessary to limit this
work to the class In agriculture, for
1t is possible to get the whole school
and the community interested. AS
part of their school work she can
have the pupils select and fire-dry
corn at home and later in the season
test 1t.
Other topics in agriculture offer
the same opportunity for work that
will reach the home-weeds, poultry,
silos, alfalfa and use of the Babcock
tester. The wide-awake teacher will
get a tester for the school and use it
freely. She will have pupils demon
strate its use at evening programmes
and make tests for each home.
They can keep milk sheets and
weigh the milk every day to deter
mine actual value of cows. Pupils
are exceedingly interested in this
work and older boys will come in for
the Winter months II they find some
thing practical offered.
In short, the teacher who wishes to
help must feel that she Is a part of
the community--must be loyal and
ready to serve.-Ellen B. Mcdonald.

Uses of BenZine.

Buy one gallon of benzine. Collect
all the kid gloves, white kid shoes
or slippers, silks and coat collars that
need cleansing with benzine. Put
some benzine in two basins, one for
washing washing the most delicate
articles first) and use the other for
rinsing. When the dirt has settled
in the basins, carefully pour off into
a jug and break up into it a 10-cent
cake of ice camphor. Let this stand
a day or two until thoroughly dis
solved and use in an oil feeder to
hook over the beds, picture frames,
mop boards and any furniture around
the bed. The benzine will quickly
dry, leaving no trace or stain.

Porch Cushion Covers.

Some persons before fitting out a
porch completely with cushions test
samples Of the cloth to see if they
will stand sunlight and water. One
should never use handsome embroid-
cred or silk pillows on the porch;
comfort, not elaborateness, should be
the aim.
The covers, if possible, should be
uniform in material and color, with
perhaps n or two carefully-chosen
contrasting shades to avoid any
chance of m%onotony. If the materials
are washable two sets of removable
overs are made for convenience in
laundering.

Cold Fruit Pudding.

Cut thin slices of stale bread or
sponge cake and fit them closely to-
gether as a lining for a mold or pud-
ding dish. Have ready hot freshly
stewed fruit, preferably currants and
raspberries, blackberries, or some
richly colored fruit. Be sure to have
an abundance of juice. Turn the
fruit into the lined mold, cover with
a further slice of bread or cake and
put a plate over the top and a weight
on this, so as to hold the plate down
in place. When the pudding is cold,
turn out, and serve plain or with
Custard.

the result of mental impulse.
