SUGGESTIONS FOR
THE HOUSEWIFE.

SUGGESTIONS FOR
 THE HousEwlFE. Instead of pouring custard over sliced bananas, try pressing the fruit through sieve and stirring in the custard just as 1t comes from the fire. The consistency, as we'll as the flavor, win prove most pleasing.
 If flowers are wflted when received, place them loosely in a large tub of water and let them lie for an hour or two before you put them in water. It is a good idea to wipe carpet all over with cloth wrung out of water (Two teaspoonfuls to @ gallon of wa ter.)
 Every housewife should have one day in the week for which nothing is planned. That day can be devoted to odds and ends and things which have no name.
 When making startch. try using soapy water instead of the plain wa ter. This will give a much better gloss to the clothes and the irons will not stick.
 Wash Iaces which have become stained with precipitation in cold water and soap. After the stains have been removed put them into warm water. Spots on carpets and rugs in most instances may be removed by spong- ing with oxgalI or with ammonia and water. in the first place taking care 1 to rinse thoroughly.
 When little speck of grit or dust gets into the eye, try shutting the eye for a few minutes, or violent blowing of the nose will sometimes bring the | speck out. An inexpensive kitchen convenience I is quart milk can, covered in which
 milk. soup, custard or any liquid may be put into the refrigerator, taking small space. 1 Chicken feed, If scraped and boiled down in water, will make a delicious 1 jelly. If desired, boiled rice may be
 mixed with the broth before pouring l into the bowl to set.
 To wash a rug. tack it securely to | a bare clean ffoor; next scrub with 1 ammonia water and pure castillo soap- suds; rinse thoroughly and leave
 tackled to the floor until perfectly dry
