Kept Apple 48 Years

The record of a New York woman
in preserving apples for 20 years
has been exceeded by Mrs Ida
Cooper. of Philadelphia.
Mrs. Cooper has an apple that is
forty-eieht years old, she says. 1t
was given to her when she was five
years old by her mother. Mrs Mag
gle Glenn. 1t is in state OF Splen-
did preservation, due it is said, to
cloves.
Mrs. Cooper explains the curiosi-
ty in this way: AS child she
was fond of sticking pins in apples.
Her mother persuaded her to use
cloves. so she began filling this par,
ticular apple, she says, with the
cloves
She kept this up until the apple
was covered with cloves. Then
she put it away, and it has been in
the family ever since. Boone

Mrs. liOusemakerS Suggestion 10
Housewives.
Here are some tried and true
house cleaning hints.
If the wall Taper looks dirty, try
cleaning it with this mixture: A
quart of -four, a tablespoonful of
bottle blulne, tablespoonful Of
alcohol, a level Tablespoonful of
powdered alum, ard add enough
water to make a stiff batter like
bread sponge Bake fifteen or
twenty minutes in an INCREASED
pan. Pour on a bread board all
| that will come without any OF the
brown crust. Mix into it finely
rolled crackers until it is too stiff
to stick to the Taper. Rub the
paper. with small piece of this,
changing it as often as it becomes
soiled. Keep the large lump folded
ina damp cloth to keep lit from
drying out too quickly.
Most .housekeeptIs merely air
their pillows at CLEANING time, but
If they will stop to think of the
cold and other disease. germs they
mays contain they will give them a
yearly bath. A coed way is to put
the pillows into the clothes boiler,
and to each five gallons Of water
allow one bar of good laundry soap
previously dissolved Do one pillow
at a time. II the tick is much
soiled add household ammonia in
the proportion Of tablespoonful
to a gallon of water.
Into a second receptacle, in viii, b
the water is clear and tepid, the
pillow is plunged and allowed to
come to a boil; then remove it from
the fire and let the pillow remain
in It until the water is cool enough
for the hands to be put into it.
Press the pillow to see that all the
soap is out; if not a second rincinG
is nes eSsary. After pressne out as
much water as possible hang the
pillow Oh the line and shake
frequently.
A hard part of house cleaning
work is the lifting of heavy mat
trcsSeS; it is rot so much their
weight as their awkardneSs that
makes handling difficult. To over
come this sew heavy webbing SC
that it lies flat at each end of the
mattress. making a sort Of handle
at the four corners. This removes
strain from the corners of the
ticking, which soon shows wear and
if the handles are sewed to il
simply at the corners.
BY using sponges instead Of
cloths it is possible to save the
| trouble Nnd litter of dirty rags. Buy
two 10-cent spongers-the Close
solid kind and keep one for soapy
! water and one for rinsing.TEx.
