This is an old Virginia recipe in use for
over century in the families of planters

and fatty bits left over from the liberal
provision for big families, hosts of guests.
and the liberal occupants of kitchen and
quarters" For "clean fat" substitute
any vegetable oil you wish to use. The
process is the same. Olive oil that was
not quite fresh enough for table use went
into the fat pot with animal oils. Take
six pounds of washing soda and three
pounds of unslacked lime, over which pour
four gallons of boiling water. Let II
stand until perfectly clear, then drain off.
Put in six pounds of clean fat or vegeta
BILE oil. Boil until it begins to harden
about two hours-stirring most of the
time. While boiling, thin with two gallons
of cold water. which you have poured on
the alkaline mixture after draining of

While on the subject of children's man.
ners, n correspondent has asked If I
would have something to say on the be-
havior of children and young girls when
introduced to older people, A very pretty
custom, which is prevalent at present, is
that the child introduced to an older per-
son should make a little curtsey when
offered, and the curtsey, should be madc
in any case. But 1t should be remembered
that this practice, while most charming
in a small child, becomes ridiculous in
girl of 16 years or more. Only last week
l heard two ladies laughing over girl of
16 years who had made the regular child's
bobbing curtsey on being introduced to
them. AS one of the ladies was just
about 20 herself, shedid not appreciate
the Difference shown to her age.
Another question which is often asked
about chlldren's manners is whether it
is still in good form for a child to say
YES sir" or "ma'am." This is considered
to belong to the courtesy due from serv-
ing maids; children who are well-bred
say Yes, mother" or, If they do not
use the person name the answer ''yes"
or mo" should be made in tone of polite
Difference.
