Kill Flies by Wholesale

HANDWRITING of flies is an occupa-
ton for which only the leisure class
has time. Most housewives must have
a quicker method. The United States govern
ment, nclinng its august ear to the wall of the
overworked swatter, offers two solutions which
are death to flies, but harmless to children:
A formaldehyde solution of approximately
the correct strength may be made by adding
three teaspoonfuls of the concentrated for
maldehyde solution, commercially known as
formalin, TO pint of water
The proper solution of sodium salicyIate may
be obtained by dissolving three teaspoonfuls Of
the pure chemical Ia POWDER to a pint of
water
The government also offers a mothers helper
sort of suggestion to how TO make a fly
fountain of the solution.
An ordinary thin-walled drinking glass is
filled, or partly filled, with the solution. A
saucer or small plate, in which is placed a
piece of 'Ohite plotting paper cut the size Of the
dish, is put bottom up over the glass. The
whole is then quickly inverted, match placed
under the glass, and the container is ready
for use
AS the SOLUTION aries OUT OF Jne saucer, the
liquid seal at the edge of the glass is broken
and more liquid flows into the lower receptacle.
OF course an obvious advantage is that no
one will careessly drink the contents of the
glass if the glass is upside down. Unless, per-
chance, in topsy- turvy house.
A much more poetic method is TO drive away
the flies with pleasant odors; that is, odors
pleasant to humans and very distasteful to flies.
Lavender is the flies favorite dislike. Take
five cents worth Of oil Of lavender, mix it with
the same amount of water, put it in a common
glass atomizer and spray it around the dining
room, even on the table linen.
Tramp flies, after such experience, will
chalk outside the windows warning TO friends,
Beware this perfumed room. Fly while the
nying's good"

it-and what this beef tenderer does to il is
plenty.
1t is queer little metal box, inside Of which
revolve six toothed knives, which give the beef
preliminary chewing that takes the sinful
pride out of the most 0bstinately leathery Of
steaks.
Just spread out the steak on board and roll
this miniature mower back and forth over it
two or three times. After that toothless in
FAINT or nonagenarian ought to be able to ne
gotiate it, for not fibre remains unchanged
Another advantage is that tough beefsteak
can be made edible without taking the en-
tire neighborhood into your confidence as to
what you are planning for dinner. There is no
pounding a lawn-mower-like action
back and forth, and the job is done.
And after it is DONE all trace Of the dire
deed may be removed without difficulty, be,
cause the device comes apart easily for clean
ing.
Price, $3.50.

What an attractive Sign viii Do

TN THE recent campaign to prevent the sale
Of artifcially colored and favored stuff
under the name of Orangeade, one little
stand on the East Side presented particularly
fragrant case.
The investigator told the proprietor posi-
lively that he must either refrain from calling
the concoction Orangeade, or stop selling 1t.
In the course of making his checking-up
round the following week he was surprised to
find Abe's stand Haunting big sign reading
"Orangeade: Artifcially Colored and Highly
Adulterated."
"You see, I'm following rules" grinned the
proprietor.
"But-hasn't it ruined your business?"
Business was never so good! You see, them
words 'colored and highly sounds good, and
they don't know anything about the rest Of Il.
They don't care. It's just good-looking sign
to them" N. S. C.

1t is for just such places that this little lamp
is provided Any housewife will see its posi-
bilities for me bathroom, nursery or sickroom
The lamp is made of nickel plated brass and
consists of a circular disk-like oil reservoir
with a gooseneck stem that contains the wick
Mounted on the upper end of this stem is an
Opaque china globe When the lamp is set
down or hung by the ring it remains in YER
teal position and burns kerosene oil without
producing either odor or smoke.
1t is possible to regulate the size Of flame
produced, therefore the lamp is especially con-
venient in places where low light is con-
stantly required. The oil chamber when full

this will give forty hours service. Price, 10

Holt No. S Cup-Beater

Made by Holt-Lyon Company, Isrrytown, N. I.
This egg-beater differs from others of the
Dover type in having the beater part egg
shaped instead of circular Because of this It
not only fits into cup or glass quite as easily
as other small cup-beaters, but also beats one
egg in bowl quite as well as in a cup.
It's ability is by no means confined to one
egg for it can take care of four or five quite az
easily. It's strong hold upon the affection II
the housewife lies in the fact that it can do
both. This means one more utensil that will
take the place of two.
In the test given in the Tribune Institute
laboratory this beater whipped one egg white
into a stiff standing froth in Is seconds, and
brought four whites to the same pitch of excel
lence in less than 60 seconds.
Price, 20 cents.

The full convenience of this small night lamp
is felt in the country home which has neither
gas nor electricity, for it is a small adjustable
oil lamp that can be set on a table or ledge or
hung on the wall as desired.
Even in houses where gas or electricity Is
available there are often dark places on the
stairs or in the hall which need illuminating.

w nth every provident housewife
wv studying and planning how
she can conserve the present
food supply, the menus for the coming
week comprise dishes that not only
will be found extremely good eating"
but also fairly inexpensive, as the in.
gradients are plentiful just now.
Bread used for luncheon and break
fast is made either from whole wheat,
rye. bran or corn meal. These same
materials can be made into tempting
dinner rolls, bread sticks or loayes OF
bread for the evening meal, thereby
saving the wheat -four for export.
II may seem little thing to do en-
tirely without white bread, but the
caterer who takes this stand in plan
ming her weekly menus is helping ma
terially in releasing a greater quantity
of the less perishable wheat flour that
il so sorely needed abroad.

housekeeper should feel it her duty,
as we'll as her pleasure, to serve them
beautifully upon the family table.
Two fish dinners are given for the
week: the planked mackerel served on
Tuesday and the broiled bluehsh on
Saturday. The former will doubtless
give sufficient leftover fish for the FISH
mousse for Wednesdays luncheon and
the latter a fish salad for the Sunday
night supper. The recipe for the hsh
mousse is particularly recommended
as suited to a suItry summer day, and
every housekeeper should try the
recipe.
