Q.-Please tell me what
will set" the color in a dress
made of blue and white
printed wolfe? X. e. M.
A.-Not all colors are fast,
but the following rules are worth
trying:
To fix or '.set" shades Of blue,
soak garments 80 minutes In a
bucket Of cold water in which one
ounce of sugar Of lead has been
dissolved. Alum dissolved in
water will help to preserve shades
of green. Dark cOlors and plaids
are usually fixed by soaking them
in water containing vinegar, light
shades by soaking them in q solu-
ton of salt.

Dear Miss Grey: Will you
please give space in your
column for a suggestion on
cherry canning? A great
many people can cherries
with the pits in because
they add to the flavor. Here
is my way. 1 pit the cher
ries and boil the pits for
about five minutes in water
am going to use for the
syrup; then lift them out,
make syrup and put in the
cherries. This way the flavor
is the same as If the pits had
been left in and the cherries
are much nicer both for des-
sert and for pie. This is a
little late for this season, but
someone may care to try It
next year. MRS. e. G. @.

and I'm sure many a housewife
will take advantage Of IL.
