GOOD HOUSEKEEPING.
BY Henrietta Grsuol.
FROM THE POTTER's WHEEL.

| From earliest times rude vessels OF
burnt clay were used to hold foods and
| though the potter's wheel and effective
methods of glazing earthen ware have
produced china beautiful beyond descrip-
| ton, the common clay crock and bowl
| arc still precious possessions in the col
lection of our every day utensils.
The greatest maker Of earthenware in
England was Josiah Wedgewood who
made "Thc Pottcries," a strip of clay
barrens six by eight miles long, produce
! wares famous throughout the civilized
world. The quality of the clay used
decides the kind of pottery, stone china,
or fine china that will be produced The
red pottery of which crooks, pans casseroles
marmit and such work-a-day dishes arc
made is common brickclay. 1t is often
glazed with litharge of lead ground with
the clay. This glaze is almost transparent
and the rich colors of the clay show
through handsomely. The lead, however,
has been found to cause intestinal poison
ing when acid foods have been kept in
these convenient containers so that salt
glazed ware is more in demand. In some
countries lead glazed vessels may not be
sold for household use The salt glaze
IS produced by throwing coarse salt into
the kiln during firing.
Brown stonewarc bears fire as we'll as
the fired red clay and crooks and pipkins
arc In use today abroad that have been
boiled and baked in for generations
That ware known so well to every house
keeper as "Queensware' was so called
at first in honor of Queen Charlotte whose
generosity made it possible for it's manu-
facturers to experiment with the pure
white clay and ground flint until a creamy
ware, low priced enough to be within
reach of everyone, was produced.
1t is not hard to find the most graceful
forms and covencnt shapes in cheap clay.
for the colors are soft and attractive
of themselves, the shapes are usually the
most convenient to mold and the decora-
tons must necessarily be simple In de-
sign. Having bought the few good pieces
needed for cooking and baking a Ia
casserole soak the ware over night In
cold water before using it: this renders
it less liable to crack or crackle. II YOU
have a real liking for clay ware and have
selected generous assortment of cook
ing and serving ware,-a jug or two, Jam
pots and certain squat bowls that YOU
could not resist, YOU will find it will pay
you TO have a wooden bowl In which to
wash them. Indeed a wooden bowl is a
safer wash pan for all sorts of glass and
china than one of metal for IT prevents
many 1nsightly chips. A dish mop and
washing soda are the needed cleansing
helps. Soap should not be used on I'm
glazed clay for this material absorbs all
ifavors and 1t IS almost impossible TO
scald it sufficiently to remove the soapv
taste. After the pottery dishes are wash
ed. rinse we'll with hot water and place
them 10 dry IN rack.
When. earthen ware of any SOFT is
broken it may be repaired by making
paste of cottage cheese mixed with un-
slaked lime and boiling water Mix this
to 8 smooth paste and apply it to the dry.
clean, broken edges. White lead may
also be used with the best results.

PRINCESS LIMA.

1
] Princess Lima lived in q place with
her father, the King, and stepmother
who Ind a daughter Of her own named
Zida
| The stepmother wanted her daughter
which that could come TO pass was
| for Iida to marry prince, and with
! Princess Lima out of her way the Queen
| thought she could bring it about.
! 1t happened that the King WAS not
only very fond of his own daughter
but very proud of all her accomplish
| ments.
One day the Queen said TO the King
with all of Princess Lina's accom-
plishments it is too bad she cannot cook.
She then would be perfect"
Instantly the King decided that
Princess Lima should learn to cook
and this was just the thing the Queen
wished. for then the Princess would
have to stay in the kitchen while her
daughter would always be dressed and
ready TO see all who happened to visit
the palace, and there were often princes
dining there.
One dav there came to the palace
Prince Joel. who was the son of n very
rich king, and the Queen gave orders
that the very best dinner the cooks
could serve be set before him that night,
for she knew that the way to the heart
of all mon, be they prince or peasant,
WIS easiest reached by we'll filled table.
Princess Lima, when she heard there
was to be royal guest at the table
begged to be allowed TO cook the din
ner and the palace cooks let her have
her way.
Prince Joel ate of all the food With
great relish, but when he came to the
dessert, which was n beautiful cream
pie, he could no longer keep from speak
ing.
"Your cook must be one of the best, +"
he said TO the Queen and King, who did
not know that the Princess had any
thing to do with the dinner
''lf IL were not so unfriendly a thing
to do said the Prince, Il should try
to carry home with me the ono who
prepared this wonderful pie
It happened that one of the servants
the Queen treated Princess Lima he
decided to tell the Prince who made
the cream pie.
ing along in the garden, he said Would
who made the cream pie"
OF course the Prince wanted to sec
the COOK, even If he could not have her
But when the servant took him to the
kitchen and he saw the beautiful Princess
he fell in love with her
The servant seeing bow it was with
the Prince, whispered to him that she
was really the Princess Lima. and not
a cook at all
The Prince remained for few. days,
and every night, If thr Queen had looked
IN the garden she would have seen Prince
Joel valking with the Princess
At the end OF his visit the Queen
waited in vain fer the prince TO ask
for her daughters hand in marriage.
but instead she received note from
Prince Joel, which read: II have taken
one of your cooks instead of your daughter.
You have many cooks. but only one
daughter, 50, am sure, you will not
think me greedy
