cheerful, well-lghted, commodious store - four
large selling floors and two non-seling floors, each

Salads for All Winter.

For those who live away from the
large markets, where green salad ma
terial is procurable the year around, the
problem in the cold months of material
for q salad is often serious one for The
cook.
A salad without lettuce, to many, II
like mince pie without the mince, but
necessary as lettuce seems, attractive
salads may be served without II. Cab
bage, If treated az follows, may almost
take it's place. Cut part of the stem Of
one off and set it in bowl of water fol
several hours. The moisture which
will be drawn up through the stem will
make the flabby leaves crisp.
The tender center thus treated may bt
used in the same manner as lettuce
leaves or T. may be shredded before TIT
other salad material is placed on 1t, sug
gest Department of Agriculture special
lists.
Small raw carrots or turnips put
through meat grinder may be success
fully added to cooked vegetables for {
salad. Apples raw and sliced thin viii
furnish crispnsss when fresh plants art
not available.
Dried apricots, peaches or plums
when fully soaked, are delicious in {
salad. These are served uncooked. I
stuffed with cottage cheese they make I
dish fit to be served on any occasion.
Canned pineapple combined with cot

Some Ways Of Saving Fuel.

More heat will be obtained from less
coal II all heat absorbing surfaces are
kept free from SCOT and dust. Hot air
pipes carry more heat II clean.
Circulating air is more easily heated
than still air filed with impurities. To
get the maximum heat from coal, the
air in the house should be changed once
an hour.
Moist air heated to IS degrees F. ia
as comfortable az dry air heated to 70
or Is degrees, according to specialists OF
the Department OF Agriculture. The
moisture can be supplied by evaporation
of water at the point at which the heat
enters the room, In the case of the
furnace. A pan of water on the radiator
or stove will answer the same purpose.
If q continual FIRE in the range 10 not
absolutely necessary q combination of
wood and coal ia economical. Use wood
for the preparation of breakfast and
supper, and coal for the midday dinner
and principal baking.
The fireplace is luxury In winter
but an economy In spring and fall. Coal
should not be burned In the fireplace.
1t can be kept supplied in the rural
home by prunings from trees and shrubs,
bits of waste wood and broken boxes.
The fireplace insures ventilation and
affords means of burning rubbish.

Hartley L. Lord Of Auburn and his
great-uncle, Hon. Robert W. Lord, Of
Kennebunk, recently returned from .
weeks outing at Parlin Pond above Klneo
and near Jackman. Mr.. Lord says that
his uncle 10 81 years old, but no man who
has gone into the woods this year has
enjoyed IN outing better. Each morning
he would start out and hunt for some
beauty spot where the crimson leaves
were plenty or by the side of some run.

part of the day. A picnic dinner was one
OF the features and these he always
helped to cook. Mr.. Lord has q natural
love for the forest and stream. although
not caring to hunt for game. With him
1t is the love Of nature, and no man en-
joys the deep forest more than he. A
wonderful man for one of bis age is Mr..
Lord. It is needless to say that bis
nephew liked the sporting features, but
game was q bit scarce. A few birds and

Your Cleaning Closet.

A closet, cupboard, or wardrobe II
the kitchen Ia the best place for keeping
the cleaning utensils. A backstairl
closet is also good place. One end Of
back porch may be inclosed and used
for such q purpose. The closet should
have plenty of hooks and racks FOL
utensils and shelf for cleaning mate
rails.
The housekeeper should choose uten.
sils according to her own needs and
according to the requirements Of hel
house. Those suggested below are In
expensive and will help to tighten the
work of cleaning:
Bucket with wringer for hopping.
A piece of inch board IL inches square
with rollers makes convenient plat
| form on which to set the mop bucket,
and permits 1t to be moved easily with
out lifting.
Wall mop made by tying bag made
Of wool or cotton cloth over an ordinary
broom.
A broom, with hook screwed in the
end of the handle by which it can be
hung up.
A long-handled dustpsn.
Several brushes for cleaning purposes
Cheesecloth, worn silk and flannelette
for busters.
busters may be made by dipping
pieces of cheesecloth in two quarts Of
warm water to which one-half cup Of
kerosene has been added. These cloths
should be kept away from the stove OF
lighted lamp, as they are inflammable.
A black board eraser covered with
fannelette for stove polishing.
An oiled floor mop to use on oiled OF
polished floors. Several makes can be
found on the market, or one may be
made of old stockings or any discarded
wooden or flannelette material. The
material is cut into 1-inoh strips and
sewed across the middle to foundation
of heavy cloth. This is fastened to an
old broom handle or used in clamp
mop handle. The mop is dipped into Q
solution made of one-half cup melted
parafin and one cup kerosene and al
lowed to dry. To keep 1t moist, 1t is
rolled tight and kept in paper bag,
away from stove or lamp.
A carpet sweeper or u vacuum cleaner
should be used in the daily cleaning Of
the carpets and rugs. A vacuum cleaner
operated by hand or electric power re-
moves practically all The dust and dirt
from carpets and rugs in dustless man
