BEST METHODS OF
LAUNDERING FROCks

With another month of hot weather
before one and all the summer frocks
beginning TO look much the worse for
wear il is time TO think of freshening
them. Much the best way 10 do this
with most of them is by the use OF
soap and water though many people

VARIATIONS ON THE
THEME OF MAYONNA|SE

1t is not always practical TO make
mayonnaise dressing and there are a
number of ready made brands on inc
market that are quite possible to use
and mayonnaise that is bought at the
grocer's may be given an individual
taste by a little doctoring that Will
make it quite different from the same
mayonnaise served in any other house.
/ Among the spices and condiments
that may be added ip small amounts
to mayonnaise by way of changing the
flavor are mace. mustary. tarragon
vinegar, celery seed, worcestershire
sauce. orange juice and onion juice.
One woman who is noted for the
delicious mayonnaise she serves does
this: She buys two bottles of mayon-
naise at the same time-two different
brands. These she mixes. The re-
sulting flavor is something unique, and
something very good 10 boot.
If you haven't enough mayonnaise.
or if ii is too strongly favored with
pepper or mustard, you can dilute it
with whipped cream. If the diluting
process is undertaken simply because
the mayonnaise is too little, add nee
essary seasoning to bring it up to par
in that result.
You can also. use "a well cooked
white sauce to- dilute mayonnaise.
This, of course. brings down its cost
quite appreciably. And il. the thing
is carefully done. the results are worth
while, for with CAREFUL seasoning the
mixture is delicious.

on warm day when discolorations
on frozen, fruit buds and blossoms
would appear.
Meagre reports indicated that
there had been some damage to fruit

derstood to be unwilling to borrow
money on short term notes in anti
cipation of the sale Of the bonds. The
commission, under the law, has no
part in that phase Of the problem, it
being named merely to spend the
money after it is provided by the

Doubts are entertained as to wheth-
er the State will be able to sell the

Apparently it is a question Of borrow
