 ''V.: wEll you please suggest, some simple refreshnaent that I can serve In the evening to a young man who Is calling for the first time? And please tell me just how to serve 1t and whether I should always serve some thing to young nsn who call in the evening""

 It is a nice custom for young girl to serve something such as this when she knows 8 young man intends to call on her; when a young man calls unexpectedly, the gdrl can make cocoa and servo it with bought cook les or crackers if she has no cake on hand. Again. @ young girl can enter tain her caller very successfully by letting him make candy with her on the kitchen stove or in a chahng dish  men appreciate such hospitality as this. And think 1t is especially nice for a girl to serve simple home re- treatments to young men who. fre- quentIy take her out to the theatre or entertain her otherwise. Unslgned: 'Kindly tell me what will take grease out of wall paper" Answer, Place @ piece of clean the wall paper, and press hot iron against the blotter; in this way the heat from the iron goes through the blotter and dissolves the grease on the wall paper which is absorbed by the blotter.
 A Reader of Your Paper; "Please state in your column if it is necessary to peel the green tomatoes in making the Old Time Chow+Chow you printed recently? Also tell me how to can string beans.''
 Answer: No it is not necessary to skin the green tomatoes. Send for my printed article on Cold Pack Canning, which will tell you how to can all the fruits and vegetables i'm cluding string beans.

'I have made grape juice preparatory to making grape jelly, but the juice is covered with sharp pal ticles like bits of glass. What is 1t? And how am I to get rid of it If I heat it and strain again through
 
 will this remove the particles or will they form again in the je1ly?'
 Answer: You were wise to write me before going ahead. If you had heat ed the juice you would have undone great deal of good. The juice of any fruit which is bottled to use later for Jelly making must have no sugar added to it. When grape juice is bottled in this way, crystals will form from the tartaric acid in it. The thing to do after the crystals have formed and settled. is to pour off the juice very carefully so as not to dis turb the sediment which contains these crystals. Then you can go ahead and make your grape jelly from the juice. The crystals have formed in the juice. so you will not be annoyed by their forming in the jelly-you have gotten rid of them
