Thrifty Tips for the

by FLO.


!, Straw Mating Sponge straw mat
ting with strong salt water. Cocoa
nut mating should be well beaten,
scrubbed with warm water and salt,
rinsed, and then hung in the open
air to dry.
Windows When windows are hard
to open, rub the cords with soft soap
and the sashes will run smoothly.
Onions-When cooking onions a
little vinegar placed on the stove in
an earthen jar will prevent the smell
getting through the house.
Adhesive Tape-To remove adhes'
i've tape from the skin, saturate a
sponge with benzine wash the tape
with it, and it can be pulled off with
out any trouble.
Meringue-If a teaspoonful OF
water is added after the sugar is
beaten in, your meringue will be very
light: Az pinch of baking powder
added while beating is also very
good.
Starch-If few shavings of can
die are added to starch, the clothes
will shine and be very easily ironed.
Mahogany-If washed with vine.
gar or cold tea, all spots will disap-
pear and mahogany will look like
new.
Sink-If lump of kitchen salt is
kept in the sink, it will keep the
pipes and sink clean.
Enamel Utensils-When enamel
kitchen utensils appear hopelessly
ruined after food has been burned in
them, place mixture of strong soap
powder in them and allow to stand
three or four days without changing
the water. Then pour the water off
and rub with a soft cloth. All the
blackness will disappear: Do not
scrape before soaking as the enamel
will crack.
Yarns-Yarns can be thoroughly
shrunk when in the skeins, and then
will not shrink when the article
made from it is washed Place the
wool in vegetable steamer on a
plate When dry, it will be soft and
fluffy, and will be unshrinkable
