milk so that each side is thoroughly
covered with liquid. Hold the paper
up to drain off all Superf1uous liquid.
Put it Immediately over the jar filled
and steaming hot.
Gently press the paper to the glass,
being careful not to tear 1t. nor to have
any tiny space where the paper does
not come IN contact with the glass.
Over this first paper cover put
another, following these same direc-.
lions. When the contents has cooled
and the paper Is dry it will be as tight
as a drum and something like parch-
ment. It will be alright.
To supply alright covers for jelly
which coolS before putting on tops, use
the following method. Cut rounds Of
paper large enough to cover the open
ing and extend three-quarterS of an
inch down over the glass all around.
Use a good grade Of white wrapping
paper. or inexpensive stationery. Some
sheets from letters received, and have
them in readiness for the purpose.
Lay a piece of the paper over the
tumbler, and press it down, leaving a
distinct outline impression of the glass
edge. Slash the paper outside this line
every half inch or so nearly to the line.
Moisten the Slashed portion with the
white or egg. AGAIN place Jne paper
over the tumbler. Press the slashed
edges down to the glass until they adj
here securely. The egg white is muci-
lagenous and will hold the overlap
ping sections tight to the glass.
The jelly may have been covered
with parafin first or with a small circle
of tissue or thin white paper. Paraffin
shavings, put in the glass before the
jelly is poured in, will rise and seal the
contents alright. Where contents have
particles in it like jam. etc. the best
way is to pour little melted paraffin
over the top and not put it in first. All
jams, jellies. preserves and can goods
should be so covered in one of these
ways before putting on the outside
paper top, or glass, or tin cover.

dirt lodged there will be removed and

will close them. Any one who care
fully follows the directions and uses a
weekly facial pack is not likely to be
much troubled with such blemishes, as
enlarged pores and blackheads.
Another good facial pack which Is
used in the same way as the above may
be made by mixing corn meal, fine oat-
meal or almond meal to paste with
sour milk or buttermilk. The milk has
a tendency to bleach the skin and those
troubled with freckles or moth patches
will find it beneficial for fading these
