Household Hints
Cleaning Gas Range

Does your gas range give you
satisfactory service? II not a thor
ough cleansing may be all that is
needed to restore it to good condi-
ton. Never let the burners become
clogged with dirt or spilled food
At least once month they should
be removed and boiled in soapy
water to which a little washing soda
or I've has been added. After boil
ing they should be scrubbed with
a stiff bristled brush. Before wash
ing the enameled parts of the gas
range, wait until the surface has
cooled, otherwise cracking may re-
suit Go over the range with a
soapy cloth every day and wipe up
Immediately all spilled foods. Stub
born discolorations will usually
yield to little baking soda or
Kerosene.
When cleaning the gas range do
not neglect the water heater and
other appliances. Dust and cor
rosion on the coils act as insula-
tors, keeping the heat from reach
ing the water.
b Clr Peeling Onions
Pour hot water over onions, al
low them to remain for a few min
utes. then drain and pour cold
water over them. Then the skins
can be removed easily
Ink Stains on Hands
A solution of peroxide OF hydro
gen containing a few drops of am
monia will remove ink stains from
the hands.
When Too Much Salt
If food is too salty. place a wet
cloth over the top Of the vessel
which is cooking The steam viii
