LAUNDRY HINTS

If you will fold your tableeloths
lengthwise as you iron them, ard
in thirds rather than in halves,
you will have a smooth section in
the center which will help you in
setting an attractive table and in
arranging your table decorations.
Add starch to worn tablecloths
and napkins when giving them the
final rinse. 1t will make them last
longer and look better.
Washing cretonne covers in bran
water will aid in preserving their

shiny and worn will be improved
in appearance by being spongeo

HELPS FOR
HOUSEWIVES

If a member of your family is
in need Of strength, real beef juice
may be desired. The post-operative
or the one who greatly needs
nourishment but has no appetite
will find it extremely beneficial.
Buy about two and half pounds
of fresh beef requesting the
meek" portion. Trim off every bit
of sinew and fat. Cut it in tiny
pieces Then put it in jar or a
bottle and shut tight after you
have seasoned with salt, which also
helps to draw out the blood.
Put the bottle in deep tin filled
with cold water in sufficient guam
tity to cover the bottle. Then put
on the stove and let it come to
the boiling point and keep on
after this, slowly boiling it for six
hours-adding water as it bolls
away.
The juice separates from the
meat and the meat is drained OF
all its goodness-so the meat is
not to be used afterWard. This will
make about two good cups of beef
Juice. You can figure about a
pound of meat to cup OF juice.

into the pan and season. Add
some sliced bread and some finely
chopped swiss cheese.
