OF INTEREST TO
THE HOUSEWIFE

If you store eggs with the small
ends down they will keep better.
Your doughnuts will have that
different flavor if one half stick of
bark of cinnamon and four whole
cloves are added to the fat used in
frying them.
Filling for a sponge cake is
made by creaming three ounces
of fresh butter and six ounces of
sifted icing sugar, adding two
ounces of chopped pineapple and
a little pineapple syrup.
A thin syrup of sugar and water
favored with almond essence is
good to sweeten fruit cup. ..,
If sirup for hotcakes is heated
before serving it brings out the
favor of the sirup and does not
chill the hotcakes.
When the frying pan becomes
slightly burnt, drop a raw peeled
potato into the pan for a few
minutes. Then remove it, and all
traces of burning will have dis
appeared.
Stockings can become a very
expensive item for the mother Of
school-children-who are always
falling down and tearing big holes
in the knees. Try this way of re-
pairing an outsize hole: Take a
piece of strong net to match the
stocking and place over the hole
on the inside of the stocking. Then
darn the hole with wool that exact
ly matches the stocking on the
right side of the stocking through
the net. The repair, you will find,
will be scarcely visible.
Date Kisses - Thirty stoned
dates, one cup almonds, white one
egg, one cup powdered sugar.
Chop dates; blanch almonds and
cut into long strips. Beat egg very
stiff, add sugar, dates and al
monds. Drop in buttered tins with
teaspoon and bake in quick oven.
To keep the crease in mems

soap down the crease with a piece
of dry soap, then turn back to the
right side and press, using a damp
cloth. The crease will remain. for

Lizards and Birds Can

In Burma there is a brilliant liz
ard with a skin that almost rivals
the colors Of the gorgeous king
fisher. The body is a glorious ul-
tramarine blue, with reddish him
der parts, while from head to shoul-
der there are broad white bands.
If he thinks he is not being watched
by an enemy, relates a writer in
London Tit-Bits Magazine, you see
him in his wonderful dress, but
startle him. and you see what
quick-change artist can do.
He runs down the trunk of a tree,
and the blue has disappeared, for
he is almost invisible against his
sombre background. He lands on
the ground, standing on bare earth,
and he is now clothed in a dull
brown coat which makes it difficult
to distinguish him. When he gains
confidence, he runs up the tree
again; he is once more in the sun
shine among the green leaves, and
his glory returns. No matter where
he is, his coat will agree with his
surroundings.

l. know what he was letting
himself in for when he decid-
ed to go to New York for a
few weeks and do his broad
casting from there. So many
requests for tickets came in,
and from very important
people too, that the largest
studio at Radio City wasn't
anywhere near big enough to
hold them.
So, National Broadcasting COM
pany had to rent the biggest ball
room of the Waldorf-Astoria and
send the Benny broadcast out from
there. Jack is one of those big,

AS Rodents Teeth Wear

When rodents teeth do not meet

he dies slow and involuntary sui
eide, says a report by DR.. D. G.
Steele, professor of genetics at the
Connecticut State college, according
to Science Service. Unlike the
teeth of man those of rodent
grow through its entire life. If by
some chance they do not meet each
other and wear down they often
grow up through the mouth and into
the nasal or brain cavities. The up
per teeth grow down into the lower
jaw. Extreme pain, infection and
death usually result.

on its eggs laid among a mass of
dead leaves, is passed unnoticed
by most of US, but if the light falls
upon its big eye it resembles bril-
liant black diamond, and for this
reason the bird will sit with it's body
fiat on the ground, and its eyes
almost closed.
The same applies to the nightjar.
AS it sits on its eggs laid on the

Edgar Bergen, the ventriloquist
who has become such a favorite on
the Rudy Vallee radio hour, has
joined the wonderful array of coma
les, opera singers, and dancers that
Sam Goldwyn has lined up for his
Goldwyn Follies. Bergen's skill as
a ventriloquist was developed when
he was just a youngster. He liked
to play jokes on his mother, max
ing strange voices call to her from
various parts of the room. Later he
worked his way through Northwest
ern university giving shows at col
lege parties.
Apparently Sam Goldwyn won't
be happy until he signs up simply
everyone of note in the entertain
ment world for his Follies company.
Over in London he has put Vera
Zorina, sensationally successful
young ballerina, under contract.
You may have seen her in person,
