companied by a complete and de-
tailed sew chart. Start right now,
for even if there's a SILVER in the
air at this moment, Easter is not
very far off! And you'll want to
be ready!
Dress With Lifted Waistline.
This is very, very popular
fashion because it makes you look
so slim and graceful, what with
the waistline high in front, and
soft gathers above it, the gently
fiaring skirt. Made up in a pretty
print or silk crepe, it will be lovely
for Easter and for all Spring. Be
sure to wear bunch of flowers at
the neckline.
A Jumper Frock for Girls.
This is one of the sweetest and
most becoming styles ever inv 1T
ed for girls of school age, just
about the time they begin to shoot
up so fast that you can almost see
them grow! Make the jumper of
linen, gingham or percale, and
why not make two or three blouses
to go with it? One of linen, one of
dimity, and one of organdie.
Everybody Likes Dirndl Frock.
The square neckline, the full
ripping skirt and tight little waist,
are so flattering to slim figures!
Here's a charming dirndl with just
the right air of quaintress and
freshness about it. Choose gay
Powered print, or cheerful plain
color, pale or bright. But be sure,
whether you make it up in silk or
cotton, to choose a crisp fabric so
that the skirt will flare as it should.

AROUND
| THE HOUSE

Appetizing Eggs.-Poached eggs
will be made white and plump
and more appetizing if a tea
spoonful of milk is added to the
water before the eggs are placed
in the pan.
Don't Scar Meat.-Searing meat
will not hold the juices in, as
was formerly believed, but will
cause greater shrinkage and loss
of fat and moisture.
Filling for Representatives,
rice or macaroni mixed with
cooked meat makes a good filling
for green peppers or tomatoes.
The latter need to be cooked only
20 minutes in moderate oven.
Keeping Lemons Fresh.-Lem-
ons can be kept fresh and firm by
placing them in wide-necked pot
or jar and covering with water.
Warmed-Over Roast.-If a good
portion of roast is left over, soak
it 80 minutes in cold water and
then roast again for a short time.
It will be like a fresh joint.
To Protect Grates.-To keep
CRATES free from rust mix with
blacklead a little turpentine and
methylated spirit, equal parts of
each.
Cleaning Suede.-Clean soiled
suede shoes and belts with saw
dust slightly warmed in the oven.
Rub it over the surface with a
clean, soft rag, and to raise the
pile rub gently afterwards with a
piece of fine emery paper.
Importance of Pressing.-Most
hens should be pressed twice,
once after lacking; and again
after the seam is finished. Press
the hens on the wrong side over
a damp cloth.
Nursery Sweetmeat.-To make
honey candy-Butter a pan light
ly. Put in one pound of extracted
honey. Boil briskly for 20 min
utes, or until honey hardens when
dropped in cold water. Pour into
a buttered dish, and with a knife
blade work in a teaspoonful of
lemon essence. When cool enough
to handle dip the fingertips in
icing sugar and pull honey till
opaque. Form rolls or twists and
cut into pieces.
To Prevent Iron Sticking
When pressing curtains, add half
a teaspoonful sugar and a quar-
ter teaspoonful salt to each table
spoonful of starch.
