Some Shorts
 from Mrs. Shorty

Want a quick way to clean your gas range plates and burners? Take and old pail and fill it with hot water and add a tablespoon of Dran-o. Let the parts soak for an hour or so and they will be as easy to wash as a baby's face.
 Here's another quickee-To make your house smell good after boiled dinner, take a handful of perfumed moth crystals-the kind you buy at those nice brush demonstrations and throw them into the register of your furnace. When the blower starts to generate the house is de- oderized.
 Here's something good to eat-f you like it-While pound of el- bow macaroni is boiling away, brown a pound of hamburg. When they're both cooked, put them to- gether and add two cans of tomatoe soup undiluted. Don't forget to drain the macaronD ,. A little grated cheese tastes good sprinkled over it. This meal is complete with a tossed salad. It also saves the day when you have stayed in the yard too long chatting with your neigh bor.
 Did you ever try popcorn with milk and sugar over it? It's real tasty. Try it sometime as side dish when you serve waffles or pam cakes.
 Here's another-Polish your ma pie furniture with brown shoe pol ish-also your dark floors and watch them shine-It's a grand idea if you have children especially be- cause their finger prints don't show half as much and you don't have to polish only once month as it acts as sononize.
 You know those scatter rugs not the chenille ones-When you wash them dip them in a very thick starch and hang them out to dry. Just try 1t once and see how nice and flat they stay.
 Here's one for the youngsters room-If you have son who has
