10 renQer 1t d1geSt1ble for baby.
I've always read that sustained heat
reduced valuable vitamins found
in eggs and minimum cooking time
was desirable in all forms Of egg
cookery. At the advice of q very
fine pediatrician I've fed my baby
the sieved yolk of an egg boiled
IL to Is minutes since he was 10
weeks old. I always let the egg
stand In a cup OF hot water while
waiting for water to boil to re-
move refrigerator chill and make
cooking time more accurate.
To dissolve that brown rust stain
in your sterilizing vessels cover the
bottom with lemon juice or vinegar
and shake of salt and boil 3 to S
minutes. Keep the lid on and steam
will dissolve ring around sides. This
process dissolved an incruSted
mineral residue on bottom of my
enamel boiler that seemed to resist
all application of cleansing powder.

GOLD STAR MOTHER"
By B. E. Lincoln.
There's Gold Star mother somewhere
Thinking OF her son today,
She remembers how he left her,
AS he proudly marched away
Just a Gold Star Mother somewhere
Who recalls the days gone by,
When her son was Just youngster,
Fun and laughter in his eye.
But he heard the bugle calling
With the rest he stepped in file,
Went across ana did bis duty,
And am very glad to knew him
AS comrade and friend.
fs the seides oi anf haE met thsv his maker
NeHsr he aea5ns paas in for ssp an rnSsn instant
As she she thin thinks s'af Of Ganto him todsy sSme"hefe
Just remember as a soldier,
How he proudly marched away.
Just remember him as happy
n. Glad to be in with the rest.
never SniIkeQ single duty
Always stood up with the best
May she knows all his comrades
noSa Scattered @ IT through the country side.
Who has crossed the great divide"

THANK YOU NOTE;
WHIP CREAM.
(Thanks to Mrs. E. D. r.,
Arlington.)
I'd like to thank the lady who sent
in the tip on poinsettia care. 1 am
having good luck with my cuttings
already.
Here's suggestion for the home
makers who miss having whipped
cream. F. I put a can of condensed
milk in pan of cold water (the can
must be covered) and let 1t heat,
then boil five minutes. I put the
cooled can in the refrigerator until
cold. The milk then beats nicely. /
sWeetened 1t with maple sirup. It
saves sugar and Is very good.
PUSSY WILLOWS.
Thanks to Mrs. M. A. A.,
SilUer Spring.
You can keep pussy willows for
year or more by putting them in a
vase without water Cut as soon as
they are out in full bloom. I have
a French willow, the large blooms,
and keep them every year. Wish
ing you success!

RESILVERING MIRROR.
Thanks to Mrs. C. E. B.,
Wdshington.)
Mrs. D. v. p, Staunton, Va, who
wishes to resilver her mirror will be
unable to do it herself. There are
high priorities on the materials, and
I doubt if novice could do a good
job. It's rather an art. If no one in
the locality is equipped to do it,
suggest that she 60 to good hard
ware store, and consult an expert
enced person there.
This is my first contribution to
the fine, helpful RICH. In order to
keep it the good neighbor ex-
change" every one must give some
bit of knowledge to one who asks for
1t, for every one has useful hints
and ideas another can use, and the
person who thought up the RCH
had one Of the best of 'em!
Editors note: We say thank
