(FrOnt Mrs. G. I. f., ShGGyS1Ge)
What suggestion can you read
ers give for cleaning and refin-
ishing knotty pine paneling in a
large living room. This paneling
was put in 10 years ago and was
finished with linseed oil. Nothing
has been done to it since and the
accumulation of dust, dirt and
the CRIME and grease from the
hands of workmen in the present
remodeling job made it look
dreadful. Don't think that ! want
the slick finish of varnish or shell
lac, but I would prefer something
more mellow like wax. The i'm
mediate problem Is cleaning 1t
satisfactorily. Would very much
appreciate any suggestions.
Many thanks to the lady who
told how to keep the scum of
clothes washed in an automatic
washer. How much whittier my
clothes look.

=Reoders' Clearing House
pICKLED BEANS.

From Mrs. L. d., Washington }
In reply to Mrs. F. M. J.'s query
in The Star, relative to preparing
picked beans, ! will say I have
made many jars of these beans
while living on the farm and the
procedure is very simple. First
select good firm beans, not too
young, best with developed bean
in pod. In the markets one may
buy beans known as corn beans or
corn hill beans. Prepare and cook
until tender in plain unsalted
water. Remove from fire, put
generous layer in stone jar. slightly
sprinkle in salt and so on until jar
is filled. Let stand until cool, then
cover beans with clean white cloth.
Next put clean board. prepared
to fit jar, on this place weights
to hold beans under the brine.
They will sour after the same
manner as sauerkraut. They should
be kept fairly warm. not allowed
to become chilled. If placed on
outside porch cover with clean
quilt at night.
The beans will have terrible
odor while souring, but don't be
discouraged as they are a dish f1t
for a king when finished. Too
much salt will prevent souring, so
use it sparingly. The cut short
bean mentioned can be found in
some seed catalogs, but is a name
usually handed down from family
to family. If you live in a small
don't try to make these
beans as the odor would be over
poWering.

BRAZIL NUT CAKE:
ROLLS.


(Fronl Mrs. E. H., The PlGiasJ
Grind enough Brazil nuts to
make 2 cups. Mix in I cup sugar
and "a teaspoon salt. Beat 6 egg
yolks until foamy and then beat
in the nut and sugar mixture.
Beat the 6 egg whites and fold into
the nut mixture. Pour into two
or three 8-inch layer pans and
bake in $50 degree oven for 80
minutes. Or you may pour into
a tube pan or spring form and
bake in a 325 degree oven for 40
minutes, then raise temperature to
375 for 10 minutes and then bake
in a 1925 degree oven for 80 min
utes. The pans must be well
creased before the dough is poured
in. I use the tube pan method
and when baked ice it with q
thin lemon icing.
Sometime ago there was a re-
quest for our favorite rolls so here
are mine. They have never failed
to bring out praise. I make them
by the hundreds for banquets and
other affairs.
Crumble / cake yeast in 2 cups
lukewarm milk or half water and
half milk. Add 4 tablespoons mar
garine, 2 tablespoons sugar and
l teaspoon salt. Beat in 3 cups
-four and then knead in about 8
cups more. When the dough is
nice and smooth, roll out to about
" inch. Cut rounds II use my
doughnut cutter with the hole out)
Brush with melted butter. and
margarine, fold over to shape as
Parker House rolls. Lay them in
creased pans so they barely touch.
Let rise for about to 112 hours
and then bake. You will have 4
dozen delicious rolls.

as to whether my teen-ager

that I'm doing the right thing by
requiring him to go. RAISE them
up in the way they should go
and when they are old they will
not depart from it." Also, I am
a firm believer in daily reading of
a chapter from the Holy Book,

this bit of trouble. This ever best

COOKING GREEN SHRIMP.
(From Mrs. M. A. G.. Washington
To the lady who wished to know
how to cook green shrimp, I have
this suggestion. Do remove the
shell and vein before cooking; it
makes all the difference in the
world in the taste. I do this under
running water and it is not un-
pleasant. Then. to a quart of
water add 1 teaspoon salt, juice
of half a lemon, S peppercorns and
half of a medium sized onion
sliced. Bring this to boil and
add your pound of shrimp drop
ping these in gradually SO as not
to stop the boiling of the water.
Turn gas low to simmer and allow
shrimp to simmer for S minutes.
Remove and cool and you'll be de-
lighted with the flavor I'm sure
as you have none Of that flavor
from the shell or vein.

SPENDING TINE.


(Frot Mrs. E. F. S., Washington
Mrs. Fl. S., Washington: For
the last few years have been
faced with the problem of very
poor sight and q few other handi-
caps. At first I studied Braille
I am very slow reading it. but
enjoy writing Braille. I have
corresponded with some totally
blind people.
Crocheting pot holders with rug
yarn is not expensive and they
make nice gifts. Then I at
tempted afghans and have made
several of them and 10 baby car
riage robes.
I have now taken up post card
collecting as a hobby and find il
very time absorbing as well as
interesting. I have recently
found a sewing machine needle
threader that I can use with my
eyes shut. After not being able
to sew for four years, I am de.
lighted at sewing again. Maybe
this last is useful"
