What
Housewives Are
Glad to Know
Last Thing In Coats

I*UB lUHItfiU &VJE*£UXtU V,VA4.
cape collar, cuffs and border are trim
med with mouflon fur. This coat can
be worn fastened or open at the neck.
The garment is lined throughout with
soft silk, warmly interlined. Design
by Frauklin Simon & Co., New York
city.
Cleaning Furniture
To clean white enameled furniture
remove all dirty marks with a flannel
dipped in wood alcohol, then wash
with tepid v^iter to which has been
added a little oatmeal.
Paint or woodwork that has become
greasy should be cleaned with a cloth
dipped in turpentine, then wiped with
a cloth dipped in water to which a
little kerosene has been added.
Stains may be removed from marble
by brushing the spots with a brush
dipped in a paste composed of equal
parts of soft soap, quicklime and caus
tic soda. Leave on for several days,
wash off and dry, then polish with
soft cloths.
When a wicker chair requires clean
ing, dust it well and wash in tepid
soapsuds. Mix together equal parts of
turpentine and sweet oil and a few
drops of methylated spirits. When the
chair is quite dry rub with a cloth
moistened with the polish.
Piikled Eggs
Place in an ngate ware saucepan one
pint of vineeur and add half a tea
spoonful of whole cloves, one blade of
mace, one broken stick of cinnamon,
one teaspoonful of allspice, half a tea
spoonful of salt and a saltspoonful of
pepper. Simmer the spices and vine
gar for ten minutes. Boil four or five
eggs for twenty minutes, cool in cold
water and remove the shells.' Place
the eggs iu a fruit jar and pour the
boiling hot vinegar over them. The
eggs should stand in the spiced vine
gar for at least thirty-six hours before
using. If one or two sliced beets are
cooked with the vinegar it will impart
a delicate pink color to the eggs. Eggs
prepared by this method are very de
sirable for salads or sandwiches.
Household Helps
New enameled pans, if placed in a
pan of water and allowed to come to a
boil and then cool, will be found to
last much longer without burning or
cracking.
If milk Is heated until lukewarm,
then chilled suddenly, there will be
much more cream. The skin which
will form should be removed by strain
ing through muslin.
If copper pans are not very carefully
cleaned there is danger that they may
poison the food cooked in them.
Salt dissolved in alcohol will often
remove grease Spots from clothing.

Worth Knowing
In pressing silk spread a sheet ot
tissue paper, thin enough to be seen |
through, over the silk. The paper pro- j
tects tfce silk from the Iron and pre
vents the shiny appearance made by j
the lr»n coming in direct contact with
the silk. I
To clean a mackintosh spread it out
flat on the table and s«ub with warm
Water and yellow soap in which a lit
tle carbonate of ammonia has been
dissolved. Hinse in cold water and
hang in the air to dry. On no account
put it near the fire.
When jam has become sugary and
hard place it in the oven until the
sugar melts. Take out and put to
cool. It will taste as good as freshly
made jam.
A saturated solution of epsom salts
is a good remedy for burns. Apply as
soon as possible and keep wet con
tinually until the pain ceases.
New stockings should be washed be
fore being worn. This is done to re
move a dressing which one finds in
most new stockings. If the stocking
is worn without this dressing being re
moved the chances are very great that
a hole will result the first day.
A few minutes' relaxation each day
should be one of the housewife's rules.
Wher6 no oven thermometer is at
hand a convenient test will "be to put
a teaspoonful of flour in an earthen
dish in the oven. If this flour becomes
light brown evenly throughout in five
minutes' time the oven is right for
baking bread. If the flour scorches in
that time the oven is too hot
Winter Is the Time to
Kill Next Summer's Flies
Don't let your home become a winter
haven for flies, says tlio North Carolina
state board of health. Even the clean
home when the weather turns cold
becomes attractive to flies, and only
the greatest vigilance will keep them
out But when flies do get into the
home at the coming of cold weather
don't let them go to the ceiling and
stay there. And don't think that the
first freeze will kill them out Flies
are not dead when they lie around
stiff with cold. The next warm spell
or next spring will show yon they were
"possuming."
In case of a freeze, however, every
fly in the house should bo swept down
and burned. They should be sought
out and brought from under cover in
every room in the house, from the cel
lar to the garret. Scientists tell us
that the flies that were hatched late
and that have not completed their life
cycle are they which live in an even
temperature through the winter and
become the progenitors of our count
less millions next -summer. Conse
quently now is the time to fight next
summer's flies.
This is the time when "swatting"
flies will be really effective. But if
there are too many to "swat" trap or
poison them. Use fly paper and every
other means in order that not one may
be carried over from one season to the
next

The Professor's Experiment.
One of the government scientists at
Washington tells of a visit made by a
friend to the house of an eminent pro
fessor. Th6 professor was at the time
examining a aan: | •
brown substance
spread on paper. ;
"Will you," he
asked the visitor,
I "kindly let me
place a little of
this on your
tongue? My taste
has' become viti
ated by sampling
all sorts of ma
terials."
uertaimjv said tiie trienu,' sticking
out bis tongue.
The professor took a little of the
substance under analysis and placed it
on the other's tongue. The latter work
ed it around for fully a minute, tast
ing it much as he would a sweet
"Note any effect?" asked the pro
fessor.
"No; none."
"It doesn't paralyze or- prick your
tongue?"
"Not that I can detect"
"I thought not Now, how does it
taste?"
"Very bitter."
"Um-m! All right."
"What is it?" inquired the friend.
"I don't know. That's what I am
trying to find out Somebody has been
poisoning horses with it!" —Country

part of a ghost
and frighten John
on his way home.
"W ha' are

before him from

"I am Aula Nick," vra<. the reply.
"Come awt', man," said John, noth
