COMBINATIONS OF RHUBARB IN ' g PRESERVING. | Dear Editor of the Social Corner: | Herewith I send a letter entitled Value of Rhubarb for Preserving. For many years I have combined rhubarb with pineapple for preserving. The result is delicibus, as many housekeepers know. Until last year, however, I had never realized the full value of rhubarb in preserving and canning. I experi- mented with many kinds of fruit and found that the addition of rhubarb made a marked improvement in flavor, Another advantage of course is the reduged expense, as the rhubarb is cheaper than almost any of the fruits with which it may be combined. With currants, gooseberries, or anything acid fruit about half and half, a little water and sugar enough to sweeten to taste, With milder fruits, such as straw- berries raspberries snd blackberries, use in about the proportion of 1-3 rhu- | barb and 2-3 of the berries. Watermeion preserves made with rhubarb are better than when lemon is used. A delicious marmalade is made of rhubarb and pumpkin as follows: Over 6 Ibs. of finely cut pumpkin and 2 Ibs. of rhubarb also finely cut, pour 5 Ibs. sugar and let it stand over night. Next day simmer slowly until of the desired consistency. It will itake most of the day. Seal in jelly tumblers or small jars. A bit of salt added to any kind of preserves, jams | or jellies is an improvement, | An Old Fruit Cake—The following. irecipe has been handed down since 1823 and is a_good seller: To 1 cup | sour cream add 1 cup brown sugar, | 1-2 cup molasses, 3 cups flour, 1 cup | raisins, 1 cup chopped walnut, spice to taste, 1 teaspoon soda in tablespoon hot water, 1-2 teaspoon salt, 1 egg. Dandelion Blossom Wine—To make you will need 1 qt. dandelion blossoms, 1 gal. boiling water, 1-2 cake yeast, 1 orange, 1 lemon, § lbs. sugar; pour boiling water over dandelions, let stand 24 hours, strain: add sugar, stir thor- oughly, warm slightly, then add veast, sliced lemon and orange. Let set from six to_eight weeks, then bottle and seal. Dandelion wine is used a great deal for kidneys. ELLA OF CANTERBURY. USEFUL MENDING RECIPES. Dear Cornerites: I am sending you a few ideas that may be useful to| ’some who read them, ! _To Write Your Name on Metal— {By this method you can write your name on rings, watches, iron, or steel ; tools, dog collars or in short any com- | mon metal. Cover the place you wish | to mark with beeswax or soap. When | | cold write your inscription in the | {wax clean to the metal with a sharp | point of some kind. Now have ready {a preparation made of one-half pound i of nitric hcid and one ounce of mu- !Fiatic acid. Apply the mixed acid | carefully with a feather, filling each letter. Let it stand from one to ten {minutes, then rub off the wax. To Mend China, Glass, Etc.—Many articles of more or less value may be |found put away in this corner and ithat about the house, which, with a {little of the right sort of cement and a deft touch of the housewife's fin- | gers, may be made quite usable, if not linost as good as new, both in ap- pearance and for service, For Mending China—Take the white of an egg and some pulverized, un- islaked lime and mix it free from lumps. This makes a strong cement; or dip a small brush into the egg | white, slightly beaten, and brush the edges to be joined. Then quickly dust |one edge with a little of the lime and |place the edges together accurately: {hold in place firmly for a couple of minutes, then set aside to dry. The work must be done with great speed. | A Transparent Glue for mending | glass is made of isinglass and spirits of wine. Put a few small pleces of the isinglass in the wine and when it is dissolved add a little water place over a moderate fire to warm and ! become well mixed. Brush the broken {edges of the glass with the mixture, put together carefully and hold or tie nto position until dry. To Mend a Wooden Article With | cement. make it by melting one ounc | of resin and one ounce of pure yello: ! wax in an iron pan, then stir in ver: thoroughly one ounce of Venetian red. Use this while hot. { Hopeful: Many thanks for the pret- 'ty card. - Silver Bell and Glenwood: What a {lovely time you must have had while | on your vacation. Now I think I know | Glenwood’s name: but perhaps I may |be wrong. Thanks for the pretty card. {It must be a very pretty place by | moonlight. Old Sol: Thanks for the two pretty ! {cards. The violets are very pret | things. Must have been misrepre- i sented to me. If so, please excuse mis- | takes, California Poppy: Thanks for the pretty Easter card, also your kind re- quest, which is granted. Aunt Abby: How are you? Have you finished your housecleaning vet?

TURDAY, MAY 2, 1914 -aze. not always suffering with that condi- months; after that every three hours during the day; every four hours at night. Second: The number of hours an infant ought to sleep ofter perplexes a mother, A well baby ought to sleep from fifteen to twenty hours out of twenty-four until three months old, from twelve to fifteen hours after that The best sleep during the day is after the bath; after this long nap, mothers can only expect during the balance of the day. After three months, the catriapping can usually be stopped and baby will take ‘two regular naps daily. In these days of advanced ideas, the infant gleeps out- of-doors during the day, if the day be fair or stormy. Some babies thrive with this treatment; others die of preumonia. know ~ that many mothers have had good results put- ting thelr babies to sleep during the {day in a well ventilated.room. Dur- | ing the warm months baby may safe- 1y eleep out-or-doors If well protected’! from the wind, dust, and flies. Al-| ways baby shculd sleep alone. This question has been decided once and for all. 3 Fourth The daily bath means a great deal In the growth of the in- | fant. This /hould be given in the! morning just before a feeding. Until he is able to sit up, it is not advisable to put baby into the tub. To handle ! him easily with no danger of falling | off the lap, spread a blanket on a table, lay baby on this; remove cloth- water and castile soap. Dry thorough- ly and dress, keeping him on the table till the clothing is all in place. Before the bath prepare a separate wash for the eves and mouth by dis- | solving one teaspoonful boric acid in ! one cup hot water. When cool, pour | half into another cup, being particu- lar to use one for eyes and one for mouth. To cleanse the mouth make a' swab by wrapping absorbent cotten | around the fore finger, dip in the| mouth solution and = clean mouth | thoroughly; using several pieces of | cotton, | To bathe eyes, use small pieces of | the absorbent cotton dipped in the eve solution. Wipe away from the nose, use a clean piece of cotton for each eye. If baby's eyes or mouth appear sore, make this solution several times a day. A good rule to follow in the matter of baby's clothing is, “keep the head | cool, the feet warm.” Like adults, | s clothing should be adjusted ac- cording to the climate. Again like adults_ baby will fret when he is too | warm or when not warm enough. All in all, baby is much like hi parents. Is this anything remarkable? The infant of fifty years ago was rocked and sung to, jiggled and jog- gled, cuddled and ~tummick-ached, The baby of today requires none of these luxuries. Mothers of today have a snap?

Our veg- etation is slow but looks good. What there is of it. Peas are up out of the ground. We are eating lettuce from the hot- I wonder if I am ahead of vou on dandelions? I had my first meal on April 15th, and they called for more, so had more the 22nd, and not very small either. Eliza Jane: I trust you arrived home | safe the other day. I did under diffi- | cuity. I enjoyed my visit immensely. And the taste of that pudding is still with me. i Iris: I asree with you in regard to moths. You know the old saying, “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” Well I have found the only sure way to keep garments from the pests, is to thoroughly brush and afr, (by this I don’'t mean to let hang out in the open until the miller has done his work), be sure the milier is not on the garment, and put away in air-tight boxes or bags. News- papers are good in several thicknesses. And you won't need any d le moth-balls or turpentine, for nothing will kill the egg after once laid. I do know the miller will not go where the moth-balls are, (at least not in my case). I have a barrel of mixed rags saved for carpet use, for several years, and I scatter the moth-balls in among them and there is no trouble. On germents the mischief is done before they are put away; and they will eat any kind and color of woolen or_fur. When I have had a room closed I have scattered the moth-balls around the edge of carpet, and behind furni- ture. The odor in the room will keep the miller out, I always try to kill every miller I see. You know, they are the tiny ones you so often see in and around the house. Great Grandma: Hubby’s wound is nearly well. He used Arnica but after la few days was obliged to use anti- phlogistine a few times, and open the wound. Accidents will happen, you know. I hope you will have a go shower of cards on your 83rd birth- day the 17th of May Crimson Rambl letter? I sent directly to you, trust I got your address all right. Joan: Did you get the card I sent you? I am afraid I got the first name wrong. x:-euxgll Serena: I wonder if I didn't see a twinkle in your eye ome time when talking about vour cookies.
