Eggs that have been hard boiled and sent to the table and untouched can be sliced dressed with mayon. naise. Fried eggs can be run through a food chopper, mixed with potatoes and cooked in potato balls. Poached eges should be reheated and cooked done and run through a ricer to add to salads. Boiled or fried eggs if run through a ricer and mixed with finely ehopped meat make good croquettes P the yolk of an egg is used and the white left, beat it and stir into apple sauce. A broken egg can be cov ered with water, placed in the refrig erator and will keep for several days. and is Cherry Pudding. a saucepan two tablespoon butter with two tablespoonfuls blend well together over a dd one pint of milk very and stir until boiling; pour | ever a qua ound of bread crumbs gad grated rind of one lemon, four tablespoonfuls of su one teaspoon. @ul of vani extract, quarter pound of @berries cut in halves and three well beaten e Pour into a mold well greased and edcorated with cherries at the bottom.

A delightful dessert, called orange custard, is made by taking the juice of a sweet orange and half the rind, which has been boiled until tender. After it has cooled and has been beat- | en fime in a _ mortar, tea- spoonful of brandy should be with the orange juice, half a eup or more of granulated sugar the yolks of four eggs. Into a this ; mixture is poured two cups of boiled | cream or rich milk, and the whole beaten yntil the custard is cold; then it should be poured into custard cups with a bit of preserved orange placed | on the top of eaeh cup, and served at onge or set away to cool Butter and orange juice is prepared by mixing the juice of three sweetened oranges with as many teaspoonfuls of rose water, then adding the well-beaten yolks of six eggs, the whites of four id two cupfuls of powdered sugar. e mixture should be stirred over a | slow fire iil] it thickens, then a table- | spoonful of butter should be poured inte a dessert dish and set away to | cool. VIENNOISE PUDDING IS GOOD. Dessert Dish That Should Be Served with Sweet Sauce. Put two tablespoonfuls of granulat- ed sugar into a small pan over the let it melt and beeome a rich brewn coler, but not black; allow to cool for a few minutes, then add three-quarters of a pint of milk. It will at first cause the sugar to set in a bard lump. That is quite right; merely stir it over the fire for a few minutes, and as the milk becomes hot the sugar will remeit. Mix together in a basin ounces of cleaned sultana thute tablespoonfuls of three raisins, sugar, the | grated rind and strained juice of one small lemon and five ounces of bread cut into small cubes like ordinary dice. Add the colored milk and allow to remain in a cool place for ten min- utes. Beat up two eggs and add them with one glass of home-made wine. Let soak for 15 minutes. Pour the mixture into a buttered mold. a piece of buttered paper over the top. Put the mold in the steamer for about one hour.’ Turn out and serve | with sweet sauce. Crystal Mints. Add to one pound pulverized sugar enough cold water to make a very thick paste. Wet the sugar all through, but do not have it in the or watery. Bring to a boil, taking care to stir enough to keep from burn ing. The paste thins as it heats and it can be easily stirred. Just as it = | boils take it from the fire, put in a few drops of oil of peppermint, tasting the mixture to see when the flavor is Go cautiously, as the oil is very powerful. Mix well so that the flavor goes all through the mix- ture, then chop from the end of the spoon on any hard, smooth surface—a large plate will do. The mixture should form round drops that harden at once. If the sugar becomes tod thick before you have the drops all made heat again and if absolutely necessary add a few crops of water, but be sparing of this or you will get the mixture too thin. Fresh Rolls Daily. When molding out the loaves set aside any desired quantity of the dough into the ice box. If kept per fectly cold this will remain sweet an indefinite time and can be shaped into rolls, used as basis for a sin bread. coffee cake, or in any way desired. Allow about ,/ hours in warm place for raising the dough. If rolls are desired for breakfast mold them the last thing before retiring and set them where they will not be too warm. They will be ready for the oven in the morning. In this way fresh bread stuff in a variety of kinds may be had all through the week For raisin bread add to two cups of the dough two-thirds of a cup of sugar and a cup of seeded raisins. Mix thor- oughly and let raise three hours. a Pineapple Jam. Peel and grate as many pineapples as are desired, remembering that the sugar loaf pine is best for the pur pose. Weigh and allow an equal weight of sugar. Let the sugar and pineapple heat gradually for 20 min. utes, then simmer steadily after the sirup reaches the boiling point for nearly an hour or until it becomes clear amber jelly that thickens as it cools. If extremely juicy some of the liquor may be strained from the fruit and canned separately, to be used in the punch bowl. Baste >= Instead of a ‘oration Marks. lead pencils, chalk, tracing wh mark perforations when cuiting oui a pattern, rea a basting thread through each perfora tion. Leave it a good length, knot at each end, and when pattern is re- moved puil double folds of material apart, cut thread in center, and knot ends. By this method the material is Bot disfigured, perforations are exact- ly where they should be, and only one pinning on pattern is necessary. to Chilled Cream. Inte a double boiler, beat the yolks of six eggs, add to them three ounces of grated chocolate, quarter of a pound of sugar and one pint of rich cream. Stir one way eonstantly until it thickens. Strain off tmio a large bowl. Beat half a pint of cream until very thick and add to this an ounce and a half of dissolved gelatin. Mix thie very Hghtly with the cheeolate aad cream, then pour off into a mold and put on the ice to harden. | at a cel added | and | Twist | least thin | HAVE COOL DINING-ROOM. Apartment May Be Kept Pleasant witr a Little Care. A cool dining-room is one of the greatest blessings one can possess in summer, but if one’s room is not cool On account of its location it can be kept cool with not a great deal of difficulty. Air the house thoroughly in the morning before the sun gets hot, and then close the windows to the | very bottom and pull the shades all the way down. Close the door leading into kitchen to keep the odor of the cook- ing out of the dining-room. If the | recom despite these precautions gets hot and sultry wring some cloths out | of cold water and hang them in front of the window, which you have partial- ly opened, and allow the breeze to blow through the wet cloths unti they are dried. Quickly close the win- ; dows and place a dish or pail of cold water in the middle of the room. As | Scon as the water becomes warm re- move it from the room. Even on the most sultry, muggy day | this method will seldom fail to cool | and refresh the air of the room. Add- ing a drop of two of-oil of lavender to | the water will give the room a deli- | cate, indistinct ordor and will drive | away any flies which chance te be | there. = The Home. etvnmtaninamescivemte: 8, Salt sprinkled around the drains is a simple and inexpensive disinfectant. If hooks for the bathroom, kitchen | and pantry are dipped in emamel paint | there will be no trouble from iron rust. Maple sirup which has fermented and become sour can be freshened by heating to the boiling point and add- ing a little soda. Stir thoroughly, then skim. It is said if the upper sash of a win- dow is drawn down to the sill, the low- er one pushed to within two or three inches of the top of the window, it will give a good circulation in a sleeping room, yet the draft will not be no- ticed. To clean swansdown make a warm soap lather and in this gently knead the swansdown till clear. Then rinse in fresh cold water to which a little blue has been added. Shake well }and hang in the air to dry, shaking | from time to time to make the down fluffy. Lemon Ginger Beer, This beverage should be made couple of days before using. Pour two gallons cold water over a half-dozen | lemons sliced thin, add a pound and a half sugar and a scant ounce ginger root. Let this come to a boil then add a tablespeonful cream of tartar. Strain and set in a cool place. When nearly cold, add a yeast cake dis- solved in a little lukewarm water, stir thoroughly, then set in a cool place over night. In the ning mix well and bottle, corking air tight, and lay the bottles on their sides a cool place. A small bottle of Jamaica gin ger extract may be used in place of the whole ginger, if preferred. Wash “Silk Waist. Make a strong suds of white soap borax and lukewarm water. Put in suds, let soak for 15 minutes, then Hft waist up and down and rub soiled places with hands; do not use a board Rinse in several cold waters and in the last a little borax and a piece of starch, sise of a walnut, to about a gal- lon of water; then hang up to dry When ready to iron, dampen thorough: ly, let lie for a few minutes, then iron ov wrong side with warm iron. I have treated a white china silk waist like this dozens of times and it always came out as white as new, with slight stiffness which looks like new. Curried Pork. Cut two and a half pounds of fresh pork into square pieces, fry them in a stew pan with a piece of butter. Chop four onions and fry them also, then mix them with the pork. Add one tablespoonful of curry powder, season with salt and pepper, pour in one pint of water or stock, set over the fire un- til boiling, stirring constantly. Draw to one side and simmer slowly for about three-quarters of an hour When done take out the pieces of pork, boil the gravy and about half the quantity and pour it over the meat. Serve with rice a Stringency Pudding. It is not an especial mark of econo- my to save the stale bread for pudding, and then put in an extra amount of eggs, butter, and sugar to make good. The success lies in making the | pudding cheap. Pour boiling water on a half pint of broken bread. When soft mix in any kind of fruit—stewed or fresh—and add a bit of butter and one egg. Spice and sugar to taste and bake 26 minutes. Make a sauce of the beaten white of the egg, flavored and | sweetened Improved Shortcake, A great improvement on strawberry shortcake is made by adding three sliced bananas to two boxes of the ber- ries when preparing them for the cake. This brings out all the delicate flavor of the berry and imparts a most delicious flavor to the whole cake. Bleach Grass Stains. A good way to remove grass stains is to spread butter on them and lay the article in the hot sunshine. Cold water, a tablespoonful of am- monia, and soap’ will take out machine grease where other means would not the; it | answer on account of the color run-| t225 rid. c rev?

The tender leaves of young beet | tops or turnips may be used instead of spinach and make a _ pleasant change for the lover of greens. Thoroughly wash leaves to remove grit and boi] until tender. Drain, press out the water and dress with butter, salt and pepper, stirring in a saucepan until thoroughly heated. The flavor is much improved if a Uittle vinegar and oil are added om the table. This is better than serving it with the greens as many persons pre- fer the butter dressing. Porch Chair. Mend your porch chairs with picture wire. It is easy to work with and strong. Lace across the seat and baek to make a straight sufrace. Paint with enamel or carriage paint. Make eovers to suit. I use burlap or dinim and fill with excelsior. If they’get wet they soon dry out and no harm is done. Destroy Moths. If you suspect that there are moths in your carpets, try and locate their hiding place. Wring a coarse cloth out of clean water and spread it smooth on the spot in the carpet where you think the moths are. Iron the wet cloth with a hot iron. The steam will kill the moths and eggs.
