Household Notes.
If water tastes flat after boiling,
pour it from ome pitcher to anoter.
This will aerate the water and over-
come the flatnoss.
One 1ieaspoonful of lemon juice to
a quart of «water will make rice very
white and keep the grains separate
when boiling.
The ground about a plant or shrub
should be frozen to a depth of at
least two inches before winter pro-
tection is applied. :
Parsley plants, if moved to a pot or
box now, will grow all winter. They
should be placed in a sunny window
in the kitchen.
If convenient, the waffle batter may
be made the evening before it is used.
The waffles will be lighter and more
easily digested.
Those who are prone to neualzia’
and rheumatism will find' relief by
adding a little oil of turpentine to a
warm or hot bath.
If a carpet covers the whole floor,
sprinkle pieces of damp paper round
the sides of the room, then sweep
with a carpet breem. The paper will
gather the dust close to the edge of
the mop board.
Tan shoes will not stain if treated
in the following way: Melt paraffin
and coat the shoes all over. When
the wax is dry, heat a cloth and pol-
ish the shoes with it. This treatment
will not darken the leather.
To make geraniums bloom well in
winter they require. to be kept in
small pots all summer. When you
take them into the house in the fall
do not repot them. Raise the win-
dows every day for a little while if
not -too cool and do not keep them
open too long.
Silk or eiderdown quilts that have
become so +d can be cleaned by mak-
ing a stro. suds of pure white soap
shaved iutc boiling water. Add a tea-
spoonful .1 household ammonia to
every gall. n of water and let the quilt
soak for hu.li an hour in it. After
this sque. z= the dirt out. Then rinse
in tepid water, to which a handful of
salt has been added.
