When the lamp wick is short and the oil is burned low, put water into the lamp bowl; it will raise the oil. A tablespoonful of vinegar put into the water in which meat is boiled will make it deliciously tender.

Pocket handkerchiefs and laces can be whitened by soaking them over Itisa good idea to put a heavy Pack glass or china in hay which is The juice of a lemon added to a pan Let them stand in it for one Aminonia will remove grease stains Soak the spot and When you have no old padding for If a sugary coat is desired on lemon sift powdered sugar Roast pork should never be eaten by any one with a delicate digestion. Salmon and herring are also very hard to digest* Try rubbing the silver every day with a dry flannel rag; it will not have to be cleaned with silver polish nearly so often. There is always a cause for a flick- ering kerosene oil light. Either the top is clogged, the wick or chimney is a misfit or a draught or wind may be blowing into the room. When the eyes ache, relieve them by closing them for a few minutes. If there is a burning sensation, bathe them with hot water, to which a few drops of witch hazel has been added. A good method of cleaning black jet is to first brush it free from dust, then apply a little olive oil by means of a brush, then polish with chamois Care should be taken not to break the jet. When frying doughnuts it is a good idea to have a dish of boiling water on the stove.

Some of tHe most striking French corsets actually have vests in them. Many of ‘the conservative winter - goats are make of blue or black zibe- ine. Charmeuse or velvet skirts are the corret thing to wear with fur coats. Velvet and broadeloth are used in the same suit, but always in the same color. Black leads all other celors for the broadcloth costume for afternoons. Roman stripes in very bright colors - are in great favor for trimmings. E Raglan sleeyes and kimonos are as Inportan? as ever on one-piece gowns. Hunter’s green ang tete de negre are among the best colors for the winter. Corsages for evening gowns are. usually blouses with crossover lines edged with fur or with fichu effects. Some of the loveliest handkerchiefs possible are simply of handspun linen, edged with real valenciennes. Many women are wearing the sheathlike dresses with mermaid trains, all a glittering ‘mass of span- gles and beadwork. : Some of the Smartyst afterncon dresses are of black velvet, with trans- parent bodices of lace or net or chif- fon, or even all three. : You simply can’t have. too much color in your handkerchiefs this sea- son; greens, reds, lavenders, yellows, browns and blues are all in favor.
