After washing cream serge, put
two tablespoonsful of powdered borax
in half a pail of cold water and steep
the serge in it for 15 minutes. Then
rinse and dry.
Whole wheat cooked overnight in
a double-boileris a delicious breakfast
cereal, but to be perfect it should
have half a cupful of rich milk stir-
red into it before serving.
Fruit buns are excellent for chil-
dren’s lunches. Make dough as for
rusks, then stir in as many currants
and seeded raisins as the dough will
hold, add a dash of cinnamon and
nutmeg, raise and bake.
A novel currant jelly sauce is made
by separating a tumbler of currant
jelly into small pieces. Add one and
one-half tablespoonsful of chopped
fresh mint leaves and tiny shavings
from the rind of a quarter orange.

Burning accidents would be com-
paratively rare if mothers would have :
alum put in the last rinsing water for *
children’s pinafores, nightgowns, etc. , .
when these articles are washed. Two:
ounces of alum to each gallon of
water is the right proportion to make
the garment non-inflammable, and it
should always be used for garments
made of the common flannelette, for:
otherwise this is so likely to catch
fire that the wearer of it is in danger
of being burned to death. Fires are
often caused by muslin curtains being:
blown by the wind against lighted
candles or gas, so it is wise also to-
rinse such draperies in alum water.
The stock pot is the mainspring of
