Directions

1

To mend broken china bind pieces with a string and boil in milk thirty minutes or more.

2

A little ginger in doughnuts will keep them from soaking fat.

3

Press new silk with a hot iron before wearing and it will not crack.

4

A pinch of salt added to the whites of eggs will make them beat up quicker and lighter.

5

A dash of lemon juice in plain water is an excellent tooth wash. It not only removes tartar but sweetens the breath.

6

The finest of manicure-acids is made by putting a teaspoonful of lemon juice in a cupful of warm water.

7

A little lavendar upon the shelves and floor of the wardrobe, or bits of camphor gum or cedar wood or laurel are said to be excellent in keeping away moths.

8

A tablespoonful of turpentine in your boiler or in your washing machine will make your clothes much whiter.

9

Baking soda put in the water used for washing windows, mir- rors, and any kind of glass will give a nice polish.

10

Hot water is better than cold for bruises. It relieves pain quickly and by preventing congestion often keeps off the black and blue marks.

11

A tablespoonful of glycerine added to water in which a white wool sweater or shawl is to be washed will keep the garment soft and fresh as when new.

12

Kitchen and laundry soap will go further if dried well before using.

13

Rub butter on a burn immediately, and it will not blister.

14

A little olive oil put in lukewarm water with Ivory soap is very good for washing chamois gloves.

15

Old soft silk cloths make the best rags for the parlor, as they leave no lint on polished furniture.

16

One teaspoonful of ammonia to a teaspoonful of water applied with a rag will clean silver or gold jewelry.
