Ingredients

  • half cupful
  • 2 tablespoons powdered soda
  • 1 tablespoon powdered chalk
  • 1 tablespoon powdered pumice stone
  • 2 quarts of water in saucepan
  • 2 quarts of cold water
  • a piece of fine emery
  • a piece of bread into the fat
  • a small piece of paper
  • 4 better way to peel ripe tomatoes than that commonly used is to put them into

Directions

1

Never throw away the wooden skewers which come with joints from the butcher, but have them washed and kept in a kitchen drawer. They are useful in cleaning paint, to help the flannel into the niches and corners.

2

When plates or dishes are burnt after baking, they can be easily cleaned by rubbing with a damp cloth dipped in salt.

3

For burnt enamel pans , take a piece of fine emery, damp it, and rub pan well. It does not need hard rubbing, as marks come out easily. Rinse pan well in cold water.

4

If, when using lemon for flavouring , you only need half of one, put the other half on a plate and cover with a glass tumbler. This excludes the air, and prevents it from drying up or getting mouldy.

5

To keep lemons fresh and juicy, keep in a cool place in a bowl of cold water. Leave plenty room for lemons to float easily in the bowl. When boiling rice, a few drops of lemon-juice or vinegar added to the water makes rice beautifully white and helps to separate grains.

6

How to make half a ton of coals go as far as lo hundredweight . — « "Use Campbell’s coal saver. It is invaluable in a range. Keep blower in top open also, and the range clean. A dirty range means all blowers out and constant waste of heat.

7

Silver that has been used for fish should be first washed in cold water and soap before washing with hot water.

8

.4 better way to peel ripe tomatoes than that commonly used is to put them into a frying-basket, and plunge the basket for a second into boiling water to loosen the skins. This is particularly the best way when one is preparing a quantity of tomatoes, and ' wishes to keep them all firm and hard. If the boiling water is poured over them in a pan, the tomatoes at the bottom are quite sure to become soft before they are peeled.

9

Stale Bread. — Crusts or scraps of stale bread may be made into puddings, or dried and powdered for crumbs. Keep the bits (until required for use) in a clean pan or tin box kept for the purpose.

10

To remove the stains of soot from a carpet. — If soot falls on the carpet cover it thickly with dry salt. Then sweep it up quickly, and it will leave no stain.

13

Use for stale bread— Cut the bread into very thin slices, place on a baking sheet, sprinkle each slightly with salted water, and stand in the front of the lire to dry. Then place in the oven till a light golden colour and crisp. Use these for cheese instead of bis- cuits, as they are cheaper.

14

Frying .—The secret of successful frying is always to have the fat in pan at a boiling point before adding the food to be cooked. This may be proved by dropping a piece of bread into the fat, and if it is ready the bread will be browned immediately.

15

To cover jam jars. — There are various ways of doing this. Tissue paper brushed over on each side with white of egg can be used, first laying a small piece of paper, brushed over with salad oil, on the jam. Or use the ready-made parchments, which require merely to be damped with cold water, placed over the jar, and tied round with string. These are very neat and economical.

16

Fixed Stoppers. — To get these out dip a towel in hot water, and wrap round the neck. Continue doing this till the stoppers loosen. Or drop a little sweet oil on the necks, and the stopper will soon come out if placed near the fire.

17

To Clean White Marble. — Mix equal quantities of soft soap and whiting — say, a half cupful of each. To that add 1 oz. of pearl ;ash, using a stick to mix it thoroughly. Apply to the marble with a brush, as it would burn the hands. Leave it on for two days, and wash off with luke-warm water. Mrs. He WAT.

18

Hecipe for Cleaning Marble. — 2 tablespoons powdered soda, 1 tablespoon powdered chalk, 1 tablespoon powdered pumice stone. Mix the three ingredients into a paste with water, and rub the marble over with it, paying special attention to stains. Wash off with warm water and polish with dry cloth. N.B. — The washing soda, pumice stone, and chalk should be very finely powdered or ..the mixture will scratch the marble. Mrs. Baii.lie.

19

Cleaning Fluid. — Put 2 quarts of water in saucepan with ^ oz. of borax and 4 oz. of white castile soap shaved fine, stir frequently until soap and borax are dissolved, then take from fire, and add 2 quarts of cold water. When the mixture is quite cold add 1 oz. of glycerine and 1 oz. of ether. Bottle until required, keep well corked. For serge, cloth, etc., just brush thoroughly with the fluid. Lace etc., may be left a couple of days in the fluid, then rinsed and pressed. Miss Carroll.

20

To take the smell out of freshly. painted rooms. — Take a large onion, peel it, and cut it across the top, place it in a paiUof water in the centre of the room, shut the door, and the smell will be entirely gone in a very short time.
