THE EVENING REPUBLICAN, RENSSELAER, IND.

An old raincoat may be transformed into an apron for wash day. Soiled raincoats (mackintoshes) can be nicely cleaned at home thus: Spread the garment on a table and rub it with warm water and good white soap in which has been dissolved a lump of carbonate of ammonia the size of a pea; rinse in cold water: hang the air, and upon no account put'lt near the fire. To make soap jelly, so often recommended in the cleaning of delicate things, melt any good laundry soap in water ovdr a hot fire until it becomes liquid. When cold it will form a jelly, and should be molded in small jars for use at various times when re quired. It is a good idea when engaged upon delicate needlework to have a small bowl of white flour beside you and to dip the fingers in it occasionally, It assists in keeping the hands dry and the work clean. The secret of an especially delicious omelet served at a certain home came to light the other day. More yolks than whites are used and a little rich cream goes ift when it is to be plain or is to be seasoned with cheese. To remove hot water marks from Japanese trays use sweet oil. Rub it in well till all marks disappear, then polish the tray with dry flour and a soft cloth. Neglected brass may be polished with a paste of powdered bath brick and oil. Take two pieces of the brick and rub together. This makes a finer powder than if scraped with a knife.

To use up coal dust pile it carefully on a piece of paper and lay it on the fire. In this way It can be burned without smouldering the Are. Stains on flannels may be removed by applying yolk of egg and glycerin in equal quantities. Leave on this mixture for half an hour and then wash out. Instead of adding bluing to water In which lace has been rinsed try making the final rinsing in milk; it gives a lovely creamy tone to the lace. Soiled spots may be removed from white silk or satin by rubbing them with a fine flannel cloth dipped in a little alcohol or ether. —When boiling-turnips add Alltllft SU--gar to the water; it improves the flavor of the vegetables and lessens the odor in the cooking. Suet and lard are best kept In tin vessels. Salt pork, however, should be kept In glazed earthenware. A few drops of rose water added to almonds will prevent their, oiling when chopped. If kerosene is rubbed into leather hardened by water it will soften It well, i i —— Put wet brushes to dry with bristles down; this lengthens their period of usefulness; otherwise the water soaks Into the back, causing warping and cracking.—New York Sun.

Keep a sizable tin plate at hand on the kitchen -table. It will be found useful to rest the kettle on, and the kettle so placed will not mar the top of the table. When baking, let the egg-heater, the soiled spoon, or other utensile, which are to be used again, rest on the tin; this saves labor. If jam or marmalade has crystallized place It in the oven till the sugar Is dissolved or melted; then set it aside to cool. It will be perfectly smooth. In making mint sauce, add the sugar and vinegar or lemon Juice to the crushed mint, and let it stand In a warm place for an hour or so before using. Then heat or let It get cold, as preferred. Thfs will draw out the flavor of the mint well. Keep a small oil can of glycerin at hand in the kitchen. Glycerin Is a better lubricant than oil for kitchen utensils like food-choppers or egg-beaters. Some cooks brush over the top crust of plea with water and then sprinkle with granulated sugar. The pie crust then will be brown and crisp.

Take equal parts of olive oil and turpentine, ml* well together and ap ply on furniture. I use this on the best furniture and prefer it to anything I have ever used. It will give any furniture a beautiful polish, writes a contributor to Los Angeles Express.

For putting lace and scrim curtain on small brass rods or poles, separate the pole and place a'small cork in the end of the larger rod and slip curtains over, writes a contributor to Los Angeles Express. You will be surprised how much more easily the curtains slip on, and they aria not so liable to tear. ■, ■\

RECIPES.

Fruit Soup—Cherry—Use one quart sour cherries; pit and crack stones and boil In two quarts of water for ten minutes. Strain and pour over cherries. Sweeten to taste and thicken with two tablespoonfuls of cornstarch. Add a little lemon peel while boiling. Blueberry Soup—Use one quart berries; boil In two quarts of water. Sweeten to taste. Thicken with two tablespoonfuls of cornstarch, a little lemon peel, one-quarter teaspoonful butter. Serve with toast. Ginger Drops—Take three eggs, one cup of lard, one of baking molasses, one of broken sugar, one large tablespoon of ginger, one tablespoon of soda in a cup of boiling water, five cups of unsifted flour. Drop tablespoons of this mixture into a slightly greased dripping pan about three Inches apart. Recipe for Cooking Rabbit —Cut up the rabbit into desirable pieces, wash In three waters, then let it stand for at least an hour in salted water to which some red pepper has been added. When ready to cook put on in cold water, and as-the water steams drain off as one would for chicken. Fill or cover over again with cold water, adding a little ginger, which takes away the wild flavor. One should cook it thoroughly. The meat is more delicious with the thickened gravy made into a pie. Cheese Fondu —One cup of ground crackers, one cup milk, three-fourths cup cheese, two eggs, whites and yolks beaten separately light; stir all together, and bake ,in a quick oven; serve immediately.""

Cocoanut Pudding.

One egg, the weight of one egg in each of flour, butter and sugar, three ounces of cocoanut (disiccated), half a teaspoonful of baking powder and a little milk are needed for this recipe. Beat the butter and sugar to a thick cream and stir in the egg, well beaten. Mix the flour, cocoanut and baking powder'together and stir in, gradually mixing in the milk. When all the ingredients are added, beat well and add more milk until the mixture is of such a consistency that it wIU just drop from the spoon. Put the mixture into a basin and fill It two-thirds full. Cover with a greased paper and steam for about two hours If steamed, this pudding is more digestible than when boiled.

New Dishpan.

At last a man has invented a better kind of dishpan. How very long we have used either a high, round pan or a low oval one, neither of which was the shape or size of the sink. But we have now a vast improvement —namely, a square dishpan made of very heavy retinned ware. It is much more like the shape of the sink, and in addition, has the peculiar feature of a little plug at the bottom with a piece of wire netting so that the plug need only be drawn out when the dishwater needs to be changed. In this way, the water is strained and food particles prevented from going down the siifk.

Cocoanut Slice.

Four ounces of flour, two ounces of ground rice, two ounces of castor sugar, and four ounces of lard or butter are needed for this. Cream the butter and sugar together, then work in the flour and rice gradually. Mix to a paste with milk, and roll out on a piece of paper the size of the baking tin. Prick well with a fork and then spread with jam. Mix four ounces of pulverized sugar, two ounces of cocoanut and the white of an egg together and spread on top of the jam. Bake in a moderate oven till lightly browned.

Stuffed Tomato Salad.

To make this salad a half-dozen large tomatoes, a head of cabbage and a few lettuce leaves are needed. Scoop a little out of the tomatoes from the stem end, and place these, filled with curled celery, on the lettuce leaves, arranged on a flat dish, and serve with the salad dressing. To curl celery it must be cleaned and cut Into narrow strips and left In a bowl of cold water «for several hours, when it will curl up crisply. Any stuffing can be used for the tomatoes. Chopped hard-boiled egg and lettuce leaves make a pretty filling.

Cocoanut Ice.

Half a pound of desiccated cocoanut, two pounds of lump sugar, half a pint of water, and two drops of cochineal are needed for the ice. Boil the sugar and water together, then take the sauce pan off the fire, shake the cocoanut in, and boil again for a few minutes, stirring all the time (a wooden spoon suiting the purpose is best). Grease a shallow tin and pour half the mixture Into it. To the jest add two drops of cochineal and stir well In; then pour it on top of the other half.

Mixed Vegetable Salad.

Peas, string beans, young carrots and turnips, flowerettes of cauliflower, beet rpot, celery root, asparagus points may all be used in making this salad. They should be boiled separately. Then mix lightly with mayonnaise sauce, care being taken not to break th© vegetables wiien luixiiig them. Arrange a cup of lettuce leaves and place the vegetables in the center. A little mustard and cress lightly added makes a dainty garnish.

The more dollars you get together the louder they talk.
