HINTS FOR THE BUSY HOUSEWIFE

Frying Pan That Prevents Escape of Odors.

A frying pan that does not smoke and does not permit any odor to escape frmfi the pan is illustrated above. It has a handle which never gets hot. It looks just like an ordinary frying pan with a close fitting, lid. But it has an opening in the side of the pan, a small crescent shaped opening, and then inside it has an Inner wall covering the half near the opening. The Inner wall is cut low. When frying the odor arising passes over this inner wall, out. through the opening down into the flame or coals. It is a fuel saver because of the lid. It is impossible to use a lid on an ordinary frying pan. for the food will be steamed and not fried, as there is no outlet But this frying pan provides an outlet and still utilizes the beat, which must pass over the entire pan before it can escape. Household Helps. Never stir a sponge cake batter. If that is done the air is allowed to escape.

Underwear should be ironed on the right side, colored clothes on the wrong side. Coldslaw served in green pepper shells is a suggestion for a dainty luncheon addition. To keep a veil crisp dip it several times in alcohol and hang it up Indoors To dry. A fine grater is better a knife for removing the surface 6t anything that is burned Small pickles, olives and capers minced very fine are excellent season-’ ing for salad dressing. Turnips, carrots and onions should never be split, but sliced in rings, cutting across the fiber. Never soak fresh fish in water before cooking, else it will become soft and spongy and the flavor will be lost.

Codfish Balls. Put a cupful of picked fish into about a quart of cold water and let heat slowly till the fish comes to the top; then pour through fine strainer and jlrain. Cook six potatoes till done; then drain and dry off over the fire as for boiled potatoes. Put the fish in a chopping tray and chop fine, peel potatoes and put through potato rlcer on to the fish, add sprinkle of pepper and one-half teaspoonful of salt. Mix with spoon: then wet hands in cold water and shape into round, flat cakes about three-fourths inch thick. If made the day before wanted they will not break up so much in frying. Cook slices of bacon or pork in spider, then remove. Put the fishballs into the fat, fry till brown on one side, then turn and brown the other. Remove to platter and garnish with the fried bacon. Tomato Relish. Take one-half gallon each of green tomatoes and cabbage, one quart of onions, six pods of green bell peppers. Chop all fine and add one-half of a teacupful of mustard and celery seed, mixed; one teaspoonful each of ground cinnamon, allspice and ginger, one teacupful of grated horse radish and two {founds of sugar. Put in an ironstone kettle, cover with good apple vinegar and tfoil slowly until the tomatoes are tender. Bottle and seal. A fine relish for fresh or cold meats.

Chocolate Pudding. Wash one-half cupful of Irish moss and put into one quart of milk, let heat and cook till the milk thickens some. Shave one square of chocolate, add two heaping tablespoonfuls of sugar and two of water. Cook till well blended, then mix with the milk and moss. Add one-half teaspoonful of salt and strain into mold. Serve cold with sugar, cream or milk if liked.

Watercress Salad. This may be served simply with salt or with a French dressing. The addition of a few slices of sour apple is deemed an improvement by many. This is a Normandy fashion. Wash the cress very carefully, sprig by sprig, and drain. Peel, core and cut in halves two or three tart apples. Dress the cress and apples separately and combine them just before serving. Novel Cleansing Method. For silk or lisle underwear or gloves rinse in a strong solution of cream of tartar water to retain the new, creaky feeling so much desired; also light Hues may be restored from a faded condition by rinsing in cream of tartar water made very blue by ordinary laundry bluing. Umbrella Mending. To mend an umbrella take a small piece of black sticking plaster and soak ft In water until quite soft. Place this carefully Under the hole inside and let dry. This will be found to be better than darning, as it closes the hole neatly without stitches.
