batting and fasten a thick pad or it
on the end of a stick. With this go

the cotton as it becomes soiled, and
renewing the pad. This method is
economical and ediclent. more so than
the ordinary cloth, which‘ls too limp

A Use for Soda. ‘l
A pinch of soda- used in vegetables :
while cooking acts like magic; it
makes string beans deliciously tender;
it keeps the color of peas, and a little_
more generous pinch causes cabbage

When Dishes Stick Together.
When two glass tumblers or two
cups stick together so that there is
danger of breaking in getting them
apart, put cold water in the inner one
