Elm Street McHenry, Illinois, 60050 A. Silver polish, applied with a damp cloth, usually works fine. Many other such helpful household hints are contained in my manual. Q. How can I remove shine from wool clothes? A. Rub with a press cloth ^moistened with" a m;ld vinegar solution, to raise the nap, then again moisten the cloth and use it as a regular ironing cloth for pressing. Q. How can I insure equalsized hamburgers wVen I am preparing the meat? A. By measuring your meat out with an ice cream scoop. Q. Do you recommend cleaning fluid for white felt hats? A. Not too heartily, since this could turn the hats yellow in time. Instead, mix equal parts of cornmeal, salt, and flour, and rub this into the felt. Letremaih overnight, then brush out thoroughly. Or, make a paste of plaster, of paris and benzene, rub on the hat, and let dry before brushing. Q. H)w ean I rejuvenate wiltpd leaf vegetables, such as lettuce, spinach, and parsley? . A. By soaking in colcl water to <viiich a slice of lemon has been added. In an hour or so, they should be a? fresh as. when gathered. Q. How can I relieve tired and aching feet;? A. Boric acid in a foot bath will not only relieve tired, perspiring feet, but will also remove any unpleasant odor. Q. How can I make a filler for repairing cracks in a pair of old wooden wagon wheels I am erecting as a yard decoration? A. Mix flour with ei.ough brown shellac to make a paste, rub this on the wood, and after it has dried completely, sandpaper the surface and then rub with a soft cloth that has been dampened with a little oil and thin shellac. Q. What have you to say about the idea of soaking clothes before laundering them? A. Don't soak them so long. that the dirt is distributed through the fabrics. If soaking overnight, be sure the sudsy water is cold, or your clothes will take on a poor color. Q. What do you especially recommend for washing windows? A. I like a mixture of water and ammonia. This does a fine job of cutting grease, dries quickly, and leaves a nice,gloss on the glass. - Q. How can I improve the appearance, of scuffed brown shoes? A. By putting iodine on these shoes before applying shoe polish. This will keep them looking polished for quite a long time.
