Yet--every Jdousekeeper does not know how to care for them properly. . I gpsume that the housewife has been wise enough to buy a good, grade of steel for her cutlery. Only high-tempered steel will take, aud hold a sharp edge. It does hot pay to buy cheap grade of steel. Every home woman should own a carving knife of high-tempered steel, a good bread knife, and one small vegetabla knife with a thin blade and sharp point. Only vegetable knives which are made of high-grade 'steel wil give an edge sharp endugh to cut {| thin parings. : | These better knives should, of | course, be used only for the purpos> | for which they werd intended. I { have seen housewives {in a hurry, {use a high-tempered steel knife to {turn food on a griddle, hack at a meat bone, or pry off the fluted tin cover of a catsup bottle; such uses are ruinous to a good knife. Buy a cheap steel knife and keep it in your kitchen to use in" such emerg- encies--i{f you have not the proper utensils and tools for these purposaa. But whether her steel knives be of a good grade or a poor, the seif- respecting housewife keeps them un- tarnished, There are manufacturers, today, who produce an "untarnish- able' steel knife, and these are real- | ly very good; I have found that they do not tarnish, and can recommend them heartily. But few of us can restock our supply closets with this new kind of steel-bladed knife. We must continue to use the excellent knives which we have, even though | they require frequent scouring. The best way to clean a tarnished stesl blade is by rubbing it with powdered the week-end with Major and Mrs. | Lahgdon, at the 'Chateau Belvi- |dere," returned to -Montreal on 'Tuesday. : Miss Nan Heney, who was the guest of Major and Mrs. Frederick Alderson, Collingwood street, has re- turned to Ottawa.

To-morrow's HOROSCOPE By Genevieve Kemble THURSDAY, DEC. 7. . This may prove to be a day of per- plexities and disappointments, ac-| cording # \e astral government. The malefic Saturn is placed so as to promote obstacles and stubborn sttu- ations, while other baneful forces justify the presage of disturbances and, difficulties. New projects may be .considered, but financial invest- ment should be deferred. This un- favorable augury applies to business only, since social, domestic and af- tectional matters should thrive un- | der the friendly Venus rule. Those whose birthday it is have the prospect of a year of baffling and difficult situations in business unless they work wisely, but they may ex- perience pleasant and prosperous conditions In all other relationships. A child born on this day will be ac- complished, artistic, lovable and hap- py in home relationships, but may encounter some obstacles, Supply your Christmas needs through the classified advertisements. What he ir las | Christmas tags, cord, ribbons, or whatever you will use to tie up your dainty gifts, do so now, for the stock will run out, and you will have to take what you can get, not what you would like on Christmas Eve. - Thét mothers with a few minutes tinfe on their hands can make ail That if you haven't bought pour 'sorts of delightful presents for their bath brick. Chip, your bath brick with a cheap grade of steel knife, or with the sharp edge of a tin jelly- tumbler cover, until you have en- ough powder from it to clean the knife. Then take an ordinary bot- tle<cork, dip it in cold water, then dip the wet cork into the powder from the bath brick and rub it on the tarnished blade. Rinse and dry the blade. The knife-blade should be laid flat on a plece of wood when being scoured. If there are obstir- ate stains on the blade, rub these stains with a raw potato cut in half, then use the bath-brick scouring prwder. Unless a steel knife is dried per- fectly after use, or after scouring, it will rust. This 'rust" is iron oxid:, formed when the wet steel comes in contact with the air. A very high- priced steel knife can be safeguard- ed from rust, when not in use, by being covered with a thin coating of oil, such as vaseline or cottonsead oil (paraffine and tallow also may be used.) For, when the oil is put on, no air can reach the steel blade and thus rust it. Often just the moist- ure in a damp atmosphere will cause rust--although the housewife has taken every precaution to dry the steel blades thoroughly. Tomorrow--Two Good Luncheon Menus.
