Morgan A convenience when one is cooking. is a wooden cleat, nailed to the wall just above the eooking table. A strip ot elastic may be adjusted to hold the cook book open. and here may hang Another most convenient article tor the kitchen is a box or bench on which the mopping pail may be plaeed when mapping the floor or washing paint. This bench saves one bending to the fioor, end) time the mop must be wrung out, as it is this stooping which makes the work so very tire. some. I am well aware, however, that many women even in these enlight- ened days. do not mop, but do all their ttoortg on their knees. They thus spend an hour, when the Boor could be done in halt the time. But " they would rather die than change their old rash- ioned methods, nothing can be done about it. The bench used when mop.. ping, can also be placed in the yard to elevate the clothes basket when hanging out the wash. This will save the trouble of stooping to the ground esch time to get a clean piece ot linen. KITCHEN CONVENIENCES It the kitchen is small, this takes care ot itself, but in large kitchens, it requires some study and experience to know Just where it is beat for a certain object to stand. Housekeeper there are who place the woodbox at the end of the stove farthest from the ttrebox. Five or six steps must be taken to replenish the are when, if the box stood at the other end, the wood coufd be placed in the stove without a single step. Then there are other housekeepers who bend over a stove, sink or table that ls too low for their height. The stove can be built upon blocks till it is the right height, (and a way should be devised to make I the table height satisfactory. It is s3 more dihlcult matter to remedy a low sink, but here one can put the dish. pan on a table, and wash the dishes there. in order to prevent backache. do anything to avoid bending the back at an angle. Keep a high stool in the kitchen, tor it is possible to do much more work while sitting down, than one would believe who had not tried it. Salt has hygienic as well " culin- ary use: and in as much in place in a bathroim as in a kitchen. Att tt dan- trinco sale is known to keep teeth white and sound and gums than and healthy.

Discard this part, and the turnips will not have that strong unpleasant taste. "Fame is I spotlight one minute and a bull's. eye-the next." - Babe Ruth. After-dinner coffee served in small cups is stronger than the brew serv- ed for breakfast. Three to tour table. spoons ground coffee may be used for each cup or water. Unless you use small cups, however, there need be no change in the usual proportions. 1 While the exact proportion of cor. fee to use in the making depends up. on the individual taste. two table. spoons of ground cottee to one mea- wring cup of water makes a beverage agreeable to the average person. Two- thirds of a standard meaauring cup is calculated as a. serving ot coffee. Consequently four meuuring cups ot water will make enough coitee for six servings. Another Important point in eottee. making is the necessity ot serving the mruslon as soon as aGu,' after it is made. l No matter how you make your Cot. fee - by boiling, steeping, percolat. ing or dip method - both eottee and water must be measured and the boiling, steeping or percolating atop- ped at the proper time. The drip method requires only the precaution ot keeping the beverage hot until ready to serve. which affects the tiavor ot the bever. age develops if a coffee pot is kept closed. The pot which is used only occasionally should be washed and rinsed early in the day and allowed to air thoroughly. Scald it again Just be- fore making the cotree. The kind of eottee pot you use de.. Cldes whether you want your coffee ground tine, medium or course. Always empty the coffee pot as soon as possible after using to prevent discoloration. Wash every part of it thoroughly in clean, hot, soapy water and rinse m clear, boiling water. Wipe dry with a clean tea towel and let it stand open to air. A stale odor mily taste. Today experts originate blends to please individual tastes. Renting Develops Flavor The roasting ot the coffee trerry brings out the ftavov and makes the berry brittle enough to grind. There are several different degrees of roasts --heavr or dark, light, medium. "all. an and French. As might be expected, the degree ot roasting affects the na- vor and color ot the beverage.

A lady was sitting on the terrace holding a paper before her, apparently engaged in sketching. m Miss Moberiey's account (1901) is this description: "l supposed her to have brought her own camp-stool. It seemed as though she must be mak- ing a study of the trees, for they grew close in front of her, and there seemed to be nothing else to sketch. She saw us, and when we passed close by on her left hand, she turned and looked full " us. It was not a young lace, and (though rather pret- ty) it did not attract me. She had on a shady white hat perched on a good deal ot fair hair that tluited round her forehead. Her light summer dress was arranged on her shoulders in handkerchief fashion, and there was a littTe line of green or gold near the Iedge ot the handkerchief, which show. ‘ed me that it was over, and not tuck. ed into, her bodice. which was cut low. Her dress was 1ottgorttitrted, with a good deal of tulness in the skirt.‘ which seemed short. I thought she was a tourist, but that her dress was! oldJashioned and rather unusual.

Mother Who Read Ti Me In the spring ot 1901, two thor- oughly educated and distinguished English ladies, the Misses Anne Mo.. beriey and Eleanor Jourdoin, lucces- sive principals of St. Hugh's College, Oxford, took a. stroll in the Gardens ot Versailles.
