SOME HELPING HAND
HINTS FOR THE HOME
BY MAHJON HARLAN*
v nilia nan neaas
“I never have seen a*reclpe for making
hina ball beads In the Corner, so 1 de
cided to send onq that I have used and
[hid It all light. The beads have been
much admired. I should like to get di
rections for making beads from rose pet
v*». I have a quantity of roses, which are
?oing to waste, and 1 wish to utilize them.
L have used several of the recipes in your
Corner and found them excellent. I am
making a cook book of them. This is
the formula for china ball beads: One and
Dne-half cups of china balls—not too dry.
Put into water enough to cover them. A
tomato can will answer. Boil two hours,
rinse and wash well In several waters
until all trash and skins are removed.
Cover thorn with boiling water, after re
turning them to the can, and dissolve a
teaspoon of patent dye or one tablet of
faster egg dye in half a cup of boiling
water. Then acid the balls In the can and
bml half an hour. Take out and wash in
several waters, until they will not stain
tho hands. Dry thoroughly and pour over
them a few drops of sweet oil; rub in well
and let them dry again. Heat a hatpin
or sl.aip instrument and run through each,
then string them. MRS. M. J. E.“
As I have had to tell other inquirers for
the formula for making rose heads, we
cannot afford space for a repetition of
what has appeared at least a dozen times
in our Coiner. However, the address of
i correspond*nt who makes them has been
sent to you. 1: is always a pleasure to
bo told we have been of help to readers.
It is an added pleasure to learn you 11 nd
our icopes worthy of a place in your
home n ado cook book. 1 ought to be
ashamed to confess I have no idea what
china bends are. I take it for granted
they are a vegetable production. Will not
you tell me where they grow and what
they are like?
Would Adopt a Little Girl
‘May 1 inquire through your Corner if
any one knows of a girl between the age
of 1 and 6 years who could be adopted?
I could give her a good home. We have
no little ones. 1 sent a letter to you
f^i Mrs. IT. H. C., in answer to her offer
of t.ochet and cross stitch patterns and
offered more postage if what I inclosed
was not enough. L have had no answer
from her in any way. MRS. R. M. F."
The Inquiry with regard to the little
girl is passed on with the hope you may
get her and have all the happiness in the
ielation your kindness deserves. The
crochet patterns were given away some
time ago. That is probably the reason
you had to reply to your request. The
owner was doubtless weary with returning
the same answer to a number of corre
spondents. I ask now that any one who
can supply the patterns you need will
write for your address. I hold it for thut
purpose.
Squirrels a Nuisance
“Months ago 1 wrote tot you, askeing that
you kindly inquire through the Corner how
squirrels could be kept from taking unripe
nuts from a black walnut tree. You re
plied. stating that the request would lie
printed, but as yet I have seen nothing
of It. 1 presume the inquiry lias been over
looked, and T am merely writing to recall
it to you, as I feel sure there Is some
one who can help me to do away with the
nuisance and not destroy the squirrels
with poison, which I am tempted to do.
“MRS. M.“
Had you inclosed your address In this
letter you would have heard promptly by
mall that your Inquiry was answered in
full and sent to press weeks ago. It
has, I suppose, been crowded out by a
press of other matter. I advised you to
make war upon the little thieves. It is
in keeping with their disposition and be
havior to steal and carry off unripe nuts
which are of no earthly use to them. They
rob bird's nests without mercy, suck the
eggs and kill the callow’ nestlings. They
are impudent and cruel, and a nuisance
generally. Let the gunner In your family
kill a few and frighten the rest away.
They will soon learn what the sight of the
gun means. For years T tried to domes
ticate red squirrels In my woods by the
exercise of kindness. We built houses
for them in the trees, fed them winter and
summer and protected them from their
natural enemies—cats and crows. They
repaid us by driving away song birds,
rifling the nests of all feathered things,
gnawing holes in barn lofts and cottage
attics, and in other ways that forced us
to declare a w*ar of extermination. .»e
lleve there is no other method of dealing
with them, if one would enjoy country life
and surround oneself with peaceable pets.

Recipe for Bran Bread
“A member asks for a bran broad recipe.
Here Is a Rood one that a physician gave.
I do -wish that every sufferer from consti
pation might know what relief It affords
One quart of wheat bran, two cups of
flour, one cup of molasses, two cups of
sour milk (sweet mill, may be used), one
teaspoon of salt, one teaspoon of sat
eratus. Hake one hour and a half.
"A. T."
We have had so many Inquiries for bran
bread recipes of late that we are especially
grateful for yours. I trust It will be
kept more safely than those which pre
ceded It have been.
Getting Rid of Roaches
•T have an unpleasant topic to discuss—
cockroaches! They are as olmoxtops as
spiders to mo and equally Insistent about
living under my roof. I bottled two of
their eggs (more properly nests) of the
large black variety, and hatched 20 husky
little 'beauties.1 and one of the small kind
hatched 23. These hatched In three days
after 1 took them front their mother. They
lie dormant sll winter when outside, under
rooks or rotten planks, etc. In the house,
they are not likely to emerge until the
lights are out. M,v practice Is to keep the
Infested rooms dark for about an hour
before bedtime, then, lighting up suddenly,
I surprise DO per cent of them Into stand
ing still, when they may he approached
within a few Inches. I use a thin, sort
• >
WUUU JIHUUIC. m UJT IU U1UIC9, WUH « IIIVII *
give them a light stroke when on the
walls. After they fall to the floor a ‘coup
do grace’ effect may be administered. 1
use a broom when they are higher than
the walls. They may be killed without
crushing and then swept up. I have killed
from 30 to 6<> of them in this way in a
night. Another way is to make a trap
(several are better) out of bright tin pails
with garbage In them—banana skins, po
tato peelings, etc. Use one or two quart
pails, coffee cans, etc. Place against a
rough wall up which they will climb and
drop in. but they cannot get out. Gar
bage with a smell is preferred. They also
like bran. I>o not uso deep pails, as they
see the trap. MRS. G. E. F.”
You have numerous companions in the
discomfort wrought by the ‘'unpleasant”
marauders, but you seem to have been tor
mented to an unusual degree. May I ask
If you have ever tried setting saucers
of molasses and tartar emetic in their
haunts, and strewing n mixture of borax
and rod pepper in corners and cracks?
Add these defenses to those you have de
scribed and I think you will speedily be
freed from the plague. They are loath
some creatures.
Coloring a Tan Straw
“Will some benevolent milliner tell me
if 1 can color a tan colored straw' hat
black with the common dyes used to color
cotton, etc ? T wish to take apart a nice
straw and sew It to a buckram frame.
Ought 1 to dampen the straw before sew
ing? Can black and white straw be col
ored brown by any of the dyes, or even
a brown varnish stain? Gan some one
tell me how to fix horseradish so that it
will keep for a few weeks? ANNA K.“
We have milliners and benevolent onei
among our active members. 1 turn over
your queries to them. T can answer
one question from my own scanty knowl
edge of dyes. You cannot color black
straw' or black anything else brown. 1
have had no difficulty in keeping horse
radish for weeks after grinding it Wher
mixed with plenty of sharp vinegar tf
cover it. It has kept good until used tip
Of course it was corked, except when it
use, and kept in a cool, dark place.
