Dear Mrs. Thompson: I asked you the other day how to make a rose jar and you replied to take one-half peck rose petals and to use one handful of salt to three of petals. I did this an! it makes a brine in the bottom of the jar, and the petals are very wet. Hof shall I dry them, or have I started wrong? - CONSTANT READER. You have probably used too murh salt. It would be well to sprinkle the petals on a paper and partially dry them In the sun before curing them with the salt. Use a teaspoon of salt Xo a quart of rose petals. Dear Mrs. Thompson: (1) Can you give a good polish for white shoes".' (2) What will cure pimples and black heads? (3) Can you give me a good recipe for cold cream? (4) Whiit changeable silk dresses will be worn this summer? INQUISITIVE. (1) A different preparation is used for each: suede, kid and canvas shoes. For white suede or buckskin the prep aration comes in the form of a cako and is applied with a sponge and wa ter, and then the shoes are brushed; for white kid or canvas there are liquid preparations. You can probably obtain any of these from your shoe dealer. (2) Impure blood is usually the cause of pimples and blackheads. The best treatment is to do all you can for your general health by diet, fresh air, exercise and bathing. (3) A good cold cream recipe is the follow ing: One-half ounce spermaceti, ono ounce white wax, four ounces of almond oil, two ounces of lanoline, two ounces of cocoanut oil, one ounce tincture of benzoin and two fluid drams of rose water. It is best to make this in a small double boiler, or in a bowl in a pan of water. Melt the spermaceti and wax, ana put in the oils and lanoline, then remove from fire and turn in the benzoin and rosewater. The harder you can beat it the better, and when of good consistency put in jars. One half formula makes as much as one person would care to use. (4) Chango able silk will be in as good style for dresses this summer as any colore a silk in warm weather. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I wish to take lessons in china painting, but have no special talent for paintlnj. What would you advise me to do? DORIS. If you are artistic in colr, and painstaking in your work, there is no reason why you should not learn to paint china very nicely. One need not be an artist for this. Accuracy and neatness combined with artistic blend ing and shading of color may accom plish wonderful results on china. Take lessons of the best teacher you can and learn to paint right from the be ginning. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am greatly annoyed by my neighbors' children, a little girl and a little boy who run over to our yard the minute they see my little girl out playing. They are not children I wish to have her play with and I have to keep her Indoors more than is well for her. What would you advise me to do? TROUBLED MOTHER. As soon as the ne'.fclibors children go home after you have called your little girl into the house, let her go out to play again, and if they persist in coming, and their mother is not ob servant enough to see your purpose, tell the children, and the mother If necessary, that you wish to have your little girl play alone part of each dav. This way you may accomplish results without giving offense. It may even be necessary for you to allow your little girl to play with them for a short time once in a while, perhaps when you can be with them, so that you may not cause any feeling with your neighbor.
