Proper Adjustment of Furniture Cur tains Easy Way to Move Mat tresses Easy Method of Ren. ovatlng Worn Gas Mantles. For Heavy Mattress. To carry a heavy mattress on the porch to air, take the straps of old suspenders and put one loop on each side. Two people can then handle it with ease. Dandelion Wine.

Don't hesitate to launder the curtains on your home made furniture for lack of time to re place broken drawstrings. Make cur-, tains In the usual way, finish top edge with one-half-inch band or beading, as one prefers. If with beading, stay un derneath with one-half-inch strip. Sew hooks firmly at back edge of band five or six inches apart, so that point of hook comes within one-quarter inch of top edge of band. Then with two small tacks to each eye tack them on the piece of furniture same distance apart as hooks on curtain. Now hook your curtain on. Easy to remove or ad just Clothesline Moves Mattresses. In cleaning house one of the hardest tasks is moving the cumbersome mat tresses, not so much because of their weight, but on account of the difficulty in getting hold of the unwieldy things. Just try roping them with a clothes line and see how it simplifies matters. Put a rope around, bookstrap fashion, knotting in such a way that you have rope handles to get hold of, and then see how easily the mattress can be moved. ', ' - For Gas Users. When a gas mantle begins to turn black, Bprinkle a little salt on It with a salt shaker and light, nnd the black part will burnoff and become white again. If the mantle has become too black it will be neces sary to lift it off carefully and re move the black from stem of burner, replace mantle, douse on a little salt and it will come out pure white again. Iodine Stains. To remove iodine from any material, soak the spot in sweet milk for several hours, then lay it In the sun. Repeat this until spot disappears. Circles left by the milk easily can be removed by washing in warm water and some good soap. The Pineapple, j This delicacy would be ' prepared more often if it were less tedious to pare, core and slice. Few use sliced pineapple these days, since the food chopper has been brought into so much use and makes this rather coarse-fibered fruit more palatable. Use a sharp bread knife to cut the pineapple in quarters. Pare each sec tion and remove the eyes and bits ot hull with a penknife. Really nothing takes the place of a sharp penknife for the purpose, not even the latest improved pineapple knife, for it takes out too large pieces. Next cut the quarters into small sections and run them ihrough the food chopper and add sugar immediately to extract Juice. Unless a pineapple is prepared early in the day it will be almost as Insipid for dinner as a winter pear, the most tasteless fruit there is. To Restore Flannels. Dissolve by the aid of heat, 40 parts of white castile soap, shaved fine, in 1,200 parts of soft water, and to the solution when cold, gradually add, un der constant stirring, one part of the strongest water of ammonia. Soak the goods in this solution for two hours, then let them be washed as usual for fine flannels, and those that have lost their whiteness will be en tirely restored. French Land & Irrigation Co.
