A lady of prominence has sent in

the following notes for publication in the hope that they will be of interest to our readers: "I have tried various sorts of dishes for my ice-box, begin- ning with blue and white to carry out the color scheme of my kitcllen, but new I have settled down to glass. Glass looks clean and is clean, and I can see at a glance just what each dish contains. Any glass dish of unusual size which I find I seize on for my ice-box. but In general I prefer tall narrow ones, because they take up little space. Large mouthed pint fruit jars are very useful, and one can keep a surprisingly large variety of things in them. The round glass dishes that boiled tongue come in are also very convenient. In my pantry and in my sewing room I also use glass dishes. As in the case of the ice-box, the glass tells you at a glance just how much the dish contains, and usl_lally.wbat it contains also. lll the pantry, however, I have even my glass containers labelled, using the gum labels that one buys for the pur- pose.

All my blue and white spice jars

have now been replaced by the little glass jars that candy sticks come ln. As they are tall and slender. they take uplittle space, and they have tight screw tops which are much better than the loose covers of the old spice jars. For the sewing room I save small glass jars such as cold cream comes in, and in these I put buttons. hooks and eyes, snap fasteners and so forth.

I look upon my glass jars as one of

the institutions of my home, and my squares of cheesecloth are another. I couldn't keep house,-without either.‘I have the cheesecloth hemmed, not only to prevent ravelling, but because a hem inspires respect, and I use them

made into bags and are llsed to drain lettuce. One day I wanted a cloth to wrap fish in for boiling. and In order to distinguish it from the others I tied a knot in the corner. Now all my fish cloths have knots In the corners. Ascbeesecloth costs only five or BIX

ited quantity of the "rags" and they are so easy to launder that they do not seem to make any difference ill the week’s washing.

In one wants to use olive oil in con-

siderable quantities its ollincss can be disguised by mixing it with ally acid fruit juice, or pouring It over the fruit.' A spoonful of olive oil loses allits objectionable characteristics when poured over a sliced oranlio “lid adds to the flavor of the latter. With half a grapefruit one can take several tablespoonfuls without noticing it. Ol- iveoil mixed with orange Juice makes a pleasant drink, or can be used ss H salad dressing. In fact there are so many agreeable ways in wbi_ch lh0 oil-can be used that havinll bosllll i0 useit ill my family as a mediclnc. I continued it as a food. . i _Bran 'can be served in as many dll' ferent`ways as olive oil, but if yvll Want to eatbran and do not care for it in undisgufsed state just cook it with any hnsly ground breakfast ce_r- eal. -I use equal quantities of bran and cereal and my flllllly HCI-WHY likes the mixture better than cefvlll

he dress takes little space and often saves a great deal of inconvenience. The suitcase is often a good place, too, for the best dress. Heavy clothing like cloth skirts and raincoats hold a certain amount of moisture, which puts delicate frocks in good condition for wrlnkling.

In packing a trunk I often make con-

siderable use of crushed newspapers. One of the secrets of successful pack- ing, of course, is to have every little space filled, and one cannot always find enough stockings and other un. crusbable articles for this purpose. In that case I use slightly crushed news- Dapers. and find them so useful that I always put it lewin my trunk so that I will have them in case of need.

The thickness of the layer of wax

which one puts on the top of a jelly glass seems a small matter, but I have found that it makes a great deal of difference. If the layer is too thin it breaks when one tries to remove it, and it is diflicult to free the jelly froln the small pieces. lf the wax is about an eighth of an inch in thick- ness. it not only comes off without breaking, but one can easily wash it alld put it away for future use.”

GEORGIA CHOCOLATE ROLL

Two pounds sugar, cup rich milk.

two tablespoons butter, boiled togeth- er; quarter pound chocolate melted over llot water. Tcst the boiling su- gar; as soon as it creams pour in the melted chocolate. Remove from the fire, add teaspoonful vanilla and beat till somewhat ' cooled. Have the whites of two eggs beaten very stiff and into this pour the syrup slowly alld continue to heat. As it begins to cream and harden change the beating to a kneading motion, rolling the cream up from the edges toward the centre and forming lt gradually into loaf form, roll in cinnamon and pulv- erlzed sugar. Set aside for several hours, and then cut into slices or cubes, or form into balls, and roll in sugar and cinnamon. It should re- main elastic and capable of being worked into shapes, but not in the least sticky.
