This and That and Rhubarb
Hello Homemakers! Did you know:
Drinking tea out of a saucer was
considered “in good taste’ ’ in this
country a hundred years ago. Special
"cup plates” were used as receptacles
for the tea cup, while the saucer was
an use.

The salt -cellar, which superstition
decreed should always be the first ar

important place in the 16th Century

"Swapping” is an old English cus
tom which came to Canada with the
U.E.L’s. Early in the .Spring garden
ers often swap rhubarb plants, when it
comes “thinning-out” time. Later
-homemakers may "swap” the rhubarb
1
itself, for some equally palatable fruit
or vegetable. And failing that - there
is the ever-intriguing exchange of re
cipes, Rhubarb is so delicious, and
has such a tonic effect in the Spring
every homemaker should try at least
one of these budget-wise recipes.

Rhubarb Marmalade
Rhubarb for marmalade should
young and fresh. Cut it into inch
length without peeling. Weigh it. Al
low three-fourths of a pound of sugar
to every pound of rhubarb. Place the
sugar and the rhubarb in a preserving
kettle, heat it very slowly and boil
until thick and clear. Pack in clean
hot jars and seal.

Take a Tip
1, If meat, just purchased, sticks to
the paper, hold under the cold water
tap for a few minutes* and it can be
removed with ease. Meat does .not
need to be covered when kept in the
meat keeper of the electric refrigerat
or, However, if the meat keeper has
no cover, it is advisable to cover with
wax paper,
2, Here’s a point to remember in
preserving the length of life of your
aluminum utensils. Do not pour cold
water into a hot aluminum pot or ket
tle repeatedly. It is quite liable to be
come warped.
3, It’s always housecleaning time,
really. If there are a lot of oil marks
on the wallpaper, apply a paste made
of cold water and pipe clay; leave it
on over night, and when it is brushed
off in the mornipg, the oily marks
will be gone, too,
4, And here’s a hint for housewives
— do not keep greens in water in your
electric refrigerator.

DIGESTION IMPROVED
Complexion Cleared Up
Happy Woman’s Story
Everyone who is subject to any
form or indigestion should know of
this woman’s experiences. Advice
from one who has had such severe
attacks is advice worth having. She
writes:—
”1 suffered from indigestion,
gastritis and constipation, and was
so very ill, I had (on .medical
advice) to live on soda biscuits and
milk for three months. Well, a
friend advised me to take Kruschen,
and now I am pleased to say I am
greatly improved. I'can eat and
enjoy a good meal without any
painful after-effects, my skin is
clearer—in fact, quite clear—and
there is no sign of constipation, I
would advise anyone suffering the
same to take Kruschen,”
—(Mrs.) M. R. L.
The immediate effect of the
several salts in Kruschen is to
stimulate your liver and kidneys to
normal action and help to free your
system of poisonous waste matter.
Soon after you start on Kruschen
you will find that you are able to
enjoy your food without distressing
after-effects.

ing its coming into close contact with
the seed.
As illustrated in the Garden-Graph,
after the soil has been spaded deeply,
all lumps broken up, the surface raked
smooth and fine, the seeds can be
sown. To hasten germination—as the
seeds are covered with soil—place a
narrow board over the row and walk
along it. Some gardeners do not use
a board but merely firm the soil over
the seeds by walking along the ’row.
This should be followed iby a light
scratching of the surface^soil with a
rake to check evaporation.
Firming the soil over the seeds
brings them into close contact with
the moisture that surrounds each soil
particle and this starts germination.

THERE are spots before our eyes

register success early in the season.
The polka dotted frocks and blouses
usually reserved for late spring have
made their appearance even before the
start of the season. The dress shown
above is a dotted print in gray and

also has detachable white pique collar
