Household Hints
The general rules for the choosing of meat are that tho flesh should be undirnmed and not pennanetly dented by the impress of one’s finger, and that the fat should be firm.
Tho surest way of testing cooking eggs is by putting them, in a basin of cold water. The eggs that rise and float about near tho top are not fresh enough to use. Tea made with boiling milk instead of water will bo found very nourishing for invalids. Pour milk upon the leaves, allow it to stand for three minutes, and then pour off. Keep a piece of strong brown paper, folded about four times, under the door mat. This prevents grit working through and spoiling the linoleum or flooring, Grease spots on leather should be rubbed with a cloth which has been dipped in ammonia. To clean a greasy bottle, half-fill it with sawdust moistened with water, and shake well.
