When cleaning fish the blood

when cooked.

A faint garlic flavor will give
roast lamb an indefinable taste at
traction that will make guests ask
for seconds. Cut garlic into small
pieces and insert them in slits
made in the roast before you
cook it. Four pieces of garlic

If you have a modern styled
kitchen choose curtains of plain
colored chintz or crash. Decorate
each with three half-inch bands of
bias tape sewed on the top and
bottom. Use a color that accents
the scheme of the kitchen. Sew
ivory colored bone rings on each
curtain and run them on a curtain
rod.

Don’t use substitutes for fuses
when a fuse blows out. Fuses are
safety devices to prevent overload
ing of wires and fixtures, and to
signal when something is wrong.
No makeshift gives the same pro

safer to stand on a dry board,
chair, etc., rather than on a damp
cellar floor or on the ground.
