-Some Valuable Recipes.
How to Fit a Sleeve.
The long shoulders of the moment
sometimes give n lot of trouble to the
amateur dressl1lal The correct way
to fit them Is to put the under part In
first. Tack the full portion of the
sleeves Into small plaits and make
them perfectly fll the size of the arm-
hole
The effect Is prettier if the plaits
are loosened after the bolero Is fitted ,
but If desired they can be left stitched
for a low Inches from the armhole.
1'lIero are ninny devices for obtaining
the long shoulder effect without actually .
tunlly cutting the long scam , which Is
so difficult For example , embroidery
and lace can be arranged so as to have
the points running down over the top
oC the arm , and this wtll be found very
errcctivo.

careful housekeeper of many years
says ; that Ie the objectionable articles
are washed when they are first
through being used ( , while they are yet
warm and the food which bas been
cooked In them not dried on , It is a
very easy task , and quickly done.
Then when the dishes are finished the
bugbear or ironware has vanished.

The Electric Water Faucet. rf
Some at the electric devices for i

Ity and c011\'enlenco. A little electric
heater Is shown which can be screwed
I on to any faucet and which will furnish .
nl&h a half gallon at water per minute .

'
will give a faster stream at a loWQ g
temperature , or slower stream ' at
a higher temperature. All double
piping and hot water apparatus can Ij
be eliminated by the simple adjust ;
\
ment of one at these heaters , nl sink ,

known as the "SUSIended unit" heater .

tube , connected by wire with any
lighting circuit , and which mar be

as brlqucttl , and these fuel factories i
convert n vast amount at coal dust . ' .
into forms which permit Its use for
many purposes , with entire satisfaction -
