To Want Something

sition, of many Omaha housewives !dur-
1 ing the -twelve months just, passed.
When we make this statement (and we

have reference to one Electric Appliance
for Better Housekeeping, and that ap
pliance is the

Vacuum
The Cleaner That Beats ?
as It Sweeps, as It Cleans r
No Vacuum Cleaner has been in greater
demand no Vacuum Cleaner has been
harder to secure and keep in stock than
has the Hoover, owing to the very great
demand for them. However, we were
extremely fortunate to secure and be
able to offer at this time
ON CONVENIENT TERMS

100 Hoover Vacuum , Cleaners
The Hoover does, more than just keep
your house clean. It lessens labor
does the cleaning better and quicker
is easy of operation, and when in regu
lar use eliminates both spring and fall
housecleaning. V 1
We want those who t have Hoovers in
their homes to tell their friends they can
get a Hoover now. A "put-feff" now may
mean a long and indefinite time before
another large number can be secured

PROPER care of fat may not
only care plumber bills for
topped up drains, but will
also be found an economical precau
tion for the thrifty housewife.
In place of lard, which "now is any
thing but inexpensive, fat may be
employed for frying fish or veget
ables. For shortening biscuits or
pastry of almost any kind or in fry-
ing doughnuts there is nothing that J
will give more satisfactory results
than roast beet drippings.
Scalloped Sweet Potatoes with
: "' Applet.
The combination of sweet pota
toes and apples prepared as follows
will prove a pleasing accession to a
roast piar dinner: Cover the bot
tom of a well greased baking dish
with one and one-fourth cupfuls pf
boiled sweet potatoes cut in one-fourth-inch
cubes and one cupful of
thinly-slicked tart apples. Sprinkle
with one-third cupful of sugar and
one-half feaspoonful of salt: dot
over with two and one-half table
spoonfuls of butter. Repeat and
bake slowly in a moderate oven one
hour. Serve with roast pork, goose
or duck.

the .fish where it belongs. But as

price grooves rounded end, wire

with age, and a well seasoned plank

Serve With Cup o' Tea
There have been some of us kwho
have been inclined td scoff at the
Britisher's fondness for his cup o'
tea, but now that " the custom of
seiving afternoon tea has been in
troduced in our own land, or, to
speak more correctly, revived, for it
used to be the fashion in grandmoth
er s day, we find that it is a delight
fully "comfy" custom, after all. and
from being a casual occurrence it is
becoming more and more the accus
tomed thing whether the unexpected
gu-st appears or whether we are just
"the family" ,
At this season of the year the
wi-e housewife makes a supply of
those marmalades that always make
the tiny hot tea biscuits melt in
one's mouth or add to the palata
bility of the dainty cracker Can
died peel is a delicious and inex
pensive sweetmeat to make use of
at this informal occasion.
The recipes that follow give the
simplest formulas for making a few
of these things. Try them and you
will find them Very delicious.
- Bitter Orange Marmalade.
(A Dundee Recipe.)
Use any desired number of small
oranges and allow one lemon for
every four oranges used. Cut the
fruit in the same manner as for the
amber marmalade and save the
seeds Let these soak in cold water
to cover over night and then let cook
for an hour the following "morning.
U?e the water drained from the
seeds in making marmalade. Al
low three pints of water for each
pound of fruit pulp.
Let the fruit and water stand for
24 hours and simmer until the peel
is very tender, generally about five
hcurs and a half. Again let stand
for 24 hours use equal proportions
of heated sugar and fruit pulp and
cook to 218 degrees Fahrenheit. It
should jelly quickly after the sugar
is added.
Candied Grapefruit and Orange Peel
Take the peel from the fruit" in
quarters, and then cut it into strips.
Soak in salted water over nightl us
ing three-quarters o a tablespoon
ful of salt to three pints of cold
water. Weigh the peel before soak
ing and allow an. equal quantity of
granulated sugar In the morning
drain, wash thoroughly, cover with
fresh cold water and simmer gently
until the peel is very tender. Let it
stand in the water in which it has
soaked over night""
Prepare the syrup from a scant
pnt of water to a pound of sugar
and 'cook for 10 minutes, then put in
thi peel and let simmer until the
peel is cleai and the sjrup almost
absorbed. Take out the pieces, roll
in granulated sugar and set on par
afiine paper to dry. Lemon peel
may te prepared in the same man
ner.
Amber Marmalade.
Select one grapefruit, one orange
and one lemon. Scrubs them well
and slice very thin, using all the
skins and removing the seeds. To
one cupful of the fruit (juice, pulp
and skin) use three cupfuls of cold
water. Let stand covered -for 24
hours; then boil for 10 minutes.
Again let stand for 24 hours: meas
ure and add one cupful of sugar for
each cupful of the fruit mixture.
Boil until it "jells" when tried on a
cold plate. This quantity makes 12
glasses. - '

"Eggs With Cheese.
For five eggs, use two tablespoons
of grated cheese and one tablespoon
of fat; salt and " pepper to taste.
Melt the, fat, add the eggs and then
the cheese i and seasoning, stirring
until thick - and smooth.
The Perfume Bottle Has
Come to Stay on y
, - Milady's Table.
ALTHOUGH it would never oc
cur to the modern maid to
take a bath in perfumery or to
be so lavish in her use of scent that
it would, permeate the walls of her
rooms' long after she had left them,
still perfumes have been essentials
of the feminine boudoir . down
through the ages, Esther, the beau
tiful Jewish queen, made hetaalf
literally as' "sweet" as possible by
bathing in myrrh, while Napoleon's
Josephine apparently exercised no
restraint in her use of musk if any
faith can be placed in the story that
only a fejw years ago workmen who
were repairing her one-time cham
bers, wet'e strongly affected by the
scent of .this odorous perfume.
Today perfumes are having a re-
"vival and as a matter of course it
follows that again the scent bottle
is coming into its own.
Some one has ventured the opin
ion that it is the retufnedbuddies"
who are responsible for this state of
affairs. Certainly one would not
have to use much imagination to
find out why this might very well be
true, after the sights and the smells
of two years of war. Whether it is
or not, th"e observer knows that
everywhere perfumes are being
looked-upon with renewed affection.
, Perfume Bottle.
There have, been many kinds pf
containers. Some have been rare and
ostly none more beautiful than
those of the 18th century. Others
have been fashioned more simple,
belonging to a period when the con
tents rather than the containers were
stressed. Variety has added spice to
these as weir as to countless other
accessories of the: boudoir and, yet
through all these changes, it has
been the salt bottles alone that have
retained for the most part any char
acteristic individuality both in the
glass itself and in the v leather or
enamel in which it was encased.
But times are changing and again
we find in vogue the most beautiful
of perfume bottles. Nothing is too
elaborate or too' expensive for the
essence of milady's selection, and as
far as the perfumers themselves are
concerned they profit thereby, since
one of the "latest" scent bottles
may incline milady toward fitting
out her dressing table anew.
The k perfume bottle may be en
cased in gold encrusted shell; or in
the skin of a shark, or in porcelain
or ,ven in ivorv set with nrecious
jewels and erasped with gold.VAnd
any color scheme that may be a par
ticular favorite of its fair owner may
be worked out with exquisite result.
When all is said, it is but to de
clare that the Renaissance of the
perfume bottle is complete, its popu

materially whether it i to hold
toilet water for the bath or one of
those essences that for reasons best
known to oneself one purchases by
the drop, the holder is ornate and
simulates if it does not possess real
value. Neither does the size of the
bottle have any bearing upon its
decorative charm; large or small, it
is sure to be ornamental.
