V 4 Do You Know I Thire Questions a Day For the ( Housewife. 1 For what purpose butter was first used? 2, How to keep onions from srrtflline while cooking? i How to clean brass when yoi have no brass, polish? These questions will be an swrred tomorrow by the House wife. Answers to Yesterday's Questions. 1. The name currant was first applied to the small raisin used in cookery, which was named from Corinth, the city which first exported them. The currant bush and fruit were turned from the dried variety, which is really a small grape, dried like a raisin. 2. Croquettes should not be kept hot after they have been cooked, but should be allowed to cool nd then reheated by plac ing them in a hot oven with the doer open for just long enough to heat them through. This keeps them crisp. Keeping them hot makes them soggy. 3. Hang the marabou over a ran of actively boiling water. Lesve it there for half an hour, turning and shaking frequently, so that it is all thoroughly steairled. Dry in a warm place, shaking every few minutes while it is drying. , , Each of these household prob lems has been worked out by the author, who has not only taken a course in scientific housewifery and die tetics at Columbia univer sity, a-nd written and . edited women's newspaper and maga zine features for years, but is a practical housekeeper as well.

' Budgets 1 The grlatest swimmer for her years in Panama is Vivian Bernardi, aged 9 who holds records for all the different strokes. ' ) Mrs. Margaret Banks of Law renceburg, Kan., has just finished a quilt containing 1,050 pieces. The woman who would avoid the chaotic mental and financial , state that r marks the bill-paying period for many housekeepers need only to adopt a simple and practical plan of keeping her household accounts. No business, man would permit his business to be run for even a week without a careful weighing against each other of incoming and outgoing funds, yet the pome o many a good business man lianas alone without any definite plan of accounting. The homemaker will find her enthusiasm for accounting increase as she comes to see how it discloses just the pro portion of the income that goes into different items comprising the house hold expenses. When she finds that minor items are infringing on the rights of more important things, she knows exactly where to eliminate and where to increase expenditure to obtain a balanced result. The division of the family ex pense under general headings usual ly puts' food first as the most im portant single item. Shelter, which may be rent or interest on invest ment where property is owned, is next, and is capable of great varia tion when taxes and insurance and repairs must be included with it. Running expenses include heat, light, furnishings, and help. Two indis pensable items on the list are savings and .advancement, for with savings accounts and safe investments of manv kinds within reach, and with ! educational and recreational advan- tage plentiful, no family should fail to, save some portion of its income nor to spend some portion of it for advancement. Witji'a Can of Salmon ' There are many ways of serving salmon besides putting it on as it comes from the tin. Remember that it should be taken from the tin at once, and if used for croquettes, salad or other made dish it should be taken from the oil that surrounds it in the tin. Also remove any large bone and skin or fat To make a delicious salmon salad, pick -aoart the salmon meat with a "Silver fork and mix with mayonnaise dressing. The ready made sort an swers the purpose. Have ready beds of lettuce and place a generous spoonful on each bed. Garnish with a little clear mayonnaise and a sweet pickle. Jhis is delicious served with salt crackers that have been buttered and peppered and then browned in the oven. ' Tempting' croquettes are made thus: Have ready mashed potatoes and after putting the' contents' of a tin of Salmon into a mixing bowl add a like amount of mashed potatoes.
