When Cream is on the Turn--When the sweetness of the cream is
doubtful and there is no more on hand and it must be used, a
pinch of soda will keep it from curdling, even in hot coffee.

To Prevent Musty Teapot--When putting away a silver teapot, or
one that is not in everyday use, place a little stick across the
top underneath the cover. This will allow fresh air to get in
and prevent mustiness.

Lemon or Orange Peel for Tea Caddy--Thoroughly dry the peel
from an orange or a lemon, and place it in the tea caddy. This
will greatly improve the flavor of the tea.

Heat Lemons Before Squeezing--In using lemons, heat them
thoroughly before squeezing and you will obtain nearly double
the quantity of juice that you would if they had not been
heated.

To Keep Teakettle from Rusting--A clean oyster shell placed in
the teakettle will keep out rust.

To Clean Gas Stove Burners--Pick the holes open with a large
pin and apply a vacuum cleaner to take out the particles of
dirt.

Flour for Burning Kerosene--Wheaten flour is the best
extinguisher to throw over a fire caused by the spilling and
ignition of kerosene. This should be a matter of common
knowledge, since flour is always within convenient reach.
