WE DO ALL KINDS OF PRINTING —EXCEPT BAD BROWN IN COLUMBIA Dr. M. W. Brown, president of 1 ■ CHRONICLE PUBLISHING CO Before cleaning the oven, place a small dish of ammonia in it and let stand for at least one-half hour before cleaning. The oven cleans more readily after this prep aration. To prevent a paint brush from dripping some of the paint while in use, attach a half of a child’s rubber ball to the handle, bringing it up to the brush where the handle meets the bristles. The half of the ball catches the dripping of the paint. When using the ladder, don’t chance its slipping. Nail some pieces of rubber to fhe ends of the step ladder and play safe. Don’t shine the bottoms of alum inum pans. A dull surface absorbs more heat than a shiny one and will help cut down your fuel bills. Pie pans and cake pans, too, should not be shiny. Place a little water in them and let stand for an hour in a hot oven. They will be better in browing cake and pie when the finish is dull. When tea kettles become coated with lime deposits, boil potatoes or carrots in it, or the peelings of these vegetables to remove the lime. ‘Punch holes only on th etop cen ter of your kitchen cleaning powder 1 can. This saves powder and also helps apply the powder to a single spot when you need it. Mix vjnegar and salt together and rub this mixture on iron skillets to help remove burned or black spots.
