The Farmers Union Advocate. HP HOUSEHOLD NOTES. When cooking onions, set a tin cup of vinegar on, the stove, and lot it boil and no disagreeable odour will be noticed in the room. Very bad greaso snots can be removed by soaking them in benzine and then placing them between double layers of blotting-paper and pressing with a medium hot iron. Olive oil is am excellent fattener. Some can take a tablespoonful after meals easily. It stimulates and makes active the digestive organs, clears the complexion, ar>d makes tho eyes bright and sparkling. A good way to clean brown boots when they have gone a dirty, almost black, colour, is to rub well with a piece of soft cloth dipped in ben-' zine. This will have the effect of making them almost tlieir original colour. To fix a hat firmly on the head' amd to prevent it wobbling, take an old veil, fold it into several thicknesses till it is about four inches in length, pin it across the top of the head with a hairpin at each end, and you will be suprised what a grip there is for the hatpins, and how firmly you can fix the hat. A very pretty pink colouring for kitchen or pantry walls'can be obtained _by dissolving whiting (not lime) in water, then add enough pormaganate of potash, diluted, to give it the desirable shade. Put it on with a common whitewash brush. It looks really well and has the advantage of being both cheap and healthful.
