STRING AND CANDLE GREASE.
Many people use candle-ends as fire-lighters, but there is always the risk of the grease melting too quickly and, running down tlfo bars of the giate or on the “tiles of the hearth, whence it is very difficult to remove. To prevent this, yet use up your candle-ends as fire-lighters, try melting them in an old tin in the oven or on the warm stove. Then dip into the melted grease short lengths of old string. When these are dried a few of them placed among the paper will light the fire very quickly. It is a good way of using up these odd lengths of string, for which there seems to .be no particular /use, but which we hate to throw away. •
