Stains on wooden tables, caused by hot dishes having been placed thereupon should be rubbed with a cloth dipped into a mixture of equal parts of kerosene and methylated spirits. Follow up the process by polishing with beeswax and turpentine. It is usually difficult to measure out accurate quantities of honey when cooking, as it sticks badly to the spoon. The simplest and quickest way to avoid this is to dip the spoon for a second in boiling water before using it for measuring purposes. Use at once and the honey will run from the spoon. Repeat the process, keeping the spoon very hot, until the accurate measure is obtained.
