HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Add any left-over cold boiled rice to the pancake mixture. It makes the pancake lighter and more digestible. Serve with honey. To lengthen a school tunic, cut it across below the armpits, and drop that portion to the waist, joining it to the yoke with a new bodice. If a piece of charcoal is placed in the pan when frying fish, the dripping will be free from any fishy taste. When baking rice, add a few drops of vanilla, and instead of nutmeg sprinkle it lightly with ground cinnamon. The legs of old pyjamas make an ideal covering for a skirt-board. Cut off one leg and slip it over the board. Then put the second one over the first and sew them at the ends. To clean suede shoes, stuff them with paper, and then clean them with turpentine. Afterwards hang shoes in a good current of air.
