USEFUL HINTS
FOR THE HOUSEWIFE. When petersham belting gets limp, rub thickly with soap on the side facing the skirt, then iron with a hot iron. A simple way to sterilise a bottle for fruit is to place a funnel on its broad end in a saucepan, of boiling water. As the steam rises through ,the funnel “spout” hold the bottle over it. There is nothing better than an old shaving brush, with the bristles cut fairly short, for applying white cleaner to shoes. To clean a grater to which food fragments are adhering, put it into a heated oven when opportunity offers. The dried fragments may then be brushed off.
