USEFUL HINTS.
When you are making a boiled fruit pudding, try putting a good tablespoonful of mincemeat into it when you mix it. This will be found to be a great improvement and will give the pudding quite a Christmassy flavour. * * + Pickles may be kept from becoming mouldy by laying a small bag of mustard on top of the pickle jar. * * * To prevent the draining board from rotting through continual exposure
to damp, first scrub it thoroughly and, when dry, rub it all over with paraffin wax, which you can obtain at any store. Now force the wax into the pores of the wood by going over it with a warm iron. After two or three waxings you will find your board completely waterproof.
