HOUSEHOLD HINTS
Tf clothes arc wanted in a hurry, and they arc too dry to iron, simply dampen the ironing cloth. The steam from the ironing cloth will dampen the garment, and it will iron smoother than if damped in the ordinary way. If equal quantities of mixed spice and cocoa or cocoa and cinnamon are placed into a small tin with a perforated top and dusted over fruit cake or tea cakes before placing in the oven, you will find that the cakes will have a pleasing and unusual flavour. To crisp crackling on a leg of pork, rub a little lemon juice over it before cooking. Another way is to cut the crackling very deep and rub in finelychopped onion mixed with powdered sage and good seasonings—this gives a savoury flavouring.
