FUDGE When making fudge, if a small spoonful of corns arch is added it will greatly improve both the tex ture and the flavor of the candy. LINOLEUM VARNISII To make a varnish for linoleum, melt a small amount of glue in a pint of water. Have the linoleum clean and d y. If applied with a paint brush at night it should be perfectly dry by morning. PEELING ONIONS Dip an onion for a moment in boiling water and then begin at the root and peel upwards. It will be found that this method does not affect the tear ducts of the eyes. SALT To keep salt so it can be easily shaken, from the shaker, mix one teaspoon of cornstarch with each cup of salt. This will prove effec tive even during damp wea:her. LINEN When storing linen it will not turn yellow if wrapped in Ijlue paper, or a piece of cloth that has been dipped in very strong bluing water. Or put blue enamel on the walls of the box or closet. COOKING VEGETABLES When It is desired to cook vege tables quickly, add a pinch of bi carbonate of soda to the boiling water and it will hasten the cook ing. OILCLOTH AND LINOLEUM Oilcloth or linoleum should not be washed with hot soap suds. Wash with tepid water, then wipe with a cloth dampened in equal parts of cold milk and water.

The color scheme of the exterio of a house should be chosen with the largest visible area in mind. On a one and one-and-a-half story house this is usually the roof ' On two and twc-and-a-half story houses the walls will be the larg est area for consideration. The colors chosen for lesser features are of great importance because they give character to the house. You have of en heard thai the roof of a house should be darker ttian the walls. This is net neces sarily true. It depends entirely on the effect you want to create. For FOR SI.OO OFF on any shoe in our store. Lincoln Shoe Store Lincolnton, N. C.

Proper color planning can im prove the architectural appearance of a house. A bad feature of a house can be minimized by paint , ing it the same color as the sur rounding cola with no contrast to call attention to it. By the same rule you can point up good features by contrasting them with their surroundings.
