HINTS FOR THE
BUSY HOUSEWIFE
Tea and Coffee Strainer With
Attached Drip Bowl.
Wfi
In order to patch the drip from a
strainer after tea or coffee has been
poured through it an Inventor has pro-
vided a drip bowl which may be
swung under the strainer. The strain-
er is pivoted In a pair of arms extend-
ing upward from the drip bowl. The
handle of the device is attached to the
bowl and not to the strainer, so that
when the handle is turned to one side
the strainer will maintain its normal
position, while the drip bowl is swung
out of the way. When the handle is
turned past a certain angle the arms
engage a lip formed on the strainer, so
that the strainer will also be tipped
and may be inverted to free it of the
dregs or grounds that have collected
therein.
Blackberry Cordial.
Wash the blackberries well, put In a
clean saucepan on the back of the
stove, let them heat thoroughly, stir-
ring often, but do not boll, and do not
add any water. Strain through a Jelly
bag, being careful to get every bit of
substance, leaving only the seeds In
the bag. Measure the Juice, and to
every quart add three cupfuls of sugar.
Put back on the stove, add one inch of
cinnamon stick, four cloves, one blade
of mace and one bay leaf tied in a
piece of muslin, lloll until the sirup
is thick, about thirty minutes. When
done set aside to cool.
When cold add two cupfuls of bran-
dy to every quart of sirup. Bottle and
seal tightly.

Chautauqua, N. Y.
August 23, 1910.
To whom it may concern:
Miss Bessie Lane Drake of Pi-
lot Point, Texas, studied a term
of Music and Piano-playing with
me at Chautauqua, N. Y., dur-
ing the summer.
Miss Drake showed such un-
derstanding of the principles of

a good teacher of m isic. She is
inteligent and paine.aking.
