The Rural Patterns. 
The corset cover shown is made with 
fronts and back and circular basque 
portions. The back is tucked, but the 
fronts are plain and gathered at the 
waist line, where they are finished with 
circular basque portions. Over each are 
arranged three circular frills that give 
becoming fullness and that meet at the 
center where the closing is made. Neck 
and arm’s-eye edges are finished with 
beading threaded with ribbon. The 
quantity of material required for the 
medium size is iy 2 yard 36 inches wide 
with 2 y 2 yards of beading and 8 y 2 yards 
of lace to trim as illustrated. The pat¬ 
tern No. 4636 is cut in sizes for a 32, 34, 
36, 38 and 40-inch bust measure; price 
10 cents from this office. 
The sectional petticoat shown is used 
for economy in laundering as several 
washable flounces can be used with one 
skirt, or the same upper portion can be 
used with flounces either walking 
length or with train. The petticoat con¬ 
sists of skirt, flounce and band. The 
skirt is cut in five gores and is without 
fullness at the back. The placket is 
made at the left front seam and the up- 
22 to 34 waist. 
per edge can be finished with a belt or 
cut in dip outline and under-faced as 
preferred. Both the band and the 
flounce are circular, the former slightly, 
the latter generously, and at the edge 
of the flounce is a narrow gathered frill. 
The quantity of material required for 
the medium size is for skirt 2*4 yards 
21 inches wide or 1 y 2 yard 36 inches 
wide; for flounce and band, 6 y 2 yards 
21 inches wide, or 3% yards 36 inches 
wide. The pattern No. 4635 is cut in 
sizes for a 22, 24, 26, 28, '30, 32 and 34- 
inch waist measure; price 10 cents. 
How Did You Build Your Sink ? 
The following question is from a 
Michigan reader. It is a matter of vital 
importance to the comfort of the home, 
and we would like any information on 
the subject that our friends can send us. 
This has been a test Winter, which will 
show r the efficiency of a sink drain. Cost 
of putting in and difficulties encoun¬ 
tered will add to the value of a descrip¬ 
tion: 
I should like to hear from The R. N.-T. 
readers who have a convenient kitchen 
with sink for washing dishes and one for 
hands, with drain to carry off the water 
to a cesspool that cannot freeze in Winter, 
and can be cleaned out when needed. How 
was it built? Suggestions are also asked 
for convenient cupboards and kitchen that 
will save steps for a woman who has hired 
men to cook for.

To Clean Flatirons. —Pour a little 
coal oil on an old newspaper and rub 
the hot iron over it until it is perfectly 
free from rust, smoke or other foreign 
substances; then wipe the tops and 
sides of the irons thoroughly and your 
work will be changed from drudgery to 
a pleasure. leak n. kettering. 
A Good Way to Cook Apples. —But¬ 
ter a deep tin pan, cover the bottom 
with a layer of pared and quartered ap¬ 
ples. In another dish beat an egg well, 
put in enough sugar to sweeten the ap¬ 
ples, add a little water, thicken with 
powdered bread crumbs, flavor highly 
with lemon. Pour this mixture over ap¬ 
ples and bake until the appies are done, 
which will take about 20 minutes in a 
hot oven. MRS. h. l. m.

German Honey Cakes. —Eight cup¬ 
fuls sugar, two cupfuls honey, four cup¬ 
fuls milk, one pound almonds, one 
pound English walnuts, three cents’ 
worth each of candied lemon and orange 
peel, five cents’ worth citron, cut fine, 
two large tablespoon fills soda, two tea¬ 
spoonfuls ground cloves, two teaspoon¬ 
fuls ground cinnamon. Put the milk, 
sugar and honey on the stove to boil 15 
minutes, skim off the scum and. remove 
from the stove. Put in the nuts, spices 
and candied fruits. Stir in as much 
flour as can be done with a spoon. Set 
away to cool, then mix in the soda. 
Cover and let stand over night, or a few 
days if possible. Then stir in enough 
flour to make a stiff dough, roll out a 
little thicker than for ordinary cookies 
and cut in fancy shapes. Will keep for 
months; in fact, they are not good until 
they have been made a few weeks at 
least. MABEL PEELE.

Crimson Rambler 
"Philadelphia” 
Pronounced by experts to be “the most mag¬ 
nificent Crimson Climbing Kose in existence.’’ 
It is u, descendant of the Old Crimson Kambler, 
but far finer and better in every way. 
The plants arc hardy as oaks and will grow 
10 to 15 feet in a season. A prodigious bloomer, 
often 15,000 to 20,000 blossoms on a single plant 
by actual count. The effect is dazzling and 
beautiful beyond description. 
For making Rose arbors, screens or hedges 
“Philadelphia” is unsurpassed. For training 
up the side of a porch it Is “ideal.” We are the 
introducers of this beautiful rose, and now have 
splendid plants in all sizes.
