The little frock shown is not difficult 
to make, though its effect is quite elab¬ 
orate. The dress consists of blouse and 
skirt portions with the panel. The blouse 
is tucked and trimmed on indicated lines 
and the skirt is straight. The two are 
gathered and joined by means of a belt 
and the panel is seamed to their front 
edges, the seams being concealed, by the 
trimming. The short sleeves are slightly 
full and gathered into straight bands. 
The long sleeves are p’ain. When the 
high neck effect is wanted the panel is

Removing Bloodstains. — Everyone 
sometimes finds a blood stain on some¬ 
thing that cannot be washed. Just 
moisten a little starch and cover the 
spot. If the spot is not quite gone 
when it dries and the starch is shaken 
out try again. Do not have the starch 
too wet. It will work on the carpet, or 
your line lace handkerchief.

Tomato Toast.—Slice firm, ripe to¬ 
matoes without peeling them; season 
each slice with a pinch of salt and a 
dash of white pepper; dust with flour 
or dry bread crumbs and fry in a little 
butter until a rich brown on both sides. 
Have made ready some slices of wheat 
bread toasted and slightly moistened 
with a little hot water. Lay a slice of 
tomato on each round of toast, and keep 
hot while you make a sauce. Measure 
the fat left from cooking the tomatoes, 
and to two level teaspoon fuls add same 
amount of flour; stir smooth, then add 
one cupful fresh milk and stir and cook 
until it boils up thick as a rich cream; 
season with a sprinkle of cayenne and a 
pinch of salt and pour over the toma¬ 
toes; garnish with parsley and serve. 
Crumb Griddle Cakes.—Brown a cup¬ 
ful of bread crumbs; make a batter by 
adding to them two tablespoonfuls 
flour, a saltspoonful each of salt and 
■sugar, a teaspoonful of baking powder 
and milk enough to make a batter that 
will pour from a spoon (the exact 
quantity cannot be given, as it varies 
according to the kind and condition of 
the bread crumbs). Bake on a hot 
griddle. This batter should not be al¬ 
lowed to stand after mixing, as the 
crumbs arc less delicious if they be¬ 
come soft through soaking.

.ASK THE MAN OF THE HOUSE 
to do the washing—do it over the rub-board, if that s what you use, or with the heavy 
cumbersome wooden washing machine if you have one ; not for his regular job -that 
would be too hard for him, and not in keeping with the way he does his work. But just 
long enough to know how hard it is for you to do the washing without the best equip¬ 
ment—how much you need a 
Syracuse 
to despatch the work and save your energy. 
Why not have a wanher, and have it now, that meets all the requirements; made of galvan¬ 
ized; rust proof steel, Indestructible, clean and sanitary; no 
wooden parts to soak up and retain impurities from dirty 
suds; no mtui or motor required to run it; easy because it 
creates water force by the frictionless air pressure process? 
You will agree it’s rightly named “EASY ,s when you give it 
30 TIHALj 
and wash everything washable in the house. 
It. F. D. 9, Auburn, N. Y., March 22,1909. 
About 8 or 9 years ago I bought one of your Syracuse “EASY” 
Washers with wringer complete. 1 remember our first trial very 
well. Wife got out the other tubs and washboard to finish up 
after the washer, but when we wrung out the clothes there was 
nothing more to be done but to rinse and blue them. Since then 
we have done our washing rather than send it out, as it was 
less trouble. I am past three score years and ten, and very rheu¬ 
matic, but I do a two weeks washing in about two hours in a very 
easy manner and our clothes look much better and are not frazzled 
out and worn. It lias paid for itself many times over and has not 
cost one cent for repairs and is in perfect condition. We have a 
little room where we store it where a wooden tub would soon 
peter out with such treatment. 
I am writing this from a sense of duty. H« C. Slocum. 
No matter how disappointing other washers may have been 
try an “ EASY ” and try it now, at our expense. Ask for our free 
book. Pages 21-22 tell you how to save 1-2 the soap.

Hotbeds 
and Cold-frames 
Stronger earlier plants 
Setting out the plants 
Results so remarkable compared With single 
glass sash that gardeners double their orders. 
The present company is 18 times larger 
than When it started two years ago—solely 
because the sesh makes good. 
The light penetrates the glass raising 
the temperature of bed on coldest days to 
a good growing warmth. Practically none 
of the warmth escapes at night because 
the dry air between the two layers of 
glass is the best non-conductor there is— 
much better than mats and boards. 
Plants need light, the more of it, the 
better. Sunlight Sash lets in light all the 
time. Almost every kind of vegetable or 
flower has been grown under the Sunlight 
in all sorts of weather and temperature. 
You can get better results than ever be¬ 
fore—stronger, earlier plants. 
The Sunlight is such a big improvement that professional 
gardeners, State Agricultural Stations and Colleges of 
Agriculture everywhere use and recommend it. 
It does away entirely with the hardest work, the cover¬ 
ing and uncovering. Children can prop it open for airing. 
You can handle twice the number of Beds. 
The principle on which it is built 
Heat rays follow light rays. Two layers of glass instead 
of one and between the layers is a 6-Kinch cushion of air. 
No putty, panes are lapped and by an ingenious device 
held close to wood, cant possibly work loose. In thawing weather there is circulation enough’to 
ventilate the bed. In freezing weather everything freezes up tight and air between the two layers of 
glass becomes absolutely dry, a perfect non-conduct or. Does not have to be covered even in zero weather.
