Uses for Oilcloth. 
The plastered wall of my cellar-way 
began to break. I purchased some table 
oilcloth that was slightly damaged, con¬ 
sequently cheap, and using a very heavy 
paste put the cloth on the wall as I 
would paper. It has been doing duty 
15 years, and looks as well to-day as 
when it was first put on. In the kitchen, 
odcloth is pasted smoothly to wall back 
of stove and sink. When pasted it nev¬ 
er rolls or cracks as it does when 
tacked in place. These oilcloths are 
quickly and easily cleaned by adding 
ammonia, gasoline, or kerosene, to the 
water used. 
Needing a corner cupboard, I first 
pasted oilcloth to the walls of the cor¬ 
ner, then had the shelves fitted in place, 
these I covered with oilcloth, pasting it 
smoothly over the edges; the front was 
then finished with framework and door. 
The expense for my cupboard was very 
small. It is easily kept clean and always 
looks well. N. c. R. 
Five Good Soups. 
Celery Bisque.—Chop fine sufficient 
young celery tops to make half a pint, 
put them in a saucepan with a generous 
pint of cold water. Simmer slowly for 
twenty minutes, drain and press per¬ 
fectly dry. Put water back on stove (in 
double boiler if you have one), add one 
pint of milk, two level tablespoonfuls 
of butter rubbed with two of flour, a 
saltspoonful of salt; half of a saltspoon- 
ful of white pepper. Stir until thick 
and smooth. Serve at once. 
Creole Soup.—Cook three tablespoon¬ 
fuls of chopped green pepper and one 
tablespoonful minced onion in a table¬ 
spoonful of butter for five minutes. To 
this add three cupfuls of brown stock, 
one cupful of canned tomatoes and two 
tablespoon fuls of flour moistened to 
pour. Simmer twenty minutes, strain, 
season highly with salt and cayenne 
pepper. Just before serving add one 
tablespoonful of horseradish and a 
cupful of boiled macaroni cut in rings. 
German Brown Broth.—Scrape and 
cut into dice two carrots; pare and cut 
into the same shape one potato; slice 
an onion. Pour four tablespoonfuls of 
olive oil in a saucepan; add the vege¬ 
tables and shake until they are a golden 
brown. Take them out with a skimmer 
and put them in a kettle; add one quart 
of boiling water, a bay leaf, a teaspoon¬ 
ful of salt and a saltspoonful of pep¬ 
per. Simmer gently for twenty minutes. 
Press through a puree sieve, return to 
the kettle and add a teaspoonful of kit¬ 
chen bouquet. Pour into a hot tureen 
and serve at once with a dozen cheese 
balls. 
Bohemian Potato Soup.—Boil three 
potatoes with three pints of stock or 
water with teaspoon ful of salt, half a 
teaspoonful of celery salt, a shake of 
pepper. Soak one handful of dried 
mushrooms in cold water for three 
hours; pour the mushroom water into 
the potatoes, then chop the mushrooms 
and fry with two tablespoon fuls of but¬ 
ter, one tablespoon ful of chopped pars¬ 
ley and quarter-teaspoonful of salt for 
five minutes. Mash the potatoes, then 
stir in half a cupful of barley grits, 
boiled soft; add the mushrooms and 
boil five minutes longer, then serve. 
Onion Bisque.—Boil a pint of onions. 
Pour cold water, pour it off as soon as 
it boils; add cold water again, boil and 
drain. Put cold water on the third 
time, boil until tender. The changing 
of water robs the vegetable of its 
strong odor and renders it delicate. 
When the water is mostly absorbed 
add three cups of hot milk. Thicken 
with a heaping teaspoon ful of corn¬ 
starch wet in cold milk, boil three min¬ 
utes, add half a teaspoon ful salt, a bit 
of cayenne. Pass through a sieve. 
Serve very hot. In adding milk to veg- 
table soup care should be taken to boil 
it separately; add just before serving, 
that it may not curdle.

making is simple and easy

If you had a pair of rubber boots made to order, you couldn’t 
have them made any better than 
The Century Boot 
(Cold Cross Brand) 
No matter how carefully they were made, you wouldn’t secure a better wear¬ 
ing boot. CENTURY Boots arc made of finerubbei—the best rubber produced 
in the world. The vamp is made extra strong by forcing, under powerful 
hydraulic pressure, rubber into the best quality of canvas duck. To prevent 
cracking at the ankle (like ordinary boots) an extra pure gum, no-crack ankle 
reinforcement is used. 
Century Soles are made of the toughest compound known. This sole is so 
compounded and vulcanized that it will rebound when it strikes a hard sub¬ 
stance rather than chip off, as the soles of an ordinary boot would do. 
Century Boots Are Cheapest 
because best—best in material, best in workmanship, and 
best for wear. Look for the name Century and Gold Cross 
on the boot. When you want any high-grade satisfac- 
rubber boot or shoe, ask for the Gold Cross line, 
insures you quality and service. 
If you can’t secure CENTURY Boots from your 
dealer, write us and send his name, we 
will see that you are supplied.
