! clean food in a kitchen with dirty
walls.
Never put a wall coating on a
kitchen wall that is mixed- with hot
water or that has glue in it, or sour
milk in it if mixed with cold water.
Glue walls made from horses' hoofs
colored up with cheap colorings do
not indicate good housekeeping. Tho
glue Is constantly flecking off, fall-
ing into the food and the idea of food
flavored with glue made from horses' :
hoofs is not appetizing.
Kitchen walls to be thoroughly sat-
isfactory should be alabastined the
same as every other wall In the
house. They should be coated regu-
larly in the spring and fall of each
year with a light tint.
The care of the pantry requires
constant attention. The walls should j
be brushed over every year, the j
dishes removed from the shelves |
which should bo thoroughly wiped
with hot water. If there are ant !
holes or any other insects in the pan-
tries a thick putty of tho wall coat-
ing can be made and all the ant holes,
even small mice holes can be filled
with It which will protect the pantry
from the Incursions of disagreeable
insects and mice.

Mrs. Norman II. Earndt, of.

" Ever since I was sixteen years of
age I had suffered from an organic de-

and was extremely nervous. My physi-

day a well woman, and I am telling
all my friends of nfy experience."
