HOUSEHOLD HINTS
‘To keep frosting made from ic- ing sugar soft and smooth add two or three tablespoons of honey. Honey prevents drying out be- cause it attracts moisture. Added to your cake batter it has the same effect - cakes containing honey stay fresh days longer. Re- duce the sugar of the recipe 1-4 cup, end the liquid 1 tablespoon, and a'dd 1~4 cup honey.
Vlflien sugar gets hard and lumrpy put it into the refrigerator for a few days and it will become quitc soft again.
Serve freshly-cooked vegetables covered with a cheese sauce pour ed over them. No meat will be needed. Add a beaten egg to the sauce to increase its food value still more. This makes a 200d- light meal for busy days.

HERE'S NEW WAY TO PICK COLOUR
You can try out many of the
unusual 2:11 colors for their effect upon your personal colouring be- fore you buy a dress. The Lrick is to use fabric or crepe-paper made into a colour hoop and used to en- circle your head and hook around
‘your neck.
According to an expert who uses her own trick. you can try out a strong medium or weak tone o.’ the some colour and thereby often make a. much better choice of the three.
When trying out colour. test i‘. for its effect on your skin, heir and eyes. The best colour to choose is the one which equally divides its flattery among all three features.
If you are testing a colour for evening wear, it's a good idea no try out. its becomingness under artificiil light. Some colours do a fade-out and others a‘ quick-change act under artificial light.
If you want to determine the best daytime colour that is going to be put to its severest test out of doors, do your colour-testing outside.
