Hints From Heloise

Dear Heloise: I put an address label on the spine of any book I’m loaning out. That way if the book gets put on a shelf with other books, my label stands out as a reminder of whose book it is. Cindy Weaver, Ft. Wayne, Ind.

Dear Heloise: Another use for plastic gallon milk jugs: I cut them in half and use the bottom part to store a toilet brush in the vanity under the bathroom sink. - Pam Ward, Malvern, Pa.

Dear Heloise: We had an older ice chest that didn’t keep ice very long, so we never used it.

I discovered it’s ideal as a food or picnic basket. It is great for outdoor camping. It keeps food dry and can sit out by a picnic table. The lid fits tightly and has handles. - Elaine Dyslin, Aurelia, Iowa
