HANDBOOK GIVES RISE TO ALL THE VIRTUES OF BAKING SODA

Stinky dog? Upset stomach? Aching feet? Clogged drains? Help is just a handbook away in "Baking Soda: Over 500 Fabulous, Fun and Frugal Uses You've Probably Never Thought of"($6.95, Book Peddlers, Deephaven, Minn.).

Author Vicki Lansky, a contributing editor to Family Circle magazine and prolific producer of books on parenting, says the book is not underwritten by Arm & Hammer, which has a virtual lock on the baking-soda market in this country. The company takes no responsibility for tips in the book, which is due in bookstores nationwide in April. Or, if you need to shine your pearl necklace right now, call (800) 255-3379
