: Household Hints. i
POLISH IN G-cloths, such as jewelers
use, are warranted to keep silver in
brilliant condition without the disadvanta
ges of a period’ctl upheaval of the plate
closet. Thev prevent, moreover, thescratch
i g which the app ication of powders to the
metal usually produces. To make them,
boil soft cloths in a mixture of fresh milk
and hartshorn-powder, an ounce of the
powder being used to a pint of the milk.
When they have boiled for five minutes
they should be hastily passed through
cold water, so that they will be cool
enough to wring out and dry before the
fire. After the silver is washed and dried
each day, it should be polished with a
cloth prepared in this manner.
Sandpaper will whiten ivory-handled
knives which have become yellow from
age or usage.
Table linens should be looked over care
fully before going to the laundry, and all
stains well washed in a strong solution of
borax. This will remove all spo’s and
stamp, which if wet first will be difficult to
remove.
To get rid of black ants, procure whale
oil soap from the drug store, dissolve it in
water, making a very strong suds, and
saturate the places infected by them. If
the fir.-1 application does not destroy them,
try again. Find their haunts, dig up the
earth, a : d pour on the solution. The
s< ap c-nnes in bulk, like soft soap. * and is
not expensive.
The best way to make a child good is to
expect good things from him. Too much
censure convinces a child that it is of no
use to try to be good. Give children de- '
served praise, but never flatter them —be- ;
ing especially careful as to comments on
personal appearance, lest they become
conceited. Take'care as to your example,
parents.
Learn to do the most important, things 1
first, and if your strength ebbs, learn to
let the minor things wait. Sing inspir
ing songs. Try to get something out of
life for all you put into it; enjoy some
thing to-day, for to-morrow may not be
yours. People ought to get more than an ’
existence with such help as song and sun
shine, laughter and friendship.
To remove ink stains from white cloth, '
peroxide of hydrogen should be poured
over the spot and then rinsed out with ;
water. Fresh, new milk will often accom
plish the same purpose. An application 1
of lemon juice will remove the stains if
followed by a thorough sprinkling with
salt.
Fresh meat should not be allowed to re
main wrapped in pa ier, for the paper will
absorb the juices. Remove the paper and
lay the meat on an earthen plate.
In cleaning a stove, if a little soap is
used it will lighten the labor. Wet a
flannel cloth and rub it over a piece of 1
s >ap, then dip the cloth into the stove
polish and rub over the stove; finish with
a dry cloth or brush. It is said the polish
will last much longer than if it was used
without the soap.
Fruit stains may usually be removed by (
pouring boiling water through the stain,
but if this fails, add oxalic acid, dissolving
three ounces in a pint of water. Soak the
stain in this solution for five minutes, and
then steam it by holding it over a kettle
c < boiling water, or hang in the sunshine.
Rinse in ammonia when the stain disap
pears, so the acid will be counteracted.
Rinse again thoroughly, so the fabric will
not be injured. JAvelle water is recom
mended tor washing white goods.
To perfume your gloves, nrix half an
ounce of essence of roses, a drachm each
of oil of cloves and mace, and a quarter of
an ounce of frankincense; put the mixture
in tissue paper between the gl< ves, and
place a heavy weight on them. Leave the
gloves under the weight for a day or two,
until they are permeated with the fra
grance. Tis said the perfume wll cling
to the gloves until they are worn cut.
Benares brass, which is so handsome
and expensive, is not an easy thing to
clean. The best cleanser is lemon juice;
that is, a halved lemon from which the
juice has been presred out for cooking
purposes, dipped in very line bath brick
(sifted) and then rubbed on. This is what
is used in India. A good deal of the
Benares brass in this country has been
lacquered, and in that case a little soap

and water and a good rub with a piece
chamois leather is the best cleansing
process.
Cleanliness, fresh a ; r and sunshine are
the best purifiers and disinfectants of
houses.
Several newspapers laid one upon the
other, then covered with a sheet of thick
brown paper, and stitched together near
the edge, make an excellent mat to lay
upon a hard-wood fi mr in front of the sink
or range in a kitchen, and will save the
cook a great deal of work. When soiled
this mat may be thrown aside and easily
replaced by a fresh one.
The ideal home is always a restful one,
the centre from which the various mem
bers of a family mav draw strength and
inspiration which fits them for contact
with the great world outside.
To do the duty nearest, simple and nat
ural as it may seem, is really the most
difficult thing in life. Toeven see it is
difficult. Ido not know what it is in
man that always makes him enamoured
of the distant thing. It is always to-mor
row and to-morrow. To-day we will
dream and plan and postpone; to-morrow
we will act; and so life gets to be a snarl
of neglected yesterdays, a deceiving show
of promised to-morrows, nothing really
accomplished.
When you suspect that what you are
cooking has been scorched because you
have neglected it for just cne moment too
] on g> quickly lift the vessel holding the
food from the fire and place it in a pan of
water for a few minutes. In almost every
case the scorched taste will entirely dis
appear.
Fresh stains upon wall paper where
people have rested their heads can be re
moved by covering the spot with a mix
ture of pipeclay and water made into a
soft paste and letting it remain over night.
Then brush it off with a stifl whisk
broom.
A very easy method of affording a
change for a busy housekeeper is, when
making a layer cake, to cut the layers in
two partsand use two varieties of filling.
The result is two half cakes of different
varieties. This methed affords the change
mentioned, and most easily caters to the
critical tastes of the members of a house
hold. Chocolate and cocoanut, banana
and jelly—any of these may be combined
in this manner and thus two kinds of cake
are provided.
It requires an exceptionally wise, judi
cious person to knew where to eco iomize
and where to spend. The woman who
laboriously darris a gingham apron when
she can make a new one in half the time,
and when the material costs so little, is
decidedly wasting her efforts or es'imat
ing her time at a low standard. The
mended apron will not wear one-fourth so
long as a new one, and it had better be
devoted to dust cloths or to some of the
purprses of cleaning where a soft, old rag
is required.
An English hygienist of repute says
that a large proportion oi the ills which
afflict men past the middle of life are due
to errors in diet, chieriy in the direction of
excess in quantity.
