Few hOusekeepers have time to blacken their
stoves every day, or even every week. Many
wash them in either clean water or dish water
This keeps them clean, but they look very
brown. After a stove has been blackened IL
can be kept looking very well for a long time by
rubbing 1t with paper every morning. II occa-
sionally lind drop of gravy or fruit Juice that
the paper will not take OFF, / rub it with a wet
cloth, but do not put on water enough to take off
the backing. find that rubbing with paper is
a much nicer way of keeping the outside of nv
teakettle, cofee-pot, and teapot bright and
clean, than the old way of washing them I'm suds
The inside of coffee-pOts and tea-pots should be
rlnsed in clear water, and never in the dish
water.
Rubbing with dry paper is also the best way
OF polishing knives and tnware after securing.
This saves wetting the knife-handles. II little
and spoons, they shine like new silver, For
polishing windows, mirrors, lamp chimneys,
ETC., / always use paper in preference to any dry
cloth. Preserves and pickles keep much better

warmer, thinner, and makes less noise when one
walks over it. A fair carpet can be made for A
room not in constant use, by pasting several
thicknesses Of newspaper on the floor, over them
coat of wall paper, and giving it coat of var
nish. In cold weather have often placed paper
between my bed quilts, knowing that two thick
nesses OF paper are as warm a quilt. If IL Is

A TIMELY LKssOx.-It is said 10 be n
difficult thing for woman to get ready TO 90
anywhere. And yet there Is nothing she disIikee
more than an intimation that she may possibly
miss the train. Brayfogle gives an fnstance Of
this. Mr.. Bray. was TO take the 10 O'Clock train
on the Bee Line to visit some relatives In an
interior town. Having suffered on previous 90
casions for injudicious suggestions, Bray.
thought that for once he would let things take
their natural course. So he slipped his coffee,
ate his eggs and toast, while Madame curled
and powdered, and danced attendance on the
looking glass, and tied bark on the back Of her
head. Then Bray. sat by the stove An hour and
read the morning paper, while Madame stiil
continued to get ready. At last, Just as he
reached the final paragraph Of reading matter,
and was beginning on the Advertisements
Madame tied her bonnet-strings under her chin,
took one long. lingering, loving look at the
image reflected in the glass, and swectly an
nounced:
"Well, my dear, I'm ready"
'.Ready for what?" asked Bray. i'm ven afKec-
ted astonishment.
"To 60 to the depot, to be sure, "said Mrs.
Brayfogie, tartly.
"ohls said Bray. ssI'd forgotten; well,
Madame" continued he, looking at his watch.
"that train has been gone thirteen minutes
Just keep on your things, and You'll be ready
tor the train to- morrow morning.
