A USEFUL ARTICLE Ammonia, or as it IS
generally called, spirits of hartshOrn, IS a
powerful alkali, and dissolves grease and dirt
with great ease 1t has lately been recon-
mended very highly for domestic purposes.
For washing paint, put tablespoonful IN
quart of moderately hot water, dip IN hannel
cloth and then wipe off the woodwork no
scrubbing will be necessary. For taking
greasy spots from any fabric use the ammonia
nearly pure, then lay white blotting paper over
the spot and iron it lightly. In washing lace
nut about twelve drops in a pint OF warm sudS.
To clean silver mix two teaspOOnfuS OF ammo
MIA in quart of hot suds; put in your silver
ware and wash, using an old nail-brush or
tooth brush for the purpose. For cleaning
hair brushes &C., simply shake the brushes up
and down in a mixture of one tablespoonful OF
ammonia to one pint of hot water; when they
are cleansed, rinse them in cCld water, and
stand them in the wind or in hot place to
! dry. For washing finger marks from looking
! glasses or windows put few drops of ammo
MA on a moist rag and make quick work OF IT
If YOU wish your house plants to flourish, put
few drops of the spirits in every pint or waite
used in watering A teasp0ontul Will ADD
much to the the refreshing effects OF the bath
Nothing is better than ammonia water TO
cleansing the hair. La every case rinse on thu
ammonia with clear water. 10 which w
would only add, that, for removing greas
spots mixture of equal parts OF ammonia ant
alcohol is better than alcohol alone and 10
taking out the red stains produced 6y tn
strong acids in blue and black clothes there l
nothing better tnan ammonia.

Johnny's Opinion of Grandma.

GrendmOthers are very nice folks
They beat all the aunts in creation,
They let chap do as he likes,
And don't worry about education.
I'm sure cant see it all,
What poor fellow ever could do
For apples, and pennies, and cakes,
Without grandmother or two.
Grandmothers speak softly TO q" mas
To let boy have a good time;
Sometimes they will whisper, it's true
Tother way, when boy wants to climb
Grandmothers have mullins for tea,
And pies. a whole row in the cellar,
And they're apt ut they know it IN time)
To make chicken pie for " ieller.'
And if he is bad now and .hen,
And makes a great racketing noise'
They only look over their Specs
And say, "Ah these boys WILDE boys
"Lite is only so short at best
Let the children be happy to-day;
Then they look for awhile at the sky
And the hills that are tar, far away.
Quite often, as twilight come on,
Grandmothers sing hymns, very low
To themselves as they rock by the fire.
About Heaven, and when they shall 90.
And then, a boy stopping to think,
will find hot tear in his eye,
To know what will come at the last,
For grandmothers all have to die.
Iwish they could stay here and pray
For boy needs their prayers evry night;
Snue!boys more than others. s'pose;
