WEARING FLANNEL.-Put it on at
once. Winter or summer, nothing bet
ter can be worn next the skin than
loose, red, WOODEN flannel shirt
"loose," for it has room to move on
the skin, thus causing Utilization
which draws the blood to the surface
and keeps it there; and. when that is
the case, no one can take o cold; "red,"
for willie flannel fulls up mats together
and becomes tight, stiff. heavy and ina
pervious; woolen," the product of a
sheep and not Of gentl man of color,
not of cotton wool. because that merely
-absorbs the moisture from the surface,
while WOODEN flannel conveys it from
the skin and deposits il in drops on the
outside of the shirt, from which the
ordinary cotton shirt ab,orbs it, and,
by its nearer expo ure to the exterior
air, it is soon dried without injury to
the body. Having these properties,
red wooden flannel is worn by sailors
even in the midsummer of the hottest
countries. Wear thinner material in
summer.-HaFs Journal Of Health.
DIRECTIONS FOR WASHING WooLENs.
If you do not wish to have white fan
nels shrink when washed, make good
suds of hard soap and wash the fan
nels in it, without rubbing any soap on
them; rub them out in another suds.
then wiring them out of it, and put
them in a clean tub, and turn on suffi-
cient boiling water to cover them, and
let them remain till the water is cold.
A little indigo in the boiling water
makes the fannels look nicer. II you
wish to have your white flannels shrink,
SO as to have them thick, wash them in
soft soap suds and rinse them in cold
water. Colored woolens that incline
to fade should be washed with besf's
gall and warm water before they are
put in the soap suds.
DURABLE INK FOR MARKING LINEN.
Dissolve couple of drschms of lunar
caustic and half an ounce of gum ara.
bic in gill Of rain water. Dip what
ever is to be marked in strong pearl
ash water. When perfectly dry, iron
it very smooth; the pearlash water
turns it dark color, but washing will
efface it. After marking the linen, put
it near o fire or in the sun to dry. Red
ink for marking linen 10 made by mix
ing and reducing to fine powder half
an ounce of vermillion, q drachm of
the salt of steel, and linseed oil to rem
der it OF the consistency Of black durs-
BILE ink.
BREAD PUDDINa.-Soak the bread in
cold water, then squeeze it very dry,
take out the Jumps, and add boiling
milk, about half pint to one pound of
soaked bread, beat up two eggs, sweeten,
add a little nutmeg, and bake the pud-
ding slowly until firm. If desired, q
few rsisins may be added to the pud-
ding. This is very cheap pudding,
and general fayorite in the nursery.

SICK HEADACHE CURE.-For head.
ache, wet with carhphor piece of fan
mel (red), sprinkle with black pepper
and bind it on the head. And I will
assure you before it is on long your
headache will be gone and you will be
ready to sing song.
To CLEAN PEARLs.-In order to pre-
serve their beauty they should be care
fully kept from dampness. A piece of
paper torn off and rolled up so as to
present soft, ragged edge, is the best
thing to cleanse them with.
To CLEAN MARBLE.-Do not wash it
with suds; this destroys the polish in
time. They should be busted; the
spots taken off with q nice oiled cloth
and then rubbed dry with a soft rag.
CUsTARD FOR CAKES. One pint
milk. four eggs, two cups sugar, and
half cup -four; boil the milk, and while
it is boiling add sugar, eggs and -four,

A few drops of glycerine in a bottle
OF mucilage, will cause the mucilage to
adhere to glass when used upon labels.
