How to Wash Dishes.

A writer in a domestic journal gives
some good advice on the subject about
which the women folks have no doubt
troubled their heads more than about
any other connected with their duties.
One OF the most wearisOme domestic
tasks which falls to the housewife do
ing her own work is the "never-ending,
still beginning washing of dishes. 1t
is often a real pleasure to prepare a
dainty palatable meal; n well-earned
satisfaction in viewing the work Of

of white or brown bread, the roast OF
flesh or fowl, done TO turn, the per-
feet cake, quiycring custards. etc. But
no one of these toothsOme viands can

various pans. spoons, cups, etc, all to

already weary-for modern invention,
fertile rs it is, has not yet, to my
knowledge, produced an automatic
dish-washer and dryer. 1t is discour-
aging, and few things sooner bring the
tired housckeeper's spirit down to
zero especially if the mercury has al
ready gone down to that poiuO than a
kitchen-table full of sticky, greasy,
unwaShed dishes greeting her rs she

addition to the dishes used upon the

By taking some simple precautions the

"Whist may be classed among the

that Paul Morphy will be duplicated

EATING FROM NECESSITY.
Uninviting Rounds of Life of the Ordinary
Man of Business.

How many of us really and truly sit
down at the table, and, as we should,
enjoy our eating? asks n writer in the
St. Louis Gl0be-D Democrat. Eat to en-
Joy life. We have no doubt but that
the following narrative will be recog-
nized as Chat of a personal experience
by many: Arise in the morn early or
late, as the case may be, under protest
"a sufficient testimony that balmy
sleep, his sweet restorer, has failed to
make proper connections, so to speak;
move about. strange to say, stretchey,
achey, even tired yet, eyes hard to get
open properly, maybe fall over n chair
or two, or stoop over to get some
article of apparel and be compelled to
make an effort. In fact he must go
through bracing-up process After
performing his morning toilet he has
limbered up some, got his eyes open
and floundered down stairs to the
breakfast table. Looked at the watch
mentally concluded or realized that he
must be at business right off. Braces
up again and mechanically, may be
vigorously, proceeds to INCEST what he
can; matter of necessity, never hungry
for breakfast, you know.
Rush out of house for street cars,
stand up maybe all the way down town.
If he is fortunate enough to get a
seat he experiences a sort of relief,
and recognizes that he is still tired.
Got to work dull and lstless. Necessi-
ties or excitement of work for five
hours or so occupies his attention.
Whistle blows, bell rings, clock strikes
or friend comes in. Dinner is sought;
feels somewhat empty, hardly hungry;
eats fair meal aud feels full; empty
feeling gone. A desire to rest is eX-
perenced- sleep. Braces up and
again gets to work for five hours or
more; has to struggle for awhile; eyes
are very heavy; sense of discomfort
about stomach. Finally time tostop
work comes; closes upactive effort, but
mind and attention still fingers. He
starts nome with heavy legs and feet;
headache; maybe somewhat dizzy. No
seat on cars this way either; recognizes
that he is very tired.
Gets home, crawls up the front steps
and eXclaimS: Supper ready?n Yes.
come right along. He sits down, has
no appetite, but eats again, 'from
necessity" Not much, easily satisfied.
Feels sort OF weak about his stomach
rs well as otherwise Putters around
in or out of the house for a while OF
reads the paper; feels "a little better;
seeks. maybe, entertainment, the eX-
element Of which fixes his attention
from self At last he seeks repose ex-
hausted, and maybe sleeps heavy, o,
not at all. The next morn and day
bring the same experience, and so on
day after day.
Eternal effort; eternal desire for rest
eternal lack of enjoyment Of life
eternal eating from necessity. Can we
wonder that this man eats from
necessity? Yet this is an American OF
to-day. His distemper is of his own
making, Heis robbey Of nature aud
