USEFUL HINTS.

Keep q separate saucepan for
boiling potatoes in ifpOssible.
A little soda water will often re-
lieve sick headache.
1t rests you when sewing to
change your position often.
Hot, strong lemonade, taken at
bedtime is good for a cold.
A rather warm room. well VENT
lated, is far more healthy than a
cold one with windows closed.
For sore throat, cut slices OF
fat, homeless bacon, pepper thickly
and tie around the throat with a
flannel cloth.
Fill aud trim the lamps in the
morning, if you do not wish to far
nish an item for the accident col
umn of your county paper.
The best way to mend torn
leaves of books is pasting them
with white tissue paper. The print
will show through it.
When you want to take out a
broken window pane, heat the po-
ker, run it slowly along the old
putty, and soften it loose.
You can get through your work
quicker If you keep your knives
sharp. A coarse whets tone such
as shoemakers use is better than
the dOorsteps, or the brick side of
the house.
The best thing for parIng apples
is a knife with a short blade, curv-
ing inward 10 point, something
like a new moon. Grind one that
way and try it. The handle should
be round and comfortable to the
hand.
Dampened salt spread on a
carpet before sweeping will bright
en- it. Each little grain OF salt
picks Up its PARTICLES of dust, it
positively clothes itself with them,
and carries them off instead of al.
lowing them to fly about the room.
Pitchers of milk should never be
allowed to stand after they are
taken from the table, unless placed
at once In refrigerator, containing
only milk or cream and sweet but
ter. Rancid butter will cOmmuni.
cate its Odor and flavor to milk or
cream.
Persons with any tendency to
weak lungs should not expose
to these rude winds,
that like unmannerly people push
themselves in everywhere, without
chest protectors of some kind
Newspapers will answer if nothing
better is at hand, but they should
be put back and front, and over
the shoulders too, for the lungs lie
nearer the shoulders than the chest.
Cotton batting is used by some deli
cate persons with great satisfaction.
