CARE OF FLATIRONS.
How to Keep Thorn in Good Condition
and Always Ready for Use.

anu Always Ready for Use.
1t Is so easy to keep tho fatirons in
good condition that there is little OK
cuse for any housewife neglecting
them, no matter how busy she may be-
ANY woman can easily tell at q glance
when these articles are we'll kept.
Some housewives will have in their
possession irons that have been their
mothers before them, and though
they havo been in constunt use for
years, are still as firm and smooth as
any one could wish. Othcr women,
with the same kind of irons, would,
by neglect and ca"cle5sncss, in o year
or two render them unfit to use.
Where there arc many starched
clothes, to be done up weekly, it is Il
good plan to wash the irons once a
week, but whero plain clothes and
only few starchcd arc to. be done,
once month is enough to wash the
irons. Take some clean ammonia
soap suds, and with cloth wash the
irons we'll, afterward wiping with
dry cloth, then put on the back of the
stove in clean place to dry thorough
~. To clean the irons always havo q
piece of coarse sand-paper, or hand
full of coarse tablc-salt on q piece OF
wrapping-paper, in which to rub
them.
Always have the top of tho range
perfectly clean ere putting on the
irons. and never, if it can be avoided,
allow them to get too hot. If such a
1,,,c
up on end on the hearth. Some
women, when in q hurry, cool irons by
plunging them into cold water which
is very poor plan, and those treated
in this way will soon be ruined.
Never do this Or allow it to be done
with your irons, unless you arc pre-
pared to purchase n now set There
is also the danger of scalding from the
steam that suddenly arises when the
iron is first placed in tho water Some
housewives black and polish the
handles and tops of their irons the
same as the stove. but it is scarcely to
be commended, as there is always q
danger of smearing the clothes.
Don't keep tho irons on the stove
tho temper Of the iron, and don't, if il
can bo avoided, have irons on the
stovc when cooking, moro particular
ly whom tho article cooking is one
that is apt to flow or boil over, or
| whilo frying. After taking an iron
from the stove, when wanted for use,
first rub it over q piece of heavy
wrapping paper kept for that purpose,
then rub The smooth part with cloth
in which is encased @ bit of wax
Rub tho iron we'll over a clean cloth
and then it is ready for the clothes.
In ironing starched clothes, if any oi
the starch sticks to tho iron always
scrape it off with a knife ere putting
again to heat on tho stove.
1t is not always the best plan tc
keep the irons on mantel or open
shelf, although it is the usual way, for
they are sure to be dusty when wanted.
1t is much better to keep them in @
dry, closed place, 30 they may always
be ready for use. An old lady of oul
acquaintance always used the lower
oven Of the rango, which is called the
hot closet, but in her range, at least
was misnamed, Us it was q worry COO
place, and was just tho kind of re
ceptacle for any thing that was to be
kept dry, such as irons. -Bostor

The department of state finds itself
somewhat hampered 10 taking care of the
international marine conference because
of the restricted appropriations made for
meeting the expenditures in connection
Herewith. The amount at the disposal Of
the department is but s2o, 600 and at the
outset the officials are confronted by the
probable necessity of devoting almost half
that sum to preparation of the report of
the proceedings by French steaographer
and interpreter. Official courtesies to the
delegates must necessarily be meagre be-
cause of the limited appropriations. A

rotary of the navy and were shown through
