An Ideal Home.

Ny idea of good housekeeping is

mosphere of kindness and chuerfulness
that peryades the place. and where the
household machinery always runs
smoothly because of the constant
thoughtfulness of the mistress of the

home, and the woman who makes such

reform in the matter of excessive meat
eating and beer drinking and cause
people to pay more attention to the

that much of the corn fed to pigs would
do more good if eaten by people. The

AROUT PEARLINE.

From WatchmGnl, Boston. Mass, Dec, II, 1889.
Every one knows about Pearline, almost
every one uses Pearllne, but we wonder if all
the housekeepers who use it know half that
can be done with it. We wonder if they all
know what some of the bright ones have dis
covered, that those mountains of dish-wash-
ing-the greasy pan and kettle-may be re-
duced to molehills of the smallest size by the
judicous use of Pearline. Fill the roasting
pan, as soon as the gravy is poured from it,
with cold water, shake in a little Pearline
and set on the stove. By the time the rest of
the dishes are washed, all of the grease is dis
solved and the pan can be washed as easily
as a plate. Treat the kettle in which any
thing greasy has been boiled in the same
way, and beside clean utensils you will have
a clean sink, the use OF the Pearline render
ing it safe to pour such dishwater into it.
Sinks regularly treated to bath of Pearline
and scalding water will seldom need the SER
vices of plumber.
