SUBSTITUTES FOR CLOSETS.

A thrifty housekeeper, whose house
boasts of but few closets, has surnountel /
the difficulty By having several boxes
made to slip under the beds. These are
made Of the same size as the bed itself,
and are mounted on small wheels sunk
into the wood so that they may run easily
in and out. Although necessarily shallow
they hold a great deal, aud their great
advantage is that garments may be laid
IN them at full length. One OF these
boxes she has lined with camphor wood
so that the winter furs are simply laid in
it an locked up. These boxes should bt
carefully painted. Implanted or uuyar
nishe wood should never be left in d
bedroom, as the natural wood harbor:
insects. White paint looks the best, aud
the box should have a fresh coat once 1t
while. There should be some arrange.
meut on both sides OF the box to pull il
in either direction. A tin-lincd box i,
also capital arrangement for the sea.

delicate garments; for this purpose there
is nothing nicer than box sofa, arranged

DIsHwAsHING As A FINE ART.

The woman who can find any way Of
making dishwashing, if not pleasant
task, at least less disagreeable one than
it if now, should be canoniLcl by her
grateful sisters. One woman, who has
spent much time in experiment in this
branch of household labor, makes the fol.
lowing suggestion:
Nothing is better for cleansing
greasy dishes, especially cooking pan;
and kettles, than an old whisk broom. II
removes the tenacious PARTICLES that have
fastened in the kettles and spiders much
better than n knife or al iron dish cloth.
1t is invaluable for cleaning graters. To
