Hints 10 Housekeepers.

Hints 10 Housekeepers.
AN oiled floor is excellent for the kitchen
because the greese never shows.
Towels will give better wear if overcast
between the fringe before they are wash
ed
Mignonette may be kept as pot plant
for years, provided no seeds are allowed
to develop.
Never put patent fasteners on shoes
until they have been worn and stretched
for a couple of weeks.
The toughest fowl can be made eatable
if put into cold water, plenty OF it, and
cooked vesy slowly from five to six
hours.
Always put through the eye OF the
needle first the end OF thread which
comes off the spool, and the thread will
be less apt to knot and snarl
If one wishes to cool a hot dish in a
hurry, il will be found that if the dish
be placed in a vessel full of cold, salty
water, it will cool far more rapidly than
if stood in water free from salt.
Instead of putting food into the oven
to keep hot for late corners, try cover
ing it closely with tin and setting it
over basin of hot water. This IN
will keep the food hot, and at the same
time prevent it FROM drying.
Have the table at which one sews at
night spread with light color, or, if ii
must have dark one, a sheet of white
paper may be used over it. A needle
can be threaded with much greater ease
if held over a white surface.
1t is always better to have special
closet for keeping the kitchen tins and
other untensils needy in cookery. Cook
ed food should always be kept on a shell
by itself. 1t is a great mistake to mil
up matters by devoting shelf in the
grocery to cooked food.
Cover the earth in your window boxes
half an inch deep with pulverized char
coal. This always gives real vigor to the
red or violet color of flowers. Roses as
sumo deeper hue, violets take on irreg
ular spots of BLUSH or black TINT ant
white petunias are varied with red O.
violet streaks.

The Cyclopedic Review of Current
History for the second quarter of 1898 is
now ready. 1t is wonderful compen-
dunn Of the prominent events of the last
three months; while its subjects are, of
necessity, briefly treated, nothing of i'm
portance appears to have been omitted.
Under the general titles of Leading
Topics. international Affairs, ''''Affairs
in Europe affairs in ASIA "Affairs in
Africa, /" Science, Literature and Miscel-
lany," it details the worlds most recent
happenings with singular minuteness,
perspicacity, and fidelity telling all that
really needs to be known about any one
subject, and referring to all subjects of
consequence in a most intelligent and
practical way. A work like this is ne
cessity in these busy, bustling times of
ours, and this work seems to be the best
of its species. While there are similar
publications, the Cyclopedic Review
holds an original and exclusive position.
It's peculiar merits entitle it to general
recognition. (Garretson, Cox & Co.,

trates and places this power in the
