HOW to cleanse six STOCKINGS.

Plain silk stockings may be washed
as other silk underwear, but lace woven
ones are best cleaned with benzine or
naphtha. This is also true Of those Of
delicate tintss Turn them wrong side
out, shake them free of all removable
particles, lay them fiat in an earthen
dish and flood them with naphtha. Ag-
itate them rapidly for minute or two;
then turn them and wash the other side
in clean naphtha. That just used, after
settling a few seconds, may be passed
away from the sediment Of dirt aud
used to clean textiles less delicate
Hang the clean stockings to air until
there is no smello naphtha about them.

and rub, when dry, with a Cloth satu-
rated with kerosene. The bundle, of
kindling wood is a prolific source Of
water bugs in the house. Each bundle
before it iscarried in should be knocked
violently down on the cellar foor or

ready with a kettle Of boiling water to
prevent the escape Of the bugs that run
from it, but by far the better way il

How to Cook Corned Beef.

The best piece of corned beef is the
round. Either Foil it whole or divide it
in halves, taking care that each piece
shall have portion of the fat. Wash it
well, and if very salt soak it in two wa
ters. Skewer it up compactly in good
shape, wrapping the flap piece firmly
around it. Tie it together with strong
broad tape. Put it into large pot,
cover we'll with water and put over a
moderate fire that it may heat gradually
all through. Carefully remove all scum
as it rises, and when no more appears
keep the boiler closely covered. letting
it boil slowly and regularly, with the
fire at an equal temperature. Allow 81
hours to q piece weighing 10 pounds
and from that to four or five hours in
proportion to the size. Many think it
best to stew corned beef rather than boil
it. a., % ~. ,:.-.s,~ b.. 49,. -. {,
, To stew it put no more water in the
pot than will barely cover the meat and
keep it gently simmering over q slow
fire four or five hours, according to the
size of the piece. In carving around OF
beef slice it horizontally and very thin.

Democracy has given Georgia State
government that has built up her
credit and enabled the people to live

not do more than that if every one of
their principles we're founded on

those about free coinage and the gov
