GIVE STUDY TO DRAINAGE

1t is doubtless important that the house
should look neat and well picked up but
the wise housewife is She who does not
allow that duty to prevent her giving close
attention to other and more serioU matters.
Watch the pipes well. Twice day at least
the kitchen sink should pe flushed with boil
ing water. BE generous with il. II the hot
water be scarce use cold with generosity.
Never allow scraps of eatabies, tea leaves,
grease. etc, TO collect in the sink drain pipe.
If there be a maid in the Kitchen see that
she is equally scrupulous in this matter as
you would be.
A good wash To use from time To time
in the sinks. esc., is as follows: Select some
OLD cooking Itensii which YOU will not again
need for other purposes. In this dissolve
pint of washing soda in twelve quarts
OF right ho. water. Leave upon the stove
until all the soda is dissolved. Use this
for pouring into the pipes and sinks This
mixture destroys clOtS OF grease, etc. In
usingit upon your bathtub do not allow the
soda TO reach the tin or any portion but
the pipe. This can be avoided by pur-
chasing a small funnel for the purpose.
1t is important thatthe stationary wash
tubs in the laundry be kept sweet and clean.
Flushing these is necessary after Mon
day wash, as the suds. if allowed to so,
are apt TO clog the pipes. They should be
well scrubbed, in addition, with soap, hot
water and a brush. For destroying bad
odors, copperas is extremely useful. This
comes in cans for the purpose. 1t mixed
with water Experienced housewives say
that it is best prepared in the following
way: One pound of the copperas is placed
In a good sized bottle, holding about a

on this question.
The Pres dent will attend to this mat
ter. as he is committed to home rule, and
l believe we can rely safely on the pa
triotism and good will of the few who
are put over us. Again. in this proposed
action. we are bordering very closely on
the consideration of IL political question,
and | beg this institution not to proceed
in that direction. If you do. you will do
a great injury To a great institution. You
are treading on dangerous ground
MIR. Julian Dowell sustained the resou-
ton, as the board was composed Of Demo-
ciats and Republicans alike.
Mr.. Weston Flint thought the questions
raised by Mr.. Lancaster very important.
Congress ought TO be looked after. for it
might happen one Of these days that it
would require the District to pay all the
taxes.
Mr.. Noyes, supporting the resolution,
said that SO far as he could see, the
objecti ons made referred only to the
right OF the board of trade TO consider
the question AS to the call il was regular
and he thought that the objections should
have been thought of before the meeting
and not at this stage.
Mr.. Noyes maintained that there was not
the slightest impropriety, So far as the
President lect was concerned, in passing
the pending resolution. He would say
that it was impossible To find, in the phrase
ology of the resolution, word conveying
the idea that the President might violate
the pledges of the platform. If that were
so he would be among the first TO move
to strike it out He challenged the objec-
tors to point out a single thing in the
resolution which would Justify any mem
hcr in voting against it, or anything that
contained the alleged reflections ON the
President.
This c.osed the debate, after which the
secretary read a letter from the Hon.
Simon Wolf, i'll Which he indorsed heartily
the object Of the meeting, and said among
other things that to assume that there
were not people here who could fill the
offices was TO have a certificate of poverty
issued to the District.
Mr. MillaId renewed his proposition to
have the board record Itself in favor OF
d Commissioner from East Washington,
and offered preamble and resolution the
latter of which was:
RES oIved, That in the tpiriCn of the
Board of Trade the law should be so
changed as to provide for live Commits
sioners, and that they should be so selected
as TO give representation to four sec tons
OF the city and to the county,
The consideration of the resolution was
ruled out by the chair, whereupon Mr.
Millard gave notice that Re would call it
up at the next regular meeting OF the
board.
Mr.. Noycs' resolution was then put and
carried with only few dissenting votes.
