Hints to Housekeepers.

How TO WASH FLANNELs.-Ex.
ceeding care should be taken in
washing flannels that the water is
not too hot. First make a suds of
some good soap, using a soap that
is not too strong. Wash the fan
mel article lightly between the
hands-not rubbing very much.
Then when clean rinse in water a
little warmer than the water in
which it was washed. Do not hang
out of doors if cold. When partly
dry iron with a moderately-hot
iron. Flannel should be we'll shak-
en-, but never wrung out, and above
all never use wringer with it.
To WASH BLACK GOODS. -Get five
cents worth of soap bark, tie it in a
small bag of cheese cloth or other
thin goods, throw it into a kettle
of boiling water and let it boil for
several hours then stand it off to
cool and remove the bag from the
water. Thoroughly brush your
black goods, and when the water is
cool enough for you to bear your
hand in it wash out your material,
one breadth at a time, and as each
piece is washed hang it on a line to
dry. Pat on several irons to heat
when you are ready to begin the
washing, and as soon as the last
breadth is hung up begin to iron
the first one washed, ironing on
the wrong side and until perfectly
dry. You will be surprised to find
your material equal to new goods
if care and judgment are used.
For CLEANING BLACK Silk
Put in saucepan pair of old
black glazed kid gloves, two tea
spoonfuls of ammonia ard a pint
and a half of water. Boil until
the gloves are reduced to a hard
ball and the liquid reduced one
half. Cover an ironing beard with
some black material to prevent the
lint from the sheet adhering to the
silk. With q piece of black goods
dipped in the liquid rub the right
side of the silk thoroughly, then
turn and press with moderately
hot iron on the wrong side and
hang smoothly on a line until we'll
aired. This will give old silk a
gloss and firmness almost equal to
new silk.

If the case promises to require long
siege of poulticing, buy five yards of
cheeseclOth and make up into small bags,
leaving one end open. This will great
ly aid the nurse, as she then need only
paste the bag together across the open
end. If possible put a small gas stove
in an adjoining room, where the nurse
may go to prepare the fresh poultices
without leaving the patient alone. Cow
er the poultice after applying with a
folded square of flannel, and over this
place large square of oiled silk. which
will aid greatly in retaining the heat.
Saint Mary's beacon. [volume] (Leonard Town, Md.) 1867-1983, 1897-01-14

All poultices should be mixed with
boiling water, and boiled for short
time. Made in this way the heat is re-
tanned for a much longer time than if
they are simply mixed with boiling wa
ter.
