this announcement The Rev. w. S. ttazen
has been an advocate Of such building

She is perplexed about conditions of
which she cannot speak to any other.
She thinks of the family physician. But
her delicate nature shrinks from the
questions she might be called upon to
answer. And SO without counsel or help
she drifts along while every day time
tightens the letters of disease.
Young women instinctively know that
certain conditions are abnormal. They
know that heads and backs were not
made to ache. But they do not know
where to turn for relief.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.
Some Sensible SUGGESTIONS.

Clear as you go. Middle makes
more muddlc.
Spare neither soda nor hot water in
washing up greasy articles.
Egg, Will cook much more evenly
if the irving pan is covered.
Not to wash plates and dishes soon
after using makes extra work.
Nutmegs may be tested 10y prlcking
with pin, when oil will exude from
fresh ones.
New stockings should always be
washed before being worn, for the
washing causes slight shrinkage and
makes them wear better.
Glass covers for platters are some
times used instead of metal. They
equally preserve the heat OF the dish
and have the advantage ot not hiding
it.
Kid boots and shoes may be beau
tiiully cleaned by dipping little bi,
of sponge in white OF egg, to which
has been added a little ink and few
drops OF oil, and rubbing we'll
Ii shoe be accidentally scorched
it can be restored by spreading the
place at once with soft soap and, when
cool, wiping off the soap and rubbing
the leather with a little sweet oil OIL
vaseline.
To clean black cashmere wash the
material in warm suds in which a
little borax has been dissolved. Rinse
in very deep blue-water and iron
while still damp. If carefully done
the material should look like new.
