Two Good Cleaning Recipes.

Here Is a recipe which is etflcaci0us
for cleaning fabrics without injuring
their texture or changing their color.
1t is also particularly good in cleaning
rugs and carpets. Crate two raw pota-
toes in bowl which contains pint
of clear cold water. Now strain
through a sieve, allowing the liquid to
fall into another bowl containing an
other pint of cold water. When it
settles, pour off the water into bot
tie and keep for future use. Dip a
sponge into the potato water and rub
the sOiled garment carefully, after
which it may be washed in clear wa
ter
When ivory knife handles get discol-
ored dip half lemon in salt and rub
on them Wash off Immediately in
warm water, and the handles VIII look
as white as when new.

NECESSITIES FOR SICK ROOM.
Simple Precautions That VIII Save
Lives and Money.

A set of dishes should be selected
tor the sick room and these should be
washed by the nurse and never mixed
with the dishes used by the family.
The nurse should disinfect all bed and
body linen used by the patient and
also keep the sick room and all be-
longings to it free from infection.
Nothing communicates the atmosphere
more than dust and nothing creates
worse air dust contamination than the
spilling of foul discharges on floors,
rugs and bed and body linen and allow
tne them to dry All such foul matter
should be wiped up at once with a
moist disinfected cloth which should
be burned A brt nm Is out of place
in sick room. 1t only scatters the
dust into the air. The only safe dis
posal OF the refuse from a quarantined
room is cremation. The nurse in
charge of case of contagious disease
should avoid direct contact with other
members of the family, especially chill
dren. If needs be she must mingle
with others she should have a special
gown for the sick room which should
be discarded with her cap on coming
out and always worn in the room, and
she should disinfect her hands before
touching anything outside of the room.
All these simple, commonplace quar-
antine regulations faithfully carried
out would save thousands of lives
yearly among the children of the land
and also greatly lessen the cost to
common people for illness and funeral
expenses. Nothing would pay better
than for the heads of all American
households to be their own health of
ticers.-Dr. Kate Lindsay, in the
Housekeeper.

Baked Potatoes.

Select smooth, medium sized pota-
toes wash and put in dripping pan.
Bake in a hot oven over 40 minutes,
or until soft. The potatoes are put
in a dripping pan so that all may be
drawn at one time to try them Test
the potatoes by taking one up in a
holder or towel and If they are soft
and mealy inside, they are done.
Baked potatoes are cooked in their
natural water, and when done the skin
should be broken to let out the steam.
If this is not done, the steam inside
condenses again. and forms water.
and the result is soggy baked pota-
toes. Good Housekeeping.
