THE ART OF WASHING DISHES.

A beginner in home keeping makes a
failure of dish washing and asks n
experienced for better methods. She
does not look nice either and altogether
she says she breads this duty. Many
others dread this part of household
work that comes three times a day,
and it is we'll to learn to do it properly.
The chief things required to make dish
washing a pleasure are care, order and
plainly of hot water and nice tea tow
els. Too many make the mistake of
trying to make one towel do duty for
three. First sort the dishes, putting
each kind together-the glassware,
china and silver in separate heaps.
Then put the cooking utensils on the
range and fill them with water in or
der that they may Soa until the time
comes to wash them. Begin with the
glassware. Make q hot suds of rain
water, using pearline rather than soap,
as it seems to clean quicker and easier.
Have at land a clean towel and an
extra one to polish with. Do not try to
use a damp towel, it does not pay.
Next wash the silver. then the cups and
pieces that are not greasy, and lastly
The plates and dishes. Have mOps for
deep-mouthed pitchers and little. stiff
brushes for cut glass. A little borax
in the water hat is used for the cook
them sweet and clean. This kind of
work may easily be done while sitting.
1t is not necessary to stand in order to
wash dishes. If a house wife will
provide herself with the proper nipple
mantS and go about it in the right way
dish washing need not be such a dread
full task as most women make it.

All women work; some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl of society. And in stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadInill, earning
their daily bread.
All are subject to the same physical
laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of female complaints, tumors,
liberation, falling and displace-
ments or perhaps ir~regularity or
suppression, causing backache, ner-
vousness, irritability and lassitude.
They especially require an invigorat-
ing, sustaining medicine which will
strengthen the female organism an2
enable them to bear easily the fatigues
of the day. to sleep well at night, and
to rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing to see a woman
struggling to earn a livelihood or per-
form her household duties when her
back and head are aching, she is so
tired she car hardly drag about or
stand up, and every movement causes
pain, the origin OF which is due to
