WASHING of Clothes

In undertaking the washing of
clothes at home they should be wrung
out in cold water, then soaped well all
over, rubbing between the hands and
giving extra attention where it is re-
quired. Next put the garments into a
tub, pour some tepid water over them,
and add half pint OF liquid soap to
every half a gallon of water. Stir the
clothes about in this, rubbing inside
and out between the hands, and put
them into the boiler. Make some good
suds of boiling water and three parts
of soap to one of soda or borax. Cover
with cold water, and boil slowly for a
quarter of an hour or more, then rinse
In cold water, and, if practicable, lay
on the grass to bleach, sprinkling them
first with soft, clean rain water. This
treatment should make the things daz-
zlingly white and spotlessly clean.

the omelet is less likely to stick. Place

the pan with you to the range and
have conveniently near a bowl and

do not let it brown. Turn in the
eggs, shake the pan gently, and as
the eggs thicken at the edges pull
back the cooked portions with the
knife, tipping the pan to allow the
uncooked part to flow toward the
edge. The omelet should slip on the
pan when the latter is shaken with

it sharply with knife; then put your
thumbs together at the crack and
gently break the shell apart To sep

the egg upright while breaking the
shell, so that the yolk will remain

Eggs are added differently to diff
