Green Surface Soil in Flower Pots.

1t falls to the lot of many amateurs
to be troubled with green surface soil
in their flower pots. 1t is very I'M
slightly and bad for the plants, as it
clogs the pores of the soil and prevents
the passage Of air through it. In some
cases the fault or cause is to be found
in the water used, in others in the soil
Turf taken from low lying meadows
often soon becomes green when al
lowed to lie in one place for con-
id"rable time. 1t smells sour and is
,.lliy sour before it is used in the
pots; then the constant application Of
water quickly results in a green sur
face appearing. Avery small quantity
of dry dust lime scattered on the sur
face once month will often prevent
the green growth. and will not be in
furious to ordinary greenhouse plants.
But of course the quantity supplied
must be small, and only given where
there are not any surface roots to be
seen. Do not water after applying the
lime, but allow it to remain on for one
day and night, then carefully remove
the surface crust. Where a layer Of
moss has actually grown on the soil it
should be cleared off with the aid of a
wooden ladle. You will not find any
roots near the surface in this case.

To Keep Linen.

Does the average housekeeper real
izc that the surest way to keep linen
is not to use it consecutively Does
she know that. in spite of the original
outlay of money necessary to provide
herself with a large stock of linen, the
possession of great many pieces is
in reality the most economical meth
cd. For instance, one woman found
that by using one set of tablecloths
and napkins for six months and then
putting it away for years rest, dur
ing which time she levied on her ex-
ira supplies. her napery could be made
to last almost twice as long as did that
of other women. In the same way
this woman was, in the habit of let
ting two weeks elapse before she used
each sheet again. And at the end OF
two months she put away the set that
she had just been using and got from
the depths of her linen closet another
set.

Household Hints.

For sting Of poisonous insect, wash
wound with salt or soda water.
Cutting onions, turnips and carrots
across the fiber makes them more ten
der when cooked
To SINCE chickens hold them over a
saucer OF burning alcohol. 1t does not
leave SCOT on the flesh.
Slight stains can be removed from
black cloth by rubbing with a freshly
cut raw potato, wiping with a clean
cloth.
Chicken salad is delicious n mixed
with small pieces of green pepper and
mayonnaise. Press the meat into pep
per cases.
Burning oil is spread by water. To
extlnguish it throw down -four, sand or
earth. The idea is to prevent the oil
spreading.
A cloth, wrung out of hot vinegar
and water and laid on the forehead as
hot as can ha borne, will relieve a
headache. -

Fruit Is the Best Medicine.

Here are the prescriptions of cele-
brated physician: Eat fruit for break
fast, for dinner, for supper. Shun hot
rolls, hot biscuits and buttered toast.
Eat whole wheat bread. Refuse rice
pudding. Decline potatoes if they are
served more than once day. Do not
drink too much coffee or tea and very
little beer and whisky. Walk several
miles each day. Take a bath every
day in summer and every other day In
winter. Brush the teeth and wash the
face in warm water every night just
before retiring. Sleep eight hours.
Here are the fruits to be eaten: Apples,
grapes and bananas at any time. These
are the three healthiest fruits and the
habitual eater will require no medicine.
Peaches are good for the clearing of
muddy complexion. Pears are healthy
raw, but better when cooked. Straw
berries are good for rheumatism. Or
anges are good for dyspepsia, but pine
apples are even better. Lemons are a
fine fruit tonic and a few drops
squeezed into half wincglass of water
each morning or night will act more
beneficially on the system than purga-
tive pills or salts.
