Hints About the Spring housekeeping

Let jokesters have their fun CD
with the housecleaner and her
spring fever. They're the ones
who usually spend the rest of the
year talking about cleanliness
being next to goodness. Houses
DO need cleaning. and by all
means do they need it in the
spring. To be sure, there are lots
OF housekeepers who can devote
enough of their own time or of
somebody else's time to keeping
their home in spick and span or
der ALL the time. but every
housewife can't.
The three most important fac
tors that enter into this house
cleaning job are: Soap, water and
elbow grease" With them and
time one can work wonders.
Bedrooms should be cleaned
first of all; closets being emptied
and thoroughly aired, while win
ter clothes can be stored away.

drawers are wiped out with a
damp cloth and then with linen
cloth dipped in alcohol, contents
may be put back Immediately.

closed those lips again. At last
the fair girl looked at him with
a radiant smile, her red lips
displaying teeth which did
NOT need the care of a dentist.
Her eyes glowed. She was filled
with love and inspiration - and
evidently did not purpose letting

WHEN YOU TAKE
THAT VACATION

One girl who is something
of a traveller puts a large
sheet of blue muslin in the
bottom of the trunk before
the packing is started. When
everything is in, it is folded
over the top of the clothes
and firmly pinned with safe
ty pins.
She finds her garments as
smooth at the end of a trip
as at the start.
Another of her packing
methods is to stow in the hat
box of the trunk all the
loose tissue paper that comes
to the house. This does
away with a mad search for
tissue paper when packing is
to be done.

Never use wooden spoon in
mixing any food containing onion,
nor chop onions in a wooden bowl
as the onion flavor remains in the
wood and cannot be removed for
long time. Such a spoon will
impart an onion flavor to other
foods.
To launder a cotton crepe waist
soak for an hour in lukewarm
soapsuds, using any good soap.
Then wash carefully, so as not to
stretch. Shake well and pull
lengthwise. Hang on coat hang
er and put in the sun to dry. This
helps to keep the shape across the
shoulders. 1t is best to cover the
coat hanger with a Turkish towel
or clean cloth. 1t is also a good
plan to tack piece of tape from
the neck to the armhole. When
laundered in this manner, crepe
waists will retain both their ap-
pearance and their shape.
Instead of mailing the outer
cloth on the ironing board with
common tacks, use thumb tacks.
They are very convenient in
changing the covering, are per-
fectly smooth and look much

To take the best care of jap
AIMED trays, wash them IN warm
water with a little soap and dry
them with a soft cloth, polishing
them with busting of dry flour

FL do not advocate frequent
use of the dry shampoo. One is
apt to grow careless and permit
the powder to reach the scalp,

lage the missionary, passing through,
had left a few pages Of the gospel in
the Indian tongue. Our Indian read
and rejoiced. Measuring the mission
ary's footprint, he fitted it with mag
nificent moccasins, and travelled 200
miles to give them to the missionary
as an expression Of his gratitude.
Thus the missionary was enriched by
the present, but the Indian was en-
riched by the thanksgiving.
The best thanksgiving is happy
heart. Blossoms mean nothing on a
dead stick. Once when the car WIS.,
tied Paris the ingenious French, it
being winter, fastened to the bare
boughs of the trees innumerable paper
flowers, very pretty as a spectacle, but
very unworthy as a symbol, since they
were false. Our praise will be quite
valueless unless it is rooted in the
daily life.
Train yourself to be grateful for the
common blessings. There had been a
great cotton famine in Lancashire,
England. For lack of material to
work upon, the mills had been idle
for months. and there was great dis
tress among the operatives. At last
came the first wagon-load Of cotton,
