Household Hints.

Never allow meat to remain in pa
per or in the kitchen or it will quick
ly become tainted.
Silk should never he ironed on the
right side. as it will be shiny wherever
the iron has touched it.
When washing coarse clothes use
soft soap. as it will go farther than
the ordinary yellow and is more eff
~fcacious.
To rid carpet of moth. soak the af-
fected part in benzoline. being care
full that there is no light or fire any
where near.
Do not leave wooden tubs dry or
they will quickly crack and come
apart. Keep a little water always
standing in them.
To keep the water fresh and sweet
in vases of cut flowers. add to it a
small bit of sugar. This is successful
even in the case of such blooms as
w~allflowers.
When ironing handkerchiefs begin
in the middle. When the edges are
ironed first, the middle Of the hand
kerchief is apt to swell up like a bal
Ion, making it difficult to iron the
whole properly.
