thing which the Democracy Is espe-
cially anxious to smite between the

Silver forks that have been used for
fish are apt to retain fishy taste.
especially If they have been used in
eating ikippered herrings or soused
mackerels. This fishy taste can be
removed readily by washing the forks
in cold water before washing, then In
the dishpan with the other dishes in
hot soap water. Cold water, used
