HOUSEHOLD NOTES

Many housewives believe in boil ing new earthware before using it. as this effectually toughens and hard ems it. This is particularly effica- cious in the ease of ordinary brown kitchen ware, the articles being placed in a large pan of cold water which is then brought slowly to boil for ten water to cool before taking out the ware.
 F7annels that have become yellow can be made to look like new by soak ing for two or three hours in a lather made of one-quarter pound of white soap, two tablespoonfuls of borax and two tablespoonfuls of carbonate of ammonia dissolved in five gallons of soft water. Boil the soap in water until thoroughly dissolved then add the other ingredients. Rinse well. This will not injure the flannels in the least.
 Wash woolens by hand and in water not too hot, say about 10S degrees. and you never will have them shrink or look bad. Use a good, pure soap to wash them, making the father. and there are spots. Rinse in water of the same temperature as that in which you washed the articles. Before hang ing them up to dry shake them well. and while they are drying shake them again.
 Rubber hot-water bottles may be mended as follows: Cut one inch of clear para rubber into small pieces and place in one pint of benzine; cover tightly and leave two Or three days, or until the liquid is about as thick as honey. Apply this cement to the surface af the bag and the atch, which should also be of rubber
