HINTS "WORTR WHILE"
TO SAVE TIME AND WORK IN
THE HOUSEHOLD.
Renovating of Old Wooden Floors a
Matter of Easy Arrangement
Treatment to Get Best Results
From the Oil Lamps.

Old wooden floorstare a woman's
trial, They can be improved this way:
Dissolve one pound of glue in two
gallons of water. Stir into this
enough fine sawdust to make a thick
paste and fill the cracks with it. The
paste may be colored to match the
wood.
cracks with putty One can make
the putty by mixing whiting and lin
seed-oil together and kneading it un-
til the paste is smooth. The putty
may also be colored to match the
wood
Some persons soak finely shredded
paper in water and boil it until it
is soft pulp and to every two gallons
add one pound of glue. The cracks
must be filled solid and even with the
boards Then stain or paint
Soak lamp wicks in vinegar, then
dry them thoroughly to keep the lamp
from smoking.
Alcohol will take out candle grease.
Hold a hot fatiron a few minutes
above white spot N furniture. 1t
will soon disappear.
Discoloration on china and baking
dishes and custard cups can be re-
moved with whiting.
Brooms will last longer if dipped
occasionally in boiling suds.
Always wash veal and mutton in
weak vinegar before cooking.
A coating of good machine oil
rubbed over the fiatirons and the
bright metal parts of the sewing ma
chine will keep the rust away,
Chores must be done, but a boy
and girl must have time for some
fun if they are to be happy.
Never take a step or climb stair
that is not absolutely necessary. We
waste much strength in useless pot
tering.
1t is not the woman who works the
hardest who prospers most, but the
one who works to the best advantage.
When farm folk take a vacation
they should not go to another place
in the country but to the city. People
from the city go to the country for
change of scene, which means rest.
Farm folks ought to go to the city
for the same reason
Disease often turks in the sink or
the bath tub pipes. Hot water and
lye, carbolic acid or ammonia will
keep them clean.
Muriatic acid will remove dark
stains on the porcelain sing or bath
tub.
