her services. She suggested that she

gathering together and packing the linen

For each family that enga ged her she

To Polish Floors.

When cleaning a polished flooring sur
face that has been waxed. whether it is
parquet flooring. linoleum floor cloth.
a good plan Is to tie a large soft duster
around a corn broom and so over the
floor carefully with it. This takes up the
dust without causing any to fly about. as
one does sweeping in the usual way.
When this Is done remove the duster.
and in its place cover the broom with
bag made of fannelette. or any similar
material you may have. sewing several
thicknesses over the part that comes in
contact with the floor. An old piece of
velvet or plush or the legs OF old stock
ings do well as substitutes for the fan
nelette. Then hold the broom santwise,
rubbing it backward and forward all over
the floor. thus polishing the surface with
out the trouble of STOPPING. Occasionally
the floor will need a coat of floor polish,
but the method here given is easy and
the work is done in a few minutes in a
very satisfactory manner.

Household Hints.

To remove grease from rugs make a
paste of fuller's earth and turpentine
Rub II well into the soiled places and
then allow them to dry thoroughly. When
dried beat the spots gently and then re-
move all traces of the powder with a
soft brush.
To prevent milk from burning rinse the
saucepan in clean. cold water before
pouring the milk In II. 1t is also more
easily cleaned when 1t is so rinsed be-
forehand.
To purify the air in a room odorous
from the smell of cooking. before or after
dinner or in a sickroom, pour a few
drops Of oil of lavender in glass of
very hot water. Almost instantly the
room becomes filed with a faint but very
acceptable odor of freshness.
To get the best value out Of meat bones
boil them when boiling a piece of bacon
or ham. The liquor. when cold, sets
in a Jelly. which is very useful and nour-
ishing for making soup or gravy. An as
tonishing amount of goodness can be
hoiled out of bones and doing 1t with
the ham saves trouble and fuel
To get the best flavor and effect from

the lemon till tender and when cold take

Adjusting a Porous Plaster.

No one who has ever worn a plaster of

which the plaster covers seems to cling

and thousands of usually quiescent nerves
make their location painfully known.
Here is a method of adjusting plaster

the back where the plaster is to go. and
then press 1t on the expanded surface. In

THE VALUE OF
AN OUTDOOR LIFE
By ABIGAIL MOORE.

While opinions differ as to the relative
health value of various outdoor sports.
there is no question OF the value of fresh
air. Better curtail the allowance of food
than the daily portion of air in the open.
1t is easy for majority OF people to
form the habit of staying indoors in cold
weather. instead of welcoming every op-
portunity for outdoor exercise. This is
because they have not learned how to
enjoy the cold. Instead of Opening up
to 1t. they probably shrink within them
selves and, with muscles tense, brace

and benefit to be derived from a winter
walk depends upon these two points:
whether the steps are rhytbmical and
the breathing deep. even. and through
the noetris-where the air is warmed be-
