To Wash Willow Furniture.

To clean willow furniture, provide
yourself with a coarse brush dipped
in strong salt and water, scrub each
piece well, then dry with a soft brush.
Salt cleans willow and also keeps it
from turning yellow. If it is desired
to keep the natural light color of the
willow, apply a coat of linseed oil.
BY this treatment the willow strands
of which the piece is woven will lose
their dry brittleness and become soft
er an3 more pliable, bending under a
blow instead of breaking. This treat
ment has another good effect besides
making the chair last longer--it makes
it less noisy. coat of oil allows the
strands to slip more smoothly and cas-
lily, and therefore more quietly upon
each other.

HOUSEHOLD WISDOM

Hard-boiled eggs chopped fine and
mixed with mustard. little cream and
seasoning will make a delicious sand
witch.
1t is a good idea to save. if possible,
definite sum for furniture replace
ments. This applies especially to the
keeper of a new house.
New blankets should be shaken and
soaked in cold water overnight to
take out the sulphur dressing and
make them more easily washed.
Whenever possible save the green
leaves of a head Of lettuce for egg
salad, while the hearts are kept for
the tomato, fruit and other salads.
A weak solution of turpentine poured
down the water pipes once week will
drive the water bugs away.
Shabby oak should be brushed over
with warm beer and when thoroughly
dry polished with beeswax and tur-
pentine.
Furs that have become fat and oily
looking about the neck may be made
fresh and like new by rubbing the fur
the wrong way with hot iron. Furs
that have been wet should never be
hung in front of the stove or an open
fire to dry.
For mud stains on dresses dissolve
with it wash the mud stains. Another
plan is to rub the stains with cut
raw potato, afterward removing the
potato juice by rubbing it with fam
mel dipped in water.
In cold weather put the clothespins
in pan and set in the oven until they
are hot. Then the fingers will not
suffer when hanging out the clothes,
especially if the clothes are rinsed out
the asst time in warm water.
TO clean bamboo furniture use a
brush dipped in warm water and salt.
The salt prevents the bamboo from
turning color.
To clean lamp burners wash them
in wood ashes and water and they will
come out clean and bright.
If lemons are warmed before they
are squeezed nearly double the guam
tity of juice will be obtained
If you want to save gas, remember
that sheet of tin placed over the
smallest gas jet will heat two fiatirons
as quickly as if two jets were used
Muslin and cotton goods can be rem
dered fireproof by putting an ounce
of alum in the last rinsing water. or
by putting it in the starch.
A mousehole can be effectually
stopped for all time by pasting over it
piece of cloth which has been liber-
ally sprinkled with red pepper.
