HOUSEHOLD HINTS

Many carpet sweepers do not take dirt long before the brush Is worn out This is because the brush does not revo1ve properly. This can be corrected by carefully wrapping the brush wheels with a narrow strip of passe-partout binding until the wonn brush wheel meets the cores bonding side wheel. Then you will have no more trouble.
 To clean brass flower pots or trays rub them with a piece of lemon. then pour boiling water over them. Final ly polish with a soft, dry cloth.
 To clean mica in stoves never use soap and water, as that will cause it to scale at once. Dip a soft cloth in vinegar and rub the mica over quickly. All smoke will disapper and it will stay clear for a long time.
