"Shine" on Clothing: To remove '• shine" from clothing mix one tablespoonful of laundry blue with half a cup of water. Apply the solution with a soft cloth, press in the usual way and the shine will vanish. Preserve Table Covering: The American cloth on the kitchen table will not crack and break so easily, and will last much longer, if you place heavy brown paper underneath. To Clean Painted Walls: To clean painted walls dip a sponge in kerosene oil and wash a small space at a time. Then take a clean cloth and wash off the oil with cold water. The walls will then look as if they had been newly painted.

This is Very Simple: When cleaning varnished woodwork put a little furniture polish .in the water, instead of using soap. Another good plan is to save the tealoavcs, pour water over them and use this liquid instead of soap and water. To Save Washing Cake Tins: Keep all papers 'in which bread, etc.,. is wrapped, grease them lightly and use thom to line pans for cakes, letting the lining come well above the sides. You save grease and the pan remains quite clean when the cake is removed.
