FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
SOME USEFUL HINTS. After cleaning brass with patent preparations rub over with a piece of tallow, then polish with a cloth, and you will achieve maximum brilliancy. Garments that are hanging from a coat-hanger are apt to slip along the line. A way out is to keep especially for that problem a length of chain, acting as a line, and hook the coathanger on it. Never neglect to separate the strands of a mop after using it. Nothing is more significant of negligent housekeeping than a sour mop. ' Stoning dates is a sticky job, but it is greatly facilitated by first smearing the fingers with butter. Soap, water, and wood-ash is a satisfying recipe for the cleaning of sooty tiles.
