Coffee burned on hot coals will purify

a sickroom and overcome disagreeable

odors.

. Brushing moth holes in furniture

with paraffin will arrest their progress.

The holes should be filled with parafln wax '

When silver is not in constant use a

piece of camphor will keep it from tarnishing.

To polish aluminium make a mixture

of borax, ammonia and water. Apply with a soft cloth.

For those having asparagus ferns

that do rspt seem to grow try putting a spoonful of castor oil around the roots and notice the change In about six

weeks.

Valuable china and glass may be sav

ed from chipping by placing a heavy

Turkish towel at the bottom of the basin in which it is washed.

When using a bottle of glue the stop

per may be prevented from sticking

by rubbing a fresh one with a little lard or grease of some krnd and using

that in place of the old, sticky one.

Put a good-sized lump of salt into a

cup of vinegar and put into the vessel

that is discolored and let It stand for half a day. Wash well with warm

water and soap and sediment will come

off easily.

It is net blouse Is to be. laundered It

should be ironed on the wrong side

with a clean and moderately hot iron

while it is quite damp. This causes the new fabric to stiffen. Lace may be

treated in the same way.
