How to Wash with Ease.

That washing ccnnot be satisfactorily done with a scant supply of hard water and inferior, soap is not always clear to housekeepers, and yet it is the cause of oft-repeated failure. To trash properly, assort the clothes. Put the linens first In a tub of hot water, rub with Ivory Soap, scald, rinse, starch, hang on the line. Wash the colored pieces through clean suds in the same war. When dry, sprinkle, and lay in a basket over night. Iron carefully with well-heated irons. ELIZA R. PARKER.
