Daik ('.rerses breed carelessness; liRlit ones, carefulness. A dark cotton dress catches and retains as much dirt as a light one. Don't use your dress as a towel. Have a towel aiways handy near the sink, and wash and wipe your hands frequently while about your house- work or cookinK. Dirty hands arc causes are understood Tarnish is the result of the combination of the silver from sulphur, but this occurs only in moist air. Tarnish will never appear in silverware that is kept where the air is perfectly dry. A.ir contains hydrosulphuric acid, which comes from burning fuels, from cookintc, from lighting gases, and from decaying organic matter. For this reason, silverware should be kept out of the kitchen, as vegetables and P.MIT I.

After struggling for years to keep my kitchen walls in good condition, draw a numbered slip of paper that bears the name of a song, poem or Btory. The player who draws No. 1 goes to the blackboard and makes the first attempt at illustrating his song, of course without letting the others know what the song is. As soon as he has finished, the players write down their guesses opposite the figure 1, and the ne.xt person takes his turn at the blackboard, and so on. If, for example, a player receives a slip that bears the words "0 Can- ada," he may either attempt to draw a map of Canallfa, a picture of Jack Canuck, or anything that will indi- cate the song. In illustrating ''Where Oh Where Has My Little Dog Gone," the amateur artist might show the tracks of the dog, and at the end of the board a few inches of his tail. Following the custom of such games, when all the songs have been illustrated the players excha-nge cards and mark the guesses as some one reads the correct title for each number. form with the feeling that hi.i first - -- â€". - ,; • I Hres<:ps nnvnns i>tr -i irnnrl <;minlv!"'"'
