But if you will try it I feel sure that you will continue to. A friend of mine has washed with kero- sene and washing powder for two y ears. Her washings are out early, the clothes are white and never smell of kerosene. If the rinsing is faithfully done there will be no odor. I consider it a great comfort to get the washing, es- Decially the steaming, part of it, out of \UIUIU‘I LIUDI‘VUO Shirts should be pinned between two lines. for the air to circulate freely.

Colored clothes, stockings, etc.. are usually washed in the first rinse water. adding hot water necessary to make it the riGht temperature. It is much het- ter to rinse these in clear water. Be careful to hamg them up, so that. they may dry alike and as quickly as pos- sible. A shady, windy place is best for colored clothes. L __A lu(ly I..-\'I. "“J 7-- __ e. In winter a pair of thick white cot- ton gloves are a great. help in hanging out clothes; they protect the hands as well as mittens and are not so clumsy. Flannels should be washed in hot suds, in which a little ammonia has been stirred. Do not rub soap directly upon the flannels. Rinse in clear wa- ter the same temperature and hang where they will dry quickly. pulllng and shaking them several times to pre- vent them fulling. In winter it is best to dry them hy the‘firei. -L-. nrn ‘- ..‘I I After breakfast wash the dishes. sweep the kitchen, wipe off the range and ah the beds. These duties take up but a short time. and it is so much nic- er to finish your washing in a tidy kit- chen. "After the second boilerful is rubbed out rinse all the clothes and put into the blue-water, stir well with the stick, sousing the garments up and down before the final wringing. Shake the clothes before pinning to the line. that there may be no blue stre‘alss. -AL 'l‘he underclothes, etu, should not lioil any longer than the fine ones. so while you are finishing the rubbing of the latter push the boiler to the back of the stove until your fine clothes are all in the first rinse water. Now turn .the second lioilerful into the rubbing tuh, cover closely to keep them warm While you are preparing hreakfast,etc. Rinse out the boiler and wipe it dry. for you will need it no more that day. and Open the windows to let out the steam. I have tried several methods for easy washing, but find none as good as this. Get up an hour earlier than usual. as soon as your fire is ready put your boiler upon the stove with two pails of cold water in it. Into this stir two talilesxmonfulsscantof kerosene,which has been thoroughly mixed with four scant tablespoonfuls of washing pow- der and one cup of boiling water. Now throw in dry, your fine white clothes, table linen. towels. white aprons, pil- low slips. shirts, etc. Push them well with the clothes stick, coser and boil fifteen minutes. using the stick sever- al times while they are boiling. Turn into the tub and put on the rest of the white clothes. underclothing, sheets, personal napkins. which have been pre- viously washed out, etc. Prepare the water for these articles, exactly as the first hoiler full ; some use the water left over from the fine clothes, adding a little more washing powder. kero- sene and cold water. I cannot recom- mend this last, as the clothes will not he so white therefore I think it false economy. While these are boiling you. will have half fini hed rubbing the fine clothes; in fact. no real ruhhing is ne- cessary, as the dirt is so thoroughly loosened that it falls out. 'l’his soaking prowess is unnecessary if the following method is followed,and saves half an hour of Sunday evening work in sorting, making and rubbing soap upon the soiled spots, Thus, near- ly one and one-half hour's time is sav- ed before you begin, in addition to the hard rubbing of the old-time process. I wish to Speak of "blue Monday," says a writer. which is conside 'ed about the hardest day of the week. Many women wash as their mothers and grandmothers did and take no 1: d- vantage of the modern improvements. Set tubs are a great help, saving ten minutes’ time. that is usually spent in carrying up and down stairs the tuhs, boiler. etc. Under these tubs is usual- ly a closet for the disposition of the wringer, boiler, pail, board, etc. A wringer costs something at the outset. but it saves so much time and lameness of the wrists that it soon pays for it- self. In; a large wash it saves at least three-quarters of an hour in the three times that the clothes have to be wrung. The old-fashioned way neces- sitates soaking over night, and this is objectionable to most people. who like to keep the Sabbath in every sense of the word. “HASH-DAY MADE EASY.
