Your call for help from tho lady frlonds of tho E.utMEn, Induces mo to send you a fow stray thoughts ns they took slmpo whilo dishwashing this morning and dishwashing shall bo n part of my thorn?, for pcoplo should wrlto of what thoy best know, nnd u long apprenticeship Ins niado it ponslblo for mo lo ho woll versed In tho nrt. 1 tun glad to seo that thero Is n growing tendency towards a moru domestic education In worn on tho last fow years, ns will bo seen In tho accounts of numerous schools In cities whoro cooking Is taught as ono of tho nrts. Such schools aro a neces sity nmong wealthy people, or those who keep sorvants, ns It is not easy for girls to got n practical knowledgo of housekeeping under theso circum stances. In foreign countries young ladles of the higher classes nnd nobility spend months at 11 timo In families whore they nro taught by dally lessons tho routine of house keeplntr, p'lyliijr a largo price for get ting thlo practical knowledgo that Is Impossible to gut In thu pnruital home, and they aro proud of being accomplished in this mnttcr. but wu regrot to say that not many American girls aro proud of knowing how to work, but to tho contrary prldo them selves upon "never having cooked u meal In tholr lives." Our young inon aro fast learning wisdom finding that a pretty faco and showy accomplish ments do not make up for 11 lack of houBowlfcly qualities. Thero aro dis agreeable douills connected with tho cooking department that detracts from tho agrccablo part so as to glvo n distaste for tho whole. Dishwash ing is tho first on tho list of disagree ables. To preparo n good meal, spread It nlcoly nud sen friends enjoy eating it, is tho pleasant part, but, whon hungor is satisfied to bo obliged to got up from tho table, "elenr It ofT," put away tho remains nud waiih tho dishes, pots and kettle Is tho un pleasant part. A little thought nud cn'ro may mako oven this u llttlo less of u drudgery. I find n llttlo brush, intulo by tying 11 few bunches of tho broom together will grjntly assist In tho work, Having tho hands from being too much In tho hot, soapy water, which is calculated to harden nnd stiffen them to an un comfortable degree. A larger brus.li made of splints is admirable for scrubbing out kottlcs and fry-puns whoro tho food Is burnod on to theso vessels. Tho cups, taucors nnd silver wuro ohould bo first put Into tho dish- pan with hot water nnd n llttlo Hoap, then (lie plates or other dhhos, hav ing a dish or board with somo brick handy for scouring tho knives. If dono ovory meal, thoy will need only 11 slight polishing. Tho handles of knives should novcrbo put Into hot watoi,orllo In tho dlsh-pan, ns tho handles aro apt to goi loose. Every housokcopor, howovcr neat, will find thnt after n timo tho dishes will get yellow and ntalned in croascs whoro tho dish-towel cannot couvenioiitly reach. Wo havo found by porsonnl experiments n, way toinnko thorn look us fresh and bright as when they camo from tho store. Homo day when you want to havo n big cloaning-up, nud want a kettle of btrong Huds to ttfio will bo tho timo to try our way. I'llo nil tho dishes you conveniently can into tho wabh-boller, till It full of water enough to cover thorn, thon put In hnlfn papor of washing powder, lot It boll 11 fow moments, then tako nut. tho dishes, pour cold water on thorn, and wipe.

If ono tnlmn tho troublo to hatch num bers of tho llttlo chicks, it Is mtrely worth tho whilo to watch them closely nntlfsuu what tho matter Is if thoy droop and die. Thero aro many remedies which aro effectual, but ovory beglnnor should bo careful to UhO somo ono ns a precaution, if thero nro no vermin in his opinion. A simple and cheap remedy is u small piece of tobacco stowed in n llttlo lard, and rubbod with care on tho head and throat. Also rub it on tho head, (luff and under tho wings of tho mother hen. It Is a good proventatlvo and n euro oradlcator. Watch well for llco when you seo your chicks hanging their heads, drooping and dying, or you will Boon havo none to caro for.
