A Laundry Hint.
In lining a clothes basket, inste:.
of using paper, which sometimes
marks the clothes when they are wet,
use a piece of white table oilcloth.
Sew tapes to the four corners of the
oilcloth and tie in place.
Cleaning Coil i:. d Springs.
ed springs can be cleaned thor-
oughly by using an ordinary bottle
brush with a handle about ten iauches
long. This brush will fit into every
coal and wire separately as well as
removing all dust from bands which
hold the coils in place.
