"Young Wife" asks me how she can
make of dish washing anything but
drudgery. She says: "It is all well
enough while I am at work on the glass
and chinaware, but when I get around
to the pots and pans, dishwater and
dish cloth both dirty and greasy, I de
test the sight of the cooking vessels,
and can hardly bear to touch them."
Well, and I think I should, too. It
is much better to have our pretty dishes
last and it is easy enough to do so, if
we plan aright. Here is a plan which
many good housekeepers not only en
dorse, but practice daily. While pre
paring your materials before cooking,
wash every pan, cup, vessel or other
uten3il used as soon as done with it,
and put it at once into its place. There
is always RLnoment of leisure ' 'tween
whiles" that can be used for this workT
and a pan of water should be always
at hand for such moments. As fast
as a pot, pan or other utenail is emp
tied, proceed at once to wash and put
it in its place. When dishing up the
meal, as fast 'as the vessel is emptied,
wash and put away. Cooking things
wash much easlor if attended, to at
once on emptying. If this is done,
there will be but very few, if any,
things to clutter up the cook table and
sink, and the room will look much
nicer for it. When the victuals are in
their dishes, ready to serve, ft will
take'Mt a moment to-'put your dish
cloth into' clean water to soak while
the table IS occupied by the family.
When the meal is finished, the dishes
should be gathered up, all crumbs and
leavings scraped into a suitable recep
tacle, whatever scrap of food remains
on the dishes should be removed to
clean, smaller dishes and set aside for
future use, and the dishes stacked into
a large, deep pan for washing. There
should be two pans one to hold the
dishwater and one into which the
dishes should be set when washed
unless one has a sink, which can be
used for draining them. All shelves
should be wiped off, and the di3h cloth
and towel used for the dishes should be
clean, and at hand. Having no dirty
cooking vessels setting about, you can
at once attend to 'the dishes. Many
housekeepers use no soap, .depending on
the hot water and clean cloths entirely
and the dishes will be perfectly clean,
if tliis is attended to. others prefer to
use soap powder. whle still others
prefer the soap itself. The objection
to soap powder is that it removes the
gilt, but enough to do this Should not
be used. Soap is apt to leave a film
on the di3hes, if used in excess, or if
poor soap is used. Soft, rain water is
best, but if the water is hard, it can
be broken by a little of one or other
good soap powders, of which there are
many on the market. Hard water will
leave the cloths stiff -and dark, or

Flat Foot '
A correspondent asits the meaning of
the term "Plat-Foot" as applied to ai
ments of the foot. In answer i give
atVand? S frm a medlcal maBln
"A slight idea of tlm rmrr ,..,.
mical foot will give a better under
standing of the sublect in miratimi i..
the foot of the infant and the savage
tne line of the great toe prolonged
backward passes through the renter
of the heel. This line, known as
Meyers line, indicates Nature's posi
tion of the great toe. and it is in this
position that the muscle3 controlling
it were meant to keep it. In the civ,.
nzeu loot this position rarely if ever
exists. In most cases a line drawn
through the center of the great toe
will be as far outside the border of the
heel as it should be iii3ide. This dis
placement o: tne great toe cripples a
very important muscle, which removes
one of the main supports of the inner
border of the loot, thus predisposing
the foot to roll over inwardly. Now,
the weight-bearing surface of the foot
should be distributed evenly on the out
side border, and this condition would
exist with us as it does with the infant
and the savage if the muscles of the
inside border were as Nature intended
them to be. Badly shaped, shoes for
the most part, too much standing and
walking on polished floors and other
unyielding surfaces, general weakness
of the system, as well as too great
weight for the ruined muscles of, the
feet to support, are among the causes
which change the weight-bearing sur
face to the inner border, thereby com
pelling the person so afflicted to walk
with the toes all turned out to main
tain balance, and on the inner border
of the foot in an endeavor to find sup
port. - "This condition, after a certain
length of time, causes a breaking down
of the foot that arched portion be
tween the sole and the heel, the height
of which is the pride of the blue
blooded. This arch drops down and
rests on the surface, the same as the
sole and heel. The muscles to prevent
this condition having been rendered
useless by the' displacement of the
great toe, this result under the proper
circumstances is inevitable. Sharp
pains ensue and dart through this once
arched portion; sometimes they make
themselves felt in the heel or ball of
the foot, or around the ankle. At times
they seem to paralyze the entire foot.
When they are very bad they shoot up
the inner side of the leg to the knee
excruciating pains, whose continual
presence compel completo rest for tem
porary ease. Walking wun uie weit'i
on the outer border of the foot affords
some relief, but unless the cause is im
mediately remedied the continued use
of the foot under adverse circum
stances means indescribable tortures
and final disablement and the physi
cian. Usually, the pain is not in pro
portion to the deformity; one may
have but a slight case of flat-foot at
tended with pains that would seeming
ly indicate an incurable state. Plat
foot, like other afflictions, is easier
prevented thah-.cured. Let the parents
commence with the child, that its feet
may be correctly trained as wen
brain: let those of reasoning ability
seek protection before necessity coin
Dels attention. Choose footwear that
fits and in which the weight-bearing
surface is evenly distributed on clu
border of the foot.".

common salt, then, on potatoes and all
so-called 'green' vegetable, which
abound in this material. From a sci
entific standpoint one need not ue salt
on rice, but with potatoes, it forms a
most friendly combination. The min
eral matter, which is frequently over
looked In our daily rations, Is con
cerned in giving solidity to our bonoa,
tissues and muscles. It Is contained.
In greater or less quantities in green
vegetables, fruits and cereals. For
this reason green vegetables are served
with meats and articles rich In nitro
gen but poor in desirable mineral salts.
Wheat, almost a perfect food for many,
lacks a little fat; hence, we butter our
bread, and serve cream instead of
milk with rolled wheat. Oats are rich
in fat, and Is much more friendly when
served with milk. Rice, almost a pure
starch, when served alone is a fat and
heat producer; with milk it gives a,
perfect and easily digested ration.
As each individual must, to sustain
life, eat every year half a ton of cooked
food, a large proportion of the health,
hence the comfort and happiness of tho
home, comes from the dining room
and kitchen. One can see at a glance
y.nxir tmnnrhmt lfc is that our women
should be educated along"practical lines
as well as the theoretic ana arusiic.
They should be able to put their chem
istry into practice both in the kitchen
and in the laundry; their physiology in
the selection and cooking of foods;
and their lessons in fine arts in the
harmony of foods as well as the com
bination of colors in furniture. Mis
tresses at the mercy of cooks frequent

but unfriendly combinations as well.
