is advisable to have
'ii Ksils in one's kitchen.
An iron kettle is often needed and an
iron spider is almost indispensable.
When purchasing iron utensils be sure
to obtain only those which are very
smooth, else they cannot be used, for
they give a metalic taste to anything
cooked in them. To overcome this
rub them well with unsalted fat and
then heat thoroughly. Then wash with
strong soap suds, rinse and repeat the
greasing. Do this several times until
the trouble is removed. Flat bot
tomed kettles and pans are the easiest
to clean.
Porcelain steamers and colanders
should be used instead of those made
of tin. Purchase only the better
knives and forks and spoons for the
kitchen because they last longer and
good knives sharpen better. Follow
ing is a list of the things necessary
for the kitchen:
Two kettles, two spiders, three por
celain basins, two porcelain spoons,
three wooden spoons, one kitchen
knife, one paring knife, one colander,
one steamer, one teakettle, one tea
pot, one coffeepot, two stirring bowls,
one sieve, one measuring cup, one
dipper, two 8-quart pails, one wash
basin, two kettle covers, one double
boiler, one match safe, one soap dish,
one wire dish cloth, one potato masher,
one rolling pin, one egg beater, bak
ing pans and muffin dishes.
Many other things may seem abso
lutely necessary but with a plittle plan
ning one can get along very nicely
with the above list, besides it will be
found that to increase the list one
must also increase one's duties, Wait
with further additions until they are
found to be needed.
Healing Properties of Water
There is no remedy of such general
application and none so easily ob
tained as water, and yet nine persons
out of ten will pass it by in an emer
gency to seek for something of less
efficacy. There are but few cases of
illness where water should not oc
cupy the highest place as a remedial
agent.
A strip of flannel or a napkin folded
lengthwise and wrung out of hot wa-.
ter and applied around the neck of a
child who has croup, will usually bring
relief in a few minutes. A towel fold
ed several times, then quickly wrung
out of hot water and immediately ap
plied over the seat of the pain In
toothache or neuralgia will afford
prompt relief. This treatment In colic
works like magic. Cases on- record
having resisted other treatment for
hours, have yielded to this treatment
in ten minutes. Pieces of cotton bat
ting dipped in hot water, then applied
to old sores and new cuts, brtuses, and
sprains is the treatment now gener
ally adopted in hospitals. Hot water
taken freely a half hour before bed
time is an excellent cathartic in the.
case of constipation, while it has a
most soothing effect on the stomach
and bowels. This treatment continued
for a few months, together with prop
er attention to diet, will alleviate mild
cases 'of dyspepslo. National Magazine.
