Household Hints. 1 Threads and hairs on a carpet are hard to sweep up,' but if the broom is brushed lightly round and round, instead of straight along, the threads will be found in a ball and may be easily picked off the broom.

If the mattress is full length, double in the center lengthwise, tie in three places with, a stout cord, then inserf three bundle handles (such as all housewives ! should keep) and it may be handled very easily.

Many up-to-date vases have a little holder of metal. , Electric waffle Irons of new de sign for use on the breakfast table require no greasing before the batter is poured in. The up-to-date lamp stand is made of p'oychrome, verde or Pompeiian finished metal. An embroidered cover as protec tion for the fingers on the casserole cover is a suggestion for the friend who like up-to-date things for her dining room.' For the gold fish bowl in the liv ing room a novelty is the feeding ring which keeps the food for the fish in one spot. It is made of a square of hollow blown glass. Black 'nnge is a modern touch on portieres, lambrequins and curtains. An old-fashioned' settee gives space to a snill room. Every candle end should be saved and made into candles again.

A long-handled scrubbing brush is one of the most labor-saving of household devices. Broom Economy. Experiments In broom making have produced one which outlasts the ordinary variety by another life time, because of certain provisions of its manufacture. The straws are all carefully selected, being even all the way through, which is a most essential quality to watch for always in selecting a broom. Cheap grades are usually furnished, with uneven, rough looking straws inside, even if the outside looks substan tial. By pushing the best ones aside and investigating the inside ones, the purchaser may discover the qual ity of the broom she is about to buy. This broom has a steel con struction, instead of the old' wire variety, which enables one to rip open the seams which bind the straws together, one by one, as the broom wears down, thus adding con siderable length to them. When the straws are kept evenly trimmed, and are thus allowed additional length to make up for the part worn away, they gain longer durability than for merly was possible. A simple broom holder, which may be purchased for about 10 cents is of value in preserving the life of any broom. It is composed of three short bent steel pieces, through which the handle is slipped and held firmly in place. Standing a broom on end will ruin the finest variety, but hanging it when not in use, will do much to preserve the cheapest Buying the best quality, however, is real economy in broom investment for with proper care these will out last several inferior ones.
