SORTING THE LINEN.
♦ —, I once heard a woman lamenting that she had no place in which to sort her linen. The- closet was in a passage, and, as she could not have a table there, she was j forced to sort the wash on the nearest bed, and then carry it out, piece by piece, to the closet. " Why don't you have a hinged shelf?" I said. I She had never heard of such a thing, I but when 1 told her about it she thought ! it quite delightful. j A wide, thin board is hinged on to the ; lowest shelf of the closet, just as a leaf !is hinged on to a kitchen table. When ! the leaf is not in use, H goes down flat; but, when yon want to sort the wash, you turn up the flap, pull out a couple of supports underneath it, and-do whatover you like on this convenient little table.
