FOR THE HOUSEWIFE.
Chamois leather gloves should be mended with fine wool Instead of cotton. This does not tear the leather so easily. Potatoes can be prevented from going brown in the cooking if a tablespoonful of vinegar, is put in the water In which they are boiled. Shoes that are damp will polish if a little methylated spirits is added to the blacking. Milk which is to be served with coffee should not be boiled, but merely heated. When boiled it takes away a little of the flavour of tne coffee.
