BALM FOR THE DISHWASHER
According to Writer, Happy Is the
Man Allowed to Help in Cleansing
the Table Utensils.
We have never held with those who
think elIshwasihing a dreary and sor
(lid task, according to Collier's. Give
us plenty of hot water, plenty of
Some abrasive sol) andl] a couiple of
clean cloths and we will tackle the
debris of the evening meal with keen
enJoymiient. After a long day at the
office it is delightful to steep one's
hands in hot dishwater (which acts.
as an excellent febrifuge for the
brain. and a tonic for weariness of
the body) and pass through the purl
fying and homely gestures of ablu
tioni and wiping. These simple tasks
of the hand always induce a pleasant
and . domestle train of thought. We
know one poet, ainl not such a had
poet eIther, who always says he can
writo his best lyrIes after a bout with
the evening dishes. And no ianticu
rlst ever gives so pink and charming
a glow to the hands as a half-hour
with the (iShpan.
Ilow many husbands, we wonder,
have learned the first rule of the dish
wnashee's technique? You must have
plenty of hot water, but always use
cold] water oi any utensils where eggs
have been broken. Ient hardens the
yolk, and bolling water poured uipon
an egg-smn eared plate will so solidify
and1 solder tle juices that it will take
sandimper to remove them.
If any husband should ever protcst
agailst being asked to wash the
dishes let his wIfe refer him to II
Kings, 21 :13.
