DISH COVERS. - The best way to keep flies at bay is to screen all the windows of the house, and never relax vigilance in fighting them while the sultry weather lasts; but to those who can not do this, wire dish covers are a precious boon. They are made of several sizes, adapted to the varying sizes of dishes, and are not costly, and with care will last a long time. WIRE EGG STANDS-for holding eggs while being boiled and afterward for the table. By using this all risk of breaking the eggs when dropping them into the boiling water or fishing them out is avoided. The eggs are all put in and all removed at the same time, insuring uniformity in cooking. When a part are to be cooked longer than the rest, they can be put in first, and those cooked less afterwards, and all removed together.

To cool the shells the stand with eggs can be dipped for an instant in cold water. These stands are made in several sizes, holding from four to twelve eggs.

RIBBED POLISHER. -The ribbed polisher, for polishing shirt bosoms, collars, cuffs, etc., is said to surpass the smooth-faced irons in the ease with which it gives the fine and much desired gloss to the "men's folks" linen.
