WILLIAM SELLECK Mrs. Sclleck, this is a marvelous idea. I shudder when look at my own address book. From now on I will follow your hint religiously. HELOISE DEAR HELOISE: When washing dishes, I always keep a vegetable brush handy.

It is the perfect tool for cleaning the raised designs found on some dishes and pans. I have discovered that a vegetable brush also works well for cleaning the grooves in a rubber sink drainboard. MRS. HAROLD KRESEN DEAR HELOISE: I have two young daughters who delight in bringing mommy flowers (be it weeds or otherwise). I keep a bud vase on the corner of my sink, into which I place these little gems.

When faced with a sink full of dirty dishes, a glance to that corner always lifts my spirits and makes even all those tedious jobs such as dishes, worthwhile. It certainly brightens my day. BETTY SOLOMON DEAR HELOISE: That daughter-in-law in a distant city who writes often and subs for a "penless son" surely deserves this hint: Go to the post office and buy a role of five cent stamps and a little plastic stamp holder they sell for a nickel. Send one to the faithful letter writer as a. reminder of your appreciation.

ROSS Ross, your hint is one that ALL parents should heed. I got so lonesome to hear from my son more often that I sent him self-addressed stamped envelopes. It helped some. HELOISE DEAR HELOISE: Here is something that has saved me much time: I have two dust mops one is for the floors; the other I use on all my doors, cornice boards and tops of window mouldings. It saves an awful lot of climbing on step-ladders to dust the tops of doors and the door itself.

MARTHA RUMPF DEAR HELOISE: When wo are traveling by car our family plays a game called We hunt the letters of the alphabet in their order on signs along the road. The one who finds them all first is the winner. It's fun. Try it. Of course, the driver doesn't get to play because he has to watch the road.
