HOW TO ECONOMIC.
Never Buy Cheap Things Nor Things Thsa
Are Not Really Needed.

Never Buy Cheap Things Nor Things Tha1
Are Not Really Needed
There is no falser economy than to
buy inferior goods, and this rule holds
good for food as well as for
clothes A good material looks well
TO the end, and can be washed or
cleaned and made up again in various
ways. 1t is better to have one we'll
made dress of good material than two
or three badly-made of poor stuff,
which will look shabby and untidY
after wearing once or twice. When
busting or sweeping an apron should
always be worn, and for any very dirty
work it is good plan to change tho
dress, and wear an old one kept entire
ly for that purpose.
In household matters there are hum
dreds of ways in which economy can be
practiced. For instance, in any room
that is much used a rug or strip of car
pet laid down near the door, where the
most wear comes, will save the carpet
and make it last twice as long.
White tablecloths should always hsvo
table napkins spread at the end where
the carving goes on, so that in case Of
any gravy being split only the napkins
need be washed instead of the entire
cloth.
In buying food always choose tho
best. Inferior meat and poor groceries
are really no cheaper in the end. for the
small amount saved by purchasing
them is often expended twice over in
paying doctors bills and buying medi-
cine to cure ills, many of which arc
caused by nothing but badly cooked,
inferior and indigestible food.
Good cooking is a great help to econ
omy, and is an art which should be
more cultivated than it is, for TO know
how to make the best of everything and
the most TASTY way of using up all kinds
of scraps Is BY no means to be despised.
Never buy anything that is not really
needed just because you see it m a shop
and it happens to be cheap. In buying
groceries it is far more economical to
buy fairly large quantities and store
them than to buy small quantities
whenever needed. Eggs can be bought
in the summer when they are cheap
and stored for winter use, and spices,
rice, oatmeal, dried fruits, peas, can
dies, etc, can be kept for long time IL
properly stored. Keep currants and
raisins and other dried fruits in jars or
tins, with covers, where flies will not
be able to get to them. Tea and coffee
should be stored in tin boxes or Jars
with tightly fitting lids so that the air
is quite excluded.
A very economical plan, more fire.
quently followed abroad than in Eng
land, is to have stock-pOt into which
all odd bits of meat and bone, veg
etables, and other odds and ends ara
put, to be used for making soup. AL
pieces of bread should be kept, made
crisp in the oven. powdered, and kept
in tin ready for frying. Pieces Of
cheese, too dry for eating. can be pow
dered and used for havoring macaron1
and other dishes to which cheese is an
There are numberless ways in which
a careful housewife can save money
without making any appreciable dif-
ference in the comfort and well being
of the inmates of the house, and it is q
curious fact that the best cooks are

HINTS ABOUT NAPEaY.

SIX DAMAsK tablecloths, with nap
kins to match, are sufficient supply for
ordinary use, as set of napkins may
be allowed to two tablecloths, if the
family is small.
A PRETTY idea for room where the
colors will harmonic is to have tho
buffet cloth, table center, tray cloth
and carver's cloth all of pale pink or
ecru linen, embroidered with white.
BUFFET cloths, which are included in
the list of table linen, are usually made
of plain linen, hemstitched and dec
GRATED with any kind of embroidery
that will stand washing.
An economical housekeeper who has
some fine damask tablecloths that are
beginning to wear out may convert
them into tray cloths by cutting out
the best parts, hemming them and fin
ishing with torchon lace.
The unbleached will prove much
more durable, as the chemicals used to
whiten the damask injure it in soma
degree. The faint yellow tint Of this
fax is not objectionable, and a very
few visits to the laundry will bleach it
snowy white.
TRAY cloths and carvers' cloth not
only look well on the table, but are
genuine saving in the wear and tear Of
frequent washings, as they catch many
a splash of gravy or drop of coffee
which otherwise would soil the fair lin
en- tablecloth.

Just as the luclSless horseman ap-

dramatic sweep of his hand, rushed

"Stop!"
The result was disastrous. The

ate for consideration, Senator Call ap-
pears to be able TO enter upon its dis
cussion with manifest understanding
and appreciation of the matter in gen.
eral and in detail. He has read so many
books, upon so many subjects, and his
memory is so clear and active, that he
is probably one of the most ready de-
baters in the congress, and one of the
most instructive rs well as entertain
ing speakers. He is a working senator,
as will be seen by the fact that he is a
member OF six important committees
appropriations, fisheries, mines and
mining, revision of the laws, territories
and chairman of the committee on pat
ents. You may well believe that man
who attends to his duties on all of those
committees is a busy man and work
ing statesman.
Senator Jacob II. Gallinger, OF New
Hampshire, is one of the men of whom
you will often hear during the delibera-
tons of the Fifty-fourth congress. He
succeeded Henry W. Blair, author of
the Blair educational bill. He
had formerly been q member of the
house of representatives and is an ex-
perienced legislator. He is a very
strong partisan, but personally popular
even with senator's on the other side of
the senate chamber. He will be chair
man of the committee on manufactures.
He is also a member of the committees
on pensions, District of Columbia, cpl
demic diseases and transportation
routes. He is ready debater and al
ways appears to be anxious to say some
thing or do something to exaspera$e
his political adversaries. You will
often hear of him during the next long
session of congress. He is about five
feet six inches tall, bald headed, with a
big mustache, heavy eye brows and
strong chin. He is agile and nervous
IN action and speech, and withal, a
good story teller and popular gentle
man. SMITH d. Fry.
