Mix your griddle cakes, waffles,

find the handle very useful to hold

When you buy the childrens' draw
ers for the winter, sew piece Of tape,
about three inches long, across the
bottom Of legs. This will prevent
the drawers from wrinkling up
when the stockings are put on.
Do not forget to give the baby
plenty of water. Milk is food,
and does not take the place of water
as a drink. Plenty Of water be
