EFFICIENT

~Systematizing the HouseWork
By HENRIETTA d. GRAuEL

- Mrs. Young still had to keep to her arm chair IN account of her
sprained ankle and her Neghbor had run in to put her kitchen to

Instead of picking up the dishes promiscuously, INT carrying hem

The jelly dish looked unused; so she empted its contents inoa clean

The salt shakers needed to be reflled and the flower vase straight

When this was done, instead of washing the dishes, she made the
eat and tidy, and brought in the broom to sweep.

IRON AND GOLD PRODUCTION
IN Year Of 1911 27,s7s,2s2,os4 Tons Of
Metals Mined In U. 8. Valued
at $7~se,o25,o4o.

The total production of all metals
10 the United States In 1911 was al
s7S. 49, ,094 tons, valued at $7sS. 1885,
o46. In the volume of Mineral Re-
sources" published by the United
States geological survey, 10 q short
chapter by H. D. McCaskey that SON
tairs a unique table in which, for the
cake of comparison. the production OF
all metals is reduced to short tons.
Thus, pig iron, with a production from
both domestic and imported ores Of
ee,04S,1G short tons, valued at 1921
Si4,624, Is contrasted with platinum,
the production of which was less than
a ton (0.999 toni, valued ct $1.308..
$50, and gold. with q production OF
iso, 704 tons, valued at STA ,9S1, $50. E
In the several mining industries
various units are commonly employed
which do not admit of convenient
comparison. For instance. the pro-
duction OF anthracite coal Is always
stated by the producers in long tons,
tut that OF bituminous coal is given
In short tons. Again, the flask" (7b
pounds) Is the customary unit for the
measurement Of quicksilver, except
where the metric ton is used. The
Troy ounce is used for measuring the
precious metals.
AS shown by the tables in this re-
port, however. the value Of the total
production for 1911 was $50, 1882 $50
less than that for 1910.
Another table gives the production
Of domestic crude metallic ores, and
this, together with imports Of foreign
supplies treated in domestic metal
production. shows the sources from
which these metals are derived. The
total production OF all ores In 1911
was los ,25S.492 short tons.

SANDWICHES CALL FOR CAHc
Hostess Should Make Every Attempt
70 Master Ar, for the satisfsor
tIon Il VIII Give

The hostess who has mastered the
art Of making good sandwiches has
gone far toward mastering the art Of
entertaining, for any social gathering
where refreshments are served lacks
distinction unless 1t offers at least
one kind of sandwich a little better
than any other sandwich served at
a similar entertainment
Sandwiches should be good to look
at and good 70 taste. Both requisites
demand that all materials used In
makins them should be fresh. care
fully prepared and OF the best quality,
Cress. lettuce and n other sort OF
green for sandwich filling should be
carefully cleaned and crisped on Ice
for several hours before using. Meat
should be freshly cooked and freed
from all fat, gristle and grease. Bread
should be fresh. but Arm. and thinly
cut. Gutter should be Of Just the
Gre my consistency to make It spread
easily. not SO hard as to be lumpy nor
30 soft as to be oily.
Cutters in various fancy shapes
ohoufo We d part Vi every iSH
makers outfit. Hearts and triangles.
circles and diamonds are among the
most effective shapes. When fancy
cutters are not used the sandwich
should be pressed firmly together. the
crusts nicely trimmed. and the square
cut either In long, thin strips or
c-agonally across to make two triangle
shaped sandwiches.
Cream buffers OF various sorts help
give sandwiches the distinctive tastes
which whet the appetite and make
every n wonder what the sandwich
il made OF. To make these buffers
cream ordinary butter and mix with ..
either finely chopped olives, water
cress or parsley. finely grated horse
radish or cheese. or a bit of anchovy
or other hsh paste. Combine these
various buffers with filings which
blend with them in favor and the re-
suit II always satisfactory.

can be made with either square or high
neck and the tucked guimpe can be-
finished with a little frill Of lace at the
neck or with a standing collar and both
can be made with either long or short

the materials most used for guimpes and
there is nothing better for trimming than
the German Val lace hat lasts as long as
the material itself. Hand work is always
pretty and dainty and between the groups
of tucks could be used tiny little vines
embroidered on the material. There are
only shoulder and under-arm seams and
both guimpes are closed at the back with
buttons and button-holes.
