Many Ways by Which Money and Ia.
Dor May Be Saved---seck to ELM

and Motions.

Why II is that when one buys q
new cooking utensil or tool to be used
about the home, there is always listed
the many ways one may use 1t? Can
it be true we women can't find out
anything for ourselves?
Ii almost seems true when one sees
the endless number of cooking dishes
In some kitchens.
One day ! overheard very capable
housewife lamentiDg the lack of a
ham boiler. She had been using an
old-fashioned round kettle, far too
small, and now whole ham was
more than she could manage. knew
she had one Of those oblong roasting
pans. and asked her why she did not
use 1t as ham boiler. She said she
never thought to use It on top of the
stove
She was surprised to find that 1t
did Its work In roasting fowl, lamb
and veal equally as well on top Of
the stove as In the oven, thus saving
pulling up the fire II the oven is not
hot.
No wonder a firm Ia now advertis-
Ing roasting pan TO be used on top
OF the stove as well as In the oven"
Now. why do we women have to be
told these things?
The heating of all ovens Ia always

many do you see thermometer and
If so perhaps the housewife will say:
"Oh, i never use it She refuses to
make use Of an exact science With
an accurate thermometer to register
the oven heat, there is no excuse for
fallen cakes and burned food.
The American housewife boils and
then again boils her food, when one
of the up-to-date square cookers would

Ing and fuel. But she will not use It.
When 1t is not steaming It's shelves

Then there lie the wire dish drainer.

 eredDiscouragng; Still Hold Hopes of Carranza Coming in; Deliberations Are to Be Secret

NIAGARA FALLS, May 20.-Mark- ing new era in the relations of nations of the western hemisphere delegates from the United States and Mexico and the mediators from the thre great South American republics today formally opened the mediation conference with which they hope to bring peace to Mexico.
 Confidence in an amicable settle ment not only of the difficulties which have arisen between the United States and the Huerta government but in the ultimate pacificauon of all Mex ico through the avenues Of diplomacy. was reflected tonight by the mediat- ors These proceedings today were chiefly concerned with preliminary or ganiationz. The deliberations, it was made known, shall be secret
 A disported disp&ch from Meico City to the effect that Huerta was ready to retire. although contradicted by corrected dispatches which stated hat he lad given delegates no in- structions to offer his resi- gnauon, was received with interest It is stated that error in transmission had given rise to the first statement
 Authentic adyices through diplomat ic sources several days ago stated that the Mexican commissioners were clothed with full power to act and had been authorized to agree to the elimination of Huerta if necessary to bring about a settlement of their coun- try's internal and international troub- les. This last step it was said, was to be taken only after 1t was apparent to the commissioners that there was no hope for settlement on any other basis.
 It is indicated in the statement made here that if announcement of willingness 10 retire comes from Huerta in the near future it will be welcomed as making more remote any possibility of the resumption of hos tuiues between the United States and Mexico IL is argued also that with Huerta the mediators might entertain hope that Carranza would be brought into the conference, or become a party Go such agreement as reached
