Efficiency for housewife.

One woman has found that an aid
to quick work in cooking with the gas
stove Is to have the materials COM
monty used close at hand. For this
end, she uses the extension on the
right side o. uer gas range.
Upon this she has a circular as
bestor mat, which holds three jelly
glasses with metal covers. one for
flour, one for sugar, one for salt. each
labeled. There is also tin shaker
filled with paprika. These serve for
the flavoring for cream sauce, or
gravy thickening and flovoring.

shape, is of white agate, so as to be
washed after each meal. On this area

and most valued Of all the utensils,

hand in cooking. turning omelets. or

time is gained by this bit Of system

Things of Interest That
Women Are Doing.
Why Not Can the Waste?

Fruit and vegetables worth thous-
ands of dollars went 10 waste on many
farms I'm oklahoma last year. This is
often one Of the big leaks on the
farm, and fortunately 1t can be easily
remedicd with a little foresight and
caution. Many farmers wives make
up their meals for the family entirely
out Of tim cans Of fruits and vegetables
purchased at tho grocery store and
this contributes very materially to the
high cost Of living All of this ma
terial is grown on the farm and the
surplus that cannot be consumed dur
ing the growing season Is often left
In the field to rot.
A home canning outfit that Will
save all this waste can be purchased
very reasonably 1t seems strange
that so many women think canning
difficult for II is really one OF the
simplest Of household operations,
needing but little more care than the
making OF apple sauce, Then fruit
and vegetables canned at home are 80
much nicer than any OF those that
are put up by factories. and besides
there Is so much satisfaction in
knowing that the fruit and vegetables
you use are perfectly clean and
wholesome.

Don't PrCsCribc.

Willingness to prescribe for one an
other is usually in proportion to ig-
norance. A sick, and especially a suf-
fering person, is so anxious for relief
that no will try anything his friends
suggest, often to his own permanent
sorrow. The only advice which it Is
entirely safe to follow is the advice an
old Irishman used to give for pains
and aches of all kinds: "Cover your
chist and stummick with a bit of new
red flannel" The heat given by flan-
mel is never dangerous; In winter It
affords warmth; IN summer it pre-
vents chill from perspirinG.
Ordinarily hot tub bath is harm
less; but there are occasions when the
hot bath may bring on hemorrhage.
Salt water Is the best and safest kind
of gargle for sore throats, but to ad-
wise shifting salt water to relieve a
cold in the head may be entirely
wrong-for If the secretions from the
nose are, through the act of shifting,
drawn into the ears, trouble may re-
suit. Better use a nasal douche for
the nose bath. Doctor bills are eX-
pensive, but mistakes are more so.

Pure Baking Soda Useful.

The housekeeper Will find pure bak-
ing soda Of great use in the household
and should always have a supply on
hand.
Used with cream or tartar 1t makes
an excellent baking powder. A pinch
of soda added to boiling green vege-
tables improves their flavor and helps
TO preserve their green color. A little
soda added to beans when cooking
helps to soften their fibrous coats and
makes them soft and sweet. A pinch
added to tomatoes or any acid vege-
table makes them more digestible to
the ma ajority of persons.
