her his partner. What will happen.s a friend asked him at the time, when this daughter of yours marries?' "Nothing more than did when her doctor sister took a husband" he an- swered. "Dr. Mary has four children or her own and an excellent practice, and my girl Margaret will be able to combine her domestic and business career equally cleverly, I do not doubt" And 1t seems not altogether improbable that she will.
 W7l ANY ways have been suggested NI| for disgusting the unpleasant S taste of castor or cod liver oil.
 An excellent one seen recent ly recommended the use of ice before the dose is given. A colorless, odor- less variety of the oil is obtained and the dose of this is covered with orange juice. Before the medicine is given the patient chills his mouth thorough- ly by chewing cracked ice. The medi- cine may then be given without leaving an oily taste. By chilling the mouth first the oil will not leave an oily films which Is responsible for the tenacity of the unpleasant taste.

 ways on the outlook for cheap
 but nutritious fare Now,
 cheese and bread with milh are the cheapest fare, and when com- bined with fat they form staple diet Fish and sereals should be served to- gether, for the one balances the other, and rabbits and poultry are increased in nourishing properties when cereals are added. Variety is one of the most important points to be considered. The provision of sufficient quantity, along with enough nutr1ment must be carefully taken into account, for sometimes, when one kind of food ia merely substituted for another value is sacrificed to cheapness or to sim- plicity in preparation. Cereals ought to be much better understood than they are, and far more care and at- tention should be given to their prep. aration. Barley is excellent if it il slowly cooked and served with cream or even milk, and stewed fruit or jam makes it into a delicious pud- ding. Peas will shortly be within the reach of the average buyer. Rabbit in itself is not so rich in nutriment as some other flesh food, but with the addition of barley it is turned in- to a very substantial dish. Rice is just the right complement of mack erel. for the fat of the fish renders it digestible and supplies the necessary amount of nutriment.
 ") HE particular housekeeper is
 now contemplating the in. ~ creasing use of the duster,
 The automobile comes with the premise of good things, but with it comes also the constant presence of dust on the dark mahogany tables. and gritty feeling around the edges of our books. In these latter days, when we have learned, by reason of artificial heat in winter and porches opening out of bed room and living room in summer, to live constantly and more or less strenuously all over the house, the duster has become Q most important factor. We find that everything in the house must be dust ed once-even twice-each day. There may be cloth dusters and feather dusters, fiannels dusters and dust less dusters," but there can never be too many dusters. The shops keep pace with this demand. In the gift shops we find dusters of gay colored cheesecloth, pink, blue, yellow and lavender. Some have dainty cross- stitched borders and some have ini- tials delicately embroidered upon the corners. There may also be found a useful duster of coarse fiannelette, with another piece of cloth stitched on in the center. in the shape of a hand, into which the hand may be slipped as a protection from eN duat
