A penny saved is

L is well to remember that if
B you save a cent on a purchase
q of > cents or more you are saving
not only a cent, but 20 per cent,
which seems more worth While. When
using a dozen eggs, as happens in big
families often, in others on occasions,
try scraping out the eggshellS with
spoon. lis VIII give you the amount
of one egg and is we'll worth saving,
especially while eggs are so very high.
When eggs are cheap they should be
put down for the winter. Packed in
water glass, they are just as good for
any form Of baking and I'll keep a
year if properly done. \ quart of wa
ter glass added to twelve quarts Of
boiled and cooled water put into large
stone crooks after the eggs are placed
will keep them perfectly. The eggs
should of course be perfectly fresh
and great care taken not to crack
them. Cover the jar and keep in a
cool place.
One of the common wastes in most
homes is the unscraped mixing bowl.
Spatulas may now be bought at the
ten cent counter, and a few turns
with a spatula will scrape out a dish,
often saving the amount of an indi-
vidual cake or gem or biscuit. If round
bOttOmed mixing bowls are used for
the dough mixtures. the scraping proc
ess will be much shortened, as the
spatula, being flexible, will take VI
every bit of the dough.
When apples are used if the parirgs
are saved and boiled With a little wa
ter, then the water added to equal
quantities of sugar and boiled, q glass
of jelly or two. which will be fresh
