Few successes are won by accident.
Most OF them are earned by earnest,
careful work. No one need feel dis
couraged because success does not
come Immediately, because It seldom
m that way. Success has to be
coaxed just a little, even by the most
prosperous people. And once earned
il has to be guarded by the same
watchful care by which il was gained.
But II is worth while, because there is
a satisfaction that comes with success
that pays for all the efforts made.
American Falls press. [volume] (American Falls, Idaho) 1907-1937, 1917-09-28

There Is nothing which makes suc-
cess so certain as saving habits and
industry. Whatever your work may
be, keep at it. Don't get discouraged
and quit trying because you make mis-
takes. Everybody makes mistakes,
and the wise ones profit by them.
Courage and cOnstaney are necessary
TO success everywhere, but they are
characteristics within the reach OF all.
Keep going. There is no turn in the
road for one who stops travelling and
falls by the wayside.

Why SOUP IS TOO SALTY
Frequently Failure Because the
Proper Kind of Flavorino Was
Not Used In It.

The average housewife wonder why
she often over or under salts her
dishes when she knows" that she
salted them just right, as she always
did, and as the recipes called for.
The reason is just this: The season.
ing value of different brands of salt va
r1es widely. This is easily proved.
Take live slices of ripe tomatoes; ap-
ply equal parts of five makes of salt
upon the separate pieces. Eat rs soon
as salted. The difference in flavor,
permeation. rapidity and equality OF
dissolution and seasoning value are
readily detected.
A table salt should he fine. the crys
tails OF equal size, quickly soluble and
free from ingredients which absorb
moisture from the air. Large and
small crystals will not dissolve uni
formlH, consequently the fun salting
effect IS not obtained until the large
crystals are dissolved The quickly
soluble salt diltuses itself through the
food at once and gives un equality of
SAVIOR. Sticky salt is an intrusiv" nuls-
ance.
Failures in salting are largely due to
changing from one make of salt to an
other. Get the best grade, grow accus-
TONED Ia its use. stick to it.
