\ EATING the high cost Of living
= Is good deal like beating the
undertaker-a good many men

~ EAllNG the hlSn COST OF nVlng
r. is good deal like beating the
undertaker-a good many men
have tried It. but nobody has ever
boasted very long Of victory. Yet
something can be accomplished even
by the class hit hardest by the soar
ing prices OF necessities, men with a
salary or other fixed income Of mod
crate proportions. This is how one
man gets along and moreover Is able
to save little now and then as he
did before the war.
"My recipe for circumventing the
rising cost Of living is very simple"
he says. WHEN first reveal 1t to a
friend he usually considers 1t and it's
inventor too simple. so very simple as
to be foolish.
Briefly 1t is this: every time the
milk man or the grocer or the butcher
boosts his product, cut back by buy
ing a little less OF by using az substi-
tute an article Of the same food value
even II somewhat less tasty. OF
course the ultimate result Of such a
course would be that the consumer
would find himself living on air and
water, but 1t is not necessary to go
to extremes just yet.
Take the case OF milk, for instance.
When II was selling at pine cents a
quart We usually got three and some-
times four quarts a day for our four
children, for we realize that II Is n
very good and comparatively cheap
food for the growing youngsters. We
paid about 81 week for this alone
Now we are getting only two quarts
one day and three quarts the next and
we are paying only $2.25 instead of
$3.50. A little less In our tea and coffee
Not quite SO much, for the older chill
dren. and more economical use In
cooking did the trick.
Meat was a good deal Of stumbling
block at frst. hut we found after
some experimenting that We could
keep our hill down by the more liberal
use OF baked beans, macaroni, fish
soups, and the cheaper vegetables and
also by the purchase of less desirable
and sometimes even tougher cuts. But
we would rather chew on plenty Of
