Because of the demand for steel and the shortage of materials which go into the manufacture of enameled, galvanized and timed wares in use in American kitchens some thirty manufacturers of these wares have issued jointly an appeal to the house wife to prolong the life of her kitchen utensils. Three important 'don'ts" are among those laid down for the housekife to follow:
 Don't use coarse securing powders.
 Don't handle the wares carelessly.
 Don't heat the food in pan without water.
 s When it is recalled that more than $100, ,000, 900 is spent each year by American housewives for household utensils it is apparent that the part which the women of the home can play in national economy is no small one

IRONING BOARD HINT.

Most women find ironing a very back breaking and tiring occupation. It may be a. restful occupation, freed from tired back and aching feet. This is accomplished by sitting in a com fortable chair and placing the ironing board low enough down so that the knees pass easily under it. If one uses an electrically heated iron this is especially easy, as it is unnecessary to get up to change irons.

WHEN SHOES ARE WET.

wet shoes do you cast them aside cerelessly? Fit a pair of shoe trees into them and set them in a good. warm spot to dry. That is the proper thing to do. But be sure that you do not put them in very hot place, for wet leather which exposed to much heat frequently cracks. If for any reason you have no shoe trees at hand, try stuf1g the shoes with paper to keep them in shape.

The proper way to air bed, if you are opposed to removing the bed- clothes from the bed, is to throw the sheets over the footboards across d chair placed to keep them off the floor. and then lift the mattress in the middle, ti1ting it up so that the air passes under and over it. One-half hour of this will thoroughly air the bed, the windows to be open all the time, of course. In making up the bed, shake the sheets we'll as they are put in place. You will then have a tidy fresh bed, and an orderly room soon after you are dressed. This will make your housekeeping easy.

It is mistake to suppose that healthy complexion needs no care. It needs a good deal of care, in order to keep it healthy. A daily facial bath of soap and water is not enough, even to keep the skin clear, if one lives in a big city, where sot and dirt abound, for soap and water do not reach the inner pores, and unless these are treated to cleansing with cold cream, they will become 'clogged in short order. So the daily bath of cold cream or some other cleansing property is just as necessary to a healthy, clean condition as soap and water.
