Saving Money in the Home
Little Tricks For Women
in Household Economics
By ELIZABETH LATTIMER.

NEARs ago. before women
started to do so many big
things in the wo>ld. every
woman belonged to a sewing circle
which used to meet from house
to house, and all the women
got together and swapped ideas
and told each other all the
things experience had taught
them in housekeeping. II re-
ports are true they gossiped a
little, too. Always, Of course, about
some one who didn't attend. Now
sdays we haven't any time for a
real sewing circle, but il occurred
TO me that every few days we
might have a make believe sewing
circle right in. this corner of the
magazine page OF The Times. No
one viii actually come, OF course, but
their letters will be here and we
can all sit down and read them and
&c viii be just like having a real
old-fashioned gathering with only
the helpful ideas left in and all
the gossip left out. And every one
Is invited.
