Being '.Just Plain
Kind Adds Much to
World Happiness

An old lady of simple ways was
speaking of another in the same
community who was noted for her
many good deeds, and she said of
her:
1.-The best thing you can say
about her is that she is just plain
kind. When you can say that about
body you We said one of the best
things it is possible to say about
them. -
Of all human attributes none are
Of greater value than the attribute
of simple human kindness. To be
always "just plain kind is to give
proof of the fact that one has a
Christian spirit, and kind heart
assures the doing of kind deeds.
One day two young women were
talking and one repeated something
she had heard that another had
said:
II do not believe that Mary ever
said that,' replied the other WON
an. "She is too kind ever to say
a thing like that. I don't believe
that any one ever heard Mary say
a downright unkind thing in he1
life. | wish | could guard my owl
tongue as we'll as she does her.
when it comes to what she say'
about others. -
Here was some one else who wa
"just plain kind and therefore ;
doer of good. One cannot be con
stantly kind without creating al
influence for good and being help
full in the world.
Never was there greater need o
all of us being ''just plain kind
than there is today. And whel
one adds forbearance to kindnes
an influence is created that add
much to the happiness and to tn
growing good of the world.

Household Hints

The best way to clean pan III
which milk has burned is to soak
it for several hours in cold water
and then to put it on the stove with
little washing soda IN water. Let
it boil for five or ten minutes, after
which time the. burned part can be
readily cleaned.
Do YOU know that if the sugar
and water for frosting are not cook
ed long enough, and therefore the
frosting is too soft, it can be
brought to the right consistency by
cooking it for little while IN
double boiler?
Do you know that carrots and
parsnips can be most easily pre-
pared by boiling with their skins
on? The skins then come off
readily. Of course the vegetables
should be we'll scrubbed before they
are boiled.
Do you know that the best way
to cook onions, cabbages, caull-
flowers or other strong vegetables
is to cook them in an uncovered
saucepan? One of the windows
should be open at the top. If you
follow this process the odor will not
