They keep the books, they do much
of the selling Of groceries and they have
added materially to the popularity Of
the Forbes market and grocery store

to establish his own slaughter house,
his knowledge Of cattle helped him
to choose the choice e,iinul's. by years
of experience he knew how to take
care of aieit.
Just as soon as his business got to
the place where it would stand the In.
vestment he purchased an ice machine,
he built cold storage. he put In show
cases where he could keep in cold sto-
rage eggs, butter, cheese, meats, oy-

plant been that he has never had an
order returned Sanitation Is perfect,
no piece Of meat Is ever exposed TO
dust or to the fly.
His old home at F and 9th southeast

HOUSEHOLD HELPS FROM
READER FRIENDS

R.. A. c.: mot long ago ono OF your
readers asked for directions for trim
ming for the top of knitted bedroom
slippers, and you asked any reader who
had such directions, to send them 10
you for publication. Here are mine:
Trimming for Knitted Bedroom Slip
pers: Two steel needles, number II or
10, are required. Put on FIVE stitches.
First Row: Knit plain. Second Row:
Put needle in first stitch as if TO knit,
but wind yarn around the left index
finger and between the two needles
three times; the fourth time the yarn
is used to knit off the stitch The sec
ond stitch is plain, and the third and
! fifth are the same as the first. Third
Row: Knit plain, knitting the loops off
as one stitch. Fourth Row: Same as
second row, except that you only make
loops in two stitches, knitting one,
three, and FIVE plain. Fifth Row: plain.
Alternate these rows 0rom first row TO
fifth row. until the piece OF wool trim
ming is long enough TO go around the
top of the slipper. Then sew its two
ends together and sew it on the slipper.
When finished, this band Of trimming
looks like plain knitting on the under
side, but has loops three-fourths of an
inch long all over the upper side OF
it."
Jeane: II recently noticed that one Of
your readers asked how TO do over hel
furniture. My relatives run store
. where they do over furniture, and thi'
is how they do it: Buy a good paint
