Serving Tray Saves Housewives
Time and Strength in Many
Different Ways.

prepared by the United States Department
Of Agriculture.l
A serving tray on castors or wheels,
sometimes called a ''wheel-tray," "tea-
wagon" or "tea-cart," is a household
convenience that saves the housewives
time and strength in many ways. A
boy or man handy with simple tools
can make one; a number of women,
similarly skillful, have also made
them. In Virginia home recently a
very successful wheel-tray was made
out of an old washstand, utilizing the
large drawer, the top, the framework,
and other parts. To roll such tray
around conveniently, swivel castors
may be provided from some discarded
piece of furniture, small swivel wheels
or the small wheels of a baby car
riage or toy wagon. In the serving
tray illustrated the wheels were evil

wheel tray saves many trips between
the dining room and kitchen, both in
serving and in clearing away meals,

many dishes must be handled. The

DON'T WASH CAR
TOO FREQUENTLY
Expert on Automobile Finishes
Explains Why There Are So.
Many Shabby Machines.

Here is the opinion Of an expert
on automobile body finishes:
1.-THE idea that a car must be
washed every time dust has accumu-
lated on 1t is mistake.
Every time a car is washed the
varnish is raised slightly and the
enamel is dulled. 1t would seem nee
essary on account Of heavy road mud
to wash car, but 1t isn't.
Mud Gets on Rear.
"Mud generally gets on the rear
half of the body and the running
gear. Washing the running gear
will not materially affect the general
appearance Of car if it does lose it's
luster. 1t Is the body of car that
catches the eye. Sprayed mud on
car can easily be removed by the use
of soft cloth drawn lightly back and
forth over the surface until it crum-
bles away. It is not necessary to
use pressure. Light fluffing accom-
plishes the trick.
ANY white dust left on the finish
after this has been done will act as
fine polishing powder when a good
polish is used.
ITO keep finish in the best pos
sible condition, it is necessary to use
a cleaner once in 80 days to smooth,
clean and polish the surface. Clean
ers always contain securing powders,
but a preparation of this nature
should not be used as regular treat
ment, as once the dirt and grayness
have been removed from finish
cleaner will remove some of the good
finish in each application. Therefore,
as general wash and polish in one
application, preparation very light
in cleaning element, with preserva-
tive properties, should be used If
this treatment is followed, the finish
on an automobile will be deep in
shine and will not require refnishing
for months and sometimes years.
Keep Enamel Bright.
''The enamel on a car can be kept
in bright condition indefinitely, while
1t is only natural for varnish to keep
bright as long as there is life in it.
water is not always free from al
kali. Alkali will eat up varnish.
Soap cannot be made without the use
of alkali, and no matter how much
oil and tallow are used, the alkali
stays alive.
Drawing the chamois skin over an
enamel surface dulls it a little in
every movement and in the course of
three months of washing treatment,
the enamel surfaces on a car turn
gray. This never happens If a good
reliable polish is used instead"

Reindeer Meat as Food.

Reindeer meat is said to be better
than beef. And In the North the deer
flourish. 1t is said that the meat will
be eaten all over the United States in
few years. The federal government
has been successful in raising herds of
reindeer in Alaska. In 1892, I'll head
were imported from Siberia. There are
many herds at the present time, some
of them numbering 100000 heads.
More than 100000 have been killed for
their meat and skins. Recently the
Hudson's Bay company has leased no.
900 square miles of Arctic meadow
land for the purpose of raising rein
deer for profit. Already Loman &
Co., the largest private reindeer breed
ers in Alaska, have shipped several
hundred carcasses to the United
States. The muskox, too, combina-
ton of the COW and sheep, also thrives
in the North. Its flesh is tasty and
.nourishing.

AN ENGINE OvERHEATS
Don't Blame Cooling System as Mix
ture Furnished by carburetor
May Be Cause.

Don't always blame the cooling sys-
TEN when the engine overheats. The
mixture supplied by the carburetor
may be causing the trouble, perhaps
being too rich. Possibly the spark is
not advanced far enough; maybe
the oiling system is clogged or for
some reason is not properly lubricat-
ing the mechanism of the power plant
1t might even be possible that the fan
belt is slipping, thus preventing the
fan from doing its full duty. Then
there are the brakes. They may be
dragging because the bands are too
tight, condition which can be, dis
covered only by lacking up the rear
wheels and noting whether or not
they turn freely.

Undue wear on tires is caused by

Never dip rags or cotton waste into

1t is better to overoil the engine

A self-starter makes less noise

HOW TO RUN A CAR

There is in circulation what
purports to be an English trans
lation Of the Japanese rules Of
the road for motorcars' posted
in the central police station Of
Tokyo for the benefit of Eng
disappearing visitors to the
city. It deserves the widest
possible publicity. for it is
couched in such language as
will impress it on the memory
of all motorcar drivers. Here
it is:
"First-At the rise of the
hand policeman stop rapidly.
"Second-Do not pass him by
or otherwise disrespect him.
"Third-When a passenger Of
the foot hove in sight, tootle the
horn; trumpet at him melodi-
ously at first, but If he still OBJ
stacles your passage tootle him
with vigor and express by word
of the mouth the warning, Hi!
Hir
"Tourth-Beware the wander
ing horse that he shall not take
fright as you pass him by. Do
not explode an exhaust box at
him. Go soothingly by.
"Fifth-Give big space to the
festive dog that shall sport in
the roadway.
"Sixth - Avoid ENHANCEMENT
Of dog with your wheel spokes.
"Seventh-Go soothingly on
the grease mud, as there turks
the skid demon.
"Eighth-Press the brake Of
the foot as you roll around the
corner to save collapse and
tie-up."
We suggest, says the Phila-
delphia Ledger, that drivers in
clined to be careless cut this out
. and paste 1t on the wind shield
where they can see it all the
time.

HOLD IDEAL HIGH
Worthwhile Thoughts on Choos-
ing a Husband.
according to Minister, Woman Must
Demand That Mans Character
Shall BE of the Best.


Let American girls of the present
generation hold men to highest stand
ards and the men will be raised TO
them accordingly, stated the Rev.
Merritt Earl of the Homestead Meth
odist Episcopal church, Baltimore, in
recent sermon, slow to Choose u
Husband" /.
Never lower your ideal of the man
you want to marry he said. Keep
your standard high and we men will
follow. One reason people claim that
there are no good men today is be-
cause women do not expect, do not
demand, the best that is in men. The
worldly man, the spepdthrift, the Gig
arctic fiend, the dancer, the boozer,
the self-styled perfect man and nu-
merous others are exiled from the
candidate / would choose as future
mate were / the woman choosing. On
the other hand, your future husband
should be one whom you can trust
and one whom you can love in spite
Of poverty, should poverty be your
luck in married life.
".But how can / be sure he is the
right man?' most young women ask
today. To them say, give the matter
your utmost and careful consideration
before taking the step. When the man
makes the mistake in choosing the
wrong mate he has his lodge room and
club, both Of which he usually works
overtime. When she makes the mis-
take, only death can rectify it." Here
is the preachers warning:
"Never run after a man, and never
marry to reform him. Let him fight
to get you. If he doesn't think enough
of you to marry you he's not worth
the having. Reforming man is a
thankless job, so don't tackle it."
The requirements of the ideal hus-
band, according to the Rev. Mr.. Earl's
list, are that he possess: l. Good man.
ners. 2. Geniality Of soul. 8. Kind
ness. 4. Sympathy. 5. Industry 9.
Truthfulness. Z. Richness in character
rather than richness in money. s. A
home builder.
ana IL you want 10 De certain your
husband is mr. Right who will make
your life happy ever after, do not
marry, says the Rev. Mr.. Earl, the
man who is: l. Worldly. Temptations
will get him some day and will wreck
your matrimonial life, sooner or later.
Shun him. 2. Shiftless. No wife can
supply man with backbone. He must
be a live-wire and your bread winner.
8. A cigarette fiend. 4. A scoffer of
religion. s. A dancer. The fol-de-rof
dancer educates his heels rather than
his head Avoid him. 6. A boozer. His
habits will lead you to the almshouse.
2. The maker of excuses. Catch him
in lie and say goodnight and good
by before you marry him. 8. A spend
thrift and gambler. You'll get the
crust and he the bread.
"You smile and say this is pretty
high standard today" the preacher
added. "But tell you there are good
men in. this world. Don't be in too
much Of hurry to marry and you
will find One.'

Skidding is probably one Of

The only skid that can be con-

Slow, even turns, and slow,
