"BRINCING HOME THE
BACON"

You can usually select between at
least three grades of bacon at the
market. There is a fancy breakfast
bacon, medium, and a standard or
fair grade, besides the dry-salt and
sweet-pickle bellies. The price of the
cheapest grade is about half that Of
the fancy breakfast bacon.
1t may be purchased very lean, me-
dunn, or fat, according to taste. A
good quality Is about half fat. The
cheaper grades have larger proper
ton of fat. Other points which influ-
ence grade are the texture, firmness
and color of the meat, size of cuts, and
the arrangement of lean and fat. The
fanciest bacon has several strips of
lean interspersed with thin layers Of
fat, while the fat in the cheaper grades
lies near one edge Of the meat.
Because bacon Is cured" meat, 1t is
often kept too carelessly, especially In
the home. By wrapping tightly in
heavy paper bacon can be kept reason
ably safe from mold. And If the pa
per is changed frequently 1t will not
faint other food In the refrigerator.
The great popularity of bacon is
doubtless due to its fine flavor, but
1t is also very nutritious, and the fat
in bacon Is said to be the most easily
digested Of all fats except butter.
If you can buy meat In some guam
tity, and are equipped to "slice your
own" 1t Is considerably cheaper that
way. Bacon cuts up best when very
cold. Slice down to the rind until you
have enough, then slip the knife be-
tween rind and fat.
Many housewives think of bacon as
an expensive meat, but only, think,
because fancy breakfast bacon Is or
dered for any and every purpose.
Some people would really prefer the
fatter grades and could reduce the cost
that way. Then when the use is for
seasoning, or cooking with vegetables,
the lower priced grades are often quite
as good. For dipping in flour TO fry,
the pure white unsmoked salt pork
makes a very delicious dish. and is
the cheapest or all.
Bacon lends itself to economies
quite as much as any meat Most
every shop has bacon ends" too short
to run in the sllcer, which are sold at
reduction. And nearly every pack
ing house puts out special cheap cut
like the squares" from the jowl. which
are very useful in the proper place.

HOW TO SAVE
MONEY WHEN
SHOPPING
By MRS. HA2LAND H. ALLEN
PAYING BY CHECK
20. 1922. Harland II. Allen.

Paying by check Is such q great
convenience that wonder that more
shoppers do not do it." said big de-
partment store manager. II was great
ly surprised to find that not one-fourth
of our women customers settle their
accounts that way"
There are many reasons why women
customers should make practice to
pay bills by checks. In the first place,
II does away with the risk of carrying
large sums of cash on your person. II
saves time, and the check Is record
of the money you spend. A cancelled
check Is the very best kind of receipt.
The check also furnishes a safe means
Of paying bill when the collector Is
unknown.
Every woman should know how to
make check properly and to keep her
account with the bank. When your
first deposit is made the bank will
give you check book containing blank
checks attached to stubs" Always
fill out the stub first, as that Is your
own record of the check torn out.
Each time deposit Is made at the
bank 1t should be added to the bal
ance shown on the stub, and each time
tracted. This enables you to know at
any time just what you have in the
bank. If the bank account becomes
low, great care must be used not to
write check for more than you have
on deposit. 1t not only Inconvenience
number of persons, including your
self, but Is also a criminal offense in
some states to deliberately overdraw
ones account.
A few other cautions should be men,
toned. Never leave blank spaces after
the amount so that 1t would be easy
for any one to alter your check. The
amount should be written both In
words and figures. II check has been
lost, notify the bank to stop payment"
When you wish to draw money from
the bank yourself, you simply make
check payable to the order of Cash"
and sign 1t. 1t is not wise to make
such check. or indorse others, before
reaching the bank lest they be lost on
the way and the finder cash them.
At the end Of each month the bank
will render a statement of your ac-
count, and the balance should agree
with your check stubs. The depositor
must remember that In case she has
more In the bank than her stubs show,
she still must not draw out the full
bank balance, as 1t means only that
some of the checks have not been
cashed.

COBWEBS

A cobweb is spiders web. spun by
a spider from material that Its own
body produces. These webs vary AZ
much as do the nests of birds. Such
webs are often found In the corners
of unused rooms. They collect the
dust and so become somewhat changed
in appearance, but the web was spun
by spiders and not produced by the
dust, which the web holds, or which
has lodged on the web. Fine threads
