THRIFTY TIPS
FOR THE HOME.

ENAMEL WOODWORK: Enamel
woodwork can be kept clean very
easily in the kitchen by having
damp cloth handy and after dish
washing each day wipe all Nhe small
spots around drawers, cupboards and
doors. If you have wooden handles
which soil easily, replace them with
glass ones.
ELECTRIC BULBS: Before pur-
chasing electric bulbs that are Of
fered al exceptionally low prices, the
housewife should ask whether or not
they are refilled, as new bulb is
worth the difference in price, be-
dause it will last longer and gives
much better light.
TABLE: If you have very
small kitchen, with not enough space
for a table, a shelf that turns down
under a window is more convenient
It may be used for eating breakfast.
as we'll as many other practlcal
needs.
CHUCK ROAST: Chuck roast
makes very appe:tzing dish If the
bone is removed, the meat rolled and
tied with string and then roasted.
It makes a very inexpensive dinner.
BERRY JUICE: When Juice is
left ovor from fresh or canned Der
ries, add gelatin to it in the proper
ton of one level teaspoonful Of gel
attn to one pint of liquid. Soak the
gelatin in one-quarter cupfua of cold
Juice, and then add one and three
quarters cupfuls of hot juice. Turn
into a wet mould, chilli and it will
be found excellent as a dessert or
salad.
JARS: Jars that are 10 be filled
with boiling fruit should be paced
on about five thicknesses of towel
which has been wrung out of tepld
water. This will be found much
better than heating jars to be filed
Or placing silver knife in them.
SALT SETS: There are many
ways of bringing color into the
scheme of ones table decorations,
and ono of Ghe most novel effects is
obtained by using salt and pepper
sets made of Venetian glass in lovely
shades of rose, mulberry. green, pink
and red.
| MILK: If you have large guam,
thy of milk which you wish to keep
fresh for several days, scald it, pour
it into sterilized bottles with steril-
lied shoppers, cool and keep near the
ice. 1t will keep for several days
IRONING BOARD COVER: A
very good ironing board cover is
made of fela covered with sheetina
and shaped and finished with eyelets
and cords to lace it to the ironing
board.

WATER COMPANY
 SPENDS $20O,OO0
tBEssEMER BUREAU)

BESSEMER, Ala, Feb. 6.-Plans are being drawn for improvements to the Alabama Water company system at Bessemer, which will call for an expen- diture of more than $20O,O0O. Work will be started within few weeks.
 In addition to this expansion, which will consist manly of the installation of watermains to Hueytown and Dolo- mite, the records of the company show that during 1923, 800 additional homes were supplied with water within the present system. This was an increase of 112 per cent in the total water con- nections of the company.
 Work on the main to Hueytown and Dolomite will be started before April 1. The company will also erect an of flee building on their recently pur- chased lot adjoining the Bessemer gen. eral hospital at the same time.
 Another important item of construc- tion will be the extension of main to Brighton from the pump house at Hawkins Spring. This will give Besse- mer two main inlets from the spring instead of one, and will eliminate the possibility of any trouble in the present feed line impairing the service. Nhe present line runs by way of Lipscomb, entering the city from the south. The new line through Brighton will enter Bessemer from the north.
