But Nepeese had spent three win

that her mothers husky was either

spending what they have earned.
1t is in the little things and small
leaks and wastes that, multiplied by
hundreds, make great wastes in many
homes. Example is the most impOr-
tant incentive in teaching children
thrift; if the mother would teach her
children wise spending, she must be
thrifty herself.
How many women leave the soap
in the dishpan and in the scrubbing
instead of using the soapshaker and
removing it when the water is suffi-
GENTLY sOapy? Small bits of soap
may be used up in the shaker or If
cake is used keep it in dish nearby
when needed.
When cooking over such heat as gas
or electricity use triplicate dishes on
one burner; in this way three foods
may be cooked with less expense.
Let US occasionally remind our
selves that nickel is the interest on
| dollar for year, and it is not par
simony to save, but something that we
should be proud that we can do, in
these days of high living.
Small bits of butter, too small to
seem of any value, may be placed to-
gether and in short while there will
be enough to season dish of vege-
tables. Cold coffee added to ginger
bread instead of water saves the cof-
ee, adds a flavor and thus improves
the cake. Cold coffee used with gela-
tin makes a delicious dessert, added
to spice cake instead Of milk, it Is an
Improvement.
A good motto to hang in every
kitchen, where there is much oppOr-
tunity for waste, is Let Nothing Be
Wasted"
What is true of the kitchen will fol-
low in the rest of the house. Care
and thoughtfulness will keep down
expenses.
China and all crockery is so expen-
sive now that care should be taken
Of the household supply. Dishes are
nicked by putting too many together
in the pan, striking them against the
water taps or handles of pans. Swing
the pans so that the handles are out
of the way when using pans with
handles.
1t takes but moments thought to
turn off the lights when leaving the
room, even for few minutes. If the
gas or electricity is turned off before
the dish is removed from the stove it
will save many a bill.

fore the close of navigation and with
export demand slack today for North
American wheat. a majority Of trad
ers here were disposed to sell rather
than buy. Moreover, reports at hand
told of cheaper and larger offerings of
Argentine wheat abroad and Of fine

and Australian crops be gathered
safely ample supplies would be in
sight for the remainder Of the crop

At times today, however, the De-

relative strength, some buying of De-
