HOW TO SAVE MONEY
WHEN SHOPPING
By MRS. HARLAND II. ALLEN

SEWING MACHINE.
NEEDLES

More housewives have trouble with
.sewing-machine needles than with any
other part of the machine. This is
generally because they go about buy
Ing the needles in the wrong way.
When purchasing sewing machine
needles you should always remember
that the different makes of sewing
machines call for needles of different
shapes and sizes, so that needle
that is suited for one type Of ma
chine will not do satisfactory work on
another Whenever possible, there
fore, you should Insist on getting
needles of reliable make, with the
name of the machine stamped right
on the shank of the needle.
You will not always be able to do
this, howey er, because nearly all fac
tories put out many machines Of the
same model under different names.
These names may be put on to suit
handling the machines in various
towns, and so will vary in different
communities. You can see that under
these conditions, unless you do get a
needle marked with the factory's
name, your chance of securing the
proper needle for your machine is go
ing to be very great
To meet this difficulty, a number Of
the neecle manufacturers have classi-
fed all the different makes Of ma
nh .frr -
them-and are putting out needle out
fits containing needles for all types
Of them.
The most important point about
which you should be concerned in buy
ing sewing-machine needles is TO get
the correct size. 1T is even worse to-
use needle that is too small, than
one too large. For with q larger
needle there is less wear on the
thread when sewing. You see, every
time stitch is made the thread has to
pass backward and forward through
the eye of the needle several times.
On power machines they always use
a special needle, larger at the eye
than In the blade, to Offset this fric-
ton.
Other points to watch for in per-
feet needle are:
That the eye is carefully polished,
so that there are no rough edges to
cut the thread
That the point be smooth and
sharp.
That the needle has a well-fiattened
place on one side of the shank, so
that it will fit perfectly into the ma
chine bar.

every day as new wells come in on
her lands.
Struggle at First
At first it was a hard struggle.
Miss Barnum had made and saved
a small stake as a professional en-
tertainer. But she was determined
to make it a big stake and she had
heard OF riches in oil.
SO she made her way to Texas.
Her first we'll was 'duster, : but
she was not TO be discouraged and
in the next attempt, when her
funds were running low. she
struck OIL
She bought and sold leases and
put down more wells. Now she is
one of the richest women Of the
southwest.
Tours Field Daily
Her daily routine calls for a
tour of the field each morning. In
this she dresses in cowboy boots,
corduroy breeches and short
jacket. She drives her own Gus
homemade motor car.
Evenings find her enjoying her
strictly feminine home. Then she
dons her Paris gown and shows no
