Time and Money Saving in Home
By LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

able to cope with the Innumerable
household tasks.
Saving steps means saving strength
not by providing extra time, but by
conserving energy. Homemakcrs need
to put out their energy in worthwhile
duties, not In endless retracing Of steps
when good planning could make this
avoidable. AS for the saving of dollars
and pence. this comes by continual

| let's" 1. e., in the little ways that seem
so trivial at the time. but which in
accumulation amount to as much rs a
goodly sum spent on some really neceS-
| sary and much wanted article.
One of the little ways Of saving work
Is IN putting paper in the garbage can
each morning after washing 1t out. 1t
is little trouble to wash out the can
when left free from particles and COM
paratively dry, for newspaper will alb
sorb moisture. Dust a little washing
soda in the boiling water run into the
can, to purify 1t. Use a fiber or bristle
brush to wash the can. When DRY

An old stocking drawn halfway down
over the bristles of broom saves the
broom and II the broom is stood on the
handle or hung where 1t does not rest
on the brush end. another saving
results. Tear bed sheets down through
the center when the middle part gets
thin. Seam the edges and put wee
hem by machine on the torn edges.
This gives sheets a new lease of life.
These methods save pence. not dollars.
except by the accumulation OF the
saving.
Time is saved by Immediately rinsing
out teapot after using 1t. Use boiling
water, and let the pot dry upside down.
Wipe off q knife used in cutting a
lemon. an orange. or any acid frult.
BY using the kind of steel that never
rusts or gets discolored, this precaution
does not have to be observed.
The minutes saved when put together
are considerable If rubbers are dis
tinctly marked ''R" for right and Il"
for left, when first bought. for there Is
sure to be question. otherwise. when
ever the rubbers are worn, as to which

trouser hangers with clip ends, like clip
clothespins, and putting the rubbers
away on such hangers. clipping one rub
Der to each end. a search on the bot
tom of a closet to find mates will be
ended.
Another trifiing timesaver is to mark
the centre backs of frocks that have
detachable and washable collars. Put
the mark on the inside Of the frock
where it will not show. Mark the col
lars worn with the dress in the same
way. When the collars are laundered
getting them correctly placed is easy, for
mark to mark is the solution. Mark the
front of underwear when 1t is hard to
distinguish front from back. A wee
ribbon flower and a few embroidery
stitches suffice.

knows of the convenience of which,
